A final prospectus dated April 10, 2025 has been filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each province and territory in Canada.
The investment objectives of BAAA are to provide unitholders with high monthly income and capital preservation through investment in a portfolio of primarily AAA rated collateralized loan obligations ('CLOs'). BAAA seeks to hedge substantially all of its direct exposure to foreign currencies back to the Canadian dollar. However, any exposure that BAAA's assets allocable to the USD units have to foreign currencies will not be hedged back to the Canadian dollar. BAAA will seek to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a portfolio of CLOs selected by Wellington Square Advisors Inc., the investment sub-advisor to BAAA, generally ranging in credit quality from AAA to BBB, with a minimum of 75% of BAAA's portfolio invested in AAA rated CLOs. Up to 10% of BAAA's portfolio may from time to time be tactically invested in CLOs rated less than BBB. All ratings are measured as at the time of investment.

Pantheon will benefit from a combined 50 years of international experience between the two. I also want to thank Phil Patman for his efforts in delivering a strong financial platform for growth through this transition and an ultimate US listing." David Hobbs, Pantheon's Chairman, added: "I would like to add my welcome to Tralisa and Erich. In addition, I also want to express my personal gratitude to Bob Rosenthal, who has been a key member of the leadership of the Company. He was a founder of Pantheon some 20 years ago, then became a founder of Great Bear a few years later. Bob returned to Pantheon 7 years ago to help with the acquisition of Great Bear and then lead the technical team through the journey of discovering and appraising the Ahpun and Kodiak fields to demonstrate the potential for resources that are now independently certified at some 1.6 billion barrels of ANS Crude and 6.6 tcf of natural gas. His leadership has helped position the Company to be a significant part of Alaska's energy future." Further information on these appointments:As part of these appointments, and to align with other executives and the wider interests of shareholders, the new executives will receive the following: One-off grant of 375,000 Restricted Stock Units under the Employee Share Ownership Plan ("ESOP") announced in October 2024, vesting over three years 750,000 options with various time-based and operational vesting criteria Be eligible for ongoing standard senior executive grants under the ESOP The Company expects to grant these awards as soon as administratively and regulatorily practicable.

Independently certified best estimate contingent recoverable resources attributable to these projects currently total c. 1.6 billion barrels of ANS crude and 6.6 Tcf (trillion cubic feet) of associated natural gas. The Company owns 100% working interest in c. 259,000 acres. Pantheon's stated objective is to demonstrate sustainable market recognition of a value of $5-$10/bbl of recoverable resources by end 2028. This is based on bringing the Ahpun field forward to FID and producing into the TAPS main oil line (ANS crude) by the end of 2028. The Gas Sales Precedent Agreement signed with AGDC (Alaska Gasline Development Corporation) provides the potential for Pantheon's natural gas to be produced into the proposed 807-mile pipeline from the North Slope to Southcentral Alaska during 2029. Once the Company achieves financial self-sufficiency, it will apply the resultant cashflows to support the FID on the Kodiak field planned, subject to regulatory approvals, targeted by the end of 2028 or early 2029. A major differentiator to other ANS projects is the close proximity to existing roads and pipelines which offers a significant competitive advantage to Pantheon, allowing for shorter development timeframes, materially lower infrastructure costs and the ability to support the development with a significantly lower pre-cashflow funding requirement than is typical in Alaska. Furthermore, the low CO2 content of the associated gas allows export into the planned natural gas pipeline from the North Slope to Southcentral Alaska without significant pre-treatment. The Company's project portfolio has been endorsed by world-renowned experts. Netherland, Sewell & Associates estimate a 2C contingent recoverable resource in the Kodiak project that total 1,208 mmbbl (million barrels) of ANS crude and 5,396 bcf (billion cubic feet) of natural gas. Cawley Gillespie & Associates estimate 2C contingent recoverable resources for Ahpun's western topset horizons at 282 mmbbl of ANS crude and 803 bcf of natural gas. Lee Keeling & Associates estimated possible reserves and 2C contingent recoverable resources totalling 79 mmbbl of ANS crude and 424 bcf natural gas.

