Dear Shareholder,
Notice of General Meeting
We are pleased to be writing to you with details of a general meeting (the "General Meeting") of Cloudbreak Discovery PLC (the "Company") which will be held on 21 April 2022 at 520 – 999 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 2W2 10 am (PST) 6pm (GMT).
Shareholders will be aware that the Company recently completed a successful fundraising and as announced on 30 March 2022, the Company has elected to drawdown a tranche of £750,000 of the £10m equity drawdown facility pursuant to the agreement (the "Equity Drawdown Agreement") dated 16 February 2021 (as varied on 30 March 2022) entered into between the Company and Crescita Capital LLC ("Crescita Capital") (the details of which are set out in paragraph 12 of Part 1 and paragraph 11.4 of Part VIII of the prospectus published by the Company on 12 May 2021).
The Directors believe that additional funds will enable the Company to accelerate the development of the business and, subject to market conditions and to refreshing our headroom to issue shares, the Directors shall seek to raise further equity capital in the coming months. The Company is therefore seeking shareholder authority in order to allot shares for such further capital raises.
The formal notice of the General Meeting (the "Notice") is set out on page 5 of this document.
Explanation of the Resolutions
Resolution 1 is proposed as an ordinary resolution. This means that for this resolution to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.
Resolution 2 is proposed as a special resolution. This means that for this resolution to be passed, at least three quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.
Resolution 1: Authority to allot
Under section 551 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "CA 2006"), the directors of the Company ("Directors") are prevented, subject to certain exceptions, from allotting equity securities without the authority of the shareholders in a general meeting.
This is an ordinary resolution granting general authority to the Directors to:
- (a) allot 38,771,694 ordinary shares of £0.001 in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") up to an aggregate nominal amount of £38,771.694 for the purposes of, or in connection with the exercise of rights pursuant to, the 24,121,694 outstanding and unexercised warrants previously issued by the Company and the 14,650,000 outstanding and unexercised options granted by the Company (together, the "Warrants and Options");
- (b) allot 269,600,000 Ordinary Shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £269,600 for the purposes of, or in connection with the allotment and issuance of equity securities of the Company to Crescita Capital pursuant to the Equity Drawdown Agreement; and
- (c) allot 395,492,332 Ordinary Shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £395,492.33, which is in addition to the authorities described in sub‐paragraphs (a) and (b) above,
with such authority to expire at the next annual general meeting of the Company after the passing of this Resolution.
Resolution 2: Disapplication of statutory pre‐emption rights
The CA 2006 requires that any equity securities issued for cash (other than pursuant to an employee share scheme) must first be offered to existing shareholders pro rata to their holdings unless approval is obtained by special resolution to disapply this requirement.
This is a special resolution granting Directors with a general authority to:
- (a) allot equity securities of the Company in connection with the exercise of rights pursuant to the Warrants and Options up to an aggregate nominal amount equal to £38,771.694, as if section 561 of the CA 2006 did not apply to any such allotment;
- (b) allot equity securities of the Company in connection with the Equity Drawdown Agreement up to an aggregate nominal amount equal to £269,600, as if section 561 of the CA 2006 did not apply to any such allotment; and
- (c) to allot equity securities of the Company, in addition to the authorities being sought under sub‐paragraphs (a) and (b), up to a nominal amount of equity securities of the Company equal to £395,492.332, as if section 561 of the CA 2006 did not apply to any such allotment.

You are requested to complete and return the Form of Proxy in accordance with the instructions thereon so as to arrive as soon as possible at the offices of the Company's registrar, Share Registrars Limited, no later than 6pm (GMT) on 19 April 2022.
