closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement in the amount of $1,060,000.

A total of 5,300,000 Units (“Units”) were issued at a price of $0.20 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one fully paid and non-assessable common share (a “Share”) in the capital of the Company and one transferable common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”).

In certain events, the Company can accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants if the common shares trade above a weighted average of $0.50 for 20 days. Both the common shares issued as part of the Units and any common shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to a hold period, which expires on November 14, 2009 and, such common shares may not be traded until November 14, 2009, except as permitted by the Securities Act (British Columbia) and the Rules made thereunder and the TSX Venture Exchange.
