  3. 3.DSM will be the operator during Phase 2

The above terms are subject to a definitive agreement to be signed by both parties following due diligence by DSM. Due diligence is expected to be completed by February 28, 2015.

The participation of DSM in this exclusive proposed earn-in arrangement constitutes a related party transaction under Canadian Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"), but since both the fair market value of the subject matter of the transaction and the fair market value of the consideration for the transaction will not exceed 25% of Colt's market capitalization, the Company anticipates that the transaction will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101.

In addition, the closing of the proposed transaction and the execution of the definitive agreement will be subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, regulatory approvals in Portugal as well as Colt Senior Note holder approval (see Press Release July 4, 2013).

Additionally, the Company announces that it has completed a $150,000 unit offering consisting of 1.5 million units (the "Units") consisting 1.5 million common shares of the Company priced at $0.10 (a "Share") and 750,000 purchase warrants to purchase Shares at $0.15 (a "Warrant"). Proceeds of this offering subscribed for by the Company's CEO will be used for general working capital. Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.15 for a period of 36 months from the issuance date. The participation of the insider has been unanimously approved by the directors of the Company who are independent of that insider. This transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to, nor the consideration paid by, such directors and officers exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

Commenting on the announcement, Mr. Nikolas Perrault President and CEO of the Company said, "We are extremely pleased to enter into this the earn-in option arrangement with DSM which will fund an aggressive regional exploration drilling campaign focused mainly on our Montemor concession where numerous gold in soil anomalies remain to be been drill-tested. Of great significance as well, this agreement will allow the Company to advance its Miguel Vacas copper project (Borba concession) in a non-dilutive way while it progresses in its efforts at securing additional funding for the Feasibility Study of its flagship Tabuaco tungsten project. This agreement demonstrates the Company's continued commitment to its projects in Portugal and represents a significant step in the Company's efforts to build value for its shareholders despite one of the most challenging and uncertain market environments the junior mining industry has experienced."
