million warrants to GEM. The warrants will be exercisable for a period of
three years from the closing notice date at an exercise price of Cdn $0.27

sustainable growth over the long term. Within this context, the due diligence
process highlighted the depth of relationship between Northcore and GE
Capital Solutions, the level of our products' sophistication, plus our
ability to make strategic decisions to develop growth opportunities beyond GE
that become possible with GEM's Cdn $6.0 million committed equity line and
