Pursuant to the offering, CSV will issue a total of up to 30 million units at a price of half of one cent per unit. Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share and one warrant exercisable at $0.005 for a period of one year. The Company will undertake to consolidate it shares on a minimum of ten (10) old shares for one (1) new share basis prior to February 20, 2018. CSV plans to seek a discretionary waiver from the five-cent minimum pricing requirement by the TSX Venture Exchange pursuant to the TSX-V bulletin dated April 7, 2014. There is no assurance that the TSX-V will approve this financing. A finder's fee may be paid by the Company, in connection with the offering, in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V.

The total acquisition cost to a subscriber under the existing shareholder exemption cannot exceed $15,000 unless that subscriber has obtained advice from a registered investment dealer regarding the suitability of the investment. There is a minimum subscription amount of $3,000. Any existing shareholder interested in participating in the offering should contact the Company.
If subscriptions received for the offering based on all available exemptions exceed the maximum offering amount of $150,000, 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 oversubscribed.
