VOTING OF PROXIES

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY PROXIES IN FAVOUR OF MANAGEMENT WILL BE VOTED ON ANY POLL (SUBJECT TO ANY RESTRICTIONS THEY MAY CONTAIN) IN FAVOUR OF THE MATTERS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY.

IF YOUR COMMON SHARES ARE HELD IN PHYSICAL FORM (I.E. PAPER FORM) AND ARE REGISTERED IN YOUR NAME, THEN YOU ARE A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER. HOWEVER, IF, LIKE MOST SHAREHOLDERS, YOU KEEP YOUR COMMON SHARES IN A BROKERAGE ACCOUNT, THEN YOU ARE A BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDER. THE MANNER FOR VOTING IS DIFFERENT FOR REGISTERED AND BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS. THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BY ALL SHAREHOLDERS.


VOTING BY PROXYHOLDERS

The persons named as Proxy will vote or withhold from voting the Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with your instructions on any ballot that may be called for. If you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, your Common Shares will be voted accordingly.

(a)

each matter or group of matters identified therein for which a choice is not specified, other than the appointment of an auditor and the election of directors;

(b)

any amendment to or variation of any matter identified therein; and

(c)

any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting.

In respect of the matter for which a choice is not specified in the Proxy, the persons named in the Proxy will vote the Common Shares represented by the Proxy for the approval of such matter.




2






REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER

Registered shareholders may wish to vote by Proxy whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered Shareholders electing to submit a Proxy may do so by:

(a)

completing, dating and signing the enclosed form of proxy and returning it to the Corporation’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services by fax within North America at 1-866-249-7775, outside North America at (416) 263-9524, or by mail or hand delivery at 2nd floor 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3B9;

(b)

using a touch-tone phone to transmit voting choices to a toll free number at 1-888-835-8683 and following the instructions on the voice response system by providing the Holder ID and Holder Code located beside your name on the Proxy form on the lower left hand side. If the Holder ID and Holder Code are not on the Proxy, it will be on the back of the flyer enclosed with this material. Instructions are then conveyed by use of the touchtone selections over the telephone; or

(c)

using the internet through the website of the Corporation’s transfer agent at www.computershare.com/proxy. Registered shareholders must follow the instructions that appear on the screen and refer to the enclosed proxy form for the Holder ID and Holder Code and the proxy access number;

in all cases ensuring that the proxy is received at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof at which the Proxy is to be used.


NOTICE TO BENEFICIAL HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES

The following information is of significant importance to shareholders who do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Beneficial Shareholders should note that the only proxies that can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting are those deposited by registered shareholders (those whose names appear on the records of the Corporation as the registered holders of Common Shares).

If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those Common Shares will not be registered in the shareholder’s name on the records of the Corporation. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the names of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker. In the United States, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co. as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (which acts as depositary for many U.S. brokerage firms and custodian banks), and in Canada, under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients.

There are two kinds of Beneficial owners - those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own (called OBOs for Objecting Beneficial Owners) and those who do not object to the issuers of the securities they own knowing who they are (called NOBOs for Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners).

The Corporation is taking advantage of the provisions of National Instrument 54-101 that permit it to directly deliver proxy-related materials to its NOBOs. As a result NOBOs can expect to receive a scannable Voting Instruction Form (VIF) from our transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. "Computershare". These VIFs are to be completed and returned to Computershare in the envelope provided or by facsimile. In addition, Computershare provides both telephone voting and internet voting as described on the VIF itself which contain complete instructions. Computershare will tabulate the results of the VIFs received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the shares represented by the VIFs they receive."

These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities of the Corporation. If you are a non-registered owner, and the Corporation or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf.



3






By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Corporation (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in your request for voting instructions.

Beneficial Shareholders who are OBOs should follow the instructions of their intermediary carefully to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting.

