Dundee's loan and accrued interest, 12,736,013 common shares will be issued and

Company's issued and outstanding common shares. Dundee also currently holds
4,444,444 warrants entitling it to acquire the same number of common shares at a
rate of $0.375 per share at any time until January 10, 2015.


About Xylitol Canada Inc.

Xylitol Canada's business strategy is to leverage novel proprietary technology

sugar, has a myriad of oral health benefits, including the prevention of tooth
decay, and is safe for diabetics. To date, wider spread use of xylitol has been
limited due to the lack of a reliable, low cost, high quality supplier.
