The Company's common shares will commence trading on a post-consolidated basis effective at market opening on May 18, 2022.

Immediately prior to completion of the Consolidation, the Company has 146,114,292 common shares issued and outstanding. After giving effect to the Consolidation, the Company will have approximately 14,611,431 common shares issued and outstanding, subject to the rounding of fractional common shares.

New warrant certificates reflecting the Consolidation are not required and will not be issued.

Registered shareholders will receive a letter of transmittal from the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., providing instructions on how to exchange their share certificates representing pre-Consolidation common shares for new share certificates or Direct Registration Advice (DRS) representing post-Consolidation common shares to which they are entitled as a result of the Consolidation.
