SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
What is our business?
Q2 Metals is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the Cisco Lithium Project located within the greater Nemaska traditional territory of the Eeyou Istchee, James Bay, Quebec, Canada (the "Cisco Project"). The Cisco Project is comprised of 801 claims, totaling 41,253 hectares, with the main mineralized zone just 6.5 km from the Billy Diamond Highway, which transects the Cisco Project.
Neil McCallum, B.Sc., P.Geol., a registered permit holder with the Ordre des Géologues du Québec and Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 has reviewed and approved the technical information in this Offering Document. Mr. McCallum is a director and the Vice President Exploration for Q2 Metals.
Recent developments
Recent developments involving the Company's business include:
-
On June 10, 2025, the Company announced the final core assay results on holes CS-25-028 to CS-25-036 drilled at the Cisco Project as well as the engagement of BBA Inc. to complete an exploration target at the Cisco Project (the "Exploration Target").
-
On June 24, 2025, the Company announced that the 2025 summer drill program at the Cisco Project had commenced as well as the completion and visual results of hole CS-025-036. The Company also reported that it had paid $500,000 and issued 16,500,000 of the 20,000,000 Common Shares issuable in connection with acquisition of the Cisco Project, and paid $300,000 in connection with the Cisco Extension Claims.
-
On July 21, 2025, the Company announced its inaugural exploration target on the Exploration Target. Based on 40 holes drilled to date, the Exploration Target estimated a range of lithium mineralization at the Cisco Project from 215 million to 329 million tones ("Mt") at a grade ranging from 1.0% to 1.38% Li₂O. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate and define a mineral resource, as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"), and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. An exploration target is used to provide a conceptual estimate of the potential quantity and grade of a mineral deposit based on known and additional limited geological evidence. It is an early-stage assessment that will help to guide further exploration, but it is not a mineral resource or mineral reserve and should not be treated as such.

| Description of intended use of available funds listed in order of priority | Assuming 100% of the Offering | Assuming 100% Exercise of Agents’ Option(1) |
|---|---|---|
| Drilling of Exploration Target area | $19,000,000 | $24,000,000 |

| General corporate and working capital (expenses, payables and excess)(2) | $5,532,040 | $5,332,400 |
| Total: Equal to G in the available funds in the table above | $26,532,040 | $31,282,400 |
Notes:
(1) Assumes the Agents’ Option is exercised in full and the Concurrent Offering is fully subscribed.
(2) These figures represent the Company’s expected general and administrative expenses, the payment of current and expected short-term liabilities and payables over the coming 12-month period, and excess capital that will remain available to the Company for future use.
The above noted allocation of capital and anticipated timing represents the Company’s current intentions based upon its present plans and business condition, which could change in the future as its plans and business conditions evolve. Although the Company intends to expend the proceeds from the Offering and Concurrent 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. See the “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information” section above.
The Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements and unaudited consolidated interim financial statements included a going concern note. As the Company is in the exploration stage, the recoverability of amounts expended for exploration and evaluation of assets and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future cash flows and/or obtain additional financing to complete their development and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. The Offering and Concurrent Offering are intended to permit the Company to continue to explore its properties and conduct additional drilling as described above and is not expected to affect the decision to include a going concern note in the next annual financial statements of the Company.
