Related Party Disclosure
Pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 --Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions("MI 61-101"), the Amended Loan Agreement constitutes a "related party transaction" as Nio-Metals (the “Related Party”) currently holds 45.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.
The Company has relied on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(f) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the transactions did not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company’s market capitalization and the Loans are on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Company than if the Loans were obtained from a person dealing at arm’s length with the Company.

The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before entering into the Amended Loan Agreement as the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement were not settled until shortly prior to execution and the Company and the parties wished to close the Amended Loan Agreement on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
