PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT to the Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus dated May 11, 2022

NEW ISSUE July 31, 2023

$6,002,202

1,905,461 Units

This prospectus supplement (this "Prospectus Supplement") of Eloro Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Eloro"), together with the short form base shelf prospectus dated May 11, 2022 (the "Prospectus"), qualifies the distribution (the "Offering") of an aggregate of 1,905,461 units of the Company (the "Units") at an offering price of $3.15 per Unit (the "Offering Price") pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") dated as of July 31, 2023 between the Company, Haywood Securities Inc. ("Haywood") and Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation (together with Haywood, the "Underwriters") as co-lead underwriters and joint bookrunners. The Offering Price was determined by arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Underwriters, with reference to the prevailing market price of the common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares").

Each Unit is comprised of one Common Share (each, a "Unit Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, one Common Share (each, a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $4.25 for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date (as defined herein). The Warrants will be governed by a warrant indenture to be entered into on the Closing Date (as defined herein) between the Company and TSX Trust Company, as warrant agent. The Units will immediately separate into Unit Shares and Warrants upon issuance.

The Common Shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") under the trading symbol "ELO". The Common Shares also trade on the OTCQX in the United States under the symbol "ELRRF" and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (the "FSE") under the symbol "P2QM". On July 28, 2023, the last trading day prior to the date hereof, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX was $3.15, on the OTCQX was US$2.38 and on the FSE was €2.065. The Company has applied to list the Unit Shares, Warrant Shares, Additional Unit Shares (as defined herein), Additional Warrant Shares (as defined below) and Compensation Shares (as defined below) on the TSX. The TSX has not approved the Company's listing application and there is no assurance the TSX will approve the listing application. Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX.

The Company has not applied and does not intend to apply to list the Warrants on the TSX or any other securities exchange. There is no market through which the Warrants may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell Warrants purchased under this Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of the Warrants in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Warrants and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors".

Price: $3.15 per Unit

Price to the Public Underwriting Commission(1) Net Proceeds to the Company
Per Unit $3.15 $0.189 $2.961
Total (3) $6,002,202 $360,132 $5,642,070(2)

Notes:

(1) Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay to the Underwriters an aggregate cash fee (the "Underwriting Commission") of $360,132, representing 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering, or $414,152 after taking into account the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option (as defined herein) for Additional Units (as defined herein). The Underwriters will also receive, at the Closing Date, compensation options (the "Compensation Options") to purchase a number of Common Shares equal to 6% of the aggregate number of Units issued by the Company under the Offering (including pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option (as defined below)). The Compensation Options will be exercisable at the price per Common Share equal to the Offering Price and for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date (the "Compensation Shares").

(2) After deducting the Underwriting Commission, but before deducting expenses related to the Offering estimated at $250,000, which will be paid from the proceeds of the Offering. See "Use of Proceeds".

(3) The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), exercisable in whole or in part in the sole discretion of the Underwriters at any time until the date which is 30 days following the Closing Date (as defined herein), to purchase severally, and not jointly, nor jointly and severally, up to an additional 285,819 Units (the "Additional Units") at a price of $3.15 per Additional Unit, with each Additional Unit being comprised of one Unit Share (each, an "Additional Unit Share") and one-half of one Warrant (each whole Warrant, an "Additional Warrant" and together with the Additional Units and Additional Unit Shares, the "Additional Securities"). Each Additional Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, one Warrant Share (each, an "Additional Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $4.25 for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full for Additional Securities, the total "Price to the Public", the "Underwriting Commission" and the "Net Proceeds to the Company" (before deducting expenses of the Offering) will be $6,902,532, $414,152 and $6,488,381, respectively.

This Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus also qualify the grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the distribution of the Additional Securities upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. Any purchaser who acquires Additional Units forming part of the over-allotment position of the Underwriters pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option acquires such securities under this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. See "Plan of Distribution".

Unless the context otherwise requires, when used herein, all references to "Units", "Unit Shares" and "Warrants" include the Additional Units, Additional Unit Shares and Additional Warrants, as applicable, issuable upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Option.

The Underwriters, as principals, conditionally offer the Units, subject to prior sale, if, as and when issued by the Company and accepted by the Underwriters in accordance with the conditions contained in the Underwriting Agreement referred to under "Plan of Distribution" and subject to approval of certain legal matters on behalf of the Company by Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP and on behalf of the Underwriters by McMillan LLP.

The Offering is being made concurrently in each of the provinces of Canada, excluding Québec. The Units will be offered in Canada through the Underwriters either directly or through their agents, as applicable. Offers and sales of Units outside of Canada will be made in accordance with applicable laws in such jurisdictions. See "Plan of Distribution".

Closing is expected to take place on or about August 3, 2023 or such other date as may be agreed between the Company and the Underwriters (the "Closing Date").

An instant deposit through the non-certificated inventory ("NCI") system representing the Unit Shares and Warrants comprising the Units will be issued and deposited with CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. ("CDS"). Except as set forth herein, a subscriber who purchases Units will receive only a customer confirmation from the registered dealer who is a CDS participant (a "CDS Participant") from or through whom Units are purchased. CDS will record the CDS Participants who hold the Unit Shares and Warrants on behalf of owners who have purchased or transferred Unit Shares or Warrants in accordance with the book entry only system of CDS. Physical certificates evidencing Unit Shares and Warrants will not be issued except in limited circumstances and unless a request for a certificate is made to the Company.

Subscriptions for the Units will be received subject to rejection or allotment in whole or in part and the right is reserved to close the subscription books at any time without notice. In connection with the Offering and subject to applicable laws, the Underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares in accordance with applicable market stabilization rules. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See "Plan of Distribution".

The Units sold by the Underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the Offering Price. After the Underwriters have made a reasonable effort to sell all of the Units at the Offering Price specified on the cover page, the Underwriters may change the Offering Price to an amount not greater than the Offering Price set forth on the cover page, and the compensation realized by the Underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by the purchasers for the Units is less than the gross proceeds paid by the Underwriters to the Company. The Underwriters may decrease the price at which the Units are distributed from the Offering Price. See "Plan of Distribution".

