INFORMATION CIRCULAR

(As at July 25, 2025 except as indicated)

BELMONT RESOURCES INC. (the "Company") is providing this information circular (the "Information Circular") and a form of proxy in connection with management's solicitation of proxies for use at the annual and special general meeting (the "Meeting") of the Company to be held on September 3, 2025 and at any adjournments thereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, when we refer in this Information Circular to the Company, its subsidiaries are also included. The Company will conduct its solicitation by mail and officers and employees of the Company may, without receiving special compensation, also telephone or make other personal contact. The Company will pay the cost of solicitation.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXYHOLDER

The purpose of a proxy is to designate persons who will vote the proxy on a shareholder's behalf in accordance with the instructions given by the shareholder in the proxy. The persons whose names are printed in the enclosed form of proxy are officers or Directors of the Company (the "Management Proxyholders").

A shareholder has the right to appoint a person other than a Management Proxyholder, to represent the shareholder at the Meeting by striking out the names of the Management Proxyholders and by inserting the desired person's name in the blank space provided or by executing a proxy in a form similar to the enclosed form. A proxyholder need not be a shareholder.

VOTING BY PROXY

Only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Shares represented by a properly executed proxy will be voted or be withheld from voting on each matter referred to in the Notice of Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder on any ballot that may be called for and if the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted accordingly.

If a shareholder does not specify a choice and the shareholder has appointed one of the Management Proxyholders as proxyholder, the Management Proxyholder will vote in favour of the matters specified in the Notice of Meeting and in favour of all other matters proposed by management at the Meeting.

The enclosed form of proxy also gives discretionary authority to the person named therein as proxyholder with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of the Meeting and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. At the date of this Information Circular, management of the Company knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting.

COMPLETION AND RETURN OF PROXY

Completed forms of proxy must be deposited at the office of the Company's registrar and transfer agent, Olympia Trust Company, Suite 1900, 925 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3L2, by fax to 403-668-8307, by email to [email protected] OR by via internet at https://css.olympiatrust.com/pxlogin and enter the 12-digit control number shown on reverse not later than forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the time of the Meeting, unless the chairman of the Meeting elects to exercise his discretion to accept proxies received subsequently.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR NON-REGISTERED HOLDERS

Only shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of shares or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most shareholders of the Company are "non-registered" shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but instead registered in the name of a nominee such as a brokerage firm through which they purchased the shares; bank, trust company, trustee or administrator of self-administered RRSP's, RRIF's, RESP's and similar plans; or clearing agency such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (a "Nominee"). If you purchased your shares through a broker, you are likely a non-registered holder.

In accordance with securities regulatory policy, the Company has distributed copies of the Meeting materials, being the Notice of Meeting, this Information Circular and the Proxy, to the Nominees for distribution to non-registered holders.

Nominees are required to forward the Meeting materials to non-registered holders to seek their voting instructions in advance of the Meeting. Shares held by Nominees can only be voted in accordance with the instructions of the non-registered holder. The Nominees often have their own form of proxy, mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions. If you wish to vote by proxy, you should carefully follow the instructions from the Nominee in order that your Shares are voted at the Meeting.

If you, as a non-registered holder, wish to vote at the Meeting in person, you should appoint yourself as proxyholder by writing your name in the space provided on the request for voting instructions or proxy provided by the Nominee and return the form to the Nominee in the envelope provided. Do not complete the voting section of the form as your vote will be taken at the Meeting.

Non-registered holders who have not objected to their Nominee disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as "non-objecting beneficial owners ("NOBOs"). Those non-registered holders who have objected to their Nominee disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as "objecting beneficial owners" ("OBOs").

The Company is not sending the Meeting materials directly to NOBOs in connection with the Meeting, but rather has distributed copies of the Meeting materials to the Nominees for distribution to NOBOs.

The Company does not intend to pay for Nominees to deliver the Meeting materials and Form 54-101F7 – Request for Voting Instructions Made by Intermediary to OBOs. As a result, OBOs will not receive the Meeting Materials unless their Nominee assumes the costs of delivery.

NOTICE AND ACCESS

The Company has elected to use the "notice and access" provisions under National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (the "Notice and Access Provisions") for the Meeting. The Notice and Access Provisions are a set of rules developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators intended to reduce the volume of materials which are mailed to shareholders by allowing a reporting issuer to post proxy-related materials in respect of a meeting of its shareholders online.

The Company will not use procedures known as "stratification" in relation to the use of the Notice and Access Provisions, meaning that both registered shareholders and Beneficial Shareholders will be mailed notification of availability of Meeting materials directing them to those websites where they can access the Information Circular and other relevant information (the "Notice and Access Notification"). If you receive the Notice and Access Notification and would like to receive a paper copy of the Information Circular and the financial statements (the "Financial Statements") please follow the instructions printed on the Notice and Access Notification and the materials will be mailed to you at the Company's expense.

The Company anticipates the notice and access will directly benefit the Company through substantial reductions in postage and printing costs. The Company believes that notice-and-access is more environmentally responsible to the extent that it reduces the large volume of paper documents generated by printing proxy-related materials.

Shareholders with questions about notice and access can call Olympia Trust Company toll-free at 1-866-668-8379.


The Meeting materials have been posted on the Company's website at https://belmontresources.com/agm-2025/ and on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR+") under the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca. In order to receive a paper copy of the Information Circular and Financial Statements, requests by shareholders may be made up to one year from the date the Information Circular is posted on the Company's website by email to Olympia Trust Company at [email protected] or by calling toll-free at 1-866-668-8379.

To ensure that a paper copy of the Information Circular can be delivered to a requesting shareholder in time for such shareholder to receive and review the Information Circular and return the completed instrument of proxy or voting instruction form prior to the deadline of at least 48 hours before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponements(s) thereof, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays as set out under the heading "Return of Proxy" in this Information Circular, it is strongly suggested that a shareholder's request is received no later than August 19, 2025. The Information Circular will be sent to such shareholders within three business days of their request if such requests are made before the Meeting. Following the Meeting, the Information Circular will be sent to such shareholders within ten days of their request.

