Further, pursuant to the Private Placement, the Company issued to the agent,
Fraser Mackenzie Limited (the "Agent"), the Agent's Warrants, each
Agent's Warrant exercisable into a unit, consisting of one common share of the
Company and one-half of one warrant (the "Underlying Agent's
Warrant"). The Agent's Warrants and any Underlying Agent's Warrants issued
are also subject to the above-noted acceleration and the Company has elected to
provide notice of such acceleration to the Agent.
Effective today, the Warrants issued to the purchasers pursuant to the Private
Placement, the Agent's Warrants issued to the Agent and any Underlying Agent's
Warrants issued are set to expire at 4 p.m. (Vancouver time) on May 26, 2011.
