On the occasion of the private placement in the amount of CA$15M with two funds represented bySentient Executive GP III, Limited ("Sentient") - an independent private equity fund that manages over US $1.3 billion invested in the natural resource sector – the Company's management agreed to recommend the appointment of a Sentient representative to the Company’s Board of Directors.

(17 CFR 229.404(a)).

Mr. Marchand will remain on the Board of Director as an independent director.
