The Company has filed the Prospectus in accordance with the provisions of National Instrument 41-101 - General Prospectus Requirements and CSE policies as part of its Listing application. The Prospectus provides for a distribution of between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 Common Shares (the "Special Warrant Shares") and 500,000 and 1,000,000 Common Share purchase warrants ("Underlying Warrants") of the Company, issuable for no additional consideration upon the exercise or deemed exercise of special warrants (the "Special Warrants") of the Company.
The Special Warrants are being issued on a private placement basis pursuant to prospectus exemptions available under applicable securities legislation (the "Special Warrant Financing"). The Special Warrant Financing is expected to close on or before February 15, 2026 (or such other date(s) as may be determined by the Company). Pursuant to the Special Warrant Financing, the Company will issue a minimum of 1,000,000 Special Warrants and a maximum of 2,000,000 Special Warrants at a price of $0.15 per Special Warrant for minimum gross proceeds of $150,000 (the "Minimum Financing Proceeds") and maximum gross proceeds of $300,000 (the "Maximum Financing Proceeds"). Each Special Warrant entitles the holder to acquire, without further payment, one Special Warrant Share and one-half of one Underlying Warrant. Each Underlying Warrant will be exercisable for the purchase of one Common Share at a price of $0.25 per share for a period of 18 months following the exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants. Each Special Warrant will automatically convert at 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the earlier of the following dates (the "Deemed Exercise Date"): (i) the date that is six months following the final closing date of the Special Warrant Financing; and (ii) the first business day following the date on which the final receipt for the final prospectus of the Company qualifying the distribution of the Special Warrant Shares and Underlying Warrants issuable on exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants has been issued to the Company by the securities regulatory authorities in a Province of Canada. Upon exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants, and without additional payment therefor, the Company will issue a minimum of 1,000,000 Special Warrant Shares and a maximum of 2,000,000 Special Warrant Shares, and a minimum of 500,000 Underlying Warrants and a maximum of 1,000,000 Underlying Warrants.
