INFORMATION CIRCULAR

as at July 26, 2024 (except as otherwise indicated)

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Management of Datable Technology Corporation (the “Company”) for use at the annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of its shareholders to be held on September 6, 2024 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”, “Datable”, “we” and “our” refer to Datable Technology Corporation. “Common Shares” or “Shares” means common shares without par value in the capital of the Company. “Registered Shareholders” means shareholders who hold their Common Shares in their own name. “Beneficial Shareholders” means shareholders 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.

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.

The Company will pay intermediaries, including Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. (“Broadridge”), to deliver proxy-related materials to the non-objecting beneficial shareholders (the “NOBOs”). The Company does not intend to pay for intermediaries to forward the proxy related materials to the objecting beneficial shareholders (the “OBOs”). Accordingly, OBOs will not receive such documents unless their respective Intermediaries assume the cost of forwarding such documents to them.

Appointment of Proxyholder

The individuals named in the accompanying form of proxy (the “Proxy”) are an officer and/or director 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 electing to submit a Proxy may do so if they:

  • (a) complete, date and sign the Proxy and return it to the Company’s transfer agent, TSX Trust Company (“TSX Trust”), by fax at (416) 595-9593, or by mail to Suite 301, 100 Adelaide Street, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4H1; or

  • (b) log on to TSX Trust’s website at www.voteproxyonline.com. Registered shareholders must follow the instructions provided on the website and refer to the Proxy form enclosed with the notice package for the holder’s account number and the proxy access number and the control number.

Regardless of the method a registered shareholder chooses to submit their Proxy, they must ensure that the Proxy is received by TSX Trust no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) on Wednesday, September 4, 2024, being at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the Meeting or the adjournment thereof.

Your Company’s Shares will be voted for or against or withheld from voting on each item listed on the Proxy in accordance with your instructions on your Proxy.

If you do not specify how you want to vote on any item listed on the Proxy, the directors or officers named in the Proxy will vote the Shares represented by the Proxy FOR the approval of that item.

If you choose to appoint someone other than the directors or officers named in the Proxy to vote on your behalf at the Meeting, he or she will vote your Shares in accordance with your instructions. On items for which you do not specify how you want to vote, your proxyholder will vote your Company Shares as he or she sees fit.

The Proxy also gives discretionary authority to the proxyholder, whether a director or officer of the Company or a person named by you, to vote your Shares as he or she sees fit on any other matter that may properly come before 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 (an “ 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 U.S. 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 owners - 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 directly deliver proxy-related materials to its NOBOs. As a result NOBOs can expect to receive a Voting Instruction Form (“ VIF ”) from our transfer agent, TSX Trust. These VIFs are to be completed and returned to TSX Trust in the envelope provided or by facsimile. In addition, TSX Trust provides internet voting as described on the VIF itself which contain complete instructions. TSX Trust 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 and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been 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

LEGAL_44475194.1

  • 3 -

return your voting instructions as specified in your request for voting instructions.

Beneficial Shareholders who are 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 now 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, you should 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 at the Meeting or to have an alternate representative duly appointed to attend the Meeting and to 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 Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “ BCBCA ”) and Canadian provincial securities laws. 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 Information Circular has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of applicable Canadian provincial securities laws which differ from the disclosure requirements of United States federal 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 BCBCA, 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 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 or its attorney authorized in writing may revoke a Proxy by an instrument in writing, including a proxy bearing a later date. The instrument revoking the Proxy must be deposited with TSX Trust within the time period and in the manner set out under the heading Appointment of Proxies above, or at the address of the registered office of the Company at 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 preceding the date of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, or with the chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting.

Only Registered Shareholders have the right to revoke a Proxy. A Beneficial Shareholder who wishes to change its vote must provide instructions in advance of the cut-off date specified by its Intermediary, so that the Intermediary can change the voting instructions on the Beneficial Shareholder’s behalf.

