Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.30 for a period of 24 months following the completion of the Offering, provided, however, that if the daily volume weighted average trading price of Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for any 10 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $0.47, the Company may, upon providing written notice to the holders of the Warrants, accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to a date that is 10 days following the date of such notice.
In connection with the Offering, the Agents received a cash commission of $300,960 and were issued 1,368,000 compensation options ("Compensation Options"), with each Compensation Option exercisable into one Common Share at the Offering Price for a period of 24 months following the completion of the Offering.
The Offering was completed pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption (under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions), and the securities issued to purchasers in the Offering are not subject to a hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws.
