The Private Placement will close following the Share Consolidation. Subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, the Company will pay finder's fees to Canaccord Genuity and Raymond James. The finder's fees are equal to 5% of the gross proceeds of common shares sold to Canaccord Genuity and Raymond James and are payable in either cash or by issuing shares of Christopher James.