Carney lays out Canada's G7 summit priorities while managing a complicated guest list
With one week to go until G7 leaders gather in Alberta, Prime Minister Mark Carney has announced his priorities for the meeting and is managing a guest list that lays bare fault lines in some of Canada's international relationships. The G7 leaders summit will be held in Kananaskis from June 15 to 17. On Saturday, Carney said Canada will "seek agreements and co-ordinated action" on three core missions. The first is protecting Canadian communities and the world by strengthening peace and security, countering foreign interference as well as transnational crime and improving joint responses to wildfires. The second is "building energy security and accelerating the digital transition" through fortifying critical mineral supply chains and using artificial intelligence to boost economic growth. Finally, Carney said Canada will push to secure new partnerships that will catalyze "enormous private investment to build stronger infrastructure, create higher-paying jobs and open dynamic markets where businesses can compete and succeed." Those international goals tie closely to Carney's domestic agenda. WATCH | Carney and his Liberals table One Canadian Economy bill: Earlier this week, the Liberal government tabled the One Canadian Economy Act — a bill it says will eliminate federal barriers to internal trade and explain how nation-building infrastructure projects will be identified and approved faster. Many provinces are eager to take Carney up on nation-building plans, especially provinces ready to extract more critical minerals for their regions. B.C. Energy Minister Adrian Dix said one project on his mind is the North Coast Transmission Line, which would expand the province's electricity system and could unlock more critical mineral extraction in B.C.'s northwest. "It's a project that exists. We're working with First Nations on [it] right now. That's a significant project," Dix said in an interview on Rosemary Barton Live. Ontario Premier Doug Ford is pushing to use powers in his government's recently passed Bill 5 to designate the mineral-rich Ring of Fire as a special economic zone, where cabinet can exempt companies and projects from having to comply with any provincial law, provincial regulation or municipal bylaw. Ford put the Ring of Fire at the top of his list presented to Prime Minister Mark Carney for consideration as a potential nation-building project. Carney came under fire earlier this week when it was announced he'd invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the G7 summit just months after the RCMP accused his government of acts of murder, extortion and coercion. The prime minister defended the move and said on Friday that India and Canada "have now agreed importantly to continued law enforcement dialogue. So there's been some progress on that." Last fall, the RCMP laid out allegations accusing agents of the Indian government of playing a role in "widespread violence" in Canada, including homicides, and warned that it poses "a serious threat to our public safety." That came after Canada accused Indian government agents of being involved in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian activist for Sikh separatism. WATCH | B.C. Liberal says constituents 'concerned' over Modi's G7 invitation: The Sikh Federation of Canada called the invitation "a grave insult" and Liberal MP Sukh Dhaliwal, who represents the Surrey riding where Nijjar was shot, said neither he nor many of his constituents support Modi. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has also been invited to the G7 summit, but it's not confirmed whether she will attend — a hesitation that underscores some diplomatic tensions after some premiers suggested Canada ditch Mexico and pursue a new bilateral trade agreement with the United States. Arturo Sarukhán, former ambassador of Mexico to the United States, said Sheinbaum should attend because it would allow her to "reset relationships with Canada" and leave aside "the pissing match that Canadians and Mexicans have been in since the fall." Sarukhán also said on Rosemary Barton Live that Mexico's attendance "would allow Carney and Sheinbaum to have a first sit-down with Donald Trump on neutral ground" to discuss a looming renegotiation of the North American free trade deal. When asked whether the North American free trade deal will hold up, Sarukhán said "probably the outcome of the process is that we will end up with two separate free trade agreements. One between the U.S. and Canada [and] one between Mexico and the United States." "That's not a good outcome for future North American competitiveness if the U.S. wants to be successful in its recalibration of its relationship with Beijing," Sarukhán said. "It needs Canada and Mexico for that recalibration to be successful."
