The Company has made an application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") in respect of the Warrant Extensions. The Warrant Extensions are subject to the approval of the TSXV.
A total of 3,797,660 warrants are held by parties who are considered to be "related parties" of the Company. Therefore, the amendment of these warrants constitutes a "related party transaction" as contemplated by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special Transactions, and TSXV Policy 5.9 - Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special Transactions. However, the exemptions from formal valuation and minority approval requirements provided for by these guidelines can be relied upon as the fair market value of the warrants held by insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company. Upon receipt of the approval of the TSXV of the warrant extensions, a material change report in respect of the warrant extension will be filed by the Company.
