    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 15pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are offering (the "<b>Offering</b>") common shares, no par value per share (each, a "<b>Common Share</b>") together with common share purchase warrants (each, a "<b>Warrant</b>") to purchase Common Shares. The Common Shares and Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately in this Offering but must be purchased together in this Offering. Each Common Share, or a Pre-funded Warrant (as defined below) in lieu thereof, is being sold together with a Warrant to purchase one Common Share.&#160; The assumed public offering price for each Common Share and accompanying Warrant is CAD$&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; . Each Warrant will have an exercise price per share of $&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; , will be exercisable upon issuance and have a term of five years from the date of issuance.</p>
    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_4"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are also offering to those purchasers, if any, whose purchase of Common Shares in this Offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Shares immediately following the consummation of this Offering, the opportunity to purchase, if the purchaser so chooses, pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Shares at an exercise price of CAD$0.001 per share (each a "<b>Pre-funded Warrant</b>").&#160; The purchase price of each Pre-funded Warrant is equal to the price per Common Share being sold to the public in this Offering, minus CAD$0.001. The Pre-funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time. For each Pre-funded Warrant we sell, the number of Common Shares we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The Warrants and the Pre-funded Warrants will not be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the "<b>Nasdaq</b>") and are not expected to trade in any market; however, we anticipate that the Common Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants will trade on the Nasdaq.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This Offering also includes the Common Shares issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Warrants, Pre-funded Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This Offering will terminate on&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; , 2025, unless we decide to terminate the Offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will have one closing for all the securities purchased in this Offering. The combined public offering price per Common Share (or Pre-funded warrant) and Warrant will be fixed for the duration of this Offering.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have engaged&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; (the "<b>placement agent</b>") to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with this Offering. The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities offered by this Prospectus. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering and the placement agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. We have agreed to pay placement agent fees to the placement agent as set forth in the table below, which assumes that we sell all of the securities offered by this Prospectus. Since we will deliver the securities to be issued in this Offering upon our receipt of investor funds, there is no arrangement for funds to be received in escrow, trust or similar arrangement. There is no minimum offering requirement as a condition of closing of this Offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this Offering, we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this Offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to pursue our business goals described in this Prospectus. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill all of our contemplated objectives due to a lack of interest in this Offering. Further, any proceeds from the sale of securities offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. See the section entitled "Risk Factors" for more information. We will bear all costs associated with the offering. See "Plan of Distribution" on page 111 of this Prospectus for more information regarding these arrangements.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Common Shares are listed for trading on the Nasdaq under the stock symbol &#8220;DFSC&#8221;, listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the &#8220;<b>TSXV</b>&#8221;) under the stock symbol &#8220;DFSC.V&#8221;, and listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the stock symbol of &#8220;62U2&#8221;. Certain of our outstanding warrants are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the trading symbol &#8220;DFSCW&#8221; and on the TSXV under the trading symbol &#8220;DFSC.WT.U&#8221;. We do not intend to apply for the listing of the Pre-funded Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Pre-funded Warrants will be limited.&#160; &#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On April 23, 2025, on the Nasdaq and on April 24, 2025, on the TSXV, we effected a twenty-one for one (21-for-1) reverse stock split of our Common Shares (the "<b>Reverse Split</b>"). Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on April 23, 2025, received one issued and outstanding post-Reverse Split Common Share of the Company in exchange for 21 outstanding pre-Reverse Split Common Shares of the Company.&#160; No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Split.&#160; All fractional shares created by the Reverse Split were rounded to the nearest whole number of Common Shares, with any fractional interest representing 0.5 or more Common Shares entitling holders thereof to receive one whole Common Share.&#160; At the opening of business on April 23, 2025, we had 530,365 outstanding Common Shares. Effective on the date of the Reverse Split, our outstanding securities that are convertible or exercisable into Common Shares were proportionately adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split in accordance with each security's terms with the exception of warrants.</p>

We have assumed a public offering price of CAD$&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; &#160;per Common Share. The actual public offering price per Common Share will be determined on the pricing date based on the closing price of our Common Shares on Nasdaq on that day and may reflect a discount of up to 15% (the maximum allowable discount under TSXV rules), with the final offering price determined through negotiations between us and the placement agent at the time of pricing.</p>

Some of our directors and officers, and the experts named in this Prospectus, are residents of Canada or otherwise reside outside of the United States, and all or a substantial portion of their assets, and all or a substantial portion of our assets, are located outside of the United States. We have appointed an agent for service of process in the United States, but it may be difficult for shareholders who reside in the United States to effect service within the United States upon those directors, officers and experts who are not residents of the United States. It may also be difficult for shareholders who reside in the United States to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon our civil liability and the civil liability of our directors, officers and experts under the United States federal securities laws. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and substantially all of our directors and officers are located outside the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States. There can be no assurance that United States investors will be able to enforce against us, members of our Board of Directors (the "<b>Board</b>"), officers or certain experts named herein who are residents of Canada or other countries outside the United States, any judgments in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under the federal securities laws.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, assumptions and estimates of our and our industry's future performance are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in <i>Risk Factors</i>. These and other factors could cause our future performance to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates. See <i>Forward-Looking Statements</i>.</p>

An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements compared to those that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include: </font></p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In this Prospectus, we have presented earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("<b>EBITDA</b>") and EBITDA that has been adjusted for the removal of one-time, irregular and nonrecurring items ("<b>Adjusted EBITDA</b>") to provide readers with a supplemental measure of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Management also uses non-IFRS measures, in addition to IFRS financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-IFRS financial measures enable us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise by hidden by the effect of certain expenses that we exclude in the calculations of the non-IFRS financial measures.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Accordingly, we believe that these non-IFRS financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis in the business and provides useful information to investors and securities analysts, and other interested parties in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing their overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We caution readers that these non-IFRS financial measures do not replace the presentation of our IFRS financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with IFRS. There are limitations in the use of non-IFRS measures because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under IFRS as well as they involve the exercise of judgment concerning exclusions of items from the comparable non-IFRS financial measure. Furthermore, other peers may use other non-IFRS measures to evaluate their performance, or may calculate non-IFRS measures differently, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as tools for comparison.</p>

    <p style="text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>RISK FACTORS</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There are a number of risks that may have a material and adverse impact on our future operating and financial performance and could cause our operating and financial performance to differ materially from the estimates described in our forward-looking statements. These include widespread risks associated with any form of business and specific risks associated with our business and our involvement in the defense technology industry.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This section describes risk factors identified as being potentially significant to us. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not discussed to date or not known to management could have material and adverse effects on the valuation of our securities, existing business activities, financial condition, results of operations, plans and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Risks Relating to This Offering</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this Offering.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">You will incur immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this Offering. After giving effect to the assumed sale by us of&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; Common Shares and Warrants at an assumed public offering price of CAD$&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; per Common Share and Warrant (assuming no sale of any Pre-funded Warrants in lieu of Common Shares), and after deducting placement agent commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, investors in this Offering can expect an immediate dilution of CAD$&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; per Common Share (see <i>Dilution)</i>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, you may experience further dilution (i) upon the exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants, (ii) upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, if applicable, and (iii) upon the exercise of outstanding warrants and options of the Company<font style="color: #231f20;">.</font></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The liquidity of our Common Shares may be decreased as a result of the Reverse Split.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The liquidity of the shares of our Common Shares may be affected adversely by the Reverse Split given the reduced number of shares that are now outstanding, especially if the market price of our Common Shares does not increase as a result of the Reverse Split. In addition, the Reverse Split may increase the number of shareholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares) of our Common Shares, creating the potential for such stockholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting such sales.</p>
    <div id="footer_page_17">
        <p style="text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">11</p>
    </div>
    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_18"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Although we believe that a higher market price of our Common Shares may help generate greater or broader investor interest, there can be no assurance that our increased share price following the Reverse Split will actually attract new investors, including institutional investors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market price of our Common Shares will satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. As a result, the trading liquidity of our Common Shares may not necessarily improve.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are selling a substantial number of Common Shares and Warrants in this Offering, which could cause the price of our Common Shares to decline</b></i>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In this Offering, we will sell up to&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; Common Shares (assuming no purchase of Pre-funded Warrants) and Warrants. We will also issue up to&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; Placement Agent Warrants, each of which is exercisable for one Common Share. The existence of the potential additional Common Shares in the public market, or the perception that such additional shares may be in the market, could adversely affect the price of our Common Shares. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those Common Shares or the availability of those Common Shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>This is a best efforts offering, no minimum number of securities is required to be sold, and we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our business plans.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the common shares and/or Pre-funded Warrants in this offering. The placement agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds that must be sold as a condition to completion of this Offering. Because there is no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds required as a condition to the closing of this Offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this Offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell all of the securities offered in this Offering. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short term and may need to raise additional funds, which may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>There is no public market for the Warrants or Pre-funded Warrants being sold in this Offering.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There is no established public trading market for the Warrants or Pre-funded Warrants being sold in this Offering. We will not list the Warrants or Pre-funded Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Therefore, we do not expect a market to ever develop for the Warrants or Pre-funded Warrants. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants or Pre-funded Warrants will be limited.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The Pre-funded Warrants are speculative in nature.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Pre-funded Warrants do not confer any rights of Common Share ownership on their respective holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire Common Shares at a fixed price. Commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the Pre-funded Warrants may exercise their right to acquire the Common Shares and pay the stated exercise price per share until exercised in full.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this Offering and may not use the proceeds effectively.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from any offering by us and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this Offering. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that the proceeds will be invested in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for our company.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We have limited operating experience as a publicly traded company in the United States.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have limited operating experience as a publicly traded company in the United States. Although the individuals who now constitute our management team have experience managing a publicly traded company, there is no assurance that the past experience of our management team will be sufficient to operate our company as a publicly traded company in the United States, including timely compliance with the disclosure requirements of the SEC. As an SEC registrant, we are required to maintain internal control systems and procedures in order to satisfy the periodic and current reporting requirements under applicable SEC regulations and comply with the Nasdaq listing standards. These requirements place significant strain on our management team, infrastructure and other resources. In addition, our management team may not be able to successfully or efficiently manage our company as a United States public reporting company that is recently subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of operating as a United States public company.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a United States public company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company or as a Canadian public company. For example, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and will be required to comply with the applicable requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC and the including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate governance practices. Compliance with these requirements increases our legal and financial compliance costs and makes some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, management and other personnel need to divert attention from operational and other business matters to devote substantial time to these public company requirements. In particular, we incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404, which involves annual assessments of a company's internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and may need to establish an internal audit function.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may fail to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, which could result in a delisting of our securities.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as minimum bid price requirements, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our Common Shares and/or U.S. IPO Warrants (as defined below). Such a delisting would have a materially adverse effect on the price of our outstanding securities, impair the ability to sell or purchase our Common Shares or securities convertible or exercisable into Common Shares when persons wish to do so, and materially adversely affect our ability to raise capital or pursue strategic restructuring, refinancing or other transactions on acceptable terms, or at all.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To maintain the listing of our Common Shares on Nasdaq, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including those related to the price of our Common Shares. Pursuant to the requirements of Nasdaq, if the closing bid price of a company's stock falls below US$1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days (the "Minimum Bid Requirement"), Nasdaq will notify the company that it is no longer in compliance with the Nasdaq listing qualifications. If a company is not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement, the company will have 180 calendar days to regain compliance. On May 16, 2024, we initially received notice from Nasdaq that we were no longer in compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 13, 2024, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we were provided with an additional and final 180 calendar day period, or until May 12, 2025, to regain compliance (the "Compliance Date"), with the Minimum Bid Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our Common Shares must meet or exceed US$1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time prior to the Compliance Date, unless the Nasdaq staff exercises its discretion to extend this ten-day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On May 8, 2025, the Company announced that it received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "<b>Notification Letter</b>"). The Notification Letter confirmed that the Company evidenced a closing bid price at or greater than the USD$1.00 per common share minimum requirement for 10 consecutive business days from April 24, 2025, to May 7, 2025. As a result, the listing matter was closed.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A delisting from Nasdaq could have negative results, including the potential loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities, as well as a limited amount of news and analyst coverage. In the event of a delisting, we would attempt to take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our securities to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our securities, prevent our Common Shares from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The Form of Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant Certificates designates the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants. The forum provisions could limit the ability of holders of Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Company.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Form of Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant Certificates provide that (i) all questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof, (ii) all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the "<b>New York Courts</b>") and (iii) that each party to the Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute under the Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant or in connection therewith or with any transaction contemplated thereby or discussed therein (including with respect to the enforcement of any provision under the Warrant and Pre-funded Warrant), and irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such Proceeding.&#160; &#160; &#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<b>Securities Act</b>"), Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States are the sole and exclusive forum.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in the Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants will be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in the applicable agreement. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope the forum provisions of the applicable agreement, is filed in a court other than a court of the State of New York (a "foreign action") in the name of any holder of Warrants and Pre-funded Warrants, such holder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction of the New York Courts in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an "enforcement action"), and (y) having service of process made upon such warrant holder in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant holder's counsel in the foreign action as agent for such warrant holder.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">These forum provisions may limit a warrant holder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find these provisions inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are an early-stage company.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are an early-stage company and as such, we are subject to many risks including under-capitalization, cash shortages, and limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources and the lack of revenue. There is no assurance that we will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders' investment and the likelihood of success must be considered in light of our early stage of operations. Our prospects must be considered speculative in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations, particularly in the highly competitive and rapidly evolving markets in which we operate. To attempt to address these risks, we must, among other things, successfully implement our business plan, marketing, and commercialization strategies, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel. A substantial risk is involved in investing in us because, as a smaller commercial enterprise that has fewer resources than an established company, our management may be more likely to make mistakes, and we may be more vulnerable operationally and financially to any mistakes that may be made, as well as to external factors beyond our control.</p>

There can be no certainty that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability or positive cash flow from our operating activities.