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

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

Except as otherwise disclosed in this Information Circular, particularly with respect to the amendment to the Company’s fixed share option plan and fixed restricted share option plan, and increases to maximum number of shares to both the Company’s fixed share option plan, as amended and the Company’s fixed restricted share unit plan, as amended, no director or executive officer of the Company, or 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, the appointment of auditor, to approve the adoption of the Company’s new Omnibus Incentive Plan and as may be set out herein.

Advance Notice Provision

At the Company’s annual general and special meeting held on June 15, 2015, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of new Company articles, which new Articles include advance notice provisions (the “ Advance Notice Provisions ”). The Advance Notice Provisions provide 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 Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (“BCA”) or (ii) a shareholder proposal made pursuant to the provisions of the BCA.

The purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions 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 Provisions fix 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

The foregoing is merely a summary of the Advance Notice Provisions, is not comprehensive and is qualified by the full text of such provisions which is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Acceleration of Vesting ................................ Acceleration of vesting is permitted if: (i) a
Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant under
the Omnibus Incentive Plan; (ii) the death of the
Participant; or (iii) in connection with a Change in
Control, take over bid, reverse-take-over or other
similar transaction.
Termination other than for cause or cessation Subject to the terms of the grant or as determined by
...................................................................... the Board, upon a Participant’s termination or
cessation without cause the number of Awards that
may vest is subject to pro-ration over the applicable
performance or vesting period and shall expire on the
earlier of 90 days after the effective date of
termination or the expiry date of the Awards.
Retirement ..................................................... Upon the retirement of a Participant’s employment
with the Company, any unvested Awards held by the
Participant as at the termination date will continue to
vest in accordance with the applicable vesting
schedule, and all vested Awards held by the
Participant at the termination date may be exercised
until the earlier of the expiry date of the Awards or six
(6) months following the termination date, provided
that if the Participant breaches any post-employment
restrictive covenants in favour of the Company
(including
non-competition
or
non-solicitation
covenants), then any Awards held by such Participant,
whether vested or unvested, will immediately expire
and the Participant shall pay to the Issuer any “in-the-
money” amounts realized upon exercise of Awards
following the termination date.
Death ............................................................. All unvested Awards will vest and may be exercised
within 180 days after death.
Change in Control ......................................... If the Company enters into an agreement relating to a
transaction which, if completed, would result in a
Change in Control, or otherwise become aware of a
pending Change in Control, the Board may, in its sole
discretion, change the Performance Criteria or
accelerate the vesting and/or the expiry date of any or
all
outstanding
Awards
to
provide
that,
notwithstanding the Performance Criteria and/or
vesting provisions of such Awards or any grant
agreement, such designated outstanding Awards shall
be fully performed and/or vested and conditionally
exercisable upon (or prior to) the completion of the
Change in Control, provided that the Board shall not,
in any case, authorize the exercise of Awards beyond
the expiry date of the Awards.

vesting and/or the expiry date of Awards, the Company shall make adequate provisions to ensure that, upon completion of the proposed Change in Control, the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards and/or the exercise price of Options shall be appropriately adjusted (including by substituting the Awards for Awards to acquire securities in any successor entity to the Company) in such manner as the Board considers equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to Participants. The Board may make changes to the terms of the Awards or the Omnibus Incentive Plan to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with any rules, regulations or policies of any stock exchange on which any securities of the Company may be listed, provided that the value of previously granted Awards and the rights of Participants are not materially adversely affected by any such changes.

In accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, it is subject to its acceptance for filing by the Exchange and approval by the Company’s shareholders. The Board may, subject to Exchange approval, discontinue the Omnibus Incentive Plan at any time without the consent of the Participants, provided that such discontinuance shall not materially and adversely affect any Awards previously granted to a Participant under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.

The Exchange requires listed companies that have “rolling” incentive plans in place (such as the Omnibus Incentive Plan) to receive shareholder approval to such plans on a yearly basis at the Company’s annual general meeting.

Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation

Executive compensation is set to attract and retain the best available talent while efficiently utilizing available resources. The Company compensates executive management with a package typically including a base salary (“ Base Salary ”), an incentive compensation plan (“Incentive Compensation”) and equity compensation (the “Equity Compensation”) designed to be competitive with comparable employers. In considering executive management’s compensation, the Board takes into consideration the financial condition of the Company. The Base Salary is set in comparison to the comparable positions in the market and in the industry, the Incentive Compensation is used as a short-term incentive to achieve Company objectives, and the Equity Compensation is designed to allow the participants to enjoy the benefits of any increase in company valuation and share price, should such an increase occur. Executive compensation is designed to reward activities and achievements that are aligned with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders.

The Base Salary, Incentive Compensation and Equity Compensation for the Company’s NEOs, including the CEO, the CFO and the CTO, is determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee sets the compensation of the NEOs using generally available market data and their combined industry experience. The Compensation Committee delegates to the NEOs the responsibility to set the compensation packages for all other senior management and staff.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for executive and director compensation, including reviewing and recommending director compensation, overseeing the Company’s base compensation structure and equity-based compensation program, recommending compensation of the Company’s officers and employees, and evaluating the performance of officers generally and in light of annual goals and objectives.

The Compensation Committee also assumes responsibility for reviewing and monitoring the long-range compensation strategy for the Company’s senior management. The compensation committee reviews the compensation of senior management on an annual basis taking into account compensation paid by other issuers of similar size and activity.

Philosophy and Objectives

The Company is a small company with limited resources. The compensation program for the senior management of the Company is designed within this context with a view that the level and form of compensation achieves certain objectives, including:

  • (a) attracting and retaining qualified executives;

  • (b) motivating the short and long-term performance of these executives; and

  • (c) better aligning their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

LEGAL_44475194.1

  • 22 -

In compensating its senior management, the Company has employed a combination of base salary and equity participation through its share option plan and restricted share unit plan. Recommendations for senior management compensation are presented to the Board for review.

Equity Participation

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 Company’s share option plan and restricted share unit plan. Stock options are granted and restricted share units are awarded to executives and employees taking into account a number of factors, including the amount and term of options previously granted, base salary and competitive factors. The amounts and terms of options granted and restricted share units awarded are determined by the Compensation Committee based on recommendations put forward by the CEO.

Base Salary or Consulting Fees

In the Board’s view, paying base salaries which are reasonable in relation to the level of service expected while remaining competitive in the markets in which the Company operates is a first step to attracting and retaining qualified and effective executives.

Base salary ranges for the executive officers were initially determined upon a review of companies within the technology industry, which were of the same size as the Company and considered comparable to the Company.

In determining the base salary of an executive officer, the Board considers the following factors:

  • (a) the particular responsibilities related to the position;

  • (b) salaries paid by other companies in the technology industry which were similar in size as the Company;

  • (c) the experience level of the executive officer;

  • (d) the amount of time and commitment which the executive officer devotes to the Company; and

  • (e) the executive officer’s overall performance and performance in relation to the achievement of corporate milestones and objectives.

Financial years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(3) The RSUs are structured so as to be considered, to the extent they are awarded to an Employee, to be rights to acquire securities of a qualifying person in respect of such Employee for purposes of Section 7 of the Tax Act or any successor to such provision.

(4) Subject to the vesting and other conditions and provisions set forth herein and in the applicable RSU Grant Agreement, the Board shall determine whether each RSU awarded to a Participant shall entitle the Participant:

  • (b) to receive the Cash Equivalent of one (1) Share; or

Section 4.4 Performance Criteria and Performance Period

(1) For each award of RSUs, the Board shall establish the period in which any Performance Criteria and other vesting conditions must be met in order for a Participant to be entitled to receive Shares in exchange for all or a portion of the RSUs held by such Participant (the “ Performance Period ”), provided that such Performance Period may not expire after the end of the Restriction Period, being a minimum of one (1) year from the date of award of the RSUs, and ending no longer than three (3) years after the calendar year in which the Award was granted. For example, a Performance Period determined by the Board to be for a period of three (3) financial years will start on the first day of the financial year in which the Award is granted and will end on the last day of the second financial year after the year in which the grant was made.

(2) For each award of RSUs, the Board shall establish any Performance Criteria and other vesting conditions which must be met during the Performance Period in order for a Participant to be entitled to receive Shares in exchange for his or her RSUs.

