Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and delivered to any Underwriter or to counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, or the sale and purchase of the Offered Units, shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company to each Underwriter as to the matters covered thereby.

The Company has a reasonable basis for making each of the representations set forth in this Section 1. The Company (i) acknowledges that the Underwriters and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 6 hereof, counsel to the Company and counsel to the Underwriters, will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations, and (ii) hereby consents to such reliance.

2. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of the Offered Units and the Underwriters’ Warrant.

(a) The Firm Units. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to sell and issue to the several Underwriters an aggregate of [●] Firm Units, and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective number of Firm Units set forth opposite its name on Schedule A hereto. The purchase price per Firm Unit to be paid by the several Underwriters to the Company shall be $[●].

(b) The First Closing Date. Settlement of the sale and issuance of the Firm Units to be purchased by the Underwriters and payment therefor shall be made at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (or such other place as may be agreed to by the Company and the Representative) at [●] a.m. New York City time, on [●], 2025, or such other time and date not later than [●] p.m. New York City time, on [DATE] as the Representative shall designate by notice to the Company (the time and date of such closing are called the “First Closing Date”). The Company hereby acknowledges that circumstances under which the Representative may provide notice to postpone the First Closing Date as originally scheduled include, but are not limited to, any determination by the Company or the Representative to recirculate to the public copies of an amended or supplemented Prospectus, or a delay as contemplated by the provisions of Section 11 hereof.

(c) The Option Units; Option Closing Date. In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby grants the Option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of [●] Option Units from the Company at the purchase price per Unit to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Units, for the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the Offering. The Option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representative to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Option Units as to which the Underwriters are exercising the Option, and (ii) the time, date and place at which the Option Units will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Units and such Option Units). Any such time and date of delivery of Option Units (if subsequent to the First Closing Date, an “Option Closing Date”) shall be determined by the Representative, and shall not be earlier than three or later than five Business Days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Option Units are to be purchased, (A) each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Option Units (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representative may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Option Units to be purchased as the number of Firm Units set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter on Schedule A hereto bears to the total number of Firm Units, and (B) the Company agrees to sell such number of Option Units (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representative may determine). The Representative may cancel the Option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.

(d) Underwriters’ Warrants. Furthermore, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby agrees to sell and issue to the Underwriters on the First Closing Date, and on each Option Closing Date, if any, Underwriters’ Warrants to purchase the number of our Subordinate Voting Shares equal to 4.0% of the total number of Offered Units sold on the First Closing Date, and on each such Option Closing Date, as applicable. The Underwriters’ Warrants shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time during the period commencing on a date which is 180 days after the date hereof and ending on the 18 month anniversary of the date hereof, at an initial exercise price of $[●] per share, which is equal to 125% of the initial public offering price of the Offered Units. Delivery of the Underwriters’ Warrants shall be made on the First Closing Date, and on each such Option Closing Date, if any, and shall be issued in the name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Underwriters may request.

(e) Public Offering. The Representative hereby advises the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer for sale to the public, initially on the terms set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, their respective portions of the Offered Units as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Representative, in its sole judgment, has determined is advisable and practicable. The Company and the Underwriters acknowledge and agree that the Offered Units may be offered and sold to investors resident in jurisdictions outside of the U.S., and any such offers and sales to investors in Canada will be made by Cantor ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Canada Corporation.

(f) Payment for the Offered Units. Payment for the Offered Units shall be made at the First Closing Date (and, if applicable, at each Option Closing Date) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Company. It is understood that the Representative has been authorized, for its own account and the accounts of the several Underwriters, to accept delivery of, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Firm Units and any Option Units the Underwriters have agreed to purchase. The Representative, individually and not as the Representative of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment for any Offered Units to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds shall not have been received by the Representative by the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for the account of such Underwriter, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

(g) Delivery of the Offered Units. The Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Representative shall otherwise instruct, to the Representative for the accounts of the several Underwriters, the Firm Units at the First Closing Date, against the irrevocable release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor to the account designated by the Company. The Company shall also deliver, or cause to be delivered through the facilities of DTC unless the Representative shall otherwise instruct, to the Representative for the accounts of the several Underwriters, the Option Units the Underwriters have agreed to purchase at the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, against the release of a wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor to the account designated by the Company. If the Representative so elects, delivery of the Offered Units may be made by credit to the account(s) designated by the Representative through DTC’s full fast transfer or Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (or DWAC) programs.

