The offering comprises 8,970,000 units of the Company (the "Units") at the price of C$1.45 per Unit (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds in the amount of C$13 million (the "Offering").

Each Unit is comprised of 1 common share of the company and 1 half warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable at an exercise price of C$2.00 per common share, for a period of 36 months following the closing of the Offering.
The Company has granted the Underwriters an option to purchase 1,345,000 additional Units at the Offering Price to raise additional gross proceeds of up to C$1,950,250 for a period of 30 days after and including the Closing Date to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. If the option is exercised in its entirety, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering to the Company will be C$14,950,250.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for the partial repayment of the Company's loans that are due in December 2016 and for general corporate purposes. The Offering is anticipated to close on or about July 25, 2016 (the "Closing Date") and will be subject to customary conditions and receipt of regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX. The Company and the Underwriters anticipate entering into a formal underwriting agreement regarding the Offering that will replace the Agreement, on or about July 18, 2016.
The Units to be issued under the Offering in Canada will be offered by way of a prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus") which is expected to be filed on July 18, 2016 to accompany the previously filed short form base shelf prospectus of the Company, in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.
