Each Unit will be priced at $0.09 and will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a " Share") at an exercise price of $0.15 per Share for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date. Each FT Unit will be priced at $0.11 and consist of one flow-through common share in the capital of the Company (a "FT Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "FT Warrant").
