The principal balance of each Note will be payable on August 8, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”), provided that the Company shall have the right to redeem and repay the Notes at any time prior the Maturity Date, in whole or in part, without notice, bonus or penalty. The Notes bear simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum, with interest payable on the Maturity Date. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Notes to complete the purchase of the refining unit ($2,100,000) (as disclosed in the Company’s press release dated July 31, 2025) and for general working capital purposes ($1,430,000) or for such other purposes as the Company may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion.

In connection with the Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,004,255 common shares in the capital of the Company (the “Bonus Shares”) to Pathfinder and Mr. Wylie. The Bonus Shares represent a value equal to 20% of the principal amount of the Notes, calculated at a price of $0.235 per Bonus Share which was the closing price of the Company's common shares on July 31, 2025 prior to the announcement of the Offering.
