If after the one-year anniversary of the closing of the Offering the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) is equal to or greater than $0.96 per Common Share for the preceding 10 consecutive trading days, the Company shall have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to a date that is 30 trading days following the date of the Company issues a press release disclosing such acceleration.

Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSXV. The Company expects the Warrants to commence trading on or about March 19, 2021.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to accelerate its growth plans through the use of sales and marketing initiatives, increasing operational capacity and additional product development initiatives.