The form of proxy supplied to you by your broker will be similar to the proxy provided to registered shareholders by the Corporation. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the intermediary on how to vote on your behalf. Most brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) in the United States and in Canada. Broadridge mails a VIF in lieu of a proxy provided by the Corporation. The VIF will name the same persons as the Corporation’s Proxy to represent you at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a Beneficial Shareholder of the Corporation), other than the persons designated in the VIF, to represent you at the Meeting. To exercise this right, you should insert the name of the desired representative in the blank space provided in the VIF. The completed VIF must then be returned to Broadridge by mail or facsimile or given to Broadridge by phone or over the internet, in accordance with Broadridge’s instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting. If you receive a VIF from Broadridge, you cannot use it to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting - the VIF must be completed and returned to Broadridge, in accordance with its instructions, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted.

Although as a Beneficial Shareholder you may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of your broker, you, or a person designated by you, may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for your broker and vote your Common Shares in that capacity. If you wish to attend at the Meeting and indirectly vote your Common Shares as proxyholder for your broker, or have a person designated by you do so, you should enter your own name, or the name of the person you wish to designate, in the blank space on the voting instruction form provided to you and return the same to your broker in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker, well in advance of the Meeting.

Alternatively, you can request in writing that your broker send you a legal proxy which would enable you, or a person designated by you, to attend at the Meeting and vote your Common Shares.


REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES


The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are directors of the Company.  Any shareholder returning the enclosed form of proxy may revoke the same at any time insofar as it has not been exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by an instrument in writing executed by the shareholder or by his attorney authorized in writing, or where the shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation and delivered either to the registered office of the Company at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, at which the proxy is to be used, or to the chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, and upon any such deposits the proxy is revoked.


INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Other than as set forth in this Information Circular, no director or executive officer of the Corporation, or any person who has held such a position since the beginning of the last completed financial year end of the Corporation, nor any nominee for election as a director of the Corporation, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting.


VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF


The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares without par value of which 12,175,511 shares are issued and outstanding.  Only holders of common shares are entitled to vote at the Meeting and holders of common shares are entitled to one vote for each common share held.  Holders of common shares of record on January 19, 2009 will be entitled to vote at the Meeting.  To the knowledge of the directors of the Company, no persons own shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to shares of the Company.




4






VOTING


Under the provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act, a simple majority of the voting shareholders present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, provided a quorum is present, is required to pass an ordinary resolution; a two-thirds majority of the voting shareholders present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, is required to pass a special resolution.  The persons named in the accompanying proxy form will be voting in favor of all of the resolutions presented at the Meeting, ordinary and special, unless otherwise directed.


FIX THE NUMBER OF DIRECTORS AT FOUR


The shareholders will be asked to consider, and if thought fit, to pass an ordinary resolution setting the number of directors of the Company at four or such increase as authorized by the Articles of the Company.


ELECTION OF DIRECTORS


The directors of the Company are elected at each Annual General Meeting and hold offices until the next Annual General Meeting or until their successors are appointed. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the proxy will be voted for the nominees herein listed, all of whom are presently members of the Board of Directors.  Management of the Company proposes to nominate each of the following persons for the election as a director.  Information concerning such persons, as furnished by the individual nominees, is as follows.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES


Corporate governance relates to the activities of the board of directors (the "Board"), the members of which are elected by and are accountable to the shareholders, and takes into account the role of the individual members of management who are appointed by the Board and who are charged with the day-to-day management of the Company. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, which are both in the interest of its shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making. The Board is of the view that the Company's general approach to corporate governance, summarized below, is appropriate and substantially consistent with objectives reflected in the guidelines for improved corporate governance in Canada adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators (the "National Guidelines").


Board of Directors


Structure and Compensation


The Board is currently composed of four directors.


The National Guidelines suggest that the board of directors of every listed company should be constituted with a majority of individuals who qualify as "unrelated" directors. An "unrelated" director is a director who is independent of management and is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the director's ability to act with a view to the best interests of the Company, other than interests and relationships arising from shareholding. In addition, where a company has a significant shareholder, the National Guidelines suggest that the board of directors should include a number of directors who do not have interests in either the Company or the significant shareholder. Of the proposed nominees, one is considered by the Board to be "unrelated" within the meaning of the TSX.V Guidelines (being Mr. Lindsay Bottomer) and three are "insiders" or management directors and accordingly considered to be "related" (being Mr. Dale McClanaghan, Mr. Scott Steeds and Mr. Allan Anderson). In assessing the TSX.V Guidelines and making the foregoing determinations, the circumstances of each director have been examined in relation to a number of factors.


