Prospectus Summary

Our Business

We are an early-stage, Ontario-based clean technology company that has developed a highly flexible chemical recycling platform featuring three unique technologies: Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling, Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading, and Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading. As of today, through acquisition and development, we own eight US-based patents, seven granted and one pending.

Our future business model is based principally on licensing, royalties, and research and development. However, we are still investigating different business models that may be a better fit to our operations and bring greater value to our stakeholders. Monetization of our platform through a licensing model reduces our need for capital while enabling a pathway to commercialization that management of our company believes is relatively straightforward, timely, and capital efficient.

We intend to develop commercial partnerships by means of demonstration projects. Management believes this strategy will be very effective for building a pipeline of customer interests and agreements. Deliverables include reports that detail: the technology; its performance; the key parameters and operational variables; economic considerations; operational considerations, and environmental considerations including greenhouse gases (“GHG”) footprint and life cycle analysis. Among the intended business benefits are developing long-term customer and partner relationships, a better understanding of geographical territories, behaviors, and characteristics and the potential impact of the technology from environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria.

For our founders, Ofer Vicus, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and W. Marcus Trygstad, Principal Scientist, the impetus for our formation was the vision to develop hydrothermal upgrading technology for upgrading heavy oils. But through scientific research and development efforts, our management found that hydrothermal upgrading technology also could be applied beneficially in the seemingly unrelated fields of plastic and rubber tire upcycling and renewable oil upgrading. Moreover, discoveries made while pursuing those new applications provided management with deeper insights into fundamental chemistry, including operating in connection with the original work on heavy oil. From this work, we developed our current and versatile intellectual property, including our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform, as well as developing eight patents (7 granted and one pending). With support from industry participants as early as 2015, our technology demonstration projects have provided validation of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology in key applications to support pre-commercial, pilot-scale demonstrations.

We currently direct our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform toward Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling, Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading, and Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading. Our technology transforms lower-value feedstocks into useful, higher- value chemical feedstocks and fuels. Although our technology can be implemented in stand-alone operations, management believes its greatest economic relevance and impact is achieved through integration into thermal operation infrastructure at existing plants. Accordingly, we will aim to create strategic partnerships to demonstrate and implement the technology through licensing arrangements.

We have developed our technology platform to address different applications and market sectors. We are currently in the stage of scaling up our technology to a commercial process for our plastic and bitumen applications. Our first significant scale-up step is the development of a semi commercial process which will be designed, built and tested on a pilot scale and subsequently scaled up further to demonstrate on a commercial scale. We have incurred recurring losses since inception and our technology platform has not yet been tested in a commercial setting. Commercializing our technology platform presents several challenges, including that the technology may not perform as expected under real-world conditions, rapid advancements in chemical recycling technology may result in new, more efficient technologies emerging, potentially rendering parts of our technology platform as less efficient, and securing funding may be difficult given the substantial investment required to scale up the technology platform on a commercial scale. We do not have a definitive timeline for scaling up our technology to a commercial process for our plastic and bitumen applications. In the meantime, we are continuing to engage with prospective customers through technology evaluation projects to guide ongoing development.

We face a number of challenges since our technology is different from existing approaches in our industry. In particular, we are a new and different concept from the existing approaches in our industry and our technology is not yet tested in a commercial setting. We also face many of the common challenges in upscaling of chemical processes, including challenges related to mass- and heat transfer, and equipment design. Some particular challenges include the handling of solid or semi-solid feedstock (plastic waste, bitumen), and the high degree of contamination (especially in waste plastic). In addition, our industry has a significant amount of unsettled regulation and many different approaches and strategies.

To deal with these various challenges, we have adopted an early stage approach to connecting with our prospective customers and potential partners on our path towards the commercial development of our technology. The primary objective of these connections, which we describe as customer engagements, is to provide us with guidance for the development of our technology and business. Apart from the invaluable guidance in our technological development, we regard the connections in our "Customer Engagement Program" as an endorsement of our efforts by reputable and established organizations.

While we have been successful with these engagements for the evaluation of our technology so far, and we are currently in discussions with a number of prospective customers and potential partners for possible collaboration, we currently do not have any definitive partnership agreements in place.

Risks Associated with Our Business

Our business is subject to a number of risks which you should be aware before making an investment decision. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this prospectus and, in particular, should evaluate the specific factors set forth under "Risk Factors" in deciding whether to invest in our shares. These risks include but are not limited to the following:

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.
We may need to raise additional funds to support our business operations or to finance future acquisitions, including through the issuance of equity or debt securities, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business.
We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a U.S. public reporting company and maintaining a dual listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market and the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”), and our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
Our inability to comply with the Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirements could result in our common shares being delisted, which could affect the market price and liquidity of our common shares and reduce our ability to raise capital.
We have not reached profitability and currently have negative operating cash flows and we have a negative net tangible book value.
We operate in a capital-intensive industry and will require a significant amount of capital to continue operations.
We depend on certain key personnel who hold substantial knowledge and know-how related to our technology, and our success will depend on our continued ability to retain and attract such qualified personnel.
We may be involved in litigation or legal proceedings that are deemed to be material and may require recognition as a provision or a contingent liability on our financial statements.
It may be difficult for non-Canadian investors to obtain and enforce judgments against us because of our Canadian incorporation and presence.
We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common shares less attractive to investors.
As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to certain United States securities law disclosure requirements that apply to a domestic United States issuer, which may limit the information that would be publicly available to our shareholders.
As a foreign private issuer whose shares may be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we may follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain Nasdaq requirements.
The market price of our common shares may be volatile and may fluctuate in a way that is disproportionate to our operating performance.
Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation.

A prolonged and substantial decline in the price of our common shares could affect our ability to raise further working capital, thereby adversely impacting our ability to continue operations.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority sales practice requirements may also limit a shareholder's ability to buy and sell our common shares.
Issues arising from supply chain disruptions and significantly delayed lead times to obtain components and projects.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

As a company with less than US$1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the "JOBS Act." An "emerging growth company" may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;

are not required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives, which is commonly referred to as "compensation discussion and analysis";
are not required to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on our management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
are not required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the "say-on-pay," "say-on frequency," and "say-on-golden-parachute" votes);
are exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and chief executive officer pay ratio disclosure; and
will not be required to conduct an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting until our second annual report on Form 20-F following the effectiveness of our initial public offering.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions.

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions until we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. The JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an "emerging growth company" at the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, occurred, if we have more than US$1.235 billion in annual revenue, have more than US$700 million in market value of our common shares held by non-affiliates, or issue more than US$1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

Foreign Private Issuer Status

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As such, we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to United States domestic public companies. For example:

we are not required to provide as many Exchange Act reports, or as frequently, as a domestic public company;
for interim reporting, we are permitted to comply solely with our home country requirements, which may be less rigorous than the rules that apply to domestic public companies in certain aspects;
we are not required to provide the same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation;

we are exempt from provisions of Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information;
we are not required to comply with the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; and
we are not required to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and establishing insider liability for profits realized from any "short-swing" trading transaction.

We will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the same protections or information that would be made available to you were you investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

Risk Factors

An investment in our common shares involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this prospectus in evaluating our company and our business before making an investment decision about our company. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed as a result of the occurrence of any of the following risks. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.

Risks Related to This Offering

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering. After giving effect to the sale by us of 941,177 common shares at a public offering price of US$4.25 per common share, excluding the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common shares, and after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, investors in this offering can expect an immediate dilution of US$3.888 per common share. In addition, you may experience further dilution if the underwriters exercise its option to purchase additional common shares. To the extent any warrants or options that we have issued, are exercised, or convertible debentures that we have issued, is converted, you will sustain future dilution. We may also acquire other assets or businesses by issuing equity, which may result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

Our management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from any offering by us and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this offering. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that the proceeds will be invested in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for our company.

We may need to raise additional funds to support our business operations or to finance future acquisitions, including through the issuance of equity or debt securities, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business.

If we do not generate sufficient cash from operations or do not otherwise have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to support our business operations or to finance future acquisitions, we may need to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We may not be able to raise cash in future financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Financings, if available, may be on terms that are dilutive to our shareholders, and the prices at which new investors would be willing to purchase our securities may be lower than the current price of our common shares. The holders of new securities may also receive rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of existing holders of our common shares. If new sources of financing are required but are insufficient or unavailable, we would be required to modify our plans to the extent of available funding, which could harm our ability to grow our business.

We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a U.S. public reporting company and maintaining a dual listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market and the CSE, and our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

As a U.S. public reporting company, we anticipate that we will incur, particularly after we are no longer an "emerging growth company," significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a company listed solely on the CSE. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and exchange have imposed various requirements on U.S. public companies, including establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices. We may have to hire additional accounting, finance, and other personnel to assist us with becoming a U.S. public reporting company, and our efforts to comply with U.S. public company reporting requirements, and our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time towards maintaining compliance with these requirements. These requirements increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly.

We have no operating experience as a publicly traded company in the U.S.

We have no operating experience as a publicly traded company in the U.S. Although the individuals who now constitute our management team have experience managing a publicly-traded company, there is no assurance that the past experience of our management team will be sufficient to operate our company as a publicly traded company in the United States, including timely compliance with the disclosure requirements of the SEC. Following the completion of this offering, we will be required to develop and implement internal control systems and procedures in order to satisfy the periodic and current reporting requirements under applicable SEC regulations and comply with the exchange listing standards. These requirements will place significant strain on our management team, infrastructure and other resources. In addition, our management team may not be able to successfully or efficiently manage our company as a U.S. public reporting company that is subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations.

Our inability to comply with the continued exchange listing requirements could result in our common shares being delisted, which could affect the market price and liquidity of our common shares and reduce our ability to raise capital.

Our common shares have been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ADUR”. Upon completion of this offering, we will be required to meet certain qualitative and financial tests to maintain the listing of our common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If we do not maintain compliance with continued exchange listing requirements within specified periods and subject to permitted extensions, our common shares may be recommended for delisting (subject to any appeal we would file). No assurance can be provided that we will comply with these continued listing requirements. If our common shares were delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell our common shares and to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of our common shares could suffer a material decline. Delisting would also impair our ability to raise capital.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have not reached profitability and currently have negative operating cash flows and a negative net tangible book value.

For the three months ended August 31, 2024, we generated a loss of $(2,462,532), bringing our accumulated deficit to $(25,358,608).

We have minimal revenues and expect significant increases in costs and expenses as we invest in expanding our research and development, and operations. Even if we are successful in increasing revenues from sales of licensing our technologies, we may be unable to achieve positive cash flow or profitability for a number of reasons, including but not limited to, an inability to control research and development costs, increases in our general and administrative expenses, and a reduction in our licensing revenues price due to competitive or other factors. An inability to generate positive cash flow and profitability until we reach a sufficient level of sales with positive gross margins that cover operating expenses, or an inability to raise additional capital on reasonable terms, will adversely affect our viability as an operating business.

We operate in a capital-intensive industry and will require a significant amount of capital to continue operations.

If the revenue from our operations, if any, is not sufficient to cover our cash requirements, we will need to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or other securities, or the issuance of additional debt. Financing may not be available at terms that are acceptable to us, if at all.

Our ability to obtain the necessary financing for our business is subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and investor acceptance of our business plan. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of such financing unattractive or unavailable to us. If we are unable to raise sufficient funds, we will have to significantly reduce our spending, delay or cancel our planned activities, or substantially change our current operations and plans in order to reduce our cost structure. Our competitors, many of which have raised or who have access to significant capital, may be able to compete more effectively in our markets given their access to capital, if our access to capital does not improve or is further limited. We might not be able to obtain any funding, and we might not have sufficient resources to conduct our business as projected, both of which could mean that we would be forced to curtail or discontinue our operations.

We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and could cause us to incur substantial costs.

Others, including our competitors, may hold or obtain patents, copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary rights that could prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to develop, market and license our technologies, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From time to time, the holders of such intellectual property rights may assert their rights and urge us to take licenses, and/or may bring suits alleging infringement or misappropriation of such rights. We may consider entering into licensing agreements with respect to such rights, although no assurance can be given that such licenses can be obtained on acceptable terms or that litigation will not occur, and such licenses could significantly increase our operating expenses. In addition, if we are determined to have infringed upon a third party's intellectual property rights, we may be required to cease developing, marketing and/or licensing our intellectual properties, to pay substantial damages and/or license royalties, to redevelop or redesign our technologies, and/or to establish and maintain alternative branding for our technologies. In the event that we were required to take one or more such actions, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.

Patent applications for pending and future patents which are necessary to our commercial operations may be rejected by the US Patent and Trademark Office and we may have to invest significant time and resources in prosecuting our patents, including negotiating rejections.

Patent applications for our pending and future patents which are necessary to our ongoing commercial operations may be rejected by the US Patent and Trademark Office and we may have to invest significant time and resources in prosecuting our patents, including negotiating application rejections. The patent examination process is inherently subjective. Different patent examiners may interpret prior art and patent claims differently. Their opinions on novelty, non-obviousness, and adequacy of disclosure can vary. This subjectivity increases the risk of rejection, as it depends on the examiner's perspective. To be patentable, an invention must be novel (not previously disclosed) and non-obvious (not an obvious variation of existing technology). If the patent office determines that the invention lacks novelty or is too obvious, it may reject the application. Companies invest substantial time and resources in preparing patent applications. A rejection means wasted effort, delays and increased expenditures in protecting valuable innovations.

We depend on certain key personnel who hold substantial knowledge and know-how related to our technology, and our success will depend on our continued ability to retain and attract such qualified personnel

Much of the knowledge and related know-how that are foundational to our unique Hydrochemolytic™ Technology chemistry, being a core aspect of our company's value, is held in the collective development history and experience of our technology and executive team, including our CEO and co-founder, Ofer Vicus, and our Principal Scientist and co-founder, Marcus Trygstad.

As a result of this, our future success depends substantially on the continued services of these and other executive officers and key development personnel. If one or more of our executive officers or key development personnel were unable to or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we might not be able to replace them easily or at all. In addition, if any of our executive officers or key employees joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose the historical and experiential knowledge and know-how that these key professionals and team members have developed and possess.

Conflicts of interest may arise due to our directors and officers serving, or serving in the future, as directors and officers of other companies.

Certain directors and officers of our company also serve, or may serve in the future, as directors and/or officers of other companies, or have significant shareholdings in other technology companies, and consequently conflicts of interest may arise between their duties as officers and directors of our company and as officers and directors of such other companies. There can be no assurance such conflicts of interests will be resolved to the benefit of our company. However, any decision made by any of these directors and officers involving our company must be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal fairly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of our company and our shareholders. In addition, each of the directors is required to declare and refrain from voting on any matter in which these directors may have a conflict of interest in accordance with, and subject to such other procedures and remedies as applicable, under the Business Corporations Act (Canada) and other applicable laws.

We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws and any breach of such laws may have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws, including statutes, regulations, bylaws and other legal requirements. These laws relate to the generation, use, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of regulated substances, including hazardous substances (such as batteries), dangerous goods and waste, emissions or discharges into soil, water and air, including noise and odors (which could result in remediation obligations), and occupational health and safety matters, including indoor air quality. These legal requirements vary by location and can arise under federal, provincial, state or municipal laws. Any breach of such laws, regulations or requirements would have a material adverse effect on our company and its operating results.

In particular, our current and planned operations are and will be subject to environmental, health and safety regulation and standards in the jurisdictions in which we and any of our facilities operate, including but not limited to the Canadian Environmental Protection Act and the Environmental Protection Act of Ontario. These regulations require us to obtain certain approvals and permits to operate our facilities as well as mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air, water, and soil quality standards. These regulations also establish limitations on emissions and discharges to water, air and land, the generation, handling, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and employee health and safety. The time required to obtain approvals and permits by such regulatory authorities is unpredictable. Any delay in obtaining the necessary approvals and permits, or failure to obtain such approvals and permits, may significantly delay or impact our business and could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. Failure to comply with applicable environmental, health and safety laws may result in significant fines or other enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and require us to take corrective measures including significant additional capital expenditures for installation of additional equipment. We may also be required to compensate those suffering environmental loss or damage by reason of our operations and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed on it for violations of applicable environmental laws or regulations. Our management believes that environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that will impose strict standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for any non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. Changes to environmental or employee health and safety laws or more vigorous enforcement thereof could require extensive changes our operations, give rise to material liabilities or result in additional costs or delays.

Security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology networks and systems could substantially interfere with our operations and could compromise the confidentiality of our proprietary information, notwithstanding the fact that no such breaches or disruptions have materially impacted us to date.

We rely upon information technology systems and networks, some of which are managed by third-parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes and activities, including supply chain management, manufacturing, invoicing and collection of payments from our customers. Additionally, we collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, proprietary business information, the proprietary business information of our suppliers, as well as personally identifiable information of our employees, in data centers and on information technology systems. The secure operation of these information technology systems, and the processing and maintenance of this information, is critical to our business operations and strategy. Despite security measures and business continuity plans, our information technology systems and networks may be vulnerable to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to attacks by hackers or breaches due to errors or malfeasance by employees, contractors and others who have access to our networks and systems, or other disruptions during the process of upgrading or replacing computer software or hardware, hardware failures, software errors, third-party service provider outages, power outages, computer viruses, telecommunication or utility failures or natural disasters or other catastrophic events. The occurrence of any of these events could compromise our systems and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information, disrupt operations and reduce the competitive advantage we hope to derive from our investment in technology. Our insurance coverage may not be available or adequate to cover all the costs related to significant security attacks or disruptions resulting from such attacks.

Risks Related to Our Company

It may be difficult for non-Canadian investors to obtain and enforce judgments against us because of our Canadian incorporation and presence.

We are a corporation existing under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. Some of our directors and officers, and the experts named in this prospectus, are residents of Canada, and all or a substantial portion of their assets, and a substantial portion of our assets, are located outside the United States. Consequently, although we have appointed an agent for service of process in the United States, it may be difficult for holders of our common shares who reside in the United States to effect service within the United States upon our directors and officers and experts who are not residents of the United States. It may also be difficult for holders of our common shares who reside in the United States to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon our civil liability and the civil liability of our directors, officers and experts under the United States federal securities laws. Investors should not assume that Canadian courts (i) would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against us or our directors, officers or experts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or our directors, officers or experts predicated upon the United States federal securities laws or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws.

We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common shares less attractive to investors.

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the "JOBS Act". For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We will cease to be an emerging growth company upon the earliest of:

the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of US$1,000,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every five years by the SEC or more);
the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933;
the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than US$1,000,000,000 in non- convertible debt; or
the date on which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer", as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

We cannot predict if investors will find our common shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common shares and our share price may be more volatile.

