This Notice is pursuant to an option agreement signed between Harfang and LIFT dated July 20, 2022 (the

Harfang an aggregate of $100,000 over a three -year period and incurring $1,650,000 in exploration
expenditures over the same three-year period. LIFT has elected to accept the grant of the second option to
acquire an additional 19% interest, for an aggregate 70% interest. According to the Agreement LIFT may
exercise the second option by:
§ paying Harfang an additional $50,000 in cash and/or common shares, at LIFT’s discretion
§ incurring an additional $3,350,000 in exploration expenditures prior to the third anniversary of the
exercise of the first option
Rick Breger, President and CEO of Harfang, said, “We are pleased that LIFT has elected to proceed with the
second option and will continue to move Pontax forward. To date, Francis and the entire LIFT team have been
great partners and we look forward to continuing the success. At Pontax, LIFT has done an exceptional job of
defining a 25 km by 10 km area of high spodumene grain counts in glacial sediments, highlighting the strong
potential of the project.”
