In accordance with the policies of the TSXV, the Common Shares are currently halted from trading and are expected to remain so until completion of the Transaction. In due course, the parties to the Transaction will issue a further comprehensive news release announcing the closing of the Transaction and the date on which the Common Shares will resume trading.
Currently, the Company has a total of 6,200,000 Common Shares are issued and outstanding and after the Consolidation, the Company will have 3,100,000 issued and outstanding Common Shares.

Shareholders who hold Common Shares through a securities broker or other intermediary and do not have Common Shares registered in their name will not be required to take any measures with respect to the Consolidation and Name Change. No fractional shares will be issued as any fractional share will be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Company anticipates the effective date of the Consolidation and Name Change to take place on or before the Anticipated Closing Date.
