On April 23, 2025, the Company entered into an agency agreement (the “Agency Agreement”) with Clear Street LLC, A.G.P.

Each Unit is comprised of one (1) class A subordinate voting share (each, a “Share”) of the Company and one half of one (1/2) transferable Share purchase warrant (each whole share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one (1) Share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of US$3.6045 (C$5.00) per Warrant Share for a period of 36 months following the closing date of the Offering. In connection with the Offering, the Company has agreed to issue to the Agents compensation warrants (each, a “Compensation Warrants”) equal to 3.5% of the aggregate number of Units sold in the Offering. The number of Compensation Warrants will be reduced to 2% for any portion of the Offering attributable to purchasers on the President’s List. Each Compensation Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one (1) Share (each, a “Compensation Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of US$3.6045 (C$5.00) per Compensation Warrant Share for a period of three (3) years following the closing date of the Offering.
The offer and sale of the Units is being made pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement.
The Company expects to close the sale of the Units on April 25, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. In connection with the Offering, the Company expects to enter into a warrant indenture with Endeavor Trust Corporation, relating to the Warrants.
