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 risk factors associated with the Issuer and the offering hereunder include but are not limited to the following: (a) The Issuer was recently incorporated in 2017, 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 may 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 or minimal 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) We are highly dependent upon directors and officers and their loss could adversely affect our ability to operate and pursue our goals (g) 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. (h) The Issuer has entered a LOI with the owners of the Rupert Property. The issuer may be unable to satisfy the terms of the LOI and enter into a definitive option agreement with the owners of the Rupert Property. (i) The Rupert property is in the exploration stage. The Rupert property therefore may not contain economically recoverable minerals. Additionally, we may be unable to obtain additional financing required to explore and/or develop the Rupert property. 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.
