In connection with the Offering, the Company will pay a cash finder's fee of 7% of the gross proceeds raised under the Offering and has issued 166,666 finder warrants. Each finder warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.35 during a 12-month period.

The securities issued under the Offering are subject to a hold period expiring on April 3, 2010 .

Temex is a Canadian exploration company advancing its precious metal, nickel, diamond, and uranium projects in Ontario.
