The filing delay was due to certain financial statement presentation issues upon
which the Company has been working closely with its auditors to resolve. There
was no disagreement among the Company, its auditors or the Board or Audit
Committee members in connection with the 2012 audited consolidated financial
statements.

ended March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, and will file the same once they have
been completed. The Company's Board and its management will also work with
securities regulators with the goal of having the existing Cease Trade Orders
revoked and the Company's shares resume trading on a Canadian stock exchange as
soon as possible.


The Company's Board of Directors wishes to thank the Company's shareholders for
their patience and support over the past few months.


The Company's Board of Directors also approved that the Company will hold the
2013 AGM on Monday, October 28, 2013 at Gowlings' Vancouver office, located at
