INFORMATION CIRCULAR
as of September 29, 2025
(except as otherwise indicated)

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of BioNxt Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) for use at the annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of its shareholders (the “Shareholders”) to be held on November 7, 2025, at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of the Meeting.

In this Information Circular, references to the “Company”, “BioNxt”, “we” and “our” refer to BioNxt Solutions Inc. “Common Shares” means common shares without par value in the capital of the Company. “Registered Shareholders” means Shareholders of the Company who hold Common Shares in their own name. “Beneficial Shareholders” means shareholders of the Company who do not hold Common Shares in their own name and “intermediaries” refers to brokers, investment firms, clearing houses and similar entities that own securities on behalf of Beneficial Shareholders. The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has approved the contents and distribution of this Information Circular. All dollar amounts referred to herein are in Canadian currency unless otherwise indicated.

GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, but proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by directors, officers and regular employees of the Company. The Company will bear all costs of this solicitation. We have arranged for intermediaries to forward the meeting materials to beneficial owners of the Common Shares held of record by those intermediaries and we may reimburse the intermediaries for their reasonable fees and disbursements in that regard.

Appointment of Proxyholders

The individuals named in the accompanying form of proxy (the “Proxy”) are directors and/or officers of the Company. If you are a shareholder entitled to vote at the Meeting, you have the right to appoint a person or company other than either of the persons designated in the Proxy, who need not be a shareholder, to attend and act for you and on your behalf at the Meeting. You may do so either by inserting the name of that other person in the blank space provided in the Proxy or by completing and delivering another suitable form of proxy.

Voting by Proxyholder

The persons named in the Proxy will vote or withhold from voting the Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with your instructions on any ballot that may be called for. If you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, your Common Shares will be voted accordingly. The Proxy confers discretionary authority on the persons named therein with respect to:

(a) each matter or group of matters identified therein for which a choice is not specified, other than the appointment of an auditor and the election of directors;
(b) any amendment to or variation of any matter identified therein; and
(c) any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting.

In respect of a matter for which a choice is not specified in the Proxy, the persons named in the Proxy will vote the Common Shares represented by the Proxy for the approval of such matter.

Registered Shareholders

Registered Shareholders may wish to vote by proxy whether or not they are able to attend the Meeting in person. Registered Shareholders may choose one of the following options to submit their proxy:

(a) complete, date and sign the Proxy and return it to the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (“Computershare”), by fax within North America at 1-866-249-7775, outside North America at (416) 263-9524, or by mail or by hand to the 320 Bay Street, 14th Floor, Toronto, ON M5H 4A6; or

(b) use a touch-tone phone to transmit voting choices to the toll-free number given in the proxy. Registered shareholders must follow the instructions of the voice response system and refer to the enclosed proxy form for the toll-free number, the holder’s account number and the proxy access number; or

(c) log onto Computershare’s website at www.investorvote.com. Registered Shareholders must follow the instructions provided on the website and refer to the enclosed proxy form for the holder’s account number and the proxy access number.

In all cases the Registered Shareholder must ensure the proxy is received at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays) before the Meeting or the adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used.

Failure to complete or deposit a proxy properly may result in its invalidation. The time limit for the deposit of proxies may be waived by the Company’s Board at its discretion without notice. Please note that in order to vote your Common Shares in person at the Meeting, you must attend the Meeting and register with the Scrutineer before the Meeting. If you have already submitted a Proxy but choose to change your method of voting and attend the Meeting to vote, then you should register with the Scrutineer before the Meeting and inform them that your previously submitted proxy is revoked and that you personally will vote your Common Shares at the Meeting.

Beneficial Shareholders

The following information is of significant importance to shareholders who do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Beneficial Shareholders should note that the only proxies that can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting are those deposited by registered shareholders (those whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares) or as set out in the following disclosure.

If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those Common Shares will not be registered in the shareholder’s name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the names of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker (the “intermediary”). In the United States the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of Cede & Co. as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (which acts as depositary for many United States brokerage firms and custodian banks), and in Canada, under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of meetings of shareholders. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients.

