All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four month and one day hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Offering is available to all qualified investors and, in addition, to all shareholders of record of the Company as at August 21, 2020 (the "Record Date") resident in Canada who are eligible to participate under the exemption from prospectus requirement set out in Ontario Securities Commission Rule 45-501 - Exemption from prospectus requirement for certain trades to existing security holders (the "Existing Shareholder Exemption") and who continue be shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the closing of the Offering.

The Offering will remain open until 4:30 p.m. (EDT) on September 28, 2020 subject to earlier cut-off if the Offering is over-subscribed or in the event of a material change in the affairs of the Company.

Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates", "may", "could", "would", "will", or "plan". Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to the Company, the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management's expectations.