        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">expenses associated with litigation.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There is no guarantee that we will ever become profitable. To date, we have generated limited revenues and a large portion of our expenses are fixed, including expenses related to facilities, equipment, contractual commitments and personnel. With the anticipated commercialization for certain of our product offerings during Fiscal 2024, we expect our net losses from operations will improve. Our ability to generate additional revenues and potential to become profitable will depend largely on the timely productization of our products, coupled with securing timely, cost-effective outsourced manufacturing arrangements and marketing our products. There can be no assurance that any such events will occur or that we will ever become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability, we cannot predict the level of such profitability. If we sustain losses over an extended period of time, we may be unable to continue our business.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Global inflationary pressure may have an adverse impact on our gross margins and our business.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Since December 31, 2021, we have experienced increases in global inflation, resulting in an increase in cost for some of the raw materials (batons / custom chemicals and casings) that we source to manufacture the ammunition for our ARWEN launchers. However, this increase in cost had a small negative impact to the overall gross margin earned from the sales of ARWEN ammunition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As we are not yet in the production phase for digitization and counter-threat business lines, we do not currently procure large volume of raw materials and therefore the current inflation is negligible for these business lines except for labor costs relating to research and development ("R&amp;D") activities. During our Fiscal 2024, we incurred significant payroll cost increases for some of our employees in order to retain and hire engineers given the strong local demand for experienced software and hardware engineers.&#160; While we believe we will be able to pass on this inflation cost to our prospect military customers, there is no assurance that we will succeed. Accordingly, continued inflationary pressure may have an adverse impact on our gross margins and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may not be able to successfully execute our business plan.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The execution of our business plan poses many challenges and is based on a number of assumptions. We may not be able to successfully execute our business plan. If we experience significant cost overruns, or if our business plan is more costly than we anticipate, certain activities may be delayed or eliminated, resulting in changes or delays to our current plans. Also, we may be compelled to secure additional funding (which may or may not be available or available at conditions unfavorable to us) to execute our business plan. We cannot predict with certainty our future revenues or results from our operations. If the assumptions on which our revenues or expenditures forecasts are based change, the benefits of our business plan may change as well. In addition, we may consider expanding our business beyond what is currently contemplated in our business plan. Depending on the financing requirements of a potential business expansion, we may be required to raise additional capital through the issuance of equity or debt. If we are unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, we may be unable to pursue a potential business expansion.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>A significant portion of our revenues are non-recurring.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A significant portion of our revenue for Fiscal 2024 is prior to commercialization of our significant projects and is considered to be non-recurring. We have significantly reduced our reliance on non-recurring revenues during Fiscal 2024 with the ARWEN business line, the staffing of Directorate Land Command Systems Program Management Software Engineering Facility ("DSEF") and the land command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance ("Land C4ISR") resources, the ramp-up of the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> division and the monthly Ground Search and Rescue ("GSAR") resources.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>There is uncertainty with respect to our revenue growth.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There can be no assurance that we can generate substantial revenue growth, or that any revenue growth that is achieved can be sustained. Revenue growth that we have achieved or may achieve may not be indicative of future operating results. In addition, we may further increase our operating expenses in order to fund higher levels of R&amp;D, increase our sales and marketing efforts and increase our administrative resources in anticipation of future growth. To the extent that increases in such expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by increased revenues, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may not be able to fully develop our products, which could prevent us from ever becoming profitable.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If we experience difficulties in the development process, such as capacity constraints, quality control problems or other disruptions, we may not be able to fully develop market-ready commercial products at acceptable costs, which would adversely affect our ability to effectively enter the market. A failure by us to achieve a low-cost structure through economies of scale or improvements in manufacturing processes would have a material adverse effect on our commercialization plans and our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may experience delays in product sales due to marketing and distribution capabilities.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In order to successfully commercialize our products, we must continue to develop our internal marketing and sales force with technical expertise and with supporting distribution capabilities or arrange for third parties to perform these services. In order to successfully commercialize any of our products, we must have an experienced sales and distribution infrastructure. The continued development of our sales and distribution infrastructure will require substantial resources, which may divert the attention of our management and key personnel and defer our product development and commercialization efforts. To the extent that we enter into marketing and sales arrangements with other companies, our revenues will depend on the efforts of others.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Additionally, in marketing our products, we would likely compete with companies that currently have extensive and well-funded marketing and sales operations. Despite marketing and sales efforts, we may be unable to compete successfully against these companies. We may not be able to do so on favorable terms.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In the event we fail to develop substantial sales, marketing and distribution channels, or to enter into arrangements with third parties for those purposes, we will experience delays in product sales, which could have a material adverse effect on prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There is no assurance as to whether our products will be accepted in the marketplace. While we believe our products address customer needs, the acceptance of our products may be delayed or not materialize. We have incurred and anticipate incurring substantial expenses relating to the development of our products, the marketing of our products and initial operations of our business. Our revenues and possible profits will depend upon, among other things, our ability to successfully market our products to customers. There is no assurance that revenues and profits will be generated.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Strategic alliances may not be achieved or achieve their goals.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To achieve a scalable operating model with minimal capital expenditures, we plan to rely upon strategic alliances with original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") for the manufacturing and distribution of our products. There can be no assurance that such strategic alliances can be achieved or will achieve their goals.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are dependent on key suppliers for our ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> product line.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are only able to purchase certain key components of our products from a limited number of suppliers for our ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> product line within our less-lethal business line. As of the date of this Prospectus, we do not have any commercial or financial contracts with any key suppliers who we have procured raw materials from. Procurement is done in the form of individual, non-related standard purchase orders. As a result, there is no contract in place to ensure sufficient quantities are available timely on favorable terms and consequently this could result in possible lost sales or uncompetitive product pricing.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may incur higher costs or unavailability of components, materials and accessories.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As we expect to commercialize certain of our product lines in the year ended September 30, 2025 (&#8220;<b>Fiscal 2025</b>&#8221;), we may depend on certain domestic and international suppliers for the delivery of components and materials used in the assembly of our products and certain accessories including ammunition, used with our products. Further, any reliance on third-party suppliers may create risks related to our potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of components or materials and reduced control over pricing and timing of delivery of components and materials. We currently have no long-term agreements with any of our suppliers and there is no guarantee the supply will not be interrupted.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In light of the current global supply chain challenges caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, components used in the manufacture of our products may be delayed, become unavailable or discontinued. Any delays may take weeks or months to resolve. Further, parts obsolescence may require us to redesign our product to ensure quality replacement components. While we have not been impacted significantly from the above events to date, there is no assurance that we will not experience significant setback in operations if the global supply chain challenges worsen or continue to persist for a longer period of time. Accordingly, supply chain delays could cause significant delays in manufacturing and loss of sales, leading to adverse effects significantly impacting our financial condition or results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Additionally, our shipping costs and the timely delivery of our products could be adversely impacted by a number of factors which could reduce the profitability of our operations, including: higher fuel costs, potential port closures, customs clearance issues, increased government regulation or changes for imports of foreign products into Canada, delays created by terrorist attacks or threats, public health issues and pandemics and epidemics, national disasters or work stoppages, and other matters. Any interruption of supply for any material components of our products could significantly delay the shipment of our products and have a material adverse effect on our revenues, profitability, and financial condition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We rely upon a limited number of third parties for manufacturing, shipping, transportation, logistics, marketing and sales of our products.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We rely on third parties to ship, transport, and provide logistics for our products. Further, we plan on relying on third parties to manufacture, market and sell our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> system products. Our dependence on a limited number of third parties for these services leaves us vulnerable due to our need to secure these parties' services on favorable terms. Loss of, or an adverse effect on, any of these relationships or failure of any of these third parties to perform as expected could have a material and adverse effect on our business, sales, results of operations, financial condition, and reputation.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may be subject to product liability proceedings or claims.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may be subject to proceedings or claims that may arise in the ordinary conduct of the business, which could include product and service warranty claims, which could be substantial. Product liability for us is a major risk as some of our products will be used by military personnel in theaters-of-war (for the Tactical and Counter-Threat product offerings) and by consumers and law enforcement (for the less-lethal systems). The occurrence of product defects due to non-compliance of our manufacturing specifications and the inability to correct errors could result in the delay or loss of market acceptance of our products, material warranty expense, diversion of technological and other resources from our product development efforts, and the loss of credibility with customers, manufacturers' representatives, distributors, value-added resellers, systems integrators, OEMs and end-users, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial conditions. To mitigate product liability risk, our products will be sold with a liability disclaimer for misuse of the product.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>If we are unable to successfully design and develop or acquire new products, our business may be harmed.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To maintain and increase sales we must continue to introduce new products and improve or enhance our existing products or new products. The success of our new and enhanced products depends on many factors, including anticipating consumer preferences, finding innovative solutions to consumer problems or acquiring new solutions through mergers and acquisitions, differentiating our products from those of our competitors, and maintaining the strength of our brand. The design and development of our products as well as acquisitions of other businesses.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our business could be harmed if we are unable to accurately forecast demand for our products or our results of operations.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To ensure adequate inventory supply, we forecast inventory needs and often place orders with our manufacturers before we receive firm orders from our retail partners or customers. If we fail to accurately forecast demand, we may experience excess inventory levels or a shortage of products.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If we underestimate the demand for our products, we or our suppliers may not be able to scale to meet our demand, and this could result in delays in the shipment of our products and our failure to satisfy demand, as well as damage to our reputation and retail partner relationships. If we overestimate the demand for our products, we could face inventory levels in excess of demand, which could result in inventory write-downs or write-offs and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices, which would harm our gross margins. In addition, failures to accurately predict the level of demand for our products could cause a decline in sales and harm our results of operations and financial condition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, we may not be able to accurately forecast our results of operations and growth rate. Forecasts may be particularly challenging as we expand into new markets and geographies and develop and market new products for which we have no or limited historical data. Our historical sales, expense levels, and profitability may not be an appropriate basis for forecasting future results. Our lack of historical data related to new products makes it particularly difficult to make forecasts related to such products. These effects are expected to last through the remainder of the pandemic. Pandemic related variances require a very quick pivot and adjustments to the supply chain, production and marketing. If we are unable to make these changes quickly or at all our inventory, production and sales may be materially affected.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Failure to accurately forecast our results of operations and growth rate could cause us to make poor operating decisions that we may not be able to correct in a timely manner. Consequently, actual results could be materially different than anticipated. Even if the markets in which we compete expand, we cannot assure you that our business will grow at similar rates, if at all.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Undetected flaws may be discovered in our products.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There can be no assurance that, despite testing by us, flaws will not be found in our products and services, resulting in loss of, or delay in, market acceptance. We may be unable, for technological or other reasons, to introduce products and services in a timely manner or at all in response to changing customer requirements. In addition, there can be no assurance that while we are attempting to finish the development of our technologies, products and services, a competitor will not introduce similar or superior technologies, products and services, thus diminishing our advantage, rendering our technologies, products and services partially or wholly obsolete, or at least requiring substantial re-engineering in order to become commercially acceptable. Failure by us to maintain technology, product and service introduction schedules, avoid cost overruns and undetected errors, or introduce technologies, products and services that are superior to competing technologies, products and services would have a materially adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We will be reliant on information technology systems and may be subject to damaging cyber-attacks.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We use third parties for certain hardware, software, telecommunications and other information technology ("IT") services in connection with our operations. Our operations depend, in part, on how well we and our suppliers protect networks, equipment, IT systems and software against damage from a number of threats, including, but not limited to, cable cuts, damage to physical plants, natural disasters, intentional damage and destruction, fire, power loss, hacking, computer viruses, vandalism and theft. Our operations also depend on the timely maintenance, upgrade and replacement of networks, equipment, IT systems and software, as well as pre-emptive expenses to mitigate the risks of failures. Any of these and other events could result in information system failures, delays and/or increase in capital expenses. The failure of information systems or a component of information systems could, depending on the nature of any such failure, adversely impact our reputation and results of operations. Moreover, failure to meet the minimum cybersecurity requirements for defense contracts may disqualify us from participating in the tendering process. To date, we have not experienced any losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, but there can be no assurance that we will not incur such losses in the future. Our risk and exposure to these matters cannot be fully mitigated because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats. As a result, cybersecurity and the continued development and enhancement of controls, processes and practices designed to protect systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access is a priority. As cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>In certain circumstances, our reputation could be damaged.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Damage to our reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include any negative publicity, whether true or not. Reputational risk for us is a major risk as some of our products will be used by military personnel in theaters-of-war or by law enforcement personnel. The increased usage of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users has made it increasingly easier for individuals and groups to communicate and share opinions and views regarding us and our activities, whether true or not. Although we believe that we operate in a manner that is respectful to all stakeholders and that we take care in protecting our image and reputation, we do not ultimately have direct control over how we are perceived by others. Reputational loss may result in decreased investor confidence, increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations and an impediment to our overall ability to advance our projects, thereby having a material adverse impact on financial performance, financial condition, cash flows and growth prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our results of operations are difficult to predict and depend on a variety of factors.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There is no assurance that the production, technology acquisitions, and the commercialization of proprietary technology for game-changing applications in the military, security forces and personal defense markets will be managed successfully. Any inability to achieve such commercial success could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects. In addition, the comparability of results may be affected by changes in accounting guidance or changes in our ownership of certain assets. Accordingly, the results of operations from year to year may not be directly comparable to prior reporting periods. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, the results of operations may fluctuate significantly from period to period, and the results of any one period may not be indicative of the results for any future period.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The success of our Digitization business line depends on the efficacy of our proprietary algorithms. Errors, failures, and/or flaws in our proprietary algorithms could have an adverse effect on our operating results, business and reputation.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The success of our Digitization business line depends on, among other things, our proprietary algorithms, which provide situational awareness solutions to clients who require information to be provided quickly due to the critical challenges at hand in industries such as law enforcement, fire, emergency response, search and rescue and natural disaster management. Accordingly, errors, failures, and/or flaws in such algorithms could result in the loss of current or prospective client contracts and could adversely affect our operating results, business, and reputation.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our ability to compete depends, in part, upon successful protection of our intellectual property. While we have some patents and trademarks, we also rely on trade secrets to protect our technology, including for our proprietary algorithms for the Digitization business line, which is inherently risky. Going forward, we will attempt to protect proprietary and intellectual property rights to our technologies through available copyright and trademark laws, patents and licensing and distribution arrangements with reputable international companies in specific territories and media for limited durations. Despite these precautions, existing copyright, trademark and patent laws afford only limited practical protection in certain countries where we distribute our products. As a result, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy and distribute our products or certain portions or applications of our intended products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Litigation may also be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Any such litigation, infringement or invalidity claims could result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We face risks from doing business internationally.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our commercialization strategies for our products include sales efforts outside Canada and deriving revenues from international sources. As a result, our business is subject to certain risks inherent in international business, many of which are beyond our control.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">These risks may include:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Events or developments related to these and other risks associated with international trade could adversely affect our revenues from non-Canadian sources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects. Protection of electronically stored data is costly and if our data is compromised in spite of this protection, we may incur additional costs, lost opportunities, and damage to our reputation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We maintain information in digital form as necessary to conduct our business, including confidential and proprietary information and personal information regarding our employees.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Data maintained in digital form is subject to the risk of intrusion, tampering, and theft. We develop and maintain systems to prevent this from occurring, but it is costly and requires ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become more sophisticated. Moreover, despite our efforts, the possibility of intrusion, tampering, and theft cannot be eliminated entirely, and risks associated with each of these acts remain. In addition, we provide confidential information, digital content and personal information to third parties when it is necessary to pursue business objectives. While we obtain assurances that these third parties will protect this information and, where appropriate, monitor the protections employed by these third parties, there is a risk that data systems of these third parties may be compromised. If our data systems or data systems of these third parties are compromised, our ability to conduct our business may be impaired, we may lose profitable opportunities, or the value of those opportunities may be diminished, and we may lose revenue as a result of unlicensed use of our intellectual property. A breach of our network security or other theft or misuse of confidential and proprietary information, digital content or personal employee information could subject us to business, regulatory, litigation, and reputation risk, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our success depends on management and key personnel.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key employees. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives, which could disrupt our business. If we are unable to attract and retain top talent, our ability to compete may be harmed. Our success is also highly dependent on our continuing ability to identify, hire, train, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel. Competition for highly skilled executives and other employees is high in our industry, especially from larger and better capitalized defense and security companies. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. Failure to attract and retain qualified executive officers and other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our directors, officers or members of management may have conflicts of interest.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Certain of our directors, officers, and other members of management serve (and may in the future serve) as directors, officers, and members of management of other companies and therefore, it is possible that a conflict may arise between their duties as one of our directors, officers or members of management and their duties as a director, officer or member of management of such other companies. Our directors and officers are aware of the existence of laws governing accountability of directors and officers for corporate opportunity and requiring disclosures by directors of conflicts of interest and we will rely upon such laws in respect of any directors' and officers' conflicts of interest or in respect of any breaches of duty by any of our directors or officers. All such conflicts will be disclosed by such directors or officers in accordance with the BCBCA and they will govern themselves in respect thereof to the best of their ability in accordance with the obligations imposed upon them by law.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>It may not be possible for foreign investors to enforce actions against us, and our directors and officers.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and our Canadian subsidiaries are organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario and our United States subsidiaries are organized under the laws of Delaware. All of our directors and executive officers reside principally in Canada. Because all or a substantial portion of our assets and the assets of these persons are located in Canada, it may not be possible for foreign investors, including United States investors, to effect service of process from outside of Canada upon us or those persons, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of United States courts predicted upon civil liabilities under the Exchange Act or other United States laws. Furthermore, it may not be possible to enforce against us foreign judgments obtained in courts outside of Canada based upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws or other laws in those jurisdictions.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The loss of services of members of our management team may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our success depends in large part upon the continued service of key members of our management team. Because we do not maintain "key person" life insurance on any of our executive officers, employees or consultants, any delay in replacing such persons, or an inability to replace them with persons of similar expertise, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our internal computer systems are vulnerable to damage and failure.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Despite the implementation of security measures and backup storage, our internal computer systems are vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, natural disasters, terrorism, war, and telecommunication and electrical failure. Any system failure, accident or security breach that causes interruption in our operations could result in a material disruption of our projects. To the extent that any disruption or security breach results in a loss or damage to our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we may incur liability as a result. In addition, our technology program may be adversely affected, and the further development of our technology may be delayed. We may also incur additional costs to remedy the damages caused by these disruptions or security breaches.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Business interruptions could adversely affect our operations.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our operations are vulnerable to outages and interruptions due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, and similar events beyond our control. Although we have developed certain plans to respond in the event of a disaster, there can be no assurance that they will be effective in the event of a specific disaster. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are subject to risks associated with possible acquisitions, licensing, business combinations, or joint ventures.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">While to date we have mainly focused on developing our own products, from time to time, we could be engaged in discussions and activities with respect to possible business and/or technology acquisitions or licensing, sale of assets, business combinations, or joint ventures with the view of either complementing or expanding our internally developed products. These acquisitions and licensing activities are not crucial to our long-term business success. The anticipated benefit from any of the transactions we may pursue may not be realized as expected. Regardless of whether any such transaction is consummated, the negotiation of a potential transaction and the integration of the acquired business or technology, acquired or licensed, could incur significant costs and cause diversion of management's time and resources. Any such transaction could also result in impairment of goodwill and other intangibles, development write-offs, and other related expenses. Such transactions may pose challenges in the consolidation and integration of IT, accounting systems, personnel, and operations. We may have difficulty managing the combined entity in the short term if we experience a significant loss of management personnel during the transition period after a significant acquisition. We may also have difficulty managing the product development and commercialization following a technology acquisition or licensing. No assurance can be given that expansion, licensing or acquisition opportunities will be successful, completed on time, or that we will realize expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements, synergies or other benefits. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Claims against us relating to any acquisition, licensing or business combination may necessitate seeking claims against the seller for which the seller may not indemnify us or that may exceed the seller's or licensor's indemnification obligations.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There may be liabilities assumed in any technology acquisition or licensing or business combination that we did not discover or that we underestimated in the course of performing our due diligence. Although a seller or licensor generally will have indemnification obligations to us under a licensing, acquisition or merger agreement, these obligations usually will be subject to financial limitations, such as general deductibles and maximum recovery amounts, as well as time limitations. There is no assurance that our right to indemnification from any seller or licensors will be enforceable, collectible or sufficient in amount, scope or duration to fully offset the amount of any undiscovered or underestimated liabilities that we may incur. Any such liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Growth may cause pressure on our management and systems.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our future growth may cause significant pressure on our management, and our operational, financial, and other resources and systems. Our ability to manage our growth effectively will require that we implement and improve our operational, financial, manufacturing, and management information systems, hire new personnel and then train, manage, and motivate these new employees. These demands may require the hiring of additional management personnel and the development of additional expertise within the existing management team. Any increase in resources devoted to production, business development, and distribution efforts without a corresponding increase in our operational, financial, and management information systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For certain of our product lines, we have elected to protect our technology and products as trade secrets as opposed to seeking patent protection. We may, in future, elect to seek patent protection for some of our future products. While we believe that our products and other intellectual property do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties, our commercial success depends, in part, upon us not infringing on the intellectual property rights of others. A number of our competitors and other third parties have been issued or may have filed patent applications or may obtain additional patents and proprietary rights for technologies similar to those utilized by us. Some of these patents may grant very broad protection to the owners of the patents. While we have engaged external intellectual property legal counsels to undertake an extensive review of existing third-party patents and prepare our patent applications for some of our products (see <i>Business Overview</i>), there is no assurance that their reviews and conclusion will not prevail if challenged by a third party of an alleged infringement of their intellectual properties. We may become subject to claims by third parties that our technology infringes their intellectual property rights due to the growth of products in our target markets, the overlap in functionality of those products and the prevalence of products. We may become subject to these claims either directly or through indemnities against these claims that we provide to end-users, manufacturer's representatives, distributors, value-added resellers, system integrators and OEMs. Litigation may be necessary to determine the scope, enforceability and validity of third-party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. Some of our competitors have, or are affiliated with companies having, substantially greater resources than we and these competitors may be able to sustain the costs of complex intellectual property litigation to a greater degree and for a longer period of time than us. Regardless of their merit, any such claims could be time consuming to evaluate and defend, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or stoppages, divert management's attention and focus away from the business, subject us to significant liabilities and equitable remedies, including injunctions, require that we enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements and require that we modify or stop using infringing technology.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may be prohibited from developing or commercializing certain technologies and products unless we obtain a license from a third party. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such license on commercially favorable terms or at all. If we do not obtain such a license, we could be required to cease the sale of certain of our products.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Changes in U.S. administrative policy, including the imposition of or increases in tariffs, changes to existing trade agreements and any resulting changes in international trade relations, such as trade wars, may have a material adverse impact on impact on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our business, financial performance, and operating results may be adversely affected by changes in international trade policies, including the imposition of new tariffs or retaliatory and reciprocal tariffs, particularly between the United States and its trading partners. We are exposed to evolving U.S. trade policies that may affect cross-border commerce and supply chains, including the impact of tariffs on materials we import to Canada for production as well as the potential impact of tariffs on the products sold into the US. In recent periods, the U.S. government has implemented or proposed increased tariffs on certain imported goods from various jurisdictions. In response, some affected countries, including Canada, have enacted or signaled retaliatory tariffs on U.S.-origin goods or components.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">These developments contribute to uncertainty in the global trade environment and could result in increased costs for raw materials, components, or finished products used in or sold by our business. We may also experience disruptions or delays in our supply chain, particularly if suppliers or logistics providers adjust operations in reaction to tariff changes. Moreover, as we conduct business and report financial results in both U.S. and Canadian dollars, adverse changes in foreign exchange rates driven by trade policy volatility could impact our revenues, cost structure, and overall financial condition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, if new or increased tariffs are imposed on the goods we sell into the U.S. market, our products may become more expensive for our customers. There is a risk that customers may be unwilling or unable to absorb the resulting cost increases, which could lead to decreased demand, lost sales, or pressure on our margins if we are unable to pass on the full amount of the tariff through pricing. This may be particularly significant in competitive markets or with customers operating under fixed budgets. We continue to monitor developments in trade relations between the U.S. and its global partners, but we cannot predict the scope, duration, or impact of any such measures. Any sustained escalation in tariffs or retaliatory trade actions, including those involving Canada, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are subject to extensive government regulation in the United States for our products designed for the military market.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our customers in the United States are global defense contractors and they are subject to various United States government regulations which some may be passed on to us in order for them to be compliant. The most significant regulations and regulatory authorities that may affect our future business include the following:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the Federal Acquisition Regulations and supplemental agency regulations, which comprehensively regulate the formation and administration of, and performance under, United States government contracts;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires certification and disclosure of all factual cost and pricing data in connection with contract negotiations;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the False Claims Act and the False Statements Act, which impose penalties for payments made on the basis of false facts provided to the government and on the basis of false statements made to the government, respectively;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits United States companies from providing anything of value to a foreign official to help obtain, retain or direct business, or obtain any unfair advantage; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">laws, regulations and executive orders restricting the use and dissemination of information classified for national security purposes or determined to be "controlled unclassified information" and the exportation of certain products and technical data.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our failure to comply with applicable regulations, rules and approvals; changes in the United States government's interpretation of such regulations, rules and approvals as have been and are applied to our contracts, proposals or business or misconduct by any of our employees could result in the imposition of fines and penalties, the loss of security clearances, a decrease in profitability, or the loss of our subcontract contracts with United States defense contractors generally, any of which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>A decline in the United States and other government budgets, changes in spending or budgetary priorities, or delays in contract awards may significantly and adversely affect our future revenue.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the years ended September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, 10%, 3%, and 54%, respectively, of the Company's revenue was denominated in U.S. dollar driven by contracts with U.S. prime contractors in the defense sector. Our results of operations could be adversely affected by government spending caps or changes in government budgetary priorities, as well by delays in the government budget process, program starts, or the award of contracts or orders under existing contracts. As a result, the market for our military solution may be impacted due to shifts in the political environment and changes in the government and agency leadership positions under the new United States administration. If annual budget appropriations or continuing resolutions are not enacted timely, we could face United States government shutdown, which could adversely impact our business and our ability to receive indirectly timely payment from United States government entities on future contracts.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>United States government contracts are generally not fully funded at inception and contain certain provisions that may be unfavorable to us.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have entered into defense contracts with United States prime defense contractors, which it in turns transact directly with the United States government.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">United States government contracts typically involve long lead times for design and development and are subject to significant changes in contract scheduling. Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may continue for several years. Consequently, programs are often only partially funded initially, and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. The termination or reduction of funding for a government program would result in a loss of anticipated future revenue attributable to that program. In addition, United States government contracts generally contain provisions permitting termination, in whole or in part, at the government's convenience or for contractor default.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The actual receipt of revenue on future awards subcontracted to us may never occur or may change because a program schedule could change or the program could be cancelled, or a contract could be reduced, modified or terminated early.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">While we had no outstanding United States government contracts (directly or indirectly) as of the date of this Prospectus, we are exposed to the above risk for future United States government related contracts.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may not be able to comply with changes in government policies and legislation.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The manufacture, sale, purchase, possession and use of weapons, ammunitions, firearms, and explosives are subject to federal, provincial and foreign laws. If such regulation becomes more expansive in the future, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, and cash flows. New legislation, regulations, or changes to or new interpretations of existing regulation could impact our ability to manufacture or sell our products and our projectiles, or limit their market, which could impact our cost of sales and demand for our products. Similarly changes in laws related to the domestic or international use of chemical irritants by civilians or law enforcement could impact both our cost of sales and the size of our reachable market.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may be subject, both directly and indirectly, to the adverse impact of existing and potential future government regulation of our products, technology, operations, and markets. For example, the development, production, exportation, importation, and transfer of our products and technology is subject to Canadian and provincial laws. Further, as we plan to conduct business in the United States, we will also be subject to United States and foreign export control, sanctions, customs, import and anti-boycott laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations (the "EAR") (collectively, the "Trade Control Laws"). If one or more of our products or technology, or the parts and components we buy from others, is or become subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (the "ITAR") or national security controls under the EAR, this could significantly impact our operations, for example by severely limiting our ability to sell, export, or otherwise transfer our products or technology, or to release controlled technology to foreign person employees or others in the United States or abroad. We may not be able to retain licenses and other authorizations required under the applicable Trade Control Laws. The failure to satisfy the requirements under the Trade Control Laws, including the failure or inability to obtain necessary licenses or qualify for license exceptions, could delay or prevent the development, production, export, import, and/or in-country transfer of our products and technology, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Failure by us, our employees, or others working on our behalf to comply with the applicable government policies and regulations could result in administrative, civil, or criminal liabilities, including fines, suspension, debarment from bidding for or performing government contracts, or suspension of our export privileges, which could have a material adverse effect on us.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following risk relates specifically to PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> business line:</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We will be subject to regulation in the United States for our less-lethal systems.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">While our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices are less-lethal (based on the kinetic energy of our projectiles), these are ordinarily classified as a form of firearm under the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (&#8220;ATF&#8221;) rules and regulations because we use pyrotechnic based primers in our proprietary cartridges. As a firearm, a determination as to whether or not it is a &#8220;destructive device&#8221; is also necessary. We have self-classified our .67 caliber PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> single shot device as not only a firearm, but a &#8220;destructive device&#8221; pending a determination by the ATF which is expected before the end of Fiscal 2025 we intend to continue this self-classification. There is no assurance that the ATF will classify it differently, which could result in a delay the commencement of sales to civilian customers. Accordingly, this could also adversely affect our future revenues and related results of operations, business, prospects, and financial condition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Because our business model relies on outsourced production, we have no plans of becoming a firearm manufacturer in the United States but rather to continue to partner with a federal firearms license ("FFL") manufacturer for the production and distribution of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products. Accordingly, post commercialization in the United States the burden to comply with ATF rules and regulations applicable to the manufacturing and distribution process will be with our FFL business partners. Our primary risk of governmental interruption of manufacturing and distribution therefore lies within the operations and attendant internal control environment of our FFL business partners.&#160;</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Furthermore, with respect to transfers to end users (government, military, or consumer), the obligation to comply with ATF rules and regulations and any applicable state laws resides with the downstream FFL wholesaler/distributor/retailer and any penalties levied upon such parties do not flow up the distribution chain.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">See <i>Business Overview - Government Regulations</i> - <i>Less-Lethal</i> for a summary of relevant regulation in the United States for our less-lethal business line.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following risks apply to all business lines:</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Rapid technological development could result in obsolescence or short product life cycles of our products.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The markets for our products are characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards, which could result in product obsolescence or short product life cycles. Accordingly, our success is dependent upon our ability to anticipate technological changes in the industries we serve and to successfully identify, obtain, develop and market new products that satisfy evolving industry requirements. There can be no assurance that we will successfully develop new products or enhance and improve our existing products or that any new products and enhanced and improved existing products will achieve market acceptance. Further, there can be no assurance that competitors will not market products that have perceived advantages over our products, or which render the products currently sold by us obsolete or less marketable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We must commit significant resources to developing, testing and demonstrating new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. To remain competitive, we may be required to invest significantly greater resources than currently anticipated in R&amp;D and product enhancement efforts, and result in increased operating expenses.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The industry for military and security forces and personal defense is highly competitive and composed of many domestic and foreign companies. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience substantial competition from numerous competitors whom we expect to continue to improve their products and technologies. Competitors may announce and introduce new products, services or enhancements that better meet the needs of end-users or changing industry standards, or achieve greater market acceptance due to pricing, sales channels or other factors. With substantially greater financial resources and operating scale than we do currently, certain competitors may be able to respond more quickly than us to changes in end-user requirements and devote greater resources to the enhancement, promotion and sale of their products. Such competition could adversely affect our ability to win new contracts and sales.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Since we operate in evolving markets, our business and future prospects may be difficult to evaluate.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our technological solutions are in new and rapidly evolving markets. The military, civilian public safety, professional and personal defense markets we target are in early stages of customer adoption. Accordingly, our business and future prospects may be difficult to evaluate. We cannot accurately predict the extent to which demand for our products and services will develop and/or increase, if at all. The challenges, risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in rapidly evolving markets could impact our ability to do the following:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If we fail to address these and other challenges, risks and uncertainties successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially harmed.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Uncertainty related to exportation could limit our operations in the future.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We must comply with Canadian federal and provincial laws regulating the export of our products. In some cases, explicit authorization from the Canadian government is needed to export certain products. The export regulations and the governing policies applicable to our business are subject to change. We cannot provide assurance that such export authorizations will be available for our products in the future. To date, compliance with these laws has not significantly limited our operations but could significantly limit them in the future. Noncompliance with applicable export regulations could potentially expose us to fines, penalties and sanctions. If we cannot obtain required government approvals under applicable regulations, we may not be able to sell our products in certain international jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Global economic turmoil and regional economic conditions in the United States could adversely affect our business.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Global economic turmoil may cause a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, levels of intervention from the United States federal government and other foreign governments, decreased consumer confidence, overall slower economic activity, and extreme volatility in credit, equity, and fixed income markets. A decrease in economic activity in the United States or in other regions of the world in which we do business could adversely affect demand for our products, thus reducing our revenues and earnings. A decline in economic conditions could reduce sales of our products.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We face substantial capital requirements and financial risk.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To be successful, our business requires a substantial investment of capital. The production, acquisition, and distribution of proprietary technology for game-changing applications in the military and security forces and personal defense markets require substantial capital. A significant amount of time may elapse between our expenditure of funds and the receipt of revenues. This may require a significant portion of funds from equity, credit, and other financing sources to fund the business. There can be no assurance that these arrangements will continue to be successfully implemented or will not be subject to substantial financial risks relating to the production, acquisition, and distribution of proprietary technology for game-changing applications in the military and security forces and personal defense markets. In addition, if demand increases through internal growth or acquisition, there may be an increase to overhead and/or larger up-front payments for production and, consequently, these increases bear greater financial risks. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may require additional capital which may result in dilution to existing shareholders.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may need to engage in additional equity or debt financings to secure additional funds to fund our working capital requirement and business growth. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of the Common Shares. Any debt financing secured by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which might make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We can provide no assurance that sufficient debt or equity financing will be available on reasonable terms or at all to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges and failure to obtain sufficient debt or equity financing when required could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Over the short-term, we expect to incur operating losses and generate negative cash flow until we can produce sufficient revenues to cover our costs. We may never become profitable. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase our profitability in the future. There are substantial uncertainties associated with our ability to achieving and sustaining profitability. We expect our current cash position will be reduced due to future operating losses and working capital requirements, and we cannot provide certainty as to how long our cash position will last or that we will be able to access additional capital if and when necessary.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Exercise of options or warrants or vesting of restricted stock units (&#8220;<b>RSUs</b>&#8221;) will have a dilutive effect on your percentage ownership and will result in a dilution of your voting power and an increase in the number of Common Shares eligible for future resale in the public market, which may negatively impact the trading price of our Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We may need to divest assets if there is insufficient capital.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If sufficient capital is not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, eliminate or divest one or more of our assets or products, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, prospects, or results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We have broad discretion over the use of net proceeds from future capital raises.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We will have broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from any future capital raises. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of such proceeds, the ultimate use might vary substantially from the planned use. Investors may not agree with how we allocate or spend the proceeds from future capital raises. We may pursue collaborations that ultimately do not result in an increase in the market value of the Common Shares and that instead increase our losses.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Currency fluctuations may have a material effect on us.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Certain revenues and expenses of the Company are expected to be generated in U.S. dollars, and therefore may be exposed to significant currency exchange fluctuations. Recent events in the global financial markets have been coupled with increased volatility in the currency markets. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and operating results. The Company may, in the future, establish a program to hedge a portion of its foreign currency exposure with the objective of minimizing the impact of adverse foreign currency exchange movements; however, there can be no assurance that such a program will effectively mitigate currency risks.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Unavailability of adequate director and officer insurance could make it difficult for us to retain and attract qualified directors and could also impact our liquidity.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have directors and officers liability ("D&amp;O") insurance we believe to be adequate to cover risk exposure for us and our directors and officers, who we indemnify to the full extent permitted by law, there is no guaranty that such coverage will be adequate in the event of litigation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our coverage needs for D&amp;O insurance may change or increase in the future for various reasons including changes in our market capitalization, changes in trading volume or changes in the listing rules of exchanges or marketplaces on which our securities may trade from time to time. There is no guaranty that such coverage will be available or available at reasonable rates. While we have obtained new D&amp;O insurance before completing the Nasdaq listing and may need to increase our D&amp;O coverage as needed in the future, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so at reasonable rates or at all, or in amounts adequate to cover expenses and liability should litigation occur. Without adequate D&amp;O insurance, the costs of litigation including amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors should they be subject to legal action based on their service to us could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Further, if we are unable to obtain adequate D&amp;O insurance in the future for any reason, we may have difficulty retaining and attracting talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business, and may be unable to list our Common Shares on a national exchange in the United States, which could impact the liquidity and value of our stock.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our insurance policies may be inadequate to fully protect us from material judgments and expenses.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We require insurance coverage for a number of risks, including business interruption, environmental matters and contamination, personal injury and property damage as well as general aviation liability coverage. Although we maintain insurance policies, we cannot provide assurance that this insurance will be adequate to protect us from all material judgments and expenses related to potential future claims or that these levels of insurance will be available in the future at economical prices or at all. A successful product liability claim could result in substantial costs to us. If insurance coverage is unavailable or insufficient to cover any such claims, our financial resources, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Even if we are fully insured as it relates to a claim, the claim could nevertheless diminish our brand and divert management's attention and resources, which could have a negative impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Risks Relating to the Ownership of our Securities</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>An investment in our securities involves significant risks.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business and operations and cause the trading price of our securities to decline. If any of the following or other risks occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and security holders could lose all or part of their investment. There is no assurance that risk management steps taken will avoid future loss due to the occurrence of the risks described below or other unforeseen risks.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our Common Shares may experience extreme stock price volatility unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Common Shares.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Recently, there have been instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and strong stock price volatility in equity securities of issuers that are similarly situated to us. As a relatively small-capitalization company with relatively small public float, we may experience greater stock price volatility, extreme price run-ups, lower trading volume and less liquidity than large-capitalization companies. In particular, our Common Shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, low volumes of trades and large spreads in bid and ask prices. Such volatility, including any stock-run up, may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, if the trading volumes of our Common Shares are low, persons buying or selling in relatively small quantities may easily influence prices of our Common Shares. This low volume of trades could also cause the price of our Common Shares to fluctuate greatly, with large percentage changes in price occurring in any trading day session. Holders of our Common Shares may also not be able to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to low volume trading. If high spreads between the bid and ask prices of our Common Shares exist at the time of a purchase, the stock would have to appreciate substantially on a relative percentage basis for an investor to recoup their investment. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions may also adversely affect the market price of our Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our Common Shares. A volatile market price of our Common Shares also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional shares of Common Shares or other securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>The market price of our securities may be volatile.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The market price for our securities may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations; (ii) recommendations by securities research analysts; (iii) changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other issuers that investors deem comparable to us; (iv) departure of executive officers or other key personnel; (v) issuances or anticipated issuances of additional Common Shares; (vi) significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving us or our competitors; and (vii) news reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes and other related issues in our industry or target markets.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Financial markets have historically experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of public entities and that have, in many cases, been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such entities. Accordingly, the market price of our securities may decline even if our operating results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue for a protracted period of time, the trading price of the Common Shares may be materially adversely affected.</p>