The following table sets forth the number of Additional Securities issuable under the Over-Allotment Option:

Underwriters' Position Maximum Size Exercise Period Exercise Price
Over-Allotment Option 285,819 Additional Units (comprisedof 285,819 Additional Unit Shares and Up to 30 days from and includingthe Closing Date $3.15 per Additional Unit

Although generally indicative of relative market positions, market shares and performance characteristics, this data is inherently imprecise. While the Company is not aware of any misstatements regarding any data presented herein, the mining industry involves risks and uncertainties and the data is subject to change based on various factors.

In addition, all disclosure contained herein concerning future plans for the Iska Iska Project is subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth in the Technical Report.

Readers of this Prospectus Supplement are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking information due to its inherent uncertainty. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities legislation. This forward-looking information should not be relied upon as representing management's views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Prospectus Supplement.

The Company owns 98%, together with an option to acquire an additional 1%, of Minera Tupiza SRL which has an option to acquire from Empresa Minera Villegas SRL ("Empresa Minera") a 99% interest in the Iska Iska project (the "Iska Iska Project" or "Iska Iska") which can be classified as a polymetallic epithermal-porphyry complex, a significant mineral deposit type in the Potosi Department, in southern Bolivia. In order to acquire its interest in Iska Iska pursuant to the said option, the Company is required to: (a) issue 250,000 Common Shares to Empresa Minera within 30 days of the date of the agreement which granted the option (these Common Shares have been issued); (b) issue a further 250,000 Common Shares to Empresa Minera by January 6, 2022 (these Common Shares have also been issued); and (c) pay US$10 million to Empresa Minera by July 6, 2024 (US$4.4 million of the said US$10 million has been paid by the Company to date). The Technical Report with respect to the Iska Iska Project is available under the Company's filings on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

For further information regarding the Company and the Iska Iska Project, including recent developments since the beginning of the Company's current financial year on April 1, 2022 to the date of this Prospectus Supplement, see the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement available under the Company's filings on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in securities of the Company is speculative and involves a high degree of risk due to the nature of the Company's business and the present stage of its development. The following risk factors, as well as risks currently unknown to the Company, could materially adversely affect the Company's future business, operations and financial condition and could cause them to differ materially from the estimates described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company, or its business, property or financial results, each of which could cause purchasers of securities of the Company to lose part or all of their investment. The risks set out below are not the only risks faced by the Company; risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, investors should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the risks described under the "Risk Factors" section of the Prospectus and the AIF before purchasing the Units.

Volatility

In recent years, the securities markets have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies has experienced wide fluctuations, which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that such fluctuations will not affect the price of the Company's securities, including the Units and the Unit Shares and Warrants, and the price may decline below their acquisition cost. As a result of this volatility, investors may not be able to sell their securities at or above their acquisition cost.

Securities of resource exploration companies such as Eloro have experienced substantial volatility in the past, often based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These factors include macroeconomic developments in the countries where these companies carry on business and globally, and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries. The price of the securities of the Company is also likely to be significantly affected by short-term changes in commodity prices, other precious metal prices or other mineral prices, currency exchange fluctuation and the political environment in the countries in which the Company does business and globally.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, shareholders have often instituted class action securities litigation against those companies. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could significantly harm the Company's development and reputation.

Investors may lose their entire investment

There is no guarantee that an investment in the Units will earn any positive return in the short term or long term. A purchase of Units under the Offering involves a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by purchasers whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. An investment in the Units is speculative and may result in the loss of an investor's entire investment. Only potential investors who are experienced in high risk investments and who can afford to lose their entire investment should consider an investment in the Company.

Discretion over use of proceeds

The Company currently intends to allocate the net proceeds it will receive from the Offering as described under "Use of Proceeds" in this Prospectus Supplement; however, the Company will have discretion in the actual application of the net proceeds. The Company may elect to allocate the net proceeds differently from that described in "Use of Proceeds" in this Prospectus Supplement if the Company believes it would be in the Company's best interests to do so. The Company's investors may not agree with the manner in which the Company chooses to allocate and spend the net proceeds from an Offering. The failure by the Company to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company.

Liquidity of Common Shares

Shareholders of the Company may be unable to sell significant quantities of Common Shares into the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of their Common Shares, or at all. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity of the Common Shares on the trading market, and that the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX, OTCQX or FSE, or achieve listing on any other public listing exchange.

Dilution from exercise or conversion of stock options, restricted share units and share purchase warrants (including the Warrants)

The Company has outstanding stock options, restricted share units and share purchase warrants, in each case representing a right to receive Common Shares upon the exercise or conversion of such stock options, restricted share units and share purchase warrants. The exercise or conversion of such stock options, restricted share units and share purchase warrants or the Warrants and the subsequent resale of any Common Shares issued upon the exercise thereof in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the Common Shares and the Company's ability to raise equity capital in the future at a time and price which deems it appropriate. The Company may also enter into commitments in the future which would require the issuance of additional Common Shares or may grant additional share purchase warrants, and the Company is expected to grant additional stock options and restricted share units. Any Common Share issuances from the Company's treasury will result in immediate dilution to existing shareholders' percentage interest in the Company.

Dilution from equity financing could negatively impact holders of Common Shares

The Company may from time to time raise funds through the issuance of Common Shares or the issuance of debt instruments or other securities convertible into Common Shares. The Company cannot predict the size or price of future issuances of Common Shares or the size or terms of future issuances of debt instruments or other securities convertible into Common Shares, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of the Company's securities will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Sales or issuances of substantial numbers of Common Shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Common Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of Common Shares, or securities convertible into Common Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and the Company may experience dilution in any earnings per share.

Warrants will not be listed for trading

There is no market in which the Warrants may be sold, and purchasers may not be able to resell the Warrants that are purchased hereunder. The Warrants will not be listed on a stock exchange. This may affect the pricing of the Warrants in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Warrants and the extent of issuer regulation.

