The Investor will also receive 3,000 detachable common share purchase warrants (“Warrants”) for each $1,000 of principal of Convertible Debenture subscribed for, for a total of 1,050,000 Warrants. Each Warrant will be exercisable into one Share at a price of $0.23 per Warrant until the date that is two years from the date of issuance.
