On October 2, 2026, the Company completed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement by issuing 1,218,666 units ("Units") at C$0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of C$182,799.90.

Each Unit consists of one common share (a "Share") and one full, non-transferable common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant").

The securities issued are subject to a Canadian statutory hold period of four months and one day from closing.

This closing forms part of the offering announced on September 21, 2026, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$1.5 million (the "Offering"). The Offering remains open and may close in additional tranches, subject to applicable requirements.

Sentry remains in active development and is not yet generally available.

In connection with the first tranche of the Offering, the Company issued 21,140 finder's warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") and paid commissions of $3,171.00 to certain finders.
