Comments by Management
David Vincent, CEO of the Company stated: "The appointment of Guy Dancosse as a Director to the Board, brings significant depth
of experience and legal skills, of international currency systems and of Global Mint operations, having been the legal counsel for
the Royal Canadian Mint for a long period of time. His background complements the new direction of the Company, relating to its
planned Ethereum Crypto-Token Offering (CTO) development work, including developing the regulatory and legal documentation
requirements, to undertake a CTO. Furthermore, Guy's experience on the Board of Directors of the Royal Canadian Mint should assist
with developing the physical delivery logistics with any CTO of Gold and Silver crypto-tokens, with smart contracts, on the
Ethereum blockchain during 2018."
Crypto-Token Offering (CTO) Considerations
The Company is not undertaking any current CTO right now. If, as and when the Company wishes to undertake a CTO, it will
disclose such details at that time.
While the Company is not conducting a CTO now it may decide to do so in the future. If the Company decides to do so, it will
determine the terms of such offering and, such CTO may be deemed to be a security for the purposes of the Securities Act
(British Columbia) and therefore require either a prospectus or an exemption from the prospectus requirement to issue the Ethereum
Crypto-Tokens and affect trades in the Ethereum Crypto-Tokens. The Company may utilize the accredited investors exemption, the
offering memorandum exemption or such other exemptions from the prospectus requirement that are detailed in National Instrument
45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions. However, in certain instances the issuance of a Ethereum Crypto-Token may be determined to
be a derivative if the underlying asset of the crypto-token is a commodity, which is not an investment contract. Until the Company
finalizes any terms of any CTO it will be unable to definitively determine if the Crypto-Token is a security or a derivative.
Crypto-Tokens may be tradeable on the Ethereum Platform or other token platforms. If such Crypto-Token is a security then the
Company will need to file a prospectus to permit the secondary market trading of the Crypto-Token or alternatively apply for an
exemption from the prospectus requirement for secondary market trading, and there are no assurances that such exemptions will be
granted.
