5.1 – Full Description of Material Change
On November 9, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement (the “ Letter Agreement ”) with Canaccord Genuity Corp. as lead underwriter and sole bookrunner, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (together, the “ Underwriters ”) pursuant to which the Underwriters agreed to purchase 22,250,000 Units on a “bought deal” basis pursuant to a short form prospectus offering, subject to all required regulatory approvals, at a price per Unit of $0.45 (the “ Issue Price ”) for gross proceeds of $10,012,500. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (each, a “ Common Share ”) and one warrant of the Company (each, a “ Warrant ”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.75 for a period ending five years from the closing of the Offering (as defined below).
Also on November 9, 2020, the Company agreed to amend the Letter Agreement to increase the size of the offering for gross proceeds of $12,600,000 (the “ Offering ”). Pursuant to the amended Letter Agreement, the Underwriters have agreed to purchase 28,000,000 Units at the Issue Price.
The Company has also granted the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the “ OverAllotment Option ”) to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units at the Issue Price, at any time on or prior to the date that is 30 days following the closing of the Offering. If this option is exercised in full, the Company will receive an additional $1,890,000 in gross proceeds for total aggregate gross proceeds of $14,490,000. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised for any combination of Units, Common Shares and/or Warrants.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to expand the Company's operating capacity and for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes.
In connection with the Offering, the Company has agreed to pay the Underwriters a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised from the Offering (including on any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option), and shall issue to the Underwriters that number of non-transferable compensation options equal to 6.0% of the Units sold under the Offering, including on any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option (the “ Compensation Options ”). Each Compensation Option will be exercisable at the Issue Price to acquire one Unit for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.
The closing date of the Offering is scheduled to be on or about November 26, 2020 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“ TSXV ”) and the applicable securities regulatory authorities.
