Terms and Conditions of Proposed Qualifying Transaction

On April 1, 2015, Turquoise entered into the Definitive Agreement with Vigil and Subco whereby Turquoise has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Vigil. Under the terms of the Agreement, each shareholder of Vigil will receive one common share of Turquoise in exchange for each common share of Vigil. The Transaction, if completed, will be structured as a three-cornered amalgamation whereby Vigil will amalgamate with Subco (the "Amalgamation").

Prior to closing of the Transaction, Vigil will complete a non-brokered private placement financing of 2,142,857 units at a price of $0.35 per unit for gross proceeds of $750,000 (the "Vigil Financing"). Each unit will consist of one common share of Vigil and one share purchase warrant, with each share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional common share of Vigil at a price of $0.60 per share for a period of three years from the date of issue, subject to a right of acceleration (which is on the same terms as the warrants issued under the Exchange Short Form Offering Document as set forth below). Vigil will pay a finders' a fee of up to 10% of the gross proceeds of the offering and issue finders' options up to 10% of the number of units sold under the offering.

Following closing of the Vigil Financing, Vigil will have issued and outstanding of 11,642,857 common shares.

Immediately prior to the Amalgamation, Turquoise will consolidate its common shares on the basis of one post-consolidation Turquoise common share for every 3 pre-consolidation Turquoise common shares (the "Consolidation"). Turquoise currently has 5,012,000 common shares issued and outstanding. Following the Consolidation, the issued and outstanding common shares would be approximately 1,670,666.

Following closing of the Transaction, Turquoise plans to change its name to "Vigil Technologies Inc." and the common shares of Turquoise will be listed on the Exchange under a new trading symbol.

The Transaction does not constitute a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" as defined in Exchange Policy 2.4 and consequently Turquoise is not required to obtain shareholder approval for the Transaction except for the Consolidation.

Exchange Short Form Offering Document Financing

In conjunction with closing the Transaction, Turquoise will be completing a proposed brokered offering, by way of Exchange Short Form Offering Document, of a minimum of 4,285,715 units (each a "Unit") and up to a maximum of 5,714,285 Units of Turquoise at a price of $0.35 per Unit for minimum gross proceeds of $1,500,000 and up to a maximum of $2,000,000 (the "Offering").

Each Unit will consist of one post-Consolidation common share of Turquoise and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each a "Warrant"), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder an additional post-Consolidation common share of Turquoise at a price of $0.60 per post-Consolidation common share for a period of 36 months from the closing date of the Offering. Turquoise will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants if, at any time, the closing price of Turquoise's common shares is equal to, or greater than $0.70 for 15 consecutive trading days after the date that is four months and a day following the closing of the Offering. In the event of acceleration, the expiry date will be accelerated to a date that is 30 days after the date Turquoise gives notice to the Warrant holders that it has elected to exercise this acceleration right.

In connection with the Offering, Turquoise has entered into a letter of engagement with Wolverton Securities Ltd. ("Wolverton") whereby Wolverton has agreed to act as lead agent for the Offering. Turquoise has agreed to pay Wolverton a commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds of any Units sold under the Offering. At the option of Wolverton, the commission may be paid in cash or by the issuance of Units or a combination thereof. Wolverton will also be granted non-transferable option (the "Agent's Option") to purchase up to 10% of the number of Units sold under the Offering at an exercise price of $0.35 per Unit for a period of 5 years from the date of closing of the Offering. Each Unit will consist of one post-Consolidation common share of Turquoise and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant (an "Agent Warrant"). The Agent's Warrants will be on the same terms as the Warrants. In addition, Wolverton will also receive a corporate finance fee of $30,000 plus GST (the "Corporate Finance Fee"), of which $15,000 has been paid. At the option of Wolverton, the balance of the Corporate Finance Fee may be paid in cash or by the issuance of Units or a combination thereof.