(h) Warrant Agreement. The Offered Warrants shall be issued pursuant to, and shall have the rights and privileges set forth in, a warrant agency agreement, dated on or before the First Closing Date (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Company and Odyssey Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), which Warrant Agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representative.

(a) Delivery of Registration Statement, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus. The Company shall furnish, without charge, (i) to each Representative a signed copy of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto), (ii) to each other Underwriter a conformed copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto), and (iii) to the Representative in New York City, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement and during the period when a prospectus relating to the Offered Units is required by the Securities Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) in connection with the sale of the Offered Units (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), as many copies of the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, and any supplements and amendments thereto or to the Registration Statement as the Representative may reasonably request.

(b) Representative’s’ Review of Proposed Amendments and Supplements.

Prior to amending or supplementing any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, the Company (A) shall furnish to the Representative for review, a reasonable amount of time prior to the time of filing or use of the proposed amendment or supplement, a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement, and (B) shall not file or use any such proposed amendment or supplement without the Representative’s prior written consent.

The Company (i) shall furnish to the Representative for review, a reasonable amount of time prior to the proposed time of filing or use thereof, a copy of each proposed free writing prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Company, and (ii) shall not file, use or refer to any proposed free writing prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto without the Representative’s prior written consent. The Company shall furnish to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Company as such Underwriter may reasonably request. If at any time during the Prospectus Delivery Period (but in any event if at any time through and including the First Closing Date) there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Company conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at such time, not misleading, the Company shall promptly amend or supplement such free writing prospectus so that the statements in such free writing prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not conflict with information contained in the Registration Statement and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at such time, not misleading, as the case may be; provided, however, that prior to amending or supplementing any such free writing prospectus, the Company shall (A) furnish to the Representative for review, a reasonable amount of time prior to the proposed time of filing or use thereof, a copy of such proposed amended or supplemented free writing prospectus, and (B) not file, use or refer to any such amended or supplemented free writing prospectus without the Representative’s prior written consent.

(d) Filing of Underwriter Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company shall not take any action that would result in an Underwriter or the Company being required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that such Underwriter otherwise would not have been required to file thereunder.

(e) Amendments and Supplements to Time of Sale Prospectus. If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Offered Units at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers, and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the Time of Sale Prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, not misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus to comply with applicable Law, the Company shall (subject to Section 3(b) and Section 3(c) hereof) promptly prepare, file with the Commission, and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, not misleading, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable Law.

(f) Canadian Offering Document. The Company shall prepare the LIFE Offering Document, which shall be in a form approved by the Representative and shall file the LIFE Offering Document with the BCSC and the other Canadian Securities Commissions with a filing date not later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day next succeeding the date of this Agreement. Promptly after the effective date of the Registration Statement, and thereafter from time to time, the Company shall deliver to each of the Underwriters, without charge, as many copies of the LIFE Offering Document and any amendment or supplement thereto as the Representative may reasonably request. The Company consents to the use of the LIFE Offering Document and any amendment or supplement thereto by the Underwriters and by all dealers to whom the Offered Units may be sold, both in connection with the offering or sale of the Offered Units and for any period of time thereafter during the Prospectus Delivery Period. If, during the Prospectus Delivery Period any event shall occur that in the judgment of the Company or counsel to the Underwriters should be set forth in the LIFE Offering Document in order to make any statement therein, in the light of the circumstances under which it was made, not misleading (including by omission), or if it is necessary to supplement or amend the LIFE Offering Document to comply with Canadian Securities Laws, the Company shall forthwith prepare and duly file with the BCSC and the other Canadian Securities Commissions an appropriate supplement or amendment thereto, and shall deliver to each of the Underwriters, without charge, such number of copies thereof as the Representative may reasonably request.

