Article content
The Ontario Securities Commission (the “OSC”) has notified the Company that its application for a Management Cease Trade Order (“MCTO”) has been rejected. In delivering its decision, the OSC noted that they are not of the view that there is an active, liquid market for the issuer’s securities, based on a review of the trade volume, trade value, and number of trades over the last month.

Consequently, the OSC intends to issue a Failure-to-File Cease Trade Order (“FFCTO”) against the Company shortly after the regulatory deadline if the continuous disclosure documents are not submitted. The Company’s audited annual financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis, and related officer certifications for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (collectively, the “Required Filings”) are due on June 1, 2026.

Reason for Anticipated Delay
Article content
The delay in completing VVC’s Required Filings is primarily attributable to the time required to complete the valuation and related accounting assessment of VVC’s equity investment in Cyber Apps Solutions Corp. (“CYRB”) and its operating subsidiary, Proton Green, LLC. The complexity of the valuation process and the resolution of related accounting matters delayed the commencement of VVC’s Required Filings.
Article content
The Company also wishes to clarify that the references to executive management vacancies at CYRB included in the May 16, 2026 announcement were incorrect and have been retracted.

Financing & Corporate Update
Article content
Article content
In light of the operational adjustments required by the developments at CYRB, the Company also announces that it is actively pursuing capital-raising initiatives to protect working capital and fund ongoing operations, including its core helium and gold exploration assets. VVC is currently evaluating various financing options, which may include a proposed non-brokered private placement of securities.
Article content
Any such financing remains subject to compliance with the strict terms of the proposed MCTO, which prohibits the issuance or acquisition of securities from any director, officer, or insider of VVC during the period of the default. Further details regarding the terms, pricing, and closing dates of any such financing will be announced if and when they are finalized. There can be no assurance that any financing will be completed on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

Anticipated Completion and Impact of Order
Article content
The Company and its independent third-party valuation specialist are working diligently to resolve the valuation framework with MNP LLP. VVC continues to target the completion and submission of the Required Filings on or before June 30, 2026.