Those registered shareholders and Beneficial Shareholders with existing instructions on their account to receive printed materials will receive a printed copy of the Meeting materials.

Beneficial shareholders who are OBOs will not receive the Notice and Access Notification or the proxy materials unless their intermediary assumes the costs of delivery.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY

Any registered shareholder who has returned a proxy may revoke it at any time before it has been exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a registered shareholder, his attorney authorized in writing or, if the registered shareholder is a corporation, a corporation under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, may revoke a proxy by instrument in writing, including a proxy bearing a later date. The instrument revoking the proxy must be deposited at the registered office of the Company, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or with the chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting. Only registered shareholders have the right to revoke a proxy. Non registered holders who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their Nominees to revoke the proxy on their behalf.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares without par value of which 132,483,272 shares were issued and outstanding as at July 25, 2025. Persons who are registered shareholders at the close of business on July 25, 2025 will be entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Meeting and will be entitled to one vote for each share held. The Company has no other classes of voting securities.

Only registered Shareholders as of the record date are entitled to receive notice of, and to attend and vote at, the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting.

ADVANCE NOTICE BYLAW

At the Company’s annual general and special meeting held on August 27, 2013, the Shareholders approved an Advance Notice Bylaw (the “Policy”) and further authorized the alteration to the Company’s Articles to include advance notice provisions with respect to the timing and format of director nominations. The full text of the Policy was attached to the Company’s information circular dated July 23, 2013 and filed on SEDAR on May 27, 2013 at www.sedarplus.ca under the Company’s profile. The following information is intended as a brief summary of the Policy and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Policy.

The purpose of the Advance Notice Policy is to provide Shareholders, directors and management of the Company with a clear framework for nominating directors of the Company. To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder (as defined in the Advance Notice Policy) must send notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Company:

(a) in the case of an annual meeting of Shareholders, not less than 30 days nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of Shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of Shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder may be given not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the notice date; and

(b) in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of Shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors, not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting of Shareholders was made.

To be in proper written form, a Nominating Shareholder's notice must be addressed to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, and must set forth:

(a) as to each person whom the Nominating Shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director:

(i) the name, age, business address and residential address of the person;
(ii) the present principal occupation or employment of the person and the principal occupation or employment within the five years preceding the notice;
(iii) the citizenship of such person;
(iv) the shareholdings of the person; and
(v) a statement as to whether such person would be “independent”;

(b) the full particulars regarding any oral or written proxy, contract, agreement, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such Nominating Shareholder has a right to vote or direct the voting of any shares of the Company; and

(c) any other information relating to such Nominating Shareholder that would be required to be made in a dissident's proxy circular in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and applicable securities laws.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following information is presented in accordance with National Instrument Form 51-102F6V – Statement of Executive Compensation, and sets forth compensation for each of George Sookochoff, the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”), Nancy Kawazoe (the “CFO”) and Gary Musil, the former CFO and current director (collectively the “NEOs”) and Patrick Brandl and Michael Kriebel, current directors, as at January 31, 2025.

General

For the purposes of this Statement of Executive Compensation:

“CEO” means an individual who acted as chief executive officer of the Company, or acted in a similar capacity, for any part of the most recently completed financial year;

“CFO” means an individual who acted as chief financial officer of the Company, or acted in a similar capacity, for any part of the most recently completed financial year;

“Named Executive Officer” or “NEO” means each of the following individuals:

(a) a CEO;

(b) a CFO;

(c) each of the three most highly compensated executive officers of the Company, including any of its subsidiaries, or the three most highly compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity, other than the CEO and CFO, at the end of the most recently completed financial year and whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000 as determined in accordance with applicable securities laws; and

(d) each individual who would be a NEO under paragraph (c) but for the fact that the individual was neither an executive officer of the Company, nor acting in a similar capacity at the end of the most recently completed financial year.

Based on the foregoing definition, during the last completed fiscal year of the Company, the Company had three NEOs to report, namely, George Sookochoff, the CEO, Nancy Kawazoe, the CFO and Gary Musil, the former CFO.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Company’s compensation philosophy for its Named Executive Officers is designed to attract well qualified individuals in what is essentially an international market by paying competitive base management fees plus short and long term incentive compensation in the form of stock options or other suitable long term incentives. The Board of Directors meets to discuss and determine executive compensation without reference to formal objectives, criteria or analysis. In making its determinations regarding the various elements of executive compensation, the Board of Directors does not benchmark its executive compensation program, but from time to time does review compensation practices of companies of similar size and stage of development to ensure the compensation paid is competitive within the Company’s industry and geographic location while taking into account the financial and other resources of the Company.

The duties and responsibilities of the President and CEO are typical of those of a business entity of the Company’s size in a similar business and include direct reporting responsibility to the Board, overseeing the activities of all other executive and management consultants, representing the Company, providing leadership and responsibility for achieving corporate goals and implementing corporate policies and initiatives.

Elements of Compensation

The Company’s executive compensation policy consists of an annual base salary and long-term incentives in the form of stock options granted under the Company’s Stock Option Plan.

The base salaries paid to officers of the Company are intended to provide fixed levels of competitive pay that reflect each officer’s primary duties and responsibilities and the level of skill and experience required to successfully perform their role. The Company intends to pay base salaries to officers that are competitive with those for similar positions in the mining industry to attract and retain executive talent in the market in which the Company competes for talent. Base salaries of officers are reviewed annually by the Board of Directors.

Compensation Policies and Risk Management

The Board of Directors considers the implications of the risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices when determining rewards for its officers. In 2012, the Board of Directors conducted its initial review and the Company intends to review at least once annually the risks, if any, associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices.

