On December 11, 2023, the Company announced the Offering for up to 6,666,666 Units of the Company.

On December 22, 2023, the Company announced it had upsized the Offering and filed an amended and restated offering document to upsize the maximum gross proceeds under the Offering from C$2,000,000 to C$2,500,000, consisting of a maximum of 8,333,333 Units.

In addition to the Offering, the Company also completed a concurrent non-brokered offering to United States investors with equivalent commercial terms as the Offering (the “ Concurrent Offering ”), for a total of 316,687 Units. The securities issued under the Concurrent Offering are subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

Material facts

There are no material facts about the Units that have not been disclosed in this offering document or in any other document filed by the Company in the twelve months preceding the date of this offering document and the date the Company’s most recent audited annual financial statements were filed.

What are the business objectives that we expect to accomplish using the available funds?

The net proceeds of the Offering are intended to fund general working capital needs and to invest approximately C$700,000 over the next 12-18 months in additional sales and marketing resources needed to close prospective deals in our sales pipeline, that would be less likely to close without these additional resources. Given that the Company engages in multiyear engagements, the Company believe that improving its balance sheet will also augment due diligence and closings with those enterprise customers as well, while it simultaneously progresses towards its profitability objective. No significant event must occur other than the closing of the Offering. The Company’s core technology (upon which it licenses its platform) is mature and stable. While the Company does plan to continue product development, there is no material development work required (as a use of funds) for the Company to achieve its projected revenue goals. With the additional sales and marketing resources, with better targeted customer expertise, the Company does believe it could grow faster and thus achieve its profitability goals sooner.

USE OF AVAILABLE FUNDS

  • 5 -

What will our available funds be upon the closing of the Offering?

Based on the Company’s existing working capital[1] as at September 30, 2023, of US$687,000 (CAD equivalent C$932,479), the Company’s expected availability of funds following closing of the Offering is expected to be approximately C$3,287,000, assuming the full amount of the Offering is raised.

1 The Company reports Working Capital with and without non-cash Deferred Revenue liabilities, as defined and reported in its filed Management’s Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"). For the 3 and 6-month period ending September 30, 2023 (2Q Fiscal 2024 – filed on Nov 29, 2023), the Company reported pro forma Working Capital of US$687,000 (CAD equivalent C$932,479). As disclosed on Page 9 of that filed MD&A: “It should be noted that deferred revenue of US$2.9 million reflects new and recurring licenses that are contractually non-refundable at the beginning of each annual license term, then recognized over the license term (amortizing the deferred revenue down), versus a liability expected to be paid in cash”.

  • 2 The Company is using the figures from the quarter ending September 30, 2023 (reported and filed on November 29, 2023) figures as a proxy, instead of the November ending figures for two reasons. First, the defined terms and figures used in this Offering Document were disclosed in much better detail within those filed interim financials and associated MD&A. Second, the Company does not normally close its books on a monthly basis given its India subsidiary, (Boardwalktech India Pvt Ltd). That said, the Company does not believe there has been a material change to the reported financial figures since those filings.

How will we use the available funds?

The Company intends on using the net proceeds of the Offering to fund sales and marketing efforts to grow revenue from existing product offerings, balance sheet, and for general working capital purposes.

Notes:

  • 6 -

  • (1) Amounts projected to be utilized by the Company to support operations and for general working capital purposes.

  • (2) This cash is expected not to be used, but retained on the Company's balance sheet to improve net working capital levels, and to maintain a stronger balance sheet in order to facilitate any credit or going concern assessment, while such levels would also aid in the closing of prospective customer deals. This cash is not actually restricted but is being targeted as a reserved amount of cash equivalents (invested via liquid and interest-bearing, guaranteed sweep accounts)

The above noted allocation represents the Company’s current intentions with respect to its use of proceeds based on current knowledge, planning and expectations of management of the Company. Although the Company intends to expend the proceeds from this Offering 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 and financing objectives. The Company has had negative cash flow from operating activities and reported an income (loss) for the sixmonths ended of September 30, 2023. The Company anticipates that negative operating cash flows will continue in the near-term until anticipated revenue growth (from the invested proceeds into sales and marketing) hit a breakeven point (anticipated in the forthcoming year), and to the extent that the Company has negative cash flows from operating activities in the future periods, the net proceeds from this Offering may be used to fund such negative cash flow from operating activities in future periods.

The Company’s most recent audited financial statements (for the Fiscal Year ended March 31, 2023, as filed on June 27, 2023) and its interim financial statements since then, did not include a going concern note.

As reported in the Company’s Interim Financial Statements and Management Decision and Analysis (MD&A) for the three and six-month period ending September 30, 2023 (2Q Fiscal 2024), filed on November 29, 2023, since the Company’s last audited financial statements, working capital did decline US$1.1 million due to continuing operating losses and the timing of large annual license renewals. However, over the past twelve months the Company’s cash usage from operating activities, as reported in the Company’s Financial Statements, for the four reported quarter (3Q Fiscal 2023 to 2Q Fiscal 2024, October 2022 to September 2023 inclusive) totaled US$(962,000). Since the Company is being asked to project usage of funds over the next 12 months (consistent with our ongoing going concern analysis), and the fact that the Company executes annual licenses, the Company is using the trailing twelve-month metric to better match periods for better comparable analysis. The Company believes it is making material progress towards its goal of cash breakeven, as the Company reported in its most recent MD&A a year-over-year improvement in net income losses of 40% and a year-over-year improvement in Adjusted EBITDA of 47% over that same period, as indications of continuing progress to cash sustainability. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS metric and is defined as operating income (loss) less interest, taxes, depreciation, and share-based payments.

How have we used the other funds we have raised in the past 12 months?

Given that the initial tranche of the Offering only closed on December 28, 2023, the Company has not yet utilized the funds raised in the first tranche of the Offering, and has not raised any other funds prior to this in the past 12 months. The Company expects to use the funds raised in the Offering for working capital purposes, sales and marketing and balance sheet enhancement. See “How Will We Use the Available Funds” above for more details.

FEES AND COMMISSIONS

Who are the dealers or finders that we have engaged in connection with this Offering, if any, and what are their fees?

In connection with the initial tranche of the Offering completed on December 28, 2023, the Company paid aggregate finder fees of approximately C$107,968 in cash commissions, being 8% of the amount of subscriptions that each finder brought in connection to the Offering, and 359,893 non-transferrable warrants of the Company exercisable until December 28, 2026, with each warrant exercisable to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.50 (the “ Finder’s Warrants ”), being 8% of the amount of subscriptions that each finder brings in connection to the Offering. Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. received cash commissions of $50,256 and 167,520 Finder’s Warrants; Canaccord Genuity Corp. received cash commissions of $17,712 and 59,040 Finder’s Warrants; and Numus Capital Corp. received cash

  • 7 -

commissions of $40,000 and 133,333 Finder’s Warrants.

The Finder’s Warrants are subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

The Company may elect to pay additional finders’ fees to eligible parties who have introduced subscribers to any additional tranches of the Offering, and will determine the amount of such fees in negotiation with the eligible parties, in accordance with the policies of the TSXV.