(g) Marketing Materials Compliance. During the distribution of the Offered Units (i) the Company may prepare, in consultation with the Representative, any “marketing materials” (as such term is defined in NI 41-101) (“Marketing Materials”), including any template version thereof, to be provided to potential investors in the Offered Units, and shall approve in writing any such Marketing Materials (including any template version thereof), as may reasonably be requested by the Underwriters, and such Marketing Materials shall comply with Canadian Securities Laws and be acceptable in form and substance to the Company and the Underwriters and their respective counsel, each acting reasonably; and (ii) the Representative shall, on behalf of the Underwriters, approve in writing any such Marketing Materials, as contemplated by Canadian Securities Laws and shall not use any such Marketing Materials until such time as the Company confirms in writing that such Marketing Materials have been approved and filed (unless an exemption from filing is available) in accordance with NI 41-101 and NI 44-102.

(h) Certain Notifications and Required Actions. After the date of this Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective and available, including with a current prospectus. The Company shall promptly advise the Representative in writing of: (i) the receipt of any comments of, or requests for additional or supplemental information from, the Commission; (ii) the time and date of any filing of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus, or the Prospectus; (iii) the time and date that any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective; (iv) the issuance by the TSXV or any other securities exchange or trading market on which the Subordinate Voting Shares are then traded quoted of any order preventing or suspending trading in the Subordinate Voting Shares or the use of any prospectus in the Canadian Disclosure Record; or (v) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or any amendment or supplement to any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus or the Prospectus, or of any proceedings to remove, suspend or terminate from listing or quotation the Subordinate Voting Shares from any securities exchange or trading market upon which they are listed for trading or included or designated for quotation, or of the threatening or initiation of any proceedings for any of such purposes. If the TSXV or any other Canadian regulatory authority shall enter an order as described in clause (iii) above or the Commission shall enter any such stop order at any time, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting of each such order at the earliest possible moment. Additionally, the Company agrees that it shall comply with all applicable provisions of Rule 424(b), Rule 433 and Rule 430A under the Securities Act and will use its reasonable efforts to confirm that any filings made by the Company under Rule 424(b) or Rule 433 were received in a timely manner by the Commission.

(i) Amendments and Supplements to the Prospectus and Other Securities Act Matters. If any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus so that the Prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) to a purchaser, not misleading, or if in the opinion of the Representative or counsel for the Underwriters it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with applicable Law, the Company agrees (subject to Section 3(b) and Section 3(c) hereof) to promptly prepare, file with the Commission, and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, amendments or supplements to the Prospectus so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act or any similar rule) to a purchaser, not misleading, or so that the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable Law. Neither the Representative’s consent to, nor delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the Company’s obligations under Section 3(b) or Section 3(c) hereof.

(j) Blue Sky Compliance. The Company shall (i) qualify or register the Offered Securities under (or obtain exemptions from the application of) the U.S. state securities or blue sky Laws, applicable Canadian Securities Laws and any other foreign Laws in jurisdictions designated by the Representative and agreed by the Company, (ii) comply with such Laws, and (iii) continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long as required for the distribution thereof.

For purposes of the foregoing, “Related Securities” shall mean any options, warrants, Proportionate Voting Shares or other rights to acquire Subordinate Voting Shares or any securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares, or to acquire other securities or rights ultimately exchangeable or exercisable for, or convertible into, Subordinate Voting Shares.

The Company agrees to announce ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ intention to release any director or “officer” (within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) of the Company from any of the restrictions imposed by any Lock-up Agreement, by issuing, through a major news service, a press release, in the form set forth in Exhibit C hereto, promptly following the Company’s receipt of any notification from Cantor in which such intention is indicated, but in any event at least two business days prior to the date on which such release or waiver is to become effective; provided, however, that nothing shall prevent ▇▇▇▇▇▇, on behalf of the Underwriters, from announcing the same through a major news service, irrespective of whether the Company has made the required announcement; and provided, further, however, that no such announcement shall be made of any release or waiver granted solely to permit a transfer of securities that is not for value and where the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of a Lock-up Agreement in the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this section shall obligate (or be interpreted to create an obligation of) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to authorize the release of any director or officer of the Company from such Person’s Lock-Up Agreement.

(y) Sanctions.