There are two kinds of Beneficial Shareholders - those who object to their name being made known to the issuers of securities which they own (called “OBOs”, for Objecting Beneficial Owners) and those who do


not object to the issuers of the securities they own knowing who they are (called “NOBOs”, for Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners).

The Company is taking advantage of the provisions of National Instrument 54-101 “Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer” that permit it to deliver proxy-related materials directly to its NOBOs. As a result, NOBOs can expect to receive a scannable Voting Instruction Form (“VIF”) Computershare. The VIF is to be completed and returned to Computershare as set out in the instructions provided on the VIF. Computershare will tabulate the results of the VIFs received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the shares represented by the VIFs they receive.

These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities of the Company. If you are a non-registered owner, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name, address and information about your holdings of securities were obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding securities on your behalf.

By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Company (and not the intermediary holding securities on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your VIF as specified in the request for voting instructions that was sent to you.

The Company does not intend to pay for intermediaries to forward these materials to OBOs. As a result, OBOs will not receive the materials unless their intermediary assumes the costs of delivery.

OBOs should follow the instructions of their intermediary carefully to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting.

The form of proxy supplied to you by your broker will be similar to the Proxy provided to registered shareholders by the Company. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the intermediary on how to vote your Common Shares on your behalf. Most brokers delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) in the United States and in Canada. Broadridge mails a VIF in lieu of a proxy provided by the Company. The VIF will name the same persons as the Company’s Proxy to represent your Common Shares at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a Beneficial Shareholder of the Company), other than any of the persons designated in the VIF, to represent your Common Shares at the Meeting and that person may be you. To exercise this right, insert the name of the desired representative (which may be yourself) in the blank space provided in the VIF. The completed VIF must then be returned to Broadridge by mail or facsimile or given to Broadridge by phone or over the internet in accordance with Broadridge’s instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting and the appointment of any shareholder’s representative. If you receive a VIF from Broadridge the VIF must be completed and returned to Broadridge, in accordance with its instructions, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have your Common Shares voted or to have an alternate representative duly appointed to attend the Meeting and vote your Common Shares at the Meeting.

Notice to Shareholders in the United States

The solicitation of proxies involves securities of an issuer located in Canada and is being effected in accordance with the corporate laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and securities laws of the provinces of Canada. The proxy solicitation rules under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are not applicable to the Company or this solicitation, and this solicitation has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the securities laws of the provinces of Canada. Shareholders should be aware that disclosure requirements under the securities laws of the provinces of Canada differ from the disclosure requirements under United States securities laws.

The enforcement by Shareholders of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act

  • 4 -

(British Columbia) (the “BCA”), as amended, certain of its directors and its executive officers are residents of Canada and a substantial portion of its assets and the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. Shareholders may not be able to sue a foreign company or its officers or directors in a foreign court for violations of United States federal securities laws. It may be difficult to compel a foreign company and its officers and directors to subject themselves to a judgment by a United States court.

Revocation of Proxies

In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a registered Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by:

(a) executing a proxy bearing a later date or by executing a valid notice of revocation, either of the foregoing to be executed by the Registered Shareholder or the Registered Shareholder’s authorized attorney in writing, or, if the Registered Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney duly authorized, and by delivering the proxy bearing a later date to Computershare or at the address of the registered office of the Company at Suite 1500, Royal Centre, 1055 West Georgia Street, P.O. Box 11117, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4N7, at any time up to and including the last business day that precedes the day of the Meeting or, if the Meeting is adjourned, the last business day that precedes any reconvening thereof, or to the chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any reconvening thereof, or in any other manner provided by law, or

(b) personally attending the Meeting and voting the Registered Shareholder’s Common Shares.

A revocation of a proxy will not affect a matter on which a vote is taken before the revocation.

