The common shares offered in the offering shall be offered to purchasers in British Columbia and Ontario pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106 (the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption).

The company has not engaged any dealers or finders in connection with the offering. While the company does not anticipate paying any finders' fees with respect to the offering, finders' fees may be payable to eligible arm's-length finders or dealers in the event a subscriber in the offering is introduced through an arm's-length finder who is eligible to receive a fee or commission in accordance with Canadian Securities Exchange policies and applicable securities laws.

As disclosed in the offering document, the company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to finance relaunching its Trace brand water products in Canada, expanding the distribution market of its Trace brand water products to Asia and launching its nutraceutical health product e-commerce platform through its wholly owned subsidiary Naturally Pure Therapy Products Corp. and for general working capital purposes.

Closing of the offering remains subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, completion of a minimum offering, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals, including the company's completion of its filing obligations under the policies of the CSE. The company expects to close the offering on or about May 10, 2024, or on any other such date as the company may determine.