Our company is an early-stage technology business that faces the risks of product and technology failure, unforeseen research and development delays, weak market acceptance, possible change in government regulatory and competition from new entrants.

Our strategy is to focus on developing our clean technology platform. Our technology platform is an early-stage technology platform developed to upgrade renewable oils as well as waste plastics, rubber, and bitumen into higher value products. We have invested and continue to invest a significant portion of our resources into this segment and will need to raise additional financing to pursue our business strategy. As with other comparable early-stage technology businesses, we face the risks of product and technology failure, unforeseen research and development delays, weak market acceptance, possible change in government regulatory and competition from new entrants. Realization of any of these risks could have a significant negative impact on our anticipated future cash flows and its growth strategy.

Our company's products and services are dependent upon advanced developments in our technologies which are susceptible to the impact of rapid technological change.

Our products and services are dependent upon advanced developments in its technologies which are susceptible to the impact of rapid technological change. There can be no assurance that our products and services will not be seriously affected by, or become obsolete as a result of, such technological changes. Further, some of our applications are currently under development and there can be no assurance that these development efforts will result in a viable product or service as conceived by our company or at all.

Given the highly competitive and rapidly evolving clean energy technology environment in which we operate in, where our products and services are subject to rapid technological change and evolving industry standards, it is important for us to constantly enhance our existing product offerings, as well as develop new product offerings to meet strategic opportunities as they evolve. Our ability to enhance our technologies, products, and services and to develop and introduce new innovative products and services to keep pace with technological developments and industry standards and the increasingly sophisticated needs of our clients and their customers will significantly affect its future success.

Our future success depends on the commercialization of our technology, including ability to design and produce new products and services, deliver enhancements to our existing products and services, accurately predict and anticipate evolving technology and respond to technological advances in our industry, and respond to our customers' shifting needs. While we anticipate that our research and development experience will allow us to explore additional business opportunities, there is no guarantee that those business opportunities will be realized. If we are unable to respond to technological changes, or if we fail to or are delayed in developing products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner, our products and services may become obsolete, which would negatively impact potential sales, profitability and the continued viability of the business.

Since developing new products and services in the clean energy sector is very expensive, we may encounter delays when developing new technology solutions and services, and the investment in technology development may involve a long payback cycle. Our future plans include significant investment in technology solutions, research and development and related product opportunities. The failure to properly manage the expanding offering of products and services as well as the failure to develop and successfully market new products and services at favourable margins could have an adverse effect on our business.

The reliability of our technology will be critical to our success.

Our reputation and ability to attract, retain and serve our customers is dependent upon the reliable performance of our technology, products and services. Our technology is new, and as such it has no history on which we can build or rely. We may experience interruptions, outages and other performance problems related to our technology, products or services. Such disruptions may be due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, human or software errors, capacity constraints and inadequate design. A future rapid expansion of our business could increase the risk of such disruptions. In some instances, we may not be able to identify the cause or causes of these performance problems within an acceptable period of time. Any errors, defects or security vulnerabilities discovered in our offerings could result in loss of revenue or delay in revenue recognition, loss of customers and increased service and warranty cost, any of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face competition within our industry that may pose significant risk to our market position, revenue potential, and overall business performance.

The clean technology industry is highly competitive, and we compete with a substantial number of companies that have greater financial, technical and marketing resources. As such, we are exposed to competition which could lead to loss of contracts or reduced margins and could have an adverse effect on our business. Our competitors may offer better solutions or value to our prospective customers or substantially increase the resources devoted to the development and marketing of products and services that compete with those of our company. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressures faced by us in the markets in which we operate will not have a material adverse effect on our business. If our competitors are successful in offering better pricing, service or products than our company, this could render our product and services offerings less desirable to merchant customers, resulting in the loss of merchant customers or a reduction in the price it could earn for its offerings.

We face vulnerability due to fluctuations in commodity prices, impacting profit margins and overall financial stability.

The potential profitability of our operations will be significantly affected by changes in the market price of various renewable fuels and other commodity prices. The level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, world supply of these minerals and stability of exchange rates can all cause significant fluctuations in renewable fuel and other commodity prices. Such external economic factors are in turn influenced by changes in international investment patterns and monetary systems and political developments. The price of diesel fuel has fluctuated widely in recent years, and future significant price declines could cause continued commercial production to be impracticable. Depending on the price of diesel fuels, potential cash flow from future operations may not be sufficient. Market fluctuations and the price of renewable fuels may render refining uneconomical. Short-term operating factors relating to the production of renewable fuels, such as the increased feedstock costs or drop in renewable fuel prices, could cause a proposed refining operation to be unprofitable in any particular period.

As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to certain United States securities law disclosure requirements that apply to a domestic United States issuer, which may limit the information that would be publicly available to our shareholders.

As a foreign private issuer, we will be exempt from certain rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that impose disclosure requirements as well as procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and "short-swing" profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as a company that files as a U.S. domestic issuer whose securities are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor are we generally required to comply with the SEC's Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material non-public information. For as long as we are a "foreign private issuer" we intend to file our annual financial statements on Form 20-F and furnish our quarterly updates on Form 6-K to the SEC. However, the information we file or furnish is not the same as the information that is required in annual and quarterly reports on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q for U.S. domestic issuers. Accordingly, there may be less information publicly available concerning us than there is for a company that files as a U.S. domestic issuer.

As a foreign private issuer whose shares are listed on Nasdaq, we may follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain Nasdaq requirements.

As a foreign private issuer whose shares will be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market. Among other things, as a foreign private issuer we may follow home country practice with regard to the director nomination procedure, and quorum at shareholders’ meetings. In addition, we may follow our home country law, instead of Nasdaq Listing Rules, which require that we obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events such as for the establishment or amendment of certain equity based compensation plans, an issuance that will result in a change of control of the company, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a 20% or more interest in the company, and certain acquisitions of the stock or assets of another company. Accordingly, our shareholders may not be afforded the same protection as provided under Nasdaq Capital Market’s corporate governance requirements. For example, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3) permits a foreign private issuer like us to follow home country practices in lieu of certain requirements of Listing Rule 5600, provided that certain requirements are met. Accordingly, we have elected to follow home country practice in lieu of the requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires companies to seek shareholder approval for the issuance of securities in connection with certain transactions other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance of our common shares at a price less than certain referenced prices, if such shares equal 20% or more of our Common Shares or voting power outstanding before the issuance. Instead, and in accordance with the Nasdaq Capital Market home country accommodations, we comply with applicable Canadian corporate and securities laws, which do not require shareholder approval for such dilutive events.

Risks Related to Our Common Shares

Because we can issue additional common shares or preferred shares, our shareholders may experience dilution in the future.

We are authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares without par value and an unlimited number of preferred shares without par value. Our board of directors has the authority to cause us to issue additional common shares or preferred shares and to determine the special rights and restrictions of the shares of one or more series of our preferred shares, without consent of our shareholders. The issuance of any such securities may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of our common shares. Given the fact that we have not achieved profitability or generated positive cash flow historically, and we operate in a capital-intensive industry with significant working capital requirements, we may be required to issue additional common equity or securities that are dilutive to existing common shares in the future in order to continue its operations. Our efforts to fund our intended business plan may result in dilution to existing shareholders. Further, any such issuances could result in a change of control or a reduction in the market price for our common shares.

Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation.

The market for our common shares may have, when compared to seasoned issuers, significant price volatility, and we expect that our share price may continue to be more volatile than that of a seasoned issuer for the foreseeable future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management's attention and resources away from the day-to-day business operations.

A prolonged and substantial decline in the price of our common shares could affect our ability to raise further working capital, thereby adversely impacting our ability to continue operations.

A prolonged and substantial decline in the price of our common shares could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common shares and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because we plan to acquire a significant portion of the funds we need in order to conduct our planned operations through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common shares could be detrimental to our liquidity and our operations because the decline may cause investors not to choose to invest in our shares. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all our planned operations and to meet our existing and future financial obligations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer, and we may go out of business.

Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common shares in the near future, our shareholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common shares in the near future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. Unless we pay dividends, our shareholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

We may be classified as a "passive foreign investment company," which may have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. shareholders.

We will be a "passive foreign investment company," or "PFIC," if, in any particular taxable year, either (a) 75% or more of our gross income for such year consists of certain types of "passive" income or (b) 50% or more of the average quarterly value of our assets (as determined on the basis of fair market value) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income (the "asset test"). In determining whether we are a PFIC, we are permitted to take into account the assets and income of our wholly owned subsidiaries because we own 100% of their stock. However, even if we take into account the assets and income of our subsidiaries, we may still be considered a PFIC for this year and possibly later years, depending on a number of factors, including the composition of our income and assets, how quickly we use our liquid assets, including the cash raised pursuant to this offering (if we determine not to, or are unable to, deploy significant amounts of cash for active purposes our risk of being a PFIC will substantially increase), the market price of our common shares, and fluctuations in that price. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules and PFIC status is a factual determination made annually after the close of each taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for this year or any future taxable year. Please refer to the paragraph titled "Taxation - Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations".

If we are a PFIC in any taxable year, a U.S. holder may incur significantly increased United States income tax on gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of the common shares and on the receipt of distributions on the common shares to the extent such gain or distribution is treated as an "excess distribution" under the United States federal income tax rules. A U.S. holder may also be subject to burdensome reporting requirements. Further, if we are a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. holder holds our common shares, we generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to that U.S. Holder for all succeeding years during which such U.S. holder holds our common shares. Please refer to the paragraph titled "Taxation - Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations".

Information on Our Company

History and Development of Our Company

Our company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on January 10, 2018 under the name “Dimension Five Technologies Inc.” and it has been operating for six years. On April 23, 2021, we changed our name to “Aduro Clean Technologies Inc”. Our principal place of business is located at 542 Newbold St., London, Ontario, N6E 2S5, Canada and our telephone number is 226-784-8889. The registered records office is located at Suite 2300, Bentall 5, 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2B5, Canada and its telephone number is 604 683-6498.

The share and per share information in this section are on a “Pre-Split” basis, but have been adjusted for the Previous Consolidation.

Since our inception until June 30, 2020, our initial business was as a technology company focused on developing, marketing, and acquiring software in the investment and securities trading industries. In July 2018, while pursuing our previous business, we purchased a software application, including source code, website and other intellectual property rights, from Zimtu Capital Corp. in exchange for the issuance of 3,333,333 common shares valued at $0.09 per common share for a total value of $300,000. The application was developed to provide investors an advantage when following the stock market, including receiving stock alerts and special notifications for public companies. We also entered into a previous licensing agreement in respect of our former software application and an application development agreement to further develop and market our software. These agreements were subsequently all cancelled by June 2020 as we looked to pursue more viable opportunities.

We also pursued several other business opportunities between September 2019 until June 2020, including entering a share exchange agreement dated December 11, 2019 with Digital Cavalier Technology Services Inc., an artificial intelligence software developer. For various reasons, including due diligence matters and economic conditions, we did not proceed with this transaction and the agreement was terminated.

Acquisition of Aduro Energy Inc.

On July 13, 2020, we entered into a letter of intent with Aduro Energy Inc. ("Aduro Energy") pursuant to which we agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Aduro Energy. Pursuant to the letter of intent, we agreed to advance a bridge loan to Aduro Energy in the principal amount of $500,000 payable through a series of promissory notes.

On August 7, 2020, we advanced $50,000 to Aduro Energy under the first promissory note and also entered into a general security agreement with Aduro Energy which secured the bridge loan against the current and after acquired property of Aduro Energy, including the Aduro Energy's intellectual property. Subsequently, Aduro advanced an additional aggregate amount of $450,000 under the bridge loan pursuant to the six additional promissory notes.

On October 22, 2020, we entered into a definitive securities exchange agreement (the "Securities Exchange Agreement") in respect of the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Aduro Energy from the shareholders of Aduro Energy by way of a share exchange. Upon completion of the transaction, Aduro Energy became a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company. For accounting purposes, the transaction represented a reverse takeover of our company by Aduro Energy.

Pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, at closing, we agreed to issue 13,333,328 common shares, pro rata, to the shareholders of Aduro Energy at a deemed price of $0.15 per pre-Consolidation common share, and issued 26,666,656 special warrants (each, a “Special Warrant”), which were divided equally between class A special warrants (the “Class A Special Warrants”) and class B special warrants (the “Class B Special Warrants”), at a deemed price equal to the greater of (on a pre-Consolidation basis): (i) 0.65 times the volume weighted average trading price of our common shares for the five trading days prior to the achievement date of the First Milestone (as defined herein), and (ii) $0.15. The Special Warrants were held in trust by Ofer Vicus, as special warrants trustee (the “Special Warrants Trustee”), until distributed to the certain individuals holding convertible notes of our company (the “Aduro Energy Noteholders”) and Aduro Energy shareholders upon our achievement of the milestones in the development of our business, as set forth below.

The first milestone (the “First Milestone”), which was to be achieved within 2 years of closing (the “Aduro Acquisition Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Securities Exchange Agreement, required us to operate a show room unit to successfully demonstrate the obtaining of product, meaning one or more taken from the group consisting of, lighter petroleum oil obtained by upgrading heavier petroleum feedstocks or its components, or deoxygenated hydrocarbons obtained from upgrading renewable oil feedstocks, or liquid hydrocarbons obtained by upgrading of certain plastic or rubber feedstocks (the “Product”), by application of Aduro Energy’s technology. The operation of the show room unit to obtain Product by application of Aduro Energy’s technology needed to be independently validated by Dr. Paul Charpentier, a professor in the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering at Western University, or such other independent third party agreed upon by us and Aduro Energy.

The second milestone (the "Second Milestone") requires achievement of any one or more of the following additional business objectives within 4 years of Aduro Acquisition Closing (on a pre-Consolidation basis):

SUMMARY OF CURRENT PROJECTS

Brightlands Chemelot Campus

On November 2, 2021, we entered into partnership discussions with Brightlands Chemelot Campus (“Brightlands”), an international shared innovation community located in Geleen, Limburg, the Netherlands. The objective of the proposed partnership is to complete an installation that applies Hydrochemolytic™ Technology, a novel technology developed by our company that deconstructs hard to recycle chain growth polymers at temperatures lower than those used in current technologies, to demonstrate, on a tons per day scale, the conversion of post-consumer polyethylene to useful feedstock for chemical processes. Interest in this project by Brightlands is a result of its comprehensive and detailed review of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology. The review concluded that Hydrochemolytic™ Technology offers distinct advantages over traditional pyrolysis for bringing polyethylene into the circular economy through chemical recycling to obtain valuable, high-purity products, such as value-added chemicals or feedstock for production of new, virgin polyethylene. Brightlands is an innovation park in the Netherlands that is home to many global organizations working in the future chemical industry as it relates to electrification, recycling and the use of biogenic raw materials. We are providing regular updates to Brightlands on our operational progress. Both organisations continue to evaluate the optimal strategy and timeline for the potential partnership and related project based on the stage of development of Aduro’s pilot plant plans. We have not yet entered into a definitive partnership agreement in connection with this project.

On March 2, 2023, we announced a partnership with Chemelot Innovation and Learning Labs (“CHILL”) to execute an experimentation program at Brightlands in Geleen, Limburg, the Netherlands, with the aim to optimize our next generation chemical recycling platform and to accelerate our path to commercialization. We agreed to provide financial support to CHILL and in return, we receive access to skilled researchers, specialized equipment for testing and analysis of data, and additional services including access to CHILL partner events and public relations campaigns.

Under their “Community for Development” program, CHILL executes focused experiments around the Hydrochemolytic™ process for plastics upcycling. The engagement provides an opportunity for us to work on several defined-scope projects that accelerate the scale-up of our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology . These projects complement our scale-up and research activities currently being completed, including the commissioning and operations of the pilot-scale R2 Plastic reactor and the work being conducted at Western University on different contaminants in plastic feedstocks. All intellectual property generated from the projects conducted at CHILL is owned by our subsidiary, Aduro Energy. As of the date hereof, this project is ongoing and is anticipated to be completed by the end of the calendar year 2024.

On June 15, 2023, we announced the establishment of our European subsidiary, Aduro Clean Technologies Europe BV, based in Geleen, Netherlands. Our European subsidiary serves as the European hub and a conduit for achieving strategic goals in the region. The Netherlands was selected due to our robust regional relationships, including its partnerships with Brightlands Chemelot Campus and Chemelot Innovation and Learning Labs. Aduro Clean Technologies Europe is focussed on advancing the Hydrochemolytic™ process for plastics upcycling within the European market with the primary goal of constructing a future demonstration unit at the Brightlands site, showcasing our patented Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform for tackling hard-to-recycle mixed plastics, mainly those rejected from other processes such as mechanical recycling.

Switch Energy

On November 9, 2021, we entered into discussions with Switch Energy Corp. ("Switch Energy"). The goal of these discussions was to develop a framework whereby the two companies can work together to design, build, install, and operate a pilot plant to process waste polyethylene and other types of waste plastics, such as polypropylene. Switch Energy has over a decade of experience with the collection of agricultural waste, design and development of plastic washing, mechanical shredding, feed systems setup, and product offtake sales and marketing, making it the ideal partner for this pilot plant. We expect to provide expertise in the Hydrochemolytic™ Technology process design, including identifying optimal finished product specifications and engagement with the chemical and petrochemicals industry for long-term offtake engagement.

On March 29, 2022, following the discussions that commenced in November 2021, we entered into a letter of intent with Switch Energy, a recycler and operator participating in Canada’s agricultural and industrial film recycling program by owning and operating the largest collection program for agricultural waste in the province of Ontario. The project was a staggered plan with three main phases. Phase one, which commenced immediately after entering the letter of intent, included the design and development of a pre-treatment process and unit to handle agricultural waste plastics, test runs, and process optimization, and the provision of the feedstock required. Phase two included the design, building, and commissioning of the pilot plant. Phase three will detail the framework for expanding the pilot project into a post-pilot commercial phase. Plans for the pilot are to start with waste polyethylene from agricultural waste followed by polypropylene and then to demonstrate the technological benefits of processing waste polystyrene. The small-scale design represents an opportunity to provide a cost-effective solution to the agricultural waste sector. Harvesting value from this waste resource while avoiding fuel, emissions, and other environmental costs associated with the processing and transporting to centralized facilities, incineration, or landfill. The pilot plant will be scaled at a tons-per-day capacity. Thorough study and demonstration of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for upcycling real-world waste polyethylene was completed in mid-2023, with the project now progressing into process development of the continuous-flow reactor where efforts are being directed at finalizing a rigorous model to support engineering of the commercial process. There are no steps or milestones set out in the letter of intent with Switch Energy. The project is solely for the purpose of evaluating our technology and there is no guarantee that we will enter into any formal relationship with Switch Energy following completion of the project.

