4 Summary of Material Change
The Company announced that it intends to conduct a non‐brokered private placement financing of up to 333,333,333 units (the “ Units ”) at a price of $0.03 per Unit to raise gross proceeds of a maximum of $10 million (the “ Private Placement ”) that may close in one or more tranches.
The Company has terminated its prior financing previously announced on November 20, 2019. On the closing of the prior financing, the Company issued a total of 45,322,731 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1,359,681. All securities were subject to a restricted period of four months and one day.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “ Share ”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “ Warrant ”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.05 for a period of two years following the issuance of the Warrants. The Warrants are subject to accelerated expiry in the event the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common shares equals or exceeds $0.10 on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “ Exchange ”) (or such other exchange on which the common shares may be traded) for ten (10) consecutive trading days, in which case, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by giving notice via news release to the holders thereof and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which the news release is disseminated by the Company.
While there is no minimum offering, if the Company raises at least $7 million under the Private Placement, the Company will meet one of the conditions to the entering into of a definitive consulting agreement with a prominent retail consultant (the “ Consultant ”) that is arm’s length to RYU. Please refer to the Company’s news release of January 28, 2020 for details with respect to the letter of engagement and proposed consulting agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Consultant.
Concurrent with the completion of the Private Placement (regardless of whether the full amount is raised or the consulting agreement is entered into), the Company will complete a consolidation of its outstanding common shares on at least a ten (10) old for one (1) new basis.
If the Company raises $7 million under the Private Placement, the anticipated use of proceeds will be as follows:

| Use of Proceeds | Fiscal 2020 ($) |
|---|---|
| General Corporatepurposes | 2,700,000.00 |
