The Existing Shareholder Offering comprises up to 6,666,666 WC Units. The Existing Shareholder Offering will be open for a period of up to twenty eight (28) days, expiring on the earlier of November 16, 2017 and the closing of the WC Offering. There is no minimum offering. The maximum amount to be raised under the Existing Shareholder Offering is $400,000. All securities issued pursuant to the Existing Shareholder Offering are subject to a statutory four month hold period and regulatory approval.

The particulars of the WC Units are set out above.

The Company intends to use the proceeds raised under the Existing Shareholder Offering of up to $400,000 to maintain its existing operations, activities and assets. The use of proceeds of the Offering set out above will be adjusted pro rata subject to the funds raised on the Existing Shareholder Offering.

The Existing Shareholder Offering is open to all existing shareholders of the Company resident in Canada until the earlier of November 16, 2017 and the closing of the WC Offering. Shareholders interested in participating in the Existing Shareholder Offering should contact, or have their registered broker contact, Yvonne So, assistant to Bill Johnstone, Assistant Corporate Secretary of the Company, at yso@grllp.com or (416) 865-6789 to obtain a copy of the subscription agreement for WC Units. Requests should be received by no later than November 9, 2017 so that subscription agreements can be signed and funds can be received by the Company by no later than November 14, 2017.

In the subscription agreements, subscribers will be required to represent that they held common shares of Romios on the Record Date and will continue to hold common shares on closing, indicate the total number of WC Units they wish to subscribe for at the price of $0.06 per WC Unit and provide funds (certified cheque or wire transfer) for the purchase of the WC Units. The Existing Shareholder Offering is being allocated to subscribers on a "first come, first served" basis wherein the subscribers who are first to submit a completed subscription agreement and pay the corresponding subscription proceeds will be accepted up until the maximum amount of the Existing Shareholder Offering is reached. The sale of the WC Units will remain open until the earlier of November 16, 2017 and the full subscription for the WC Offering.

In the event that there is an over-subscription for WC Units as at November 14, 2017, subscriptions will be adjusted pro rata (in proportion to the aggregate amount of cleared funds received) to reduce the offering to a maximum of $400,000 for WC Units. Although the Existing Shareholder Offering is not being offered pro rata, all shareholders of the Company effective as of the Record Date will be treated equally. However, the Company reserves the right not to accept subscription amounts of less than $1,200 (20,000 WC Units) in respect of WC Units to avoid disproportionate administrative costs. The Company is using other available exemptions to place the WC Offering.

The Existing Shareholder Offering is being made under Ontario Securities Commission Rule 45-501 Ontario Prospectus and Registration Exemptions relating to distributions to existing security holders and under Multilateral CSA Notice 45-313-Prospectus Exemption for Distributions to Existing Security Holders and the legislation adopted pursuant thereto in other jurisdictions in Canada, as well as under other applicable exemptions without issuing a prospectus. The existing shareholder exemption limits a shareholder to a maximum investment of $15,000 in a 12-month period unless the shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the investment from a person registered as an investment dealer.

The Offering is expected to close on or before November 16, 2017, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, or such other date as is agreed between the Company and the subscribers. All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a statutory four month hold period.
