All Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced in favour of the subscribers of the FT Shares and QFT Shares effective December 31, 2024. The net proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used by the Company to fund exploration and development at the Company’s Troilus gold project, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Offered Securities will be offered by way of short form prospectus in each of the provinces of Canada, pursuant to National Instrument 44-101 – Short Form Prospectus Distributions. The Units may also be sold into the United States pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) and in such other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States as agreed, in each case in accordance with all applicable laws and provided that no prospectus, registration statement or similar document is required to be filed in such jurisdiction.

The Offering is scheduled to close on or about October 15, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”).

The securities offered in the Offering have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