Negative Operating Cash Flows and Potential Need for Additional Financing

During the year ended March 31, 2023, and during the interim period ended December 31, 2022, the Company had negative cash flow from operating activities. The Company anticipates it will continue to have negative cash flow from operating activities in future periods. Despite the anticipated net proceeds from the Offering, the Company anticipates requiring additional financing, including through issue and sale of equity and/or debt securities or the sale of assets to satisfy its business objectives. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain necessary financing in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, if at all. If sufficient capital is not available, the Company may be required to delay the expansion of its business and operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, prospects or results of operations.

Market Price of Common Shares

The trading price of the Common Shares is also likely to be significantly affected by changes from time to time in the Company's operating results, financial condition, liquidity and other internal and external factors. If a holder of Common Shares sells its Common Shares, the price received may be more or less than the original investment. The Common Shares may trade at a discount from their book value or at a price that is less than the Offering Price.

CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION

The following table shows the effect of the Offering on the Company's share capital as at the most recent financial period for which the annual financial statements have been filed. This table should be read in conjunction with the Company's associated management's discussion and analysis, incorporated by reference herein:

(6) 131,476 Compensation Options (exercisable for a total of 131,476 Common Shares) will also be issued under the Offering.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering will be $6,002,202 and the net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are estimated to be $5,392,070, not including the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, after deducting the Underwriting Commission and the expenses of the Offering (including the out-of-pocket expenses of the Underwriters, the Underwriters' legal expenses, and the legal and other expenses of the Company), which are estimated to be $250,000.

Business Objectives

From commencement of diamond drilling at the Iska Iska silver-tin polymetallic project on September 13, 2020, the Company has completed 109,486m metres of drilling in 138 holes, the majority of which have been in the Santa Barbara target area. This work has outlined an extensive higher grade mineralized system in the Santa Barbara deposit that extends some 1,200 metres along strike, is up to 800m wide and extends to a depth of over 1000m. The mineralized zone is open in all directions. The Company has retained Micon International to complete an inaugural NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate (MRE), which is targeted to be completed by late August 2023.

On July 26, 2023, the Company reported major advances in metallurgy at Iska Iska. Preliminary tests at TOMRA in Germany indicate the mineralization at Iska Iska is amenable to "ore-sorting" with removal of at least 40% of the waste in the Polymetallic Domain and up to 80% in the Tin Domain, which would substantially increase concentrator feed grades as well as reduce future operating costs and significantly lower the cut off grades (COG) for the pending mineral resource estimate (MRE). Positive "ore-sorting" results were obtained from composite samples of both the tin (Sn) and polymetallic (Ag-Zn-Pb) mineralization domains in the Santa Barbara deposit indicating its wide applicability throughout the entire deposit. Further metallurgical studies conducted by Wardell Armstrong International on a composite sample of the tin mineralization has improved tin concentrator recovery to 50%. This recovery is un-optimised and has been achieved using a mixture of Multi Gravity and tin flotation techniques which are specifically designed to recover the finer grained cassiterite. The concentrator could produce an approximately 5%Sn concentrate grade amenable to the tin fuming process that ultimately could produce a 60-70%Sn concentrate for smelting. The level of metallurgical and pyrometallurgical work that has been conducted is exceptionally high for an inaugural MRE but is justifiable due to the significance of this large potentially open pittable tin and polymetallic resource. For this reason, and in consultation with Eloro's independent consultants, Micon International, completion of the inaugural MRE was deferred until these tests were completed and the results could be fully incorporated into the final MRE. The additional metallurgical/mineralogical knowledge will enable Eloro to rapidly move towards a preliminary economic assessment (PEA).

The Company completed 16 diamond drill holes totalling 12,495.4m in the first half of 2023 to test targets in the Casiterita area (8 hole totalling 5,726.8m), Porco-Mina 2 area (3 holes totalling 2,544.9m) and eastern-southern extension of Santa Barbara (5 holes totalling 4,223.7m). Results from these holes, some of which are still pending, will be released following closure of the financing. Magnetic data strongly suggest that a large intrusive body lies below the Iska Iska Caldera Complex and that it may be nearer to surface on the Casiterita property. This intrusive is approximately 5km long by 3km wide. Induced Polarization/Resistivity surveys at Casiterita outlined a new chargeability anomaly that extends for approximately 1km along strike and is across all five lines surveyed. It is readily evident that the strong conductivity anomaly outlined on Iska Iska continues southwards onto Casiterita, reflecting the enormous potential size of the mineralizing system of the underlying intrusive.

The planned next phase of work at Iska Iska will begin following completion of the inaugural MRE. The work plan consists of 5,600m of definition drilling at Santa Barbara to better define higher grade areas in the shallower parts of the potential pit to enhance earlier payback; drilling of four PQ metallurgical holes totaling 1,250m for further metallurgical tests including "ore-sorting"; and preparation of a PEA, including required site work, on the Santa Barbara deposit. Allowances have also been included for ESG and community support programs, a gravity survey over Iska Iska to test for the deeper tin porphyry and for exploration including geophysical surveys on the outside properties.

TOTAL: 5,392,070

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering as follows:

Dr. William (Bill) Pearson, P. Geo, Executive Vice President Exploration of the Company, and a qualified person within the meaning of NI 43-101, has recommended the exploration program to be undertaken and has reviewed and approved all technical disclosures in this Prospectus Supplement and the documents incorporate by reference herein.

The above table does not take into account the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full for Additional Units, the Company will receive approximately $6,238,381 in net proceeds, after deducting the Underwriting Commission of approximately $414,152 in connection therewith and the estimated expenses of the Offering of $250,000. The Company intends to use the estimated additional net proceeds from the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option for an additional option payment and exploration and development work on the Iska Iska Project.

