Further information on the Consolidation can be found in the management information circular dated May 8, 2024 available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

As a result of the Consolidation, the number of outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") of the Company will be reduced from 508,461,951 Common Shares to approximately 5,084,617 Post-Consolidation Common Shares, subject to adjustment for rounding. If a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional Common Share as a result of the Consolidation, (i) in the event that a fractional Common Share issuable to such shareholder is equal to or greater than 0.5 of a Common Share, the number of Post-Consolidation Common Shares issuable to such shareholder shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Common Share and (ii) in the event that a fractional Common Share issuable to such shareholder is less than 0.5 of a Common Share, the number of Post-Consolidation Common Shares issuable to such shareholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Common Share and the fractional Common Share shall be cancelled without payment of consideration. No fractional Common Shares will be issued in connection with the Consolidation.

Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), the Company's transfer agent, will act as exchange agent for the Consolidation. Registered shareholders of the Company whose Common Shares are represented by share certificates will receive a letter of transmittal from Computershare in respect of the Consolidation and each such registered shareholder will be required to complete, sign and return it to Computershare. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how to surrender the certificates representing the registered shareholder's Common Shares. If a registered shareholder does not receive a letter of transmittal in respect of its Common Shares, sample letters of transmittal will be available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Registered shareholders who hold their Common Shares through DRS statements are not required to complete a letter of transmittal.

Non-registered shareholders (i.e., beneficial shareholders) who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary (i.e., a securities dealer, bank or financial institution) should note that the intermediary may have different procedures for processing the Consolidation from those that will be put in place by the Company for registered shareholders. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary who have questions in this regard should contact their intermediary for more information.

On the Effective Date, the Company's new CUSIP number for its Post-Consolidation Shares will be 65389F407 and the new ISIN will be CA65389F4078.

The exercise price and number of Post-Consolidation Shares of the Company issuable upon the exercise of outstanding securities convertible into Post-Consolidation Shares will be proportionally adjusted upon the Effective Date of the Consolidation in accordance with the terms thereof.