(3) For greater clarity, in the event the Corporation does not have a sufficient number of Shares available under this Plan to satisfy its obligations under this Section 4.4, the Corporation may make payment in cash to satisfy such obligations.

Section 4.5 Additional RSUs in Event of Dividends

Unless the Board determines otherwise, a Participant’s Account shall be credited with additional RSUs as of each dividend payment date in respect of which cash dividends are paid on Shares. The number of additional RSUs to be credited to a Participant’s Account shall be computed by dividing: (a) the dividends that would have been paid to such Participant if each RSU in the Participant’s Account on the relevant dividend record date had been one (1) Share, by (b) the Fair Market Value of the Shares determined as of the date of payment of such dividend. Any fractional RSUs resulting from such calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. For greater certainty, a fractional entitlement that is equal to or greater than 0.5 shall be shall be rounded up to the next greater whole number and a fractional entitlement that is less than 0.5 shall be rounded down to the next lesser whole number. Any such additional RSUs credited to the Participant’s Account shall vest in proportion to and shall be paid hereunder in the same manner as the RSUs to which they relate. The foregoing does not obligate the Corporation to pay dividends on Shares and nothing in this Plan shall be interpreted as creating such an obligation.

Any additional RSUs issued pursuant to this Error! Reference source not found. will be factored into the limits on grants to individuals and groups as set out in Section 2.4 of this Plan. The Corporation may settle such RSUs in cash where the issuance of Shares would result in a breach on the limits as set out in Section 2.4 of this Plan or where it does not have sufficient Shares available to satisfy the obligation in Shares.

Section 4.6 RSU Vesting Determination Date

The vesting determination date means the date on which the Board determines if the Performance Criteria and/or other vesting conditions with respect to a RSU have been met (the “ RSU Vesting Determination Date ”), and as a result, establishes the number of RSUs that become vested, if any. For greater certainty, the RSU Vesting Determination Date must fall after the end of the Performance Period, if any, but no later than the last day of the Restriction Period.

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 16 -

Unless otherwise specified in the RSU Grant Agreements, one-third (1/3) of RSUs awarded pursuant to an RSU Grant Agreement shall vest on each of the first (1[st] ) three (3) anniversaries of the date of grant, provided that no RSUs may vest prior to one year from the date of award of such RSU. At the discretion of the Board, acceleration of vesting is permitted in connection with the death of a Participant, in the event the holder of RSUs ceases to be an Eligible Participant under this Plan, or in connection with a Change in Control, Take-Over Bid, reverse-take-over or other similar transaction.

Section 4.7 Settlement of RSUs

(4) If, upon receipt by the Corporation of a RSU Settlement Notice pursuant to the terms hereof, the Corporation does not have a sufficient number of Shares reserved and available for issuance under this Plan, the Corporation will make payment of a cash amount to a Participant for a value equal to the number of RSUs multiplied by the Market Value, subject to any applicable deductions and withholdings, in lieu of issuing Shares.

(5) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in the event that a RSU Settlement Date falls during a Black-Out Period or other trading restriction imposed by the Corporation and the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Participant receives Shares in satisfaction of an Award during a Black-Out Period, the Corporation shall advise such Participant of the same in writing and such Participant shall not be entitled to sell or otherwise dispose of such Shares until such Black-Out Period has expired.

Section 4.8 Determination of Amounts

(1) Cash Equivalent of RSUs . For purposes of determining the Cash Equivalent of RSUs to be made pursuant to Section 4.7, such calculation will be made on the RSU Settlement Date and shall equal the Market Value on the RSU Settlement Date multiplied by the number of vested RSUs in the Participant’s Account which the Participant desires to settle in cash pursuant to the RSU Settlement Notice.

(2) Payment in Shares; Issuance of Shares from Treasury . For the purposes of determining the number of Shares from treasury to be issued and delivered to a Participant upon settlement of RSUs pursuant to Section 4.7, such calculation will be made on the RSU Settlement Date and be the whole number of Shares equal to the whole number of vested RSUs then recorded in the Participant’s Account which the Participant desires to settle pursuant to the RSU Settlement Notice. Shares issued from treasury will be issued in consideration for the past services of the Participant to the Corporation and the entitlement of the Participant under this Plan shall be satisfied in full by such issuance of Shares.

