Revolving Credit Line

On August 12, 2026, the Company obtained a revolving line of credit of up to $2,500,000 (the “Revolving Credit Line”) from affiliates of Gotham Green Partners, LLC (collectively, the “Lender”) for the purpose of pursuing future opportunities in New York or Florida.

The Revolving Credit Line has been made available to the Company pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company and the Lender. The Company may borrow, repay and re-borrow under the Revolving Credit Line during the term of the facility. Outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Line will bear simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum. All outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Revolving Credit Line are due and payable in full on June 27, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”), or such earlier date as the obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Line become due and payable.

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Line are expected to be used to pursue the Company’s business strategy in New York and Florida, including, without limitation, future opportunities in New York and/or Florida, facility upgrades, operational expenses and general working capital.

Related Party Transaction

Gotham Green Partners, LLC may be considered a “related party” as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Accordingly, the Credit Agreement, including the Revolving Credit Line provided thereunder, may be a “related party transaction” as defined in MI 61-101. Such transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the expected closing of the Credit Agreement as the structure of the transaction had not been confirmed at that time.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC and the Canadian Securities Administrators. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are included in the tables above. This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In evaluating our business, we consider and use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures of operating performance. We define EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before share-based compensation, accretion expense, write-downs and impairments, gains and losses from changes in fair values of financial instruments, income or losses from equity-accounted investments, the effect of changes in accounting policy, non-recurring costs related to the Company’s Recapitalization Transaction, litigation costs related to ongoing legal proceedings, and other income. We present EBITDA because we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a measure of financial performance of other similarly situated companies in our industry, and we present Adjusted EBITDA because it removes non-recurring, irregular and one-time items that we believe may distort the comparability of EBITDA from period-to-period and with other industry participants.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not standardized financial measures defined under GAAP, and are not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Among other things, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the Company’s actual cash expenditures. Other companies may calculate similar measures differently than us, limiting their usefulness as comparative tools. We compensate for these limitations by relying on GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.