Executive compensation is comprised of short-term compensation in the form of a base salary and long-term ownership through the Company’s Stock Option Plan. This structure ensures that a significant portion of executive compensation (stock options) is both long-term and “at risk” and, accordingly, is directly linked to the achievement of business results and the creation of long-term shareholder value. As the benefits of such compensation, if any, are not realized by officers until a significant period of time has passed, the ability of officers to take inappropriate or excessive risks that are beneficial to their compensation at the expense of the Company and the shareholders is extremely limited. Furthermore, the short-term component of executive compensation (base salary) represents a relatively small part of the total compensation. As a result, it is unlikely an officer would take inappropriate or excessive risks at the expense of the Company or the shareholders that would be beneficial to their short-term compensation when their long-term compensation might be put at risk from their actions.

Due to the small size of the Company and the current level of the Company’s activity, the Board of Directors is able to closely monitor and consider any risks which may be associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices. Risks, if any, may be identified and mitigated through regular Board meetings during which financial and other information of the Company are reviewed. No risks have been identified arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Hedging of Economic Risks in the Company’s Securities

The Company has not adopted a policy prohibiting Directors or officers from purchasing financial instruments that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of the Company’s securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by Directors or officers. However, the Company is not aware of any Directors or officers having entered into this type of transaction.

Share-Based and Option-Based Awards

The Company’s Stock Option Plan has been and will be used to provide share purchase options which are granted in consideration of the level of responsibility of the executive as well as his or her impact or contribution to the longer-term operating performance of the Company. In determining the number of options to be granted to the executive officers, the Board takes into account the number of options, if any, previously granted to each executive officer, and the exercise price of any outstanding options to ensure that such grants are in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, and closely align the interests of the executive officers with the interests of shareholders.

The Board of Directors as a whole has the responsibility to administer the compensation policies related to the executive management of the Company, including option-based awards.

Compensation Governance

Options are granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors, which considers factors such as how other junior exploration companies grant options and the potential value that each optionee is contributing to the Company. The number of options granted to an individual is based on such considerations.

Director and Named Executive Officer Compensation, Excluding Compensation Securities

Exercise of Compensation Securities by Directors and NEOs

During the financial year ended January 31, 2025, no NEO or director exercised compensation securities.

Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

The Company has adopted a stock option plan (the "Option Plan") pursuant to which the Board may grant options (the "Options") to purchase common shares of the Company (the "Shares") to NEOs, directors and employees of the Company or affiliated corporations and to consultants retained by the Company.

The purpose of the Option Plan is to attract, retain, and motivate NEOs, directors, employees and other service providers by providing them with the opportunity, through options, to acquire an interest in the Company and benefit from the Company's growth. Under the Option Plan, the maximum number of Shares reserved for issuance, including Options currently outstanding, is equal to 10% of the Shares outstanding from time to time (the "10%


8

Maximum"). The 10% Maximum is an "evergreen" provision, meaning that, following the exercise, termination, cancellation or expiration of any Options, a number of Shares equivalent to the number of options so exercised, terminated, cancelled or expired would automatically become reserved and available for issuance in respect of future Option grants.

The number of Shares which may be the subject of Options on a yearly basis to any one person cannot exceed 5% of the number of issued and outstanding Shares at the time of the grant. Options may be granted to any employee, officer, director, consultant, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company exercisable at a price which is not less than the market price of common shares of the Company on the date of the grant. The directors of the Company may, by resolution, determine the time period during which any option may be exercised (the "Exercise Period"), provided that the Exercise Period does not contravene any rule or regulation of such exchange on which the Shares may be listed. All Options will terminate on the earliest to occur of (a) the expiry of their term; (b) the date of termination of an optionee's employment, office or position as director, if terminated for just cause; (c) 90 days (or such other period of time as permitted by any rule or regulation of such exchange on which the Shares may be listed) following the date of termination of an optionee's position as a director or NEO, if terminated for any reason other than the optionee's disability or death; (d) 30 days following the date of termination of an optionee's position as a consultant engaged in investor relations activities, if terminated for any reason other than the optionee's disability, death, or just cause; and (e) the date of any sale, transfer or assignment of the Option.

Options are non-assignable and are subject to early termination in the event of the death of a participant or in the event a participant ceases to be a NEO, director, employee, consultant, affiliate, or subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, and certain other restrictions set out in the Option Plan, the Board is authorized to provide for the granting of Options and the exercise and method of exercise of options granted under the Option Plan.

The TSX Venture Exchange requires listed companies that have "rolling" stock option plans in place to receive shareholder approval for such plans on a yearly basis at the company's annual Shareholders meeting.

A copy of the Plan is available for review and at the offices of the Company at Suite 615, 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2V6, during normal business hours up to and including the date of the Meeting. Refer to "Particulars of Matters To Be Acted Upon - Approval and Ratification of Stock Option Plan".

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

Management functions of the Company are not, to any substantial degree, performed other than by directors or NEOs of the Company.

Neither the Company, nor its subsidiaries, has a contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for payments to a NEO following or in connection with any termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, retirement, a change of control of the Company or its subsidiaries, or a change in responsibilities of the NEO following a change in control, other than:

George Sookochoff – Effective November 15, 2019 the Company entered into a management agreement and engaged Cankor Capital Inc. and George Sookochoff (the “Consultants”) to provide consulting services to the Company for a term of six months. The Company has agreed to pay the Consultants $5,000 per month for the first 90 days and $7,500 per month for a further 180 days. The agreement was amended on June 15, 2020 to a monthly remuneration of $10,000.

The agreement with the Consultants also provides that the Company may terminate the agreement at any time by giving written notice of termination. In the event of termination of the agreement by the Company for any reason other than default, the parties agreed that the Company shall pay out the balance of the agreement. In the event of termination for default, either party may terminate the agreement upon the happening of any one of the following events:

(a) the bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up or dissolution, in which event the agreement shall terminate immediately upon delivery of a notice to terminate to the party which is bankrupt, insolvent, winding-up or dissolving, as the case may be, by the other party; or


9

(b) a breach of the agreement by a party that continues for more than 10 days after written notice of such breach is given by the other party, in which event the agreement shall terminate immediately upon the delivery of a notice to terminate to the defaulting party by the other party.

