EXPLANATORY NOTE

On November 18, 2022, the Registrant filed a base shelf prospectus with each of the provincial and territorial securities regulators in Canada. When a final receipt is obtained from such securities regulators in Canada, the base shelf prospectus will qualify the distribution of an indeterminate amount of common shares, preferred shares, debt securities, warrants and subscription receipts of the Registrant, as well as units consisting of the aforementioned securities, in each of the provinces and territories of Canada in one or more transactions during the 25-month period that the base shelf prospectus, including any amendments thereto, remains effective. The base shelf prospectus does not qualify the sale of securities in the United States. The Registrant has no current intention of offering or selling securities but should in the future the Registrant consider offering or selling securities, the base shelf prospectus will provide access to the capital markets in Canada.

This Form 6-K is not an offer of securities for sale in the United States or any other jurisdiction. Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. Any offering of securities in the United States would be made by means of a registration statement that has become effective under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 or an offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933.
