Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.30 per Common Share for a period of two (2) years from the closing of the Offering.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid certain eligible persons (the "Finders") a cash commission of $14,517, equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering delivered by Finders and issued a total of 96,780 broker warrants ("Broker Warrants"), equal to 6% of the Units delivered by Finders pursuant to the Offering.
