Each Unit will consist of one common share (a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant").

All securities issued bear a legend restricting resale until September 5, 2015.

Under the current private placement, current insiders purchased 750,000 Units which, assuming exercise of Warrants, results in 1,125,000 shares being issued to such insiders, representing 1.19% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The foregoing is subject to regulatory approval.

The Company would like to thank its Shareholders for their continued support.