The use of the net proceeds of the Offering by the Company described above is consistent with the accomplishment of the Company's stated business objective of focusing its exploration efforts on the exploration and development of its Iska Iska Project. While the Company believes that it has the skills and resources necessary to accomplish its stated business objectives, participation in the exploration for and development of mineral properties has a number of inherent risks. See the risk factors described under the "Risk Factors" section of the Prospectus, this Prospectus Supplement and the Company's AIF for factors that may impact the timing and success of the Company's exploration programs in connection with its properties.

Pending expenditure, the Company intends to invest the proceeds of the Offering in short-term investments with high credit quality Canadian financial institutions. The Company currently intends to spend the funds available as stated in this Prospectus Supplement. However, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be deemed prudent or necessary. The actual amount that the Company spends in connection with each of the intended uses of proceeds will depend on a number of factors, including those referred to under the "Risk Factors" section of the Prospectus, this Prospectus Supplement and the Company's AIF.

The Company generates no operating revenue from the exploration activities on its property interests and has negative cash flow from operating activities. The Company anticipates that it will continue to have negative cash flow until such time that commercial production is achieved at a particular project. To the extent that the Company has negative operating cash flows in future periods in excess of amounts disclosed above in the Use of Proceeds table, it may need to deploy a portion of its existing working capital to fund such negative cash flow. See "Risk Factors – Negative Operating Cash Flows and Potential Need for Additional Financing".

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES BEING DISTRIBUTED

The authorized share capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value and an unlimited number of special shares ("Special Shares") without par value.

Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of all meetings of shareholders and to attend and vote the Common Shares at the meetings, except meetings at which only holders of a specified class of shares are entitled to vote, and holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to one vote for each Common Share held and, subject to the rights privilege restrictions and conditions attaching to any other class of shares of the Company, to receive the remaining property of the Company upon dissolution. The Common Shares carry no pre-emptive or conversion rights.

Warrants

The Warrants issued under the Offering will be governed by a warrant indenture (the "Warrant Indenture") to be entered into on the Closing Date between the Company and TSX Trust Company, as agent for the holders of the Warrants (the "Warrant Agent"). The following is a summary of the principal attributes of the Warrants and certain anticipated provisions of the Warrant Indenture mentioned herein. The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the detailed provisions of the Warrant Indenture. A copy of the Warrant Indenture may be obtained on request from the Company and will be available electronically at www.sedarplus.ca and reference should be made to the Warrant Indenture for the full text of the attributes of the Warrants. Each whole Warrant entitles its holder, subject to adjustments in certain circumstances, upon the payment of the exercise price of $4.25, to purchase one Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date. See "Plan of Distribution".

The Warrants will be governed by the Warrant Indenture. The Company will designate the Warrant Agent as agent for the Warrants. Prior to the closing of the Offering, the Company may name any other agent with respect to the Warrants. The Warrant Indenture will provide for adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and/or the exercise price per Warrant Share upon the occurrence of certain events, including:

  • a) the issuance of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution (other than a dividend paid in the ordinary course or a distribution of Common Shares upon the exercise of any outstanding warrants or options);
  • b) the subdivision, redivision or change of the Common Shares into a greater number of shares;
  • c) the consolidation, reduction or combination of the Common Shares into a lesser number of shares;
  • d) the issuance to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares of rights, options or warrants under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, at a price per Common Share to the holder (or at an exchange or conversion price per share) of less than 95% of the "current market price", as defined in the Warrant Indenture, of Common Shares on such record date; and
  • e) the issuance or distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares of securities, including rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of any class or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, any cash, property or assets, or any evidences of indebtedness.

The Warrant Indenture will also provide for adjustment in the class and/or number of securities or other property issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and/or the exercise price per security upon the occurrence of certain fundamental transactions, including:

  • a) the reclassification of the Common Shares;
  • b) the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation;
  • c) a tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person), where shareholders who tender shares representing more than 50% of the voting power of the Common Shares and the Company or such other person, as applicable, accepts such tender for payment;
  • d) a share purchase agreement or other business combination by the Company (including a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or plan of arrangement) with another person whereby such other person acquires more than the 50% of the voting power of the Common Shares; or
  • e) the sale by the Company to another person of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions.

No adjustment in the exercise price or number of Warrant Shares will be required to be made unless the cumulative effect of such adjustment or adjustments would result in a change of at least 1% in the exercise price or a change in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise by at least one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a Common Share, as the case may be.

The Company will covenant in the Warrant Indenture that, during the period in which the Warrants are exercisable, the Company will give notice to Warrant holders of certain stated events, including events that would result in an adjustment to the exercise price for the Warrants or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, at least 10 business days prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of such event.

No fraction of a Warrant Share will be issued upon the exercise of a Warrant and no cash payment will be made in lieu thereof. Warrant holders are not entitled to any voting rights or pre-emptive rights or any other rights conferred upon a person as a result of being a holder of Common Shares.

From time to time, the Company and the Warrant Agent, without the consent of the holders of Warrants, may amend or supplement the Warrant Indenture for certain purposes, including curing defects or inconsistencies or making any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of Warrants. Any amendment or supplement to the Warrant Indenture that adversely affects the interests of the holders of the Warrants may only be made by "extraordinary resolution", which will be defined in the Warrant Indenture as a resolution either (1) passed at a meeting of the holders of Warrants at which there are present in person or represented by proxy at least two holders of Warrants representing at least 25% of the aggregate number of the then outstanding Warrants and passed by the affirmative vote of holders of Warrants representing not less than 66⅔% of the aggregate number of all the then outstanding Warrants represented at the meeting and voted on the poll for such resolution, or (2) adopted by an instrument in writing signed by the holders of not less than 66⅔% of the aggregate number of all then outstanding Warrants.

The Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, and the Warrants will not be exercisable by or on behalf of a person in the United States or a U.S. Person, unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Warrants will bear a legend stating such. Certificates representing the Warrant Shares will not be registered or delivered to an address in the United States, unless an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws is available and the Company has received an opinion of counsel of recognized standing or other evidence to such effect in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. At the time of exercise of the Warrants, the holder of the Warrant will be required to provide certification pursuant to the terms of the Warrants that the holder is not a U.S. person and the Warrant is not being exercised on behalf of a U.S. person, or provide the required opinion of counsel. A holder who is a "Qualified Institutional Buyer" or an "accredited investor" (as defined in Rule 501 under the U.S. Securities Act) at the time of exercise of the Warrants who purchased Units in the Offering to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or U.S. Persons will not be required to deliver an opinion of counsel or such other evidence in connection with the exercise of Warrants that are a part of those Units.

CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is, as of the date hereof, a general summary of certain of the Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") and the regulations thereunder (the "Regulations") generally applicable to an investor who acquires Units pursuant to the Offering. For purposes of this summary, references to a "Share" include a Unit Share and a Warrant Share unless otherwise indicated. This summary applies only to a purchaser who is a beneficial owner of Shares and Warrants acquired pursuant to the Offering and who, for the purposes of the Tax Act, and at all relevant times: (i) deals at arm's length with the Company and the Underwriters, (ii) is not affiliated with the Company or the Underwriters; and (iii) acquires and holds the Unit Shares, Warrants and any Warrant Shares acquired on the exercise of the Warrants as capital property (a "Holder").

Shares and Warrants will generally be considered to be capital property to a Holder unless they are held in the course of carrying on a business of trading or dealing in securities or were acquired in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.

This summary does not apply to a Holder (i) that is a "specified financial institution" as defined in the Tax Act; (ii) that is a "financial institution" within the meaning of the "mark-to-market" rules in the Tax Act; (iii) an interest in which constitutes, or for whom a Share or Warrant would be, a "tax shelter investment" within the meaning of the Tax Act; (iv) whose "functional currency" for the purposes of the Tax Act is a currency of a country other than Canada; (v) that is exempt from tax under Part I of the Tax Act; (vi) that has entered into or will enter into a "synthetic disposition arrangement" or a "derivative forward agreement" (as those terms are defined in the Tax Act) in respect of Shares or Warrants; or (vii) that receives dividends on Shares under or as part of a "dividend rental arrangement" (as defined in the Tax Act). This summary does not address the deductibility of interest by a Holder who has borrowed money to acquire Units. Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors.

Additional considerations, not discussed herein, may apply to a Holder that is a corporation resident in Canada, and is or becomes (or does not deal at arm's length for purposes of the Tax Act with a corporation resident in Canada that is or becomes), as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events that includes the acquisition of the Units or Warrant Shares, controlled by a non-resident person or a group of persons comprised of any combination of non-resident corporations, non-resident individuals or non-resident trusts that do not deal with each other at arm's length for purposes of the "foreign affiliate dumping" rules in section 212.3 of the Tax Act. Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the consequences of purchasing Units pursuant to the Offering.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the Regulations in force as of the date of this Prospectus Supplement, all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act or the Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date of this Prospectus Supplement (the "Tax Proposals") and counsel's understanding of the current administrative practices and assessing policies of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA") publicly available prior to the date hereof. This summary assumes that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Tax Proposals will be enacted as proposed or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations and, except for the Tax Proposals, does not take into account or anticipate any changes in the law or in the administrative practices or assessing policies of CRA, whether by legislative, governmental, administrative or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account or consider other federal or any provincial, territorial or foreign tax considerations, which may differ significantly from the Canadian federal income tax considerations discussed in this summary.

This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to an investment in Units. The following description of income tax matters is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or income tax advice to any particular Holder. Holders are urged to consult their own income tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences applicable to them based on their own particular circumstances.

Allocation of Offering Price

A Holder who acquires Units pursuant to the Offering will be required to allocate the purchase price paid for each Unit on a reasonable basis between the Unit Share and the one-half of one Warrant comprising each Unit in order to determine their respective costs to such Holder for the purposes of the Tax Act.

For its purposes, the Company has advised counsel that, of the $3.15 Offering Price for each Unit, it intends to allocate $2.91143 to each Unit Share and $0.23857 to each one-half of one Warrant and believes that such allocation is reasonable. The Company's allocation, however, is not binding on the CRA or on a Holder and the CRA may not be in agreement with such allocation. Counsel express no opinion with respect to such allocation.

The adjusted cost base to a Holder of each Unit Share (comprising a part of a Unit acquired pursuant to the Offering) will be determined by averaging the cost of such Unit Share with the adjusted cost base to such Holder of all other Common Shares (if any) held by the Holder as capital property immediately prior to the acquisition.

Exercise of Warrants

No gain or loss will be realized by a Holder of a Warrant upon the exercise of such Warrant to acquire a Warrant Share. When a Warrant is exercised, the Holder's cost of the Warrant Share acquired thereby will be equal to the adjusted cost base of the Warrant to such Holder, plus the amount paid on the exercise of the Warrant. For the purpose of computing the adjusted cost base to a Holder of each Warrant Share acquired on the exercise of a Warrant, the cost of such Warrant Share must be averaged with the adjusted cost base to such Holder of all other Common Shares (if any) held by the Holder as capital property immediately prior to the exercise of the Warrant.

Holders Resident in Canada

The following portion of this summary applies to a Holder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act, is or is deemed to be resident in Canada at all relevant times (a "Resident Holder"). A Resident Holder whose Shares might not otherwise qualify as capital property may be entitled to make an irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to deem the Shares, and every other "Canadian security" (as defined in the Tax Act), held by such person, in the taxation year of the election and each subsequent taxation year to be capital property. This election does not apply to Warrants. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding this election.

Expiry of Warrants

In the event of the expiry of an unexercised Warrant, a Holder generally will realize a capital loss equal to the Holder's adjusted cost base of such Warrant. The tax treatment of capital gains and capital losses is discussed in greater detail below under the subheading "Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

Dividends

Dividends received or deemed to be received by a Resident Holder on Shares will be included in computing the Resident Holder's income for the purposes of the Tax Act.

