announce its intention to commence a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for up to 17,340,061 common shares ("Shares"),
representing up to 10% of the Company's public float.
Purchases will be by way of open market purchases through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and the
Company will pay the market price of the Shares at the time of acquisition. The Company will conduct the NCIB through TD
Securities. All Shares purchased by the Company will be subsequently cancelled.
The Company has received approval from the Exchange to commence its NCIB on November 20, 2017. The bid will end on
November 19, 2018 or earlier if the number of Shares sought in the NCIB has been obtained. The Company reserves the right to
terminate the bid earlier if it determines such action to be appropriate. Although the Company intends to purchase Shares under
its NCIB, there can be no assurance that any such purchases will be completed.
The Company believes that the purchase of the Shares will increase the proportionate interest of, and be advantageous to, all
remaining security holders. The normal course purchases will also afford an increased degree of liquidity in the market.
