If at any time after the closing date, the closing price for the common shares on the TSX-V trades above $0.75 for 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may provide written notice of acceleration of the expiry date of the finder warrants.

The flow-through shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
