ANNUAL REPORT
(ss. 119, 119.1, 119.3, 119.4 and 119.6)
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
PART I
General Instructions

1. There is no requirement for management's discussion and analysis of financial
   condition and results of operations to accompany interim financial statements required under Section 76 of the Securities Act (R.S.Q, c. V-1.1). However issuers are encouraged to provide significant management's discussions and analysis of financial condition and results of operations disclosures with their interim financial statements.
2. The disclosure required shall include that the relating to each subsidiary or
   investee of an issuer whose total assets constitute more than 10 % of consolidated assets of the issuer at the most recent financial year end or whose total revenues constitute more than 10 % of consolidated revenues of the issuer for the most recent financial year.
3. Generally, information shall be presented as at the end of the last completed
   financial year. Where material events or conditions have arisen subsequent to the end of the last completed financial year but prior to the date of preparation of the annual report, this updated information shall be included in the annual report.
4. The instructions for the preparation of the annual report require issuers to discuss
   certain forward-looking information. Required disclosure is based on presently known trends, commitments, events and uncertainties that are reasonably expected to materially affect the issuer. A disclosure duty exists where a trend, commitment, event or uncertainty is both presently known to management and reasonably expected to have a material impact on the issuer's business, financial condition or results of operation. This Schedule requires a discussion of forward-looking information based on the issuers' expectations as of the date of the AIF. Issuers are encouraged, but not required, to supply other forward-looking information. Optional forward-looking disclosure involves anticipating a future trend or event or anticipating a less predictable impact of known event, trend or uncertainty. This other forward-looking information is to be distinguished from presently known information which is reasonably expected to have a material impact on future operating results, such as known future increases in costs of labour or materials, which information is to be disclosed. Although information provided under this Schedule may involve some prediction or projection of the future these instructions do not call for a forecast or projection as defined by the Handbook. In the event that an issuer chooses to provide a forecast or projection, the application of relevant regulatory provisions should be considered.

Securities Regulation June 22, 2026 65
5. The focus of the annual report disclosure shall be on the issuer. There is no
requirement to provide extensive discussion of factors external to the issuer.
6. The annual report also presents management's discussion and analysis of
financial condition and results of operations, required by regulation, for the simplified prospectus system.
