The Company also announces that it has amended the terms of its private placement announced on December 4, 2023.  The proposed private placement will consist of the issuance of up to 16,000,000 units (the “Units” and each, a “Unit”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit for gross proceeds of $800,000.  Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”) with each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional share of the Company at a price of $0.06 per share for 3 years from the date of issuance (the “Private Placement”).

Insiders of the Company will be subscribing, in the aggregate, for up to 4 million Units for gross proceeds of up to $200,000. The issuance of Units to insiders pursuant to the Private Placement will be considered related party transactions within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company relies on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that participation in the Private Placement by insiders will not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company’s market capitalization.

Final approval of the listing is subject to the Company satisfying certain customary conditions required by the TSXV, including closing of the Private Placement. The Company expects that it will satisfy all such conditions to list, and will provide an update concurrent with the Private Placement closing, including the date for commencement of trading as confirmed by the TSXV.