Beneficial Shareholders who wish to change their vote must in sufficient time in advance of the Meeting, arrange for their respective intermediaries to change their vote and if necessary, revoke their proxy in accordance with revocation procedures set out above.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

No director or executive officer of the Company, nor any person who has held such a position since the beginning of the last completed financial year of the Company, nor any nominee for election as a director of the Company, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting other than the election of directors and appointment of auditor as described herein.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SECURITIES

The board of directors of the Company has fixed September 29, 2025, as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of persons entitled to receive notice of the Meeting. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date who either attend the Meeting personally or complete, sign and deliver a form of proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described above will be entitled to vote or to have their Common Shares voted at the Meeting.

The authorized share structure of the Company is an unlimited number of Common Shares each carrying the right to one vote. As of Record Date, there were 121,175,259 Common Shares issued and outstanding. No group of shareholders has the right to elect a specified number of directors, nor are there cumulative or similar voting rights attached to the Common Shares.

The Company’s Common Shares are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) under stock symbol “BNXT” and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under stock symbol “BXT”.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company, there were no persons or corporations that beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or exercised control or direction over, Common

  • 5 -

Shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding Common Shares of the Company as of September 29, 2025.

VOTES NECESSARY TO PASS RESOLUTIONS

A simple majority of affirmative votes cast at the Meeting is required to pass the resolutions described herein. If there are more nominees for election as directors or appointment of the Company’s auditor than there are vacancies to fill, those nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected or appointed, as the case may be, until all such vacancies have been filled. If the number of nominees for election or appointment is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled, all such nominees will be declared elected or appointed by acclamation.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The term of office of each of the current directors will end at the conclusion of the Meeting. Unless the director’s office is vacated earlier in accordance with the provisions of the BCA, each director elected will hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, or if no director is then elected, until a successor is elected.

Advance Notice Provision

The Company’s Articles include an advance notice provision (the “Advance Notice Provision”). The Advance Notice Provision provides for advance notice to the Company in circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the Company are made by shareholders of the Company other than pursuant to (i) a requisition of a meeting made pursuant to the provisions of the BCA or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the BCA.

The purpose of the Advance Notice Provision is to foster a variety of interests of the shareholders and the Company by ensuring that all shareholders - including those participating in a meeting by proxy rather than in person - receive adequate notice of the nominations to be considered at a meeting and can thereby exercise their voting rights in an informed manner. Among other things, the Advance Notice Provision fixes a deadline by which holders of Common Shares must submit director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the minimum information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Company for the notice to be in proper written form.

The Advance Notice Provision also requires all proposed director nominees to deliver a written representation and agreement that such candidate for nomination, if elected as a director of the Company, will comply with all applicable corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality, share ownership, majority voting and insider trading policies and other policies and guidelines of the Company applicable to directors and in effect during such person’s term in office as a director.

The foregoing is merely a summary of the Advance Notice Provision, is not comprehensive and is qualified by the full text of such provision in the Company’s current Articles which were filed on December 28, 2018 under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

General

The Board believes that good corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all shareholders. National Policy 58-201 - Corporate Governance Guidelines provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for reporting issuers such as the Company. In addition, National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101") prescribes certain disclosure by the Company of its corporate governance practices. This disclosure is presented below.

Board of Directors

Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the Board's opinion, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment.

The Board is currently comprised of five directors, Joseph Meagher, Raimar Löbenberg, Wolfgang Probst, Hugh Rogers and David Waterhouse. Dr. Löbenberg and Messrs. Meagher and Waterhouse are independent members of the Board. The non-independent members of the Board are Hugh Rogers, Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Wolfgang Probst, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company.

The Board facilitates its exercise of independent supervision over the Company's management through frequent discussions with management and regular meetings of the Board. The Company is currently taking active steps to seek independent directors to sit on the Board in the future.

Directorships

The following directors are board members of other reporting issuers as follows:

Name of Director Name of Reporting Issuer Exchange
Joseph Meagher Golden Spike Resources Corp. CSE
Hugh Rogers Telo Genomics Corp. Intertidal Capital Corp. Clear Blue Technologies International Inc. TSXV TSXV TSXV
David Waterhouse Nexcel Metals Corp. CSE

Orientation and Continuing Education

While the Company does not have formal orientation and training programs, new directors are provided with access to publicly filed documents of the Company, technical reports, internal financial information, and management and technical experts and consultants.