(i) The Company and each of the Subsidiaries covenant that they will not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds from the Offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person:

(B) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the Offering, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise).

(ii) All sums payable by the Company to the Underwriters under this Agreement shall be paid free and clear of, and without deductions or withholdings of, any present or future taxes or duties, unless the deduction or withholding is required by law, in which case the Company shall pay such additional amount as will result in the receipt by each Underwriter of the full amount that would have been received had no deduction or withholding been made.

(iii) All sums payable to an Underwriter shall be considered exclusive of any value added or similar taxes unless otherwise provided in this Agreement. Where the Company is obliged by applicable Law to pay value added or similar tax on any amount payable hereunder to an Underwriter, the Company shall in addition to the sum payable hereunder pay upon receipt of a proper value added tax invoice issued by the relevant Underwriter an amount equal to any applicable value added or similar tax to the extent the Company has not otherwise made such payment of value added or similar taxes directly.

Each such FINCEN Filing made by the Company will be true, correct, and complete. Following such initial FINCEN Filings, the Company agrees to maintain ongoing compliance with such requirements, as applicable to the Company and, upon reasonable request, to provide to the Underwriters copies of such FINCEN Filings and other evidence of compliance with such requirements for a period of five years following the date hereof.

The Representative, on behalf of the several Underwriters, if any, may, in its sole discretion, waive in writing the performance by the Company of any one or more of the foregoing covenants or extend the time for their performance.

Except as provided in this Section 4, Section 9 or Section 10 hereof, the Underwriters shall pay their own expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel.

5. Covenant of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter severally and not jointly covenants with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that otherwise would not, but for such actions, be required to be filed by the Company under Rule 433(d).

The respective obligations of the several Underwriters hereunder to purchase and pay for the Offered Units as provided herein on the First Closing Date and, with respect to the Option Units, each Option Closing Date, shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company set forth in Section 1 hereof as of the date hereof and as of the First Closing Date as though then made and, with respect to the Option Units, as of each Option Closing Date as though then made, to the timely performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations hereunder, and to each of the following additional conditions:

9. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates and their respective partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls each Underwriter or any affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as follows:

(i) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any preliminary prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus, any Marketing Material, any Section 5(d) Written Communication, the LIFE Offering Document or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, provided that (subject to Section 9(d) hereof) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be delayed, conditioned or withheld; and

(iii) against any and all expenses whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission (whether or not a party), to the extent that any such expense is not paid under clause (i) or clause (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined below).

(b) Indemnification of the Company, its Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and/or the LIFE Offering Document, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 9(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus, any Section 5(d) Written Communication, the LIFE Offering Document, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing), in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Underwriter and furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter or Underwriters expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Underwriter shall be required to indemnify any indemnified party pursuant to this Section 9(b) in any amount in excess of the commissions actually received by it under this Agreement. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Underwriter or Underwriters has furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus, any Section 5(d) Written Communication, the LIFE Offering Document, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing) are the statements set forth in the first paragraph under the heading “Underwriting—Discounts and Commissions and Expenses”, the first, second, and fourth paragraphs under the heading “Underwriting—Market Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions”, and the first, second and third sentences under the heading “Underwriting—Electronic Distribution”, in each case in the Preliminary Prospectus and Prospectus (the “Underwriter Information”).

(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 9 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 9, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provision of this Section 9 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party and (ii) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of, the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any other legal expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (A) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (B) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (C) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), or (D) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action; in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to the indemnified party or parties will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction (plus local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 9 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an express and unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim, and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 9(a)(ii) hereof effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into, and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

10. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of Section 9 is applicable in accordance with its terms, but for any reason is held to be unavailable or insufficient from the Company or the Underwriters, the Company and the Underwriters will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which any indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Offered Units (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by the Underwriters (before deducting expenses) from the sale of Offered Units on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable Law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to the Offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters, the intent of the parties, and their relative knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10 shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 10, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with Section 9(c) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 9 hereof and this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the commissions actually received by it under this Agreement (taking into account, for this purpose, any and all prior amounts contributed by such Underwriter pursuant to this Section 10), and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 10, any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act, any affiliates of the respective Underwriters, and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of the Underwriters or their respective affiliates, will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and/or the LIFE Offering Document will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 10, will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 10 except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9(c) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof and such consent is not unreasonably withheld.

11. Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters. If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date, any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Units that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Offered Units which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Offered Units to be purchased on such date, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Units by other persons, including any of the non-defaulting Underwriters, but, if no such arrangements are made by such date, the other non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, in the proportions that the number of Firm Units set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A hereto bears to the aggregate number of Firm Units set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representative with the consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase the Offered Units which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date, any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Units that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Offered Units which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Offered Units to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Units are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party (other than the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters) to any other party, except that the provisions of Section 4, Section 7, Section 9 and Section 10 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case, either the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 11. Any action taken under this Section 11 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

12. Termination of this Agreement. Prior to the purchase of the Firm Units by the Underwriters on the First Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by the Representative by notice given to the Company if at any time: (a) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or any Canadian Securities Commission, or by the OTC, or trading in securities generally on any market maintained by the OTC shall have been suspended or limited; (b) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of federal, New York, Canadian or Alaskan authorities; (c) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States, Canadian or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’, Canada’s or international political, financial or economic conditions, as in the sole judgment of the Representative is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to market the Offered Units in the manner and on the terms described in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the sale of securities; (d) in the sole judgment of the Representative, there shall have occurred any material adverse change, or any development or event involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the business, properties, earnings, results of operations or prospects of the Company and the Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business; or (e) the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as in the sole judgment of the Representative may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured. Any termination pursuant to this Section 12 shall be without liability on the part of (i) the Company to any Underwriter, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Representative and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 4 or Section 7 hereof or (ii) any Underwriter to the Company; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 9 and Section 10 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Offered Units pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Offered Units and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand; (b) in connection with the Offering and the process leading to such transaction, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal, and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, its shareholders, creditors, or employees, or any other party; (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the Offering or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters), and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company with respect to the Offering, except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company; and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Offering, and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

14. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, its officers, and the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of its or their partners, members, affiliates, directors, officers, or employees, or any controlling person, as the case may be, and, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Units sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

15. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed, hand delivered, or sent by electronic transmission (as contemplated in Section 16 hereof) and confirmed to the parties hereto as follows:

Each party to this Agreement may change such address for notices by sending to the parties to this Agreement written notice of a new address for such purpose.

16. Electronic Notice; Electronic Signature and Delivery.

(a) An electronic communication (“Electronic Notice”) shall be deemed written notice for purposes of this Agreement if sent to the electronic mail address specified by the receiving party under separate cover. Electronic Notice shall be deemed received at the time the party sending Electronic Notice receives verification of receipt by the receiving party. Any party receiving Electronic Notice may request and shall be entitled to receive the notice on paper, in a nonelectronic form (“Nonelectronic Notice”) which shall be sent to the requesting party within ten (10) days of receipt of the written request for a Nonelectronic Notice.

(b) This Agreement may be executed and delivered via electronic mail (including pdf), any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇), or any other transmission method, and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered, and be valid and effective in all respects for all purposes.

17. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Underwriters and their respective successors and the parties referred to in Section 11. References to any of the parties contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that the Representative may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to an affiliate thereof without obtaining the Company’s consent.

18. Partial Unenforceability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

19. Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability; Waiver. This Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary herein, the letter agreement, dated as of July 31, 2025, by and between the Representative and the Company (the “Engagement Letter”), shall survive and be enforceable by the Representatives in accordance with its terms, provided that, (i) in the event of a conflict between the terms of the Engagement Letter and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and (ii) no Person shall be entitled to recover more than once for the same loss, liability, claim, damage or expense whatsoever under this Agreement and the Engagement Letter. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company and the Representative. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable as written by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision shall be given full force and effect to the fullest possible extent that it is valid, legal and enforceable, and the remainder of the terms and provisions herein shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision was not contained herein, but only to the extent that giving effect to such provision and the remainder of the terms and provisions hereof shall be in accordance with the intent of the parties as reflected in this Agreement. No implied waiver by a party shall arise in the absence of a waiver in writing signed by such party. No failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder.

