It is anticipated that, in the next few days, the Company will file a final base PREP prospectus and a supplemented PREP prospectus for its Offering of Shares. As soon as possible after the final base PREP prospectus is cleared by the relevant securities regulatory authorities and a supplemented PREP prospectus is filed, TSX will post the Shares for trading on an "if, as and when issued" basis under the trading information set out herein. Before the Shares are posted for trading on such basis, TSX will issue a trader note confirming both the pricing and the expected closing date for the Offering. If and when the Offering closes, the Shares will be listed on TSX. |

("CDS"); and (ii) all trades in "LIRC" for each of the two trading days preceding the closing date will be for special settlement two business days after the trade date and will appear on the Settlement Report from CDS. If the Offering does not close, all of the "if, as and when issued" trades will be cancelled. No securities will be delivered and no money will be owed by purchasers to sellers. Parties who are entitled to receive Shares under the Offering may sell such securities in the "if, as and when issued" market without being subject to restrictions on short sales. Parties who are not entitled to receive Shares under the Offering must comply with the short sale rule in all respects for any sales they make in the "LIRC" "if, as and when issued" market. If and when the Offering closes, there will be no further trading in "LIRC" on an "if, as and when issued" basis and the Shares issued at such closing will trade on a regular settlement basis. |