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. Under corporate legislation, a director is required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances, and disclose to the Board the nature and extent of any interest of the director in any material contract or material transaction, whether made or proposed, if the director is a party to the contract or transaction, is a director or officer (or an individual acting in a similar capacity) of a party to the contract or transaction or has a material interest in a party to the contract or transaction.

Nomination of Directors

The Board is responsible for identifying individuals believed to be qualified to become board members, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, and to nominate to stand for election at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders or, if applicable, at a special meeting of the shareholders. In case of vacancy in the office of a director (including a vacancy created by an increase in the size of the Board), the Board shall fill each such vacancy either through appointment by the Board or through election by shareholders. In recommending candidates, the Board shall take into consideration the opinions of management of the Company, the criteria approved by the Board and such other factors as it deems appropriate. These factors shall include judgment, skill, integrity, independence, diversity, experience with business and organizations of comparable size, the interplay of a candidate’s experience with the experience of other Board members, willingness to commit the necessary time and energy to serve as director, and a genuine interest in the Company’s business, and the extent to which a candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board or any committees of the Board.

Compensation

The Board conducts annual reviews regarding directors’ and officers’ compensation to ensure development of a compensation strategy that properly aligns the interests of directors and officers with the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders. See also “Statement of Executive Compensation – Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation”.

Other Board Committees

The Audit Committee is the only Board Committee of the Company.

Assessments

The Board monitors the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management and the strategic direction and processes of the Board.

Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

10% Rolling Stock Option Plan (Option-Based Awards)

The Company has in place a 10% "rolling" stock option plan (the "Option Plan") approved by the board of directors effective November 28, 2018, and most recently approved by Shareholders at the Company's annual general meeting held on November 1, 2024. The Option Plan is a "rolling" plan which allows the


Company to grant stock options (“Options”) to a maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, from time to time. As at the date of this Information Circular, there were 7,120,000 Options outstanding under the Option Plan. See disclosure under heading “Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans” below.

The Company believes that encouraging its executives and employees to become shareholders is the best way of aligning their interests with those of its shareholders. Equity participation is accomplished through the Option Plan. Options may be granted to executives and employees taking into account a number of factors, including the amount and term of options previously granted, base salary and bonuses and competitive factors.

The Option Plan is administered by the Board. In determining the number of incentive Options to be granted to the NEOs, the Board has regard to several considerations including previous grants of Options and the overall number of outstanding Options relative to the number of outstanding Common Shares, as well as the degree of effort, time, responsibility, ability, experience and level of commitment of the executive officer.

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Option Plan:

(i) the maximum number of Options which may be granted to any one holder under the Option Plan within any 12-month period shall be 5% of the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares (unless the Company has obtained disinterested shareholder approval if required by applicable laws);

(ii) if required by applicable laws, disinterested shareholder approval is required to the grant to related persons, within a 12-month period, of a number of Options which, when added to the number of outstanding Options granted to related persons within the previous 12 months, exceed 10% of the issued Common Shares;

(iii) the expiry date of an Option shall be no later than the tenth anniversary of the grant date of such Option;

(iv) the maximum number of Options which may be granted to any one consultant within any 12-month period must not exceed 2% of the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares;

(v) the maximum number of Options which may be granted within any 12-month period to employees or consultants engaged in investor relations activities must not exceed 2% of the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares and such Options must vest in stages over 12 months with no more than 25% of the Options vesting in any three month period;

(vi) the exercise price of any Option issued under the Stock Option Plan shall not be less than the Market Value (as defined in the Option Plan) of the Common Shares as of the grant date; and

(vii) the Board, or any committee to whom the Board delegates, may determine the vesting schedule for any Option.

