Shares for Debt Settlement

The Company entered into debt settlement agreements with certain debenture holders and other creditors and settled an aggregate of approximately $8.77 million indebtedness that was converted into units of the Company, with each unit comprised of one common share (each a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (each a “Warrant”) at a price per unit of $0.03, with each Warrant exercisable for 24 months at a strike price of $0.05. An aggregate of 286,477,647 Common Shares and 269,118,510 Warrants were issued upon the closing of the Shares for Debt Transaction.

Pursuant to the Shares for Debt Transaction, BDC Capital Inc. (“BDC Capital”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Business Development Bank of Canada (“BDC”), elected to convert $2,200,000 in principal and accrued interest on its 10% unsecured convertible debenture dated October 21, 2024 (the “Convertible Debenture”) into units and received an aggregate of 73,333,333 Common Shares and 73,333,333 Warrants.

Immediately prior to the Shares for Debt Transaction, BDC beneficially owned or had control or direction over, directly or indirectly, an aggregate of 4,900,000 Common Shares and $2,000,000 principal amount of its Convertible Debenture, which principal was initially convertible into units comprised of one Common Share and one-half of one Warrant at a price of $0.40 per unit, representing approximately 3.93% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis, and 9.39% of the Common Shares on a partially diluted basis, assuming conversion of the Convertible Debenture and exercise of the Warrants held by BDC Capital only.

Further to the Shares for Debt Transaction, BDC beneficially owns or has control or direction over 78,233,333 Common Shares and 73,333,333 Warrants, representing approximately 16.88% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis, and 28.23% of the Common Shares on a partially diluted basis, assuming exercise of the Warrants held by BDC Capital only.

Any transaction that BDC or BDC Capital may pursue may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the price and availability of the Company’s securities, subsequent developments affecting the Company, its business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to BDC or BDC Capital, general industry and economic conditions, the securities markets in general and other factors deemed relevant by BDC or BDC Capital.
