Each Unit will consist of one common share (a "Share") and one-half of a share purchase warrant, with each full warrant exercisable to acquire one Share at a price of $0.08 for a period of eighteen months from closing (the "Closing date"). If, after the date that is four months and one day after the Closing date, the Shares trade or close on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), or such other exchange or market on which the Shares may become traded, at $0.15 or more for ten consecutive trading days, the Company may accelerate the expiry of the warrants by giving notice via news release and thereafter the warrants will automatically expire at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the 30th day after such news release.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Private Placement for general working capital, to support the development of its Agassiz Campground expansion and to advance acquisition opportunities within its pipeline, consisting of RV resorts and RV & self-storage opportunities.

Pathfinder has been in discussion with its debenture holders and is proposing to extend (the "CD Extension") the maturity date and conversion term and defer the payment of all accrued interest until maturity, of up to $2,395,000 in principal amount of its Series 2021-07.CD10-A and CD10-B convertible debentures, from July 26, 2023 and September 8, 2023, respectively, to December 1, 2023. All other terms of the convertible debentures will remain the same.

The Private Placement, CD Extension and SFD Settlement are subject to the approval of the Exchange.