University of Western Ontario

On October 27, 2022, a joint research project by our company, in partnership with the Western University, titled "Tuning Supercritical Fluids for Polymer Recycling to Monomers and Chemicals," was approved and awarded $1.15 million in non-repayable funds by the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council ("NSERC") Alliance and Mitacs Accelerate Grants Program ("Mitacs"). Over the duration of the three-year research project, which commenced in November 2022, our company will contribute $382,500 (plus tax), with NSERC and Mitacs contributing a total of $1,147,500. As of the date hereof, this project is active and we continue to work with Western University on the technology evaluation goals.

On February 2, 2023, we provided a progress update on our joint research project “Tuning Supercritical Fluids for Polymer Recycling to Monomers and Chemicals”. The three-year research project, led by Dr. Paul A. Charpentier and Dr. Cedric L. Briens of University of Western Ontario began in January 2023. As at February 2, 2023, the principal investigators had recruited a team of 6 research members who started working on the first-year project deliverables. In year one of the project, the research team conducted a thorough review of the literature on intrinsic and extrinsic contaminants in different plastics and composites. They will also design, build, and commission a view cell reactor system to study different types of plastics. Additionally, experiments will be performed in a batch reactor system to optimize the understanding of the behaviour of additives and fillers, as well as the study of the solubility of chain and step-growth plastics in different solvents. The ultimate objective of the project is to determine the interactions and product quality of mixed plastics for upcycling.

Shell Gamechanger Program

On November 3, 2022, following a rigorous selection process, we were accepted for participation in the Shell GameChanger Program for an evaluation of our technology. The Shell GameChanger Program is an accelerator program operated by Shell plc, a British multinational oil and gas company headquartered in London, England. Shell plc is a public limited company with a primary listing on the London Stock Exchange and secondary listings on Euronext Amsterdam and the New York Stock Exchange. The Shell GameChanger Program is designed to evaluate and provide mentorship to early stage businesses developing innovative solutions that have the potential to drastically impact the future of energy and the transition to net-zero emissions. We were selected by the Shell GameChanger Program to apply our novel Hydrochemolytic™ Technology to produce sustainable naphtha cracker feedstock from polyethylene and polypropylene, individually or on a mixed basis, and to also convert polystyrene into useful platform chemicals. Hydrochemolytic™ Technology deconstructs hard-to-recycle chain growth polymers at temperatures lower than those used in current technologies. While legacy technologies produce complex product mixtures that require excess investment of resources for further processing and purification, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology is expected to create higher-value, saturated products from polyethylene and polypropylene, in high yield and purity using lower energy, and to be more tolerant to feedstock contaminants. The Hydrochemolytic™ Technology final output may be then directly used for the production of new plastics in support of full circularity.

To support the project, the Shell GameChanger Program contributed a confidential and non material amount of nondilutive funding to Aduro with the contribution payments being spread over six project phases, each phase and associated payment being contingent on meeting the technical objectives set for the previous phase. In addition, the Shell GameChanger Program provided technical expertise aimed to help us develop reliable process designs and optimize the Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for commercial implementation. The Shell GameChanger Program also provided mentorship to Aduro in developing its commercial strategy and market position. The Shell GameChanger Program was a 12 month, 6 phase project, starting from small scale batch reactors, moving through a continuous flow reactor and into design basis of commercial style facilities. The Shell GameChanger Program aims to support the rapid movement of the process to commercialization while reducing the developmental risk for the technology.

On September 5, 2023, we announced that we had passed the midpoint of our project as part of the Shell GameChanger program with the successful completion of the first three of six phases. The tasks outlined for the first three phases involved evaluating the performance of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology using pure and mixed plastic feeds, measuring the impact of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology when contaminants are present, and understanding and optimizing the key additives in the process for effectiveness and economics. All three phases achieved results that aligned with mutually agreed performance targets. As mentioned above, in July 2023, we initiated commissioning runs of the R2 Plastic reactor for Hydrochemolytic™ Plastic Upcycling. The commissioning aligned well with the performance targets outlined for phase four, including demonstrating the efficiency of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology process in a continuous flow set-up, focusing on operability, product quality, and yield. Additionally, we examined how the process transitions from batch to a continuous system and evaluated the ‘tunability’ to maximize naphtha cracker feed yield.

Our participation in the Shell GameChanger Program was for technology evaluation only, with no commercial or ongoing commitments by Shell plc or the Shell GameChanger Program to our company. The non-dilutive funding we received from the Shell GameChanger Program was minimal relative to our capitalization and was short term, and not regular or recurring, in nature. Our participation in the Shell GameChanger Program is nearing the final stages and any future relationship with Shell plc and/or the Shell GameChanger Program will depend solely on future agreements, if any. As of the date hereof, we have no such agreements for any further relationship or definitive partnership agreement with Shell plc or the Shell GameChanger Program.

R2 Plastic Reactor

On December 1, 2022, we announced that we had completed construction and mechanical assembly of our pilot-scale Hydrochemolytic™ continuous flow plastic (“R2 Plastic”) reactor. The R2 Plastic unit is our customer engagement unit and is designed to handle various plastic feedstocks such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene as single-stream materials, followed by a mixture of these feedstock streams. The R2 Plastic will also be used to evaluate the impact of materials found in multilayer plastics, such as paper, paper board, polymeric materials, metalized layers, and aluminum foil, effectively advancing our plans of processing higher contaminated materials which are currently rejected by existing technologies. This is important data that will support our established scale-up and optimization program for the next generation reactor.

On March 30, 2023, we announced that we started the commissioning phase of the pilot-scale R2 Plastic reactor. The Hydrochemolytic^TM Plastic Upcycling technology converts waste chain growth polymers into new, valuable resources. The R2 Plastic system was successfully installed in its operating location in Sarnia, Ontario. System integrity testing was completed and the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) and emissions registrations were approved and received. The commissioning of the system was commenced, and all electrical and control systems were energized and tested. Prior to the commissioning, the R2 Plastic reactor had received all of its regulatory compliances including safety. We confirm that the R2 Plastic reactor is operated under the regulatory safety certification of the Technical Standard and Safety Authority. The R2 Plastic reactor is directed towards research and development as well as for customer engagement. The R2 Plastic reactor is currently operating successfully at our pilot site in Sarnia, Ontario and is not operated at our London Lab as the commissioning of the process happened several months before the London lab was completed. To maximize efficiency of operations, the R2 Plastic reactor will continue to operate at our pilot site in Sarnia, Ontario for the time being.

Additional Participants in Customer Engagement Program

On October 11, 2023, we announced the addition of two new participants to our Customer Engagement Program ("CEP"). Our CEP enables interested organizations to conduct controlled technology evaluation sessions of the Hydrochemolytic™ Technology . The program provides an opportunity for potential customers to gain in-depth knowledge about the technology, discuss specific issues and needs, and collaborate on targeted future projects. It also provides for the opportunity us to perform analysis and experimentation using diverse waste polymers sourced from different locations and businesses across the world, each with varying compositions and contaminant levels. This data supports our established scale-up program and advances the design and buildout of the subsequent tons per day continuous flow reactor unit. The insights gained also contribute to the creation of solutions tailored to meet the specific needs and challenges encountered across different industry sectors, regions, and organizations. The CEP is designed to showcase the real-world potential of our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology . Central to the program is our dedication to engaging early with organizations interested in exploring and possibly adopting our innovative technology. We provide a methodical process for evaluating low-value feedstocks, highlighting their transformation into high-value resources. Our engagement spans multiple stages, from initial lab scale bench reactor assessments to advanced testing in the continuous flow reactor, offering insights into the technology's scalability. A key feature of the CEP is the development of an extensive library that details the compositions of diverse low-value feedstock materials. Through the CEP, our goal is to cultivate partnerships with key industry stakeholders and to pave the way for upcoming commercial projects. As of the date hereof, these technology evaluation stage projects are active and ongoing.

On November 30, 2023, we announced the expansion of our Phase 1 testing scope with the CEP participants mentioned above. The additional testing included a more diverse range of waste plastic materials, specifically targeting those with higher concentrations of PET, polyurethane, metals, and other challenging contaminants. This testing expansion indicated the participant's interest in assessing the broader capabilities of our technology. The expanded scope provides important data that will support our development and scale-up program as well as increase the respective project funding committed for Phase 1 testing by 450%.

On March 5, 2024, we announced the onboarding of a leading, global multinational food packaging company ("MFP Company") to our CEP. MFP Company is a prominent player in the global food processing and distribution sector, boasting a portfolio of well‐known brands. It operates in over 15 countries and generates multi‐billion‐ dollar annual revenues. At the core of its operations, MFP Company integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, focusing on innovation and efficiency. The MFP Company is dedicated to recycling or recovering 90% of its solid waste and aims to reduce plastic use, increase the use of biodegradable and recycled materials, and minimize the use of virgin plastic. The technical evaluation project between our company and MFP Company is focused on assessing the potential of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for recycling the MFP Company's plastic waste from food packaging. Through this collaboration, we are conducting direct tests of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology on the specific types of plastic waste produced by MFP Company. Our objective is to showcase the technology's effectiveness and gain a deeper understanding of the unique waste management challenges faced by the food industry. The goal is to highlight the advantages of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology to MFP Company and develop a customized chemical recycling solution tailored to the specific needs for recycling food packaging plastic waste, positioning Hydrochemolytic™ Technology as a viable solution for advanced recycling in the food industry. Our relationship with MFP Company is currently at the technology evaluation stage, with ongoing purchase orders for non material and confidential payment amounts made to our company in exchange for evaluation data that we provide in return. However, we do not have a definitive partnership agreement with MFP Company as of the date hereof.

On March 27, 2024, we announced the onboarding of a leading, multinational building materials company ("MBM Company") to our CEP. MBM Company, with extensive manufacturing operations across over 20 countries and a global distribution reach, generates multi-billion-dollar annual revenues. MBM Company is recognized for its vast range of building materials and is dedicated to promoting sustainability through material circularity-emphasizing the recycling and reuse of materials across its product lines.

Overview of Our Customer Engagement Program

The companies and other entities discussed in the section entitled “Summary of Current Projects” are part of our Customer Engagement Program. These include Switch Energy, Prospera, CHILL, Brightlands, the Shell Game Changer Program, MFP Company, MBM Company and others. As discussed herein, we have adopted an approach where we engage with prospective customers and potential partners at a relatively early stage in our development process. The primary objective of these connections is to provide us with guidance for the commercial development of our technology and business. In addition, we regard the connections in our Customer Engagement Program as an endorsement by reputable and established organizations of the potential of our unique technology and business focus.

Our Customer Engagement Program has three successive stages as follows:

1. Technology evaluation - prospective customers are evaluating the benefits of our technology. We are currently in this stage with all of our prospective customers and potential partners.

2. Collaboration - prospective customers are provided with a more in depth understanding of our technology with possible customization for their specific needs.

3. Commercialization - customers will commit to commercial projects pursuant to definitive agreements, as appropriate. We have not yet entered any definitive agreements for commercial projects.

Each of the three CEP stages can have multiple phases with varying timelines depending on the agreed scope of work and data provided to each participant.

Presently, all of the relationships with prospective customers and potential partners in our Customer Engagement Program are in the technology evaluation and collaboration stages and we do not have any definitive partnership or material collaboration agreements in place. Our engagement with prospective customers is largely driven by ongoing purchase orders whereby prospective customers agree to certain milestones or activities as part of our research and development (“R&D”) roadmap. Following completion of the milestone, we report back to the prospective customers with data to assist the customer in evaluating our technology, analyzing how the technology is performing over time, and gaining a deeper understanding of how a future commercial solution can support the customers’ commercial requirements. The purchase orders contain specific technical deliverables for each particular engagement which are required for its completion. However, the purchase orders do not contain any milestones that guarantee any further work or agreements thereafter. We consider these engagements to be normal course evaluations of our technology. As of the date hereof, there are no guarantees that any subsequent purchase orders, letters of intent or definitive partnership agreements will result from any of our existing relationships with prospective customers.

Reverse Stock Split

Overview

Following closing of the transaction with Aduro Energy, our company's sole business is now the business carried out by Aduro Energy. Aduro Energy has developed a novel chemical conversion process to transform waste plastics and low-grade renewable oils into renewable fuels and specialty chemicals. Aduro Energy is an early-stage, Ontario-based clean technology company that has developed a highly flexible chemical recycling platform featuring three unique technologies: Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling, Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading, and Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading.

As of the date hereof, through acquisition and development, we own eight patents, seven granted and one pending. Our future business model is based principally on licensing, royalties, and research and development. However, we are still investigating different business models that may be a better fit to our operations. Monetization of our platform through licensing model reduces our need for capital while enabling a pathway to commercialization that our management believes is relatively straightforward, timely, and capital efficient. We are developing commercial partnerships by means of demonstration projects. Our management believes that this strategy has been demonstrated to be very effective for building a pipeline of customer interests and agreements. Among the intended business benefits are developing long term customer and partner relationships, a better understanding of geographical territories behaviors and characteristics and the potential impact of the technology from an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. Additional benefits are in gaining direct marketing information and guidelines that helps us shape our value proposition and tailor our offering to be most competitive in the market. In addition to commercial partnerships, partnering with organisations such as research partners enable significant leveraging of the dollar value shareholders are committing into our company while advancing our commercialisation interests.

For the founders of our company, Ofer Vicus, Chief Executive Officer, and Marcus Trygstad, Principal Scientist, the impetus for the formation of our company was the vision to develop Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for upgrading heavy oils. However, through scientific research and development efforts, it was discovered that certain principals of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology could be applied beneficially in the seemingly unrelated fields of plastic and tire rubber upcycling and renewable oil upgrading, leading ultimately to discovery of the more powerful and versatile technology that overcomes severe limitations and related approaches practiced by others. As the key element of our technology platform and the basis for our commercialization trusts into plastics upcycling and bitumen upgrading, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology and its application represents essential "Intellectual Property" in the form of proprietary know-how and eight patents (seven granted and one pending).

The purpose of our technology platform is to enable commercialization solutions that transform lower-value feedstocks into useful, higher-value chemical feedstocks and fuels. Such solutions offer the possibility for stand-alone implementation, but management believes their greatest economic relevance and impact will be achieved through integration into thermal operation infrastructure at existing plants. Accordingly, we aim to create strategic partnerships to demonstrate and implement the technology through licensing arrangements.

A key strength of our approach is technology versatility that may confer both economic and operational flexibility to minimize implementation risks and costs and maximize implementation speed while adapting to a given customer's specific needs. The following are examples of specific applications, under consideration or being pursued, which illustrate the technology's adaptability:

1. Plastics Upcycling: This application converts waste plastics into feedstocks for producing new plastics or hydrocarbon fuels. Possible implementations may include at (a) existing oil refineries for mass processing of waste plastic and tire rubber into petroleum streams; and (b) small and large waste disposal sites for direct production of fuels and high-value chemical feedstocks, thereby avoiding the negative impact of transportation emissions and reducing the footprint of the landfill in an advanced material processing ecosystem; and (c) manufacturers of plastic products interested in avoiding disposing of volumes of waste cuts into the waste streams.

2. Bitumen Upgrading: Principally directed toward upstream bitumen production operations in Alberta but also may be applied in the 128 petroleum refineries in North America (or the 280 refineries globally) to enhance yields from the bottom-of-the-barrel bitumen output from vacuum distillation units.

3. Upgrading of Corn Distillers Oil: A byproduct from ethanol production, this and other renewable oils may be converted to renewable diesel feedstocks by the application of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology to produce an intermediate feedstock and the subsequent conversion of the latter by thermocatalytic deoxygenation also developed and patented by us. Besides integration into the backend of plants that produced ethanol from corn, this process may be applied to renewable oils from crushed oil seed operations, beef and poultry processing plants. It also may be integrated with existing biodiesel plants to produce renewable feedstocks for diesel and other specialty chemicals.

We have completed a larger laboratory facility in London, Ontario, Canada. The new 4000 sq. ft. site will be used to support advancement of our commercialization efforts including the CEP, technology demonstration to potential customers, and research and development of new technologies to expand our technology platform.

Technology

Our mission is to develop and commercialize applications based on our novel, patent-protected Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform that enables the transformation of lower-value feedstocks into higher-value chemicals and fuels. In doing so, we believe it addresses important and pressing issues faced by the global community. Originally conceived to radically enhance aspects of petroleum processing, the patent protected technology is based on leveraging unique properties of water to achieve two important outcomes. First is the transformation of intractable post-consumer plastics and tire rubber, as well as renewable oils and bitumen, into manageable liquid intermediates. Then follows their stabilization by the generation of a latent form of hydrogen derived from cheap, non-petroleum sources such as biomass ("H-source"). This second step performs the function of decades-old processes that rely on fossil-fuel-derived molecular hydrogen applied at elevated temperatures and pressure in the presence of expensive catalysts. By contrast, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology activates the renewable H-source under significantly milder conditions without the requirement for such catalysts.

We believe our technology is novel since it is founded upon seven granted US-based patents, and one US-based patent pending, and because novelty is one of the main preconditions for receiving a patent grant. In particular, we have discovered a unique combination of chemical reactions occurring concurrently under selected circumstances to achieve the highly desirable objective of breaking down stubborn and contaminated mixtures of polymers to much more valuable products. Examples include the conversion of mixed plastic waste to input for base chemical processes like steam cracking, and the conversion of highly viscous bitumen to pipeline-transportable and processable look-alike crude oil.

In contrast with traditional approaches designed to process petroleum feedstocks, our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology is highly efficient, operating at relatively low temperatures. We believe this makes it significantly more environment-friendly than established alternatives like energy-intensive pyrolysis, water mediated pyrolysis, Hydrothermal Liquefication "HTL", or gasification. It is also highly configurable, supporting the vision of stand-alone, distributed deployment on smaller scales and volume feedstock or integration with existing operations, from biodiesel and ethanol plants to facilities for waste collection and recycling, to petrochemical plants. Our technology also offers the possibility for crude oil upgrading that is greener and cleaner. Instead of being a single-purpose technology, our Hydrochemolytic chemical recycling platform solutions can be applied in multiple ways that have a reduced operational and environmental footprint, compared with traditional approaches. Equally important, it also reduces the environmental impact associated with petroleum production and processing, landfilling, waste incineration and gasification, and unscrupulous dumping in the oceans.

The core Hydrochemolytic™ Technology developed by our team of experienced scientists and engineers is highly versatile. Through their ingenuity and knowledge, they have enhanced and tuned it to address problems in three important techno-commercial sectors.

1. Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling

Our patented Hydrochemolytic™ Technology can process harder to recycle plastic that would otherwise end up in landfills or be incinerated, thereby regenerating higher volumes of waste plastics. The application of Hydrochemolytic™ Technology to waste polyethylene and polypropylene can generate high-quality feed for naphtha crackers that produce starting materials for platform chemicals and more plastics. Polystyrene, which is problematic for some chemical recycling technologies, also can be converted to valuable chemicals that include the starting material used to make polystyrene. All of this increases the volume of feedstock that could be turned for production of products by applying a circular philosophy. A significant portion of this waste, such as mixed plastic waste and contaminated packaging films, cannot be recycled mechanically and is either incinerated or discarded in the environment. Our regenerative chemical recycling technology picks up where mechanical recycling leaves off. It can convert difficult-to-recycle plastic waste into useful platform chemicals, feedstocks for the production of more plastics in a circular regime, and/or transportation fuels.

2. Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading

Our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology also improves the quality and value of bitumen to greatly reduce the requirement for diluent so that producers can increase their profitability. The relatively low operating temperatures reduce energy requirement and associated carbon emissions, keeping them out of the atmosphere. Hydrochemolytic™ Technology efficiently deconstructs the heavy components into lighter molecules. It does so without relying on the common technique of cracking at elevated temperatures, nor is it a hydrothermal approach or one that uses supercritical water. Instead, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology involves chemical conversion. It works with water at lower temperatures through chemical reactions that selectively cut components like heavy asphaltenes into smaller pieces and then stabilizes them. This lowers viscosity and density to reduce or eliminate the requirement for dilution. Beyond that, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology -upgraded bitumen also has lower values for sulfur, metals, and acid number. Metals recovered through Hydrochemolytic™ Technology -based upgrading, which include nickel and vanadium, potentially may generate additional revenue as high-value commodities for diverse applications including power-grid energy storage batteries.

3. Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading

Unlocking the hydrocarbon content of seeds or fruit of plants offers the possibility to reduce the demand for "below surface" crude oil (petroleum). But that is not easy because of the way oxygen is bound up in renewable oils. Removing that oxygen is necessary to maximize their usefulness as feedstocks for chemicals and fuels. The challenge is to do quickly what happened in the geological time frames that eliminated oxygen from petroleum. Chemical reactions that selectively eliminate oxygen from renewable oils produce high purity hydrocarbons that can serve as feedstocks for fuels and chemicals normally produced from petroleum. The process can be configured for stand- alone operation or integrated with existing biofuel operations to increase their efficiency.

We have established a patent strategy for our technology based on initial lab experiments that explored early Hydrochemolytic™ concepts. Our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology is protected by the following seven patents and one patent pending as of the date hereof:

Technology Development Status

We have developed our technology platform to address different applications and market sectors. Our company has developed a significant amount of proprietary know-how which is the basis for our patents. We expect to continue to generate additional new patents in the future and are currently in the stage of scaling up our technology to a commercial process for our plastic and bitumen applications.

The first significant step towards the development of a continuous process as applied in commercial environments have been made with the construction of a semi-continuous technology demonstration reactor that is generating relevant data to support ongoing projects and the technology scaleup. We are now moving into developing our semi commercial process and have completed and planned a number of projects which constitute the necessary steps towards our design of the integral industrial process in 2024. This process will be designed, built and tested on a pilot scale and subsequently scaled up further to demonstrate on a commercial scale.

Challenges

The Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform is a new and fundamentally different concept from the existing approaches in our industry. We are not aware of any other companies utilizing a commercial Hydrochemolytic™ type process. However, many of the challenges of our technology are characteristic of, and not fundamentally different from, the upscaling of chemical processes, and include challenges related to mass- and heat transfer, and equipment design. Some particular challenges include the handling of solid or semi-solid feedstock (plastic waste, bitumen), and the high degree of contamination (especially in waste plastic). Such challenges are not new and have been addressed by many other companies with well-established technologies.

In addition, our industry has a significant amount of unsettled regulation and many approaches to dealing with waste plastic streams, alternative valorization strategies, corporate strategies and competing technologies. As a result of this, we have adopted a very early stage approach to connecting with our prospective customers and potential partners on our path towards the commercial development of our technology. We refer to this approach as our "Customer Engagement Program".

Customer Engagement Program

We have adopted an approach where we engage with prospective customers and partners at a relatively early stage in our development process. These prospective customers and potential partners include petrochemical companies (that are looking to source circular feedstock to meet future circularity regulation), waste management companies (that must optimize the value realized from waste), users of plastic goods such as packaging for fast moving consumer goods (that are and will be confronted with "Extended Producer Responsibility" and the related costs), and resource companies (that need ways to transport bitumen to have it converted into more valuable products).

The primary objective of these connections, which we describe as customer engagements, is to provide us with guidance for the development of our technology and business. As discussed above, our industry has a very unsettled regulatory landscape, various waste plastic streams, alternative valorization strategies, corporate strategies and competing technologies. A secondary objective of our Customer Engagement Program is to access complementary knowledge within the larger, and more established organizations of our potential partners. Apart from the invaluable guidance in our technological development, we regard the connections in our Customer Engagement Program as an endorsement of our efforts by reputable and established organizations.

Our Customer Engagement Program has three successive stages as follows:

1. Technology evaluation - prospective customers are evaluating the benefits of our technology.

2. Collaboration - prospective customers are provided with a more in depth understanding of our technology with possible customization for their specific needs.

3. Commercialization - customers are committing to commercial projects.

We have been successful with these engagements to date in respect of the evaluation of our technology. We are currently in discussion with a number of prospective customers and potential partners for possible collaborations. However, we currently do not have any definitive partnership or collaboration agreements yet in place.

The Business Model

Our business model is based principally on licensing, royalties, and research and development. However, we are still investigating different business models that may be a better fit to our operations. Monetization of our clean energy platform through licensing model reduces our needs for cash while enabling a pathway to commercialization that is relatively straightforward and fast. We aim to develop commercial partnerships by means of demonstration projects. This strategy has been demonstrated to be very effective for securing customer feedstock and funding commitments. Deliverables include reports that detail: the technology; its performance (including yields and mass balance); the key parameters and operational variables including chemical characterization of the feedstock and products; economic considerations covering product value and operational costs; operational considerations, and environmental considerations including GHG footprint and life cycle analysis. Among the business benefits are developing long term relations, evaluation of different business models and better understanding of geographical territories behaviors and characteristic. We are currently in discussions with several organizations to establish a project to substantiate and quantify our GHG footprint and provide a life cycle analysis that will be unique to our platform and products. We anticipate this project will commence during the 2024 calendar year and will operate in parallel to the development of our “Next Generation Process”, being the development of our planned semi-commercial pilot. The GHG footprint and life cycle analysis will help us further understand the environmental impact of our products and processes, and provide insight into where more sustainable practices can be incorporated, if any.

Locations and Facilities

We have a leased laboratory facility where we store our research and development pilot units located at 1283 Plank Road, Sarnia, Ontario, N7T 7H3, Canada.

We also have our own laboratory facility at 542 Newbold St., London, Ontario, N6E 2S5, Canada.

Marketing

We are directing our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology into applications or uses in three principal markets. The following provides further explanation about markets and customers.

Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling

Demand for a solution to handle plastic waste has been gaining attention on diverse fronts globally, being driven by growing public concern, media coverage, attention from various global agencies, and policy development by local and national governments. The global plastics pollution problem is in the spotlight due to the sheer quantities of plastic waste and the absence of integrated, large-scale solutions.

Key potential customers include the following:

1. refineries;

2. polymer producers;

3. global and local energy companies;

4. remote communities;

5. national and International waste collection companies;

6. municipalities; and

7. governments.

Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading

Alberta heavy oil industry is under pressure to develop more efficient, more environmentally friendly methods to transport heavy crude oils. Likewise, the range of traditional options that the industry has relied on is being severely tested and seems to deliver incremental improvements where a paradigm change is needed. Our Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading technology represents an example of such sort of change, which will enable producers to recover profit margins while gaining significant environmental benefits. This can be done by reducing crude blending costs while increasing the value of the final product. Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading does this by minimizing or eliminating the cost, energy and resources required to procure and deliver light hydrocarbon diluent commonly used to reduce bitumen viscosity and density. Blending is limited to improving the physical properties of bitumen but limits the amount of extracted bitumen that can be transported in the pipeline as part of the pipeline volume is now occupied by the blending diluent. On the other hand, our Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading process improves both the physical and chemical properties of the bitumen, thus reducing or eliminating the diluent required and increasing the volume fraction of crude. This could effectively increase the net capacity of pipelines by as much as one-third.

Key potential customers include:

1. Canadian provincial heavy oil producers;

2. international heavy oil producers; and

3. refineries.

Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading

This technology offers the possibility to transform renewable oils into renewable motor fuels, SAF, and specialty chemicals in scalable formats that can be integrated straightforwardly into existing operations.

Potential customers include:

1. ethanol producers;

2. seed crushing plants that produce renewable oils;

3. biodiesel plants seeking to respond to market demands;

4. farmers seeking diversification through growing non-food oil seed crops on marginal lands; and

5. poultry and beef producers.

Strategic Relationships

Our future business model is based principally on licensing, royalties, and research and development. However, we are still investigating different business models that may be a better fit to its operations. Monetization of our clean energy platform through licensing model reduces our needs for cash while enabling a relatively pathway to commercialization that is relatively straightforward and fast.

We aim to develop commercial partnerships by means of demonstration projects. This strategy has been demonstrated to be very effective for securing customer feedstock and funding commitments. Deliverables include reports that detail: the technology; its performance (including yields and mass balance); the key parameters and operational variables including chemical characterization of the feedstock and products; economic considerations covering product value and operational costs; operational considerations, and environmental considerations including GHG footprint and life cycle analysis. Among the business benefits are developing long term relations, evaluation of different business models and better understanding of geographical territories behaviors and characteristic.

Research and Development

We have discovered and developed the chemistry that undergirds our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for Hydrochemolytic Bitumen Upgrading, Hydrochemolytic Renewables Upgrading, for converting renewable oils to renewable chemicals and fuels, and Hydrochemolytic Plastics Upcycling that recovers value from components in plastic waste for the circular economy. Thus, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology is not one thing, but an approach or platform that we configure for different applications. Certainly, doing that depends critically on an understanding of how Hydrochemolytic™ Technology works at the molecular level. But equally, it requires deep knowledge about the unique properties of the various feedstocks. Beyond that, we have the chemical engineering expertise required for scaling up to commercial reality. We are in full possession of our intellectual property that includes critical know-how and patents. These are the product our creative, skilled team of R&D chemists and engineers, including our Principal Scientist. Yet, our capability to continue developing and commercializing Hydrochemolytic™ Technology in diverse applications does not reside with any individual, but is distributed amongst team members and protected in patents, internal reports, and extensive laboratory documentation.

Competitive Companies

We have developed a technology platform that applies subcritical water in the presence of relatively low-cost catalyst and a low-cost chemical agent used as hydrogen equivalent to promote selective carbon-carbon bond scission in hydrocarbons. The platform can be used to upgrade bitumen, convert oils and fats to biofuel, and convert waste plastics to high-quality feedstock for virgin plastics.

We believe that our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform is a new scientific approach which offers clear and important expected advantages over existing processes (particularly in plastic waste) in the form of reduced capex, higher profitability at smaller scales, higher yields, higher quality output, less or even no posttreatment of output required, better feedstock flexibility enabling the use of cheaper and more abundant feedstocks, and higher tolerance for contamination in feedstock. Further, we are not aware of any competing technologies that employ this Hydrochemolytic approach commercially and, as a result, we are not aware of any direct competition for our particular technology platform.

However, with multiple industry applications, our competitive landscape varies greatly across the industry. In particular, we face competition from companies that use established blending and upgrading approaches as well as a variety of other recycling processes. For example, many organizations employ technologies that aim to conduct chemical recycling for waste plastics, the "pyrolysis approach" being the main competitor.

These competing technologies have been developed over many years by different organizations that have pursued this approach, yet they share the same "DNA" with all pyrolytic technologies. In our view, such processes suffer from significant chemical and/or commercial limitations and thus the anticipated commercial benefits of the Hydrochemolytic™ Technology platform differentiate our technology from current competitors. In many cases, these benefits give us access to feedstock that current technologies in the same markets will not be able to process due to chemical or economic limitations of the existing approaches.

Our process deploys a new approach where a new set of chemical reactions result in an overall better performance. We have discovered and patented a unique combination of chemical reactions occurring concurrently under selected circumstances to achieve the highly desirable objective of breaking down stubborn and contaminated mixtures of polymers to much more valuable products.

Government Regulation

Our current and planned operations are and will be subject to environmental, health and safety regulation and standards in the jurisdictions in which we and any of our facilities operate, including but not limited to the Canadian Environmental Protection Act and the Environmental Protection Act of Ontario. These regulations require us to obtain certain approvals and permits to operate our facilities as well as mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air, water, and soil quality standards. These regulations also establish limitations on emissions and discharges to water, air and land, the generation, handling, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and employee health and safety.

The current governmental regulatory landscape in which our company operates is highly dynamic and continuing to develop. Key areas and trends relating to the regulatory landscape include the following:

- Increased general acceptance and regulatory framework supporting chemical recycling. For many years, only mechanical recycling had been considered as proper recycling because it left the polymer intact. However, in the end only about 25% of all plastic waste can be treated this way, not only because the remainder is too dirty to recycle, but also because standards for new plastic goods related to safety (food packaging as an example) or performance (like high-performance automotive parts) effectively block the use of mechanically recycled material. Upcoming regulations in the European Union, for instance, are now recognizing the complementary nature of mechanical and chemical recycling.

- Increased general acceptance and regulatory framework around the use of mass-balance in recycling. This is about being able to label a part of a chemical factory's output as recycled, based on the amount of recycled feedstock taken in. If a mixture of recycled and non-recycled feedstock is used, it is impossible to distinguish on a molecular level, and failure to apply a mass balance approach will restrict chemical recycling. Mass balance has already been accepted as a viable approach in industry and is now increasingly being accepted in regulatory frameworks as well.

- Increased general acceptance and regulatory framework around "minimal recycled content" requirements. This kind of regulation will create a market for recycled materials even in circumstances where recycling pathways have difficulty to compete financially with material based on virgin mineral oil (which benefits from more than 100 years of optimization and scaling of its technologies).

- Increased regulatory framework around Extended Producer Responsibility ("EPR") regulation. These regulations make the party that puts plastic articles in the market financially responsible for its collection and safe recycling. This regulation makes for instance consumer good companies like supermarkets, brand owners that market anything from shampoo to peanut butter, and car producers, pay cash for every ton of plastic they use, typically to a body that subsequently contracts separate collection and waste managements. EPR is already in place in much of Europe and Canada and is likely to become a cornerstone of United Nations policies to reduce plastic waste globally.

All of these regulatory developments (and the overview above is not intended to provide an exhaustive list) are developing in directions which are generally favorable for chemical recycling and our company, although the speed and details of regulatory changes vary from country to country.

There may be a negative affect on our business by the developing regulatory environment, however, no such negative affect is immediately foreseen by us as of the date hereof. Our technology operates at relatively mild conditions with non-hazardous auxiliary chemicals and waste streams that do not present any risks uncommon to the chemical industry. Furthermore, given the nature of our technology platform applications, we believe that future regulation related to emissions of greenhouse gases, waste management, microplastics and circularity will increase the demand for technological solutions such as ours.

Legal Proceedings

We are not involved in, or aware of, any legal or administrative proceedings contemplated or threatened by any governmental authority or any other party that is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. As of the date of this prospectus, no director, officer or affiliate is a party adverse to us in any legal proceeding or has an adverse interest to us in any legal proceeding.

Use of Proceeds

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, and the estimated offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately US$3,147,502 (or approximately US$3,705,500 if the underwriter’s option to purchase additional common shares is exercised in full), assuming an public offering price of US$4.25 per common share.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for (i) ongoing research and development costs in the approximate amount of between US$200,000 and US$500,000, and (ii) expenditures related to the construction of our “Next Generation Process” unit (our company’s planned semi-commercial pilot), to demonstrate our technology on a commercial basis, in the amount of between US$2,900,000 and US$3,200,000, with the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes and working capital. Pending such use of these funds, we may temporarily invest the proceeds.

We have not determined the specific amounts we plan to spend on each of the areas listed above beyond the range of expenditure set out, or the specific timing of such expenditures. As a result, our management will have broad discretion in the timing and application of the net proceeds from this offering. However, we anticipate that the net proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to fund our proposed projects over the next 12 months.

Capitalization and Indebtedness

Our authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares without par value and an unlimited number of preferred shares without par value. As of October 31, 2024, we had 27,225,729 common shares issued and outstanding and no preferred shares issued and outstanding.

The table below sets forth our total indebtedness and shows the capitalization of our company as of August 31, 2024 on an actual basis and on an as adjusted basis to give effect to the issuance of the aggregate of 941,177 common shares under the offering, based on our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2024, after giving effect to the reverse split which was completed on August 20, 2024.

Dilution

If you invest in the common shares offered in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per common share and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common share after this offering. As of August 31, 2024, our net tangible book value was approximately US$7,038,614 (C$9,808,308), or US$0.259 (C$0.36) per common share after giving effect to the three and quarter for one reverse stock split that we completed on August 20, 2024. Our net tangible book value per common share is equal to total assets less intangible assets and total liabilities, divided by the number of our outstanding common shares. Net tangible book value dilution per share represents the difference between the amount per common share paid by the new investors who purchase common shares in this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per common share immediately after completion of this offering. After giving effect to the sale of 941,177 common shares at a public offering price of US4.25 per share, excluding the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common shares, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value as of August 31, 2024 would have been approximately US$10,186,116 (C$14,194,352), or US$0.362 (C$0.504) per share. This represents an immediate increase of net tangible book value of approximately US$0.103 (C$0.144) per share to our existing shareholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of approximately US$3.888 (C$5.418) per share to purchasers of common shares in this offering. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

Public offering price per share	US$	4.25

Net tangible book value per share as of August 31, 2024	US$	0.259

Increase in net tangible book value per share due to the offering	US$	0.103

Pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering	US$	0.362

Dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors	US$	3.888

The table and discussion above are based on 27,225,729 common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2024, which reflect the one for three and a quarter reverse stock split that we completed on August 20, 2024, and do not include the following securities outstanding as at August 31, 2024, which also reflect the one to three and a quarter stock split completed on August 20, 2024:

- 3,254,340 common shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options; and
- 1,518,204 common shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding share purchase warrants.

