Cloud Securities Inc. the following fees: (1) a cash commission totaling $33,075, being up to 7% of the
gross proceeds raised under the Offering from investors introduced to the Company from such finders,
and (2) 367,500 non-transferable common share purchase warrants of the Company (“Finders’

requirements under applicable securities laws. The securities issued and issuable pursuant to the
Offering are subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of closing. The Warrants
and Finders’ Warrants will not be listed for trading. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from
the Offering to complete its upcoming NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate and for general corporate
and working capital purposes.
The Offering has received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”).

transaction" under the policies of the TSXV and within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61 -101
– Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the directors of the Company have determined that the FM's participation in the Offering
will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101
in reliance on the exemptions set forth in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as
neither the fair market value of the shares purchased on behalf of FM nor the consideration paid by
him exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change
report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the participation by FM was
not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for
sound business reasons.