The foregoing summary of the Option Plan is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Option Plan, which is available on the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

Restricted Share Unit Plan (Share-Based Awards)

The board of the directors of the Company adopted a Restricted Share Unit Plan (the “RSU Plan”) dated effective June 23, 2021, and most recently approved by Shareholders at the Company’s annual general meeting held on November 1, 2024. The purpose of the RSU Plan is to promote and advance the interests of the Company by providing directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company with an additional incentive through the opportunity to receive bonuses in the form of Common Shares. The potential of receiving Common Shares also increases the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate directors, officers, employees, and consultants.

The following is a summary of the material terms of the RSU Plan:

Administration

The RSU Plan shall be administered by the Board, which will have the full and final authority to provide for the granting, vesting, settlement and the method of settlement of RSUs granted thereunder. RSUs may be granted to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company, as the Board may from time to time designate. The Board has the right to delegate the administration and operation of the RSU Plan to a committee and/or any member of the Board.

Number of Common Shares Reserved

Subject to adjustment as provided for in the RSU Plan, the aggregate number of Common Shares which will be available for issuance under the RSU Plan will not, when combined with Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to other share compensation arrangements (including the Option Plan) exceed 20% of the number of Common Shares which are issued and outstanding on the particular date of grant. If any RSU expires or otherwise terminates for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Common Shares in respect of such expired or terminated RSU shall again be available for the purposes of granting RSUs pursuant to the RSU Plan.

Granting, Settlement and Expiry of RSUs

Under the RSU Plan, eligible persons may (at the discretion of the Board) be allocated a number of RSUs as the Board deems appropriate, with vesting provisions also to be determined by the Board. Upon vesting, subject to the provisions of the RSU Plan, the RSU holder may settle its RSUs during the settlement period applicable to such RSUs, provided that no expiry date or any vesting date is a date that is more than three years from the Grant Date (as such term is defined in the RSU Plan). A RSU holder shall be entitled to receive one Common Share for each vested RSU or, at the sole option of the Company, a cash payment equal to the number of RSUs vested, multiplied by the market price of Common Shares on the redemption date.

Termination

Except as otherwise determined by the Board:

(a) all RSUs held by the RSU holder (whether vested or unvested) shall terminate automatically on the date which the RSU holder cases to be eligible to participate in the RSU Plan or otherwise on such date on which the Company terminates its engagement of the RSU holder (the “RSU Holder Termination Date”) for any reason other than as set forth in paragraph (b) and (c) below;

(b) in the case of a termination of the RSU holder’s service by reason of (A) termination by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company other than for cause, or (B) the RSU holder’s death or disability, the RSU holder’s unvested RSUs shall vest automatically as of such date, and on the earlier of the original expiry date and any time during the ninety (90) day period commencing on

  • 17 -

the date of such termination of service (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date), the RSU holder (or their executor or administrator, or the person or persons to whom the RSUs are transferred by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution) will be eligible to request that the Company settle their vested RSUs. Where, prior to the 90th day following such termination of service (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date) the RSU holder fails to elect to settle a vested RSU, the RSU holder shall be deemed to have elected to settle such RSU on such 90th day (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date) and to receive Common Shares in respect thereof;

(c) in the case of a termination of the RSU holder’s services by reason of voluntary resignation, only the RSU holder’s unvested RSUs shall terminate automatically as of such date, and any time during the ninety (90) day period commencing on the date of such termination of service (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date), the RSU holder will be eligible to request that the Company settle their vested RSUs. Where, prior to the 90th day following such termination of service (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date) the RSU holder fails to elect to settle a vested RSU, the RSU holder shall be deemed to have elected to settle such RSU on such 90th day (or, if earlier, the RSU Holder Termination Date) and to receive Common Shares in respect thereof;

(d) for greater certainty, where a RSU holder’s employment, term of office or other engagement with the Company terminates by reason of termination by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company for cause then any RSUs held by the RSU holder (whether unvested or vested) at the RSU Holder Termination Date, immediately terminate and are cancelled on the RSU Holder Termination Date or at a time as may be determined by the Board, in its discretion;

