the property lease that was classified as an operating lease, the Corporation discounted the lease payments using its incremental borrowing
rate. The original property lease had an expiration date of May 31, 2024, and the lease payments were discounted with a 9% interest
rate. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the property lease was extended to October 30, 2028. The lease liability was
revalued as of the extension date with lease payments discounted with a 15% interest rate.

and re-valued at each reporting date, as the warrants were issued in a currency other than the Corporation's functional currency. During
