As a result of the donation, Mr. Sprott still beneficially owns and controls 3,950,000 Warrants representing approximately 5.6% of the outstanding Shares on a partially diluted basis. However, Mr. Sprott still controls the 7,900,000 Shares donated to The Sprott Foundation.

The securities are held for investment purposes.