(e) a RSU holder’s eligibility to receive further grants of RSUs under the RSU Plan ceases as of the earliest of the date the RSU holder resigns from or terminates its engagement with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company and the date that the Company or any subsidiary of the Company provides the RSU holder with written notification that the RSU holder’s employment, term of office or engagement, as the case may be, is terminated, notwithstanding that such date may be prior to the RSU Holder Termination Date; and

(f) for the purposes of the RSU Plan, a RSU holder shall not be deemed to have terminated service or engagement where the RSU holder: (i) remains in employment or office within or among the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or (ii) is on a leave of absence approved by the Board.

The foregoing summary of the RSU Plan is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the RSU Plan, which is available on the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

Except as disclosed below, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have any agreements or arrangements with any of the Named Executive Officers or directors of the Company or its subsidiaries under which compensation was provided during the year ended December 31, 2024, or remains payable in respect of services provided by such Named Executive Officer or director.

Hugh Rogers - The Company entered into an employment agreement with Hugh Rogers (“Rogers”) dated January 1, 2019, and amended effective January 1, 2023, (the “Rogers Agreement”), to remain in force subject to termination as provided in the Rogers Agreement. Rogers received a gross salary of $180,000 per annum, payable in equal monthly instalments and reviewable by the Company on an annual basis. Rogers was entitled to stock options as determined by the Company. Rogers could receive bonus payments at the sole discretion of the Board. The Company could terminate the Rogers Agreement for just cause without notice, at which time only the amounts owing at termination would be payable. If the Company terminated Rogers’ employment without just cause or Rogers terminated the Rogers Agreement for good reason, the Company would be required to pay Rogers a termination fee equal to 24 months of Rogers’ then current monthly salary. If in 12 months following a change of control, the Company terminated Rogers’ employment without just cause or if Rogers terminated the Rogers Agreement within six months after a

  • 18 -

change of control for good reason, then the Company would be required to pay Rogers an amount equal to 24 months of Rogers' then current monthly salary. Assuming a change of control occurred as of the date hereof and Rogers' employment was terminated without just cause or Rogers terminated the Rogers Agreement for good reason, Rogers would be entitled to an estimated payment of $360,000. The Rogers Agreement was mutually terminated on January 1, 2025.

The Named Executive Officers and directors who do not have a written agreement with the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and received compensation did so under verbal agreements with the Company.

Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation

The Board does not have a compensation committee or a formal compensation policy. The Company relies solely on the directors to determine the compensation of the NEOs. In determining compensation, the directors consider industry standards and the Company's financial situation, but the Company does not have any formal objectives or criteria. The performance of each executive officer is informally monitored by the directors, having in mind the business strengths of the individual and the purpose of originally appointing the individual as an officer.

In establishing compensation for executive officers, the Board as a whole seeks to accomplish the following goals:

  • To recruit and subsequently retain highly qualified executive officers by competitive offering overall compensation;
  • To motivate executives to achieve important corporate and personal performance objectives and reward them when such objectives are met; and
  • To align the interests of executive officers with the long-term interests of shareholders through participation in the Company's Stock Option Plan.

When considering the appropriate executive compensation to be paid to our officers, the Board have regard to a number of factors including: (i) recruiting and retaining executives critical to the success of the Company and the enhancement of shareholder value; (ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; (iii) balancing the interests of management and the Company's shareholders; (iv) rewarding performance, both on an individual basis and with respect to operations generally; and (v) available financial resources.

The Board will consider executive bonus compensation dependent upon the Company meeting its strategic objectives and milestones and sufficient cash resources being available for the granting of bonuses.

Other than as disclosed, the only arrangements the Company had, standard or otherwise, pursuant to which the Company compensated directors for their services in their capacity as directors, or for committee participation, involvement in special assignments or for services as a consultant or expert during the most recently completed financial year or subsequently, are by (i) the issuance of incentive stock options; and (ii) reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Company.

Pension Disclosure

The Company currently does not provide pension plan benefits for NEOs, directors or employees.
