Order of importance, starting with the most important, the main risks of investing in the issuer's business for the purchasers:
Investment in the Special Warrants is highly speculative given the proposed nature of the Issuer’s business and its present stage of development. The following are risk factors associated with the Issuer, but are not intended to be all inclusive:
(a) The Issuer was only recently incorporated, has not commenced commercial operations, and has no assets other than cash. It has no history of earnings and will not generate earnings or pay dividends in the near future.
(b) Investment in the Special Warrants is highly speculative given the proposed nature of the Issuer’s business and its present stage of development.
(c) The directors and officers of the Issuer will only devote a portion of their time to the business and affairs of the Issuer and some of them are or will be engaged in other projects or businesses such that conflicts of interest may arise from time to time.
(d) There can be no assurance that the Issuer will be successful in filing a prospectus, in which case the Special Warrants will have no economic value. The Special Warrants are subject to an indefinite hold period and the investor may have no ability to sell its Special Warrants.
(e) If the Special Warrants are converted to common shares, there can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the Issuer’s common shares will develop and an investor may find it difficult to resell its common shares.
(f) The Issuer has only limited funds with which to identify and evaluate potential acquisitions and there can be no assurance that the Issuer will be able to identify a suitable acquisition.
(g) Even if a proposed transaction is identified, there can be no assurance that the Issuer will be able to successfully complete the transaction.
(h) Any transaction may be financed in all or part by the issuance of additional securities by the Issuer and this may result in dilution to the investor, which dilution may be significant and which may also result in a change of control of the Issuer.
As a result of these factors, an investment in the Special Warrants is only suitable for those investors who are willing to rely solely on management of the Issuer and who can afford to lose their entire investment. Those investors who are not prepared to do so should not invest in the Special Warrants.

To do so, you must send a notice to the funding portal within 48 hours of your subscription. If there is an amendment to this offering document, you can cancel your agreement to purchase these securities by sending a notice to the funding portal within 48 hours of receiving notice of the amendment.
