announces that, further to its news releases dated December 22, 2020 and January 7, 2021, the Company has closed its
non-brokered private placement financing comprising of 7,500,000
units, at $0.10 per unit, for total
gross proceeds of $750,000.
Each such unit will consist of one share and one share purchase
warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional share in the

listed and where a majority of the trading volume of the common
shares occurs) exceeds $0.25 per
share for a price of ten consecutive trading days, the Company may,
within five days of such event, provide notice by way of news
release of early expiry, in which event the warrants will expire 30
days from the date of such news release.
The proceeds of the private placement will be used for general
working capital. Two insiders participated in this private
placement. David Richardson, a
"control person" of the Company by reason of holding, directly and
indirectly, more than 20% of the Company's issued shares, purchased
1,000,000 units through his company Countryman Investments Ltd.,
for a total of $100,000. The
Howard Group Inc., which provides investor relations services to
the Company, purchased 350,000 units for a total of $35,000.
The Company has paid an aggregate total of $27,750 in cash finders' fees and issued an
aggregate total of 277,500 finder's fee warrants in connection with
this private placement to three finders. Each finder's fee warrant
will entitle the holder to purchase a common share of the Company
at an exercise price equal to $0.10
per share, on or before January 20,
2022.
All securities issued under the financing will be subject to a
statutory four month hold period and securities will bear legends