20. GOVERNING LAW AND TIME; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAWS OR CHOICE OF LAW RULE OR PROVISION THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. SPECIFIED TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

21. Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service.

(a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in the city of New York in the borough of Manhattan (the “Specified Courts”) over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or the Offering (each, a “Related Proceeding”). The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such Related Proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding.

(b) The Company hereby irrevocably appoints ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“Kit”) ▇▇▇▇▇, with an office at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as its agent for service of process in any Related Proceeding, and agrees that service of process in any such Related Proceeding may be made upon such agent at the office of such agent. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. The Company represents and warrants that such agent has agreed to act as the Company’s agent for service of process, and the Company agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect. If for any reason, the foregoing person is unwilling or unable to serve in such capacity or has ceased to be an officer or director of the Company, a successor agent for service of process for this purpose shall be promptly identified and duly appointed by the Company’s board of directors.

22. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Underwriters could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company with respect to any sum due from it to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day following receipt by such Underwriter or controlling person of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such Underwriter or controlling person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency. If the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, the Company agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter or controlling person against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, such Underwriter or controlling person agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person hereunder.

23. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Re: Proposed Initial Public Offering by Alaska Silver Corp.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, a securityholder and/or director and/or officer of Alaska Silver Corp., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada (the “Company”), understands that the Company proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., as representative of the several underwriters, if any, named therein (the “Representative”) relating to the proposed U.S. initial public offering (the “Offering”) of units of the Company, each of which is comprised of one subordinate voting share (“Subordinate Voting Share”), no par value per share, of the Company, and one warrant exercisable for one Subordinate Voting Share. The undersigned acknowledges that the underwriters are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this lock-up agreement in conducting the Offering and, at a subsequent date, in entering into the Underwriting Agreement and other underwriting arrangements with the Company with respect to the Offering.

In recognition of the benefit that the Offering will confer upon the undersigned, as a securityholder and/or director and/or officer of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the date that is 120 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not (and will cause any immediate family member not to), without the prior written consent of the Representative, which may withhold its consent in its sole discretion, directly or indirectly, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract to sell or lend, effect any short sale of, establish or increase a Put Equivalent Position (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) or liquidate or decrease any Call Equivalent Position (as defined in Rule 16a-1(b) under the Exchange Act) with respect to, pledge, hypothecate or grant any security interest in, or in any other way transfer or dispose of, any Subordinate Voting Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares, in each case whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), (ii) make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any of the Lock-Up Securities or the filing of any registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement (or an amendment or supplement thereto) in connection therewith, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (iii) enter into any swap, hedge or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of Subordinate Voting Shares or other securities, in cash, or otherwise, or (iv) publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing.

A-1

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may, without the prior written consent of the Representative:

(a) transfer Lock-Up Securities, (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts (including, but not limited to, charitable gifts), or for bona fide estate planning purposes; (ii) to any immediate family member(s) of the undersigned; (iii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or any immediate family member(s) of the undersigned; (iv) to any partnership, limited liability company or other entity of which the undersigned or any immediate family member(s) of the undersigned are the legal and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding equity securities or similar interests; (v) to any investment fund or other entity controlling, managing, or controlled or managed by, the undersigned or any affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the undersigned; (vi) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust, or other business entity, (A) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity that is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the undersigned (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where the undersigned is a partnership, to its general partner or a successor partnership or fund, or any other funds managed by such partnership), or (B) as part of a distribution to shareholders, limited partners, or limited liability company members of the undersigned, or holders of similar equity interests in the undersigned; (vii) if the undersigned is a trust, to a trustor, a beneficiary, or the estate of a beneficiary of such trust; (viii) by operation of law, including pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement, divorce decree or separation agreement; (ix) by will or intestate succession to the legal representative, heir, beneficiary, or immediate family of the undersigned upon the death of the undersigned; provided that, with respect to any such transfer pursuant clause (a)(i) through (a)(ix) above (1) prior to any such transfer, the Representative receives a signed lock-up agreement, substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement, for the balance of the Lock-Up Period from each donee, trustee, distributee or transferee, as the case may be, (2) any such transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to clause (a)(viii) above) does not involve a disposition for value, (3) any such transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to clause (a)(viii) or clause (a)(ix) above) is not required to be reported with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act (other than through a filing on a Form 5 made after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period), and (4) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any other public filing or report regarding any such transfer;

