Haw Capital 2 Corp. has entered into a merger agreement dated Nov. 21, 2025, with a wholly owned subsidiary of Haw 2 (Subco) and Naked Revival Inc. (Naked), in furtherance of Haw 2's proposed business combination with Naked, as previously disclosed in the news release of Haw 2 dated Aug. 8, 2025. A copy of the merger agreement, a copy of the U.S. merger agreement (as defined below) and the news release of Haw 2 dated Aug. 8, 2025, have been filed on Haw 2's SEDAR+ profile and are available for viewing on SEDAR+.
It is expected that the transaction will constitute the qualifying transaction of Haw 2, as such term is defined in the CPC (capital pool company) policy, and that upon completion of the transaction, the resulting issuer (as defined below) will meet the Tier 2 -- industrial listing requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Haw 2 and Naked also intend to complete a proposed financing of up to a maximum of 14,097,744 subscription receipts by way of private placement by Naked or Haw2, as applicable, which, upon satisfaction of the escrow release conditions (as defined in the merger agreement) and completion of the merger (as defined below), will convert into a maximum of 27,273,496 resulting issuer common shares (as defined below), for aggregate gross proceeds to Naked or Haw 2, as applicable, of a maximum of $3-million, and on such other terms as determined by Naked and Haw 2 acting reasonably.
Haw 2 and Naked will provide further details in respect of the transaction and private placement in due course, and will make available all information and disclosure required pursuant to Section 11.2 of the CPC policy, including all financial information required by the TSX-V. In particular, Haw 2 and Naked are working diligently on a filing statement for the transaction in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V.

- Immediately prior to the effective time and concurrent with the automatic exchange of the subscription receipts into Naked common shares or Haw 2 common shares, as applicable, the simple agreements for future equity of Naked (the Naked SAFEs) will automatically be converted into Naked common shares in accordance with their terms (which, for clarity, conversion at a 20-per-cent discount representing 17.02 cents, to the price of the subscription receipts, being 21.28 cents per subscription receipt).

- Each Naked common share shall be exchanged by each holder, other than Canadian resident shareholders, for 1.9346 resulting issuer common shares at a deemed price of 11 cents per Naked common share and each Naked common share so exchanged shall be cancelled.
- Each share of common stock of Subco will be cancelled and replaced by one share of common stock of Mergeco issued to the resulting issuer.
- Each exchangeable company warrant (as defined in the merger agreement) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time shall be exchanged for one resulting issuer warrant (as defined in the merger agreement) on economically equivalent terms and all exchangeable company warrants so exchanged for resulting issuer warrants shall be cancelled.
- Each private placement finder's warrant (as defined in the merger agreement) issued by Naked and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time shall be exchanged for one resulting issuer finder's warrant (as defined in the merger agreement) on economically equivalent terms, and all private placement finders' warrants so exchanged for resulting issuer finders' warrants shall be cancelled.
- In consideration for the issuance of the resulting issuer common shares, resulting issuer warrants and resulting issuer finders' warrants to effect the merger, Mergeco will issue to the resulting issuer one Mergeco share for each resulting issuer common share issued in exchange for the Naked common shares, each resulting issuer warrant issued in exchange for the exchangeable company warrants and each resulting issuer finder's warrant issued in exchange for the private placement finders' warrants issued by Naked as described above.
- Mergeco will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the resulting issuer, with the resulting issuer holding all of the issued and outstanding Mergeco shares, and the resulting issuer will carry on the business previously carried on by Naked under the name Naked Revival.
