Through the completion of a private placement with Lithium Energi Exploration Inc., Arena Investors LP, through certain investment funds managed by it, acquired ownership of 15 million units of Lithium Energi at a price of five cents per unit for aggregate consideration of $750,000.

Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of Lithium Energi and one full common share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to acquire an additional share at an exercise price of 5.5 cents for a period of 60 months from the date of issuance.

The acquisition was completed pursuant to the terms and conditions of a definitive subscription agreement between Lithium Energi and the acquiror regarding a non-brokered private placement of an aggregate of 82,248,115 units for aggregate consideration of $4,112,405.76 ($3-million (U.S.) based on an exchange rate of $1 to 72.95 U.S. cents).

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the subscription agreement, the financing shall be completed in two tranches, with the acquisition representing the first tranche and having closed concurrently with signing of the subscription agreement. Completion of the second tranche of the financing remains subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the completion of certain financing conditions set forth in the subscription agreement.

The acquiror, an asset management firm, acquired control and direction over the subject shares and warrants through certain investment funds managed by it, including Arena Origination Co. LLC, Arena Special Opportunities Fund LP, Arena Special Opportunities Partners II LP, Arena Special Opportunities Partners I LP, Arena Special Opportunities Partners (Cayman Master) I LP, Arena Special Opportunities Partners (Cayman Master) II LP, Arena Finance Markets LP and Arena Special Opportunities (Offshore) Master LP. As a result of the acquisition, the percentage ownership controlled or directed by the acquiror increased by greater than 2 per cent from the last early warning report filed.

Immediately prior to the completion of the acquisition, the acquiror owned, controlled or directed 32,367,217 shares and 37,068,838 common share purchase warrants, representing approximately 21.2 per cent of the issued and outstanding shares on a non-diluted basis and 36.6 per cent on a partially diluted basis (assuming the exercise of all warrants under the control or direction of the acquiror) prior to completion of the acquisition. Pursuant to the acquisition, the acquiror acquired direction and control over an additional 15 million shares and 15 million warrants. Immediately upon completion of the acquisition, the acquiror, through the funds, exercised control and direction over an aggregate of 47,367,217 shares and 52,068,838 warrants, representing approximately 28.3 per cent of the issued and outstanding shares on a non-diluted basis and 45.3 per cent of the issued and outstanding shares, as confirmed by the issuer, calculated on a partially diluted basis (assuming the exercise of all warrants under the control or direction of the acquiror).

The acquisition was conducted through a private placement and not through the facilities of any stock exchange. The holdings of securities of Lithium Energi by Arena and the funds are managed for investment purposes, and Arena could increase or decrease the funds' investments in Lithium Energi at any time or continue to maintain its current position, depending on market conditions or any other relevant factor.
