(c) Stock options:

The Company has a stock option plan to purchase the Company’s common shares, under which it may grant stock options of up to 10% of the Company’s total number of shares issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis. The stock option plan provides for the granting of stock options to directors, officers, and employees, and to persons providing investor relations or consulting services, the limits being based on the Company’s total number of issued and outstanding shares per year. The stock options vest on the date of grant, except for those issued to persons providing investor relations services, which vest over a period of one year. The option price must be greater than or equal to the discounted market price on the grant date, and the option term cannot exceed ten years from the grant date.

Valuation of stock options requires the use of estimates and assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The expected volatility used in valuing stock options is based on volatility observed in historical periods. Changes in the underlying assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates. The fair value of the stock options was calculated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions and resulting fair values:

	June 30, 2025			December 31, 2024
Weighted average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate		2.80	%		3.51	%
Expected dividend yield		0	%		0	%
Expected life (years)		5			5
Expected stock price volatility		60.28	%		60.73	%
Expected forfeiture rate		13	%		15	%
Weighted average fair value	C$1.06			C$0.43

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company charged $863 (six months ended June 30, 2024 - $432) to operations as share-based payments for the fair value of stock options granted.

(d) Restricted Share Units:

On April 19, 2018, the Company’s Restricted Share Unit (“RSU”) Plan was approved by its shareholders. The RSU Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee under the supervision of the Board of Directors as compensation to officers, directors, consultants, and employees. The Compensation Committee determines the terms and conditions upon which a grant is made, including any performance criteria or vesting period.

Upon vesting, each RSU entitles the participant to receive one common share, provided that the participant is continuously employed with or providing services to the Company. RSUs track the value of the underlying common shares, but do not entitle the recipient to the underlying common shares until such RSUs vest, nor do they entitle a holder to exercise voting rights or any other rights attached to ownership or control of the common shares, until the RSU vests and the RSU participant receives common shares.

Continuity of RSUs is as follows:

	Underlying Shares			Weighted Average Price (C$)
RSUs outstanding, January 1, 2024		2,994,709		$	1.03
Granted		1,881,000		$	1.02
Exercised		(1,197,709	)	$	1.15
Cancelled / Forfeited		(137,132	)	$	1.08
RSUs outstanding, December 31, 2024		3,540,868		$	1.08
Granted		1,547,715		$	2.50
Exercised		(1,308,296	)	$	1.10
Cancelled / Forfeited		(443,572	)	$	1.11
RSUs outstanding, June 30, 2025		3,336,715		$	1.72

The following table summarizes information about the RSUs outstanding at June 30, 2025:

Issuance Date	Price (C$)		Number of RSUs Outstanding
March 29, 2023	$	1.12		560,000
July 10, 2023	$	0.94		25,000
April 1, 2024	$	1.02		1,204,000
April 9, 2025	$	2.41		1,476,000
May 27, 2025	$	4.38		71,715
				3,336,715

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company charged $819 (June 30, 2024 - $638) to operations as share-based payments for the fair value of the RSUs vested. The fair value of the RSUs is recognized over the vesting period with reference to vesting conditions and the estimated RSUs expected to vest.
