TORONTO, July 4, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - Further to its preliminary news releases dated February 4, 2013 and March 1, 2013, C Level III Inc. (TSXV: CLV.P) (the "Corporation"), a TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") capital pool company, is pleased to announce that it has received the conditional approval of the TSXV to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of 2299895 Ontario Inc. ("OntarioCo") as part of its qualifying transaction pursuant to Policy 2.4 of the TSXV (the "Qualifying Transaction"). The Qualifying Transaction will be carried out by means of securities exchange agreements, pursuant to which Giyani Gold Corp. ("Giyani Gold"), the majority shareholder of OntarioCo, and two minority OntarioCo shareholders will collectively receive an aggregate of 23,880,265 common shares of the Resulting Issuer (the "Resulting Issuer Shares") in exchange for their OntarioCo common shares (the "OntarioCo Shares").

Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, OntarioCo will be a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Resulting Issuer. The Qualifying Transaction will constitute a reverse take-over of the Corporation inasmuch as the current shareholders of OntarioCo will own approximately 51.7% of the outstanding shares of the Resulting Issuer immediately upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction (on a non-diluted basis and assuming full subscription of the Offering described below).

As a result of the securities exchange agreements and the Offering described below, the Resulting Issuer will have up to 46,217,942 Resulting Issuer Shares, 483,392 options to acquire Resulting Issuer Shares, and up to 1,223,768 share purchase warrants to acquire Resulting Issuer Shares outstanding. Approximately 15,852,515 Resulting Issuer Shares will be subject to escrow and will be gradually released in accordance with the policies of the TSXV.

Terms of the Offering

In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, the Corporation and OntarioCo will each carry out respective private placements, which are expected to close on or around July 30, 2013 (the "Offering"). The Offering will consist of a combination of OntarioCo Shares at a price of $1.00 per OntarioCo Share, subscription receipts for Resulting Issuer Shares (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.20 per Subscription Receipt, and subscription receipts for Resulting Issuer Shares issued on a flow-through basis (the "FT Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.25 per FT Subscription Receipt, for maximum aggregate gross proceeds of $4-million.

The subscription agreements for the OntarioCo Shares will provide that each OntarioCo Share sold pursuant to the Offering shall be exchanged for Resulting Issuer Shares on the basis of five (5) Resulting Issuer Shares for each OntarioCo Share upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction.

Each Subscription Receipt will automatically convert, without any further action by the holder thereof, and without any additional consideration, into one (1) Resulting Issuer Share upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction. Each FT Subscription Receipt will automatically convert, without any further action by the holder thereof, and without any additional consideration, into one (1) Resulting Issuer Share issued on a flow-through basis upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction.

The Offering will be led by Portfolio Strategies Securities Inc. (the "Agent"). The Corporation will pay the Agent a commission of 7% of the gross proceeds from the Subscription Receipts and FT Subscription Receipts and 2% of the gross proceeds from the OntarioCo Shares sold pursuant to the Offering upon satisfaction of certain release conditions, including completion of the Qualifying Transaction (the "Release Conditions"). The Agent will also be issued broker warrants (the "Broker Warrants") upon satisfaction of the Release Conditions, equal to a total of 7% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts and FT Subscription Receipts and 2% of the aggregate number of OntarioCo Shares sold pursuant to the Offering. Each Broker Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Resulting Issuer Share at $0.20 per Resulting Issuer Share for a period of eighteen (18) months following the satisfaction of the Release Conditions.

The gross proceeds from the Subscription Receipts and FT Subscription Receipts sold pursuant to the Offering will be held in escrow in an interest bearing account pending satisfaction of the Release Conditions (the "Escrowed Proceeds"). If the Release Conditions are not satisfied or waived on or before 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is four (4) months and one (1) day from the closing date of the Offering, then the Subscription Receipts and FT Subscription Receipts will immediately become null and void and C Level shall distribute the Escrowed Proceeds and accrued interest to the holders of the Subscription Receipts and FT Subscription Receipts on a pro rata basis so that they are refunded their full purchase price.

Required Approvals

Completion of the Qualifying Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to receipt of final approval of the Qualifying Transaction from the TSXV.

The Qualifying Transaction is not a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction", as the Corporation and OntarioCo do not share any common "Control Persons", within the meaning of those terms in Policy 2.4 of the TSXV. As such, the approval of the Corporation's shareholders is not required; however, in connection with the Qualifying Transaction, an annual general and special meeting of the Corporation's shareholders will take place on June 27, 2013, at which time the shareholders will be asked to consider and approve, among other things, a special resolution to change the name of the Resulting Issuer to "Canoe Mining Ventures Corp."

The TSXV has waived its sponsorship requirements in connection with the Qualifying Transaction.

A filing statement in respect of the Qualifying Transaction has been prepared and conditionally approved by the TSXV and will be filed in accordance with Policy 2.4 of the TSXV on SEDAR at www.sedar.com at least seven (7) business days prior to the commencement of trading of the Resulting Issuer's shares.

About OntarioCo

OntarioCo is a majority owned subsidiary of Giyani Gold, incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) on September 23, 2011. The company has its head office in Oakville, Ontario. OntarioCo is a gold exploration company with assets in the Northwestern region of the province of Ontario, including its Abbie Lake-Keating Property, and its rare earth projects in the province Saskatchewan. According to the independent technical report prepared by J. Garry Clark, P. Geo. in respect of the Abbie Lake-Keating Property, dated February 15, 2013 (the "Technical Report"), the Abbie Lake-Keating Property has the potential to host significant gold resources and is a property of merit, worthy of further exploration.

As described in the Technical Report, the Abbie Lake-Keating Property covers a 38km section of the Kabenung Lake greenstone belt that hosts the Iron Lake Deformation Zone (the "ILDZ") and subsidiary shear zones which have been proven to contain significant gold showings. The gold mineralization found associated with the shears on the Abbie Lake and Keating East portions of the Abbie Lake-Keating Property resembles gold bearing structures found in the Timmins camp area. Quartz eye porphyry zones located on the boundaries between the Abbie Lake and Keating townships are the likely heat engines that have driven gold bearing fluid. Shears with pyrite and green mica that occur in quartz eye sericite schists in the Keating East portion visually resemble Hemlo-style alteration. The ILDZ and associated formation and shear zones that are traced by geophysics and diamond drilling across the area have the potential of hosting economic gold mineralization.

An exploration budget of $878,300 is recommended to further evaluate the Abbie Lake-Keating Property. OntarioCo's exploration program will be comprised of diamond drilling and Induced Polarization surveying to extend the known gold bearing alteration zones.