In addition, the above discussion assumes no exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares. If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase our common shares in full, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering would be approximately US$0.380 (C$0.529) per share, representing an increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering of approximately US$0.121 (C$0.169) and dilution in net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering of approximately US$3.870 (C$5.393), based on a public offering price of US$4.25 per share.

The above illustration of dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors participating in this offering assumes no exercise of outstanding options or warrants to purchase our common shares. The exercise of outstanding options and warrants having an exercise price less than the initial public offering price or the conversion of convertible debentures for no additional consideration will increase dilution to new investors. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital depending on market conditions, our capital requirements and strategic considerations, even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our shareholders.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2024 and 2023 and our audited financial statements for the years ended May 31, 2024 and 2023 and related notes included in this prospectus. Our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2024 and 2023 and our audited financial statements for the years ended May 31, 2024 and 2023 included in this prospectus were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board, in Canadian dollars.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates were based on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates or other forward-looking statements under different assumptions or conditions, but we do not believe such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Our actual results may differ materially as a result of many factors, including those set forth under the headings entitled "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" herein.

Nature and Continuance of Operations

Our business model is based principally on licensing, royalties, and research and development. However, management of our company is still investigating different business models that may be a better fit to our operations. Monetization of our clean energy platform through licensing model reduces our needs for cash while enabling a relatively pathway to commercialization that is relatively straightforward and fast. We aim to develop commercial partnerships by means of demonstration projects. This strategy has been demonstrated to be very effective for securing customer feedstock and funding commitments. Deliverables include reports that detail: the technology; its performance (including yields and mass balance); the key parameters and operational variables including chemical characterization of the feedstock and products; economic considerations covering product value and operational costs; operational considerations, and environmental considerations including greenhouse gases footprint and life cycle analysis. Among the business benefits are developing long term relations, evaluation of different business models and better understanding of geographical territories behaviors and characteristic.

We are directing our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology into applications for use in the following principal markets: (1) Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling solutions for upcycling plastic waste for polymer producers, energy companies, remote communities, waste collection companies, municipalities and governments; (2) Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading solutions to improve the physical and chemical properties of bitumen for Canadian provincial heavy oil producers, international heavy oil producers and refineries; and (3) Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading solutions to transform renewable oils into renewable motor fuels, sustainable aviation fuel and specialty chemicals, for ethanol producers, seed crushing plants, biodiesel plants, farmers and poultry and beef producers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table presents selected financial information of our working capital as at August 31, 2024 and May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2022:

		August 31, 2024		May 31, 2024			May 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	5,950,892	$	2,814,576		$	4,046,634
Deposits and prepaid expenses		458,012		341,244			392,114

Current portion of debt		-		-			(27,478	)
Working Capital		6,455,041		3,200,274			4,386,363

We define working capital as current assets less current liabilities and the working capital balance as at August 31, 2024 was $6,455,041 compared to $3,200,274 as at May 31, 2024. Working capital increased by $3,254,767 due to $5,325,571 of cash generated from a non-brokered private placement completed on June 17, 2024 and by the issue of common shares from the exercise of warrants and options during the period, offset by $1,881,951 of cash used in operating activities and $255,077 used in the acquisition of new research and laboratory equipment and leasehold improvements related to the new laboratory facilities in London Ontario during the period ended August 31, 2024.

As at August 31, 2024, the maturity of our company’s obligations are as follows:

	Total	Due prior to
	Amount	2025	2026	2027	2028+
	$	$	$	$	$
Trade payables and other current liabilities	517,372	517,372	-	-	-
Lease liability	128,975	41,437	45,254	40,085	2,199
Total expected maturities	646,347	558,809	45,254	40,085	2,199

We do not expect to generate positive cash flow from operations for the foreseeable future due to additional R&D expenses and operating expenses associated with supporting these activities. It is expected that negative cash flow from operations will continue until such time, if ever, that our company achieve the necessary conditions for regulatory approval and as a result commercialize any of its products under development and/or obtains revenue from any such products or services that exceeds our company’s expenses.

During the three month period ended August 31, 2024, 6,648 February 2021 Share Warrants were exercised at an exercise price of $1.625, 338,590 July 2022 Share Warrants were exercised at an exercise price of $3.25, 73,479 April 2023 Share Warrants were exercised at an exercise price of $4.225, 3,604 April 2023 Finder Warrants were exercised at an exercise price of $4.225, 80,769 June 2024 Share Warrants were exercised at an exercise price of $5.20, 20,615 options were exercised at an exercise price of $4.843, and 6,154 options were exercised at an exercise price of $3.25, resulting in the issue of 529,859 common shares and gross proceeds of $1,976,727

Based upon the available cash and cash equivalents balance of $5,950,892 as at August 31, 2024, we believe we have sufficient working capital to meet our obligations for the next twelve months.

We do not expect to generate positive cash flow from operations for the foreseeable future due to additional research and development expenses and operating expenses associated with supporting these activities. It is expected that negative cash flow from operations will continue until such time, if ever, that we achieve the necessary conditions for regulatory approval and as a result commercialize any of our products under development and/or obtains revenue from any such products or services that exceeds our expenses.

The continuing operations of our company are dependent upon generating profitable operations and obtaining funding, as required, to allow our company to achieve its business objectives. We intend to continue to raise equity financing in order to execute our business plan, maintain a strong capital base; and safeguard our ability to continue as a going concern, such that we can in the future provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. In addition, we expect that cash generated from the exercise of share purchase warrants and options will be an important ongoing source of capital for our company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future adverse effect on our financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

We have discovered and developed the chemistry that undergirds our Hydrochemolytic™ Technology for Hydrochemolytic™ Bitumen Upgrading, Hydrochemolytic™ Renewables Upgrading, for converting renewable oils to renewable chemicals and fuels, and Hydrochemolytic™ Plastics Upcycling that recovers value from components in plastic waste for the circular economy. Thus, Hydrochemolytic™ Technology is not a single application, but an approach or platform that our company configures for different implementations. This depends on an understanding of how Hydrochemolytic™ Technology works at the molecular level and requires deep knowledge about the unique properties of the various feedstocks. Beyond that, we have the chemical engineering expertise required for scaling up to commercial reality. Our company develops and owns its intellectual property that includes critical know-how and patents. These are the product of our company's creative, skilled team of R&D chemists and engineers, including our Principal Scientist. Yet, the capability of our company to continue developing and commercializing Hydrochemolytic™ Technology in diverse applications does not reside with any one individual but is distributed amongst our team members and protected in patents, internal reports, and extensive laboratory documentation.

We have expended $911,892 and $622,994 on research and development expenses during the three-month period ended August 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively.

Trend Information

Other than as detailed below, we are not aware of any trends, commitments, events, or uncertainty that are expected to have a material effect on our company's business, financial condition, or results of operations other than as described in the section "Risk Factors" and in the section entitled "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk".

In recent years, an increased amount of information has become widely available linking waste plastics with global environmental and health issues. As a result, increased public pressure and governmental support is driving significant resources towards plastic waste recycling and finding effective solutions to increase plastic circularity. There is a global trend of increased regulations around plastics from extended producer responsibility mandates making producers responsible for their post-consumer products to minimum targets for recycled materials in products and packaging.

This trend has had a positive impact on recycling technology innovation in general and the prominence of advanced chemical recycling technologies as a solution. We expect this positive impact to continue and to increase in magnitude over the coming few years as more governmental regulations are implemented globally.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Investing in the common shares of our company involves risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occurs, the business, financial condition or results of operations of our company could be harmed. In such an event, the trading price of the common shares could decline and prospective investors may lose part or all of their investment.

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk. The lease liability have fixed cost of funds rate until maturity though subject to interest rate fluctuations if refinanced.

Foreign exchange risk

We are primarily exposed to foreign currency fluctuations in relation to its US dollar trade payables. US dollar financial instruments subject to foreign exchange risk are summarized below. We have assessed the risk and decided not to hedge the risk.

(US$)	August 31, 2024 $	May 31, 2024 $
Cash and cash equivalents	110	140
Trade payables	54,306	37,647
Net US dollar exposure	54,196	37,507

As at August 31, 2024, with other variables unchanged, a $0.10 change in the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would result in a $5,420 pre-tax loss (May 31, 2024: $3,751) from our financial instruments.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents held with a bank as well as credit exposure to customers in the form of outstanding trade and other receivables but excluding balances receivable from government entities. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of our cash and other receivables which reflects management’s assessment of the credit risk which at August 31, 2024 was $6,131,764 (May 31, 2024: $3,066,515).

Impairment losses

The allowance for doubtful accounts in respect of other receivables is used to record impairment losses unless we are satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible. At that point, the amounts are considered unrecoverable and are written off against the financial asset directly. We did not record any impairment for the three months ended August 31, 2024 and the year ended May 31, 2024.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the exposure of our company to the risk of not being able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. We manage liquidity risk through management of our cash and cash equivalents and working capital balances.

The table below provides an analysis of the expected maturities of the Company’s outstanding obligations as at August 31, 2024:

		Due prior to
	Amount	2025	2026	2027	2028+
	$	$	$	$	$
Trade payables and other current liabilities	517,372	517,372	-	-	-
Lease liability	128,975	41,437	45,254	40,085	2,199
Total expected maturities	646,347	558,809	45,254	40,085	2,199

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect our income (loss) or the value of our financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters while optimizing returns.

Capital management

Management is focused on several objectives while managing the capital structure of our company, specifically:

Ensuring we have the financing capacity to execute our business plan and meet our strategic objectives while capitalizing on opportunities that add value for our shareholders;
Maintaining a strong capital base; and
Safeguarding our ability to continue as a going concern, such that we provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

Corporate Governance Practices

Nasdaq Requirements

As a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act, we are permitted, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3), to follow our home country practice in lieu of certain Nasdaq corporate governance standards provided we disclose and describes the differences between our corporate governance practices and those required by Nasdaq. Below we describe the differences between Nasdaq Listing Rules and the applicable home country requirement. References to a “Rule” below are references to the referenced rule in the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Nominations Committee Charter and Independent Director Oversight of Director Nominations

Rule 5605(e)(1) requires independent director involvement in the selection of director nominees, by having a nominations committee comprised solely of independent directors, or by having director nominees recommended by a majority of its independent directors meeting in executive session. Rule 5605(e)(2) requires issuers to adopt a formal written charter or board resolution, as applicable, addressing the nominations process as such related matters may be required under the US federal securities laws. We follow applicable Canadian laws, that do not require that independent director oversight of director nominations.

Compensation Committee Charter

Rule 5605(d)(1) requires the formal written compensation committee charter of an issuer to specify that the chief executive officer may not be present during voting or deliberations on his or her compensation. We follow applicable Canadian laws, that do not require a formal written compensation committee charter to specify whether the chief executive officer may be present during voting or deliberations on their compensation.

Compensation Committee Composition

Rule 5605(d)(2) requires that an issuer have a compensation committee of at least two members, with each compensation committee member being an independent director as defined under Rule 5605(a)(2). We follow applicable Canadian laws, that do not require an issuer to have a compensation committee composed of independent directors.

Executive Sessions

Rule 5605(b)(2) requires that “Independent Directors” must have regularly scheduled meetings at which only “Independent Directors” are present. We follow applicable Canadian laws, pursuant to which, at each board meeting, the independent directors of a company may meet without senior executives of the company or any non-independent directors.

Quorum Requirements

Rule 5620(c) provides that the minimum quorum requirement for a meeting of shareholders is 33 1/3% of the outstanding common voting shares. We follow the applicable laws set forth in the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), which permit us to specify a quorum requirement in our memorandum or articles. Under our articles, quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of shareholders is one or more persons, present in person or by proxy.

Code of Conduct

Under Rule 5610, a listed issuer must adopt a code of conduct applicable to all directors, officers and employees, which shall be publicly available. We follow the applicable laws of Canada, that do not require a reporting issuer to adopt a written code of conduct.

Proxy Solicitations

Under Rule 5620(b), a listed company that is not a limited partnership must solicit proxies and provide proxy statements for all meetings of shareholders, and also provide copies of such proxy solicitation materials to Nasdaq. We are a "foreign private issuer" as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act, and our equity securities are accordingly exempt from the proxy rules set forth in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c) and 14(f) of the Exchange Act. We solicit proxies in accordance with applicable rules and regulations in Canada.

Shareholder Approvals

Rule 5635 requires shareholder approval to be obtained in connection with the undertaking of certain actions. The circumstances under which shareholder approval is required under the Nasdaq Listing Rules are not identical to the circumstances under which shareholder approval is required under the laws of Canada and under the rules of the CSE. For example, but without limitation, Section 5635 requires shareholder approval of most equity compensation plans and material revisions to such plans. This requirement covers plans that provide for the delivery of both newly issued and treasury securities. The CSE rules provide that within three years after institution and within every three years thereafter, a listed issuer must obtain shareholder approval for an evergreen plan (also known as a rolling plan) in order to continue to grant awards. We follow the CSE rules with respect to the requirements for shareholder approval of potential transactions, including, without limitation, shareholder approval of equity compensation plans and material revisions to such plans.

Board Practices

Term of Office

Composition of Our Board of Directors

In order to attempt to facilitate its exercise of independent supervision over management, our board of directors has established a goal that our board be composed of a majority of independent directors. Our board of directors currently has five directors, of which three are independent directors, including Mr. Peter Kampian, Mr. James Scott and Ms. Marie Grönborg. The remaining two directors are our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ofer Vicus, and our Principal Scientist, Mr. Marcus Trygstad, who are not independent. As such, the majority of our board of directors is independent, which is consistent with out goal. Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with our company. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the view of the board of directors, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment. In establishing the standard for what qualifies as an independent director, our board of directors follows the independence standard outlined in the Nasdaq Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

The mandate of our board of directors is to act in the best interests of our company and to supervise management. Our board of directors is responsible for approving long-term strategic plans and annual operating budgets recommended by management. Board consideration and approval is also required for material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions. Any responsibility which is not delegated to management or to the committees of our board of directors remains with our board of directors. Our board of directors meets on a regular basis consistent with the state of our company's affairs and also from time to time as deemed necessary to enable it to fulfill its responsibilities.

The Chairman of the Board, Mr. Ofer Vicus, is not an independent director as he is the CEO of our company.

Committees

We have no committees other than an audit committee. We do not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee.

At present, our board of directors as a whole determines the compensation of the CEO and CFO and does so with reference to industry standards and the financial situation of our company. The board of directors has the sole responsibility for determining the compensation of our directors.

Given our size, limited operating history and lack of revenues, our board of directors does not plan to form a compensation committee to monitor and review the salary and benefits of our executive officers at the present time. Our board of directors will carry out these functions until such time as it deems the formation of a compensation committee is warranted.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee is currently comprised of Peter Kampian (Chair), Ofer Vicus and James Scott. Our board has determined that Messrs. Kampian and Scott satisfy the independence requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rules and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act. Each member of the audit committee possesses financial sophistication required by the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Mr. Vicus is not independent as he has served as the CEO of our company since his appointment on April 23, 2021. The majority of our audit committee is comprised of independent directors.

We have adopted a charter for our audit committee (the “Audit Committee Charter”). According to our Audit Committee Charter, the mandate of our audit committee is to assist our board of directors in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities. According to our Audit Committee Charter, our audit committee will review and consider, in consultation with our external auditors, the financial reporting process, the system of internal control over financial reporting and the audit process. In performing its duties, our audit committee will maintain effective working relationships with our board of directors, management and external auditors. To effectively perform his or her role, each committee member must obtain an understanding of the principal responsibilities of committee membership as well as our company’s business, operations and risks. Our audit committee has duties and responsibilities including:

• being directly responsible for overseeing the work of external auditors in preparing or issuing the auditor's report, or performing other audit, review or attestation services, including the resolution of disagreements between management and the external auditors regarding financial reporting;

• considering whether adequate internal controls are in place over annual and interim financial reporting as well as controls over assets, transactions and the creation of obligations, commitments and liabilities of our company;

• reviewing the consolidated financial statements and financial information of our company prior to their release to the public; and

• considering and approving any non-audit services (being services other than services rendered for the audit and review of the consolidated financial statements or services that are normally provided by the external auditor in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements) which are proposed to be provided by the external auditors to our company or any subsidiary of our company.

One of our company’s Audit Committee members, Mr. Vicus, is also our CEO, and does not fall under the Safe Harbor Provision of SEC Rule 10A-3. However, we anticipate that before or within 90 days of the effective date of the registration statement on Form F-1 of which this prospectus forms a part, we will replace Mr. Vicus with an independent director on the audit committee.

Other Committees of Board of Directors

We are relying on certain exemptions available under the Nasdaq Listing Rules which allow us, as a foreign private issuer, to follow our home country rules with respect to certain matters. In particular, we are not required to have nominating or compensation committees or committees performing similar functions nor are we required to have a written nominating or compensation committee charter. Our board of directors does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because it believes that the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by our board of directors.

In addition, we do not have any defined policy or procedure requirements for our stockholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. We do not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to our board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. Our board of directors assesses all candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and makes recommendations for election or appointment.

Clawback Policy

Pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 10D-1 and Nasdaq Rule 5608, we have adopted a Compensation Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) providing for us to recover reasonably promptly the amount of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation in the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. The Clawback Policy is filed as an exhibit to the Form F-1 registration statement.

Stock Option Plans

Our previous stock option plan (the "Previous Stock Option Plan") was adopted on April 29, 2021. The Previous Stock Option Plan provides that the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Previous Stock Option Plan, together with all of our other previously established or proposed stock options, stock option plans, employee stock purchase plans or any other compensation or incentive mechanisms involving the issuance or potential issuance of shares, is subject to the restrictions imposed under applicable securities laws and stock exchange policies. All options granted under the Previous Stock Option Plan will expire not later than the date that is ten years from the date that such options are granted. Options terminate earlier as follows: (i) immediately in the event of dismissal with cause; (ii) one month from date of termination other than for cause, or as set forth in each particular stock option agreement; (iii) twelve months from the date of disability; or (iv) twelve months from the date of death. Options granted under the Previous Stock Option Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by will or other testamentary instrument or pursuant to the laws of succession. As of the date hereof, 8,171,999 stock options and nil RSUs are outstanding under the Previous Stock Option Plan.

On November 21, 2022, our board of directors adopted an omnibus equity incentive plan (the "Equity Incentive Plan") to replace the Previous Stock Option Plan, which was approved by our shareholders on February 23, 2023. Our board of directors believes that the Equity Incentive Plan will provide greater flexibility to grant equity-based incentive awards in the form of Options, RSUs, performance share units ("PSUs") and deferred share units ("DSUs").

