Since Mr. Rahimtoola is an Insider (as such term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) of the Company, pursuant to the policies of the TSXV, any Unsecured Notes exceeding 25% of the total proceeds of the Offering were issued to Mr. Rahimtoola at the higher of (i) the Market Price (as such term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) of the Common Shares as of market close on August 15, 2023, being CAD$0.55; or the (i) the Conversion Price of CAD$1.00.

The Secured Notes were issued to eligible purchasers including Pathfinder Asset Management Ltd. (the "Lead Investor") and are secured against all personal property and assets of the Company, as more particularly described in the security agreement between the Company and the Lead Investor, acting as collateral agent for the benefit of itself and for the other secured note holders. The Company may, at any time, prepay all or a part of the principal amount of the Secured Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest without penalty or bonus. The Secured Notes will rank junior and be subordinate to all senior indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, specifically to all current and future obligations of AppScience, Inc. a subsidiary of the Company to Avidbank. The Unsecured Notes issued under the Offering will rank junior and subordinate to the Secured Notes.

The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes. The Notes and the underlying Common Shares will be subject to a four-month hold period after the date of their issuance as set out in National Instrument 45-102 – Resale of Securities.

The Company may close an addition tranche under the Offering in accordance with the prescribed timelines and policies of the TSXV. The closing of any additional tranches of the Offering is subject to the approval of the TSXV.

Such participation constitutes a "related party transaction" within Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The issuance to Mr. Ramhimtoola as an Insider is exempt from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemptions contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) as the fair market value of the consideration of the securities issued to the related parties did not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