Additionally, the warrants issued on December 9, 2022 in the public offering in the United States (the &#8220;U.S. IPO Warrants&#8221;) are listed on the Nasdaq and the TSXV.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are subject to the requirements of SOX. Section 404 of SOX ("Section 404") requires companies subject to the reporting requirements of United States securities laws to complete a comprehensive evaluation of their internal controls over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures and our management will be required to assess and issue a report concerning our internal controls over financial reporting. Pursuant to the JOBS Act, as amended, we are classified as an "emerging growth company." Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies are exempt from certain reporting requirements, including the independent auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of SOX. Under this exemption, our independent auditor is not be required to attest to and report on management's assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting during a five year transition period, except in the event this is accelerated if we lose our status as an "emerging growth company". We will need to prepare for compliance with Section 404 by strengthening, assessing and testing our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. However, the continuous process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404 is complicated and time-consuming. Furthermore, we believe that our business will grow both domestically and internationally, organically and through acquisitions, in which case our internal controls will become more complex and will require significantly more resources and attention to ensure our internal controls remain effective overall. During the course of our testing, management may identify material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, which may not be remedied in a timely manner to meet the deadline imposed by SOX. If management cannot favorably assess the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies material weaknesses in our internal controls, investor confidence in our financial results may weaken, and the market price of our securities may suffer.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Risk Related to Our Securities </b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>If the Company were to constitute a "passive foreign investment company" or "PFIC", adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences may result for U.S. investors.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The&#160;Company believes that it was not a PFIC for its most recently completed tax year. Based on current business plans and financial expectations, the Company expects that it likely will not be a PFIC for its current tax year. The Company&#8217;s PFIC classification for its current or future tax years may depend on, among other things, how quickly the Company may raise cash raised pursuant to this Offering, the manner in which, and how quickly, the Company utilizes its cash on hand and the cash proceeds received from this Offering, as well as on changes in the market value of its Common Shares. Whether the Company is a PFIC for any taxable year will also depend on the composition of its income and the composition, nature and value of its assets from time to time (including the value of its goodwill, which may be determined by reference to the value of the Common Shares, which could fluctuate). &#160;Additionally, the analysis depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of the Company as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested.&#160; PFIC classification is fundamentally factual in nature, generally cannot be determined until the close of the tax year in question, and is determined annually.&#160; Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Company has never been, is not, and will not become a PFIC for any tax year during which U.S. Holders hold Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, or &#8220;Warrant Shares&#8221; (as defined below under the heading &#8220;&#8212; <i>Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations</i>&#8221;). If the Company is a PFIC for any year during a U.S. taxpayer&#8217;s holding period of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, or Warrant Shares, then such U.S. taxpayer generally will be required to treat any gain realized upon a disposition of, or any so-called &#8220;excess distribution&#8221; received on, its Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, or Warrant Shares, as applicable, as ordinary income, and to pay an interest charge on a portion of such gain or distribution. In certain circumstances, the sum of the tax and the interest charge may exceed the total amount of proceeds realized on the disposition, or the amount of excess distribution received, by the U.S. taxpayer. Subject to certain limitations, these tax consequences may be mitigated if a U.S. taxpayer makes a timely and effective QEF Election (as defined below under the heading &#8220;&#8212;<i>Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations</i>&#8221;) or a Mark-to-Market Election (as defined below under the heading &#8220;&#8212;<i>Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations</i>&#8221;). U.S. taxpayers should be aware that, for each tax year, if any, that the Company is a PFIC, the Company can provide no assurances that it will satisfy the record-keeping requirements of a PFIC, or that it will make available to U.S. Holders the information such U.S. Holders require to make a QEF Election with respect to the Company or any subsidiary that also is classified as a PFIC. Accordingly, prospective investors should assume that a QEF Election will not be available. A U.S. taxpayer that makes the Mark-to-Market Election with respect to the Common Shares generally must include as ordinary income each year the excess of the fair market value of the Common Shares over the taxpayer&#8217;s adjusted tax basis therein. A Mark-to-Market Election will generally not be available with respect to the Pre-funded Warrants or with respect to the Warrants. This paragraph is qualified in its entirety by the discussion below under the heading &#8220;&#8212;<i>Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations &#8212; Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules</i>.&#8221; Each potential investor who is a U.S. taxpayer should consult its own tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of the PFIC rules and the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants and Warrant Shares, as applicable.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Changes to U.S. tax laws (which changes may have retroactive application) could adversely affect the Company or holders of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, and Warrant Shares. In recent years, many changes to U.S. federal income tax laws have been proposed and made, and additional changes to U.S. federal income tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the future.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The U.S. Congress is currently considering numerous items of legislation which may be enacted prospectively or with retroactive effect, which legislation could adversely impact the Company&#8217;s financial performance and the value of the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, and Warrant Shares. Additionally, states in which the Company operates or owns assets may impose new or increased taxes. If enacted, most of the proposals would be effective for the current or later years. The proposed legislation remains subject to change, and its impact on the Company and purchasers of the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrants Shares is uncertain.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Our status as a Foreign Private Issuer under United States Securities Laws.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are a "foreign private issuer", under applicable United States federal securities laws, and are, therefore, not subject to the same requirements that are imposed upon United States domestic issuers by the SEC. Under the Exchange Act, we are subject to reporting obligations that, in certain respects, are less detailed and less frequent than those of United States domestic reporting companies. As a result, we do not file the same reports that a United States domestic issuer would file with the SEC, although we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC the continuous disclosure documents that we are required to file in Canada under Canadian securities laws. In addition, our officers, directors, and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Therefore, our shareholders may not know on as timely a basis when our officers, directors and principal shareholders purchase or sell Common Shares, as the reporting periods under the corresponding Canadian insider reporting requirements are longer.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements. We are also exempt from Regulation FD, which prohibits issuers from making selective disclosures of material non-public information. While we comply with the corresponding requirements relating to proxy statements and disclosure of material non-public information under Canadian securities laws, these requirements differ from those under the Exchange Act and Regulation FD and shareholders should not expect to receive the same information at the same time as such information is provided by United States domestic companies. In addition, we may not be required under the Exchange Act to file annual and quarterly reports with the SEC as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In order to maintain our status as a foreign private issuer, a majority of the Common Shares must be either directly or indirectly owned by non-residents of the United States unless we satisfy one of the additional requirements necessary to preserve this status. We may in the future lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our Common Shares are held in the United States and if we fail to meet the additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of our foreign private issuer status. The regulatory and compliance costs under United States federal securities laws as a United States domestic issuer may be significantly more than the costs incurred as a Canadian foreign private issuer using the standard foreign form. If we are not a foreign private issuer, we would not be eligible to use the foreign issuer forms and would be required to file periodic and current reports and registration statements on United States domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a foreign private issuer whose securities are listed on Nasdaq, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. We follow the TSXV listing rules in respect of private placements instead of Nasdaq requirements to obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events (such as issuances that will result in a change of control, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a 20% or greater interest in us and certain acquisitions of the stock or assets of another company) and the minimum quorum requirement for a shareholders meeting. Under Nasdaq listing rules, the required minimum quorum for a shareholders meeting is 33 1/3% of the outstanding Common Shares. Under Canadian law and pursuant to our notice of articles, a quorum shall be present at a shareholder meeting if two or more holders of Common Shares representing at least 5% of the total number of voting rights attaching to the said Common Shares entitled to be voted at the meeting are present or represented by proxy. Accordingly, our shareholders may not be afforded the same protection as provided under Nasdaq corporate governance rules for domestic issuers.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>We are an emerging growth company and rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements which may make our Common Shares less attractive to investors.</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in section 3(a) of the Exchange Act (as amended by the JOBS Act, enacted on April 5, 2012), and we will continue to qualify as an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (a) the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of USD$1,235,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every five years by the SEC) or more; (b) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (c) the date on which we have, during the previous three year period, issued more than USD$1,000,000,000 in non-convertible debt; and (d) the date on which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer", as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. We will qualify as a large accelerated filer (and would cease to be an emerging growth company) at such time when on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter of such year the aggregate worldwide market value of its common equity held by non-affiliates will be USD$700,000,000 or more.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted to and intend to rely upon exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404. We cannot predict whether investors will find our Common Shares or warrants less attractive because we rely upon certain of these exemptions. If some investors find our Common Shares or warrants less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the Common Shares or warrants and the price per Common Share and warrant may be more volatile. On the other hand, if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we would be required to divert additional management time and attention from our development and other business activities and incur increased legal and financial costs to comply with the additional associated reporting requirements, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b><i>The liquidity of our Common Shares may be decreased as a result of the 2024 and 2025 Reverse Split.</i></b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 23, 2024, we effected a one for ten (1-for-10) reverse stock split of our Common Shares (the &#8220;<b>2024 Reverse Split</b>&#8221;). Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on October 23, 2024, received one issued and outstanding post-reverse split Common Share of the Company in exchange for 10 outstanding pre-reverse split common Shares of the Company.&#160; No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2024 Reverse Split.&#160; All fractional shares created by the 2024 Reverse Split were rounded to the nearest whole number of Common Shares, with any fractional interest representing 0.5 or more Common Shares entitling holders thereof to receive one whole Common Share.&#160; Effective on the date of the 2024 Reverse Split, our outstanding securities that are convertible or exercisable into Common Shares were proportionately adjusted to reflect the 2024 Reverse Split in accordance with each security&#8217;s terms with the exception of warrants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On April 23, 2025 and on April 24, 2025, on the Nasdaq and TSXV respectively, we effected a one for twenty-one (1-for-21) reverse stock split of our Common Shares (the &#8220;<b>2025 Reverse Split</b>&#8221;). Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on April 23, 2025 and April 24, 2025, received one issued and outstanding post-reverse split Common Share of the Company in exchange for 21 outstanding pre-reverse split Common Shares of the Company.&#160; No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2025 Reverse Split.&#160; All fractional shares created by the 2025 Reverse Split were rounded to the nearest whole number of Common Shares, with any fractional interest representing 0.5 or more Common Shares entitling holders thereof to receive one whole Common Share.&#160; Effective on the date of the 2025 Reverse Split, our outstanding securities that are convertible or exercisable into Common Shares were proportionately adjusted to reflect the 2025 Reverse Split in accordance such securities terms with the exception of warrants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The liquidity of the Common Shares may be affected adversely by the 2024 and 2025 Reverse Split given the reduced number of shares that are now outstanding, especially if the market price of our Common Shares does not increase as a result of the 2024 or 2025 Reverse Split. In addition, the 2024 and 2025 Reverse Split may increase the number of shareholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares) of our Common Shares, creating the potential for such shareholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting such sales.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Although we believe that a higher market price of our Common Shares may help generate greater or broader investor interest, there can be no assurance that our increased share price following the 2024 or 2025 Reverse Split will actually attract new investors, including institutional investors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market price of our Common Shares will satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. As a result, the trading liquidity of our Common Shares may not necessarily improve.</p>

Based on our observation, ATAK is becoming the de facto standard in the United States, Canada, and North Atlantic Treaty Organization ("<b>NATO</b>") for software based situational awareness and as a command and control battle management application in the dismounted domain. While the base software is United States Government owned and is available at no cost, being able to develop specific plug-ins and secure tactical networks is beyond the capacity of most user organizations. We have the experience and expertise to offer ATAK integration and networking services to prospective clients.</p>

These solutions solve critical challenges for law enforcement, fire, emergency response, search and rescue, and natural disaster management, all of whom require networked situational awareness in real time to understand, decide, and act faster and more effectively in response to a critical incident. When responders are facing a public emergency, they need information quickly. Whether it is a wildfire, active shooter scenario or a natural disaster, they need to know what they're walking into and where their resources are located. They also need to communicate and collaborate in real-time - across teams and information sources and often across departments.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Less-Lethal</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">According to Fact.MR: <i>Less-Lethal Weapons Market,</i> April 2023, the global less-lethal weapons market was approximately USD$4.95 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD$7.6 billion in 2028 (a 4.3% compound annual growth rate). We plan to target the following two markets, with an initial focus in the United States:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;"><i>Professional market:</i></li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our main focus in the short-term is the professional market in the United States and overseas as these represent a major opportunity for our less-lethal security products. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, in the United States there are nearly 796,800 police officers, detectives and criminal investigators. Cases involving police shootings and deaths related to the use of conductive energy devices and less-lethal shotgun ammunition have increased in the United States. According to The Washington Post, there have been over 10,329 fatal police shootings in the United States since 2015 involving police.</p>
    <div id="footer_page_47">

    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_48"></a>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A Reuters report estimates that at least 1,000 people have died as a result of being stunned by conductive energy devices in the United States. In over 150 of those deaths, the conductive energy device was determined to be a cause or a contributing factor.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There are several other security-related occupations which we believe are potential customers for our less-lethal products. These include 1.2 million security guards, 387,500 corrections officers and 38,800 private detectives, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. We believe that our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products could play a meaningful role in addressing the tragic increase in school shooting events. According to the Naval Postgraduate School's Center for Homeland Defense and Security, there have been approximately 460 shooting events in K-12 schools during the last five years. We believe our less-lethal security products offer school personnel important options to create a tactical advantage in school shootings without using lethal firearms.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">According to the U.S. Department of Education, there are over 132,000 elementary and secondary schools and nearly 6,000 colleges and universities in the United States. We believe there is an opportunity to utilize our products to enhance school safety.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Other public spaces such as grocery stores, houses of worship, bars and nightclubs, concert venues, sporting arenas and public transportation centers are also confronted with increased security challenges. Each of these locations represents an opportunity for us as they could improve security without introducing lethal firearms into crowded civilian environments by equipping their employees and security personnel with our less-lethal products.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Other market opportunities that we intend to further explore include the international professional market, realistic force-on-force training for military and police, realistic high-action gaming and animal control, both in the United States and internationally.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The principal market for the OPS<sup>TM</sup> product line of less-lethal systems is law enforcement, primarily in Canada and United States.</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;"><i>Consumer market:</i></li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">According to Pew Research Center, nearly a third of U.S. adults say they personally own a gun based on 2023 survey data. We believe our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices will offer gun owners and members of their households a safer, personal defense option, without the risk of loss of human life.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In&#160;addition to personal defense, we believe we have an opportunity to disrupt the recreational market &#8211; specifically for paintball guns, which are air-based devices rather than cartridge-based (see <i>Business Overview &#8211; Competitive Conditions</i>). According to market research by Fact.MR, published by Yahoo Finance, the paintball gun market size in the United States was $127.21 million in 2023 and projected to be $403.5 million by 2033.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Digitization</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The principal market for our digitization business lines is primarily among military and public safety agencies in countries that are members of NATO, as well as Australia and New Zealand. As the largest purchaser and user of military and public safety products, the United States is our primary focus, followed by the other NATO member countries, and to a lesser extent, the Middle East and Asia.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition to increased military spending in the United States and other members of NATO, another important trend that we have observed is an increase in funding within the military for projects related to precision munitions for weapons already in use by the military (legacy weapons) to further enhance survivability of soldiers and their operational effectiveness. Our TASCS Integrated Fires Module (IFM) products are expected to benefit from these trends by transforming "dumb" legacy weapons into "smart" weapons (with better accuracy) and integration into military "Joint Fires" systems.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For our CIMS offering, our principal market is public safety agencies, primarily in Canada and United States. Public safety agencies across the United States are seeking to implement digital solutions that can improve responder safety and incident management. According to Accenture, digital transformation presents one of the biggest challenges for public safety agencies. Globally, the public safety and security market was USD$435 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD$868 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 10.4%, according to Fortune Business Insights. We have evolved a CIMS system under a SaaS model, branded "KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup>" to appeal to public safety agencies who may find it attractive to adopt this as a service rather than purchase hardware and software.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The major factors fueling the public safety market include rising instances of mass shooting, natural disasters, terrorist activities and security breaches as well as increasing law enforcement requirements for public safety and investments in public safety measures for smart cities.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Counter Threat</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our BLDS product was developed expressly to address the health and safety threats from weaponized and/or targeting laser devices utilized by adversaries in the field and to aid in the prevention of friendly fire incidents.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Phantom product was developed to provide additional protection to friendly forces by confusing adversaries' Electronic Warfare operators, preventing them from targeting our forces.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We also continue to explore potential application of our technologies to the counter unmanned aircraft system ("<b>C-UAS</b>") market. The rapid proliferation of small hostile drones continues to be a growing worldwide problem for military forces, sensitive facilities, and public security agencies. Most counter-drone systems are electronic, designed to detect, identify, track and, if possible, disrupt the communications protocols of drones to prevent completion of their mission. Increasingly, however, drones are being developed by adversaries that are difficult or impossible to disrupt electronically.&#160; Military and Homeland Security agencies are therefore seeking alternatives for stopping drones kinetically but without collateral damage.&#160; We have been conferring with various C-UAS vendors regarding a system for the domestic market that can be made interoperable with our digitization offerings to provide public safety agency a full solution.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Competitive Conditions</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Less-Lethal</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We expect our competition for less-lethal PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products will primarily be manufacturers of:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">handheld CO2-powered or air powered launchers of chemical irritant projectiles, including Byrna Technologies Inc. (which sells products under the Byrna&#174; HD brand), United Tactical Systems, LLC (which sells products under the PepperBall brand), and FN Herstal;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">conductive energy devices, including Axon Enterprises, Inc. (which sells the TASER device); and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">remote restraint devices, including Wrap Technologies Inc.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our competitive advantage is principally our proprietary system consisting of:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">a low energy cartridge system with a cartridge casing that generates spin to a projectile, a far more reliable platform than air-based launchers;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">inexpensive firing platforms in any design that fire only our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> cartridges;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">different payloads in the projectile for various applications;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">velocities and muzzle energy far below the "lethal" threshold;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; padding-left: 8.4pt; text-align: justify;">simple internal mechanisms with few components simplifying the manufacturing process; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; padding-left: 8.4pt; text-align: justify;">a patented system whereby the cartridge casing generates spin to a projectile to stabilize it for accuracy over distance.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Chairman was the inventor of PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup>. He was previously the founder of Simunition<sup>TM</sup>, a manufacturer of less-lethal training ammunition, since sold to General Dynamics. Further, he was also the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of United Tactical Systems, LLC, a company offering public-safety products for law enforcement, military and personal defense under the PepperBall<sup>TM</sup> brand. Accordingly, he brings a wealth of market knowledge to us. Additionally, we have staff with many years of experience in firearms development and manufacturing. In August 2021, we also hired a senior Technical Manager with over 17 years of firearms manufacturing experience. He previously held senior roles at Colt Canada including most recently R&amp;D Manager and Product Support Engineering. While we do not build lethal firearms, this experience is very relevant for building our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> business.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Many air-powered (CO2-powered) devices are complex and less reliable, specifically:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">ambient temperature causes performance to vary, especially in colder weather;</li>

        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">such devices entail long logistics tails (for example, heavy air tanks, compressors and spare parts).</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("<b>USPO</b>") for our proprietary cartridge-based firing system was approved and the patent issued effective October 31, 2023.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup>'s product line, our primary competitors are the following:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 32.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">DEFTEC / Safariland's 40 mm LTM launchers; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 32.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">ALS (a Pacem Defense Company)'s single shot 37mm and 40mm launchers and 40mm multi-shot launchers.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A further market advantage is the access to the law enforcement market through our ownership of ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup>, and the strength of its brand, which has been selling less-lethal systems to law enforcement agencies internationally for over 30 years. As a result of our acquisition of Police Ordnance, we believe there are synergies between our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> and ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> products such as access to law enforcement market for PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup>, providing a low-energy cartridge for ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> launchers and combining facilities and engineering.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have developed a 40mm ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> baton cartridge which we believe has the superior performance of the 37 mm cartridge and is designed to work in most third-party 40mm launchers. We are currently in the process of introducing this to selected law enforcement tactical teams for test and evaluation, with plans for volume production and roll-out to the market in Fiscal 2025.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Digitization and Counter-Threat</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our competition for digitization and counter threat business lines is primarily:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">R&amp;D labs funded by the U.S. Department of Defense for developing systems like TASCS;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Fabrique Nationale Herstal S.A. for their remote weapon stations (although these do not offer high angular resolution like TASCS); and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">known developers of electronic decoy systems including Motorola (Tactical TV Decoys), Synchopated Engineering (Mockingbird RF Signal Emulator), and CACI Systemware (MAGPIE).</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are currently not aware of any major direct competitors for the combination of capabilities that our BLDS technology will bring apart from legacy detection systems that provide very basic detection.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our competitive advantage is the significant experience that we have in soldier systems (which we consider to be any device that a soldier carries onto the battlefield, ranging from a communications device to a sensor), weapons, and sensor fields. Our expertise in the field of networked weapons has been recognized by the United States military who requested that we participate in the NATO working group tasked with developing standards and requirements for these types of networked weapons.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are also not aware of any major direct competitors for our CIMS (KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup> as a service offering (SaaS).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Seasonality</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We do not expect our less-lethal business line will be exposed to seasonality. While our Digitization and Counter-Threat business lines may be affected by national military budgetary cycles, as well as federal, state and local government spending, we expect the various customers having different spending cycles will mitigate our potential cyclicality exposure.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Less-Lethal</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have outsourced the engineering work for the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices to a third party, with oversight by us. Additionally, we plan to rely upon strategic alliances with OEMs for the manufacturing and distribution of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> launchers, components are outsourced to various suppliers and assembled by an outsourced manufacturer.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Today, we are not aware of material sourcing issues or pricing volatility of raw materials, except for price volatility for certain components to manufacture ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> ammunition that will be required for our less-lethal business line (see <i>Risk Factors - We Are Dependent on Key Suppliers for our ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> Product Line).</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Digitization and Counter-Threat</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Today we have assembled a team of engineers, technicians and advisors that have significant experience in soldier systems (which we consider to be any device that a soldier carries onto the battlefield, ranging from a communications device to a sensor), weapons, and sensor fields. It is this combination of disparate knowledge sets that enables us to integrate and develop innovative solutions. We leverage from this same pool of talent to deploy our Lightning&#8482; SaaS product for the public safety market.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">All current product development is done at our facility in Ottawa (see <i>Property, Plant and Equipment</i>). For as long as market demand justifies a low rate of production quantities, we will internally produce these products. Once demand reaches quantities necessitating commercial-level production quantities, we will outsource our production to companies specifically suited to producing each particular product. We are not aware of any material regulatory approvals that are required for us to outsource production.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Less-Lethal</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Initially we plan to sell our PARA OPS&#8482; to the professional market which includes law enforcement agencies and then to the consumer market through an e-commerce store and a network of distributors. We plan to hire sales and marketing resources during 1H Fiscal 2025 for the commercialization of PARA OPS&#8482;.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> launchers, we plan to continue direct sales to law enforcement agencies, with marketing via tradeshows and social media/web-based.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As&#160;part of our marketing efforts, have attended or are planning to attend the following tradeshows to promote all DEFSEC products and services:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In February 2022, we retained the services of Orchid Advisors to assist us with the classification and ATF compliance for our PARA OPS&#8482; devices.&#160; Orchid Advisors is an FFL compliance solutions firm headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Based on Orchid Advisor's interpretation of the ATF rules and regulations, we have self-classified the .67 caliber version of the PARA OPS&#8482; devices as a "destructive device," providing us with the ability to go to market much sooner than waiting for ATF classification ruling. Under the ATF rules, a manufacturer must determine whether the device is a firearm and therefore be subject to ATF regulation and if it is a firearm whether it is subject to National Firearms Act of 1934 ("NFA") regulations.</p>
    <div id="footer_page_53">
        <p style="text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">47</p>

