Comment for Type of Reporting Person: As more fully described in Item 4 of this statement on Schedule 13G (this ''Schedule 13G''), such shares and percentage are based on (i) 3,232,137 shares of common shares, no par value per share, of the issuer (the ''Common Shares'') outstanding after giving effect to the issuer's offering (the ''Offering'') disclosed in the the prospectus, dated August 15, 2025, to the issuer's Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-289547), declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the ''SEC'') on August 15, 2025 (the ''Prospectus''), which number assumes no exercise of any pre-funded warrants issued in connection with the Offering except as disclosed herein, and (ii) the subsequent exercise by the reporting person of an aggregate of 475,000 pre-funded warrants issued in connection with the Offering (the "Pre-Funded Warrants"). Beneficial ownership consists of 40,000 common share purchase warrants (the ''Warrants'') directly held by the reporting person. All issuer securities that were deemed beneficially owned by the reporting person as a consequence of the closing of the Offering have since been disposed. As a result, this also constitutes an exit filing for the reporting person.

| Item 4. | Ownership | |
| (a) | Amount beneficially owned:
The information required by this item with respect to each Reporting Person is set forth in Rows 5 through 9 and 11 of the cover pages to this Schedule 13G and is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person. Upon the consummation of the Offering, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owned approximately 8.5% of the outstanding Common Shares due to 3i's participation in the Offering. Subsequent to the Offering and as of the date of this Schedule 13G, all issuer securities deemed beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as a consequence of the Offering were disposed. As a result of such dispositions, this also constitutes an exit filing for each of the Reporting Persons.
The share amounts and ownership percentages disclosed on such cover pages are based on (i) 3,232,137 Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Offering disclosed in the Prospectus, which number assumes no exercise of any pre-funded warrants issued in connection with the Offering except as disclosed herein, and (ii) the subsequent exercise by 3i of an aggregate of 475,000 Pre-Funded Warrants. As of the date of this Schedule 13G, 3i holds Warrants exercisable for up to 40,000 Common Shares.
Consequently, 3i is the beneficial owner of 40,000 Common Shares (the "Shares") and has the power to dispose of and the power to vote such Shares, which power may be exercised by 3i Management, the manager and general partner of 3i. Mr. Tarlow, as the manager of 3i Management, has shared power to vote and/or dispose of the Shares beneficially owned by each of 3i and 3i Management. Mr. Tarlow does not directly own the Shares. By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the Act, Mr. Tarlow may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares beneficially owned by 3i and 3i Management, and 3i Management may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares beneficially owned by 3i. | |
