• Dual-Class Share Structure Entrenched

  Shareholders approved removing the automatic conversion of multiple voting shares upon a U.S. listing, preserving the current voting power structure. This follows previous proposals to entrench the dual-class structure.

• Option Repricing Approved

  An exchange program for up to 10,070,478 stock options (with exercise prices equal to or exceeding $5.00) into Restricted Share Units was approved. This represents a significant dilutive event, equivalent to approximately $36.65 million at the current stock price, effectively repricing underwater options.

• US Re-domiciliation Approved

  Shareholders approved the plan to continue the company from British Columbia, Canada to Delaware, USA. This is a key procedural step towards a potential uplisting to a major U.S. stock exchange, following the recent 1-for-3 reverse stock split effective June 5, 2026.

• Directors Elected

  All seven director nominees were elected, including Torsten Greif, whose appointment was previously announced.

The approval of re-domiciliation to Delaware is a strategic step towards a potential U.S. stock exchange uplisting.