Section 4.9 RSU Grant Agreements

RSUs shall be evidenced by an RSU Grant Agreement substantially in the form attached as Schedule C (or in such other form as determined by the Corporation). The RSU Grant Agreement shall contain such terms that may be considered necessary in order that the RSU will comply with any provisions respecting restricted share units in the income tax or other laws in force in any country or jurisdiction of which the Participant may from time to time be a resident or citizen or the rules of any regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Corporation.

Neither the Participant nor such Participant’s personal representatives or legatees shall have any rights whatsoever as shareholder in respect of any Shares covered by such Participant’s Awards until the date of issuance of a Share certificate to such Participant (or to the liquidator, executor or administrator, as the case may be, of the estate of the

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 18 -

Participant) or the entry of such Person’s name on the Share register for the Shares. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such Share certificate is issued or entry of such Person’s name on the Share register for the Shares.

(3) Conformity to Plan . In the event that an Award is granted or a Grant Agreement is executed which does not conform in all particulars with the provisions of the Plan, or purports to grant Awards on terms different from those set out in the Plan, the Award or the grant of such Award shall not be in any way void or invalidated, but the Award so granted will be adjusted to become, in all respects, in conformity with the Plan.

(4) Non-Assignable and Non-Transferable . All Awards are exercisable only by the Participant to whom they were awarded and will not be assignable or transferable. Awards may be exercised only by:

  • (a) the Participant to whom the Awards were granted;

  • (b) upon the Participant’s death, the legal representative of the Participant’s estate; or

  • (c) upon the Participant’s incapacity, the legal representative having authority to deal with the property of the Participant,

provided that any such legal representative in (b) or (c) shall first deliver evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of legal representation and the right to exercise an Award.

(5) Cease to be an Eligible Participant . Notwithstanding this Section 5.1, any Award granted or issued to a Participant who is a Director, Officer, Employee, Consultant or Management Company Employee must expire within a reasonable period, not exceeding twelve (12) months, following the date such Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant under this Plan.

(6) Termination for Cause . Upon a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant for Cause, all unexercised vested and unvested Awards granted to such Participant shall terminate on the effective date of the termination as specified in the notice of termination.

(7) Retirement . In the case of a Participant’s retirement, any unvested Awards held by the Participant as at the Termination Date will continue to vest in accordance with their vesting schedules, and all vested Awards held by the Participant at the Termination Date may be exercised until the earlier of the Expiry Date of the Awards or six (6) months following the Termination Date, provided that if the Participant is determined to have breached any post-employment restrictive covenants in favour of the Corporation, then any Awards held by the Participant, whether vested or unvested, will immediately expire and the Participant shall pay to the Corporation any “in-the-money” amounts realized upon exercise of Awards following the Termination Date. For further clarity, all unvested Awards as at the earlier of the Expiry Date of the Awards or six (6) months following the Termination Date, will be forfeited and cancelled without payment and shall be of no further force or effect from and after such date.

(8) Resignation . In the case of a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant due to such Participant’s resignation, subject to any later expiration dates determined by the Board, all Awards shall expire on the earlier of ninety (90) days after the effective date of such resignation, or the Expiry Date of the Award, to the extent such Awards were vested and exercisable by the

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 19 -

Participant on the effective date of such resignation and all unexercised unvested Awards granted to such Participant shall terminate on the effective date of such resignation. For further clarity, any later expiration date determined by the Board must not exceed a twelve (12) month period commencing on the date of the Participant’s resignation.

(9) Termination or Cessation . In the case of a Participant ceasing to be an Eligible Participant for any reason (other than for “cause”, resignation or death), the number of unvested Awards that may vest is subject to proration over the applicable vesting or Performance Period and shall expire on the earlier of ninety (90) days after the effective date of the Termination Date, or the Expiry Date of the Awards. For greater certainty, the proration calculation referred to above shall be net of previously vested Awards.

