Material Facts
There are no material facts about the securities being distributed hereunder that have not been disclosed either in this Amended and Restated Offering Document or in another document filed by the Company over the 12 months preceding the date of this Amended and Restated Offering Document.
What are the business objectives that we expect to accomplish using the available funds?
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to support the re-start of lease originations in the first quarter of 2026 funding both “flow” and “haircut capital” under facilities entered into by a bankruptcy remote trust owned by the Company and for working capital purposes.
The Company believes that the net proceeds of the Offering together with other available funds (including from the completion of the Concurrent Financing) will be sufficient to fund the foregoing objective and to meet the Company’s liquidity needs for a period of 12 months following the Closing Date.
USE OF AVAILABLE FUNDS
What will our available funds be upon the closing of the Offering?
The following table discloses what the expected available funds will be after the Offering:
| Assuming 100% of Offering ($) | Assuming 100% Offering + full exercise of Agents’ Option ($) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Amount to be raised by this Offering | 15,000,000 | 16,980,000^{(4)} |
| B | Selling commissions and fees | 750,000 | 849,000 |
| Assuming 100% of Offering ($) | Assuming 100% Offering + full exercise of Agents’ Option ($) | ||
|---|---|---|---|

| D | Net proceeds of Offering: D = A – (B+C) | 13,900,000 | 15,781,000 |
| E | Working capital as at most recent month end (deficiency) (October) (2) | (515,000) | (515,000) |
| F | Additional sources of funding (3) | 23,500,000 | 27,278,800 (4) |
| G | Total available funds: G = D+E+F | 36,885,000 | 42,544,800 |
(1) This figures represents the estimated expenses of the Offering and the Concurrent Financing, together.
(2) An estimate of management and actual results by differ. An estimate for the month ended November 30, 2025 was not available as at the date of this document.
(3) Additional sources of funding represents the estimated net proceeds of the Concurrent Financing, after deducting a commission payable to the Agents of 6% and assuming no participation on the president's list on which a reduced commission of 3% is payable. As mentioned in note (1) above, the estimated expenses of the Concurrent Financing are accounted for as an aggregate estimate in Item C of the above table.
(4) The Agents' Option is exercisable to offer and sell additional Units, additional Convertible Debenture Units, or any combination of Units and Convertible Debenture Units, for additional aggregate gross proceeds of $6,000,000; provided that the exercise of the Agents' Option for additional Units is limited to a maximum of $1,980,000. For purposes of completing the table above, the figures assume the Agents' Option is exercised for an additional $1,980,000 of Units and $4,020,000 of Convertible Debenture Units. The actual allocation of any Agents' Option exercise may differ.
The Company has experienced a decline in working capital since December 31, 2024, as a result of operating expenses.
How will we use the available funds?
| Description of intended use of available funds listed in order of priority | Assuming 100% of Offering ($) | Assuming 100% of Offering + full exercise of Agents’ Option ($) |
|---|---|---|
| Lease origination funding | 26,085,000 | 30,544,800 |
| Working Capital | 10,800,000 | 12,000,000 |
| Total: | 36,885,000 | 42,544,800 |
The above noted allocation and anticipated timing represents the Company's current intentions with respect to its use of available funds based on current knowledge, planning and expectations of management of the Company. Although the Company intends to expend the proceeds from the Offering and the Concurrent Financing as set forth above, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be deemed prudent or necessary and may vary materially from that set forth above, as the amounts actually allocated and spent will depend on a number of factors, including the Company's ability to execute on its business plan.
The most recent audited annual financial statements and interim financial report of the Company included a going concern note. The continuity of the Company's operations is dependent on raising future financing for working capital and obtaining profitable operations. While the Company believes that it will be able to secure the necessary financing through shareholder loans and the issuance of new equity or debt instruments, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in these actions. There can be no assurance that adequate financing will be available or available at terms favorable to the Company. The Offering is intended to provide such financing the Company to obtain profitable operations in the future
and is not expected to affect the decision to include a going concern note in the next annual financial statements of the Company.
How have we used the other funds we have raised in the past 12 months?
The Company has not completed any financing in the past 12 months. Operations have been financed from available working capital.
