The Corporation proposes to issue up to 4 million units (the "Units") at a price of C$0.85 per Unit.

Pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange and to Multilateral Instrument 61-101, the private placement is classified as a "related party transaction" as Elmag Investments Inc. and Sheldon Inwentash and joint actors, shareholders who each own or have control and direction over more than 10% of the outstanding shares of the Corporation, intend to subscribe for an as yet undetermined amount of the private placement. The private placement was unanimously approved by the directors of the Corporation who have determined that exemptions from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 are available as the fair market value of the securities being issued does not exceed 25% of the Corporation's market value.
