Arizona Tribune - Xebra Brands Announces Update on Share Consolidation

Further to the Company's press release dated August 22, 2025, the British Columbia Securities Commission (the "BCSC") issued a failure to file cease trade order ("CTO") on September 3, 2025 for the Company's failure to file its annual financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related officer certifications for the financial year ended February 28, 2025 and its unaudited interim financial statements, related management's discussion and analysis and officer certifications for the three months ended May 31, 2025 (the "Interim Filings", and together with the Annual Filings, the "Required Documents"). Notwithstanding that the Consolidation will become effective on September 19, 2025, the Company's common shares will remain cease trade until such time that it files the Required Documents and the CTO is revoked by the BCSC.

Xebra will not be changing its name or trading symbol in connection with the Consolidation. As a result of the Consolidation, the outstanding common shares of Xebra will be reduced to approximately 8,065,442. No fractional common shares will be issued upon the Consolidation. In the event a holder of common shares would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional common share in connection with the Consolidation, the number of common shares to be received by such shareholder will be rounded down to the next whole number if that fractional common share is less than one half (1/2) of a common share, and will be rounded up to the next whole number of common shares if that fractional common share is equal to or greater than one half (1/2) of a common share. The new CUSIP number will be 98402E305 and the new ISIN number will be CA98402E3059.

A letter of transmittal will be sent to registered shareholders advising that the Consolidation has taken effect. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how registered shareholders can exchange their share certificates evidencing their pre‐Consolidation common shares for new share certificates representing the number of post-Consolidation common shares to which they are entitled. No action is required by non‐registered shareholders (shareholders who hold their shares through an intermediary) to affect the Consolidation. The exercise or conversion price of, and the number of common shares issuable under, any convertible securities of Xebra will be proportionately adjusted upon the completion of the Consolidation.

The Consolidation is subject to the receipt of all required regulatory approval, including acceptance of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE").

New CUSIP: 98402E305
New ISIN: CA98402E3059
Effective Date of Consolidation: September 19, 2025.
Record Date: September 22, 2025.

On behalf of the Board

Interim CEO

The foregoing list is not exhaustive and XEBRA undertakes no obligation to update or revise any of the foregoing except as required by law.
