Technology Partnerships Canada (“TPC”) projects are long-term (up to 30 years) commencing with an R&D phase, followed by a benefits phase – the period in which a product, or a technology, could generate revenue for the Company. In such cases, repayments would flow back to the program according to the terms and conditions of the Company’s contribution agreement.

 

In June 2018, the contribution agreement was amended and is included at its net present value in other payables. Further, in September 2024, the agreement was further amended with amended terms and conditions for the repayment of the debt with new payment schedule. Consequently, the old debt was de-recognized and the new debt was recognized with first payment starting in July 2025 and final payment to be discharged in July 2031.

The following table represents changes in the debt for repayments to Industry Canada:
