The Warrants entitle their holders to purchase an aggregate of 5,550,000 Common Shares at an exercise price of US$0.45 per Common Share on or before November 1st, 2018. The Warrants are subject, at the Company's discretion, to an accelerated exercise after six months following the last closing of the Offering, if the VWAP of the Common Shares is equal to or greater than US$0.90 for a period of 30 days.
The terms of the Notes are fully disclosed in the Company's news release dated July 4th, 2013.
Richard Quesnel, the Company's Executive Chairman, has subscribed for eight Units, resulting in US$2.0 Million in principal amount of Notes and Warrants to purchase 4,444,444 Common Shares.

In connection with this related party transaction, the Company is relying on the formal valuation and minority approval exemptions of respectively subsection 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 as the fair market value of the portion of the Offering subscribed by Mr. Quesnel does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
