Closing of the Offering is anticipated to be completed concurrently with the closing of the Proposed Transaction.

All securities issued will be subject to a four-month hold period pursuant to securities laws in Canada. All subscribers to the Offering will be at arm’s length to the Company, PlantFuel and the Proposed Transaction.  The Company may pay finder’s fees on a portion of the Offering, subject to compliance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange and applicable securities legislation.

The parties are continuing their due diligence in connection with the Proposed Transaction, which remains subject to the entering into of a definitive agreement and other customary closing conditions, including the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange.
