(ii)&nbsp;of the NYSE American Company Guide (the &#147;Company Guide&#148;). Section&nbsp;1003(a)(i) applies if a listed company has stockholders&#146; equity of less than U.S. $2.0&nbsp;million and has reported losses from continuing operations
and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years. Section&nbsp;1003(a)(ii) applies if a listed company has stockholders&#146; equity of less than U.S. $4.0&nbsp;million and has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net
losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. The Company reported stockholders&#146; deficit of approximately U.S. $(6.1) million (CAD $(8.2) million) as of September&nbsp;28, 2024, and has reported net losses in two of its three most
recent fiscal years ended March&nbsp;30, 2024 and three of its four most recent fiscal years ended March&nbsp;30, 2024. The Company is also not currently eligible for any exemption in Section&nbsp;1003(a) of the Company Guide from the
stockholders&#146; equity requirements. As a result, the Company has become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section&nbsp;1009 of the Company Guide and must submit a plan to NYSE American by March&nbsp;27, 2025 addressing how the
Company intends to regain compliance with Section&nbsp;1003(a)(i) and (ii)&nbsp;of the Company Guide by August&nbsp;25, 2026. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company intends to
timely deliver a plan of compliance to NYSE American.&nbsp;If the Company does not submit a plan, or if the plan the Company submits is not accepted by NYSE American, the Company will be subject to delisting proceedings as specified in the Company
Guide.&nbsp;In addition, if the plan is accepted by NYSE American, but the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards by August&nbsp;25, 2026, or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the plan during the plan
period, the Company will be subject to delisting proceedings.&nbsp;If the plan is accepted, the Company will also be subject to periodic NYSE American reviews, including quarterly monitoring for compliance with the plan. </P>
