Update on the Company's Cease Trade Orders

On February 2, 2024, the BC Securities Commission (“BCSC”) and the Ontario Securities Commission (“OSC”) issued a failure to file cease trade order (the "FFCTO"), suspending the Company's shares from trading as at February 5, 2024. The FFCTO resulted from the Company's late filing of the annual audited financial statements and the annual management's discussion and analysis certification of the annual filings (the "Annual Filings"). The Company filed an application seeking an order for a management cease trade order ("MCTO") from the BCSC. Because the Company's shares are currently halted as a result of the RTO Transaction, the BCSC rejected the MCTO application and instead issued the FFCTO. The delay in filing the Annual Filings was largely related to the RTO Transaction and the special procedure audit required as part of the financial disclosure.

On May 17, 2024, the Company filed the Annual Filings and the first quarter interim financial statements, interim management's discussion and analysis certification of the interim filings. On May 17, 2024, the Company submitted a dual application to the BCSC and the OSC for a revocation of the FFCTO. The FFCTO is still in place but the Company is confident that it will be revoked once the BCSC and the OSC have completed their review of the application. Following the revocation of the FFCTO, the Company's shares will continue to be halted as a result of the RTO Transaction until such time as the Transaction is approved by the TSXV.
