Additional & Corrective Disclosures to the Circular
1. Share Consolidation Resolution and Share Split Resolution Clarifying Disclosure
a. Correction and Clarification: The Company is seeking shareholder approval on the ‘Share Consolidation Resolution’ and ‘Share Split Resolution’ (collectively, the “Resolutions”), but only one of these Resolutions may be adopted, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and if determined to be in the best interest of Shareholders, as these Resolutions are alternatives and will NOT both be implemented. A Corporate action taken on both of these Resolutions would be counterintuitive and the Company does not believe that would be in the best interest of its shareholders.
b. Business Purpose: Background, Reasoning and Risks of the Resolutions:
i. Background to and Reasons for the Share Consolidation – The Board believes that the Share Consolidation could heighten the interest of the financial community in the Company and potentially broaden the pool of investors that may consider investing or be able to invest in the Company by increasing the trading price of the Common Shares and decreasing the number of outstanding Common Shares. It could also help to attract institutional investors who have internal policies that either prohibit them from investing in public companies whose share price is below a certain minimum price or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending such stock to their customers.
Risk Associated with the Share Consolidation – Reducing the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares through the Share Consolidation is intended to increase the per share market price of the Common Shares; however, the market price of the Common Shares will also be based on other factors, which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. As a result, there can be no assurance that the market price of the Common Shares will in fact increase following the Share Consolidation or will not decrease in the future. In addition, in the future, the market price of the Common Shares following the Share Consolidation may not exceed or remain higher than the market price prior to the Share Consolidation and thus the total market capitalization of the Common Shares after the Share Consolidation may be lower than the total market capitalization before the Share Consolidation.
While the Company believes that a higher share price could help to attract institutional investors who have internal policies that either prohibit them from purchasing stock below a certain minimum price or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending such stock to their customers, the Share Consolidation may not result in a share price that will attract institutional investors or that satisfy the investing guidelines of institutional investors.
If the Share Consolidation is affected and the market price of the Common Shares declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company’s overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Share Consolidation. In many cases, both the total market capitalization of a company and the market price of such company’s common shares following a share consolidation are lower than they were before the share consolidation. Furthermore, the reduced number of Common Shares that would be outstanding after the Share Consolidation could adversely affect the liquidity of the Common Shares. The Share Consolidation will, in all likelihood, also result in some shareholders owning "odd lots" of fewer than 100 Common Shares on a post-consolidation basis. Odd lots may be more difficult to sell, or require greater transaction costs per share to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in "round lots" of even multiples of 100 Common Shares.
ii. Background to and Reasons for the Stock Split – The Board of Directors is seeking approvals for the Stock Split because, while the Board of Directors can see circumstances whereby a Share Consolidation would benefit shareholders and increase liquidity, it can also see circumstances and certain market conditions whereby a Stock Split could potentially broaden the pool of investors that may consider investing with a relatively low share price (in the future), or be able to invest in the Company by decreasing the trading price of the Common Shares and potentially improving liquidity.
Certain Risks Associated with the Stock Split – The Company’s total market capitalization immediately after the Stock Split may be lower than immediately before the Stock Split. There are numerous factors and contingencies that could affect the Company’s Share price following the Stock Split, including the status of the market for the Shares at the time, the Company’s progress on strategic objectives, and general economic, stock market and industry conditions. A decline in the market price of the Common Shares after the Stock Split may result in a greater percentage decline than would occur in the absence of a split, and the liquidity of the Common Shares could be adversely affected following the Stock Split. If the Stock Split is implemented and the market price of the Common Shares declines, the percentage decline may be greater than would occur in the absence of a split. The market price of the Shares will, however, also be based on the Company’s performance and other factors, which are unrelated to the number of Shares outstanding. Furthermore, the liquidity of the Shares could be adversely affected by the increased number of Shares that would be outstanding following a split.
c. Resolutions: Best Interest of Shareholders and How the Board May Proceed:
i. In determining whether to implement the Share Consolidation or the Stock Split, if any, following the receipt of shareholder approvals, the Board may consider, among other things, factors such as:
-
the historical trading prices and trading volume of the Common Shares;
-
the greatest overall reduction in the Company’s administrative costs; and
In the event that both the Share Consolidation Resolution and the Share Spit Resolution are both approved by the Shareholders of the Company, the Board of Directors will consider the items disclosed above and decide on whether a Share Consolidation OR Stock Split (if any) will benefit the Company AND would be in the best interest of Shareholders.