In addition, termination for Change of Control provisions were agreed upon whereby the Consultants may terminate the agreement in the 60 day period following a Change of Control, by giving the Company 30 days written notice of their intent to do so, in which case the Consultants shall provide the Company with an executed standard form of release.

The agreement with the Consultants are in good standing.

Nancy Kawazoe - Effective January 11, 2024, the Company entered into an Office Services Agreement with Nancy Kawazoe pursuant to which Ms. Kawazoe would be paid a monthly salary of $5,000 per month, plus reasonable expenses. The agreement with Ms. Kawazoe is in good standing.

With respect to the above, “Change of Control” means any event, including an amalgamation, merger or consolidation that causes:

(i) a third party to own or control, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the voting shares of the Company;
(ii) a third party to own or control, directly or indirectly, sufficient voting shares in the Company to elect a majority of the directors of the Company;
(iii) an assignment, sale, or transfer by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s business to a third party or to an affiliate or a wholly owned subsidiary; or

Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation

Compensation of Directors

Compensation of directors of the Company is reviewed annually and determined by the Board. The level of compensation for directors is determined after consideration of various relevant factors, including the expected nature and quantity of duties and responsibilities, past performance, comparison with compensation paid by other issuers of comparable size and nature, and the availability of financial resources.

In the Board’s view, there is, and has been, no need for the Company to design or implement a formal compensation program for directors. While the Board considers Option grants to directors under the Option Plan from time to time, the Board does not employ a prescribed methodology when determining the grant or allocation of Options. Other than the Option Plan, as discussed above, the Company does not offer any long-term incentive plans, share compensation plans or any other such benefit programs for directors.

Compensation of NEOs

Compensation of NEOs is reviewed annually and determined by the Board. The level of compensation for NEOs is determined after consideration of various relevant factors, including the expected nature and quantity of duties and responsibilities, past performance, comparison with compensation paid by other issuers of comparable size and nature, and the availability of financial resources. In the Board’s view, there is, and has been, no need for the Company to design or implement a formal compensation program for NEOs.

Elements of NEO Compensation

Salary

The Company’s CEO and CFO receive annual salaries. The Board reviews salaries annually to ensure that they reflect each respective NEO’s performance and experience in fulfilling his/her role. Due to the relatively small size of the Company, limited cash resources, and the early stage and scope of the Company’s operations, NEOs receive limited salaries relative to industry standards. The Board does not currently have any plan in place to materially increase NEOs’ salaries.

Option Plan

As discussed above, the Company provides an Option Plan to motivate NEOs by providing them with the opportunity, through Options, to acquire an interest in the Company and benefit from the Company’s growth. The Board does not employ a prescribed methodology when determining the grant or allocation of Options to NEOs. Other than the Option Plan, the Company does not offer any long-term incentive plans, share compensation plans, retirement plans, pension plans, or any other such benefit programs for NEOs.

Pension Disclosure

No pension, retirement or deferred compensation plans, including defined contribution plans, have been instituted by the Company and none are proposed at this time.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE

Corporate Governance relates to the activities of the Board of Directors. National Policy 58-201 establishes corporate governance guidelines which apply to all public companies. The Company has reviewed its own corporate governance practices in light of these guidelines. In certain cases, the Company's practices comply with the guidelines, however, the Board considers that some of the guidelines are not suitable for the Company at its current stage of development and therefore these guidelines have not been adopted. National Policy 58-201 mandates disclosure of corporate governance practices which disclosure is set out below. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices in the interest of its shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making. The Company will continue to review and implement corporate governance guidelines as the business of the Company progresses.

Independence of the Board

The Board currently consists of four (4) directors. The independent members of the Board, as defined in National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, are Messrs. Patrick Brandl and Michael Kriebel. Messrs. George Sookochoff and Gary Musil are not independent as they are either a current officer or past officer of the Company.

Management Supervision by Board

The operations of the Company do not support a large Board, and the Board has determined that the current size and constitution of the Board is appropriate for the Company's current stage of development. In the event of a conflict of interest at a meeting of the Board, the conflicted director will, in accordance with corporate law and in accordance with his or her fiduciary obligations as a director of the Company, disclose the nature and extent of his or her interest to the meeting and abstain from voting on or against the approval of such participation.

Directorships

The following directors are currently serving on boards of the following other reporting companies (or equivalent) as set out below:

Name of Director Name of Other Reporting Issuer
Gary Musil Ankh II Capital Inc.

Orientation and Continuing Education

New directors to the Board are provided with access to recent publicly filed documents of the Company, all reports and the Company's internal financial information, access to management, experts and consultants, and a summary of significant corporate and securities responsibilities.

Board members are encouraged to communicate with management, auditors and technical consultants, to keep themselves current with industry trends and developments and changes in legislation with management's assistance and to attend related industry seminars and visit the Company's operations. Board members have full access to the Company's records.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company's governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director's participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.


14

Nomination of Directors

The Board has responsibility for identifying and assessing potential Board candidates. Recruitment of new directors has generally resulted from recommendations made by directors, management and Shareholders. The Board assesses potential Board candidates to fill perceived needs on the Board for required skills, expertise, independence and other factors.

Board Committees

Patrick Brandl and Michael Kriebel are independent directors. They have the responsibility of determining compensation for the directors and senior management. To determine compensation payable, the independent directors review compensation paid for directors and Chief Executive Officers of corporations of similar size and stage of development in its industry and determine an appropriate compensation reflecting the need to provide incentive and compensation for the time and effort expended by the directors and senior management, while taking into account the financial and other resources of the Company. In setting the compensation, the independent directors annually review the performance of the Chief Executive Officer in light of the Company's objectives.

There are no other committees other than the Audit Committee.

Assessments

The Board has not developed written descriptions or objectives for its executives and looks to generally accepted industry standards as adequately delineating the roles and responsibilities of such persons. There is no formal process for regular assessment of the Board, its committees and individual directors. Rather the Board informally assesses performance through ongoing dialogue amongst Board members.