(b) transfer Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the closing of the Offering; provided that, (1) any such transfer is not required to be reported with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act (other than through a filing made on Form 5 after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, to the extent applicable), and (2) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any other public filing or report regarding any such transfer;

(c) exercise outstanding options or settle equity awards pursuant to incentive compensation or similar plans of the Company, or exercise warrants of the Company; provided that any Lock-Up Securities received upon such exercise, vesting, or settlement shall be subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement;

(d) transfer Lock-Up Securities to the Company in connection with the exercise, vesting, or settlement of options, warrants, or other rights to purchase or acquire Subordinate Voting Shares (including, in each case, by way of “net” or “cashless” exercise), including for the payment of any exercise price or tax, or any remittance payments due as a result of such exercise, vesting, or settlement of such options, warrants, or other rights; provided that any such Lock-Up Securities received upon such exercise, vesting, or settlement shall be subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement;

A-2

(e) transfer Lock-Up Securities pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction that is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and made to all shareholders of the Company, and involves a Change of Control of the Company (for purposes hereof, “Change of Control” shall mean the transfer (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to a person or group of affiliated persons, of shares of the capital stock of the Company if, after such transfer, such person or group of affiliated persons would hold at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (or the surviving entity)); provided, however, that, in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction is not completed, the Lock-Up Securities shall remain subject to the provisions of this lock-up agreement; and

(f) establish trading plans pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of Subordinate Voting Shares (including the Lock-Up Securities); provided that (1) such plans do not provide for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period, and (2) any filing under the Exchange Act or other public announcement that is required to be made during the Lock-Up Period by the undersigned or any other person regarding the establishment of such plan shall include a statement that the undersigned is not permitted to transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of securities under such plan during the Lock-Up Period in contravention of this lock-up agreement.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the undersigned also authorizes the Company and the transfer agent and registrar for the Subordinate Voting Shares to decline to make any transfer of the Lock-Up Securities if such transfer would not be in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

With respect to the Offering only, the undersigned waives any registration rights relating to registration under the Securities Act of the offer and sale of any Subordinate Voting Shares, any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares, or any options or warrants or other rights to acquire Subordinate Voting Shares or other securities or rights ultimately convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares, owned either of record or beneficially by the undersigned, including any rights to receive notice of the Offering.

In addition, if the undersigned is a director or officer of the Company, (i) the Representative agrees that, at least three business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Representative shall notify the Company of the impending release or waiver, and (ii) the Company (in accordance with the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement) will announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of such release or waiver. Any such release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such director or officer shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if both (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration, and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this lock-up agreement that are applicable to the transferor to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.

The undersigned confirms that the undersigned has not, and has no knowledge that any immediate family member has, directly or indirectly, taken any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale of the Subordinate Voting Shares. The undersigned will not take, and will cause any immediate family member not to take, directly or indirectly, any such action.

A-3

As used herein, “immediate family” shall mean the spouse, domestic partner, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother, sister, or any other person with whom the undersigned has a relationship by blood, marriage, or adoption not more remote than first cousin.

The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power, capacity, and authority to enter into this lock-up agreement. This lock-up agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned.

This lock-up agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any conflicts of laws or choice of law rule or provision that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. The Offering will only be made pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.

This lock-up agreement shall automatically terminate, and the undersigned shall be released from its obligations hereunder, upon the earliest to occur, if any, of (i) the Company advising the Representative in writing, prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, that it has determined not to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the executed Underwriting Agreement being terminated prior to the closing of the Offering (other than the provisions thereof that survive termination), and (iii) [●], 2025, in the event that the Underwriting Agreement has not been executed by such date.

This lock-up agreement may be delivered via electronic mail (including pdf), any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇), or any other transmission method, and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered, and be valid and effective in all respects for all purposes.