In the case of a Resident Holder that is an individual (other than certain trusts), such dividends will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules applicable to taxable dividends received from "taxable Canadian corporations" (as defined in the Tax Act). Taxable dividends received from a taxable Canadian corporation which are designated by such corporation as "eligible dividends" in accordance with the Tax Act will be subject to an enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit regime in accordance with the rules in the Tax Act. There may be limitations on the ability of the Company to designate dividends as eligible dividends.

A Resident Holder that is a corporation will be required to include such dividends in computing its income and generally will be entitled to deduct the amount of such dividends in computing its taxable income for the taxation year. In certain circumstances, subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act will treat a taxable dividend received (or deemed to be received) by a Resident Holder that is a corporation as a capital gain or proceeds of disposition, to the extent and under the circumstances specified in the Tax Act. Such Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.

A Resident Holder that is a "private corporation" (within the meaning of the Tax Act) or "subject corporation" (within the meaning of Part IV of the Tax Act) may be liable under Part IV of the Tax Act to pay an additional tax (refundable under certain circumstances) on dividends received or deemed to be received on the Shares to the extent such dividends are deductible in computing the Resident Holder's taxable income.

Disposition of Shares and Warrants

A disposition or deemed disposition of Shares (other than on a disposition to the Company that is not a sale in the open market in the manner in which shares would normally be purchased by any member of the public in an open market) or Warrants (other than on the exercise of a Warrant) by a Resident Holder will generally result in the Resident Holder realizing a capital gain (or capital loss) in the taxation year of the disposition to the extent that the Resident Holder's proceeds of disposition for such Shares or Warrants, as the case may be, exceed (or are less than) the aggregate of the Resident Holder's adjusted cost base thereof and any reasonable costs related to the disposition. See "Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below.

Capital Gains and Capital Losses

A Resident Holder will generally be required to include one-half of any capital gain (a "taxable capital gain") in computing its income for the taxation year of disposition or deemed disposition. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, a Resident Holder will be required to deduct one-half of the amount of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized in a taxation year against taxable capital gains realized in such year. Allowable capital losses in excess of taxable capital gains in the taxation year in which they are realized may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against taxable capital gains realized in such years, to the extent and under the circumstances specified in the Tax Act.

The amount of any capital loss realized on the disposition or deemed disposition of a Share by a Resident Holder that is a corporation may, in certain circumstances, be reduced by the amount of dividends received or deemed to have been received by it on such share, or a share substituted for such share to the extent and in the circumstances specified by the Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where a Resident Holder that is a corporation is a member of a partnership or is a beneficiary of a trust that owns Shares or where a partnership or trust, of which the corporate Resident Holder is a member or a beneficiary, is a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust that owns Shares. Resident Holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own income tax advisors.

A Resident Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" for purposes of the Tax Act or that is or is deemed to be at any time in the relevant taxation year a "substantive CCPC" (as defined in the legislative proposals released by the Department of Finance on August 9, 2022) may be liable to pay an additional tax (refundable under certain circumstances) on its "aggregate investment income" for the year, which will generally include taxable capital gains.

Alternative Minimum Tax

Generally, a Resident Holder that is an individual (other than certain trusts) that receives or is deemed to have received taxable dividends on the Shares or realizes a capital gain on the disposition or deemed disposition of the Shares or Warrants may be liable for alternative minimum tax under the Tax Act. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of alternative minimum tax.

Holders Not Resident in Canada

The following portion of this summary is generally applicable to Holders who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times: (i) are not resident or deemed to be resident in Canada, and (ii) do not use or hold Shares or Warrants in the course of a business carried on or deemed to be carried on in Canada ("Non-Resident Holders"). Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a Non-Resident Holder that is an insurer carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere or that is an "authorized foreign bank" (as defined in the Tax Act). Such Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors.

Dividends

Dividends paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited to a Non-Resident Holder on the Shares will generally be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25% on the gross amount of the dividend, unless such rate is reduced by the terms of an applicable income tax treaty or convention. Under the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the "Treaty"), the rate of withholding tax on dividends paid or credited to a Non-Resident Holder who is resident in the U.S. for purposes of the Treaty, is the beneficial owner of the dividends, and is fully entitled to benefits under the Treaty (a "U.S. Holder") is generally reduced to 15% of the gross amount of the dividend. The rate of withholding tax is further reduced to 5% if the beneficial owner of such dividend is a U.S. Holder that is a company

that owns, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company. Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the Treaty or any other tax treaty.

Disposition of Shares and Warrants

A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of a Share or Warrant, nor will capital losses arising therefrom be recognized under the Tax Act, unless such security, as the case may be, constitutes "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Tax Act) of the Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition and the Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax treaty or convention between Canada and the country in which the Non-Resident Holder is resident.

Provided the Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange", as defined in the Tax Act (which currently includes the TSX), at the time of disposition, the Shares and Warrants generally will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder at that time, unless at any time during the 60 month period immediately preceding the disposition the following two conditions are met concurrently: (i) one or any combination of (a) the Non-Resident Holder, (b) persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal at arm's length, and (c) partnerships in which the Non-Resident Holder or a person described in (b) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares of the Company; and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of such shares was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of (a) real or immovable property situated in Canada, (b) "Canadian resource property" (as defined in the Tax Act), (c) "timber resource property" (as defined in the Tax Act), or (d) an option in respect of, an interest in, or for civil law rights in, property described in any of (a) through (c), whether or not such property exists.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shares and Warrants may also be deemed to be taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder for purposes of the Tax Act in certain other circumstances. Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors as to whether their Shares or Warrants constitute "taxable Canadian property" in their own particular circumstances.