The Equity Incentive Plan provides flexibility to our company to grant equity-based incentive awards in the form of Options, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as described in further detail below. The purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan is to, among other things, provide us with a share-related mechanism to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, employees and consultants, to reward such of those directors, employees and consultants as may be granted awards under the Equity Incentive Plan by our board of directors from time to time for their contributions toward our long-term goals and success and to enable and encourage such directors, employees and consultants to acquire common shares as long-term investments and proprietary interests in our company.

Shares Subject to the Equity Incentive Plan

The Equity Incentive Plan is a rolling plan which, subject to the adjustment provisions provided for therein (including a subdivision or consolidation of common shares), provides that the aggregate maximum number of common shares that may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan shall not exceed 15% of our company's issued and outstanding common shares from time to time. The Equity Incentive Plan is considered an "evergreen" plan, since the common shares covered by awards which have been exercised, settled or terminated shall be available for subsequent grants under the Equity Incentive Plan and the number of awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding common shares increases.

Articles

Incorporation

We are incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Our British Columbia incorporation number is BC1148518.

Objects and Purposes of Our Company

Our articles do not contain a description of our objects and purposes.

Voting on Certain Proposal, Arrangement, Contract or Compensation by Directors

Our articles do not restrict directors' power to (a) vote on a proposal, arrangement or contract in which the directors are materially interested or (b) to vote compensation to themselves or any other members of their body in the absence of an independent quorum. Any such conflicts of interest will be subject to the procedures and remedies as provided under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Borrowing Powers of Directors

Our articles provide that we, if authorized by our directors, may from time to time on behalf of our company:

• borrow money in the manner and amount, on the security, from the sources and on the terms and conditions that they consider appropriate;

• issue bonds, debentures and other debt obligations either outright or as security for any liability or obligation of our company or any other person and at any discount or premium and on such other terms as they consider appropriate;

• guarantee the repayment of money by any other person or the performance of any obligation of any other person; and

• mortgage or charge, whether by way of specific or floating charge, or give other security on the whole or any part of the present and future assets and undertaking of our company.

Qualifications of Directors

Under our articles, there is no mandatory retirement age for our directors and our directors are not required to own securities of our company in order to serve as directors.

Share Rights

Our authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares without par value and an unlimited number of preferred shares without par value.

Holders of our common shares are entitled to vote one vote for each share held at all meetings of our shareholders, to receive any dividend declared by our board of directors and, to receive the remaining property of our company upon dissolution. None of our common shares are subject to any call or assessment nor pre-emptive or conversion rights. There are no provisions attached to our common shares for redemption, purchase for cancellation, surrender or sinking or purchase funds.

Our preferred shares may include one or more series and, subject to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), the directors of our company may, by resolution, if none of the shares of any particular series are issued, alter articles of our company and authorize the alteration of the notice of articles of our company, as the case may be, to do one or more of the following:

• determine the maximum number of shares of that series that our company is authorized to issue, determine that there is no such maximum number, or alter any such determination;

• create an identifying name for the shares of that series, or alter any such identifying name; and

• attach special rights or restrictions to the shares of that series, or alter any such special rights or restrictions.

Meetings

Each director holds office until our next annual general meeting, or until his office is earlier vacated in accordance with our articles or with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). A director appointed or elected to fill a vacancy on our board also holds office until our next annual general meeting.

Our articles provide that our annual meetings of shareholders must be held at such time in each calendar year and not more than 15 months after the last annual general meeting and at such place as our board of directors may from time to time determine. Our directors may, at any time, call a meeting of our shareholders.

The holders of not less than five percent of our issued shares that carry the right to vote at a meeting may requisition our directors to call a meeting of shareholders for the purposes stated in the requisition.

Under our articles, the quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of our shareholders is one or more persons, present in person or by proxy.

Our articles state that in addition to those persons who are entitled to vote at a meeting of our shareholders, the only other persons entitled to be present at the meeting are the directors, the president (if any), the secretary (if any), any lawyer for our company, the auditor of our company, any persons invited to be present at the meeting by our directors or by the chair of the meeting and any person entitled or required under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) or our articles to be present at the meeting.

Limitations on Ownership of Securities

Except as provided in the Investment Canada Act, there are no limitations specific to the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote our common shares under the laws of Canada or British Columbia, or in our charter documents.

Change in Control

There are no provisions in our articles or in the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) that would have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company, and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving our company or our subsidiaries.

Ownership Threshold

Our articles or the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) do not contain any provisions governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed. Securities legislation in Canada, however, requires that we disclose in our information circular for our annual general meeting, holders who beneficially own more than 10% of our issued and outstanding shares. Most state corporation statutes do not contain provisions governing the threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed. However, we expect that the United States federal securities laws will require us to disclose, in our annual report on Form 20-F, holders who own 5% or more of our issued and outstanding shares.

Material Contracts

We have not entered into any material contracts during the last two years.

For information regarding Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements involving our directors and senior management, see "Compensation" for additional information.

Exchange Controls

Our company is incorporated in and subject to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. There is no law or governmental decree or regulation in Canada that restricts the export or import of capital, or affects the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of common shares, other than withholding tax requirements. Any such remittances to United States residents are generally subject to withholding tax, however no such remittances are likely in the foreseeable future. See "Taxation" below.

There are no limitations under the laws of Canada or in the organizing documents of our company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote securities of our company, except that the Investment Canada Act may require that a "non-Canadian" not acquire "control" of our company without prior review and approval by the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, where applicable thresholds are exceeded. The acquisition of one-third or more of the voting shares of our company would give rise a rebuttable presumption of an acquisition of control, and the acquisition of more than fifty percent of the voting shares of our company would be deemed to be an acquisition of control. In addition, the Investment Canada Act provides the Canadian government with broad discretionary powers in relation to national security to review and potentially prohibit, condition or require the divestiture of, any investment in our company by a non-Canadian, including non-control level investments. "Non-Canadian" generally means an individual who is neither a Canadian citizen nor a permanent resident of Canada within the meaning of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (Canada) who has been ordinarily resident in Canada for not more than one year after the time at which he or she first became eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship, or a corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is ultimately controlled by non-Canadians.

Taxation

Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for United States Residents

The following is a summary of certain Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the holding and disposition of our securities acquired by a holder who, at all relevant times, (a) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "ITA") (i) is not resident, or deemed to be resident, in Canada, (ii) deals at arm's length with us, and is not affiliated with us, (iii) holds our common shares as capital property, (iv) does not use or hold the common shares in the course of carrying on, or otherwise in connection with, a business carried on or deemed to be carried on in Canada and (v) is not a "registered non-resident insurer" or "authorized foreign bank" (each as defined in the ITA), or other holder of special status, and (b) for the purposes of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention (the "Tax Treaty"), is a resident of the United States, has never been a resident of Canada, does not have and has not had, at any time, a permanent establishment or fixed base in Canada, and who otherwise qualifies for the full benefits of the Tax Treaty. Holders who meet all the criteria in clauses (a) and (b) above are referred to herein as "U.S. Holders", and this summary only addresses such U.S. Holders.

This summary does not deal with special situations, such as the particular circumstances of traders or dealers, tax exempt entities, insurers or financial institutions, or other holders of special status or in special circumstances. Such holders, and all other holders who do not meet the criteria in clauses (a) and (b) above, should consult their own tax advisors.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the ITA, the regulations thereunder in force at the date hereof, the current provisions of the Tax Treaty, and our understanding of the administrative and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency published in writing prior to the date hereof. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the ITA and regulations thereunder publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments") and assumes that such Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, such Proposed Amendments might not be enacted in the form proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law or administrative or assessing practices, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account tax laws of any province or territory of Canada or of any other jurisdiction outside Canada, which may differ significantly from those discussed in this summary.

For the purposes of the ITA, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of our securities must generally be expressed in Canadian dollars. Amounts denominated in United States currency generally must be converted into Canadian dollars using the rate of exchange that is acceptable to the Canada Revenue Agency.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Holder, and no representation with respect to the Canadian federal income tax consequences to any particular U.S. Holder or prospective U.S. Holder is made. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Accordingly, all prospective purchasers (including U.S. Holders as defined above) should consult with their own tax advisors for advice with respect to their own particular circumstances.

Withholding Tax on Dividends

Amounts paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited as, on account or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, dividends on our common shares to a U.S. Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax. Under the Tax Treaty, the rate of Canadian withholding tax on dividends paid or credited by us to a U.S. Holder that beneficially owns such dividends and substantiates eligibility for the benefits of the Tax Treaty is generally 15% (unless the beneficial owner is a company that owns at least 10% of our voting stock at that time, in which case the rate of Canadian withholding tax is generally reduced to 5%).

Dispositions

A U.S. Holder will not be subject to tax under the ITA on a capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of a security, unless the security is "taxable Canadian property" to the U.S. Holder for purposes of the ITA and the U.S. Holder is not entitled to relief under the Tax Treaty.

Generally, our common shares will not constitute "taxable Canadian property" to a U.S. Holder at a particular time unless both: (A) at any time during the 60 month period immediately preceding the disposition, more than 50% of the fair market value of such shares was derived, directly or indirectly, from one or any combination of: (i) real or immoveable property situated in Canada, (ii) "Canadian resource properties" (as defined in the ITA), (iii) "timber resource properties" (as defined in the ITA), and (iv) options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, property described in any of the foregoing whether or not the property exists; and (B) if our common shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" as defined in the ITA and are so listed at the time of disposition, the U.S. Holder, persons with whom the U.S. Holder did not deal at arm's length, partnerships in which the U.S. Holder or such non-arm's length person holds a membership interest (either directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships), or the U.S. Holder together with all such persons, owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares of our company. In addition to the foregoing, in certain other circumstances set out in the ITA, common shares could also be deemed to be "taxable Canadian property".

U.S. Holders who may hold common shares as "taxable Canadian property" should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of Canadian capital gains taxation, any potential relief under the Tax Treaty, and special compliance procedures under the ITA, none of which is described in this summary.

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) arising from the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares. This summary applies only to U.S. Holders that acquire our common shares pursuant to this prospectus and does not apply to any subsequent U.S. Holder of our common shares.

This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a U.S. Holder as a result of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable tax treaty. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any particular U.S. Holder. In addition, this summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, net investment income, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. Medicare contribution, U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our common shares. Except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding all U.S. federal, U.S. state and local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares.

No opinion from U.S. legal counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our common shares. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, or contrary to, any position taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities upon which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary.

Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis, which could affect the U.S. federal income tax considerations described in this summary. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis.

U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our common shares by U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies; (c) broker-dealers, dealers, or traders in securities or currencies that elect to apply a "mark-to-market" accounting method; (d) U.S. Holders that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (e) U.S. Holders that own our common shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other arrangement involving more than one position; (f) U.S. Holders that acquire our common shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (g) U.S. Holders that hold our securities other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes); and (h) U.S. Holders that own directly, indirectly, or by attribution, 10% or more, by voting power or value, of our outstanding shares.

If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such partnership and the partners (or other owners) of such partnership of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our common shares generally will depend on the activities of the partnership and the status of such partners (or other owners). This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations for any such partner or partnership (or other "pass-through" entity or its owners). Owners of entities and arrangements that are classified as partnerships (or other "pass-through" entities) for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of our common shares.

Acquisition of Our Securities

Ownership and Disposition of Our Common Shares

Distributions on Our Common Shares

Subject to the "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC") rules discussed below (see "Tax Consequences if Our Company is a PFIC"), a U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to our common shares will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current or accumulated "earnings and profits" of our company, as computed for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of our company, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in our common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such common shares (see "Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Our common shares" below). However, we may not maintain calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder should therefore assume that any distribution by our company with respect to our common shares will constitute a dividend. Dividends received on our common shares generally will not be eligible for the "dividends received deduction" available to U.S. corporate shareholders receiving dividends from U.S. corporations. If our company is eligible for the benefits of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention or our common shares is are readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S., dividends paid by our company to non-corporate U.S. Holders generally will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains, provided certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, including that our company not be classified as a PFIC in the tax year of distribution or in the preceding tax year. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Our Common Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common shares, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the common shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other taxable disposition, the U.S. Holder's holding period for such security is more than one year. Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code.

PFIC Status of Our Company

A non-U.S. corporation is considered a passive foreign investment company or "PFIC" for any taxable year if either:

	●	at least 75% of its gross income for such taxable year is passive income (the "passive income test"); or
	●	at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets during a taxable year) is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income (the "asset test")

Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets.

In determining whether we are a PFIC, we are permitted, under Code Section 1297(c), to take into account, on a pro rata basis, the income and the assets of any entity of which we own (or are treated under the Code as owning) at least 25% of the stock by value (a so-called "look-through subsidiary"). Because we own 100% of the stock of our subsidiaries, in determining our PFIC status we will take into account their income and assets (other than certain assets, or the income therefrom, that are subject to intercompany transfers). As discussed below, PFIC status is determined on an annual basis and our status as a PFIC under the passive income test may change from year to year.

In determining whether we are a PFIC under the assets test, a number of different kinds of assets must be taken into account. In this offering we expect to raise for our Company considerable cash. The IRS has stated that cash, even if held as working capital, produces passive income and is therefore a passive asset. Our status as a PFIC under the assets test will therefore depend in part on how quickly we spend the cash that we raise. Our status as a PFIC could also depend on the value of our stock as determined by the market (which may be volatile). PFIC status based on assets is calculated annually and is based on the average quarterly value of our assets. Accordingly, our status as a PFIC based on the assets test could change from year to year.

Based on the foregoing, it is not possible to determine whether we will be characterized as a PFIC for the current taxable year or any subsequent year until after the close of the relevant year. We must make a separate determination each year as to whether we are a PFIC (under either the asset test or the passive income test), and there can be no assurance with respect to our status as a PFIC for the current or any future taxable year. We or a related entity express no opinion as to the Company's or a related entity's status as a PFIC for the current or any future or prior year. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the PFIC issue and its applicability to their particular tax situation. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning our status as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested.

If we are a PFIC for any year during which you hold our common shares, we will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to you for all succeeding years during which you hold our common shares, even if in a succeeding taxable year we are no longer classified as a PFIC. However, if we cease to be a PFIC, you may avoid the adverse effects of the PFIC regime thereafter by making a "purging election" (as described below) with respect to the common shares. A discussion of other ways in which you may be able to mitigate some of the adverse effects of PFIC status are also discussed below.

Consequences to You of PFIC Status

If we are a PFIC for a taxable year during which you hold common shares, you will be subject to special tax rules with respect to any "excess distribution" that you receive, and with respect to any gain that you realize from a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of the common shares, in that year and subsequent years, unless you make a "mark-to-market" election as discussed below. You will be subject to these rules for the first year in which we are a PFIC and for all subsequent years unless (i) we cease to be classified as a PFIC and (ii) you make a "purging election", as discussed below

"Excess distributions" are distributions you receive from us in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions you received from us during (i) the three preceding taxable years or (ii) your holding period for the common shares, whichever is shorter. Under the special tax rules that apply to excess distributions, and to gains realized from a disposition of our common shares,

	●	the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably (on a daily basis) over your holding period for the common shares;
	●	the amount allocated to your current taxable year, and any amount allocated to any tax year(s) in your holding period prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income arising in the current taxable year; and
	●	the amount allocated to each of your other taxable year(s) - i.e., prior years during which we were a PFIC - will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for that year; moreover, interest charges generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.

The tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of excess distribution or disposition cannot be offset by any net operating losses for such years, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of the common shares cannot be treated as capital, even if you hold the common shares as capital assets.

"Mark-to-market" election. To elect out of the excess distribution tax treatment discussed above, a U.S. Holder of "marketable stock" (as defined below) in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election for such stock. The mark-to-market election is available only for "marketable stock", which is stock that is traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter ("regularly traded") on a qualified exchange or other market. A "qualified exchange or other market" is defined in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations as a national securities exchange registered with the SEC or a national market system established pursuant to section 11A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or a foreign securities exchange or market that the IRS determines is a qualified exchange that has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value. The Nasdaq Capital Market is a qualified exchange or other market, but we are uncertain as to whether our common shares will be "regularly traded." If our common shares do not trade regularly on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other qualified exchange or market, the mark-to-market election would not be available to you were we to be or become a PFIC.

If the mark-to-market election is available and you make a mark-to-market election for the first taxable year which you hold (or are deemed to hold) common shares and for which we are determined to be a PFIC, you will include in your income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common shares as of the close of such taxable year over your adjusted basis in such common shares. Such excess will be treated as ordinary income and not capital gain. Under the mark-to-market rules you are allowed an ordinary loss for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the common shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. However, such ordinary loss is allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on the common shares included in your income for prior taxable years. Your basis in the common shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts.

If you sell or otherwise dispose of any common shares that are subject to a mark-to-market election, any gain on the sale or other disposition is treated as ordinary income. Any loss incurred on such sale or disposition is treated as an ordinary loss, but only to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included for such common shares.

If you make a valid mark-to-market election and if we subsequently make dividend distributions, the tax rules that apply to distributions by corporations which are not PFICs would apply to such distributions, except that the lower applicable capital gains rate for qualified dividend income discussed above under "- Distributions on Our Common Shares" generally would not apply.

"Purging election." If you do not make a timely "mark-to-market" election (as described above), and if we were a PFIC at any time during the period you hold our common shares, then such common shares will continue to be treated as stock of a PFIC with respect to you even if we cease to be a PFIC in a future year, unless you make a "purging election" for the year we cease to be a PFIC. A "purging election" creates a deemed sale of such common shares at their fair market value on the last day of the last year in which we are treated as a PFIC. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules, described above, that apply to excess distributions. As long as we are not thereafter a PFIC, dividends distributed by us (or gains from the sale of our common shares) following a purging election will no longer be subject to the rules (described above) that apply to excess distributions. As a result of the purging election, you will have a new basis (equal to the fair market value of the common shares on the last day of the last year in which we are treated as a PFIC) and a new holding period (which new holding period will begin the day after such last day) in your common shares for tax purposes.

Qualified electing fund election. In some cases a U.S. Holder of stock in a PFIC may make a "qualified electing fund" election with respect to such PFIC to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. A U.S. Holder who makes a valid qualified electing fund election with respect to a PFIC generally includes in gross income for a taxable year such holder's pro rata share of the corporation's earnings and profits for the taxable year. However, the qualified electing fund election is available only if the PFIC provides the U.S. Holder with certain information regarding its earnings and profits as required under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. We do not currently intend to prepare or provide the information that would enable you to make a qualified electing fund election.

