Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian Dollars - unless otherwise noted
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Oceanic Iron Ore Corp. ("Oceanic" or the "Company") is an exploration-stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of iron ore properties in Québec, Canada. The Company was incorporated on March 8, 1986, under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. The Company maintains its head office at 595 Burrard Street, Suite 3083, Vancouver, British Columbia. The Company's registered/records office is located at 1500 - 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. Its common shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "FEO".
The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain mining claims (the "Property") located near Ungava Bay, Québec, Canada, in November 2010. The Company is currently conducting exploration activities on the Property. The Property comprises three project areas: Hopes Advance (also referred to as the "Hopes Advance Project" throughout), Morgan Lake and Roberts Lake, which cover over 36,039 hectares and 862 claim cells with iron ore formations and are located within 20 to 50 km from tidewater. The Company operates as a single reportable segment, being the exploration of the Property. All of the Company's non-current assets are located in Canada.
While these condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("Interim Financial Statements") have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due, certain conditions and events could result in a material uncertainty casting significant doubt on the validity of this assumption. As at September 30, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $33,521,117 and a working capital deficit of $1,436,646.
The Company's ability to continue on a going concern basis for and beyond the next twelve months depends on its ability to successfully raise additional financing for continued operations and for the necessary capital expenditures required to achieve planned principal operations. The Company continues to pursue a number of options to improve its financial capacity, including securing a strategic partner to further advance the Hopes Advance project. While the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
These Interim Financial Statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption deemed to be inappropriate, and these adjustments could be material.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Statements, including International Auditing Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and interpretations by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee. These Interim Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required for annual audited financial statements. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements (the "Annual Financial Statements") for the year ended December 31, 2022. The accounting policies followed in these Interim Financial Statements are the same as those applied in Note 3 of the Company's annual consolidated financial statements, except as described below.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
A number of amendments to standards were effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, including amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, IFRS Practice Statement 2 and IAS 12, Income Taxes. There were no material impacts on the Company's Interim Financial Statements from the adoption of these amendments.
These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair value. In addition, these Interim Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. These Interim Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency.
These Interim Financial Statements were approved by the board of directors on November 23, 2023.

Under the terms of the acquisition of the Property, the Company must pay advance net smelter royalty ("NSR") payments of $200,000 per year until the commencement of commercial production. The aggregate advance NSR payments will then be credited against all future NSR payments payable from production. The advance NSR payments included in the Company's liabilities represent the

present value of advance payments to the royalty holders until the estimated date of commencement of commercial production.
A 1% NSR is payable to 154619 Canada Inc. ("154619") and a 1% NSR is payable to SPG Royalties Inc. ("SPG"). The Company discounted the advance NSR payments using a discount rate of 20%, representing the estimated rate of return of similar investments. The advance royalty liability will be accreted up to the date of ultimate NSR advance payment, resulting in an increase to mineral property acquisition costs and the advance royalty payable.
The total estimated future undiscounted NSR payments as at September 30, 2023 total $1,000,000 (December 31, 2022: $1,000,000). - CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

The convertible debentures are secured with a first ranking charge at any time against the assets of the Company, ranking pari-passu with the current secured debenture holders.
The Series A Debentures were convertible into units at a conversion price of $0.07 per unit during the first year of their term, following which (on September 26, 2023) the conversion price increased to $0.10 per unit. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.07 per common share. The Series A Debentures bear interest at 8.5% per annum over a five-year term and mature on September 26, 2027.
The Series B Debenture is convertible into units at a conversion price of $0.10 per unit. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.05 per common share. The Series B Debenture bears interest at 8.5% per annum over a five-year term and matures on November 29, 2023.

4. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (continued)
The Series C Debentures are convertible into units at a conversion price of $0.19 per unit. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.19 per common share. The Series C Debentures bear interest at 8.5% per annum over a five-year term and mature on March 10, 2026.
The Series D Debentures were convertible into units at a conversion price of $0.07 per unit during the first year of their term, following which the conversion price would increase to $0.10 per unit. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.07 per common share. The Series D Debentures bear interest at 8.5% per annum over a five-year term and mature on September 26, 2027.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there was a partial conversion of the Series D Debentures, whereby one of the holders converted $15,000 of convertible debentures into units comprising 214,285 common shares and 214,285 warrants.
As of September 26, 2023, the conversion price of the remaining Series D Debentures increased to $0.10 per unit.
In accordance with IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments ("IFRS 9"), it has been determined that the respective convertible debentures are, for IFRS purposes, hybrid debt instruments which contain non- cash embedded derivative liabilities associated with the conversion features of the debentures into Units. IFRS 9 further determines that the debenture is to be measured at amortized cost and the non- cash embedded derivative is to be measured at fair value.
The Company uses a binomial option pricing model to fair value the derivative liability components contained in the Series A Debentures, Series B Debenture, Series C Debentures and Series D Debentures.
The inputs in the option pricing model as at September 30, 2023 are as follows:
