If, during any 10 consecutive trading days occurring after four months and one day has elapsed following the closing date of the Offering, the weighted average closing sales price of the Common Shares (or the closing bid, if no sales were reported on a trading day) as quoted on the TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") is greater than or equal to $0.15 per Common Share, the Company may provide notice in writing to the holders of the Warrants by issuance of a press release that the expiry date of the Warrants will be accelerated to the 30th day after the date on which the Company issues such press release.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid eligible finders aggregate cash finder fees of approximately $88,660 and issued 1,718,800 finder's options to purchase Common Shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per Common Share within 24 months from the closing date of the Offering.

Proceeds from the Offering are to be used to advance the Company's stem cell therapeutics platform, initiate sales and process initial batches of ACP (angiogenic cell precursors), pay finder fees, current filing and regulatory fees in connection with the Offering, and for general working capital purposes.

The Offering is subject to all necessary regulatory approvals including acceptance from the Exchange.

The Company is relying upon the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements pursuant to sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101 on the basis that the Company is not listed on a specified stock exchange and, at the time the Offering was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction insofar as it involves an interested party (within the meaning of MI 61-101) in the Offering, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.

Hemostemix relied on section 5.5(b) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority ‎Security Holders in ‎Special Transactions ‎‎("MI 61-‎‎101")‎ as the exemption from the formal ‎‎valuation ‎requirements of MI 61-101 and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 in respect of the ‎Options grant to the directors and ‎officers of Hemostemix as no securities of ‎Hemostemix are listed on a ‎specified market as defined in MI 61-101.