    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_54"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">To be considered a regulated firearm in the United States, the device must be: (i) a weapon that (ii) will or is designed to expel a projectile (iii) by the action of an explosive. Although primers in cartridges are exempt from control under the explosives regulations as administered by ATF, they are still considered an &#8220;explosive&#8221; for the purposes of the firearm definition.&#160; Because we use primers in the cartridges for our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices, we have decided to self-classify our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices as a form of firearm&#160;in the United States pending any different eventual classification by the ATF.&#160;The Company is working with the ATF to confirm the classification of PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For any device classified as a firearm in the United States, it must be determined whether an additional level of control is imposed by the NFA. Under NFA regulations, there are only two possible types of NFA firearm that PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> could be defined as: (1) a &#8220;any other weapon&#8221; (&#8220;AOW&#8221;) or (2) a &#8220;destructive device&#8221;.&#160; Sale of either of these to consumers is permissible but requires a lengthy approval process conducted by the ATF (the background check process on the consumer); whereas sale to law enforcement agencies, military bodies, or government agencies is a more expedient approval process (usually less than 7 days). Further, the AOW classification requires only a $5 transfer tax to consumers whereas a destructive device classification results in a $200 transfer tax to consumers (such tax being borne by the consumer). While our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> is less-lethal (the kinetic energy of our projectile is well below lethal threshold), we have determined that the current version of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices are &#8220;destructive devices&#8221; because the measurement of the bore of our device is currently in excess of the one-half inch in diameter, the maximum size for AOW.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Having self-classified the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> device as a firearm in the United States, and by virtue of its bore size meeting the definition of a &#8220;destructive device&#8221;, we expected initial revenues to come primarily from United States law enforcement agencies. However, the sales cycles are much shorter in the civilian market and we subsequently received further guidance indicating the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> device could potentially be classified not as a &#8220;destructive device&#8221; and as a result are in the process of obtaining a formal determination from the ATF on the classification. We expect to have their determination before the end of Fiscal 2025. Should the ATF determine that it is a firearm, we will resubmit for determination with a .49 caliber version of the cartridge to obtain a decision on whether it is considered a &#8220;destructive device&#8221;. This will not require any alteration to the launcher itself and we have already developed prototypes of the lower caliber cartridges for submission if necessary. &#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In July 2022, we entered into a consulting agreement with an FFL engineering firm, Bachstein Consulting LLC, in the United States to finalize the prototype for the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> single and multi-shot devices, including LRIP during Q1 Fiscal 2023. &#160;We continued to pursue development through Fiscal 2023 and the first half of Fiscal 2024 of a non-pyrotechnic energy actuator for PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> in conjunction with a smaller diameter cartridge and projectile which, together, we expected would result in a next-generation version of PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products that would be considered non-firearms in most jurisdictions. The distribution of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> in the United States will be done directly with FFL distributors/firearm dealers for civilian sales.&#160; Today, all 50 states of the United States allow civilians to own a firearm subject to the firearm laws of the state (which vary by state). Once launched we expect the sales of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> devices will position us well for significant recurring revenues through the sale of subsequent cartridges over the next 12 months (see <i>Risk Factors &#8211; A Significant Portion of Our Revenues Are Non-Recurring</i>).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the less-lethal ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> products, we maintain a firearm business license (the &#8220;Firearm Business License&#8221;) issued by the Chief Firearms Office of the Ontario Ministry of the Solicitor General and we are also registered under the Controlled Goods Program in Canada. For further information, see <i>Business Overview &#8211;</i> <i>Digitization and Counter Threat</i>. Additionally, we previously maintained a Federal Explosives License/Permit for the manufacturing of explosives and a FFL for manufacture and sale of destructive devices, both issued by the ATF in the United States, we abandoned these licenses in favor of Stateside outsourced production and handling by knowledgeable organizations who themselves hold the requisite licenses to maximize efficiency in the supply chain.&#160; All sales of our ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> launchers are made directly to law enforcement agencies and other eligible professional users.</p>

Any device such as the TASCS IFM or TASCS NORS must be developed and tested on the weapon platforms for which it is designed. The Shot Counter is designed to work on automatic weapons in military and police inventories. These types of weapons are classified as prohibited and are solely utilized in the development and testing of the product. Replica systems are utilized for static demonstrations, trade shows and other non-firing events.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We procure ammunition such as those required for mortars, grenade launchers and others weapon types to conduct testing and evaluation. On occasion, we may need to export ammunition in support of demonstrations.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In Canada, an individual or organization must register in the Controlled Goods Program with Public Services and Procurement Canada if they need to:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Economic Dependence</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As&#160;an early-stage company, the revenue stream in Fiscal 2021 for the TASCS system was concentrated on one United States military customer. We recognized 98.3% of the total revenue (USD$0.8 million) for this United States military customer during Fiscal 2021 (see <i>Operating and Financial Review and Prospects, Critical Accounting Estimates</i>).&#160; We delivered the remaining milestone and recognized the remaining 2.7% of the total revenue during the first quarter of Fiscal 2022. While we originally expected to receive follow-on orders for our TASCS IFM 81mm mortar system under multi-year &#8220;Joint Fires&#8221; programs we have not yet received any orders, and there is no assurance of such orders in the future.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Since&#160;September 30, 2021, we have further diversified our revenue base as a result of the Police Ordnance Acquisition.&#160; Additionally, on December 1, 2021, we entered into a master professional services agreement (the &#8220;<b>MPSA</b>&#8221;) with General Dynamics Mission System (&#8220;<b>GDMS</b>&#8221;) to support the development of digitization solutions for future Canadian land C41SR programs under Strong, Secure, Engaged: Canada&#8217;s Defence Policy. This includes TAK integration and other digitization services over 12 months. The MPSA serves as the master agreement and governs the basic terms and conditions for all future statements of work (&#8220;<b>SOW</b>&#8221;) but does not in itself give rise to financial rights or obligations for either GDMS or us nor does it ensure that a future SOW will be awarded. Accordingly, there are no material terms in the MPSA except for the termination provision. At its sole discretion, GDMS may terminate the MPSA and/or a SOW by written notice to us. Under such event, GDMS will be liable for work rendered or expenses incurred prior to the effective date of such termination for which payment has not been made to us.&#160; GDMS may also terminate the MPSA immediately in the event of default (as defined in the GDMS). Concurrently with entering in the MPSA, we entered into a SOW with GDMS for the first phase of the project which was delivered by the end of Q3 Fiscal 2022 and fully collected.&#160; GDMS accounted for 41% of our Fiscal 2022 consolidated revenue. During Q1 Fiscal 2023 we entered into another SOW with GDMS for USD$0.1 million, which we delivered by the end of the quarter. In Q4 2022 we entered into a three year contract with CounterCrisis Tech to provide support for the ground search and rescue (&#8220;GSAR&#8221;) program with Public Safety Canada. In Fiscal 2023 the GSAR revenue made up approximately 23% and 20% in Fiscal 2024 of total annual revenue. In Fiscal 2024, we began work on the DSEF and Land C4ISR contracts and they made up 36% and 8%, respectively, of total annual revenue in Fiscal 2024. With the commercial launch of PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> product line in Fiscal 2024 and continued product sales from the ARWEN<sup>&#174; </sup>launchers and ammunition, we anticipate our total consolidated revenue will continue to diversify with various customers, resulting in less dependence on limited customers to drive positive cash flows and profitability.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">DEFSEC was formed in April 2017. DEFSEC was founded to pursue advanced projects within the defense and security fields. We opened our offices in Ottawa, Ontario in May of 2017 and began development of what would become our core technology, TASCS. Our TASCS consists of a sensor package mounted to a soldier weapon and a display running a user interface program typically known as the Battlefield Management System (&#8220;<b>BMS</b>&#8221;).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Between May and September of 2017, we developed the first-generation prototype of the sensor package forming part of TASCS, combined with a basic BMS system. DEFSEC started to collaborate with a United States military drone supplier, AeroVironment, Inc. (&#8220;<b>AeroVironment</b>&#8221;).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In March 2018, we successfully integrated AeroVironment&#8217;s drone data feed into DEFSEC&#8217;s TASCS.</p>

In August 2019, we were in discussions with AeroVironment for a further contract to integrate our TASCS IFM with AeroVironment's Augmented Weapon Sight technology for the preproduction development of 60mm and 81mm mortar and machine gun mounts. This was delayed to April 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 1, 2019, we entered into an executive service agreement with DEFSEC Corporation ("<b>DEFSEC Corp</b>") in which its CEO, David Luxton, agreed to serve as our Executive Chairman (refer to <i>Compensation</i> for remuneration information).</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On September 17, 2020, DEFSEC completed the Qualifying Transaction with Foremost. The Amalgamation was structured as a three-cornered amalgamation and, as a result, the amalgamated corporation, named &#8220;KWESST Inc.&#8221;, became a wholly owned subsidiary of Foremost, which changed its name to &#8220;KWESST Micro Systems Inc.&#8221; Immediately following the completion of the Amalgamation, there were 2,807 Common Shares outstanding, and the former shareholders of KWESST Inc., along with the holders of the subscription receipts and convertible notes of KWESST Inc., owned approximately 97.8% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 4, 2021, we announced the introduction to market of our Phantom electronic battlefield decoy, including advanced negotiation with a global defense contractor to provide Phantom units as part of the contractor tender for armored vehicles to a large NATO customer. There were only two bidders that have qualified for this opportunity.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 13, 2021, we announced that we were accelerating the readiness of deployable and man-wearable BLDS for first deliveries available by end of Q1 Fiscal 2022, following military interest from a number of NATO land and Special Operation Forces at the signature European defense show, DSEI, which took place in London, UK, on September 13 to 18, 2021.&#160; While no deliveries took place in Fiscal 2022, on November 2, 2022, we won our first customer order of USD$330,000 from Nordic Defence &amp; Security AS of Oslo, Norway, a trading and consulting agency offering solutions for the army, navy and air force in addition to other professional users such as the police, fire departments and different security dependent organizations, for the provision of four BLDS to be delivered by May 2, 2023.&#160; These BLDS units were to be mounted and integrated on the new combat patrol vehicles for Norwegian Special Operating Forces (&#8220;<b>SOF</b>&#8221;) now in prototype build. Through this initial order, we are well positioned to supply a higher quantity of BLDS if the Norwegian SOF combat vehicle proceeds into full production. There is no assurance on timing or that we will receive additional orders for our BLDS from Norwegian SOF.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 12, 2021, we announced that General Dynamics Land Systems (&#8220;<b>GDLS</b>&#8221;) selected DEFSEC&#8217;s Phantom electronic battlefield decoy as part of its ongoing efforts to develop a next generation multi-million domain mobile capability at the tactical level. If GDLS wins the contract with their United States military customer, we have estimated the potential value for this contract to DEFSEC could be more than USD$40 million, depending on the number of Phantom units per military vehicle and final pricing based on volume. The United States military customer is expected to announce the winner of the tender for 400-500 next generation military vehicles in calendar 2023. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will be awarded this contract or if we are, what the value of such contract will be to DEFSEC.</p>

The Unsecured Loans bear interest at a rate of 9.0% per annum, compounded monthly and not in advance, and have a maturity of thirteen months, with DEFSEC having the option to repay the whole or any part of the Unsecured Loans, without penalty or premium, at any time prior to the close of business on the maturity date. The principal amount is due only at maturity.&#160; As part of the terms of the Unsecured Loans, we issued an aggregate of 68 bonus Common Shares to the lenders. These Common Shares were issued pursuant to prospectus exemptions of applicable Canadian securities laws and therefore subject to a four-month plus one day trading restriction.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On March 29, 2022, the Common Shares commenced trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the stock symbol &#8220;62U.&#8221; We believe this listing will provide us with the opportunity to further increase our investor base globally, improve our stock liquidity, and promote DEFSEC to the European financial markets.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Overview</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Since Fiscal 2024, we had some significant highlights to our operating results:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 1, 2024, we updated investors on the ramp-up of activity on our sub-contract to Thales Canada in support of the Canadian DND Land C4ISR (Land Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) series of contracts to modernize the Canadian Army's capabilities through advanced Land C4ISR systems program. DEFSEC was in various stages of completing its staffing with conditional offers accepted for all 16 positions on the program, representing an annualized revenue of approximately $3.3 million. The Company expects to continue to increase staffing, and related revenue, as future taskings are received. The Company&#8217;s maximum potential workshare under the Land C4ISR and DSEF (Directorate Land Command Systems Program Management Software Engineering Facility) remains approximately $48 million and $27 million for the initial contract periods of six and five years respectively.</p>
        </li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 10, 2024, we announced our plan to proceed with a consolidation of our outstanding Common Shares on the basis of ten (10) pre-consolidation shares for each one (1) post-consolidation share. The Company believed that the consolidation was in the best interests of shareholders as it allowed the Company to ensure continued compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirements.</p>
        </li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 21, 2024, we announced that, further to the Company's press release on October 10, 2024, the Company has received approval of the TSXV for the consolidation of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares on the basis of ten (10) pre-consolidation shares for each one (1) post-consolidation share.</p>
        </li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 23, 2024, we announced that our wholly-owned subsidiary, KWESST Inc., had entered into a receivables factoring agreement with a US-based global financing company. The facility provides up to CAD$250,000 advanced at a rate of 2.5% for the first thirty days and 1% for each ten days thereafter until receipt of funds from the receivable payee and is limited to a total of 20% of the value of the receivable funded. Funds are advanced at 80% up front of the face value of the receivable with a 20% fee deposit retained by the financing company until the amount funded is fully repaid, following which any balance remaining of the 20% fee deposit is returned to KWESST Inc. The agreement grants security against KWESST Inc.'s receivables and other assets for funds advanced by the financing company. The initial term is for 12 months and may be terminated within such term by KWESST Inc., subject to the payment of an early termination fee of 3% of the total limit of the facility.</p>
        </li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 23, 2024, we announced we had completed our plan to ramp up volume production of ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> cartridges, including the new 40mm baton round following successful characterization testing by a recognized ballistics laboratory. The ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> system is long-established in the law enforcement community and was designed as an alternative to lethal force for maintaining public order in the event of riots and civil unrest during protests and demonstrations. Historically, the Company has offered a 37mm cartridge that fires from its ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> launchers. In a move to expand the market for ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> branded products and to leverage the large installed base of third-party 40mm firing platforms, DEFSEC announced and showcased a new 40mm baton cartridge at the annual SHOT Show in January 2024. Live fire demonstrations at the SHOT Show Range Day and other events since then have demonstrated the notable performance of the new 40mm baton cartridge.</p>

Each pre-funded warrant was bundled with one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company. We also announced that the Company amended the terms of the outstanding pre-funded warrants issued on November 1, 2024, as part of the Company's best efforts public offering in the United States. The amendments revised the exercise price of the pre-funded warrant from USD$0.021 to CAD$0.0294 per Common Share, revised currency references from USD to CAD, and removed the ability for the holder to exercise the pre-funded warrant on a cashless basis. The foregoing amendments were agreed to by the holder of such pre-funded warrants pursuant to a pre-funded warrant amendment agreement.</p>

The Company was first notified by Nasdaq of its failure to maintain the minimum bid price requirement on May 16, 2024 and was given until November 12, 2024 to regain compliance. The Company did not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement during the first 180 calendar day period.

The placement agent warrants were immediately exercisable and entitle the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of CAD$24.36 (approximately US$17.157) per Common Share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the First Tranche.&#160;&#160;Due to investor interest, the Company increased the size of the offering in the Second Tranche with a confirmed order totaling approximately CAD$142,070 (approximately US$100,000).</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Q2 Fiscal 2025 net loss was $1.5 million compared to $3.5 million in Q2 Fiscal 2024. The decrease in net loss of $2.0 million is due primarily to a decrease in operating expenses of $1.1 million, an increase in other income of $0.9 million along with an increase in gross margin of $0.1 million. Q2 Fiscal 2025 EBITDA loss was $1.1 million, a decrease of $2.1 million over the comparable prior year period mainly due to a decrease in operating expenses of $1.1 million and an increase in the gain on the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $0.8 million which fluctuates depending on the Company's stock price.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Revenue</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total revenue increased by $0.8 million in Q2 Fiscal 2025 compared to Q2 Fiscal 2024, mainly due to an additional $0.8 million generated from the digitization business line. The increase is due to the significant ramp-up on the Land C4ISR contract beginning in Q1 Fiscal 2025.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Gross margin percentage decreased from 50% in Q2 Fiscal 2024 to 25% in Q2 Fiscal 2025 mainly due to unplanned extra effort expended in the quarter to close out a long-term project. The extra effort during this project directly benefited IP which is core to the KWESST Lightning<b><sup>TM</sup></b> project.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Outlook</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Management expects revenue to continue to increase with the ramp-up of its Canadian Government Defence programs.&#160; Management continues to work closely with industry partners and prime contractors on the outlook for growth.&#160; The Company also expects revenue to increase with the expected demand/future orders for the new ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> 40mm ammunition and PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products as well as the commercial launch of KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup>.</p>

    <p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt;">Total OPEX decreased by $1.1 million in Q2 Fiscal 2025 as compared to Q2 Fiscal 2024 due to the following factors:</p>

            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.6 million, primarily due to a decrease in professional fees due to a difference in timing on filings year over year, a reduction in insurance premiums as well as a decrease in travel and conference attendance;</p>

            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $0.1 million, due to a decrease in travel and conferences along with a decrease in consulting costs offset by increased headcount to reduce the reliance on consultants; and</p>

            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Research and development expenses decreased by $0.4 million, primarily due to a decrease in personnel costs along with a decrease in engineering costs related to the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products because the Company is now in the commercialization stage and planning for production as compared to product development costs being incurred in the comparative prior year period.</p>

The change in other income (expenses) was driven mainly by:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For Fiscal 2024, DEFSEC&#8217;s net loss was $7.4 million. Fiscal 2024 EBITDA loss was $6.0 million, a decrease of 20% over the comparable prior year period mainly due to an increase in revenue and gross profits from our digitization contracts combined with a decrease in operating expenses resulting from a reduction in consulting fees and investor relations costs year over year, and a reduction in G&amp;A costs due to the impairment charge on the Phantom intangible asset in Fiscal 2023 and decrease in general administrative expenditures year over year. The adjustments to EBITDA loss in Fiscal 2024 included the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, and a decrease in share issuance costs from the 2024 financing activities as compared to the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, and July 2023 Private Placement in Fiscal 2023. There were no stock options granted in Fiscal 2024, resulting in a reduction in stock-based compensation expense in Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023. The decrease in net financing costs in Fiscal 2024 over the comparable prior period is due to the costs related to the unsecured loans in Fiscal 2023 whereas the loans were repaid, and no such costs were incurred Fiscal 2024.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Revenue </i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total revenue increased by $0.3 million Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023, mainly due to an additional $0.2 million generated from our digitization business line and $0.1 million from our less-lethal business line (driven from the sale of ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> products).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">At September 30, 2024, our digitization business line consisted of the two governments contracts for the DSEF and Land C4ISR programs, along with the Red Cross and ongoing GSAR programs, which generated $1M in sales in Fiscal 2024 whereas the Fiscal 2023 $0.8M in sales was generated by the ongoing GSAR program, delivery of four BLDS units and GDMS contract for future military digitization development.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We expect revenue to increase with the commercial launch of KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup> which we expect to be in calendar 2025, with the expected demand/future orders for the new ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> 40mm ammunition and PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> products, as well as from the ramp-up of the Land C4ISR subcontract. Management continues to work with our industry partners to determine the outlook for ramp-up on the DSEF program.&#160; Although the temporary slow down from the prior year persists, the Company expects this to normalize with no material impact to the overall potential revenue over the life of the contract.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Gross Margin</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In Fiscal 2024, we earned $0.5 million or gross margin of 32.3%, compared to negative $0.2 million or gross margin of -15.5% in Fiscal 2023 mainly due to the cost of sales for the production and delivery of the BLDS units in Fiscal 2023 as well as onerous contracts and consultant fees in Fiscal 2023 that have since been eliminated.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We expect gross margin to continue to increase in Fiscal 2025 from the other product lines described above as well as continued ramp-up on the Canadian Government contracts.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Operating Expenses </i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total OPEX decreased by $1.6 million, or 14%, in Fiscal 2024 over Fiscal 2023 due to the following factors:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">G&amp;A decreased by $1 million, or 13%, primarily due the impairment charge on the Phantom intangible asset in Fiscal 2023 ($1.5 million) and decrease in general and administrative expenditures of $0.3 million, offset by an increase in personnel cost of $0.4 million due to an increase in corporate headcount, which was a significant factor in the Company remediating the material internal control weaknesses disclosed in the 2023 annual filings, and related compensation consistent with increased compliance requirements related to our TSX.V and Nasdaq listings, and an increase in depreciation from two additional right-of-use assets and capitalization of the ready-for-use LEC intangible asset in Fiscal 2024 of $0.4 million.</p>
        </li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">S&amp;M decreased by $1.5 million, or 49%, primarily due to a decrease in investor relations costs and related sales and marketing costs of $1.6 million, and a decrease in business development costs of $0.3 million, offset by an increase in personnel cost of $0.4 million mainly to promote our DEFSEC and ARWEN<sup>&#174;</sup> products.</p>

        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">R&amp;D increased by $0.8 million, or 51%, primarily due to the fact that the LEC has reached commercial feasibility, and any associated costs are no longer being capitalized, while it was still in the development stage in Fiscal 2023 of $0.5 million, an increase in personnel costs advancing the KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup> and BLDS projects in Fiscal 2024 ($0.8 million), and impairment charge on the write-off of obsolete inventory of $0.1 million, offset by a reduction in engineering and production related consulting fees compared to the comparable prior year period of $0.7 million.</p>

Under IFRS, we are required to remeasure the warrant liabilities at each reporting date until they are exercised or expired. They are remeasured due to the fact that the exercise price is different from the Company's functional currency, and they have a cashless exercise option which are two factors that determine the classification of these warrants as liabilities instead of equity instruments.</p>

