8. PROMISSORY NOTE

 

On November 21, 2022, the Company announced a $7,000,000 bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”) financing from Pinnacle Island LP (the “Lender”). The Bridge Loan financing closed on November 25, 2022 and net proceeds of $6,740,000 were received by the Company (after deducting the commitment fee of $260,000). The Bridge Loan was evidenced by the issuance of a promissory note by the Company to the Lender (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note had a principal amount of $7 million and bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum, calculated monthly and initially payable on February 22, 2023, being the maturity date of the Promissory Note, with a right of the Company to extend the maturity. The Company extended the maturity of the Promissory Note to March 22, 2023.

 

On March 17, 2023, the Company entered into an amended and restated Promissory Note (the “A&R Promissory Note”) extending the maturity of the Promissory Note from March 22, 2023 to November 24, 2023 (the “Extension”). All other terms of the Promissory Note remained the same. In connection with the Extension and entering into of the A&R Promissory Note, the Company agreed to pay an amendment and restatement fee of $225,000 and issued 350,000 non-transferable common share purchase warrants to the Lender (the “Lender Warrants”). Each Lender Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Common Share of the Company at a price of $1.75 per Common Share for a period of one year from the date of the A&R Promissory Note. In connection with the Extension and issuance of the Lender Warrants, the 119,229 common share purchase warrants previously issued to the Lender in connection with the initial issuance of the Promissory Note were cancelled concurrently with the Extension.

 

 

 

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

In connection with the A&R Promissory Note, interest and accretion expense of nil and $682,547 was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

 

The fair value of the liability of the Lender Warrants was estimated at $116,177 using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of the Lender Warrants and the amendment and restatement fee of $225,000 was added to the liability of the A&R Promissory Note and amortized over the remaining life of the A&R Promissory Note.

 

The fair value of the Lender warrants was calculated using the following assumptions:

 

   March 17, 2023 
Expected dividend yield   0%
Share price  $1.40 
Expected share price volatility   77.2%
Risk free interest rate   3.49%
Expected life of warrant   1 year 

 

The volatility was determined by calculating the historical volatility of share prices of the Company over one year using daily closing prices. The formula used to compute historical volatility is the standard deviation of the logarithmic returns.

 

On June 28, 2023, the Company repaid the A&R Promissory Note in full, and on March 17, 2024, the Lender Warrants expired unexercised.
