During May 2021, the Company experienced a thermal event on the electric boat prototype rendering it unusable for further testing. Additionally, the Company experienced a building fire in one of the outer storage buildings resulting in the need for demolition. This had no impact on production as this was an extra storage building not necessary for business operations. The Company recorded a loss on disposal of asset from fire of $249,499 and gain from insurance recovery of $434,724, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
