Disclosure regarding forward-looking information

This news release includes forward-looking statements about expected future events. Titanium cautions that future events may be affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond its control and results may vary substantially from what Titanium currently foresees.

Forward-looking statements typically use words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “project”, “expect”, “plan”, “intend” or similar words suggesting future outcomes, statements that actions, events or conditions “may”, “would”, “could” or “will” be taken or occur in the future. These forward-looking statements are based on various assumptions including expectations regarding satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions to the Offering; the size of the Offering; use of proceeds of the Offering; the anticipated closing time of the Offering, if at all; the receipt of TSXV approval for the Offering and related transactions; the re-constitution of the Company’s board of directors; the anticipated timing of holding Titanium’s annual meeting and potential changes to the matters coming before the annual and special meeting of the shareholders, including the election of directors; the state of the economy; results of operations; performance; business prospects and opportunities; future exchange and interest rates; impact of increasing competition; the ability of Titanium to access capital; availability of potential transactions and interests from third parties in pursuing potential transactions with Titanium. While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that contribute to the possibility that the predicted outcome will not occur, including, without limitation: the ability of the various parties, including the Company and the Investor Group, to satisfy the applicable conditions to closing of the Offering; the ability of the Company to obtain all required approvals to complete the Offering and re-constitute the board of directors of Titanium; and the risk that Offering and related transaction do not result in any changes to matters to be considered at the annual meeting. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.

Although Titanium believes that the expectations represented in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. As a consequence, actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and you should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release are made as the date of this news release and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the included forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable securities law.