The increase was primarily due to the proceeds from two financings in Q1 Fiscal 2025 and one in Q2 Fiscal 2025 along with a decrease in accounts payable and royalties payable. Current liabilities include warrant liabilities, a non-cash liability item (see Note 10 of the Q2 Fiscal 2025 FS). Excluding warrant liabilities, working capital would be $5.1 million (September 30, 2024 - negative $0.3 million). These warrant liabilities will be extinguished when the warrants are exercised or expired. If exercised, the proceeds will provide additional capital to fund future working capital requirements. There is no assurance that any warrants will be exercised.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total assets increased by $4.0 million from September 30, 2024, mainly due to an increase in cash of $4.2 million from three financings in the first six months of Fiscal 2025 and an increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million due to the digitization contracts and an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.2 million due to the timing of renewals, offset by a decrease in the unamortized value of non-current assets of $0.4 million, a decrease in right-of-use assets written off of $0.2 million and a decrease in the deferred financing costs recognized in Q2 Fiscal 2025 of $0.3 million.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total liabilities decreased by $1.4 million from September 30, 2024, mainly due to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.5 million due to the timing of payments to suppliers, a $0.2 million decrease in royalties payable due to an early repayment in Q1 Fiscal 2025 resulting in a $25,000 discount. The royalty payable is from the purchase of the LEC patents from a company owned by the Company's Chairman. There was also a decrease in warrant liabilities of $0.7 million due to the exercise of warrants and the fluctuation in the Company's stock.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><sup>(3)</sup><font style="width: 6.34pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><sup>Working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities.</sup></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our working capital was negative $1.1 million at September 30, 2024, a decrease of $1.6 million from September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the net operating loss for Fiscal 2024, offset by proceeds from three financing activities in Fiscal 2024. Current liabilities include warrant liabilities, a non-cash liability item (see Note 15 of the Fiscal 2024 audited consolidated financial statements). Excluding warrant liabilities, we would have working capital of negative $0.3 million. These warrant liabilities will be extinguished when the warrants are exercised or expired. If exercised, the proceeds will provide us with additional capital to fund our future working capital requirements. There is no assurance that any warrants will be exercised.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total assets decreased by $6.1 million from September 30, 2023, mainly due to a decrease in cash of $5.2 million and a $0.9 million decrease in the unamortized value of non-current assets.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Total liabilities decreased by $3.6 million from September 30, 2023, to $4.2 million at September 30, 2024, mainly due to the warrant liabilities. As at September 30, 2024, we had $0.8 million of warrant liabilities, a reduction of $3.5 million as a result of the remeasurement of the warrant liabilities, driven by a decrease in the underlying Common Share price at September 30, 2024 ($3.1 million), exercises of warrants throughout 2024 ($1.8 million), offset by the issuance of warrants from the April 2024 and August 2024 financings ($1.3 million).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Available Liquidity </b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that we always have sufficient liquidity to meet our liabilities as they come due. We regularly perform cash flow forecasts to ensure that we have sufficient cash to meet our operational needs while maintaining sufficient liquidity. At this time, we do not use any derivative financial instruments to hedge our currency risk.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 1, 2024, we closed a public offering pursuant to which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $4.9 million (USD$3.5 million), before underwriting and offering costs. On November 12, 2024, we closed a private placement pursuant to which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $3.4 million, before underwriting and offering costs. On February 21 and 25, 2025, we closed a private placement for which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $3.7 million, before underwriting and offering costs.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">At March 31, 2025, our cash position was $4.4 million, an increase of $4.2 million since September 30, 2024, primarily due to three financing activities of $12.0 million before underwriting and offering costs and proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $0.4 million, offset by the underwriting and offering costs of $3.2 million along with the cash used in operations of $4.9 million.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As an early-stage company, we have not yet reached significant revenue levels for most of our other products and have incurred significant losses and negative operating cash flows from inception that have primarily been funded from financing activities. Our ability to continue as a going concern and realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon closing timely additional sales orders, timely commercial launch of new products, and the ability to raise additional debt or equity financing, when required. There are various risks and uncertainties affecting our future financial position and our performance. However, we may require additional capital in the event we fail to implement our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and/or financial performance. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital as they are required in the future. Potential sources of capital may include additional equity and/or debt financings. On October 23, 2024, the Company entered into a receivable factoring agreement. The facility provides up to $250,000 advanced at a rate of 2.5% for the first thirty days and 1% for each ten days thereafter until receipt of funds from the receivable payee and limited to a total of 20% of the value of the receivable funded. Funds are advanced at 80% up front of the face value of the receivable with a 20% fee deposit retained by the financing company until the amount funded is fully repaid, following which any balance remaining of the 20% fee deposit is returned to KWESST Inc. The agreement grants security against KWESST Inc.'s receivables and other assets for funds advanced by the financing company. The initial term is for 12 months and may be terminated within the term by KWESST Inc. subject to the payment of an early termination fee of 3% of the total limit of the facility. In our view, the availability of capital will be affected by, among other things, capital market conditions, the success of our PARA OPS&#8482; system market development efforts, timing of winning new customer contracts, potential acquisitions, and other relevant considerations. In the event we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our existing shareholders will likely experience dilution, and any additional incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operational and financial covenants that could further restrict our operations. Any failure to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us or at all may require us to significantly change or curtail our current or planned operations in order to conserve cash until such time, if ever, that sufficient proceeds from operations are generated, and could result in us not being in a position to advance our commercialization strategy or take advantage of business opportunities.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Cash flow used in operating activities decreased by $5.0 million to $9.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to payments on overdue payables as well as unpaid voluntary deferred wages, consulting fees, and bonuses in Fiscal 2023 after the close of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering in December 2022, coupled with significant prepaid expenses including a retention bonus for our general manager of PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> (refundable in the event he voluntarily terminates prior to a specified date as set by us), compared to regular operating activities in Fiscal 2024, with no significant transactions.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Cash flow used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $1.3 million from the comparable period, mainly due to the Fiscal 2023 additional investment in the product development of our PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup>, coupled with additional LRIP equipment for PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup>, whereas investments in equipment in Fiscal 2024 related to IT infrastructure, laptops and office furniture to accommodate new hires for the ramp-up of the DSEF and Land C4ISR contracts.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our objective in managing our capital is to safeguard our ability to continue as a going concern and to sustain future development of the business. Our senior management is responsible for managing the capital through regular review of financial information to ensure sufficient resources are available to meet operating requirements and investments to support its growth strategy. Our Board is responsible for overseeing this process. From time to time, we could issue new Common Shares or debt to maintain or adjust our capital structure. We are not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our primary sources of capital to date have been borrowings, security offerings, exercise of stock options and warrants, and, to a lesser extent, pre-commercial revenue.&#160; The following is a breakdown of our capital:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On December 9, 2022, we closed the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering. In the U.S. IPO, we sold 11,904 U.S. Common Units at a public offering price of USD$867.30 per unit, consisting of one Common Share and one Warrant. The Warrants have a per share exercise price of USD$1,050, were exercisable immediately, and expire five years from the date of issuance. In connection with the closing of the U.S. IPO, the underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 948 pre-funded common share purchase warrants and 1,786 warrants to purchase Common Shares. All these warrants will expire on December 8, 2027.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In the Canadian Offering, we sold 3,459 units, each consisting of one Common Share and one warrant to purchase one Common Share, at a price to the public of USD$867.30 per unit. The warrants will have a per Common Share exercise price of USD$1,050, are exercisable immediately and expire five years from the date of issuance.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The closing of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of USD$14.1 million (CAD $19.4 million).&#160; After underwriting discounts and offering expenses, the net proceeds were USD$11 million (CAD $15 million).&#160; See Note 16(a) of Fiscal 2023 financial statements for further details.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Critical Accounting Estimates</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following is a summary of critical accounting policies, requiring management to make significant estimates and assumptions:</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Revenue</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of products or services to customers at an amount that reflects the transaction price we expect to receive in exchange for the products or services. Our contracts with customers may include the delivery of multiple products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. The accounting for a contract or contracts with a customer that contain multiple performance obligations requires us to allocate the contract or contracts transaction price to the identified distinct performance obligations.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized, for each performance obligation, either over a period of time or at a point in time, depending on which method reflects the transfer of control of the goods or services underlying the particular obligation to the customer.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For performance obligations satisfied over time, we recognize revenue over time using an input method, based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion, to measure progress toward satisfying such performance obligation (for non-recurring engineering services, the input method is based on hours). Under this method, costs that do not contribute to our performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer are excluded from the measurement of progress toward satisfying the performance obligation. In certain other situations, we might recognize revenue at a point in time, when the criteria to recognize revenue over time are not met. In any event, when the total anticipated costs exceed the total anticipated revenues on a contract, such loss is recognized in its entirety in the period it becomes known. Refer to Note 18 of Fiscal 2024 financial statements for timing of revenue recognition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may enter into contractual arrangements with a customer to deliver services on one project with respect to more than one performance obligation, such as non-recurring engineering, procurement, and training. When entering into such arrangements, we allocate the transaction price by reference to the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. Accordingly, when such arrangements exist on the same project, the value of each performance obligation is based on its stand-alone price and recognized according to the respective revenue recognition methods described above. For example, for non-recurring engineering services rendered over a contract period the revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method; whereas for training services the revenue is recognized after the training is delivered (i.e. point in time).</p>
    <div id="footer_page_89">
        <p style="text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">83</p>
    </div>
    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_90"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We account for a contract modification, which consists of a change in the scope or price (or both) of a contract, as a separate contract when the remaining goods or services to be delivered after the modification are distinct from those delivered prior to the modification and the price of the contract increases by an amount of consideration that reflects our stand-alone selling price of the additional promised goods or services. When the contract modification is not accounted for as a separate contract, we recognize an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis at the date of contract modification. There was no contract modification in the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The timing of revenue recognition often differs from performance payment schedules, resulting in revenue that has been earned but not billed. These amounts are included in unbilled receivables. At September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we had an immaterial amount of unbilled receivable. Amounts billed in accordance with customer contracts, but not yet earned, are recorded and presented as part of contract liabilities. At March 31, 2025 there was $122,632 of contract liabilities (September 30, 2024 - $120,571, September 30, 2023 &#8211; $120,970 and September 30, 2022 - $47,271).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">When a contract includes a significant financing component, the value of such component is excluded from the transaction price and is recognized separately as finance income or expense, as applicable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Accounting for acquisitions and contingent consideration</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">During Fiscal 2022, we acquired Police Ordnance and accounted for it pursuant to IFRS 3, Business Combinations. Areas of significant estimation in connection with the accounting of this transaction included:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the estimated fair value of raw and work-in-progress inventories and intangible assets for the purchase price allocation; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the volatility assumption used in the Black Scholes option model to estimate the fair value of the warrants issued to the selling shareholders given our short history as a public company.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">During Fiscal 2021, we acquired the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> system and accounted for it pursuant to IFRS 2, <i>Share-Based Payment</i>. Areas of significant estimation in connection with the acquisition of the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> system included:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the determination of the discount rate for the present value of the minimum annual royalty payments to DEFSEC; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">the volatility assumption used in the Black Scholes option model to estimate the fair value of the warrants issued to DEFSEC given our short history as a public company (see <i>Critical Accounting Estimates - Accounting for share-based compensation</i>).</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For further details on the above acquisitions, refer to Note 4 of the Fiscal 2024 financial statements.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Impairment of long-lived assets</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We review property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows, referred to as the cash generating unit ("<b>CGU</b>").</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In accordance with IFRS, if the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows from a long-lived asset is less than the carrying value of that asset, then we recognize an asset impairment charge. The impairment charge is determined based on the excess of the asset's carrying value over its fair value, which generally represents the discounted future cash flows from that asset.</p>
    <div id="footer_page_90">

    </div>
    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_91"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Because we are an early-commercial stage technology company, management exercises significant judgment in establishing key assumptions and estimates to determine the recoverable amount of our CGU, including future cash flows based on historical and budgeting operating results, growth rates, tax rates, and appropriate after-tax discount rates. The actual results may vary and may cause significant adjustments in future periods.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Impairment of non-financial assets</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We review non-financial assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the respective non-financial asset is less than our carrying amount, it is considered to be impaired. Management exercises significant judgement in estimating the recoverable amount for non-financial assets (see<i> Critical Accounting Estimates - Impairment of long-lived assets</i>).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Accounting for share-based compensation</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We measure share-based compensation at fair value. Key inputs in the Black Scholes option model is the volatility assumption, forfeiture rate, and expected life of our Common Shares. Due to our limited trading history, management has established a relevant peer group of listed companies and selected the weighted average of their volatilities over a period of three to five years, where available. Starting in Fiscal 2021, we have commenced to incorporate a percentage of our stock volatility in the overall calculation of the volatility assumption. We rely on our stock volatility to estimate the fair value of share-based compensation as well as for warrants. As a result of our limited trading history, we have assumed a forfeiture rate of 0%, which will be reassessed annually. The expected life is estimated based on our trading history.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Accounting for Unsecured Loans</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Due to the issuance of bonus Common Shares as part of the unsecured loans transactions during Fiscal 2022, we are required to allocate a percentage of the gross proceeds between the bonus <font style="color: #231f20;">Common Shares</font> and the debt component based on their relative fair value.&#160; To measure the fair value of the unsecured loans, we used the income approach and estimated a market discount rate ranging from 22% - 24% to discount the future cash flows of the unsecured loans.&#160; Management selected a discount rate based on review of the debt cost for comparable public companies.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For further information on the unsecured loans, see Note 12 of the Fiscal 2022 financial statements.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Broker compensation options</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a result of the private placement in April 2021, we issued broker compensation options. To measure the fair value of the broker compensation options, we used the Monte Carlo valuation model and exercised judgment in estimating the life, risk free rate, and volatility.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For further information on the broker compensation options see Note 16(c) of the fiscal 2024 consolidated financial statements.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Compensation</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Compensation for Fiscal 2024</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The aggregate amount of compensation paid during the year ended September 30, 2024 (including accrued amount at September 30, 2024), directly and indirectly, including directors' fees, to our named executive officers and directors in their capacity as such, was $1.5 million (Fiscal 2023: $1.5 million).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This discussion describes our compensation program for each person who acted as President and CEO, CFO and the three most highly-compensated executive officers (or three most highly-compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity), other than the CEO and the CFO, whose total compensation was more than $150,000 in our last fiscal year and who was performing a policy-making function in respect of the Company (each a "<b>NEO</b>" and collectively the "<b>NEOs</b>"). This section addresses our philosophy and objectives and provides a review of the process that the Board follows in deciding how to compensate the NEOs. This section also provides discussion and analysis of the Board's specific decisions about the compensation of the NEOs for Fiscal 2024.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We had five (5) NEOs during the Fiscal 2024, namely: David Luxton, Chairman and Director, Sean Homuth, President &amp; CEO, Jeffery MacLeod, former President and CEO, Kris Denis, Interim CFO and Chief Compliance Officer and Harry Webster, Chief Operating Officer.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Compensation Philosophy and Objectives</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our current executive compensation program is designed to provide short and long-term rewards to our executives that are consistent with individual and corporate performance and their contribution to our short and long-term objectives. Our objectives with respect to compensation of executive officers are to provide compensation levels necessary to attract and retain high quality executives, and to motivate key executives to contribute to our interests. These objectives are to be met by the principal components of our executive compensation program, which has been focused on a combination of base compensation, cash bonus remuneration, and long-term incentives in the form of stock options or other security-based compensation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The executive compensation program adopted by us and applied to our executive officers is designed to:</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 36pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt;">(a)<font style="width: 24.9pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font>attract and retain qualified and experienced executives who will contribute to our growth and success;</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-left: 72pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-indent: -36pt; text-align: justify;">(b)<font style="width: 24.34pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font>ensure that the compensation of our executive officers provides a competitive base compensation package and a strong link between corporate performance and compensation; and</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-left: 72pt; text-indent: -36pt; text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 10pt;">(c)<font style="width: 24.9pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font>motivate executive officers to enhance long-term shareholder value, with current compensation being weighted toward at-risk long-term incentives in the form of options and other security-based incentives so as to foster alignment with the interests of our shareholders and stakeholders.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We do not believe that our compensation programs encourage excessive or inappropriate risk taking because: (i) our employees receive both fixed and variable compensation, and the fixed portion (salary) provides a steady income regardless of Common Share value, which allows employees to focus on our business; and (ii) our LTIP encourages a long-term perspective due to the vesting provisions, which is generally at least over two (2) years. We believe that our compensation program is appropriately structured and balanced to motivate our employees and reward the achievement of annual performance goals, as well as the achievement of long-term growth in shareholder value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Compensation Governance and Process</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have relied on the experience of our Board in setting our executive compensation philosophy and appropriate levels of compensation for our NEOs.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Today, we do not have a separate Compensation Committee. Our Board assumes responsibility as a whole for the oversight over the compensation of directors and executives, including:</p>

        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">review and approval our remuneration and compensation policies, including short and long-term incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans, bonus plans, pension plans (if any), our LTIP and grants, and benefit plans;</li>

        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">review and approve at least annually all compensation arrangements for our senior executives;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">review and approve at least annually all compensation arrangements for our directors; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 45.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">review the executive compensation sections disclosed in this Prospectus and our management information circular distributed to shareholders in respect of our annual, and any special, meetings of shareholders.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">While David Luxton works with our Board in making recommendations regarding our overall compensation policies and plan as well as specific level of compensation for the other NEOs, they are recused from any Board deliberations and decisions in respect to their own personal compensation. Their respective current fixed compensation was set prior to going public in Canada.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Elements of Compensation</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our executive compensation program consists of three principal components: base salaries, annual incentive compensation and benefits, and long-term compensation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Base Salaries</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Base salaries are intended to reflect an executive officer&#8217;s position within our corporate structure, his or her years of experience and level of responsibility, and salary norms in the sector and general marketplace. Further, as an early-stage company, we believe we have set the base salaries for the NEOs below market rates, to conserve cash in return for higher stock-based compensation awards. Accordingly, decisions with respect to base salary levels for executive officers are not based on objective identifiable performance measures but for the most part are determined by reference to competitive market information for similar roles and levels of responsibility, coupled with subjective performance factors such as leadership, commitment, accountability, industry experience, and contributions. Our view is that a competitive base salary is a necessary element for retaining qualified executive officers, as it creates a meaningful incentive for individuals to remain with us and not be unreasonably susceptible to recruiting efforts by our competitors.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In determining the base salary compensation of each NEO, the Board considers: (i) recruiting and retaining executives critical to our success and the enhancement of shareholder value; (ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; (iii) balancing the interests of management and our shareholders; and (iv) rewarding performance, both on an individual basis and with respect to operations in general.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Annual Incentive Compensation and Benefits</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Board will consider whether it is appropriate and in our best interests to award discretionary cash bonus to the NEOs for the most recently completed fiscal year and, if so, the amount. Discretionary cash bonuses are awarded to recognize the achievement of annual corporate objectives and to recognize contributions that enhance our intrinsic value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following is a summary of the maximum annual incentive compensation as a percentage of base salary / annual consulting fee, for the NEOs based on their respective employment / consulting agreements, at the sole discretion of the Board:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We did not establish explicit goals / milestones for our NEOs for Fiscal 2024 for the annual cash incentive compensation. &#160;For Fiscal 2025, the following corporate goals have been established:</p>
    <ul>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">maintain our Nasdaq listing by regaining compliance with Minimum Bid Price Requirement.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">raise US$5 million.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">grow government contracts to $6 million annualized run rate by end of fiscal year.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">establish American ARWEN<b><sup>&#174;</sup></b> manufacturing and achieve first revenue on 40mm ammunition.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">increase ARWEN<b><sup>&#174;</sup></b> revenue by 50% in second half of fiscal 2025.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">achieve first revenue on a subscription basis for KWESST Lightning<sup>TM</sup>.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">completion of TRL5 prototype of networked version of SPOC for BLDS.</p>
        </li>

        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">achieve PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> classification with ATF to enable civilian sales in the United States.</p>
        </li>
        <li>
            <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">achieve over $250,000 in PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> revenue in Fiscal 2025</p>
        </li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The above goals are equally weighted to determine the percentage of target bonus up to 100%. The base goals have an annualized revenue run rate of $7 million, if an annualized run rate of $10 million or greater is achieved the base target is increased to 125%.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Long-Term Compensation</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The long-term component of compensation for our NEOs, consists of (i) stock options ("<b>Options</b>"), (ii) RSUs, (iii) deferred share units ("<b>DSUs</b>"), (iv) SARs and/or (v) performance stock units ("<b>PSUs</b>") (collectively the "<b>Security-Based Compensation Awards</b>"). This component of compensation is intended to reinforce management's commitment to long-term improvements in our performance.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Board believes that incentive compensation in the form of Security-Based Compensation Awards which vest over time, is and has been beneficial and necessary to attract and retain NEOs. Furthermore, the Board believes Security-Based Compensation Awards are an effective long-term incentive vehicle because they are directly tied to our share price over a longer period and therefore motivates NEOs to deliver sustained long-term performance and increase shareholder value and have a time horizon that aligns with long-term corporate goals. As such, our Board does not grant Security-Based Compensation Awards in excessively dilutive numbers or at exercise prices not reflective of the Company's underlying value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In determining individual equity-based grants, the Board considers the experience, responsibilities and performance of each recipient of an award under the LTIP. Previous grants are also taken into consideration during the grant process.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Benefits Plans</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The NEOs are entitled to life insurance, health and dental benefits.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We do not maintain a pension plan or retirement benefit plan for the NEOs.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>External Compensation Consultants</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In determining the base salaries for the NEOs, we considered comparable market base salaries, based on information provided by an outside executive search consulting firm and then set the base salaries for the NEOs at the lower end of the range.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Assessment of Risks Associated with Our Compensation Policies and Practices</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Board has assessed the compensation plans and programs for our executive officers to ensure alignment with our business plan and to evaluate the potential risks associated with those plans and programs. Our Board has concluded that the compensation policies and practices do not create any risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Board considers the risks associated with executive compensation and corporate incentive plans when designing and reviewing such plans and programs. We have not adopted a policy restricting our NEOs or directors from purchasing financial instruments that are designated to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by its NEOs or directors. To our knowledge, none of the NEOs or directors has purchased such financial instruments.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Performance Graph</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following graph illustrates the cumulative return to our shareholders based on a $100 investment in the Common Shares from September 22, 2020, the date we went public in Canada, to September 30, 2024, as compared to the cumulative total return on the Standard &amp; Poor's / TSXV Composite Index for the same period, assuming the reinvestment of cash distributions and/or dividends:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The trend in the above performance graph does not correlate to the trend of the compensation paid to the NEOs.&#160; As described under "Elements of Compensation", based salaries reflect each NEO's primary duties and responsibilities and are set at levels based on responsibility, experience and expertise as well as subjective factors such as leadership.&#160; We believe that management must be compensated a minimum base salary for the value of the services provided, irrespective of our Common Share price performance.&#160; Pursuant to our LTIP, we have granted Options, RSUs, and PSUs to our NEOs, each form a significant portion of compensation, and therefore the total compensation for the NEOs is directly affected by decreases or increases in the price of our Common Shares as the value of such Options, RSUs, and PSUs changes as our Common Share price changes.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On February 10, 2021, our Board adopted a new LTIP, which was approved by our shareholders on March 31, 2021, and on April 9, 2021, by the TSXV. Our LTIP was subsequently amended to conform with the new TSXV policy issued on November 24, 2021, in relation to security-based compensation. Our shareholders approved this amended LTIP on March 31, 2022, which was subsequently approved by the TSXV on April 14, 2022.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The maximum number of Common Shares issuable under our LTIP for stock options is 10% of our issued and outstanding Common Shares, subject to adjustment or increase pursuant to the terms of the LTIP. Any stock options that have been cancelled, repurchased, expired, or exercised will again be available under the LTIP. At September 30, 2024, we had 1,857 outstanding stock options, leaving 818 stock options available for future grants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Additionally, the maximum number of Common Shares issuable under our LTIP in respect of RSUs, DSUs, SARs, and PSUs (collectively "Share Units") is 1,940. At September 30, 2024, we had 55 Share Units available for future grants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following is a summary of the salient terms of the equity-based awards available under our amended LTIP. For a more fulsome disclosure of our LTIP, a copy of our amended LTIP is available on SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Stock Options</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Key Employees, Directors, Consultants and Persons performing Investor Relations Services (as such terms are defined in the LTIP) are eligible to receive grants of stock options to acquire Common Shares at the time of employment or contract, if applicable, and thereafter as determined by the Board.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Restricted Share Units</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Key Employees, Directors and Consultants, are eligible to receive grants of RSUs, entitling the holder to receive one Common Share for each RSU, subject to restrictions as the Board may, in its sole discretion, establish in the applicable award agreement. The Board believes the granting of RSUs creates long-term incentive, a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and stakeholders. The granting of RSUs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for RSUs in addition to other restrictions, this compensation element is also designed to support long term retention of valuable Key Employees and Directors as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Performance Share Units</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Key Employees, Directors, and Consultants are eligible to receive grants of PSUs, entitling the holder to receive one Common Share for each PSU, subject to the achievement or attainment of specific performance criteria ("<b>Performance Criteria</b>") within a specific period ("<b>Performance Cycle</b>"). The number of PSUs and the Performance Criteria which must be satisfied in order for the PSUs to vest and the Performance Cycle in respect of such PSUs shall be specified in the applicable award agreement. The Board believes the granting of the PSUs incentivizes the attainment of specific goals which support our overall strategies and creates a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and stakeholders. The granting of PSUs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for PSUs in addition to other restrictions, this compensation element is also designed to support long-term retention of valuable employees as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Deferred Share Units</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Key Employees and Directors are eligible to receive grants of DSUs. Directors may elect to receive any part or all of their fees payable in respective of their position as a director as DSUs. Each holder of a DSU is entitled to receive one Common Share for each DSU. The Board believes the granting of DSUs creates long-term incentive, a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and Stakeholders. The granting of DSUs is intended to reward directors who are responsible for oversight of our management and growth and to encourage such directors to maintain a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Stock Appreciation Rights</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Key Employees, Directors, and Consultants are eligible to receive grants of SARs, entitling the recipient to receive a payment in Common Shares equal to the current market price less the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Board at the time of the grant for each SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion, satisfy payment of the entitlement in cash rather than in Common Shares. The granting of SARs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for SARs, this compensation element is also designed to support long-term retention of valuable employees as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">No award issued under the LTIP, other than Options, may vest before the date that is one year following the date it is granted or issued. Notwithstanding this provision, vesting may be accelerated for a Participant who dies or who ceases to be an eligible Participant under the LTIP in connection with a change of control, takeover bid, RTO, or other similar transaction.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For Options grants to Investor Relations service providers, vesting must be over a period of not less than one year, with no more than 25% of such options vesting in any three months.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Modification of an Award</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Any adjustment, other than as noted in section 4.3 Anti-Dilution of the LTIP, to award granted or issued under our LTIP must be subject to the prior acceptance of the TSXV, including adjustments related to an amalgamation, merger, arrangement, reorganization, spin-off, dividend, or recapitalization.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Further, any decrease in the exercise price of or extension to stock options granted to individuals that are Insiders at the time of the proposed amendment is subject to disinterested shareholder approval.</p>

The complaint alleged that EOTECH sold defective holographic weapon sights to the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation during the period from 2007 through 2014 and that the Defendants became aware that design defects in EOTECH's sights caused them to fail in cold temperature and humid environments. The Government of the United States alleged in its complaint that although EOTECH was contractually obligated to disclose these defects to the military, the Defendants nevertheless concealed them until they believed that EOTECH had product improvements that would correct the defects, and even then failed to disclose the nature and severity of the defects. Under the Settlement, the Defendants admitted, acknowledged and accepted responsibility for several claims. Mr. Mangano admitted, acknowledged and accepted responsibility.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">L-3 paid the Settlement Amount of USD $25.6 million and the Government of the United States released the Defendants and all of their at-that-time and former officers, directors and employees from any civil or administrative monetary claims the United States has for the conduct covered in the complaint under the False Claims Act, the Civil Monetary Penalties Law, the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act, the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act, the Contract Disputes Act and the common law theories of breach of contract, payment by mistake, unjust enrichment and fraud. The Settlement does not contain any sanctions or penalties imposed on Mr. Mangano and Mr. Mangano did not pay any portion of the Settlement Amount.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Under its charter, the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve all non-audit services to be performed by the external auditors in relation to us, together with approval of the engagement letter for such non-audit services and estimated fees thereof. The pre-approval process for non-audit services will also involve a consideration of the potential impact of such services on the independence of the external auditors.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Prior to the closing of our U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering in December 2022, the major changes in the last three years in the percentage ownership of persons who beneficially own 5% of the outstanding voting rights attached to our Common Shares were:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Our Founder, President &amp; CEO and director, through a holding company (2573685 Ontario Inc.), held 673 Common Shares or 18.2% of the total outstanding voting rights.</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">DEFSEC Corporation increased its beneficial ownership to 327 Common Shares or 8.8% as a result of receiving 68 Common Shares (and warrants exercisable for 34 Common Shares) on April 29, 2021, for selling the PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> technology to DEFSEC.</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 27.6pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">On September 10, 2021, SOL Global Investments Corp. announced its equity ownership of our Common Shares for the first time, reporting 9.6% equity ownership and 10.3% on a partially diluted basis. On December 31, 2021, SOL Global Investments Corp held 367 Common Shares and warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 27 Common Shares. On March 9, 2022, SOL Global Investments announced that it had reduced their Common Share holdings in DEFSEC to less than 10% of our total outstanding Common Shares. Immediately prior to the closing of our U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, SOL Global Investments Corp. held 568 Common Shares or 8.7%.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a result of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, all the above major shareholders now own less than 5% of the outstanding Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">At July 7, 2025, there were a total of 44 record holders of our Common Shares, of which 10 record holders were resident in the United States, holding a total of 652,799 Common Shares, based on available information. This number represents approximately 98% of our total issued and outstanding Common Shares at that date.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We are a publicly owned company, and our Common Shares are owned by Canadian residents, United States residents, and residents of other countries. To our knowledge, we are not directly owned or controlled by another corporation, any foreign government or any other natural or legal person(s), whether severally or jointly. We are not aware of any arrangement, the operation of which may result in a change of control of us.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The entering into the DEFSEC Corporation Purchase Agreement by us was considered to be a "related-party transaction" for purposes of <i>Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions</i> ("<b>MI 61-101</b>") and <i>Policy 5.9 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions of the TSXV</i>. We relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements available under MI 61-101. We were exempt from the formal valuation requirement in section 5.4 of MI 61-101 in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and (b) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the transaction was not more than 25% of our market capitalization, and no securities of ours were listed or quoted for trading on prescribed stock exchanges or stock markets. Additionally, we were exempt from minority shareholder approval requirement in section 5.6 of MI 61- 101 in reliance on section 5.7(a) as the fair market value of the transaction was not more than 25% of our market capitalization. The transaction was reviewed and approved by our independent directors, and we obtained approval from over 51% of disinterested shareholders. Further, on February 19, 2021, the TSXV conditionally approved this asset acquisition. We closed the LEC Technology acquisition shortly after closing the April 2021 Private Placement.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><font style="background-color: #ffffff;">On September 14, 2020, we entered into a voting agreement with Messrs. Luxton and MacLeod, pursuant to which Messrs. Luxton and MacLeod agreed to vote the voting securities of us they own and exercise voting control over to ensure that the following individuals are members of our Board: Mr. Luxton, Mr. MacLeod, one person nominated by Mr. Luxton who is from the capital markets industry, one independent person nominated by Mr. Luxton and one independent person nominated by Mr. MacLeod. Further, Messrs. Luxton and MacLeod irrevocably appointed our President as their proxy and granted our President power of attorney to vote their voting securities in a manner described in the voting agreement should either Mr. Luxton or Mr. MacLeod fail to vote or attempt to vote in a manner inconsistent with the voting agreement.

