FLYHT is aware that, as a result of the national strike commenced by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers on November 15, 2024 (the "Strike"), Canada Post's operations have shut down. In order to facilitate the delivery of the Circular and related materials for the Meeting to non-registered Company Shareholders in the event that the Strike, lockout or similar or related events prevent, delay or otherwise interrupt delivery of Circular and related materials for the Meeting to non-registered Company Shareholders in Canada in the ordinary course by the applicable intermediaries, FLYHT will deliver, by email, a copy of the Circular and related materials for the Meeting to each registered or non-registered Company Shareholder who requests (please direct any requests for copies of the Circular and related materials for the Meeting to: investors@flyht.com).