THE PFIC RULES ARE COMPLEX. THE DISCUSSION ABOVE IS A GENERAL SUMMARY. IT DOES NOT COVER ALL TAX MATTERS THAT MAY BE OF IMPORTANCE TO A PARTICULAR INVESTOR. THE COMPANY HAS NOT AND WILL NOT MAKE A DETERMINATION IF IT IS A PFIC IN THE CURRENT TAX YEAR OR ANY FUTURE TAX YEAR. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IN THE COMMON SHARES IS URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISER ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF OWNING AND DISPOSING OF THE SHARES IN LIGHT OF SUCH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR'S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES.

Foreign Tax Credit

A U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax in connection with the ownership or disposition of our common shares may be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax paid. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all creditable foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder's "foreign source" taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder's worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder's various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source." Generally, dividends paid by a non-U.S. corporation should be treated as foreign source for this purpose, and gains recognized on the sale of securities of a non-U.S. corporation by a U.S. Holder should be treated as U.S. source for this purpose, except as otherwise provided in an applicable income tax treaty, and if an election is properly made under the Code. However, the amount of a distribution with respect to our common shares that is treated as a "dividend" may be lower for U.S. federal income tax purposes than it is for Canadian federal income tax purposes, resulting in a reduced foreign tax credit allowance to a U.S. Holder. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

Special rules apply to the amount of foreign tax credit that a U.S. Holder may claim on a distribution, including a constructive distribution, from a PFIC. Subject to such special rules, non-U.S. taxes paid with respect to any distribution in respect of stock in a PFIC are generally eligible for the foreign tax credit. The rules relating to distributions by a PFIC and their eligibility for the foreign tax credit are complicated, and a U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding their application to the U.S. Holder.

Receipt of Foreign Currency

The amount of any distribution or proceeds paid in Canadian dollars to a U.S. Holder in connection with the ownership, sale or other taxable disposition of our common shares, will be included in the gross income of a U.S. Holder as translated into U.S. dollars calculated by reference to the exchange rate prevailing on the date of actual or constructive receipt of the payment, regardless of whether the Canadian dollars are converted into U.S. dollars at that time. If the Canadian dollars received are not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder will have a basis in the Canadian dollars equal to their U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any U.S. Holder who receives payment in Canadian dollars and engages in a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the Canadian dollars may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method with respect to foreign currency. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of Canadian dollars.

Information Reporting; Backup Withholding

Payments made within the U.S. or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman of (a) distributions on our common shares, and (b) proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of our common shares generally will be subject to information reporting. In addition, backup withholding, currently at a rate of 24%, may apply to such payments if a U.S. Holder (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder's correct U.S. taxpayer identification number ("TIN") (generally on Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. TIN, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. TIN and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding. Certain exempt persons generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding rules. A non-U.S. Holder may qualify as an exempt recipient by submitting a properly completed IRS Form W-8. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding rules are allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS in a timely manner. The information reporting and backup withholding rules may apply even if, under the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention, payments are exempt from dividend withholding tax or otherwise eligible for a reduced withholding rate.

The discussion of reporting requirements set forth above is not intended to constitute an exhaustive description of all reporting requirements that may apply to a U.S. Holder. A failure to satisfy certain reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax, and, under certain circumstances, such an extension may apply to assessments of amounts unrelated to any unsatisfied reporting requirement. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Certain Reporting Requirements

Under U.S. federal income tax law, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a non-U.S. corporation. For example, U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties) are imposed on individuals who are U.S. Holders that hold certain specified foreign financial assets in excess of certain threshold amounts. The definition of "specified foreign financial assets" includes not only financial accounts maintained in non-U.S. financial institutions, but also, if held for investment and not in an account maintained by certain financial institutions, any stock or security issued by a non-U.S. person, any financial instrument or contract that has an issuer or counterparty other than a U.S. person, and any interest in a non-U.S. entity. A U.S. Holder may be subject to these reporting requirements unless such U.S. Holder's shares of our common shares are held in an account at certain financial institutions. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing information returns on IRS Form 8938 for specified foreign financial assets, filing obligations relating to the PFIC rules including possible reporting on IRS Form 8621, and any other applicable reporting requirements.

A U.S. Holder that acquires common shares generally will be required to file Form 926 with the IRS if (1) immediately after the acquisition such U.S. Holder, directly or indirectly, owns at least 10% of the common shares, or (2) the amount of cash transferred in exchange for common shares during the 12-month period ending on the date of the acquisition exceeds US$100,000. Significant penalties may apply for failing to satisfy these filing requirements. U.S. Holders are urged to contact their tax advisors regarding these filing requirements.

Non-U.S. Holders

A non-U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner (other than a partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of the common shares that is not a U.S. Holder.

Subject to the U.S. backup withholding rules described below, non-U.S. Holders of the common shares generally will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax on distributions with respect to, or gain on sale or disposition of, the common shares.

Non-U.S. Holders who are engaged in a trade or business in the United States who receive payments with respect to the common shares that are effectively connected with such trade or business should consult their own tax advisers with respect to the U.S. tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the common shares. Individuals who are present in the United States for 183 days or more in any taxable year should also consult their own tax advisers as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the common shares.

THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL U.S. TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON SHARES WITH RESPECT TO THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP OR DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON SHARES. HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON SHARES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO THEM IN THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Underwriting

In connection with this offering, we expect to enter an underwriting agreement with Craft Capital Management LLC (who we refer to as the “Representative” or “Craft Capital Management”), as the representative of the underwriters named in this prospectus, with respect to the common shares in this offering. Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, the Representative will agree to purchase from us on a firm commitment basis the respective number of common shares at the public price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and each of the underwriters has severally and not jointly agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell to the underwriters, at the public offering price per shares less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, the number of common shares listed next to its name in the following table:

Name of Underwriter	Number of Shares
Craft Capital Management LLC		470,589
EF Hutton LLC		470,588
Total		941,177

The underwriters are committed to purchase all the common shares in the offering if any are purchased, other than those covered by the over-allotment option described below. The obligations of the underwriters may be terminated upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the underwriting agreement. Furthermore, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, the underwriters' obligations are subject to customary conditions, representations, and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement, such as receipt by the underwriters of officers' certificates and legal opinions.

The common shares will be offered in the United States by the underwriter either directly or through its duly registered U.S. broker dealer affiliates or agents. Any common shares sold by the underwriter to securities dealers will be sold at the public offering price less a selling concession not in excess of US$0.14875 per share. No common shares will be offered or sold to Canadian purchasers, and there will be no solicitations or advertising activities undertaken in Canada in connection with the offering.

The common shares are offered subject to a number of conditions, including:

receipt and acceptance of the common shares by the underwriter;
the Underwriter's right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part; and
other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriter of officers' certificates and legal opinions.

The offering price of the common shares was determined by arm's length negotiation between our company and the underwriter.

Over-Allotment Option

We have granted a 45-day option to the underwriters, exercisable one or more times in whole or in part, to purchase up to an additional 141,176 common shares at a price per share equal to the public offering price less, underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any.

Discounts, Commissions and Expenses

The following table shows the per unit and total underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid to the underwriters. Such amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares.

	Per Share		Without Over-Allotment Option		With Over-Allotment Option
Public offering price	US$	4.25	US$	4,000,002	US$	4,600,000
Underwriting discounts and commissions (7%)	US$	0.2975	US$	280,000	US$	322,000
Proceeds, before expenses, to us	US$	3.9525	US$	3,720,002	US$	4,278,000

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, not including the underwriting discount, will be approximately US$572,500.

We have agreed to pay the Representative a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received by us from the offering. We will be also responsible for and will pay all expenses relating to the offering, including, without limitation, (a) all filing fees and expenses relating to the registration of the securities with the Commission; (b) all fees and expenses relating to the listing of the Company's common shares; (c) all fees, expenses and disbursements relating to the registration or qualification of the securities under the "blue sky" securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions as the Representative may reasonably designate (including, without limitation, all filing and registration fees, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Company's "blue sky" counsel, which will be the underwriters' counsel) unless such filings are not required in connection with the Company's proposed listing on a national exchange, if applicable; (d) all fees, expenses and disbursements relating to the registration, qualification or exemption of the securities under the securities laws of such foreign jurisdictions as the Representative may reasonably designate; (e) the costs of all mailing and printing of the Offering documents; (f) transfer and/or stamp taxes, if any, payable upon the transfer of securities from the Company to the underwriters; (g) the fees and expenses of the Company's accountants; (h) all filing fees and communication expenses associated with the review of this offering by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"); (i) up to $20,000 of the Representative's actual accountable "road show" expenses of the offering; (j) the $29,500 costs associated with the Representative's use of Ipreo's book building, prospectus tracking and compliance software for the offering; (k) costs associated with bound volumes of the offering materials as well as commemorative mementos and lucite tombstones in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000; and (l) legal fees and disbursements of up to $150,000 for the underwriters' counsel. The Company shall be responsible for underwriters' external counsel legal costs irrespective of whether or not the offering is consummated, subject to a maximum of $50,000 in the event that it is not consummated.

We have paid a $50,000 advance to the Representative, which shall be applied against actual out-of-pocket-accountable expenses, which will be returned to us to the extent such out-of-pocket accountable expenses are not actually incurred in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4)(A)

Representative's Warrants

In addition, we have agreed to issue warrants to the Representative(or its permitted assignees), upon the closing of the offering, warrants to purchase up to 5.0% of the common shares sold in this offering (the "Representative's Warrants"). The Representative's Warrants will be exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the four and a half-year period commencing six months from the effective date of the registration statement for this offering, which period is in compliance with applicable FINRA rules. The warrants are exercisable at a per share price equal to US$4.675 per common share, or 110% of the public offering price in the offering. The warrants have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1)(A) of FINRA. The Representative (or permitted assignees under Rule 5110(e)(2)(B)) will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or hypothecate these warrants or the securities underlying these warrants, nor will they engage in any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the warrants or the underlying securities for a period of 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part. In addition, the warrants provide for registration rights upon request, in certain cases. The demand registration rights provided will not be greater than five years from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part in compliance with applicable FINRA rules. The piggyback registration rights provided will not be greater than seven (7) years from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in compliance with applicable FINRA rules. We will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities issuable on exercise of the warrants other than fees and expenses associated with a second demand right and underwriting commissions incurred and payable by the holders. The Representative's Warrants do not contain more than one demand right at the issuer's expense pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(B). The exercise price and number of warrant shares issuable upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and as otherwise permitted under Rule 5110(f)(2)(G) of FINRA.

Discretionary Accounts

The underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of the common shares to any accounts over which it has discretionary authority.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and liabilities arising from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement, or to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

Lock-Up Agreements

All of our executive officers, directors, and any holders of 5% or more of our outstanding common shares as of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part have agreed to enter into customary "lock-up" agreements in favour of the Representative, for a period of 182 days after the closing of this offering, subject to certain exempt securities which shall not be subject to lock-up agreements, that they shall not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of our company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of our company, subject to the following exceptions: transfers as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust of the holder; transfers to a charity or educational institution of the holder; transfers to another corporation, partnership or other business entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control of the holder; distributions to members, partners, shareholders, subsidiaries or affiliates of the holder; to a trustee or beneficiary of the trust if the holder is a trust; provided each transferee shall sign and deliver a substantially similar lock-up agreement and that the Representative shall receive the lock-up agreement and provide its written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the lock-up agreement prior to any transfer; and the receipt by common shares issued by our company upon the vesting of restricted stock awards or stock units or upon the grant or exercise of options to purchase common shares of our company issued under an equity incentive plan of our company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Representative may request lock-up agreements from any holders of less than 5% of our outstanding common shares as of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

No Sales of Similar Securities

Subject to certain limited exceptions, for a period of 182 days after the closing date of this offering, without the prior written consent of the Representative, our company has agreed not to (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of our company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of our company; (ii) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of our company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of our company; (iii) complete any offering of debt securities of our company, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank, or (iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of capital stock of our company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above is to be settled by delivery of shares of capital stock of our company or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

The Representative may, in its sole discretion and at any time or from time to time before the termination of the lock-up period, without notice, release all or any portion of the securities subject to lock-up agreements.

Determination of Public Offering Price

Our common shares are quoted on the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQX under the symbol “ACTHF” and listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol “ACT”. Consequently, the public offering price for the common shares will be determined by such trading activity and negotiations among us and the underwriter. Among the factors to be considered in determining the public offering price are our results of operations, our current financial condition, our future prospects, our markets, the economic conditions in and future prospects for the industry in which we compete, our management, and currently prevailing general conditions in the equity securities markets, including current market valuations of publicly traded companies considered comparable to our company. Neither we nor the underwriter can assure investors that an active trading market will develop for our common shares, or that our common shares will trade in the public market at or above the public offering price. Our common shares have been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ADUR.”

Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids

In connection with this offering, the underwriter may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our securities. Specifically, the underwriter may over-allot in connection with this offering by selling more common shares than are set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. This creates a short position in our common shares for its own account. The short position may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriter is not greater than the number of common shares that it may purchase in the over-allotment option. In a naked short position, the number of common shares involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option. To close out a short position, the underwriter may elect to exercise all or part of the over-allotment option. The underwriter may also elect to stabilize the price of our common shares or reduce any short position by bidding for, and purchasing, shares in the open market.

The underwriter may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter or dealer repays selling concessions allowed to it for distributing a security in this offering because the underwriter repurchases that security in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

Finally, the underwriter may bid for, and purchase, shares in market making transactions, including "passive" market making transactions as described below.

These activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common shares at a price that is higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriter is not required to engage in these activities, and may discontinue any of these activities at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq Capital Market, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise.

Right of First Refusal

Subject to the closing of this offering and certain exemptions set forth in the underwriting agreement, including in respect of one or more private placements of our company up to an aggregate of CA$6,000,000 or any other financing of our company outside of the United States, for a period of 18 months after the closing of the offering, the Representative shall have a right of first refusal to act as lead managing underwriter and book-runner or minimally as a co-lead manager and co-book-runner and/or co-lead placement agent for any and all future public or private equity, equity-linked or debt (excluding commercial bank debt) offerings undertaken during such period by us, or any of our successors or subsidiaries.

Tail Financing Payments

During the engagement of Representative in connection with this offering or within the 12 month period following the expiration or termination of the engagement, unless the engagement is terminated for cause, if we receive proceeds from the sale of equity, debt and/or equity derivative instruments from any investors actually introduced to us by the Representative, then the Representative shall be entitled to a cash fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds received by us, provided that such financing is by a party actually introduced to us in an offering in which we have direct knowledge of such party’s participation.

International Selling Restrictions

Other than in the United States, no action has been taken by us or the underwriter that would permit a public offering of the securities offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The securities offered by this prospectus may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this prospectus or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such securities be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction.

Electronic Distribution

This prospectus in electronic format may be made available on websites or through other online services maintained by the underwriter, or by its affiliates. The underwriter may agree to allocate a number of common shares to other underwriters for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the underwriters that will make internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations. Other than this prospectus in electronic format, the information on the underwriters' website and any information contained in any other website maintained by the underwriters is not part of this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or the underwriters in their capacity as underwriters, and should not be relied upon by investors.

Listing

Our common shares were approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ADUR”.

Other Relationships

From time to time, the underwriter and/or its affiliates may in the future engage in investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us for which they would expect to receive customary fees and commissions.

In addition, in the ordinary course of its business activities, the underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriter and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

Notice to Prospective Investors in Canada

The underwriter will not, directly or indirectly, solicit offers to purchase or sell our common shares in Canada.

Dividends

There is no dividend restriction; however, we have not declared any dividends since our inception and do not anticipate that we will do so in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the development of our business. Any future payment of dividends or distributions will be determined by our board of directors on the basis of our earnings, financial requirements and other relevant factors.

There is no special procedure for non-resident holders to claim dividends. Any remittances of dividends to United States residents and to other non-residents are, however, subject to withholding tax. See "Taxation" above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Aduro Clean Technologies Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Aduro Clean Technologies Inc. (the "Company") as of May 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended May 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of May 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended May 31, 2024, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

CHARTERED PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTANTS

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2018.

Aduro Clean Technologies Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended May 31, 2024
Expressed in Canadian Dollars

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Aduro Clean Technologies Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia on January 10, 2018, under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia. On February 12, 2019, the Company's shares commenced trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") under the symbol "DFT." On April 23, 2021, the Company changed its name to "Aduro Clean Technologies Inc." from Dimension Five Technologies Inc. and the Company's shares were re‐listed under the symbol ACT. On July 20, 2021, the Company's shares commenced trading on the OTCQB and upgraded to the OTCQX on October 31, 2023, in the United States under the symbol "ACTHF" and on July 28, 2021, on the Frankfurt Exchange in Germany under the symbol "9D50".

The Company's primary business is the holding company of Aduro Energy Inc. ("Aduro"). Aduro is an early-stage business focusing on developing environmentally responsible technology for converting end-of-life plastics and tire rubber to specialty chemicals and fuels that replace petroleum, upgrading of heavy crude oils and the transformation of renewable oils into renewable fuels and specialty chemicals. The water based chemical recycling platform features three sector focus applications, Hydrochemolytic Plastics Upcycling ("HPU"), Hydrochemolytic Renewables Upgrading ("HRU") and Hydrochemolytic Bitumen Upgrading ("HBU"). As at May 31, 2024 the Company has developed and owns eight patents, seven granted and one pending.

During the year ended May 31, 2024 and year ended May 31, 2023, the Company closed two non-brokered private placements (Note 12) that realized net proceeds of $5,626,435 which will be used for general working capital purposes to advance Aduro's scale-up and path to commercialization. As at May 31, 2024, the Company had a deficit of $22,896,076 since inception and incurred negative operating cash flows. As at May 31, 2024, the Company's working capital balance was $3,200,274 (May 31, 2023: $4,386,363) and available cash of $2,814,576 (May 31, 2023: $4,046,634). In addition, in June 2024, the Company closed a private placement that improves the Company's working capital and available cash position by $3,380,346 (Note 23). Therefore, management concludes that the Company has sufficient funds to fund its operations for the next twelve months. Ultimately the continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon generating profitable operations and obtaining funding, as required, to allow the Company to achieve its business objectives. While the Company's management believes that there are many financing opportunities available, there is no assurance that it will be able to successfully obtain additional financing as needed. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting policies applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due and do not reflect any adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate, significant adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the classifications used in the consolidated statements of financial position.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

a) Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements (the "Financial Statements") have been prepared based on the principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Preparation of these Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity and areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these Financial Statements are disclosed in Note 4.

