The FT Units will be offered for sale to purchasers resident in Canada, except Quebec, pursuant to the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption and/or in jurisdictions other than Canada that are mutually agreed to by the Company and Beacon. The FT Units issued under Listed Issuer Financing Exemption to Canadian subscribers will not be subject to a hold period in Canada (except to the extent the TSX Venture Exchange's four-month hold period applies to the FT Units issued to certain subscribers, including directors, officers and 10% shareholders of the Company, if any).
