The net proceeds from the Offering will be utilized by the Company to advance acquisition opportunities, support ongoing product development, sales initiatives and working capital.

The Company may elect to pay fees to certain finders ("Finders Fees"), which may include issuance of finder's warrants (the "Finders Warrants"),  in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The Finders Warrants shall have the same terms and conditions as the Warrants comprising the Units.

The Offering is expected to close on or around January 29, 2026 (the "Closing Date") and is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSXV. The securities to be issued under the Offering, including any Finders' Warrants, will have a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing Date, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