These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on September 11, 2024.

b) Basis of consolidation

The financial statements of all entities controlled by the Company, including Aduro Energy Inc. and Aduro Clean Technologies Europe B.V., are included in the Financial Statements from the date control commenced. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The Company's subsidiaries have the same reporting date as the Company. Intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the year ended May 31, 2024
Expressed in Canadian Dollars

c) Basis of measurement

The Financial Statements have been prepared using the historical cost basis except as detailed in the Company's accounting policies in Note 3.

d) Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

The material accounting policy information set out below has been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated.

a) Foreign currency transaction

The Canadian dollar is the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiary. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Company at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the statement of financial position date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate in effect on the statement of financial position date with any resulting foreign exchange gain or loss recognized in net income (loss).

Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency gains and losses on transactions are reported on a net basis and recognized in foreign exchange under Expenses within Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss.

b) Financial instruments

All financial instruments are measured at fair value upon initial recognition of the transaction.

Measurement

Measurement in subsequent periods is dependent on whether the instrument is classified as "amortized cost", "fair value through profit or loss" or "fair value through other comprehensive income".

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual right to the cash flows from the asset expire or it transfers the right to receive the contractual cash flows from the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

All of the Company's financial assets and liabilities are classified as amortized cost.

Trade and other receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value, adjusted for any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, trade and other receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value net of any directly attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

c) Property and equipment

Items of property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

The cost of replacing a part of an item of property and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably.

For the year ended May 31, 2024
Expressed in Canadian Dollars

The costs of day-to-day servicing of property and equipment (i.e., repairs and maintenance) are recognized under Expenses in the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss as incurred.

A summary of the expected life and residual values for the Company's property and equipment as at May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023 was as follows:

	Expected Life	Residual Values
Computer equipment	5 years	-
Leasehold improvements	5 years	-
Laboratory	20 years	-
Motor vehicle	4 years	-
Office equipment	10 years	-
Research equipment	20 years	-

Depreciation is calculated based on the cost of the asset, less its estimated residual value. Depreciation is recognized in the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each class of asset.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized when it is either disposed of or when it is determined that no further economic benefit is expected from the item's future use or disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal, less associated costs of disposal, with the carrying amount of property and equipment, and are recognized in Other Items within the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss.

d) Identifiable intangible assets

Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Cost includes the purchase price and the directly attributable costs to bring the assets to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Finite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized. Amortization commences when an asset is ready for its intended use. Estimates of remaining useful lives are reviewed annually.

The amount initially recognized for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditures incurred from the date that the Company can demonstrate all of the following: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; (ii) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; (iii) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset; (iv) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. Until these criteria are met, expenditures are expensed as incurred.

A summary of the expected life and residual values for the Company's intangible assets as at May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023 was as follows:

	Expected Life	Residual Values
Investor relations videos	5 years	-
Patents	20 years from day of filing	-

e) Right-of-use assets and lease liability

Where the Company has entered a lease, the Company has recognized a right-of-use asset representing its rights to use the underlying assets and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. The right-of-use asset, where it relates to an operating lease, has been presented net of accumulated amortization and is disclosed under right-of-use assets on the statement of financial position. The right of use assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their estimated useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term, in which case, the estimated useful life of the asset is used. The lease liability has been disclosed as a separate line item, allocated between current and non-current liabilities. The lease liability associate with all leases is measured at the present value of the expected lease payments at inception and discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If the rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease liability. Judgement is required to determine the incremental borrowing rate.

f) Impairment

Financial assets

Financial assets are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that they are impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of the asset that can be estimated reliably.

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication of impairment. If an indication exists, then the asset's carrying amount is assessed for impairment. An impairment loss is recognized in net income (loss) if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing fair value less costs to sell, the Company must estimate the price that would be received to sell the asset less any incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using an appropriate discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and the decrease in impairment loss can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. Such reversal is recognized in net income (loss).

g) Share based compensation

Share based compensation expense relates to stock options and restricted share units ("RSUs"). Stock-based compensation expense relates to the fair value of the awards being expensed over their respective vesting periods.

Stock Options

The grant date fair value of stock options is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is recognized as an expense, with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus in equity, over the vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is based on the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest, which is revised if subsequent information indicates that actual forfeitures are likely to differ from the estimate. Upon exercise of stock options, the consideration paid by the holder is included in share capital and the related contributed surplus associated with the stock options exercised is reclassified into share capital. Where the terms of a stock option are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation arrangement or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification over the remaining vesting period. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received.

F-11

Aduro Clean Technologies Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Expressed in Canadian Dollars

Restricted share units ("RSUs")

The fair value of RSUs is measured based on the closing price of the Company's common shares on the date of grant. The fair value of each tranche of RSUs is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over its vesting period. The fair value of RSUs is charged to profit or loss with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus within equity. The amount recognized as an expense is based on the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest, which is revised if subsequent information indicates that actual forfeitures are likely to differ from the estimate. Upon vesting of equity settled RSUs, the related contributed surplus associated with the RSU is reclassified into share capital.

h) Provisions

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognized as a finance cost within the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss. As at May 31, 2024, the Company did not have any provisions.

i) Share capital

Share capital represents the amount received on the issue of shares, less issuance costs, net of any underlying income tax benefit from these issuance costs. If shares are issued when options and warrants are exercised, the share capital account also comprises the compensation costs previously recorded as contributed surplus and the fair value recorded under warrant reserve. If shares are issued within the conversion option on convertible securities' exercise, the share capital account also comprises the equity component of any of the convertible securities. Common shares issued for consideration other than cash are valued based on the fair value at the date the common shares are issued.

j) Share purchase warrants

Share purchase warrants when issued were initially measured at fair value using a Black Scholes model and the fair value is recognized in Warrants Reserve. When the share purchase warrants are exercised, the fair value attributable to the warrants exercised are added to the proceeds received and shown under share capital.

k) Revenues from contracts with customers

Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the product and/or service. Control is achieved when a product is delivered to or the service is performed for the customer, the Company has a present right to payment for the product and/or service, significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer according to contract terms and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer's acceptance of the product and/or service. For contract services that last over a year, revenue is recognized over the duration of the contract.

l) Government grants

Research and experimental development tax credits are recognized using the cost reduction method in the year that they are received by the Company. Investment tax credits are subject to the customary approvals by the pertinent tax authorities. Adjustments, if required, are reflected in the year when such assessments are received.

m) Finance costs

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, costs associated with securing debt instruments and unwinding of the discount on provisions.

n) Research and development

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs are only capitalized when the product or process is clearly defined; the technical feasibility has been established; the future market for the product or process is clearly defined; and the Company is committed, and has the resources, to complete the project. During the year ended May 31, 2024 and year ended May 31, 2023, no development costs were deferred and accounted for as identified intangible assets.

o) Income tax

Income tax expense is comprised of current and deferred income taxes. Income tax is recognized in net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in equity on the consolidated statements of financial position. Current income tax is calculated using tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Deferred income taxes are recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income taxes are determined using tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible balances can be utilized. All deferred tax assets are analyzed at each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the asset will be recovered.

p) Earnings (loss) per share

Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Under this method, the weighted average number of common shares used to calculate the dilutive effect in the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss assumes that the proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options, warrants and similar instruments would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period.

In periods where a net loss is incurred, basic and diluted loss per share is the same as the effect of outstanding stock options and warrants would be anti-dilutive.

At year end May 31, 2024, the Company had 7,611,499 options and 3,161,461 warrants outstanding that were in-the-money based on the volume weighted average price during the year ended May 31, 2024, which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are antidilutive for the period(s) presented.

q) Operating segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company's other operating segments. All operating segments' results are reviewed regularly by senior management to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the operating segment and assess its performance. Operating segment results that are reported to senior management include items directly attributable to an operating segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. The Company has one reportable operating segment.

r) Standards adopted in the year

The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards during the year ended May 31, 2024.

s) New interpretations and amendments not yet adopted

There are no new interpretations or amendments not yet adopted that the Company expects will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies (described in Note 3) and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Certain of the Company's accounting policies and disclosures require key assumptions concerning the future and other estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities or disclosures within the next fiscal year. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability. The critical accounting estimates and judgments set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements.

a) Ability to continue as a going concern

Evaluation of the ability of the Company to realize its strategy for funding its future needs for working capital involves making judgments.

b) Property and equipment/intangible assets

Property and equipment/intangible assets are depreciated/amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset to the asset's estimated residual value as determined by management. All estimates of useful lives and residual values are set out in Notes 3 c), d) and e). Assessing the reasonableness of the estimated useful life, residual value and the appropriate depreciation/amortization methodology requires judgment and is based on management's experience and knowledge of the industry.

c) Impairment

An evaluation of whether or not an asset is impaired involves consideration of whether indicators of impairment exist. Factors which could indicate impairment exists include: significant underperformance of an asset relative to historical or projected operating results, significant changes in the manner in which an asset is used or in the Company's overall business strategy, the carrying amount of the net assets of the Company being more than its market capitalization or significant negative industry or economic trends. In some cases, these events are clear. However, in many cases, a clearly identifiable event indicating possible impairment does not occur. Instead, a series of individually insignificant events occur over a period of time leading to an indication that an asset may be impaired. Events can occur in these situations that may not be known until a date subsequent to their occurrence. When there is an indicator of impairment, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of impairment, if any. If indicators conclude that the asset is no longer impaired, the Company will reverse impairment losses on assets only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. Similar to determining if an impairment exists, judgment is required in assessing if a reversal of an impairment loss is required.

d) Warrants, stock options, and restricted share units

Share purchase warrants and stock options are initially valued at fair value, based on the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This pricing model requires management to make various assumptions and estimates which are susceptible to uncertainty, including the volatility of the share price, expected dividend yield, expected term of the warrant or stock option and expected risk-free interest rate. Prior to June 1, 2023, the shares of the Company had a limited trading history and therefore management used the volatility of the shares of four companies that management estimated were similar in nature to the Company's activities. Subsequent to June 1, 2023, the Company has elected to use its own trading history for the purposes of calculating volatility.

The fair value of Restricted Share Units (RSUs) is measured based on the closing price of the Company's common shares on the date of grant. The fair value of each tranche of RSUs is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over its vesting period. The fair value of RSUs is charged to profit or loss with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus within equity. The amount recognized as an expense is based on the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest, which is revised if subsequent information indicates that actual forfeitures are likely to differ from the estimate. Upon vesting of equity settled RSUs, the related contributed surplus associated with the RSU is reclassified into share capital.

Investor relations videos

The Company engaged two production companies with each producing a promotional 3D animation movie for the purpose of implementing a marketing strategy for communicating with, and increasing awareness of the Company's solutions by, investors, partners and customers.

Patents

On January 24, 2018, the Company entered into a patent purchase agreement (the "PPA") whereby the Company purchased the seller/assignor's entire right, title and interest (being 7/12 of the rights) in and to the transferred patents (as defined) for a purchase price comprised of the reimbursement of US$60,535 ($76,858) in patent costs incurred (paid) and the payment of the greater of 0.1% of purchaser revenues or 1% of purchaser net profit (both as defined) on a quarterly basis during the term "Purchase Price Payable". On August 14, 2020, the Company and the seller/assignor entered into an amendment to the PPA pursuant to which the Purchase Price Payable was settled by issuing 1,500 Class B shares (the "Settlement") to the seller/assignor. The Company determined the fair value of the Settlement was $2,265 and this amount was expensed as the Purchase Price Payable was not a contractual obligation under the PPA.

Development costs

On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into a commercialization services agreement (the "CSA") with Bioindustrial Innovation Canada ("BIC") whereby the Company and certain commercialization service providers will carry out a project titled, "Development of a Hydrochemolytic Pilot Unit for Upgrading Asphaltene and Waste Plastics" for the purpose of designing, commissioning and building a revenue generating, pilot-scale start-up unit to process potential customers' feedstock to demonstrate the Company's patented HPU technology. On March 15, 2022, the agreement was amended, and the term of the CSA was changed to January 31, 2023, from March 31, 2022. The total project cost is $1,826,888 (being $445,720 in cash and $1,381,168 in-kind) and Aduro's contribution is $1,396,888 (being $195,720 in cash and $1,201,168 in-kind). Aduro paid the required 100% of its contribution to BIC prior to the start of service. To date BIC has requested a payment of $30,000 which was paid in January 2021 and expensed to research and development. The CSA includes a commercialization rebate estimated to be approximately $250,000 net of taxes. The commercialization rebate accrued to date is $250,000, all of which has been used for payments made by BIC. For the purposes of the financial statements, the commercialization rebate accrued and the expenses related to the payments made by the BIC have been offset as this treatment reflects the settlement arrangement under the CSA and that the expenses might not have been incurred unless the commercialization rebate was available.

Patents controlled by the Company not recognized as an intangible asset

The Company has control over various patents that were not recognized by the Company as an asset as it was not possible to determine whether the assets meet the recognition criteria of IAS 38 Intangible Assets.

The Company has recognized all expenses incurred in developing these patents under Research and development in the Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss.

As at May 31, 2024, the Company had incurred $872,813 (May 31, 2023: $669,026) in patent development costs.

10. DEBT

As at May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023, the Company's debt instruments were as follows:

	May 31, 2024 $	May 31, 2023 $
Working capital loan - BDC	-	18,869
Accrued interest - working capital loan - BDC	-	145
Term loan	-	8,464
Total debt	-	27,478

Working capital loan - BDC

On August 21, 2017, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the "LA") with the Business Development Bank of Canada (the "BDC") whereby the Company received a $100,000 working capital loan. The loan bore interest at the BDC's floating base rate (5.05% at inception) plus a variance (3.4% at inception). The original term of the loan was 60 months with the principal balance, interest and all other amounts owing under the loan being due and payable by the maturity date. The loan is secured by a personal guarantee from the president of the Company. On September 8, 2020 and on March 17, 2021, the Company and the BDC amended the agreement (the "Amending Letter") which updated the amending and standstill agreement dated September 8, 2020. The Amending Letter outlined the new repayment amounts and repayment dates together with a new maturity date of May 8, 2024. The last monthly principal payment of $1,665 was paid on April 30, 2024 with a final payment of $554 on May 8, 2024.

Term Loan

On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a conditional sale contract (the "CS") to purchase a motor vehicle. At the start date of the CS, the balance was $34,771 which was to be repaid by 36 monthly repayments of $966. The interest rate under the CS was fixed at 5.99%. On October 6, 2023, the motor vehicle was sold for $11,000 and the outstanding loan amount of $4,770 was paid in full.

The Company's exposure to foreign exchange and liquidity risk related to debt is disclosed in Note 20.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk. The lease liability have fixed cost of funds rate until maturity though subject to interest rate fluctuations if refinanced.

Foreign exchange risk

The Company is primarily exposed to foreign currency fluctuations in relation to its US dollar trade payables. US dollar financial instruments subject to foreign exchange risk are summarized below. The Company has assessed the risk and decided not to hedge the risk.

(US$)	May 31, 2024 $	May 31, 2023 $
Cash and cash equivalents	140	185
Trade payables	37,647	13,542
Net US dollar exposure	37,507	13,357

As at May 31, 2024, with other variables unchanged, a $0.10 change in the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would result in a $3,751 pre-tax loss (May 31, 2023: $1,336) from the Company's financial instruments.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents held with a bank as well as credit exposure to customers in the form of outstanding trade and other receivables but excluding balances receivable from government entities. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the Company's cash and other receivables which reflects management's assessment of the credit risk which at May 31, 2024 was $3,066,515 (May 31, 2023: $4,177,152).

Impairment losses

The allowance for doubtful accounts in respect of other receivables is used to record impairment losses unless the Company is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible. At that point, the amounts are considered unrecoverable and are written off against the financial asset directly. The Company did not record any impairment for years ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2023.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the exposure of the Company to the risk of not being able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages liquidity risk through management of its cash and cash equivalents and working capital balances.

The table below provides an analysis of the expected maturities of the Company's outstanding obligations as at May 31, 2024:

		Due prior to
	Amount	2025	2026	2027	2028+

Lease liability (Note 11)	138,586	40,356	44,136	48,627	5,467
Total expected maturities	600,533	502,303	44,136	48,627	5,467

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

The Company's primary business is the holding company of Aduro Energy Inc. ("Aduro"). Aduro is an early-stage business focusing on developing environmentally responsible technology for converting end-of-life plastics and tire rubber to specialty chemicals and fuels that replace petroleum, upgrading of heavy crude oils and the transformation of renewable oils into renewable fuels and specialty chemicals. The water based chemical recycling platform features three sector focus applications, Hydrochemolytic Plastics Upcycling ("HPU"), Hydrochemolytic Renewables Upgrading ("HRU") and Hydrochemolytic Bitumen Upgrading ("HBU"). As at August 31, 2024 the Company has developed and owns nine patents, seven granted and two pending.

The registered and records office of the Company is located at Suite 2300, Bentall 5, 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6C 2B5, and the head office of the Company is located at 542 Newbold Street, London, ON, Canada N6E 2S5. During the three months ended August 31, 2024 and year ended May 31, 2024, the Company closed one non-brokered private placement (Note 9) that realized net proceeds of $3,348,844 which will be used for general working capital purposes to advance Aduro's scale-up and path to commercialization. As at August 31, 2024, the Company had a deficit of $25,358,608 since inception and incurred negative operating cash flows. As at August 31, 2024, the Company's working capital balance was $6,455,041 (May 31, 2024: $3,200,274) and available cash of $5,950,892 (May 31, 2024: $2,814,576). Therefore, management concludes that the Company has sufficient funds to fund its operations for the next twelve months. Ultimately the continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon generating profitable operations and obtaining funding, as required, to allow the Company to achieve its business objectives. While the Company's management believes that there are many financing opportunities available, there is no assurance that it will be able to successfully obtain additional financing as needed. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting policies applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due and do not reflect any adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate, significant adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the classifications used in the consolidated statements of financial position.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

a) Statement of compliance

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), London, and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company's most recent annual financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2024 and accompanying notes.

These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on October 30, 2024. b) Basis of consolidation

Expressed in Canadian Dollars

c) Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost basis except as detailed in the Company's accounting policies in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statement for the year ended May 31, 2024.

d) Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES, AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

a) Ability to continue as a going concern

Evaluation of the ability of the Company to realize its strategy for funding its future needs for working capital involves making judgments.

b) Property and equipment

Property and equipment are depreciated/amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset to the asset's estimated residual value as determined by management. Assessing the reasonableness of the estimated useful life, residual value and the appropriate depreciation/amortization methodology requires judgment and is based on management's experience and knowledge of the industry.

c) Impairment

d) Warrants, stock options, and restricted share units
