Item 4   Summary of Material Change
The Company announced that, further to its News Release of March 21, 2022, it has closed a first tranche (the “First Tranche”) of its private placement financing (the “Offering”), pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of 4,218,470 units (each, a “Unit”) at a price of $0.18 per Unit for gross proceeds of $759,324.60. The Company intends on completing a second tranche of the Offering within the next sixty (60) days.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional Share of the Company at a price of $0.40 per Share for a period of three years from closing of the First Tranche.
The Company did not pay any finder’s fees in connection with the closing of the First Tranche.
The aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of the Offering will be used for general working capital.
The securities issued under the First Tranche, and the shares that may be issuable on exercise of the Warrants, are subject to a statutory hold period expiring on September 5, 2022.
Andrew Schutte, one of the investors, participated in the First Tranche. Mr. Schutte’s participation constituted a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) but the issuance was exempt from the valuation requirement of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in section 5.5(b) as the Company’s shares are not listed on a specified market and from the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in section 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 in that the fair market value of the consideration of the Units issued to the related party does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

None of the securities sold in connection with the First Tranche will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no such securities may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
On May 6, 2022, the Company announced that the TSX Venture Exchange has granted a thirty (30) day extension to the Company for completion of the Offering.
