Upon completion of the Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will operate in the Medical Clinic sector.

("GKAT"), an entity existing under the federal laws of Canada and controlled by George Barakat, Jack Nathan's CEO; and, First Wellington Securities Inc. ("First Wellington"), an entity existing under the province of Ontario and controlled by Mike Marchelletta, President of Jack Nathan.

The Transaction

The parties to the Transaction are at arm's length and, as to the knowledge of the Corporation, no insider, promoter or control person of the Corporation has any material equity ownership or interest in Jack Nathan prior to giving effect to the Transaction. As the Transaction is not a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" (as such term is defined in TSXV Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies), approval of the Corporation's shareholders will not be required pursuant to the policies of the TSXV.

There are currently an aggregate of 7,876,000 common shares in the capital of WVI (each, a "WVI Common Share") issued and outstanding, as well as 787,600 stock options and 487,600 broker warrants, each of which is exercisable to acquire one WVI Common Share at an exercise price of $0.10 per share. On or immediately prior to completion of the Transaction, it is anticipated that WVI will effect a consolidation on the basis of three (3) "old" WVI Common Shares to one "new" WVI Common Share (subject to adjustments in certain circumstances (the "Consolidation") resulting in approximately 2,625,333 post-Consolidation WVI Common Shares.

In connection with the Transaction, all outstanding stock options and warrants of WVI will, on a post-Consolidation basis, remain in effect on substantially the same terms and in accordance with the policies of the TSXV.

Upon completion of the Transaction, it is anticipated that existing securityholders of Jack Nathan will be issued 50,000,000 post-Consolidation WVI Common Shares (the "Resulting Issuer Common Shares") and 10,000,000 restricted voting shares (the "Resulting Issuer Restricted Shares"). The Resulting Issuer Restricted Shares will not carry the right to vote, will rank pari passu with the Resulting Issuer Common Shares with respect to the payment of dividends and distribution of assets on liquidation, and will be convertible at the option of the holder into Resulting Issuer Common Shares on a one-for-one basis subject to satisfaction of the public distribution listing requirements of the Exchange.

Concurrent Financing

In connection with and prior to closing of the Transaction, Jack Nathan proposes to complete a private placement financing with a syndicate of agents led by PI Financial Corp. and Regent Capital Partners Inc., and including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Eight Capital (together, the "Agents") of approximately 11,200,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.50 per Subscription Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.6 million (the "Concurrent Financing").  Each Subscription Receipt will automatically convert into one unit (a "Unit") of Jack Nathan on the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent to the Transaction and certain other ancillary conditions customary for transactions of this nature (collectively, the "Release Conditions"), without the payment of additional consideration or the taking of further action on the part of the subscriber.  Each Unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of Jack Nathan and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share in the capital of Jack Nathan (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.75 per Warrant Share for a period of two years following the closing date of the Concurrent Financing.  If, for any consecutive 10 trading days following completion of the Transaction, the volume-weighted average price of the Resulting Issuer Common Shares is equal to or greater than $1.00, the Resulting Issuer may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by giving notice to the holders and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the thirtieth day after the date of such notice.

The gross proceeds of the Concurrent Financing (less the Agents’ expenses and 50% of the Commission, as defined below) will be held in escrow pending the satisfaction of the Release Conditions. In the event the event the Transaction does not occur on the date that is 120 days following the final closing date of the Concurrent Financing, the gross proceeds shall be returned to the purchasers pro rata without any deduction or interest, and the Subscription Receipts shall be automatically cancelled.

Upon completion of the Transaction, each common share and Warrant of Jack Nathan issued pursuant to the Concurrent Financing will automatically be exchanged for one Resulting Issuer Common Share and one warrant of the Resulting Issuer (such warrants to have the same terms as the Warrants) resulting in an effective issue price of $0.50 per Resulting Issuer Common Share.

In connection with the Concurrent Financing, the Agents will be entitled to a cash commission (the "Commission") equal to 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in connection with the Concurrent Financing other than Subscription Receipts sold to those persons set out on the president’s list (the "President’s List"), which shall be no greater than $2,500,000 of Subscription Receipts, and 3.5% of the gross proceeds realized in respect of the sale of Subscription Receipts to persons identified on the President's List. In addition, the Agents shall be issued non-transferrable compensation options (each, a "Compensation Option") exercisable for that number of common shares in the capital of Jack Nathan equal to 7% of the number of Subscription Receipts issued pursuant to the Concurrent Financing, other than Subscription Receipts sold to those persons set out on the President’s List, and 3.5% of the number of Subscription Receipts sold to persons on the President's List, with each Compensation Option exercisable into a common share at a price of $0.50 per share for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Concurrent Financing. In connection with the Concurrent Financing, the Agents will be entitled to a corporate finance fee of $50,000, which shall be paid in cash and/or common shares in the capital of Jack Nathan (the "Corporate Finance Fee Shares") as agreed to by the Agents and Jack Nathan at a deemed price equal to $0.50 per Corporate Finance Fee Share. In connection with the closing of the Transaction, the Compensation Options and Corporate Finance Fee Shares will be exchanged for like securities of the Resulting Issuer.

The net proceeds of the Concurrent Financing, after giving effect to the Transaction, are expected to be used by the Resulting Issuer for corporate and general working capital purposes.

Following the completion of the Transaction, the Resulting Issuer Shares shall be held as follows:

Shareholder Number of Resulting Issuer Common Shares Percentage of Resulting Issuer Common Shares Number of Resulting Issuer Restricted Voting Shares Percentage of Total Resulting Issuer Shares (Common and Restricted Voting)
