The Company also received shareholder approval for an ordinary resolution to adopt the proposed long-term incentive plan (the “LTIP”), to supersede and replace the Company’s current share compensation plan. The LTIP provides for broad-based equity awards to directors, officers, consultants and employees. The LTIP permits the granting of options, performance share units, restricted share units and/or deferred share units. The aggregate number of common shares of the Company to be reserved and set aside for issuance for option awards will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company at the time of granting the award (on a non-diluted basis). The aggregate number of common shares of the Company to be reserved and set aside for issuance for non-option awards, will not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company at the time of shareholder approval of the LTIP, being 3,979,333 common shares.

The LTIP is subject to final approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. For further details, please refer to the Company’s Information Circular available on Trillium Gold’s filings on www.sedar.com and Trillium Gold’s website at www.trilliumgold.com.
