Under the agreement, the underwriters have agreed to purchase 4.02 million common shares of the Company at a purchase price of C$37.40 per common share for total gross proceeds to the Selling Shareholders of approximately C$150 million.

The Selling Shareholders have granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time until and including 30 days following the closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Offering at the offering price to cover over-allotments, if any.

The Common Shares will be offered by way of a prospectus supplement to the short form base shelf prospectus of the Company dated July 22, 2022 in all of the provinces and territories of Canada and may also be offered by way of private placement in the United States.

The Offering is expected to close on or about November 17, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.
