Quarterly Filing Update

The British Columbia Securities Commission has enacted BC Instrument 51-515 - Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements ("BCI 51-515") which allows for a 45-day extension for certain periodic filings required to be made on or prior to June 1, 2020. The Company will be relying on this extension and on the temporary exemption of its Group A filings pursuant to BCI 51-515 in respect to the following provisions:

• the requirement to file unaudited financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (the "Financial Statements") within 60 days of the Company's financial quarter end as required by section 4.4(b) of NI 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Requirements ("NI 51-102");

• the requirement to file certifications of the Financial Statements pursuant to section 5.1 of National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings.
