Material Changes and Agreements
- Warrant Structure: The private placement includes Pre-Funded Warrants exercisable at $0.00001 and Common Warrants with a five-year term exercisable at $0.24. Both are subject to anti-dilution protections and a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation on exercise.

Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
- Stockholder Approval Requirement: The exercise of the Facility Warrant and the filing of the associated resale registration statement are contingent upon obtaining stockholder approval.
- Ownership Limitations: Purchasers in the private placement cannot exercise warrants if doing so would result in beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the company's outstanding capital stock.
- Regulatory Compliance: The issuance of securities in the private placement and the debt settlement were conducted under exemptions from registration (Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933) and required approval from the TSX Venture Exchange for the Plantify transaction.
