Application has been made for 63,636,363 new Common Shares (comprising the Retail Offer Shares and 57,454,545 new Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing) to be admitted to trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and AIM. Subject to the receipt of required approvals from the TSX and AIM, admission to AIM will take place at or around 8.00 a.m. on October 30, 2025. Admission to the TSX will take place upon settlement of the Placing, on or around October 30, 2025.

Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Placing.
