The Transaction has been conditionally accepted by the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and has received an overwhelming approval of the shareholders of the Company at the special meeting of the shareholders held on July 30, 2018.

The completion of the Transaction constitutes an event satisfying the Release Conditions in respect of the private placement of the Company’s 20,833,699 subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipt Offering”), which was completed on April 18, 2018 as described more fully in the Company’s April 18, 2018 news release. Having satisfied the Release Conditions, 20,833,699 subscription receipts issued pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Offering automatically converted into 20,833,699 common shares of the Company, 12,095,120 of which were issued on a flow-through basis. Additionally, the net gross proceeds of the Subscription Receipt Offering which previously were held in escrow by a subscription receipt agent, have been released to the Company.

As part of the Transaction, Adventus acquired 86,681,695 common shares of Canstar (the “Adventus Shares”) or approximately 38% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company for a value of approximately $6,067,718.65 (value is calculated based on the last trading price of the common shares of Canstar prior to the halt on February 16, 2018). Adventus did not own any common shares of Canstar prior to the Transaction. Adventus acquired the Adventus Shares as part of the Transaction and for investment purposes. Depending on market and other conditions, Adventus may from time to time in the future increase or decrease its ownership, control or direction over the Adventus Shares as circumstances warrant. For the purposes of this notice, the Head Office of Adventus is 220 Bay Street, Suite 550, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2W4. In satisfaction of the requirements of the National Instrument 62-104 - Take-Over Bids And Issuer Bids and National Instrument 62-103 - The Early Warning System and Related Take-Over Bid and Insider Reporting Issues, Early Warning report in respect of the acquisition of common shares of the Company by Adventus, will be filed under the Canstar SEDAR Profile at www.sedar.com.

As part of the Transaction, Altius has acquired 12,095,120 common shares of Canstar. Additionally, the 6,250,000 subscription receipts of Canstar previously acquired by Altius pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Offering as previously announced by Canstar on April 18, 2018, have been converted into 12,095,120 common shares of Canstar on a flow-through basis. Accordingly, following the completion of the Transaction, Altius holds 18,345,120 common shares of Canstar, or approximately 7.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

The common shares of the Company are expected to resume trading on the TSXV following the final approval of the Transaction by the TSXV which is expected to be on or about August 9, 2018. A further announcement in this regard will be made. Canstar will focus its attention on polymetallic exploration in Newfoundland, in particular the Buchans camp, where it will own the majority of the district's mineral rights.

The Company also announces that it will be proceeding with the previously announced consolidation of its common shares on a five (old) for one (new) basis. The consolidation was approved by shareholders as part of the Transaction. Upon the consolidation, any outstanding stock options and warrants will, in accordance with their terms, be exercisable into post- consolidation common shares of the Company at appropriately adjusted exercise prices. The Company expects the consolidation to be effective on or about August 9, 2018.

The Company will continue to use the stock symbol "ROX" for trading in the common shares on the TSXV. After the consolidation becomes effective, each shareholder of the Company will hold one post-consolidation share for every five pre-consolidation shares, with the result that after the consolidation the Company will have outstanding approximately 44,483,807 common shares. Canstar's name will not be changed as a result of the share consolidation.
