The Warrant Expiry Date may, at the Company's option, be accelerated at any time after the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date provided that the Shares have closed at a price of $0.55 or higher for a period of 15 consecutive trading days on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"), provided that: (i) the Company disseminates a press release providing notice of its intention to accelerate the Warrant Expiry Date; and (ii) the accelerated Warrant Expiry Date is not earlier than the 30th day after the date of dissemination of such press release.

In addition to the Private Placement, the Company announces that it intends to raise gross proceeds of $400,000 through the sale of various convertible debentures with a term of two years and an interest rate of 10% per year compounded annually and a conversion price of $0.15 per Share.
