The Offering

The maximum Offering is 16,666,666 units for gross proceeds of $500,000. The Offering is not subject to any minimum aggregate subscription.

A finder’s fee of cash, shares or finder’s warrants, or a combination thereof, may be paid to eligible finders with respect to any portion of the Offering that is not subscribed for by existing shareholders.

Assuming the Offering is fully subscribed, the Company intends to allocate the net proceeds as follows: approximately $220,000 for current liabilities and the balance of approximately $280,000 for general working capital purposes.

Although the Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering as described above, the actual allocation of net proceeds may vary from the uses set forth above, depending on future operations or unforeseen events or opportunities. If the Offering is not fully subscribed, the Company will apply the proceeds of the Offering to the above uses in priority and in such proportions as the board of directors and management of the Company determine is in the best interests of the Company.

The aggregate acquisition cost to a subscriber under the Existing Shareholder Exemption cannot exceed $15,000 (500,000 Units) unless that subscriber has obtained advice from a registered investment dealer regarding the suitability of the investment.

If subscriptions received for the Offering based on all available exemptions exceed the maximum Offering amount of $500,000, subscriptions will be accepted at the discretion of the Company such that it is possible that a subscription received from a shareholder may not be accepted by the Company if the Offering is over-subscribed.
