("IBK"), under which IBK has agreed to act as agent, on a best efforts basis, for brokering a private placement of up to 20,000,000 units ("Units") of Honey Badger at a price of $0.15 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit will consist of two flow-through common shares of Honey Badger ("FT Shares"), one non flow-through common share of Honey Badger and three non flow-through common share purchase warrants ("Warrant(s)").

Funds raised from the private placement will be used to finance an upcoming drill program and for further exploration work on the Sagar Property located in Northern Quebec. Proceeds will also be used for acquisition costs of the Sagar Property, brokerage commissions, legal fees and for general working capital purposes.
The proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares comprised in the Units will be used to incur eligible Canadian Exploration Expenses, as defined under the Income Tax Act (Canada) that will be renounced in favour of the subscribers with an effective date of December 31, 2014.
As part of the Agreement, IBK is entitled to a cash commission of 9% of the gross proceeds raised under the Offering as well as Broker Warrants (the "Broker Warrants") equal to 10% of the aggregate Units issued.