    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">From January 28, 2021, to June 24, 2022, the CEO and sole shareholder of SageGuild agreed to serve as director for our United States subsidiary, KWESST Defense Systems U.S. Inc, and as a result SageGuild was a related party to DEFSEC for this period. We previously entered into a consulting agreement with SageGuild in March 2020 to provide business development services in the United States. This consulting agreement, including compensation, was not modified as a result of the above. At the time, SageGuild was not a related party, and the terms of this consulting agreement were negotiated at arm&#8217;s length. From January 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021, the total compensation (cash and share-based) amounted to $339,309.&#160; For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, the total compensation was $81,761 and $251,809 respectively.&#160;&#160; Effective June 24, 2022, our Executive Chairman replaced SageGuild&#8217;s CEO as the acting CEO and director for KWESST Defense Systems U.S. Inc. and therefore from this date SageGuild is no longer a related party.</p>

For the foreseeable future, we anticipate that we will not pay dividends but will retain future earnings and other cash resources for the operation and development of our business.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">All share-related information presented in this section gives effect to the Reverse Split.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If you invest in our Common Shares in this Offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per Common Share (assuming no Pre-funded Warrants are sold in the Offering) and the as adjusted net tangible book value per Common Share immediately after the closing of this Offering (assuming no Pre-funded Warrants are sold in the Offering). Net tangible book value per share represents our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding Common Shares. As of March 31, 2025, our unaudited net tangible book value was USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; million or USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per share, using the exchange rate of USD$1.00 per CAD$&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; .</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The net proceeds from our sale of&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; Common Shares in this Offering at the assumed public offering price of USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per share, after deducting placement agent commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025, after giving effect to this Offering would have been USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; million, or USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per share, assuming no Pre-funded Warrants are sold in the Offering. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per share to our existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per share to investors purchasing Common Shares in this Offering.</p>

A USD$0.10 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; per Common Share and accompanying Warrant (assuming no Pre-funded Warrants are sold in the Offering) would increase (decrease) our as adjusted net tangible book value after giving effect to this Offering to USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; (USD$&#160; &#160; ) per Common Share and would decrease (increase) dilution to new investors by USD$&#160; &#160; &#160; (&#160; &#160; ) per share.

However, upon notice from the holder to us, the holder may decrease or increase the holder's beneficial ownership limitation, which may not exceed 9.99% of the number of outstanding Common Shares immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, provided that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation will not take effect until 61 days following notice to us.&#160; &#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Cashless Exercise</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If, at the time a holder exercises its Warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance or resale of the Common Shares underlying the Warrants under the Securities Act is not then effective or available for the issuance of such Common Shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of Common Shares determined according to a formula set forth in the Warrants.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Fundamental Transactions</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In the event of any fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any merger or consolidation with or into another entity, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or reclassification of our Common Shares, then upon any subsequent exercise of the Warrants, the holder will have the right to receive as alternative consideration, for each Common Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such fundamental transaction, the number of Common Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of our Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable upon or as a result of such transaction by a holder of the number of Common Shares for which the Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a fundamental transaction, the holders of the Warrants have the right to require us or a successor entity to redeem the Warrants for cash in the amount of the Black-Scholes Value (as defined in the Warrants) of the remaining unexercised portion of the Warrants on the date of the consummation of such fundamental transaction, concurrently with or within 30 days following the consummation of a fundamental transaction.&#160;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">However, in the event of a fundamental transaction which is not in our control, including a fundamental transaction not approved by our Board, the holders of the Warrants will only be entitled to receive from us or our successor entity, as of the date of consummation of such fundamental transaction the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of the Warrants that are being offered and paid to the holders of our Common Shares in connection with the fundamental transaction, whether that consideration is in the form of cash, stock or any combination of cash and stock, or whether the holders of our Common Shares are given the choice to receive alternative forms of consideration in connection with the fundamental transaction.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Company was incorporated on November 28, 2017, pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA under the name &#8220;<i>F</i><i>oremost Ventures Corp.</i>&#8221; On September 4, 2020, the Company changed its name to &#8220;<i>KWESST Micro Systems Inc.</i>&#8221; On June 30, 2025, the Company changed its name to &#8220;<i>DEFSEC Technologies Inc.</i>&#8221;</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our registered and records office address is located at Suite 1510 - 789 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1H2, Canada. Our head office is located at 80 Hines Rd, Suite #300, Ottawa, Ontario, K2K 2T8, Canada.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Objects and Purposes</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Articles of the Company (the "<b>Articles</b>") do not contain a limitation on objects and purposes.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Directors</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Article 17 of the Articles deals with a directors' disclosable interest (as defined in the BCBCA) in contracts or transactions into which the Company has entered or proposes to enter. Article 17.2 provides that a director who holds such a disclosable interest is not entitled to vote on any directors' resolution to approve such contract or transaction, unless all the directors have a disclosable interest in that contract or transaction, in which case any or all of those directors may vote on such resolution.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Pursuant to the BCBCA, a director holds a disclosable interest in a contract or transaction if (a) the contract or transaction is material to the Company, (b) the Company has entered, or proposes to enter, into the contract or transaction, and (c) the director has a material interest in the contract or transaction or the director is a director or senior officer of, or has a material interest in, a person who has a material interest in the contract or transaction. Pursuant to the BCBCA, a director does not have a disclosable interest in a number of prescribed situations, including without limitation in respect of a contract or transaction merely because the contract or transaction relates to the remuneration of the director in that person's capacity as a director of the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in the board of directors, but if the Company has fewer directors in office than the number set pursuant to the Articles as the quorum of directors, the directors may only act for the purpose of appointing directors up to that number or of summoning a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of filling any vacancies on the board of directors or, subject to the BCBCA, for any other purpose. The quorum necessary for the transaction of the business of the directors may be set by the directors and, if not so set, is deemed to be set at two directors or, if the number of directors is set at one, is deemed to be set at one director, and that director may constitute a meeting.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Article 8 of the Articles deals with borrowing powers. The Company, if authorized by the directors, may: (i) borrow money in the manner and amount, on the security, from the sources and on the terms and conditions that they consider appropriate; (ii) issue bonds, debentures and other debt obligations either outright or as security for any liability or obligation of the Company or any other person and at such discounts or premiums and on such other terms as they consider appropriate; (iii) guarantee the repayment of money by any other person or the performance of any obligation of any other person; and (iv) mortgage, charge, whether by way of specific or floating charge, grant a security interest in, or give other security on, the whole or any part of the present and future assets and undertaking of the Company.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of any meeting of shareholders of the Company, to attend and to cast one vote per share at such meetings. Holders of Common Shares are also entitled to receive on a pro rata basis such dividends, if any, as and when declared by the Board at its discretion from funds legally available therefor and upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company are entitled to receive on a pro rata basis, the net assets of the Company after payment of debts and other liabilities, in each case subject to the rights, privileges, restrictions, and conditions attaching to any other series or class of shares ranking senior in priority. Common Shares do not carry any pre-emptive, subscription, redemption, conversion rights, sinking fund provisions, liability to further capital calls by the Company, or provisions discriminating against any existing or prospective holder of Common Shares as a result of such shareholder owning a substantial number of Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The rights of shareholders of the Company may be altered only with the approval of the holders of two thirds or more of the Common Shares voted at a meeting of the Company's shareholders called and held in accordance with the Articles and applicable law.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There are no provisions in the Company's constating documents or under applicable corporate law requiring share ownership to be disclosed. Securities legislation in Canada requires that shareholder ownership (as well as ownership of an interest in, or right or obligation associated with, a related financial instrument of a security of the Company) must be disclosed once a person beneficially owns or has control or direction over, directly or indirectly, securities of a reporting issuer carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all the reporting issuer's outstanding voting securities. This threshold is higher than the 5% threshold under United States securities legislation at which shareholders must report their share ownership.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Changes to Capital</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There are no conditions imposed by the Articles governing changes in the capital where such conditions are more significant than is required by the corporate laws of the Province of British Columbia for as long as the Company is a public company. Otherwise, Section 26.3 of the Articles provides that no share or designated security may be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without the consent of the directors and the directors are not required to give any reason for refusing to consent to any such sale, transfer or other disposition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Description of Capital Structure</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our authorized share structure consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value, of which 667,707 Common Shares were issued and outstanding as of July 7, 2025, after giving effect to the Reverse Split. All of the issued Common Shares are fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares in the capital of the Company. The Company does not own any of its Common Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Exchange Controls</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Canada has no system of exchange controls. There are no Canadian governmental laws, decrees, or regulations relating to restrictions on the repatriation of capital or earnings of the Company to non-resident investors. There are no laws in Canada or exchange control restrictions affecting the remittance of dividends or other payments made by the Company in the ordinary course to non-resident holders of the Common Shares by virtue of their ownership of such Common Shares, except as discussed below under section <i>Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences </i>and <i>Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations</i>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">There are no limitations under the laws of Canada or in the organizing documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote securities of the Company, except that the <i>Investment Canada Act</i> may require that a "non-Canadian" not acquire "control" of the Company without prior review and approval by the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, where applicable thresholds are exceeded. The acquisition of one-third or more of the voting shares of the Company would give rise a rebuttable presumption of an acquisition of control, and the acquisition of more than fifty percent of the voting shares of the Company would be deemed to be an acquisition of control. In addition, the <i>Investment Canada Act</i> provides the Canadian government with broad discretionary powers in relation to national security to review and potentially prohibit, condition or require the divestiture of, any investment in the Company by a non-Canadian, including non-control level investments. "Non-Canadian" generally means an individual who is neither a Canadian citizen nor a permanent resident of Canada within the meaning of the <i>Immigration and Refugee Protection</i> <i>Act</i> (Canada) who has been ordinarily resident in Canada for not more than one year after the time at which he or she first became eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship, or a corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is ultimately controlled by non-Canadians.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On June 10, 2024, we announced that we were awarded the Thales Subcontract, whereby we will deliver specialized software services for work under the DND Land C4ISR series of contracts to modernize the Canadian Army's capabilities through the Land C4ISR Program.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Under the Thales Subcontract, our maximum workshare is 20% of all task authorizations awarded to Thales Canada under the Land C4ISR Program and is estimated to be valued up to approximately CAD$48 million.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our work will involve the delivery of software engineering development and sustainment services on an as-and-when need basis as directed by rolling task-authorizations throughout the period of performance.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our work on the program will be directed by Thales Canada through additional work requests ("<b>AWR</b>") in responses to SOW received from the Land C4ISR Program on a rolling as-and-when-needed basis throughout the term of the Thales Subcontract. We will work with Thales Canada to propose the appropriate resources against customer-solicited AWR SOWs. Once approved in the form of task authorizations, we will have the obligation to recruit and apply resources to the projects alongside Thales Canada resources. We will invoice for work within 15 days of its completion and receive payment net sixty (60) days from the actual delivery of the work.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Under the Thales subcontract, Thales Canada has flowed to us its share of obligations related to industrial and technological benefits ("<b>ITB</b>") and indigenous business. This requires us to execute 100% of the Thales Subcontract value within Canada and flow portions of the contract value into areas such as skills development and training in key technology areas. Under the Thales Subcontract, such ITB obligations attract potential liquidated damages of 20% for any shortfall over the allowable achievement period. Additionally, we are required to achieve not less than 5% of the contract value with Indigenous business.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As is customary with Canadian government contracts, the Thales Subcontract may be suspended or terminated for convenience or default.</p>

In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including without limitation specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable income tax treaty. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any particular U.S. Holder. This summary does not address the U.S. federal net investment income tax, U.S. federal alternative minimum tax, U.S. federal estate and gift tax, U.S. state and local tax, and non-U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, all as acquired pursuant to this Offering. In addition, except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Each prospective U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, and Warrant Shares all as acquired pursuant to this Offering.</p>

This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the conclusions described in this summary.</p>

Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis which could affect the U.S. federal income tax considerations described in this summary. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive, current or prospective basis.</p>

Partners (or other owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as &#8220;pass-through&#8221; entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, all as acquired pursuant to this Offering.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of the Offering</b></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the acquisition by a U.S. Holder of one Common Share and one Warrant should be treated as the acquisition of an &#8220;investment unit&#8221; comprised of such Common Share and Warrant (herein referred to as a &#8220;<b>Common Unit</b>&#8221;), and the acquisition by a U.S. Holder of one Pre-funded Warrant and one Warrant should be treated as the acquisition of an &#8220;investment unit&#8221; comprised of such Pre-funded Warrant and Warrant (herein referred to as a &#8220;<b>Pre-Funded Warrant Unit</b>&#8221;)</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the acquisition by a U.S. Holder of a Common Unit will be treated as the acquisition of one Common Share and one Warrant. The purchase price for each Common Unit will be allocated between these two components in proportion to their relative fair market values at the time the Common Unit is purchased by the U.S. Holder. This allocation of the purchase price for each Common Unit will establish a U.S. Holder's initial tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the one Common Share and one Warrant that comprise each Common Unit.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">For this purpose, the Company will allocate USD$&#160;&#160;&#160; &#160;of the purchase price for the Common Unit to the Common Share and USD$&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; of the purchase price for each Common Unit to the Warrant. However, the IRS will not be bound by such allocation of the purchase price for the Common Units, and therefore, the IRS or a U.S. court may not respect the allocation set forth above.&#160; Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the allocation of the purchase price for the Common Units.</p>

    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the acquisition by a U.S. Holder of a Pre-funded Warrant Unit will be treated as the acquisition of one Pre-funded Warrant and one Warrant. The purchase price for each Pre-funded Warrant Unit will be allocated between these two components in proportion to their relative fair market values at the time the Pre-funded Warrant Unit is purchased by the U.S. Holder. This allocation of the purchase price for each Pre-funded Warrant Unit will establish a U.S. Holder's initial tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the one Pre-funded Warrant and one Warrant that comprise each Pre-funded Warrant Unit.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">For this purpose, the Company will allocate USD$&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; of the purchase price for the Pre-funded Warrant Unit to the Pre-funded Warrant and USD$&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; of the purchase price for each Pre-funded Warrant Unit to the Warrant. However, the IRS will not be bound by such allocation of the purchase price for the Pre-funded Warrant Units, and therefore, the IRS or a U.S. court may not respect the allocation set forth above.&#160; Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the allocation of the purchase price for the Pre-funded Warrant Units.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Treatment of Pre-funded Warrants</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Although it is not entirely free from doubt, the Company believes that a Pre-funded Warrant should be treated as a separate class of the Company&#8217;s common shares for U.S. federal income tax purposes and a U.S. Holder of Pre-funded Warrants should generally be taxed in the same manner as a holder of Common Shares except as described below. Accordingly, no gain or loss should be recognized upon the exercise of a Pre-funded Warrant and, upon exercise, the holding period of a Pre-funded Warrant should carry over to the Common Shares received. Similarly, the tax basis of the Pre-funded Warrant should carry over to the Common Shares received upon exercise, increased by the exercise price of CAD$0.001 per share. However, such characterization is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may treat the Pre-funded Warrants as warrants to acquire Common Shares. If so, the amount and character of a U.S. Holder's gain with respect to an investment in Pre-funded Warrants could change, and the &#8220;QEF Election&#8221; described below may not be effective with respect to the Pre-funded Warrants to mitigate PFIC consequences in the event that the Company is classified as a PFIC. Accordingly, each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the risks associated with the acquisition of a Pre-funded Warrant pursuant to this Offering (including potential alternative characterizations). The balance of this discussion generally assumes that the characterization described above is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;"><b>U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Exercise, Expiration or Disposition of Warrants</b></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">The following discussion describes the general rules applicable to the exercise, expiration or disposition of the Warrants, but is subject in its entirety to the special rules described below under the heading &#8220;<i>Passive Foreign Investment Company (&#8220;PFIC&#8221;) Rules&#8221;</i>.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Exercise of Warrants</u></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">A U.S. Holder should not recognize gain or loss on the exercise of a Warrant and related receipt of a Warrant Share (unless cash is received in lieu of the issuance of a fractional Warrant Share). A U.S. Holder's initial tax basis in the Warrant Share received on the exercise of a Warrant should be equal to the sum of (a) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such Warrant plus (b) the exercise price paid by such U.S. Holder on the exercise of such Warrant. It is unclear whether a U.S. Holder's holding period for the Warrant Share received on the exercise of a Warrant would commence on the date of exercise of the Warrant or the day following the date of exercise of the Warrant. If the Company is a PFIC, a U.S. Holder's holding period for the Warrant Share for PFIC purposes will begin on the date on which such U.S. Holder acquired the Warrant.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;"><u>Disposition of Warrants</u></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of a Warrant in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Warrant sold or otherwise disposed of.&#160; Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, any such gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Warrant is held for more than one year.&#160; Deductions for capital losses are subject to complex limitations under the Code.&#160;</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;"><u>Expiration of Warrants Without Exercise</u></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">Upon the lapse or expiration of a Warrant, a U.S. Holder will recognize a loss in an amount equal to such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Warrant. Any such loss generally will be a capital loss and will be long-term capital loss if the Warrants are held for more than one year. Deductions for capital losses are subject to complex limitations under the Code.</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;"><u>Certain Adjustments to the Warrants</u></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; text-align: justify;">Under Section 305 of the Code, an adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares that will be issued on the exercise of the Warrants, or an adjustment to the exercise price of the Warrants, may be treated as a constructive distribution to a U.S. Holder of the Warrants if, and to the extent that, such adjustment has the effect of increasing such U.S. Holder's proportionate interest in the &#8220;earnings and profits&#8221; of the Company or the Company&#8217;s assets, depending on the circumstances of such adjustment (for example, if such adjustment is to compensate for a distribution of cash or other property to the shareholders).&#160; Adjustments to the exercise price of Warrants made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula that has the effect of preventing dilution of the interest of the holders of the Warrants should generally not be considered to result in a constructive distribution.&#160; Any such constructive distribution would be taxable whether or not there is an actual distribution of cash or other property.&#160;(See more detailed discussion of the rules applicable to distributions made by the Company at &#8220;&#8212;<i>Taxation of </i><i>Distributions on Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants and Warrant Shares</i>&#8221; below).</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following discussion describes the general rules applicable to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, and Warrant Shares, but is subject in its entirety to the rules described below under the heading &#8220;<i>Passive Foreign Investment Company (&#8220;PFIC&#8221;) Rules&#8221;</i>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Taxation of Distributions on Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrant Shares</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to a Common Share, Pre-funded Warrant, a Common Share received upon exercise of a Pre-funded Warrant, or Warrant Share (as well as any constructive distribution on a Warrant as described above) will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any foreign income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current and accumulated &#8220;earnings and profits&#8221; of the Company, as computed under U.S. federal income tax principles. A dividend generally will be taxed to a U.S. Holder at ordinary income tax rates if the Company is a PFIC for the tax year of such distribution or the preceding tax year. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated &#8220;earnings and profits&#8221; of the Company, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares, as applicable, and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares, as applicable (see &#8220;<i>Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants,</i> <i>and/or Warrant Shares</i>&#8221; below). However, the Company may not maintain the calculations of its earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder should therefore assume that any distribution by the Company with respect to the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares will constitute ordinary dividend income. Dividends received on Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares by corporate U.S. Holders generally will not be eligible for the &#8220;dividends received deduction&#8221;. Subject to applicable limitations and provided the Company is eligible for the benefits of the Convention or the Common Shares are readily tradable on a United States securities market, dividends paid by the Company to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains for dividends, provided certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, including that the Company not be classified as a PFIC (as defined below) in the tax year of distribution or in the preceding tax year. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, and/or Warrant Shares </u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder&#8217;s tax basis in such Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Any such gain or loss recognized on such sale or other disposition generally will be capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other disposition, such Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares, as applicable, are held for longer than one year.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Passive Foreign Investment Company ("PFIC") Rules</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If the Company were to constitute a PFIC for any year during a U.S. Holder&#8217;s holding period for its Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, then certain potentially adverse rules would affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder resulting from the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares. The Company believes that it was not a PFIC for its most recently completed tax year. Based on current business plans and financial expectations, the Company expects that it likely will not be a PFIC for its current tax year. The Company&#8217;s PFIC classification for its current or future tax years may depend on, among other things, how quickly the Company may raise cash pursuant to this Offering, the manner in which, and how quickly, the Company utilizes its cash on hand and the cash proceeds received from this Offering, as well as on changes in the market value of its Common Shares. Whether the Company is a PFIC for any taxable year will also depend on the composition of its income and the composition, nature and value of its assets from time to time (including the value of its goodwill, which may be determined by reference to the value of the Common Shares, which could fluctuate). &#160;Additionally, the analysis depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of the Company as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested.&#160; PFIC classification is fundamentally factual in nature, generally cannot be determined until the close of the tax year in question, and is determined annually.&#160; Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Company has never been, is not, and will not become a PFIC for any tax year during which U.S. Holders hold Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition, U.S. Holders of PFICs are required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations and/or other IRS guidance may require, which filing obligation would generally commence in the first tax year in which the Company is classified as a PFIC and in which such U.S. Holder holds Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, or Warrant Shares. A failure to satisfy such reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8621 annually.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Company generally will be a PFIC if, after the application of certain &#8220;look-through&#8221; rules with respect to subsidiaries in which the Company holds at least 25% of the value of such subsidiary, for a tax year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of the Company for such tax year is passive income (the &#8220;income test&#8221;) or (b) 50% or more of the value of the Company&#8217;s assets either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the &#8220;asset test&#8221;), based on the quarterly average of the fair market value of such assets. &#8220;Gross income&#8221; generally includes all sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and incidental or outside operations or sources, and &#8220;passive income&#8221; generally includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If the Company were a PFIC in any tax year during which a U.S. Holder held Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, such holder generally would be subject to special rules under Section 1291 of the Code with respect to &#8220;excess distributions&#8221; made by the Company on, and gain from the disposition of, Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants, or Warrant Shares, as applicable. An &#8220;excess distribution&#8221; generally is defined as the excess of distributions with respect to the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, as applicable, received by a U.S Holder in any tax year over 125% of the average annual distributions such U.S. Holder has received from the Company during the shorter of the three preceding tax years, or such U.S. Holder&#8217;s holding period for the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, as applicable. Generally, a U.S. Holder would be required to allocate any excess distribution or gain from the disposition of the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares ratably over its holding period for the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares, as applicable. Such amounts allocated to the year of the disposition or excess distribution would be taxed as ordinary income, and amounts allocated to prior tax years would be taxed as ordinary income at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year and an interest charge at a rate applicable to underpayments of tax would apply.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">While there are U.S. federal income tax elections that sometimes can be made to mitigate these adverse tax consequences (including the &#8220;<b>QEF Election</b>&#8221; under Section 1295 of the Code and the &#8220;<b>Mark-to-Market Election</b>&#8221; under Section 1296 of the Code), such elections are available in limited circumstances and must be made in a timely manner. &#160;Under proposed Treasury Regulations, if a U.S. Holder has an option, warrant, or other right to acquire stock of a PFIC (such as the Warrants), such option, warrant or right is considered to be PFIC stock subject to the default rules of Section 1291 of the Code that apply to "excess distributions" and dispositions as described above.&#160; However, under the proposed Treasury Regulations, for the purposes of the PFIC rules, the holding period for any Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of Warrants will begin on the date a U.S. Holder acquires the Warrants (and not the date the Warrants are exercised). This will impact the effectiveness or availability, as applicable, and consequences, of the QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election with respect to the Warrant Shares. Thus, a U.S. Holder will have to account for Common Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants and Warrant Shares under the PFIC rules and the applicable elections differently. In addition, a QEF Election will not be effective respect to the Warrants and it is unclear whether the Mark-to-Market Election may be made with respect to the Warrants. And, a Mark-to-Market Election will generally not be available with respect to the Pre-funded Warrants.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">U.S. Holders should be aware that, for each tax year, if any, that the Company is a PFIC, the Company can provide no assurances that it will satisfy the record-keeping requirements of a PFIC, or that it will make available to U.S. Holders the information such U.S. Holders require to make a QEF Election with respect to the Company or any subsidiary that also is classified as a PFIC.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Certain additional adverse rules may apply with respect to a U.S. Holder if the Company is a PFIC, regardless of whether the U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election. These rules include special rules that apply to the amount of foreign tax credit that a U.S. Holder may claim on a distribution from a PFIC. Subject to these special rules, foreign taxes paid with respect to any distribution in respect of stock in a PFIC are generally eligible for the foreign tax credit. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to the ownership and disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares and the availability of certain U.S. tax elections under the PFIC rules.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The amount of any distribution paid to a U.S. Holder in foreign currency, or payment received on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt or, if applicable, the date of settlement if the Common Shares are traded on an established securities market (regardless of whether such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time). A U.S. Holder will have a tax basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Similarly, a U.S. Holder who converts U.S. dollars into Canadian dollars to fund the exercise price of a Pre-funded Warrant will have a tax basis in such Canadian dollars as of the date of exchange. Any U.S. Holder who converts or otherwise disposes (including the payment of the exercise price of the Pre-funded Warrant) of the foreign currency after the date of receipt may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Foreign Tax Credit</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Dividends paid on the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares will be treated as foreign-source income, and generally will be treated as &#8220;passive category income&#8221; or &#8220;general category income&#8221; for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Any gain or loss recognized on a sale or other disposition of Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares generally will be United States source gain or loss. Certain U.S. Holders that are eligible for the benefits of the Convention may elect to treat such gain or loss as Canadian source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. The Code applies various complex limitations on the amount of foreign taxes that may be claimed as a credit by U.S. taxpayers. In addition, Treasury Regulations that apply to foreign taxes paid or accrued (the &#8220;<b>Foreign Tax Credit Regulations</b>&#8221;) impose additional requirements for Canadian withholding taxes to be eligible for a foreign tax credit, and there can be no assurance that those requirements will be satisfied. The Treasury Department has released guidance temporarily pausing the application of certain of the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations.</p>