(10) Death . If a Participant dies while in his or her capacity as an Eligible Participant, all unvested Awards will immediately vest and all Awards will expire one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the death of such Participant. If a Participant’s heirs or administrators are entitled to any portion of the Participant’s outstanding Awards, the period in which they shall be entitled to make a claim in respect of such RSUs may not exceed one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the death of such Participant.

Section 5.2 Unfunded Plan

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, this Plan shall be unfunded. To the extent any Participant or his or her estate holds any rights by virtue of a grant of Awards under this Plan, such rights (unless otherwise determined by the Board) shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured creditor of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any determinations made shall be such that the Plan continuously meets the requirements of paragraph 6801(d) of the Income Tax Regulations, adopted under the Tax Act or any successor provision thereto.

Section 5.3 Hold Period

  • (1) An Exchange Hold Period will be applied from the date of grant for all Awards granted to:

  • (a) Insiders or Consultants; or

  • (b) where Options are granted to any Participants, including Insiders or Consultants, where the Exercise Price is at a discount to the Market Price.

(2) Pursuant to TSXV Policies, where the Exchange Hold Period is applicable, the certificate or written notice, as applicable, that is issued to a Participant upon the exercise of the Awards, will include a legend stipulating that such Shares issued are subject to a four-month Exchange Hold Period commencing the effective date of the grant of the Award.

ARTICLE 6 – ADJUSTMENTS AND AMENDMENTS

Section 6.1 Adjustment to Shares Subject to Outstanding Awards

(1) In the event of any subdivision of the Shares into a greater number of Shares at any time after the grant of an Award to a Participant and prior to the expiration of the term of such Award, the Corporation shall deliver to such Participant, at the time of any subsequent exercise or vesting of such Award in accordance with the terms hereof, in lieu of the number of Shares to which such

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 20 -

Participant was theretofore entitled upon such exercise or vesting of such Award, but for the same aggregate consideration payable therefor, such number of Shares as such Participant would have held as a result of such subdivision if, on the record date thereof, the Participant had been the registered holder of the number of Shares to which such Participant was theretofore entitled upon such exercise or vesting of such Award.

(2) In the event of any consolidation of Shares into a lesser number of Shares at any time after the grant of an Award to any Participant and prior to the expiration of the term of such Award, the Corporation shall deliver to such Participant at the time of any subsequent exercise or vesting of such Award in accordance with the terms hereof, in lieu of the number of Shares to which such Participant was theretofore entitled upon such exercise or vesting of such Award, but for the same aggregate consideration payable therefor, such number of Shares as such Participant would have held as a result of such consideration if, on the record date thereof, the Participant had been the registered holder of the number of Shares to which such Participant was theretofore entitled upon such exercise or vesting of such Award.

(3) If, at any time after the grant of an Award to any Participant, and prior to the expiration of the term of such Award, the Shares shall be reclassified, reorganized or otherwise changed, otherwise than as specified in Section 6.1(1) or Section 6.1(2) hereof or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(3) hereof, the Corporation shall consolidate, merge, reorganize or amalgamate with or into another corporation (the corporation resulting or continuing from such consolidation, merger, reorganization, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, spin-off, dividend payment or recapitalization, being herein called the “ Successor Corporation ”), the Participant shall be entitled to receive, upon the subsequent exercise or vesting of Award, in accordance with the terms hereof and shall accept in lieu of the number of Shares then subscribed for but for the same aggregate consideration payable therefor, the aggregate number of Shares of the appropriate class or other securities of the Corporation or the Successor Corporation (as the case may be) or other consideration from the Corporation or the Successor Corporation (as the case may be) that such Participant would have been entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification, reorganization or other change of Shares or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2(3) hereof, as a result of such consolidation, merger, reorganization, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, spin-off, dividend payment or recapitalization, if on the record date of such reclassification, reorganization or other change of Shares or the effective date of such consolidation, merger reorganization, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, spin-off, dividend payment or recapitalization, as the case may be, such Participant had been the registered holder of the number of Shares to which such Participant was immediately theretofore entitled upon such exercise or vesting of such Award. Provided that all adjustments made to the aggregate number of Shares of the appropriate class or other securities of the Corporation or the Successor Corporation (as the case may be) or other consideration from the Corporation or the Successor Corporation (as the case may be) that such Participant would have been entitled to receive as a result of such reclassification, reorganization or other change of Shares or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2(3) hereof, as a result of such consolidation, merger, reorganization, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, spin-off, dividend payment or recapitalization, shall be subject to the prior acceptance of the Exchange.

