Each whole warrant forming part of the Hard Units will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share at a price of $0.15 (Canadian) for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date. Finders used to source subscriptions will be paid a fee on closing (a "Finder's Fee") of 7% in cash and 7% payable as compensation options based on the aggregate number of Flow-Through Units and Hard Units sold pursuant to the Offering as a result of the direct efforts of the finder. Each compensation option will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share at a price of $0.15 (Canadian) for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date.  The compensation options will be non-transferable. The proceeds will be used to advance Hudson River's exploration projects in Ontario, primarily the Forge Lake project, and for general corporate expenses. About Hudson River Minerals Ltd.
