In connection with the Private Placement, 455,770 compensation warrants were issued to agents which will entitle the holders thereof to purchase an equal amount of common shares of the Company at the exercise price of U.S. $0.25 per common share for a two year period following closing.

As consideration for the outstanding securities of Adira, the Company has issued an aggregate of 39,040,001 common shares and now has an aggregate of 62,240,001 issued and outstanding common shares. Additionally,
3,334,000 options and 3,845,000 warrants of Adira were exchanged for options (the “Options”) and warrants of the Company on an equivalent basis.

The Company extends its appreciation for past service to Michael Hart, Michael Murphy and John Campbell, who have resigned from the board of the Company and welcome the Company’s new directors, Dennis Bennie (Chair), Glen Perry, Alan Friedman and Ilan Diamond (CEO). It is contemplated that at the next shareholder’s meeting, upon receipt of shareholder approval, the Company will change its name to “Adira Energy Corp.”, will adopt the 2009 Adira Option Plan and approve the previously granted Options.
