The Company intends to purchase up to 17,600,000 common shares of the Company (“Common Shares”) under the 2023 NCIB, representing approximately 4% of the Company’s 449,899,031 issued and outstanding Common Shares on November 15, 2023. Any shares purchased under the 2023 NCIB will be cancelled and returned to treasury. Purchases under the 2023 NCIB will be made through the facilities of the TSX and alternative trading systems in Canada. The NCIB enables the Company to repurchase its Common Shares for cancellation when the market price of its Common Shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company’s business and future prospects.

Any purchases under the 2023 NCIB will depend on future market conditions. The Company will determine the timing, amount and acceptable price of any such 2023 NCIB purchases, subject at all times to applicable TSX and other regulatory requirements. The period during which the Company is authorized to make purchases under the 2023 NCIB will commence on November 22, 2023 and will end 12 months thereafter on November 21, 2024 or such earlier date on which the maximum number of Common Shares are purchased under the 2023 NCIB or the 2023 NCIB is terminated at the Company’s election. There are no assurances that any shares will be purchased under the 2023 NCIB, as purchases will depend on market conditions satisfactory to the Company during the term of the 2023 NCIB.

Under TSX rules, no more than 19,595 Common Shares (being 25% of the average daily trading volume on the TSX of 78,381 Common Shares for the six months May 1 2023 to October 31 2023) can be purchased on the TSX on any single trading day under the 2023 NCIB, with the exception that one block purchase in excess of the daily maximum is permitted per calendar week.

The 2023 NCIB continues the share purchase program approved by the Board of Directors on November 18, 2022 (the “2022 NCIB”). Under the 2022 NCIB, the Company purchased 2,055,290 Common Shares for total consideration of approximately C$1.4 million at a volume weighted average price of C$0.69 per share through the facilities of the TSX and alternative trading systems in Canada. The Company was authorized to purchase 22,126,121 Common Shares under the 2022 NCIB.