5. 2025 STOCK OPTION PLAN

In accordance with Policy 4.4 Security Based Compensation of the TSXV ("Policy 4.4"), "Rolling Up to 10% Plans" must receive shareholder approval yearly. The Company is therefore seeking shareholder approval of the Company's Stock Option Plan, which reserves a maximum of 10% of the issued shares of the Company at the time of any stock option grant. The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to provide incentive to employees, directors, officers and consultants who provide services to the Company and to reduce the cash compensation the Company would otherwise have to pay.

The Stock Option Plan complies with the current policies of the TSXV under Policy 4.4. Under the Stock Option Plan, a maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company are proposed to be reserved at any time for issuance on the exercise of stock options. As the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Stock Option Plan increases with the issue of additional shares of the Company, the Stock Option Plan is considered to be a "rolling up to 10%" stock option plan.

Management is seeking shareholder approval for the Stock Option Plan in accordance with and subject to the rules and policies of the TSXV.

Terms of the Stock Option Plan

The Stock Option Plan provides that the Company's Board of Directors may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with the TSXV's requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees, management company employees and consultants to the Company, non-transferable options to purchase common shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance does not exceed 10% of the common shares of the Company at the time of the stock option grant. Further, unless authorized by disinterested shareholder approval, the Stock Option Plan may not result in the issuance to "Insiders" (as defined in TSXV Policy 1.1 Interpretation), at any time, of a number of common shares exceeding 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares, calculated on the date the option is granted, or the issuance to holders, within a one year period, of a number of common shares exceeding 10% of the common shares issued and outstanding, calculated on the date the option is granted. Individual stock option grants must comply with the terms of the Stock Option Plan and the policies of the TSXV as they relate to the minimum exercise price, hold periods and filing requirements.

The Stock Option Plan provides that:

(a) options will be non-assignable and non-transferable except that they will be exercisable by the personal representative of the option holder in the event of the option holder's death, if exercised within one year of the optionee's death;

(b) options may be exercisable for a maximum of 10 years from the date of grant;


17

(c) options under the Stock Option Plan (plus any other security based compensation of the Company) to acquire no more than 5% of the issued shares of the Company may be granted to any one individual in any 12 month period;

(d) options under the Stock Option Plan (plus any other security based compensation of the Company) to acquire no more than 2% of the issued shares of the Company may be granted to any one consultant in any 12 month period;

(e) options under the Stock Option Plan (plus any other security based compensation of the Company) to acquire no more than 2% of the issued shares of the Company may be granted to all persons (in aggregate) conducting “Investor Relations Activities” (as defined in TSXV Policy 1.1), in any 12 month period;

(f) disinterested shareholder approval must be obtained for any reduction in the exercise price, or extension of the term, if the optionee is an Insider of the Company;

(g) for stock options granted to employees, consultants or Management Company Employees (as defined in Policy 4.4), the Company and the optionee represent that the optionee is a bona fide employee, consultant or Management Company Employee, as the case may be;

(h) for stock options granted to any optionee who is a director, employee, consultant or Management Company Employee, the option must expire within a reasonable period following the date optionee ceases to be in that role (as set out in more detail below);

(i) the exercise price of an option granted under the Stock Option Plan shall not be less than the “Discounted Market Price” (as defined in TSXV Policy 1.1) at the time of granting the option. Options may not be granted which are exercisable at an exercise price that is less than a price permitted by the TSXV. An exercise price cannot be established until options are allocated to a particular optionee;

(j) options granted to persons engaged in Investor Relations Activities will vest in stages over a minimum period of 12 months with no more than one-quarter of the options vesting in any three month period, or as otherwise prescribed by Policy 4.4. These vesting parameters may not be accelerated without prior TSXV approval; and

(k) upon the exercise of an option, an optionee shall pay to the Company the exercise price of the option, in cash or by certified cheque, unless the optionee is utilizing the cashless exercise feature, described below.

If an optionee is a director of the Company and ceases to be director for any reason other than death, such optionee shall have the right to exercise any options not exercised prior to such termination within a reasonable period of time after the date of termination, as set out in the optionee’s option certificate, such reasonable period not to exceed one year after termination. However, if the optionee ceases to be a director as a result of: (i) ceasing to meet the qualifications set forth in the Business Corporation’s Act (British Columbia); (ii) his or her removal as a director pursuant to the Business Corporation’s Act (British Columbia); or (iii) an order made by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction to so order; the expiry date shall be the date the optionee ceases to be a director of the Company.

If an optionee is an officer, employee, Management Company Employee or consultant and ceases to be an officer, employee, Management Company Employee or consultant for any reason other than death, such optionee shall have the right to exercise any options not exercised prior to such termination within a reasonable period of time after the date of termination, as set out in the optionee’s option certificate, such reasonable period not to exceed one year after termination. However, if the optionee ceases to be: (i) an officer or employee as a result of termination for cause; (ii) a Management Company Employee of a as a result of termination for cause; or (iii) an officer, employee, Management Company Employee or consultant as a result of an order made by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction to so order; the expiry date shall be the date the optionee ceases to be a officer, employee, Management Company Employee or consultant of the Company, as the case may be.

If a director, officer, consultant, employee, or Management Company Employee dies prior to the expiry of their options, their legal representatives may, within the lesser of one year from the date of the optionee’s death or the expiry date of the particular options, exercise options granted to the optionee under the Stock Option Plan which remain outstanding.

The directors believe that the Stock Option Plan is in the Company’s best interests and recommend that the shareholders approve the Stock Option Plan. Accordingly, the shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, pass the following ordinary resolution:

As of the date of this Information Circular, the Company has 10,200,000 Options issued and outstanding, as follows:

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

I. Mandate

The primary function of the audit committee (the “Committee”) is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to regulatory authorities and shareholders, the Company’s systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting, and the Company’s auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. Consistent with this function, the Committee will encourage continuous improvement of, and should foster adherence to, the Company’s policies, procedures and practices at all levels. The Committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to:

  • Serve as an independent and objective party to monitor the Company’s financial reporting and internal control system and review the Company’s financial statements.
  • Review and appraise the performance of the Company’s external auditors.
  • Provide an open avenue of communication among the Company’s auditors, financial and senior management and the Board of Directors.