A Non-Resident Holder's capital gain (or capital loss) in respect of a disposition of Shares or Warrants that constitute or are deemed to constitute taxable Canadian property to the Non-Resident Holder (and are not "treaty-protected property" as defined in the Tax Act) will generally be computed in the manner described above under the subheading "Holders Resident in Canada — Disposition of Shares and Warrants" and "Capital Gains and Capital Losses" as though the Non-Resident Holder were a Resident Holder. Non-Resident Holders whose Shares or Warrants are taxable Canadian property should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax and compliance considerations that may be relevant to them.

THE FOREGOING SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF ALL TAX CONSEQUENCES THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO PARTICULAR HOLDERS OF UNITS AND IS NOT TAX OR LEGAL ADVICE. HOLDERS OF UNITS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF UNITS.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Under the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to sell, and the Underwriters severally (and not jointly, nor jointly and severally) have agreed to purchase, on the Closing Date 1,905,461 Units at the Offering Price, payable in cash to the Company, against delivery of the Units, subject to compliance with all necessary legal requirements and to the conditions contained in the Underwriting Agreement.

The obligations of the Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement may be terminated at its discretion upon the occurrence of certain stated events as set out in the Underwriting Agreement, including on the basis of a "disaster out", "regulatory out" and "material adverse change out" and upon the occurrence of certain other stated events. The Underwriters are, however, obligated to take up and pay for all of the Units (other than the Additional Units) if any of the Units are purchased under the Underwriting Agreement.

The Offering Price was determined by arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Underwriters, with reference to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares.

The Company has granted to the Underwriters the Over-Allotment Option, exercisable in whole or in part in the sole discretion of the Underwriters at any time until the date which is 30 days following the Closing Date, to purchase, or find substitute purchasers for, up to an additional 285,819 Additional Units at a price of $3.15 per Additional Unit, with each Additional Unit being comprised of one Additional Unit Share and one-half of one Additional Warrant. Each Additional Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, one Additional Warrant Share at an exercise price of $4.25 for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full for Additional Securities, the total "Price to the Public", the "Underwriting Commission" and the "Net Proceeds to the Company" (before deducting expenses of the Offering) will be $6,902,532, $414,152 and $6,488,381, respectively. This Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus also qualify the grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the distribution of the Additional Securities.

The Units sold by the Underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the Offering Price. After the Underwriters have made a reasonable effort to sell all of the Units at the Offering Price specified on the cover page, the Underwriters may change the Offering Price to an amount not greater than the Offering Price set forth on the cover page, and the compensation realized by the Underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by the purchasers for the Units is less than the gross proceeds paid by the Underwriters to the Company. The Underwriters may decrease the price at which the Units are distributed from the Offering Price. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters are obligated to purchase the Units at the price and upon the terms stated therein and, as a result, bear any risk associated with changing the Offering Price or other selling terms.

Subscriptions for the Units will be received subject to rejection or allotment in whole or in part and the right is reserved to close the subscription books at any time without notice. Except in limited circumstances, the Units will be delivered electronically through the NCI system of CDS. On the Closing Date, the Company, via its registrar and transfer agent, will electronically deliver the Units registered to CDS or its nominee. Transfers of ownership of Common Shares must be effected through a CDS Participant, which includes securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies. All rights of shareholders who hold securities in CDS must be exercised through, and all payments or other property to which such shareholders are entitled, will be made or delivered by CDS or the CDS Participant through which the shareholder holds such securities. A holder of Units participating in the NCI system will not be entitled to a certificate or other instrument from the Company or the Company's registrar and transfer agent evidencing that person's interest in or ownership of securities, nor, to the extent applicable, will such holder be shown on the records maintained by CDS, except through an agent who is a CDS Participant. The ability of a beneficial owner of securities to pledge such securities or otherwise take action with respect to such owner's interest in such securities (other than through a CDS Participant) may be limited due to the lack of a physical certificate.

The Offering is being made concurrently in each of the provinces of Canada, excluding Québec. The Units will be offered in Canada through the Underwriters either directly or through their agents, as applicable. Offers and sales of Units outside of Canada will be made in accordance with applicable laws in such jurisdictions and the Underwriting Agreement.

The Company has applied to list the Unit Shares, Warrant Shares, Additional Unit Shares and Additional Warrant Shares on the TSX. The TSX has not conditionally approved the Company's listing application and there is no assurance the TSX will approve the listing application. Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX.

The Company has not applied and does not intend to apply to list the Warrants on the TSX or any other securities exchange. There is no market through which the Warrants may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell Warrants purchased under this Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of the Warrants in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Warrants and the extent of issuer regulation.

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to (a) pay to the Underwriters the Underwriting Commission, being a cash commission equal to 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the issue and sale of the Units (including any Additional Securities issued and sold pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option), (b) issue to the Underwriters Compensation Options to purchase a number of Units equal to 6% of the aggregate number of Units issued by the Company under the Offering (including any Additional Units issued and sold pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option) exercisable for Common Shares of the Company at the Offering Price for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date and (c) pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Underwriters in connection with the Offering. Other than the Underwriting Commission, the Underwriters will not receive any other fee or commission from the Company in connection with the Offering.

The Company has agreed in the Underwriting Agreement that the Company will not, directly or indirectly, sell offer to sell, issue, grant any option, warrant or other right for the sale or issuance of, or otherwise lend, transfer, assign or dispose of (including without limitation by making any short sale, engaging in any hedging, monetization or derivative transaction or entering into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of securities of the Company, or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise exercisable into securities of the Company, whether or not cash settled), in a public offering or by way of private placement or otherwise, any securities of the Company, or agree to do any of the foregoing or publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing until the date which is 90 days after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Underwriters, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except in conjunction with: (i) the Underwriting Agreement, or (ii) the conversion or exercise or vesting of options and DSUs, in each case pursuant to the equity incentive plans of the Company and other stock-based compensation arrangements including, for greater certainty the sale of any Common Shares issued thereunder; or (iii) pursuant to the exercise or settlement of options or other equity-based awards (including restricted share units ("RSUs") and DSUs) pursuant to any stock compensation plan in effect as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement and which is disclosed in the Prospectus Supplement or any document incorporated by reference therein; or (iv) the issuance of Common Shares upon the exercise or conversion of any options or warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement, or (v) obligations in respect of existing agreements.

