Pursuant to the Release Conditions, the common shares of the Company, including the Underlying Shares, are conditionally approved for listing on the NEO Exchange ("NEO") under the symbol HCEV. Listing is subject to the Company fulfilling all of NEO's listing requirements, including the minimum distribution requirements. NEO is a senior Canadian stock exchange based in Toronto.
