Each unit consists of one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional common share at $0.075 in the first year and at $0.10 in the second year.

The first tranche consisted of 2,050,000 units for gross proceeds of $102,500.00 (300,000 units were non-flow-through units for proceeds of $15,000 and 1,750,000 units were flow-through units for proceeds of $87,500). A finder’s fee of $6,125 and 122,500 finder’s warrants was paid with respect to the first tranche to PI Financial Corp. Each finder’s warrant entitles the holder to purchase a non-flow-through unit with the same terms as the private placement units at $0.05 per unit for two years. The shares issued are subject to a four month hold dated February 25, 2017.

The final tranche consisted of 1,380,000 units for gross proceeds of $69,000 (160,000 units were non-flow-through units for proceeds of $8,000 and 1,220,000 units were flow-through units for proceeds of $61,000).

All shares issued in the final tranche will be subject to a four month hold dated April 30, 2017.
