interest totaling $71,013.70 is being converted into common shares
of the Company at a conversion price of $0.27 per share, being
today's closing price of the common shares on the Exchange.
Pursuant to the conversion of Dundee's loan and accrued interest,
12,736,013 common shares will be issued and Dundee will hold a
total of 21,624,901 common shares, being 29.32% of the Company's
issued and outstanding common shares. Dundee also currently holds
4,444,444 warrants entitling it to acquire the same number of
common shares at a rate of $0.375 per share at any time until
