The Company further announces that, subject to receiving the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange“), it intends to amend (the “Amendment“) the exercise price of 7,843,137 common share purchase warrants originally issued by the Company pursuant to the closing of the equity offering on June 9, 2020 (the “Original Warrants“) exercisable into an equal amount of common shares in the capital of the Company (“Common Shares“) at an exercise price of $0.25 (the “Warrants”) to an exercise price of $0.155 (the “New Exercise Price“).

Each Original Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one common share of the company at a price of $0.25 per common share. A total of 7,843,137 Original Warrants remain outstanding as of this date and are scheduled to expire on June 8, 2022.

The Corporation is seeking the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange to reduce the exercise price of the Amended Warrants to $0.155 per share or such other price as may be acceptable to the TSX Venture Exchange. As per Exchange Policy 4.1, the Amendment will require the incorporation of an accelerated expiry provision such that the remaining exercise period of the Warrants will be reduced to 30 days if, for any 10 consecutive trading days during the unexpired term of such of the Warrants, the closing price of the Common Shares exceeds the New Exercise Price by 25% or more (which would be a trading price of $0.1875 per Common Share or higher), with the 30-day expiry period commencing on the day the Company either: (i) disseminates a press release or (ii) sends a written notice to the holders of the Warrants, advising of the commencement of the exercise period”.

Insiders of the Company hold 1,435,300 or approximately 18.3% of the Warrants issued pursuant to the June 9, 2020 private placement.

Certain of the Warrants are held by parties who are considered “related parties” of the Company. Therefore, the amendment of these Warrants constitutes a “related party transaction” as contemplated by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special Transactions and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 – Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special Transactions. However, since the amendment applies to all of the warrants equally on a per warrant basis, and no related party will receive a collateral benefit in connection with the amendment, the restrictions imposed under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 do not apply to the amendment.
