The Financing consists of the sale of 1,437,500 flow-through units (the “FT Units”) at a price of $0.08 per share, and the sale of up to 1,020,857 non flow-through units (the “Non-FT Units”) at a price of $0.07 per share.

The Company will pay cash finder’s fees of up to $11,200 and will issue up to 147,501 finder’s warrants. Each of these finder’s warrants will have the same terms as the Warrants. The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for exploration on the Genesis Property and on Roughrider’s 100%-owned Athabasca Properties as well as for general working capital purposes.
Scott Gibson, Chief Executive Officer commented “We appreciate the continued support of our shareholders, and are glad to be able to provide shareholders with an opportunity to invest in a tax-efficient manner. These funds will bring us another step closer to earning our interest in our Genesis project in northeast Saskatchewan.”