II. Composition

The Committee shall be comprised of three directors as determined by the Board of Directors, the majority of whom shall be free from any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment as a member of the Committee.

All members of the Committee that are not financially literate will work towards becoming financially literate to obtain a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices.

5

Time on the Expiry Date and shall not be exercisable thereafter. In the event that the Expiry Date of an Option falls during a trading blackout period imposed by the Company (the "Blackout Period"), the Expiry Date of such Option shall automatically be extended to a date which is ten (10) trading days following the end of such Blackout Period (the "Extension Period"), subject to no cease trade order being in place under applicable securities laws; provided that if an additional Blackout Period is subsequently imposed by the Company during the Extension Period, then such Extension Period shall be deemed to commence following the end of such additional Blackout Period to enable the exercise of such Option within ten (10) trading days following the end of the last imposed Blackout Period.

Upon notice and payment there will be a binding contract for the issue of the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised, upon and subject to the provisions of the Plan. Delivery of the Optionee's cheque payable to the Company or such other method of payment as is acceptable to the Company in the amount of the Option Price shall constitute payment of the Option Price unless the cheque is not honored upon presentation in which case the Option shall not have been validly exercised.

4.3 Vesting of Option Shares

The Board, subject to the policies of the Exchange, may determine and impose terms upon which each Option shall become Vested in respect of Option Shares. Unless otherwise specified by the Board at the time of granting an Option, and subject to the other limits on Option grants set out in Section 3.2 hereof, all Options granted under the Plan shall vest and become exercisable in full upon grant, except Options granted to Investor Relations Service Providers, which Options must vest in stages over twelve months with no more than one-quarter of the Options vesting in any three month period.

4.4 Termination of Employment

If an Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person, his or her Option shall be exercisable as follows:

(a) Death or Disability

If the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person, due to his or her death or Disability or, in the case of an Optionee that is a company, the death or Disability of the person who provides management or consulting services to the Company or to any entity controlled by the Company, the Option then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of:

(i) 365 days after the date of death or Disability; and
(ii) the Expiry Date;

(b) Termination For Cause

If the Optionee or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person as a result of termination for cause as that term is interpreted by the courts of the jurisdiction in which the Optionee, or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, of the Optionee's employer, is employed or engaged; any outstanding Option held by such Optionee on the date of such termination, whether in respect of Option Shares that are Vested or not, shall be cancelled as of that date.

(c) Early Retirement, Voluntary Resignation or Termination Other than For Cause

If the Optionee or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person due to his or her


6

retirement at the request of his or her employer earlier than the normal retirement date under the Company's retirement policy then in force, or due to his or her termination by the Company other than for cause, or due to his or her voluntary resignation, the Option then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of the Expiry Date and the date which is 90 days (30 days if the Optionee was engaged in Investor Relations Activities) after the Optionee or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person.

(d) Spin-Out Transactions

If pursuant to the operation of sub-paragraph 5.3(c) an Optionee receives options (the "New Options") to purchase securities of another company (the "New Company") in respect of the Optionee's Options (the "Subject Options"), the New Options shall expire on the earlier of: (i) the Expiry Date of the Subject Options; (ii) if the Optionee does not become an Eligible Person in respect of the New Company, the date that the Subject Options expire pursuant to sub-paragraph 4.4(a), (b) or (c), as applicable; (iii) if the Optionee becomes an Eligible Person in respect of the New Company, the date that the New Options expire pursuant to the terms of the New Company's stock option plan that correspond to sub-paragraphs 4.4(a), (b) or (c) hereof; and (iv) the date that is one (1) year after the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person in respect of the New Company or such shorter period as determined by the Board.

(e) Eligible Charitable Organizations

If the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person due to no longer being an Eligible Charitable Organization, the Options then held by that Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of the Expiry Date and the date which is 90 days after the date the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion if it determines such is in the best interests of the Company, extend the early Expiry Date (as set out above in this paragraph 4.4) of any Option held by an Optionee who ceases to be an Eligible Person to a later date within a reasonable period, subject to such period not exceeding 12 months from the date the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person.

For purposes of this paragraph 4.4, the dates of death, Disability, termination, retirement, voluntary resignation, ceasing to be an Eligible Person and incapacity shall be interpreted to be without regard to any period of notice (statutory or otherwise) or whether the Optionee or his or her estate continues thereafter to receive any compensatory payments from the Company or is paid salary by the Company in lieu of notice of termination.

For greater certainty, an Option that had not become Vested in respect of certain Unissued Option Shares at the time that the relevant event referred to in this section 4.4 occurred, shall not be or become vested or exercisable in respect of such Unissued Option Shares and shall be cancelled.

4.5 Effect of a Take-Over Bid

If a bona fide offer (an "Offer") for Shares is made to the Optionee or to shareholders of the Company generally or to a class of shareholders which includes the Optionee, which Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in the offeror becoming a control person of the Company, within the meaning of subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act, the Company shall, immediately upon receipt of notice of the Offer, notify each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, whereupon (subject to the approval of the Exchange with respect to Investor Relations Service Providers) all Option Shares subject to such Offer will become Vested and the Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee so as to permit the Optionee to tender the Option Shares received upon such exercise, pursuant to the Offer. However, if:

(a) the Offer is not completed within the time specified therein; or


(b) all of the Option Shares tendered by the Optionee pursuant to the Offer are not taken up or paid for by the offeror in respect thereof,

then the Option Shares received upon such exercise, or in the case of clause (b) above, the Option Shares that are not taken up and paid for, may be returned by the Optionee to the Company and reinstated as authorized but unissued Shares and with respect to such returned Option Shares, the Option shall be reinstated as if it had not been exercised and the terms upon which such Option Shares were to become Vested pursuant to section 4.3 shall be reinstated. If any Option Shares are returned to the Company under this section 4.5, the Company shall immediately refund the exercise price to the Optionee for such Option Shares.

