As such, no assurances can be made that any future dividends will be declared and/or paid. Dividend payments may be subject to withholding taxes.

The Company also announces that, in accordance with the terms of the convertible debentures dated May 24, 2023 (the "Debentures"), the Company has exercised its option to convert the outstanding Debentures into common shares in the capital of the Company ("Shares") by issuing 4,134,013 Shares to holders of the Debentures.