    <hr style="page-break-after: always; text-align: center;" width="100%" size="5" color="black" noshade="noshade"><a name="page_132"></a>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Subject to the PFIC rules and the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations, each as discussed above, a U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on the Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, or Warrant Shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income that is subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid or accrued (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year. The foreign tax credit rules are complex and involve the application of rules that depend on a U.S. Holder&#8217;s particular circumstances. Accordingly, each U.S.&#160;Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Backup Withholding and Information Reporting</u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Under U.S. federal income tax law and Treasury Regulations, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a foreign corporation. For example, U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties) are imposed on U.S. Holders that hold certain specified foreign financial assets in excess of certain threshold amounts. The definition of specified foreign financial assets includes not only financial accounts maintained in foreign financial institutions, but also, unless held in accounts maintained by a financial institution, any stock or security issued by a non-U.S. person, any financial instrument or contract held for investment that has an issuer or counterparty other than a U.S. person and any interest in a foreign entity. U.S. Holders may be subject to these reporting requirements unless their Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares are held in an account at certain financial institutions. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing information returns, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8938.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Payments made within the U.S., or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, and proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Common Shares, Pre-funded Warrants, Common Shares received upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants, Warrants or Warrant Shares generally may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, currently at the rate of 24%, if a U.S. Holder (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder&#8217;s correct U.S. taxpayer identification number (generally on IRS Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. taxpayer identification number, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding tax. However, certain exempt persons, such as U.S. Holders that are corporations, generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules generally will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder&#8217;s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS in a timely manner.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The discussion of reporting requirements set forth above is not intended to constitute a complete description of all reporting requirements that may apply to a U.S. Holder. A failure to satisfy certain reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax, and under certain circumstances, such an extension may apply to assessments of amounts unrelated to any unsatisfied reporting requirement. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO U.S. HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP, AND DISPOSITION OF COMMON SHARES, PRE-FUNDED WARRANTS, COMMON SHARES RECEIVED UPON EXERCISE OF THE PRE-FUNDED WARRANTS, WARRANTS AND WARRANT SHARES. U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO THEM IN LIGHT OF THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>MATERIAL CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS </b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The following is a general summary, as of the date hereof, of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the holding and disposition of Common Shares and Pre-funded Warrants (collectively, the "Securities"), as the case may be, acquired pursuant to this offering by a holder who, at all relevant times, (a) for the purposes of the <i>Income Tax Act</i> (Canada) (the "Tax Act"), (i) is not resident, or deemed to be resident, in Canada, (ii) deals at arm's length with, and is not affiliated with, the Company, (iii) beneficially owns&#160; the Securities as capital property, (iv) does not use or hold the Securities in the course of carrying on, or otherwise in connection with, a business or a part of a business carried on or deemed to be carried on in Canada, and (v) is not a "registered non-resident insurer" or "authorized foreign bank" within the meaning of the Tax Act, or other holder of special status, and (b) for the purposes of the <i>Canada-United States Income Tax Convention</i> (1980), as amended (the "Convention"), is a resident of the U.S., has never been a resident of Canada, does not have and has not had, at any time, a permanent establishment or fixed base in Canada, and is a qualifying person or otherwise qualifies for the full benefits of the Convention. Securities will generally be considered to be capital property to a holder unless such Securities are held in the course of carrying on a business of buying or selling securities or an adventure or concern in the nature of trade. Holders who meet all the criteria in clauses (a) and (b) are referred to herein as a "U.S. Holder" or "U.S. Holders."</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This summary does not deal with special situations, such as the particular circumstances of traders or dealers or holders who have entered or will enter into a "derivative forward agreement" (as defined in the Tax Act) in respect of any of the Securities. Such holders and other holders who do not meet the criteria in clauses (a) and (b) should consult their own tax advisors.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder (the "Regulations") and counsel's understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA") made publicly available prior to the date hereof. It also takes into account all proposed amendments to the Tax Act and the Regulations publicly released by the Minister of Finance (Canada) (the "Tax Proposals") prior to the date hereof and assumes that all such Tax Proposals will be enacted as currently proposed. No assurance can be given that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in the form proposed or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law, whether by way of legislative, judicial or administrative action or interpretation, nor does it take into account tax laws of any province or territory of Canada or of any other jurisdiction outside Canada.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Holder and no representation with respect to the federal income tax consequences to any particular U.S. Holder or prospective U.S. Holder is made. The tax consequences to a U.S. Holder will depend on the holder's particular circumstances. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors for advice with respect to their own particular circumstances.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Currency Conversion </b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In general, for purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of the Securities must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the applicable exchange rate quoted by the Bank of Canada for the relevant day or such other rate of exchange that is acceptable to the CRA.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Exercise or Expiry of Pre-funded Warrants </b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">No gain or loss will be realized by a U.S. Holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant upon the exercise of such Pre-Funded Warrant for Common Shares. When a Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised, the U.S. Holder's cost of the Common Share acquired thereby will be equal to the adjusted cost base of the Pre-Funded Warrant to such U.S. Holder, plus the amount paid by such U.S. Holder on the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant. For the purpose of computing the adjusted cost base to a U.S. Holder of the Common Shares acquired on the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant, the cost of such Common Shares must be averaged with the adjusted cost base to such U.S. Holder of all other Common Shares (if any) held by the U.S. Holder as capital property immediately prior to the exercise of such Pre-funded Warrant.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Dividends</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Amounts paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited as, on account or in lieu of payment, or in satisfaction of, dividends on the Common Shares to a U.S. Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax. Under the Convention, the rate of Canadian withholding tax on dividends paid or credited by the Company to a U.S. Holder that beneficially owns such dividends is generally 15% unless the beneficial owner is a company that owns at least 10% of the Company's voting stock at that time, in which case the rate of Canadian withholding tax is reduced to 5%.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u><b>Dispositions</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Upon the disposition of a Security (but not upon the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant), a U.S. Holder will realize a capital gain in the taxation year of the disposition equal to the amount by which the U.S. Holder's proceeds of disposition, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed the adjusted cost base to the U.S. Holder of the particular Security immediately before the disposition or deemed disposition.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A U.S. Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized by such U.S. Holder on a disposition of Securities, unless such Securities constitute "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Tax Act) of the U.S. Holder at the time of disposition and the U.S. Holder is not entitled to relief under the Convention.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Provided that the Common Shares are listed on a designated stock exchange for purposes of the Tax Act (which currently includes the Nasdaq) at the time of the disposition, the Securities, will generally not constitute taxable Canadian property of a U.S. Holder, unless: (a) at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding the disposition or deemed disposition of the Security (as applicable): (i) 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the share capital of the Company were owned by, or belonged to, one or any combination of (x) the U.S. Holder, (y) persons with whom the U.S. Holder did not deal at arm's length (within the meaning of the Tax Act) and (z) partnerships in which the U.S. Holder or a person referred to in (y) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships; and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of the Common Shares was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of: (A) real or immovable property situated in Canada, (B) Canadian resource property (as defined in the Tax Act), (C) timber resource property (as defined in the Tax Act), and (D) options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, property described in any of (A) through (C) above, whether or not such property exists; or (b) the Security (as applicable) is deemed under the Tax Act to be taxable Canadian property.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If a Security is taxable Canadian property to a U.S. Holder, any capital gain realized on the disposition or deemed disposition of such Security may not be subject to Canadian federal income tax pursuant to the terms of the Convention. U.S. Holders whose Securities may be taxable Canadian property should consult their own tax advisors.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">KPMG, the Company's former independent auditor, resigned effective May 15, 2024. MNP was engaged as the Company's new independent auditor, effective May 22, 2024.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As an early-stage company, we have not yet reached significant revenue levels for most of our products and have incurred significant losses and negative operating cash flows from inception that have primarily been funded from financing activities.&#160; We have incurred a $4.9 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $4.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025 (2024 - $3.9 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $5.0 million). At March 31, 2025, we had $4.9 million in working capital (September 30, 2024 - negative $1.1 million) and $47.6 million in accumulated deficit (September 30, 2024 - $42.7 million).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our ability to continue as a going concern and realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon closing timely additional sales orders, timely commercial launch of new products, and the ability to raise additional debt or equity financing, when required. There are various risks and uncertainties affecting our future financial position and our performance including, but not limited to:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">The market acceptance and rate of sales of our product offerings;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Ability to successfully execute our business plan;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Ability to raise additional capital at acceptable terms;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">General local and global economic conditions, including the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the global disruption from Russia's invasion of Ukraine; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Instability in Canada's elected leadership and the threatened tariffs from President Donald Trump.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our strategy to mitigate these material risks and uncertainties is to execute on a timely basis a business plan aimed at continued focus on revenue growth, product development and innovation, improving overall gross margin, managing operating expenses and working capital requirements, and securing additional capital, as needed.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Failure to implement our business plan could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and/or financial performance. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital should it be required in the future. Accordingly, there are material risks and uncertainties that may cast substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.</p>

The gross proceeds from the offering were $4.9 million (US$3.5 million). The fair value of the pre-funded warrants on initial recognition was $1.249, which is the purchase price less the per warrant exercise price of $0.001.</p>

On November 12, 2024, we converted the remaining 3,170,000 pre-funded warrants to CAD denomination which led to the transfer of pre-funded warrants to equity and extinguishing the related warrant liability.

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On January 10, 2024, we issued 222 common shares in a settlement of debt in an amount of approximately $97,615. The debt resulted from a tail obligation relating to services rendered by a third-party consultant which the Company has elected to pay in common shares. The common shares issued pursuant to the debt settlement (signed October 31, 2023) were subject to a four-month hold period pursuant to applicable securities legislation and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>U.S. Public Offering (April 2024)</b></i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On April 9, 2024, we closed a brokered U.S. public offering, resulting in the issuance of 3,500 common shares of KWESST, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.4M (US$1.0M) (the "April 2024 Public Offering").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a part of the April 2024 Public Offering, the Company issued 3,500 common shares and 803,500 pre-funded warrants with an exercise price of $0.21 per share at a public offering price of $184.80 (US$136.50) per common share and $0.881 (US$0.649) per pre-funded warrant, less the underwriting discount.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Brokers' Compensation and Share Issuance Costs</u></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">ThinkEquity acted as sole book-running manager for the April 2024 Public Offering. As compensation for services rendered, the placement agent fees represent $0.4875 per unit (being an aggregate of $101,838 (US$75,002) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued 76,925 warrants to purchase a number of common shares (the "Placement Agent Warrants"), representing 5% of the common shares and pre-funded warrants sold in the April 2024 Public Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, immediately upon issuance and will expire 60 months after the closing of the April 2024 Public Offering at an initial exercise price of $231.63 (US$170.63) per common share. The share issuance costs related to the April 2024 Public Offering that was recognized in the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss was $339,324 and recognized in equity was $269,400.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The fair value of the broker compensation warrants at the closing of the April 2024 Public Offering was $43,868, calculated using the Black Scholes model, and total share issuance costs were $608,724.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 1, 2024, the Company announced the closing of a public offering of 3,810 common shares and 3,809,000 pre-funded warrants at a public offering price of $26.25 (US$18.90) per common share and $1.25 (US$0.90) per pre-funded warrant (the &#8220;November 2024 Offering&#8221;). The gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $4.9 million (US$3.5 million), before deducting placement agent fees of $1.974 (US$1.4175) per common share and $0.094 (US$0.0675) per pre-funded warrant (being an aggregate of $365,726 (US$262,508) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent as compensation for its services 194,450 common share purchase warrants with an exercise price of $32.907 (US$23.625) per common share.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 12, 2024, we amended the pre-funded warrants whereas the exercise price of the warrants, along with all the other settlement amounts, were amended to be denominated in CAD currency, which is consistent with the Company's functional and presentation currency. As a result, we reclassified the remaining unexercised pre-funded warrants as equity instruments under IAS 32. This resulted in a transfer of $3,301,925 from warrant liabilities to equity warrants. The amendments effectively remove the cashless exercise option and ensure settlement in CAD, thereby meeting the criteria for equity classification. We also applied IFRIC 19 to appropriately derecognize the liabilities and recognize the equity effective November 12, 2024.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The remaining 3,170,000 pre-funded warrants were subsequently exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $0.021 per common share, for proceeds of $3,170, during the six months ended March 31, 2025.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In connection with the August 2024 Offering, Wainwright was also granted a tail obligation resulting in earning 7.5% on any equity financing raised from investors introduced to the Company as part of the offering. The November 1, 2024, financing fell entirely within the scope of the tail obligation and resulted in a payment of $362,618 (US$260,661), representing 7.5% of the $4.9 million (US$3.5 million) gross proceeds to Wainwright upon closing of the transaction.</p>

As compensation for services rendered, the placement agent fees were $365,725 (US$262,508) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent as compensation for its services 194,450 common share purchase warrants with an exercise price of $32.907 (US$23.625) per common share. The warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an expiry date of November 1, 2029.

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 11, 2024, we issued 5,669 common shares at a deemed price per common share of $17.64 per share, representing a 20% discount on the closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on the last trading day prior to the news release, for settlement of business expenses incurred while representing the Company in an aggregate amount of $100,000 owed to a company controlled by Mr. David Luxton, Chairman of the Company.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i><b>Private Placement (November 2024)</b></i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 12, 2024, we closed a brokered private placement offering to an institutional accredited investor for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.4 million (approximately US$2.5 million) (the "November 2024 PP").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a part of the November 2024 PP, the Company issued 4,145,200 pre-funded warrants to acquire common shares of the Company on a basis of twenty-one warrants to one common share, with no par value at a price of $0.824 (US$0.592) per pre-funded warrant, inclusive of the exercise price of $0.021 per common share. Each pre-funded warrant was bundled with one common share purchase warrant (&#8220;November 2024 Common Warrant&#8221;) of the Company. Each November 2024 Common Warrant was immediately exercisable on the basis of twenty-one warrants to one common share at an exercise price of $21.63 (US$15.54) per common share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the November 2024 PP. Although the pre-funded warrants are each bundled with a November 2024 Common Warrant, each security is issued separately. Since the instruments were bundled, the Company uses the bifurcation method to determine the fair value of each security. The Black Scholes model was used to determine the fair value of the underlying November 2024 Common Warrant and the remainder of the purchase price was allocated to the pre-funded warrant, resulting in a fair value of the November 2024 Common Warrants of $0.765 and a fair value of $0.06 for the pre-funded warrants.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On February 21 and February 25, 2025, we closed the first and second tranche, respectively, of a brokered private placement offering for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.7 million (the "February 2025 PP").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As part of the February 2025 PP, the Company issued 50,248 common shares and 2,884,179 pre-funded warrants to acquire one common share of the Company. The common shares and pre-funded warrants had a no par value per share at a price of $19.488 per common share and $0.928 per pre-funded warrant, inclusive of the exercise price of $0.021 per common share. Each common share and pre-funded warrant was bundled with one common share purchase warrant (&#8220;February 2025 Common Warrant&#8221;) of the Company. Each February 2025 Common Warrant is immediately exercisable and entitles the holder to acquire one common share for every 21 February 2025 Common Warrant exercised at an exercise price of $24.36 per common share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the February 2025 PP. Although the common shares and pre-funded warrants are each bundled with a February 2025 Common Warrant, each security is issued separately. Since the instruments were bundled, the Company uses the bifurcation method to determine the fair value of each security. The Black Scholes model was used to determine the fair value of the underlying February 2025 Common Warrant and the remainder of the purchase price was allocated to the common share or pre-funded warrant, resulting in a fair value of the first tranche of the February 2025 Common Warrants of $0.58 and $0.55 and a fair value of $7.308 for the common shares and $0.348 for the pre-funded warrants.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In connection with the August 2024 Offering, Wainwright was also granted a tail obligation resulting in earning 7.5% on any equity financing raised from investors introduced to the Company as part of the offering. The February 2025 PP fell mostly within the scope of the tail obligation and resulted in a payment of $244,128, representing 7.5% of the gross proceeds, within the scope of the tail obligation, to Wainwright upon closing of the transaction.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">ThinkEquity acted as sole placement agent for the Offering. As compensation for services rendered, the Company (i) paid to ThinkEquity, at the closing of the February 2025 PP, a cash fee equal to $279,338, representing 7.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the February 2025 PP; and (ii) issued to ThinkEquity or its designees 196,970 warrants (&#8220;February 2025 Placement Agent Warrants&#8221;) equal to 105% of the common shares and 5% of the pre-funded warrants sold in the February 2025 PP. The February 2025 Placement Agent Warrants are immediately exercisable, and entitle the holder to acquire one common share for every 21 February 2025 Placement Agent Warrants exercised at an exercise price of $24.36 per common share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the February 2025 PP.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The fair value of the broker compensation warrants at the closing of the February 2025 PP was $114,046, calculated using the Black Scholes model.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The share issuance costs related to the February 2025 PP that were recognized in equity were $927,219, inclusive of the broker compensation warrants.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the three and six months ended March 31, 2025, there were no material changes to our financial risks as disclosed in Note 23 of the Annual Financial Statements, except for the following:</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the three and six months ended March 31, 2025, we raised gross proceeds of $4.9 million (US$3.5 million) in the November 2024 Offering (see Note 11(a)), including the issuance of warrants with an exercise price denominated in U.S. dollars in the November U.S. Public Offering (see Note 10). Warrants exercised in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 resulted in proceeds of $0.8 million (US$0.6 million). On November 12, 2024, the warrants were subsequently converted to CAD denomination and extinguished from liabilities as they were transferred to equity. We also raised gross proceeds of $3.4 million (US$2.5 million) in the November 2024 PP (see Note 11(a)), including the issuance of warrants with an exercise price denominated in CAD dollars in the November Private Placement (see Note 11(a)). Although the financing was denominated in CAD, the terms of the deal allowed for the proceeds to be sent to the Company in U.S. dollars for convenience. We also raised gross proceeds of $3.7 million in the February 2025 PP (see Note 11(a)), including the issuance of warrants with an exercise price denominated in CAD dollars in the February Private Placement (see Note 11(a)). Although the financing was denominated in CAD, the terms of the deal allowed for the proceeds to be sent to the Company in U.S. dollars for convenience. Also, certain of our revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars and we also procure certain raw materials denominated in U.S. dollars for product development. Accordingly, we are exposed to the U.S. dollar currency. Where a natural hedge cannot be achieved, a significant change in the U.S. dollar currency could have a significant effect on our financial performance, financial position and cash flows. Currently, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge the U.S. dollar exposure. Throughout the year we maintained the majority of our cash assets in U.S. dollars and converted to CAD as needed as we primarily received funds from financing in U.S. dollars.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><b>Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of DEFSEC Technologies Inc. (Formerly KWESST Micro Systems Inc.) (the &#8220;Company") as at September 30, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders&#8217; equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the &#8220;consolidated financial statements&#8221;).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at September 30, 2024, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with IFRS<sup>&#174;</sup> Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have also audited the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the 2025 reverse stock split as described in note 1(b) and the effect of the stock split as described in Note 4, 12, 15, 16 and 17 to the 2023 and 2022 consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2023 and 2022 consolidated financial statements of the Company other than with respect to the adjustments above and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2023 and 2022 consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2(a) of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered a net loss and negative cash flows, negative working capital and has an accumulated deficit which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2(a). The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.</p>

Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on April 23, 2025, received one issued and outstanding common share of DEFSEC in exchange for twenty-one outstanding common shares of DEFSEC. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2025 Reverse Split.

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In August 2022, we submitted a Form F-1 Registration Statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and applied to have its common shares listed on the Nasdaq.&#160; In connection with DEFSEC's listing application on Nasdaq, we effected a seventy for one (70-for-1) reverse stock split of its common stock on October 28, 2022 (the "2022 Reverse Split"). Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on October 28, 2022, received one issued and outstanding common share of DEFSEC in exchange for seventy outstanding common shares of DEFSEC. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2022 Reverse Split.&#160; All fractional shares created by the 2022 Reverse Split were rounded to the nearest whole number of common shares, with any fractional interest representing 0.5 or more common shares entitling holders thereof to receive one whole common share.&#160;</p>

The restricted share units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") have also been adjusted for the 2022 Reverse Split. While the number of warrants has not changed as a result of the Reverse Split, the conversion rate for each warrant was adjusted from one common share to 0.01428571 common share.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes we will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and can realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As an early-stage company, we have not yet reached significant revenue levels for most of our products and have incurred significant losses and negative operating cash flows from inception that have primarily been funded from financing activities. We have incurred a $7.4 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of approximately $9.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2024 (2023 - $9.3 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $14.1 million, 2022 - $10.5 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $4.3 million). At September 30, 2024, we had negative working capital of $1.1 million (2023 - positive working capital of $0.5 million) and $42.7 million in deficit (September 30, 2023 - $35.2 million).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our ability to continue as a going concern and realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon closing timely additional sales orders, timely commercial launch of new products, and the ability to raise additional debt or equity financing, when required. There are various risks and uncertainties affecting our future financial position and our performance including, but not limited to:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">The market acceptance and rate of sales of our product offerings;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Ability to successfully execute our business plan;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Ability to raise additional capital at acceptable terms;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">General local and global economic conditions, including the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the global disruption from Russia's invasion of Ukraine.</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Instability in Canada's elected leadership and the threatened tariffs from President Elect Donald Trump.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our strategy to mitigate these material risks and uncertainties is to execute timely a business plan aimed at continued focus on revenue growth, product development and innovation, improving overall gross profit, managing operating expenses and working capital requirements, and securing additional capital, as needed.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Failure to implement our business plan could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and/or financial performance. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital as they are required in the future. Accordingly, there are material risks and uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 22.5pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Control is achieved where we have the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities, are exposed to, or have rights to, variable returns from our involvement with the entity and have the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of products or services to customers at an amount that reflects the transaction price we expect to receive in exchange for the products or services. Our contracts with customers may include the delivery of multiple products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. The accounting for a contract or contracts with a customer that contain multiple performance obligations requires us to allocate the contract or contracts transaction price to the identified distinct performance obligations based on the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized, for each performance obligation, either over a period of time or at a point in time, depending on which method reflects the transfer of control of the goods or services underlying the particular obligation to the customer. Contracts based on task oriented, time and materials is measured based on agreed-upon hourly rates, direct labor hours expended and material costs incurred and billed and recognized on a monthly basis. For product sales, revenue is recognized when the Company transfers control of the product to the customer. Control of the product transfers when the customer takes delivery of the product.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For performance obligations satisfied over time, we recognize revenue over time using an input method, based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion, to measure progress toward satisfying such performance obligation (for non-recurring engineering services, the input method is based on hours). Under this method, costs that do not contribute to the performance of DEFSEC in transferring control of goods or services to the customer are excluded from the measurement of progress toward satisfying the performance obligation. In certain other situations, we might recognize revenue at a point in time, when the criteria to recognize revenue over time are not met. In any event, when the total anticipated costs exceed the total anticipated revenues on a contract, such a loss is recognized in its entirety in the period it becomes known.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We may enter into contractual arrangements with a customer to deliver services on one project with respect to more than one performance obligation, such as non-recurring engineering, procurement, and training. When entering into such arrangements, we allocate the transaction price by reference to the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. Accordingly, when such arrangements exist on the same project, the value of each performance obligation is based on its stand-alone price and recognized according to the respective revenue recognition methods described above. For example, for non-recurring engineering services rendered over a contract period the revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method; whereas for training services the revenue is recognized after the training is delivered (i.e. point in time).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We account for a contract modification, which consists of a change in the scope or price (or both) of a contract, as a separate contract when the remaining goods or services to be delivered after the modification are distinct from those delivered prior to the modification and the price of the contract increases by an amount of consideration to a price which reflects DEFSEC's stand-alone selling price of the additional promised goods or services. When the contract modification is not accounted for as a separate contract, we recognize an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis at the date of contract modification.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The timing of revenue recognition often differs from performance payment schedules, resulting in revenue that has been earned but not billed. These amounts are included in unbilled receivables. Amounts billed in accordance with customer contracts, but not yet earned, are recorded and presented as part of contract liabilities.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0pt; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">When a contract includes a significant financing component, the value of such component is excluded from the transaction price and is recognized separately as finance income or expense, as applicable.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We account for business combinations using the acquisition method. Goodwill arising on acquisitions is measured as the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net recognized amount of the estimated fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured as of the acquisition date.&#160; Transaction costs that we incur in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. We use our best estimates and assumptions to reasonably value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, and these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with a corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in profit or loss.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Where the total purchase consideration is less than the fair value of identifiable net assets, we recognize a gain on acquisition.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Trade and other receivables without a significant financing component are initially measured at the transaction price. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We determine the classification of our financial assets on the basis of both the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset. Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless we change our business model for managing financial assets.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows, and its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest of the principal amount outstanding. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are measured using the effective interest method. At September 30, 2024, we classified the following as amortized cost:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Cash and cash equivalents</li>

        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">Lease deposit (non-current other asset)</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">All financial assets not classified and measured at amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. At September 30, 2024, we did not have financial assets classified as FVOCI or FVTPL.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Expected credit losses</i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We measure a loss allowance based on the lifetime expected credit losses. The Company has applied the simplified method approach to recognize the lifetime expected credit losses that are estimated based on factors such as our past experience of collecting payments, the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables, financial difficulty of the borrower, and it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization.</p>

