Any unexercised warrants shall automatically expire at the end of the accelerated exercise period.

The company has granted to the underwriters an option to increase the size of the offering by up to an additional number of units, and/or the components thereof, that in aggregate would be equal to 15 per cent of the total number of units to be issued under the offering, to cover overallotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes, exercisable at any time and from time to time up to 30 days following the closing of the offering.

The net proceeds from the offering will be used for exploration and development activities, working capital, and other general corporate purposes.
