The Facility may be pre-paid without penalty provided that certain conditions are satisfied and matures on December 31, 2016.

In connection with the Refinancing, the Company has also issued to the Lender, on a non-brokered private placement basis (the "Private Placement"), a 10% Series C-2 secured subordinated convertible debenture (the "Debenture") in the aggregate principal amount of $1 million, which is governed by the existing indenture between the Company and Equity Financial Trust Company, as trustee, and which has the same terms as the currently outstanding 10% Series C secured subordinated convertible debentures of the Company, including a maturity date of September 30, 2016.

The Facility and the Private Placement remain subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, the Debentures and the common shares of the Company issuable upon the conversion or redemption thereof are subject to a hold period expiring on August 1, 2016.
