The Advance is provided pursuant to the Credit Agreement and a sixth amendment agreement ("Sixth Amendment") thereto, which sets out the terms and conditions of such Advance as follows:

  • The Advance shall bear interest at 8% per annum in cash interest, with a 3.5% per annum compounded monthly in arrears component that is added to the outstanding principal amount of the Advance, for a total interest rate of 11.5% per annum for the period commencing on the Subsequent Advance Closing Date;
  • A commitment fee of $40,000 shall be payable by Think to Beedie Capital (the "Commitment Fee"), which fee shall be deducted from the Advance and retained by Beedie Capital.
  • At any time during the term of the Credit Agreement, Beedie Capital may elect to convert the initial principal amount of the Advance into common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") at a conversion price of $0.35 (the "Subsequent Advance Conversion Price". The Subsequent Advance Conversion Price represents a 35% premium above the 20 trading day volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the TSXV.
  • The maturity date of the Advance will be May 10, 2026.

The Subsequent Advance Closing Date and funding of the Advance is expected to take place in the coming days subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approval of the TSXV.

Common Shares issued on conversion of the Advance will be subject to a statutory resale restriction in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, expiring four months and one day from the date of the applicable advance, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under the policies of the TSXV.
