Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share of the Company (each, an "FT Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each FT Share is designated as a "flow-through share" for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act"). Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one Warrant.
