Strategic is making the New Bid, to succeed the Old Bid (which was limited to an aggregate of 8,500,000 common shares), because it is of the opinion that fluctuating global market conditions periodically (and currently) may result in unwarranted reductions in Strategic's share price that do not reflect the underlying value of its assets. Strategic will utilize unallocated cash resources to effect purchases under the New Bid with a view to capitalizing on these potential price weaknesses. Shares purchased under the New Bid will be made at Management's discretion based on market conditions, and will be returned to Strategic's treasury for cancellation.
The New Bid will be conducted on behalf of Strategic by Ventum Financial Corp., of Suite 2500 - 733 Seymour Street, Vancouver, B.C. V6B 0S6.
