Each Settlement Warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.275per common share for a period of 24 months from the date of issue. The Debt will be definitively extinguished upon the issuance of the Settlement Warrants and the completion of the Cash Payment.

The Settlement Warrants and underlying common shares will be subject to a four month and one day hold period from the closing date under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.
