The Definitive Agreement replaces the Company’s previously announced non-binding memorandum of understanding with Connective Global.

Argo’s Definitive Agreement with Connective Global strategically positions the Company in Southeast Asia, creating a formidable opportunity for growth and expansion. In line with this initiative, the Company is pleased to announce two key appointments that bring significant experience and expertise specific to the biochar market and the region.

Appointees

Mr. Lee (Daniel) Kok Onn has joined Argo’s Board of Directors. With an MBA from University Kebangsaan Malaysia, Mr. Lee has served as a technical and market development advisor for multinational corporations such as Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, and Boehringer Ingelheim. He is currently the Marketing Director at Ameoba Venture and the International Business Manager for Hovid Berhad, adding valuable insights for these organizations into the Southeast Asian market.

The collaboration between Argo and Connective Global has uncovered significant potential for biochar-based products in key markets such as Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Biochar’s capacity to rejuvenate and enrich heavily cultivated agricultural soils could substantially enhance food production in these areas.

Definitive Agreement

As a condition of the Definitive Agreement, Connective Global has secured the research facilities of University Putra Malaysia for Argo and Connective Global to conduct their joint research. The parties agreed that the research and development phase is anticipated to last until September, 2025.

Under the Definitive Agreement, Argo has agreed to fund a C$100,000 budget for research and development and issue up to 500,000 common shares to Connective Global. As of the date of this news release, Argo has paid a total of C$45,000 and issued 125,000 common shares (on a post-consolidation basis). The remaining payments and share issuances are scheduled to occur in four installments over the next year, with the final payment due on August 15, 2025. These installments include both cash payments and share issuances, totaling the remainder of the agreed-upon amount. All securities issued will be subject to a statutory four-month hold from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Additionally, Connective Global has granted Argo an irrevocable and exclusive right and option to, at any time while the Definitive Agreement remains in effect, purchase and acquire all of the property, assets and/or shares of Connective Global in consideration for Argo issuing 2,000,000 common shares. The ultimate transaction structure of such acquisition, if such an option is exercised by Argo, will be determined by Argo based on tax, securities law, corporate law, and other considerations.

If the 12-month research and development phase is successful, Argo and Connective Global agree to make reasonable commercial efforts to negotiate and enter into a commercial production agreement. However, there is no guarantee that a definitive commercial production agreement will proceed as outlined above or be completed at all.

Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, Argo and Connective Global have agreed to jointly pursue the research and development of biochar for agricultural and industrial applications in Malaysia and across certain regions in Asia.