Mandate of the Board


The mandate of the Board is to manage or supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Company and to act with a view to the best interests of the Company. In doing so, the board oversees the management of the Company's affairs directly and through its committees. In fulfilling its mandate, the Board, among other matters, is responsible depending on the particular circumstances of the Company for reviewing and approving the Company's overall business strategies and its annual business plan, reviewing and approving the annual corporate budget and forecast, reviewing and approving significant capital investments outside the approved budget; reviewing major strategic initiatives to ensure that the Company's proposed actions accord with shareholder objectives; reviewing succession planning; assessing management's performance against approved business plans and industry standards; reviewing and approving the reports and other disclosure issued to shareholders; ensuring the effective operation of the Board; and safeguarding shareholders' equity interests through the optimum utilization of the Company's capital resources.




9






Meetings of the Board


The Board meets quarterly to review, among other things, the performance of the Company. Results are compared and measured against a previously established plan and performance in prior years. The Board also holds a meeting each year to review and assess the Company's financial budget and business plan for the ensuing year and its overall strategic objectives. This process establishes, among other things, benchmarks against which the Board may measure the performance of management. Other meetings of the Board are called to deal with special matters as circumstances require.


Nomination and Assessment


The Board determines new nominees to the Board, although a formal process has not been adopted. The nominees are generally the result of recruitment efforts by the Board members, including both formal and informal discussions among Board members. The Board monitors but does not formally assess the performance of individual Board members or committee members or their contributions.


Compensation


The directors decide as a Board the compensation for the Company's directors and CEO, based on industry standards and the Company's financial situation.  The directors currently do not receive any remuneration for their acting in such capacity.

Other Directorships

The following directors are also currently directors of other reporting issuers, other than the Company:


Director

Reporting Issuer

Lindsay Bottomer

Entrée Gold Inc.

Yale Resources Ltd.

Rochester Resources Ltd

 Armadillo Resources Ltd.

Richfield Ventures Corp.

Astorius Resources Ltd.

Zenith Industries Corp.

Other Matters

The Board has not adopted any formal steps to orient new board members. The Board's continuing education is typically derived from correspondence with the Corporation's legal counsel to remain up to date with developments in relevant corporate and securities' law matters. The Board has not adopted guidelines or attempted to quantify or stipulate steps to encourage and promote a culture of ethical business conduct; but does promote ethical business conduct through the nomination of board members it considers ethical, through avoiding or minimizing conflicts of interest, and by having a sufficient number of its board members independent of corporate matters.


The Board has not established any committees other than its audit committee. All decisions are made by full board of director meetings or consent resolutions.

Neither the Corporation nor the Board has determined formal means or methods to regularly assess the Board, its committees or the individual directors with respect to their effectiveness and contributions. Effectiveness is subjectively measured by comparing actual corporate results with stated objectives. The contributions of an individual director is informally monitored by the other Board members, having in mind the business strengths of the individual and the purpose of originally nominating the individual to the Board.




10






The Company feels its corporate governance practices are appropriate and effective for the Company, given its relatively small size and limited operations. The Company's method of corporate governance allows for the Company to operate efficiently, with simple checks and balances that control and monitor management and corporate functions without excessive administrative burden.


PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON


STOCK OPTION PLAN


The Company presently has in place a "rolling" stock option plan (the "Plan") whereby the Company is authorized to grant stock options of up to 10% of its issued and outstanding shares, from time to time. The TSX Venture Exchange requires listed companies that have "rolling" stock option plans in place to receive shareholder approval to such plan on a yearly basis at the Company's annual general meeting.  As such, shareholders will be asked to consider, and if thought fit to approve a resolution ratifying and approving the Company's existing Plan.


ACTS AND DEEDS SINCE THE LAST ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING


The shareholders will be asked to approve, by way of an ordinary resolution, the acts and deeds undertaken by the directors of the Company since the last Annual General Meeting of the Company.  The persons named in the accompanying proxy form will vote for this resolution unless otherwise directed.


OTHER MATTERS


Management is not, at this time, aware of any matter to be presented at the meeting other than the items set forth in the Notice.  If other matters are properly brought before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote the proxy on such matters in accordance with their judgment unless their authority is with held.