(4) If, at any time after the grant of an Award to any Participant and prior to the expiration of the term of such Award, the Corporation shall make a distribution to all holders of Shares or other securities in the capital of the Corporation, or cash, evidences of indebtedness or other assets of the Corporation (excluding an ordinary course dividend in cash or Shares, but including, for greater certainty, Shares or equity interests in a Subsidiary or business unit of the Corporation or one of

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 21 -

its Subsidiaries or cash proceeds of the disposition of such a Subsidiary or business unit), or should the Corporation effect any transaction or change having a similar effect, then the price or the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled upon exercise or vesting of Award shall be adjusted to take into account such distribution, transaction or change. The Board shall determine the appropriate adjustments to be made in such circumstances in order to maintain the Participants’ economic rights in respect of their Awards in connection with such distribution, transaction or change.

(5) For greater clarity, any adjustment, other than in connection with a security consolidation or security split, to Awards granted or issued under this Plan must be subject to the prior acceptance of the Exchange, including but not limited to adjustments related to an amalgamation, merger, arrangement, reorganization, spin-off, dividend or recapitalization.

Section 6.2 Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan

(1) The Board may amend the Plan or any Award at any time subject to Shareholder Approval as a condition to Exchange acceptance of the amendment. For greater certainty, without limitation, amendments to any of the following provisions of this Plan will be subject to Shareholder Approval, in particular amendments:

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 22 -

  • (g) any amendment to the amendment provisions of the Plan, provided that Shares held directly or indirectly by Insiders benefiting from the amendments in Section 6.2(2)(b) and Section 6.2(2)(c) shall be excluded when obtaining such Shareholder Approval.

(4) The Board may, subject to Regulatory Approval, discontinue the Plan at any time without the consent of the Participants, provided that such discontinuance shall not materially and adversely affect any Awards previously granted to a Participant under the Plan.

(5) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, at all times when the Corporation is listed on the TSXV:

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 23 -

  • (a) the Corporation shall be required to obtain prior TSXV acceptance of any amendment to this Plan; and

  • (b) the Corporation shall be required to obtain Disinterested Shareholder Approval in compliance with the applicable TSXV Policies for this Plan if the Plan, together with all of the Corporation’s Security Based Compensation Plans, could permit at any time: (1) the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under Awards granted to any one Person in any twelve (12) month period exceeding 5% of the Outstanding Issue, calculated on the date of such grant; (2) the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under Awards granted to Insiders (as a group) at any point in time exceeding 10% of the Outstanding Issue; and (3) the grant to Insiders (as a group), within a 12 month period, of an aggregate number of Awards exceeding 10% of the issued Shares, calculated at the date an Award is granted to any Insider.

Section 6.3 Change in Control

All provisions herein this Section 6.3 shall be subject to the prior acceptance of the Exchange, if required.

(1) Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan or any Grant Agreement, the Board has the right to provide for the conversion or exchange of any outstanding Awards into or for options, rights, units or other securities of substantially equivalent (or greater) value in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change in Control.

(2) Upon the Corporation entering into an agreement relating to a transaction which, if completed, would result in a Change in Control, or otherwise becoming aware of a pending Change in Control, the Corporation shall give written notice of the proposed Change in Control to the Participants, together with a description of the effect of such Change in Control on outstanding Awards, not less than seven (7) days prior to the closing of the transaction resulting in the Change in Control.

