This prospectus qualifies the distribution (the ‘‘Offering’’) by <strong>Mirabela</strong> <strong>Nickel</strong> Limited (‘‘<strong>Mirabela</strong>’’) of an aggregate<br />
of 30,000,000 ordinary shares in the capital of <strong>Mirabela</strong> (the ‘‘Shares’’) to be issued and sold at a price of C$5.30 per<br />

RBC Dominion Securities Inc. and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. (collectively, the ‘‘Agents’’).<br />
The outstanding ordinary shares of <strong>Mirabela</strong> are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the ‘‘TSX’’) under the symbol<br />

hereof), the closing price of the ordinary shares on the TSX was C$ 6.00. The TSX has conditionally approved the<br />