For greater certainty, depending on the state of the Company and certain market conditions only the Share Consolidation OR the Share Split would be implemented by the Board of Directors and only if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Shareholders at that time.
2. MI 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions Disclosures
a. Additional Disclosures Below: Subsection 5.3(3) of MI 61-101 requires that an information circular sent to shareholders in connection with the meeting at which minority approval of a related party transaction is sought, which is the case for the Asset Purchase and the Circular, must include the disclosure required by Form 62-104F2 – Issuer Bid Circulars (“Form 62-104F2”) of National Instrument 62-104 – Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids, to the extent applicable and with the necessary modifications.

3. Board Review, Approval and Reasoning Process, Fairness, Alternatives and Benefits and Risks of the Acquisition
a. Additional Disclosures Below: Subsection 5.3(b) of MI 61-101 requires the following thorough disclosures in the context of a material conflict of interest transaction, such as the Acquisition:
The Company acquired an initial 50% interest in the Assets in March 2024 and since that time have reviewed the Assets and their performance. In the Spring of 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company began to evaluate a potential acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in the Assets from BSR. The Directors held meetings, discussed internally, with advisors and with BSR and determined that it would be in the best interest of Shareholders to acquire the Assets. The Company obtained unanimous approval from its Board to purchase the Asset Purchase and entered into of a letter of intent with BSR in May 2025 for BSR’s remaining interest in the BC Assets and certain other Alberta oil and gas assets for a proposed purchase price of $19 million (See the Company Press Release dated May 9, 2025). In June 2025, the Company received Board approval and entered into an amended letter of intent with BSR whereby additional oil and gas assets in Alberta were to be included in the acquisition and the purchase price was increased to $23 million (See the Company Press Release dated June 18, 2025). On July 2, 2025 the Company and BSR announced the entering into the PSA with the removal of minor oil and gas assets in Alberta (see the Company Press Release dated July 2, 2025) and revised the purchase price to $21 million. Later in July 2025 the Board of Directors, after further discussions with management and BSR, entered into a amended PSA whereby the Board of Directors of the Company determined that that most strategic acquisition, that would be in the best interest of its Shareholders, would be the acquisition of the Assets (See the Circular and above for a summary of the Assets) for a purchase price of $13 million, which was agreed to by BSR to be paid by way of a promissory note, with reasonable terms.
Reasoning and Analysis of the Board
The Company’s Board of Directors believes that the Asset Purchase should result in significant strategic benefits to the Company and its Shareholders. These strategic benefits include the following:
Alternatives to the Asset Purchase
The alternative to not pursuing the Asset Purchase was to continue to evaluate other oil and gas acquisition opportunities, with parties that the Company was less familiar with, or to continue with the status quo of the Company, which the Board of Directors of the Company determined was not in the best interest of Shareholders.
Benefits and Risk of the Asset Purchase
Strategic benefits of the Assets Purchase are disclosed above and, in the section of this Press Release titled “Purpose of the Asset Purchase”. Additional risks associated with the Asset Purchase are that future production estimates and/or operations of the Assets do not align with the expectations of the Board of Directors. Also see “Risk Factors” on page 15-21 of the Circular regarding risks associated with the Asset Purchase.
Fairness of the Asset Purchase
The purchase price of $13 million for the Asset Purchase was based off an independent reserve report prepared by Sproule ERCE for BSG as at December 31, 2025 and is attached in the Circular as Schedule “H”. The Board of Directors believe that the Asset Purchase and the consideration being provided is fair and reasonable and after consultation with management of the Company, and after having taken into consideration such matters as it considered relevant, including but not limited to, the current state of the oil and gas market in Western Canada, the consideration to be paid for the Assets which is based of an independent reserves report, and the familiarity of the operations and current state of the Assets. the Company Board unanimously determined that the Asset Purchase in the best interests of the Company and is fair to its Shareholders, and recommends that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Asset Purchase Resolution (as defined in the Circular).
4. Other Circular Corrections: Control Person Reference and Quorum Disclosure
