The initial tranche of the Investment comprised the issuance of 20,000,000 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of C$8,400,000. The proposed second tranche of the Investment will be comprised of the issuance of 11,925,595 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of C$5,008,749.90. All securities issued under the Investment will be subject to Canadian resale restrictions of four months and one day, in addition to applicable US resale restrictions.

The Units issued pursuant to the Investment have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States in the absence of U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements.
The initial and proposed subsequent equity Investment will enable Xtract One to further innovate its advanced security solution and accelerate its growth into new market segments.

Xtract One will hold a special meeting of shareholders to obtain disinterested shareholder approval of the second tranche of the Investment, currently scheduled for April 11, 2023.
The investment by MSG Sports took place through its wholly-owned subsidiary MSG Sports Ventures, LLC (“MSGSV”), which is located at 2 Penn Plaza, New York, New York 10121.
Prior to its investment, MSGSV did not hold any securities of Xtract One. As a result of its investment for total gross proceeds of C$8.4 million, MSGSV holds 20,000,000 Common Shares and 20,000,000 Warrants, representing approximately 10.92% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis and 19.69% on a partially diluted basis. Should its investment increase to C$13.4 million, MSGSV would hold an aggregate of 31,925,595 Common Shares and 31,925,595 Warrants, representing approximately 16.36% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis, and 28.12% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a partially diluted basis, based on the current issued and outstanding Common Shares.
In connection with its investment, MSGSV entered into an investor rights agreement with Xtract One (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) pursuant to the terms of which MSGSV has been granted the right to appoint an observer to the board of directors of Xtract One. Under the Investor Rights Agreement, subject to certain limitations set forth therein, MSGSV is also entitled to: (a) certain “demand” registration rights that will allow MSGSV to request that Xtract One (i) qualify for resale under Canadian securities laws and/or (ii) register for resale under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, any Common Shares acquired by MSGSV as a result of its investment or upon exercise of the Warrants (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”); and (b) certain “piggyback” registration rights that will allow MSGSV to include the Registrable Securities in any public offering of equity securities initiated by Xtract One or another shareholder having registration rights
