On January 27th, the Company announced that it has reached an agreement in principle with an existing investor to invest an additional $1.0 million in the Company by way of a non-brokered private placement (the "Debenture Private Placement") of an unsecured convertible debenture and two million common share purchase warrants. The Company anticipates that key terms of the convertible debenture would include:
a maturity date of January 28, 2029;
a conversion price of $0.20 per common share; and
an interest rate of 12% per annum payable semi-annually in cash.
Each warrant would be exercisable at $0.20 per common share until January 28, 2029, subject to customary adjustments. A subsequent news release will be issued in connection with the Debenture Private Placement once financing terms have been finalized.
Concurrently with the Debenture Private Placement, the Company proposes to offer up to 8,333,334 common shares at a price of $0.12 per share for additional gross proceeds of up to approximately $1.0 million by way of a non-brokered private placement (the "Common Share Private Placement" and, together with the Debenture Private Placement, the "Private Placements"). As consideration for services provided in connection with the Common Share Private Placement, the Company may pay a finder’s fee to certain eligible finders who introduce subscribers to the financing.
The terms of the Private Placements, as announced in the Company’s news release dated January 27, 2026, otherwise remain unchanged.
The Company intends to use the aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placements to provide near-term working capital to support ongoing corporate activities and strategic initiatives while the Company continues to evaluate longer-term financing alternatives.
Closing of the Private Placements is subject to the Company obtaining all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, and entry into definitive subscription agreements. Pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, all securities issued in connection with the Private Placements will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance.
