Mr. Douglas Brett reports

Canadian Quantum Energy Corp. has learned a letter of intent to settle litigation between Fairlady Energy Inc. and Junex Inc. regarding the Nicolet property, permit No. 2002RS056, in Quebec, has been signed by the parties.

Under the settlement terms, the 22,000-hectare permit, located in the St. Lawrence Lowlands, will be returned to Fairlady and Junex will have the right to earn a 50-per-cent interest in the Utica shales by drilling two exploration wells on the permit within the next 18 months.

Upon the finalization of the terms of the above-mentioned letter of intent, Canadian Quantum will complete the 2004 transaction whereby it purchased the Fairlady Quebec properties (including this permit) subject to the litigation being resolved.

The company will be pleased to have this litigation resolved, as the area has received considerable interest as of late due to the recent Utica shale drilling results released by Forest Oil.

We seek Safe Harbor.