4.6 Acceleration of Expiry Date

If at any time when an Option granted under the Plan remains unexercised with respect to any Unissued Option Shares, an Offer is made by an offeror, the Board may, upon notifying each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer and subject to the approval of the Exchange with respect to Investor Relations Service Providers, declare all Option Shares issuable upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan, Vested, and declare that the Expiry Date for the exercise of all unexercised Options granted under the Plan is accelerated so that all Options will either be exercised or will expire prior to the date upon which Shares must be tendered pursuant to the Offer. The Board shall give each Optionee as much notice as possible of the acceleration of the Options under this section, except that not less than 5 business days notice is required and more than 30 days notice is not required.

4.7 Compulsory Acquisition or Going Private Transaction

If and whenever, following a take-over bid or issuer bid, there shall be a compulsory acquisition of the Shares of the Company pursuant to Division 6 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) or any successor or similar legislation, or any amalgamation, merger or arrangement in which securities acquired in a formal take-over bid may be voted under the conditions described in Section 8.2 of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, then following the date upon which such compulsory acquisition, amalgamation, merger or arrangement is effective, an Optionee shall be entitled to receive, and shall accept, for the same exercise price, in lieu of the number of Shares to which such Optionee was theretofore entitled to purchase upon the exercise of his or her Options, the aggregate amount of cash, shares, other securities or other property which such Optionee would have been entitled to receive as a result of such bid if he or she had tendered such number of Shares to the take-over bid.

4.8 Effect of a Change of Control

If a Change of Control occurs, all Option Shares subject to each outstanding Option will become Vested, whereupon such Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee, subject to the approval of the Exchange with respect to Investor Relations Service Providers or if otherwise necessary.

4.9 Exclusion from Severance Allowance, Retirement Allowance or Termination Settlement

If the Optionee, or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, retires, resigns or is terminated from employment or engagement with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, the loss or limitation, if any, pursuant to the Option Agreement with respect to the right to purchase Option Shares which were not Vested at that time or which, if Vested, were cancelled, shall not give rise to any right to damages and shall not be included in the calculation of nor form any part of any severance allowance, retiring allowance or termination settlement of any kind whatsoever in respect of such Optionee.


8

4.10 Shares Not Acquired

Any Unissued Option Shares not acquired by an Optionee under an Option which has been settled in cash, cancelled, terminated, surrendered, forfeited or expired without being exercised, may be made the subject of a further Option pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

5. ADJUSTMENT OF OPTION PRICE AND NUMBER OF OPTION SHARES

5.1 Share Reorganization

Whenever the Company issues Shares to all or substantially all holders of Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution (subject to the prior approval of the Exchange), or subdivides all outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, or combines or consolidates all outstanding Shares into a lesser number of Shares (each of such events being herein called a "Share Reorganization") then effective immediately after the record date for such dividend or other distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, for each Option:

(a) the Option Price will be adjusted to a price per Share which is the product of:

(i) the Option Price in effect immediately before that effective date or record date; and

(ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Shares outstanding on that effective date or record date before giving effect to the Share Reorganization, and the denominator of which is the total number of Shares that are or would be outstanding immediately after such effective date or record date after giving effect to the Share Reorganization; and

(b) the number of Unissued Option Shares will be adjusted by multiplying (i) the number of Unissued Option Shares immediately before such effective date or record date by (ii) a fraction which is the reciprocal of the fraction described in subsection (a)(ii).

Any increase in the number of Unissued Option Shares as a result of the adjustment provisions provided in this section 5.1 is subject to compliance with the limits set out in section 3.2 and, if any increase in the number of Unissued Option Shares as a result of the adjustment provisions provided in this section 5.1 would result in any limit set out in section 3.2 being exceeded, then the Company may, if determined by the Board in its sole and unfettered discretion (subject to the prior approval of the Exchange), make payment in cash to the Optionee in lieu of increasing the number of Unissued Option Shares in order to properly reflect any diminution in value of the Option Shares as a result of such Share Reorganization.

5.2 Special Distribution

Subject to the prior approval of the Exchange, whenever the Company issues by way of a dividend or otherwise distributes to all or substantially all holders of Shares;

(a) shares of the Company, other than the Shares;

(b) evidences of indebtedness;

(c) any cash or other assets, excluding cash dividends (other than cash dividends which the Board has determined to be outside the normal course); or

(d) rights, options or warrants;

then to the extent that such dividend or distribution does not constitute a Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a "Special Distribution"), and effective immediately after the record date at which holders of Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution, for each Option the Option Price will be reduced, and the number of Unissued Option Shares will be


9

correspondingly increased, by such amount, if any, as is determined by the Board in its sole and unfettered discretion to be appropriate in order to properly reflect any diminution in value of the Option Shares as a result of such Special Distribution. Any increase in the number of Unissued Option Shares as a result of the adjustment provisions provided in this section 5.2 is subject to compliance with the limits set out in section 3.2 and, if any increase in the number of Unissued Option Shares as a result of the adjustment provisions provided in this section 5.2 would result in any limit set out in section 3.2 being exceeded, then the Company may, if determined by the Board in its sole and unfettered discretion (subject to the prior approval of the Exchange), make payment in cash to the Optionee in lieu of increasing the number of Unissued Option Shares in order to properly reflect any diminution in value of the Option Shares as a result of such Special Distribution.

5.3 Corporate Organization

Subject to the prior approval of the Exchange, whenever there is:

(a) a reclassification of outstanding Shares, a change of Shares into other shares or securities, or any other capital reorganization of the Company, other than as described in sections 5.1 or 5.2;

(b) a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into another corporation resulting in a reclassification of outstanding Shares into other shares or securities or a change of Shares into other shares or securities;

(c) an arrangement or other transaction under which, among other things, the business or assets of the Company become, collectively, the business and assets of two or more companies with the same shareholder group upon the distribution to the Company's shareholders, or the exchange with the Company's shareholders, of securities of the Company, or securities of another company, or both; or

(d) a transaction whereby all or substantially all of the Company's undertaking and assets become the property of another corporation (subject to prior approval of the Exchange);

(any such event being herein called a "Corporate Reorganization") the Optionee will have an option to purchase (at the times, for the consideration, and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Plan) and will accept on the exercise of such option, in lieu of the Unissued Option Shares which he/she would otherwise have been entitled to purchase, the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property that he/she would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Corporate Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, he/she had been the holder of all Unissued Option Shares or if appropriate, as otherwise determined by the Board.

