expiring on September 11, 2023 in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Company intends to use the proceeds raised from the Offering for exploration of the Company's
projects in the Athabasca Basin. Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian
exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act and "flow through mining
expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act. Such proceeds will be renounced
to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2023, in the aggregate amount of
not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.
In connection with the first tranche of the Offering, the Company paid total cash commissions of
C$260,480.84 and issued 547,669 compensation warrants (each, a "
Compensation Warrant
"). Each
Compensation Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at a
price of C$0.48 at any time on or before May 11, 2025.
