  • Up to 10,800,000 units of Q2 at a price of $0.4625 per unit (the "Charity Units") for gross proceeds of up to $4,995,000. Each Charity Unit will consist of one flow-through common share of Q2 (a "FT Share") and one half of one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant").

Gross proceeds from the issuance of the Charity Units and FT Units will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures", as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act"), on Q2's lithium projects in Quebec that the Company will renounce to the subscribers pursuant to the Tax Act with an effective date not later than December 31, 2024. Where applicable, gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares from purchasers in Québec will also qualify as "Canadian exploration expense" under the Taxation Act (Québec) and qualify for inclusion in the "exploration base relating to certain Québec exploration expenses" and the "exploration base relating to certain Québec surface mining exploration expenses", under the Taxation Act (Québec). Proceeds from the sale of the NFT Units will be used for general working capital.

The Company may pay finders' fees in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.