5.4 Determination of Option Price and Number of Unissued Option Shares

If any questions arise at any time with respect to the Option Price or number of Unissued Option Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option following a Share Reorganization, Special Distribution or Corporate Reorganization, such questions shall be conclusively determined by the Company's auditor, or, if they decline to so act, any other firm of Chartered Accountants in Vancouver, British Columbia, that the Board may designate and who will have access to all appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company and all Optionees.

5.5 Regulatory Approval

Any adjustment to the Option Price or the number of Unissued Option Shares purchasable under the Plan pursuant to the operation of any one of sections 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3 is subject to the prior approval of the Exchange and any other governmental authority having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, adjustments pursuant to section 5.1 due to a Share subdivision or consolidation do not require prior TSX Venture Exchange approval.

6. MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 Right to Employment

Neither this Plan nor any of the provisions hereof shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to employment or continued employment with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to terminate such employment.

6.2 Necessary Approvals

The Plan shall be effective upon the approval of the Plan by the Board and the Exchange or any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the securities of the Company and shall be ratified thereafter by the shareholders of the Company by way of an ordinary resolution at the next duly convened meeting of the shareholders of the Company. Disinterested shareholder approval (as required by the Exchange) will be obtained for any reduction in the exercise price, or any extension of the term, of any Option granted under this Plan if the Optionee is an Insider of the Company at the time of the proposed amendment. In addition, any amendment to an Option (including any cancellation of an Option and subsequent grant of a new Option to the same Person within one year) that results in a benefit to an Insider of the Company at the time of amendment will be subject to disinterested shareholder approval (as required by the Exchange). The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares in accordance with the Plan is subject to the approval of the Exchange and any governmental authority having jurisdiction. If any Shares cannot be issued to any Optionee for any reason, including, without limitation, the failure to obtain such approval, then the obligation of the Company to issue such Shares shall terminate and any Option Price paid by an Optionee to the Company shall be immediately refunded to the Optionee by the Company.

6.3 Administration of the Plan

The Board shall, without limitation, have full and final authority in their discretion, but subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable in respect of the Plan. Except as set forth in section 5.4 and subject to any required prior Exchange approval, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Board shall be final and conclusive. Administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the appropriate officers of the Company and all costs in respect thereof shall be paid by the Company.

6.4 Withholding Taxes

The exercise of each Option granted under the Plan is subject to the condition that if at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding liabilities is necessary or desirable in respect of such exercise, such exercise is not effective unless such withholding has been effected to the satisfaction of the Company. In such circumstances, the Company may require that the Optionee pay to the Company, in addition to and in the same manner as the exercise price for the Shares, such amount as the Company is obliged to remit to the relevant tax authority in respect of the exercise of the Option. Alternatively, the Company shall have the right in its discretion to satisfy any such liability for withholding or other required deduction amounts by retaining or acquiring any Shares acquired upon exercise of any Option, or retaining any amount payable, which would otherwise be issued or delivered, provided or paid to an Optionee by the Company, whether or not such amounts are payable under the Plan. For greater certainty and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, section 6.4 of the Plan shall not supersede the requirements under Exchange Policy 4.4 nor shall the said section 6.4 potentially result in the alteration of the exercise price of Options.

6.5 Amendments to the Plan

The Board may from time to time, subject to applicable law and to the prior approval, if required, of the shareholders (or disinterested shareholders, if required), Exchange or any other regulatory body having authority over the Company or the Plan, suspend, terminate or discontinue the Plan at any time, or amend or revise the terms of the Plan or of any Option granted under the Plan and the Option Agreement relating thereto, provided that no such amendment, revision, suspension, termination or discontinuance


11

shall in any manner adversely affect any Option previously granted to an Optionee under the Plan without the consent of that Optionee.

6.6 Form of Notice

A notice given to the Company shall be in writing, signed by the Optionee and delivered to the head business office of the Company.

6.7 No Representation or Warranty

The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of any Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

6.8 Compliance with Applicable Law

If any provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement contravenes any law or any order, policy, by-law or regulation of any regulatory body or Exchange having authority over the Company or the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to bring such provision into compliance therewith.

6.9 No Assignment or Transfer

No Optionee may assign or transfer any of his or her rights under the Plan or any option granted thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where permitted under applicable policies of the Exchange, companies that are wholly owned by Eligible Persons may be issued Options.

6.10 Rights of Optionees

An Optionee shall have no rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company in respect of any of the Unissued Option Shares (including, without limitation, voting rights or any right to receive dividends, warrants or rights under any rights offering).

6.11 Previously Granted Options

Stock options which are outstanding under pre-existing stock option plan(s) of the Company as of the effective date of this Plan shall continue to be exercisable and shall be deemed to be governed by and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan except to the extent that the terms of this Plan are more restrictive than the terms of such pre-existing plan(s) under which such stock options were originally granted, in which case the applicable pre-existing plan(s) shall govern, provided that any stock options granted, issued or amended after November 23, 2021 must comply with TSXV Policy 4.4 - Incentive Stock Options (as at November 24, 2021).

6.12 Conflict

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and an Option Agreement, the provisions of this Plan shall govern.

6.13 Governing Law

The Plan and each Option Agreement issued pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the province of British Columbia.

6.14 Time of Essence

Time is of the essence of this Plan and of each Option Agreement. No extension of time will be deemed to be or to operate as a waiver of the essentiality of time.

6.15 Entire Agreement

This Plan and the Option Agreement sets out the entire agreement between the Company and the Optionees relative to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, undertakings and understandings, whether oral or written.
