The Consolidation received regulatory approval today and will be effective as of market open on September 13, 2019, and the Bid will commence effective September 16, 2019 and terminate on or about September 15, 2020.
Fractional shares issuable in connection with the Consolidation will be rounded as appropriate, and accordingly no fractional Shares will be issued upon the Consolidation.

There will be no change to the Company's stock symbol. Upon completion of the Consolidation, it is expected that there will be a total of approximately 11,002,774 Shares issued and outstanding.
Pursuant to the Bid, the Company may purchase up to a maximum of 550,140 post-Consolidation Shares, representing approximately 5% of the then-outstanding Shares. No more than 2% of the outstanding Shares will be purchased in any 30-day period.
Purchases pursuant to the Bid will be made from time to time by RBC Dominion Securities Inc. on behalf of the Company through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange.
