                  The
      offering consists of flow-through units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.08

                    The
      “Purchased Securities” herein are Units. Each Unit consists of one
      previously unissued flow-through common share, as presently constituted (a
      “Share”) and one non flow-through share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”) of
      the Issuer. Each Warrant will entitle the holder, on exercise, to purchase
      one additional common share of the Issuer (a “Warrant Share”) for a period
      of four  years from the date of issue of the warrant at the
      price of $0.07 per Warrant Share for the first year, at the price of $0.20
      per warrant share for the second year, $0.20 per warrant share for the
      third year and $0.20 per warrant share for the fourth
      year.

                  The
      Warrants will be issued and registered in the name of the purchasers or
      their nominees.

                   

                  The
      Warrants will be non-transferable.

                   

                  The
      certificates representing the Warrants will, among other things, include
      provisions for the appropriate adjustment in the class, number and price
      of the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants upon the
      occurrence of certain events, including any subdivision, consolidation or
      reclassification of the Issuer’s common shares, the payment of stock
      dividends and the amalgamation of the Issuer.

                   

                  The
      issue of the Warrants will not restrict or prevent the Issuer from
      obtaining any other financing, or from issuing additional securities or
      rights, during the period within which the Warrants may be
      exercised.

                   

                  Once
      resale restrictions on the shares having expired and upon the Company’s
      shares trading at or above a weighted average trading price of $0.40 for
      10 consecutive trading days the Company may give notice that the Warrants
      will expire 30 days from the date of providing such notice in writing to
      Warrant holders and via a news release.
