Each Unit of the Offering is comprised of one common share of the Corporation (each a "Share") and one share purchase warrant (each a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one additional Share in the capital of the Corporation at a price of $0.05 per Warrant for a period of two (2) years from the date the Units are issued.
The pricing of the Offering and Debt Settlement are based on the temporary relief measures established by the TSXV on April 8, 2020, and extended September 16, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The securities will be offered to qualified purchasers in reliance upon exemptions from prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities legislation. A finder's fee in cash or shares may be paid to eligible finders in relation to this financing. Proceeds from this financing will be used for general operating purposes. This Offering is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").
The offered securities will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to or for the account or benefit of U.S. persons, except in certain transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act.
