You are buying Exempt Market Securities

They are calledexempt market securitiesbecause two parts of securities law do not apply to them. If an issuer wants to sellexempt market securitiesto you:

• the issuer does not have to give you a prospectus (a document that describes the investment in detail and gives you some legal protections); and

• the securities do not have to be sold by an investment dealer registered with a securities regulatory authority.

There are restrictions on your ability to resellexempt market securities.Exempt market securitiesare more risky than other securities.

You may not receive any written information about the issuer or its business
If you have any questions about the issuer or its business, ask for written clarification before you purchase the securities. You should consult your own professional advisers before investing in the securities.

For more information on theexempt market, refer to the Saskatchewan Financial Services Commission’s website athttp://www.sfsc.gov.sk.ca

Instruction: The purchaser must sign 2 copies of this form. The purchaser and the issuer must each receive a signed copy.