The Company also agreed in the Underwriting Agreement that the Company will cause each of its directors and officers to enter into lock-up agreements in a form satisfactory to the Company and the Underwriters, in both cases acting reasonably, which shall be negotiated in good faith and contain customary provisions, pursuant to which each such person agrees, among other things, to not, for a period of 90 days from the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, or otherwise dispose of, or transfer, or announce any intention to do so, any securities of the Company, whether now owned, or acquired after the of this Prospectus Supplement, owned, directly or indirectly, or under their control or direction, or with respect to which each has beneficial ownership, or enter into any transaction or arrangement that has the effect of transferring, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any securities of the Company, whether such transaction is settled by the delivery of Common Shares, other securities, cash or otherwise, subject to customary exceptions, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters.

The Underwriting Agreement also provides that the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for certain expenses incurred in connection with the Offering and will indemnify the Underwriters and each of their affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents from and against certain liabilities and expenses and will contribute to payments that the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

Pursuant to rules and policy statements of certain Canadian securities regulators, the Underwriters may not, at any time during the period ending on the date the selling process for the Units ends, bid for or purchase Common Shares. The foregoing restrictions are subject to certain exceptions including: (i) a bid for or purchase of Common Shares permitted under the Universal Market Integrity Rules for Canadian Marketplaces administered by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada relating to market stabilization and passive market making activities; (ii) a bid or purchase made for or on behalf of a client, other than certain prescribed clients, provided that the client's order was not solicited by the Underwriters during the period of distribution, provided that the bid or purchase was for the purpose of maintaining a fair and orderly market and not engaged in for the purpose of creating actual or apparent active trading in, or raising the price of, such securities; and (iii) a bid or purchase to cover a short position entered into prior to the commencement of the prescribed restricted period. Consistent with these requirements, and in connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the Underwriters at any time. The Underwriters may carry out these transactions on the TSX, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

STATUTORY AND CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS OF WITHDRAWAL AND RESCISSION

Securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada provides purchasers with the right to withdraw from an agreement to purchase securities. This right may be exercised within two business days after receipt or deemed receipt of a prospectus or a prospectus supplement relating to the securities purchased by a purchaser and any amendments thereto. In several of the provinces, the securities legislation further provides a purchaser with remedies for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, revision of the price or damages if the prospectus or a prospectus supplement relating to the securities purchased by a purchaser and any amendments thereto contain a misrepresentation or is not delivered to the purchaser, provided that the remedies for recession, revision of the price or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser's province. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's province for the particulars of these rights or consult with a legal adviser.

In an offering of Units, investors are cautioned that the statutory right of action for damages for a misrepresentation contained in this Prospectus Supplement is limited, in certain provincial securities legislation, to the Offering Price. This means that, under the securities legislation of certain provinces, if the purchaser pays additional amounts upon exercise of the Warrants, those amounts may not be recoverable under the statutory right of action for damages that applies in those provinces. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's province for the particulars of this right of action for damages or consult with a legal adviser.

Under the Warrant Indenture, original Canadian purchasers of Warrants pursuant to the Offering will have a contractual right of rescission against the Company following the issuance of Common Shares to such original purchasers upon the exercise of such Warrants. The contractual right of rescission will entitle such original purchasers to receive the amount paid for the Warrants and the amount paid upon exercise thereof upon surrender of the Common Shares gained thereby, in the event that this Prospectus Supplement or an amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation, provided that: (i) the exercise takes place within 180 days of the date of the purchase of the Warrants under this Prospectus Supplement; and (ii) the right of rescission is exercised within 180 days of the date of the purchase of the Warrants under this Prospectus Supplement. This contractual right of rescission will be consistent with the statutory right of rescission described under section 130 of the Securities Act (Ontario), and is in addition to any other right or remedy available to original purchasers under section 130 of the Securities Act (Ontario) or otherwise at law.

ELIGIBILITY FOR INVESTMENT

In the opinion of Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, counsel to the Company, and McMillan LLP, counsel to the Underwriters, based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the Regulations in force as of the date hereof, the Unit Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares, if issued on the date hereof, would be qualified investments under the Tax Act and the Regulations for a trust governed by a registered retirement savings plan, a registered retirement income fund, a registered education savings plan, a registered disability savings plan, a first home savings account, a tax-free savings account (collectively referred to as the "Plans") or a deferred profit sharing plan (a "DPSP"), each as defined in the Tax Act, provided that:

  • (i) in the case of the Unit Shares and the Warrant Shares, the Unit Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, are listed on a "designated stock exchange" as defined in the Tax Act (which currently includes the TSX) or the Company qualifies as a "public corporation" other than a "mortgage investment corporation" (each as defined in the Tax Act); and
  • (ii) in the case of Warrants, the Warrant Shares are qualified investments as described in (i) above and neither the Company, nor any person with whom the Company does not deal at arm's length for the

purposes of the Tax Act, is an annuitant, a beneficiary, an employer or a subscriber under, or a holder of, the particular Plan or DPSP.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holder or subscriber of, or annuitant under, a Plan, as the case may be, (the "Controlling Individual") will be subject to a penalty tax in respect of Unit Shares, Warrants or Warrant Shares held in the Plan if such securities are a "prohibited investment" (as defined in subsection 207.01(1) of the Tax Act) for the particular Plan. A Unit Share, Warrant or Warrant Share will generally be a prohibited investment for a Plan if the Controlling Individual does not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Tax Act) with the Company or has a "significant interest" (as defined in subsection 207.01(4) of the Tax Act) in the Company. However, the Unit Shares and Warrant Shares will generally not be a "prohibited investment" if such shares are "excluded property" (as defined in subsection 207.01(1) of the Tax Act) for the Plan. Prospective investors to whom these rules may apply should consult their own tax advisors having regard to their particular circumstances.