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost being determined using the weighted average cost method. The cost of WIP and finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, direct labour, and overhead. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. At each reporting period, management estimates the provision for obsolete and slow-moving inventory which may be reversed in subsequent periods, should the value subsequently be recovered.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost comprises the fair value of consideration given to acquire or construct an asset and includes the direct charges associated with bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for putting it into use along with the future cost of dismantling and removing the asset. These assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method as this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.</p>

If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets or groups of assets (the "cash-generating unit, or CGU"). If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so long as the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the CGU in prior years.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">At inception of a contract, we assess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The lease obligation is measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease, discounted using its incremental borrowing rate at the inception of the lease. The right-of-use asset is initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. The assets are depreciated to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the lease term using the straight-line method as this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits. The lease term includes periods covered by an option to extend if we are reasonably certain to exercise that option.&#160; In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, our incremental borrowing rate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in our estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if we change our assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension, or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use asset or, is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">We have elected to apply the practical expedient not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Development expenditure is capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and we have the intention and sufficient resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalized in respect of development activities includes the cost of materials, direct labor and overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and capitalized borrowing costs. Other development expenditures are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.</p>

All other expenditures, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Acquired intangible assets consist of open customer orders, tradenames, customer relationships, patents, and technology assets acquired either through an asset purchase or a business combination transaction. These intangible assets are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses.&#160; For open customer orders, we reduce the amount when we have delivered under the customer contract, with an offset to accounts receivable (i.e. there is no revenue recognized for acquired open customer orders). Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Amortization begins when the related acquired technology is commercialized.&#160; We anticipate the estimated useful life for the current technology assets to be five years once commercialized.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-indent: -21.25pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">(iv)<font style="width: 6.81pt; text-indent: 0pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font>Amortization</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Amortization is a systematic allocation of the amortizable amount of an intangible asset of its useful life. The amortizable amount is the cost of the asset less its estimated residual value. We recognize in profit or loss on a sales-based rate over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets from the date they are available for use, since this method most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in each asset. Where a sales-based rate could not be determined, the straight-line approach is used.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Internally generated intangible assets are not systematically amortized as long as they are not available for use i.e. they are not yet in working condition for their intended use. Accordingly, intangible assets such as development costs are assessed for impairment at least once a year, until such date as they are available for use.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 42.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">All intangible assets are periodically reviewed for impairment. Management assesses intangible assets for triggers of impairment, including ability to produce future cash flows and the investments required to reach marketability. The estimated present value of future cash flows associated with the intangible asset is determined and an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between this amount and the carrying amount as follows: the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to estimated present value of the future cash flows associated with the asset, discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate, and the resulting loss is directly recognized in profit or loss for the period.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, we have a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the liability. The accretion of the discount is recognized as a finance cost.</p>

Current and deferred income taxes are recognized as an expense and included in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction which is recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in shareholder's equity.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Current income tax</i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Current tax expense is the amount of income taxes payable (recoverable) in respect of the taxable income (tax loss) for a period. Current liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities, using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Deferred income tax</i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the temporary differences between transactions and carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that have been included in the consolidated financial statements and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred income taxes are provided for using the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between the tax and financial statement bases of assets and liabilities and for certain carry-forward items. Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of the enactment or substantive enactment. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority, and we intend to settle our current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.</p>

Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Related party transactions are in the normal course of business and have commercial substance.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The grant date fair value of equity-settled share-based awards is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. For stock options, the grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option model. For share units, the grant date fair value is based on DEFSEC's closing stock price. Each tranche of an award is considered a separate award with its own vesting period and grand date fair value. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted for estimated forfeitures.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The Company has adopted a residual method with respect to the measurement of common shares and warrants issued as units. Warrants attached to units are valued based on the fair value of the warrants using the Black Scholes option pricing model and the share price at the time of financing, and the difference between the proceeds raised and the value assigned to the warrants is the residual fair value of the shares. The proceeds from the issue of the units are allocated between share capital and warrants. In situations when the warrants are categorized as FVTPL the value associated with the warrants is presented as a liability. If and when the warrants are exercised, the applicable amounts of warrants or liability are transferred to share capital. Any consideration paid on the exercise of the warrants is credited to share capital.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The financial statements of DEFSEC and its Canadian wholly owned subsidiaries are measured using CAD as the functional currency. Transactions in currencies other than in CAD are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the rates at the date of the transaction and are not subsequently retranslated.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><i>Foreign operations</i></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The financial statements of DEFSEC's U.S. owned subsidiaries are measured using the United States dollar ("USD") as its functional currency. Assets and liabilities have been translated into USD using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which cases the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in shareholders' equity.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using net earnings (loss) over the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We use the treasury stock method to compute the dilutive effect of options, warrants, and similar instruments. Under this method, the dilutive effect on earnings per share is calculated presuming the exercise of outstanding options, warrants, and similar instruments. It assumes that the proceeds of such exercise would be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">However, the calculation of diluted loss per share excludes the effects of various conversions and exercises of options and warrants that would be anti-dilutive.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-indent: -0.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The results of operations of Police Ordnance are included in these consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss from December 16, 2021. For the year ended September 30, 2024, Police Ordnance contributed revenue of $466,211 (2023 - $375,758, 2022 - $355,296) and net loss of $219,220 (2023 - $505,733, 2022 - $198,353) to our consolidated results.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-indent: -0.55pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">If the acquisition had occurred on October 1, 2021, management estimates that Police Ordnance would have contributed approximately $846,600 of revenue and approximately $31,000 of net profit to our operating results for the year ended September 30, 2022, respectively. In determining these amounts, we have assumed that the fair value adjustments that arose on the date of the acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on October 1, 2021.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The balance at September 30, 2024 for PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> represents the acquired technology asset (i.e. intellectual properties), coupled with additional capitalized development costs. As it is available for its intended use, amortization charge was recorded for the year ended September 30, 2024 of $933,541 (2023 - $562,639, 2022 - $nil).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">PARA OPS<sup>TM</sup> was tested for indicators of impairment at September 30, 2024 as it was available for use. The Company determined that there were no indicators of impairment and therefore did not test for impairment.&#160; In fiscal 2023, the Company began amortizing the system then stopped as further development was done on the products. As a result, the Company was required to test for impairment in fiscal 2023. The key assumptions used in determining the recoverable amount was that commercialization was reached in fiscal 2024 and that market penetration would be achieved at prices that would be accepted by the marketplace in fiscal 2025</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company determined that the Phantom System was impaired and the asset was written off. The required investment to advance the system to commercialization is considered to be too high and the technology is no longer viable for the Company's operations. The carrying amount of the Phantom System at the beginning of the fiscal year 2023 was $1,149,585 and additions of $19,855 were made in the fiscal year 2023. The entire carrying amount of $1,169,440 was written off as an impairment to intangible assets included in the general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Net Loss and Comprehensive Loss for the fiscal year 2023. This has resulted in an expense in the consolidated statement of net loss.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On August 25, 2022, we closed two unsecured loans in the amount of USD$200,000 per loan with a third-party lender ("Lender") for an aggregate amount of USD$400,000 (the "August 2022 Loans").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The August 2022 Loans bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, compounded monthly and not in advance, and have a maturity of twelve months, with DEFSEC having the option to repay the whole or any part of the August 2022 Loans, without penalty or premium, at any time prior to the close of business on the maturity date. On repayment of the August 2022 Loans, we will pay 110% of the principal amount plus accrued interest on the August 2022 Loans. As part of the terms of one of the August 2022 Loans, we issued an aggregate of 20 common shares to the Lender (the "Bonus Shares"), being an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of USD$200,000, converted to CAD$ at an exchange rate of $1.2983, divided by the market price of our common shares on the TSX-V at market close on August 24, 2022, being $2,572.50. The Bonus Shares were issued in accordance with applicable prospectus exemptions under Canadian securities laws.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a result of issuing common shares and debt for the first loan of USD$200,000 (or $260,698), in Fiscal 2022 we allocated the gross proceeds to these two financial instruments based on their relative fair value.&#160; To measure the fair value of the loan, we used the income approach and estimated a market discount rate of 24% to discount the future cash flows of the loan resulting in an estimated fair value of $214,893. Accordingly, we allocated $214,893 of the $260,698 to the first loan and $45,804 to share capital for the bonus common shares issued (see Note 16(a)).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Concurrently with the closing of the August 2022 Loans, our Executive Chairman and President and Chief Executive Officer (the "DEFSEC Principals") entered into call option agreements with the Lender whereby the Lender will have the option, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the call option agreements, to purchase 50 common shares held by the DEFSEC Principals at a price of $2,572.50 for a period of five years.&#160; Additional free-trading common shares may be offered by the DEFSEC Principals to the Lender should we elect to proceed with a share-for-debt transaction in connection with one of the Loans. DEFSEC is not a party to the call option agreements.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In connection with the August 2022 Loans, we paid a cash finder's fee to a third-party intermediary in the amount of USD$32,000.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>March 2022 Loans</u></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On March 11, 2022, we closed an unsecured loan financing with various lenders in an aggregate amount of $1,800,000 and an additional $200,000 on March 15, 2022, for a total of $2,000,000 (the "March 2022 Loans"). Certain directors and officers participated in this financing for an aggregate amount of $74,000. The March 2022 Loans bear interest at a rate of 9.0% per annum, compounded monthly and not in advance, and have a maturity of thirteen months, with DEFSEC having the option to repay the whole or any part of the March 2022 Loans, without penalty or premium, at any time prior to the close of business on the maturity date. The principal amount is due only at maturity.&#160; As part of the terms of the March 2022 Loans, we issued an aggregate of 68 bonus common shares to the lenders.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a result of issuing common shares and debt for a total combined cash consideration of $2,000,000, we allocated the gross proceeds to these two financial instruments based on their relative fair value.&#160; To measure the fair value of the March 2022 Loans, we used the income approach and estimated a market discount rate of 22% to discount the future cash flows of the March 2022 Loans resulting in an estimated fair value of $1,634,112.&#160; Accordingly, we allocated $1,634,112 of the $2,000,000 to March 2022 Loans and $365,888 to share capital for the bonus common shares issued (see Note 16(a)).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The total offering costs were $90,636, $74,055 of which was allocated to deferred financing fees and $16,581 allocated to share offering costs. The deferred financing fees are recognized as a reduction of the gross borrowings to be accreted over the life of the March 2022 Loans as a financing cost and the share offering costs were recognized as a reduction to common shares.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>CEBA Term Loans</u></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In December 2020, the Canadian Federal Government amended the CEBA Term Loan program to increase the loan amount by $20,000 to $60,000. We borrowed $40,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, and an additional $20,000 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. As a result of the Police Ordnance Acquisition (see Note 4(a)), we assumed an additional CEBA Term Loan of $40,000 during fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The CEBA Term Loans are initially recorded at fair value, discounted based on our estimated incremental borrowing rate. This resulted in recording a gain on government grant of $3,514 for the year ended September 30, 2021 (2020 - $9,096).</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Effective January 1, 2021, the CEBA Term Loans were automatically converted to a 2-year interest free term loan. This was further amended on January 12, 2022, where the government of Canada announced the repayment deadline for the CEBA Term Loans to qualify for partial loan forgiveness is being extended from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2023, for all eligible borrowers in good standing.

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On December 9, 2022, we closed an underwritten U.S. public offering (the &#8220;U.S. IPO&#8221;) and an underwritten Canadian offering (the &#8220;Canadian Offering&#8221;) for aggregate gross proceeds of CAD$19.4 million (US$14.1 million) (see Note 16(a)). As part of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, we have issued 3,226,392 warrants (the &#8220;2022 Warrants&#8221;) with an exercise price of US$1,050.00 per share. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share.&#160; Additionally, the U.S. underwriter exercised its over-allotment option to purchase:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">199,000 Pre-Funded Warrants which are exercisable for 947 common shares, with an exercise price of US$2.10 per share for proceeds of $3.81 per pre-funded warrant (net of underwriter discount); and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 48.9pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 8.4pt;">375,000 warrants which are exercisable for 1,785 common shares, with an exercise price of US$1,050.00 per share for proceeds of $1.42 per warrant.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Refer to Note 16(a) for further information on the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In accordance with IFRS, the above securities are classified as financial liabilities (referred herein as "warrant liabilities") because the exercise price is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is different to our functional currency (Canadian dollars). Accordingly, the ultimate proceeds in Canadian dollars from the potential exercise of the above securities are not known at inception. These financial liabilities are classified and measured at FVTPL (see Note 3(c)). Gains on revaluation of the warrant liabilities are presented in Other income (expenses) on the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.</p>

Accordingly, at inception, the 2022 Warrants were measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option pricing model (Level 2). We used the following assumptions:</p>

Accordingly, this resulted in issuing 267 common shares and 56,141 warrant liabilities with an exercise price of US$1,050.00 per share and maturing on December 13, 2027. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share. We initially recorded the fair value of the warrant liabilities using the Black Scholes option pricing model with an underlying stock price equivalent to the unit price of US$867.30.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On January 10, 2024, we issued 222 common shares in a settlement of debt in an amount of approximately $97,615. The debt resulted from a tail obligation relating to services rendered by a third-party consultant, which the Company has elected to pay in common shares. The common shares issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement (signed October 31, 2023) are subject to a four-month hold period pursuant to applicable securities legislation and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On April 9, 2024, we closed a brokered US public offering, resulting in the issuance of 3,500 common shares of DEFSEC, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.4M (US$1.0M) (the "April 2024 Public Offering").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As a part of the April 2024 Public Offering, the Company issued 3,500 common shares and 803,500 pre-funded warrants with an exercise price of $0.21 per share ("Pre-funded Warrants") at a public offering price of $184.80 (US$136.50) per share and $0.881 (US$0.649) per Pre-funded Warrant, less the underwriting discount. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">ThinkEquity acted as sole book-running manager for the April 2024 Public Offering. As compensation for services rendered, the placement agent fees represent $10.24 per unit (being an aggregate of $101,838 (US$75,002) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued 76,925 warrants to purchase 366 Common Shares (the "Placement Agent Warrants"), representing 5% of the Common Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the April 2024 Public Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, immediately upon issuance and will expire 60 months after the closing date of the April 2024 Public Offering at an initial exercise price of $231.67 (US$170.63) per Common Share. The share offering costs related to the April 2024 Public Offering that was recognized in the consolidated financial statements of net loss and comprehensive loss was $339,324 and recognized in equity was $269,400.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The fair value of the broker compensation warrants at the closing of the April 2024 Public Offering was $43,868, calculated using the Black Scholes model, and total share offering costs were $608,724.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On December 9, 2022, we closed the U.S. IPO and the Canadian Offering. In the U.S. IPO, we sold 11,904 common shares and 2,500,000 warrants at a public offering price of USD$867.30 per common share and $4.13 per warrant. The warrants have a per share exercise price of USD$1,050.00 and can be exercised immediately. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share. In connection with the closing of the U.S. IPO, the underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 199,000 pre-funded common share purchase warrants (&#8220;Pre-Funded Warrants&#8221;) at USD$4.12 (before underwriter discount) and 375,000 option warrants to purchase common shares at USD$0.21 each. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share. A Pre-Funded Warrant is a financial instrument that requires the holder to pay little consideration (exercise price of USD$2.10 per share) to receive the common share upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant (see Note 15). The holder of Pre-Funded Warrants has no voting rights. All of these warrants expire on December 9, 2027.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In the Canadian Offering, we sold 3,459 common shares and 726,392 warrants at a price to the public of USD$867.30 per common share and $4.13 per warrant. The warrants will have a per common share exercise price of USD$1,050.00, are exercisable immediately and expire in five years on December 9, 2027. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 210 warrants for one common share. Effective May 1, 2023, the warrants are listed on the TSX-V under the stock symbol of DFSC.WT.U.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The closing of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $19.4 million (USD $14.1 million), before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The common shares of DEFSEC and the Warrants sold in the U.S. IPO began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols "DFSC" and "DFSCW", respectively, on December 7, 2022.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The U.S. underwriter warrants as well as the Canadian broker options from the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, 134,950 warrants and 50,848 warrants respectively, were accounted for as equity on initial recognition. The U.S. underwriter warrants from the July 2023 Private Placement, 123,637 warrants, was accounted for as equity on initial recognition.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><u>Brokers' Compensation and Share Offering Costs</u></p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As consideration for the services provided in connection with the U.S. IPO, ThinkEquity received: (a) a broker-dealer cash commission of US$835,000 (or CAD$1,138,105) equal to 7.5% of the gross offering proceeds of the U.S. Offering; and (b) underwriter warrants (the "U.S. Underwriter Warrants") to purchase up to 642 common shares equal to 5% of the common shares and pre-funded common share purchase warrants issued under the U.S. Offering. 14,700 U.S. Underwriter Warrants are exercisable to acquire one common share at a price of US$1,084.13 per share, exercisable as of June 4, 2023, and expiring on December 9, 2027.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As consideration for the services provided in connection with the Canadian Offering, PI Financial received: (a) a cash commission of approximately US$210,000 (or CAD$286,230); and (b) 50,848 compensation options (the "Canadian Compensation Options"). Each Canadian Compensation Option is exercisable to acquire one Canadian Unit at a price of US$867.30 per share and expiring on December 9, 2024.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In addition to the above brokers' compensation, we also incurred US$2.1 million share offering costs (or CAD$2.8 million) for the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering, of which CAD$628,262 was incurred and deferred at September 30, 2022.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The total brokers compensation (including fair value of U.S. Underwriter Warrants and Canadian Compensation Options) and share offering costs was US$3.2 million (or CAD$4.4 million). This total was allocated proportionately to the fair value of common shares and to share offering costs for the portion allocated to warrants accounted for as warrant liabilities.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">As part of the July 2023 Offering, the Company issued 7,343 common shares at a price of US$474.60 (CAD$625.80) per common share (each a &#8220;Common Share&#8221;) and 930,548 pre-funded warrants at price of US$2.26 (CAD$2.98) per pre-funded warrant (each a &#8220;Pre-funded Warrant&#8221;), with each Common Share and 210 Pre-funded Warrants of the Company (each a &#8220;Common Warrant&#8221;). 210 Pre-funded Warrants entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of US$0.21 per Common Share, and each Common Warrant is immediately exercisable and 210 Common Warrants entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of US$558.60 (CAD$735.00) per Common Share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the July 2023 Offering. Although the Common Shares and Pre-funded Warrants are each bundled with a Common Warrant, each security is issued separately.</p>

As compensation for services rendered, the Company paid to ThinkEquity a cash fee of $475,013.14 representing 8.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering and issued 123,367 warrants to purchase 587 Common Shares (the "Placement Agent Warrants"), representing 5% of the Common Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, immediately upon issuance and will expire 60 months after the closing date of the Offering at an initial exercise price of US$558.60 (CAD$735.00) per Common Share.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On July 14, 2022, we closed a non-brokered private placement, resulting in the issuance of 108 units of DEFSEC ("July 2022 Units"), at a price of $3,160.50 per July 2022 Unit (the "Issue Price"), for aggregate gross proceeds of $344,000 (the "July 2022 Offering").</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Each July 2022 Unit is comprised of one common share and seventy one-half common share purchase warrant (the "July 2022 Warrants"). Accordingly, we issued 800,000 Warrants exercisable at $59.85 per common share for a period of 24 months from the closing date. Each Warrant converts into 0.000068 common shares or 14,700 warrants for one common share. There was no finder fee paid in this private placement.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Certain of our directors and officers (the "Insiders") purchased 27 Units for a total consideration of $87,500. The issuance of Units to the Insiders constitutes a related party transaction but is exempt from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") as DEFSEC's securities are not listed on any stock exchange identified in Section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 and neither the fair market value of the units issued to the Insiders, nor the fair market value of the entire private placement, exceeds 25% of our market capitalization.</p>

    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Deferred taxes reflect the impact of loss carryforwards and of temporary differences between amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by enacted tax laws. However, DEFSEC has not recorded net deferred tax assets at September 30, 2024 and 2023 on the following deductible temporary differences, due to the uncertainty involved in determining whether these deferred tax assets will be realized upon expiration due to DEFSEC's limited history and cumulative operating losses since its inception.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Under IFRS, the levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt;">Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">The lease deposit, accrued royalties liability, warrant liabilities and borrowings were recorded at fair value at initial recognition.&#160; The fair value measurement for these was Level 2. Subsequently, these were measured at amortized cost and accreted to their nominal value over their respective terms, except warrant liabilities that are measured at fair value. Except for warrant liabilities, the carrying values approximate the fair values. At September 30, 2024, the fair value for accrued royalties liability determined using a discount rate of 24% (2023 - 24%, 2022 - 24%) would be $1,014,212 (2023 - $928,776, 2022 - $869,219, 2021 - $1,105,756).&#160;</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. At September 30, 2024, our loans were all repaid and therefore not subject to interest rate risk. At September 30, 2023, our loans were all repaid and therefore not subject to interest rate risk. At September 30, 2022, our borrowings were all subject to fixed interest rates and therefore these were not subject to interest rate risk.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">For the years ended September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, 10% (2023 - 3%, 2022 - 54%) of the Company's revenue was denominated in U.S. dollar driven by contracts with U.S. prime contractors in the defense sector.&#160; We also procure certain raw materials denominated in U.S. dollar for product development. Accordingly, we are exposed to the U.S. dollar currency. Where a natural hedge cannot be achieved, a significant change in the U.S. dollar currency could have a significant effect on our financial performance, financial position, and cash flows. Currently, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge its U.S. dollar exposure. Throughout the year we maintained the majority of our cash assets in USD and converted to CAD as needed as we primarily raise our funds in USD.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to DEFSEC if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Our credit risk exposure is limited to cash, and trade and other receivables. Refer to Note 5 for the breakdown of our trade and other receivables.&#160; We enter into contracts with either large, financially sound global general contractors or law enforcement agencies, which mitigates the credit risk. At September 30, 2024, our trade receivable was $455,049 (2023 - $68,530, 2022 - $114,877), of which $27,779 was overdue by more than 60 days from law enforcement agencies.</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Liquidity risk is the risk that we will be unable to meet our financial obligations as they become due. Our objective is to ensure that we have sufficient cash to meet our near-term obligations when they become due, under both normal and stressed condition, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking reputational damage to DEFSEC. A key risk in managing liquidity is the degree of uncertainty in our cash flows due to our early stage in operations and the need for additional capital to fund our business strategies (see Note 2(a)).</p>

    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On October 21, 2024, the Company received approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") for the consolidation of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of ten (10) pre-consolidation Shares for each one (1) post-consolidation Share (the "Consolidation"). The Shares began trading on the TSX-V and Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Nasdaq", and together with the TSX-V, the "Exchanges") on a consolidated basis on October 23, 2024.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 1, 2024, the Company announced the closing of a public offering of 3,889,000 pre-funded warrants (&#8220;PFW&#8221;) at a public offering price of $1.25 (US$0.90) per pre-funded warrant. The gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $4.9 million (US$3.5 million), before deducting placement agent fees of $0.094 (US$0.0675) per pre-funded warrant (being an aggregate of $365,726 (US$262,508) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities) and estimated offering expenses were approximately $417,960 (US$300,000). In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent as compensation for its services 194,450 common share purchase warrants with an exercise price of $32.91 (US$23.63) per share. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 21 warrants for one common share.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 11, 2024, the Company issued a total of 5,669 common shares at a deemed price per common share of $17.64 per share, representing a 20% discount on the closing price of the Shares on the TSXV for settlement for reimbursement of business expenses incurred while representing the Company in an aggregate amount of $100,000 owed to a company controlled by Mr. David Luxton, Executive Chairman of the Company.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On November 12, 2024, the Company announced the closing of a brokered private placement offering to an institutional accredited investor for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.4 million (approximately US$2.5 million). As a part of the Offering, the Company issued 4,145,200 pre-funded warrants to acquire common shares of the Company, no par value per share at a price of $0.824 (US$0.592) per pre-funded warrant, inclusive of the exercise price of $0.021 per Common Share. The warrants have a conversion ratio of 21 warrants for one common share. Although the financing was denominated in CAD, the terms of the deal allowed for the proceeds to be sent to the Company in USD for convenience. Each Pre-funded Warrant was bundled with one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each Common Warrant is immediately exercisable and 21 warrants entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $21.63 (US $15.54) per Common Share for a period of 5 years following the closing of the Offering.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">In December 2024, the LEC royalty payment due April 2025, in the amount of $200,000 was paid early to DEFSEC in exchange for a $25,000 reduction resulting in a net payment of $175,000.</p>
    <p style="margin-left: 21.3pt; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Company changed its presentation of the number of warrants to show the actual number of warrants held instead of the representative number of shares upon exercise given the Company's share consolidations in recent years. The change in presentation has no effect on the fair value of the warrants.<font style="color: #7f7f7f;">&#160;</font></p>

    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Section 160 of the BCBCA authorizes companies to indemnify past and present directors, officers and certain other individuals for the liabilities incurred in connection with their services as such (including costs, expenses and settlement payments) in an eligible proceeding, unless such individual did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the company or, in the case of an eligible proceeding other than a civil proceeding, if such individual did not have reasonable grounds for believing his or her conduct in respect of which the proceeding was brought was lawful. In the case of a suit by or on behalf of the corporation or an associated corporation, a court must approve the indemnification.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">Our Notice of Articles provide that we shall indemnify past and present directors against all eligible penalties to which such person is or may be liable, and we will, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonable incurred by such person in respect of that proceeding.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;">On February 25, 2022, we entered into agreements with our directors and certain officers (each an "<b>Indemnitee</b>" under such agreements) to indemnify the Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to certain limitations, against all liabilities, costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnitee in an action or proceeding to which the Indemnitee was made a party by reason of the Indemnitee being an officer or director of (i) our company or (ii) an organization of which our company is a shareholder or creditor if the Indemnitee serves such organization at our request.</p>
