The rights issued under the Rights Offering (the Rights) will expire on June 15, 2016 (the Rights Expiry Date). The Rights Offering will be conducted in all of the provinces and territories of Canada and such jurisdictions outside of Canada where the Company is eligible to make such offer.

Each registered shareholder of Common Shares on the Record Date will receive one (1) Right for each Common Share held by such shareholder. One (1) Right plus the sum of $0.01 will entitle the Rights holder to subscribe for one (1) Common Share. The Rights issued under the Rights Offering will be evidenced by transferable rights certificates (each, a Rights Certificate), and will expire at 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Rights Expiry Date, after which time unexercised Rights will be void and of no value.

Nesscap has applied for a waiver of the TSX Venture Exchange requirements to list the Rights.

Eligible shareholders are entitled to subscribe for additional Common Shares, subject to certain limitations set out in the Company's rights offering circular (the Rights Offering Circular). A copy of the Rights Offering Circular will be filed on www.sedar.com, together with a rights offering notice (the Rights Offering Notice). The Rights Offering Notice and accompanying Rights Certificate will be mailed to each of the eligible shareholders of the Company on the Record Date. Registered shareholders wishing to exercise their Rights must forward the completed Rights Certificates, together with the applicable funds to TMX Equity Transfer and Trust Company on or before the Rights Expiry Date. Shareholders who own their Common Shares through an intermediary, such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, will receive materials and instructions from their intermediary.

Arbat Capital Group Ltd. (Arbat) and I2BF Energy Limited (I2BF) have agreed to purchase from the Corporation such number of Rights Shares that are available to be purchased, but not otherwise subscribed for, that will result in proceeds to Nesscap of at least US $2,000,000 (the Stand-By Commitment). Following the Rights Offering and successful completion of the Stand-By Commitment, Nesscap's Board of Directors shall appoint a representative of Arbat to the Board of Directors. Arbat and I2BF have also agreed, concurrent with the completion of the Rights Offering to extend the maturity date of their outstanding debentures to June 30, 2018.

A fully subscribed Rights Offering is expected to generate gross proceeds of approximately $2,873,332. It is expected that up to $2,810,000 will be available to the Company for general corporate purposes after deducting anticipated expenses for the Rights Offering. While the Company intends to spend the available funds as described in the Rights Offering Circular, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of the available funds may be necessary. In any event, the available funds will be used by the Company in furtherance of its business.
