Western Star intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement of up to eight million units of securities of the company at a purchase price of eight cents per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $800,000. Each unit will comprise one common share in the capital of the company and one whole common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share at an exercise price of 15 cents at any time up to 36 months following issuance.

Proceeds will be used for general working capital and, more importantly, to define new drill targets on the company's 100-per-cent-owned, high-grade, drill-permitted Western Star property in British Columbia and its high-grade Mount Anderson property in the Yukon.

Insiders may participate in the placement and, as such, their participation in the private placement is a related-party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. Finders' fees in connection with the offering may be payable in accordance with the policies and subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange. All shares issued in connection with the offering will be subject to a statutory hold period with the following release terms: one-third four months and one day after the closing of the offering, one-third eight months following the date of issuance, and one-third 12 months following the date of issuance. Completion of the offering is subject to the approval of the CSE. Any participation by insiders in the offering will constitute a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions but is expected to be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.
