All securities issued with respect to the Offering will are subject to a hold period of four months
and one day in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Certain directors, officer and a control person to the Company participated in the Offering and
purchased a total of 3,933,300 Units. As such directors , officer and control person are related
parties within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61- 101 (Protection of Minority Security
Holders in Special Transactions) of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the O ffering
constituted a related-party transaction under MI 61-101. The Company is relying on exemptions
from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements in sections 5.5(c) and
5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 as the transaction is a distribution of securities for cash consideration and
neither the Company nor the related part ies have knowledge of any material information
concerning the Company or its securities that has generally not been disclosed, the Company
trades on the CSE, the fair market value of the securities to be distributed does not exceed
$2,500,000, the Company has one or more independent directors and two thirds of those
independent directors have approved the transaction. A material change report will be filed fewer
than 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering. The Company did not file a material change
report 21 days before closing of the offerings as the details of the insider participation were not
known at that time.
Early warning disclosure
Immediately prior to the acquisition of the Units pursuant to the Offering, Zimtu Capital Corp.
(“Zimtu”) beneficially owned 2,114,500 common shares, representing 40.01% of the issued and
outstanding common shares of the Company. As a result of the Offering and the acquisition of
the Units, Zimtu beneficially now owns 3,714,500 common shares of the Company, representing
24.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
This press release and Zimtu’s corresponding early warning report, which is expected to be filed
on SEDAR+ in the near term, constitute the required disclosure pursuant to Section 5.2 of National
Instrument 62-104 Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids . The requirement to file an early warning

report was triggered because the acquisition by Zimtu of the Units as part of the Offering and the
completion of the Offering decreased Zimtu’s beneficial ownership of the common shares by
15.7% as compared with the early warning report filed by Zimtu in connection with its earlier
acquisition of common shares. The common shares acquired in connection with the Offering are
being acquired by Zimtu for investment purposes and in the future, it may discuss with
management and/or the board of directors of the Company any of the transactions listed in
clauses (a) to (k) of Item 5 of Form F1 of National Instrument 62-103 -- The Early Warning System
and Related Take-over Bid and Insider Reporting Issues and it may further purchase, hold, vote,
trade, dispose or otherwise deal in the securities of the C ompany, in such manner as it deems
advisable to benefit from changes in market prices of the Company's securities, publicly disclosed
changes in the operations of the Company, its business strategy or prospects, or from a material
transaction of the C ompany, and it will also consider the availability of funds, evaluation of
alternative investments and other factors.
The early warning report that will be filed on SEDAR+ in respect of the Offering will satisfy the
requirement of Section 5.2 of NI 62- 104 to have the early warning report filed by an acquiror, in
this case by Zimtu, with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the jurisdictions in which
the Company is a reporting issuer and which contains the information with respect to the foregoing
matters and the information required by section 3.1 of National Instrument 62 -103 -- The Early
Warning System and Related Take- Over Bid and Insider Reporting Issues, which includes the
information required by Form 62- 103F1 -- Required Disclosure under the Early Warning
Requirements.
A copy of the early warning report filed by Zimtu in connection with the brokered offering will be
available under the Company's profile on the SEDAR+ website.