(3) The Board may, in its sole discretion, change the Performance Criteria or accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of any or all outstanding Awards to provide that, notwithstanding the Performance Criteria and/or vesting provisions of such Awards or any Grant Agreement, such designated outstanding Awards shall be fully performed and/or vested and conditionally exercisable upon (or prior to) the completion of the Change in Control, provided that the Board shall not, in any case, authorize the exercise of Awards pursuant to this Section 6.3(3) beyond the Expiry Date of the Awards. If the Board elects to change the Performance Criteria or accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of the Awards, then if any of such Awards are not exercised within seven (7) days after the Participants are given the notice contemplated in Section 6.3(2) (or such later Expiry Date as the Board may prescribe), such unexercised Awards shall, unless the Board otherwise determines, terminate and expire following the completion of the proposed Change in Control. If, for any reason, the Change in Control does not occur within the contemplated time period, the satisfaction of the Performance Criteria, the acceleration of the vesting and the Expiry Date of the Awards shall be retracted and vesting shall instead revert to the manner provided in the Grant Agreement.

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 24 -

(4) To the extent that the Change in Control would also result in a capital reorganization, arrangement, amalgamation or reclassification of the Share capital of the Corporation and the Board does not change the Performance Criteria or accelerate the vesting and/or the Expiry Date of Awards pursuant to Section 6.3(3), the Corporation shall make adequate provisions to ensure that, upon completion of the proposed Change in Control, the number and kind of Shares subject to outstanding Awards and/or the Option Price per Share of Options shall be appropriately adjusted (including by substituting the Awards for Awards to acquire securities in any successor entity to the Corporation) in such manner as the Board considers equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to Participants. The Board may make changes to the terms of the Awards or the Plan to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with any rules, regulations or policies of any stock exchange on which any securities of the Corporation may be listed, provided that the value of previously granted Awards and the rights of Participants are not materially adversely affected by any such changes.

(5) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in the event of a potential Change in Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to modify the terms of this Plan and/or the Awards (including, for greater certainty, to cause the vesting of all unvested Awards) to assist the Participants to tender into a Take-Over Bid or other transaction leading to a Change in Control. For greater certainty, in the event of a Take-Over Bid or other transaction leading to a Change in Control, the Board shall have the power, in its sole discretion, to permit Participants to conditionally exercise their Awards, such conditional exercise to be conditional upon the take-up by such offeror of the Shares or other securities tendered to such Take-Over Bid in accordance with the terms of such Take-Over Bid (or the effectiveness of such other transaction leading to a Change in Control). If, however, the potential Change in Control referred to in this Section 6.3(5) is not completed within the time specified therein (as the same may be extended), then notwithstanding this Section 6.3(5) or the definition of “Change in Control”: (i) any conditional exercise of vested Awards shall be deemed to be null, void and of no effect, and such conditionally exercised Awards shall for all purposes be deemed not to have been exercised, (ii) Shares which were issued pursuant to the exercise of Awards which vested pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall be returned by the Participant to the Corporation and reinstated as authorized but unissued Shares, and (iii) the original terms applicable to Awards which vested pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall be reinstated.

ARTICLE 7 – MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.1 Use of an Administrative Agent and Trustee

The Board may in its sole discretion appoint from time to time one or more entities to act as administrative agent to administer the Awards granted under the Plan and to act as trustee to hold and administer the assets that may be held in respect of Awards granted under the Plan, the whole in accordance with the terms and conditions determined by the Board in its sole discretion. The Corporation and the administrative agent will maintain records showing the number of Awards granted to each Participant under the Plan.

Section 7.2 Tax Withholding

(1) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Plan, the Company may, from time to time, implement such procedures and conditions as it determines appropriate with respect to the withholding and remittance of taxes imposed under applicable law in respect of the exercise of

LEGAL_44319176.1

  • 25 -

Options or settlement of RSUs granted or awarded under this Plan, or the funding of related amounts for which liability may arise under such applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Participant who wishes to exercise an Option or settle an RSU must, in addition to following the procedures set out elsewhere in this Plan, and as a condition of exercise or settlement, as applicable:

  • (a) deliver a certified cheque, wire transfer or bank draft payable to the Corporation for the amount determined by the Company to be the appropriate amount on account of such taxes or related amounts; or

  • (b) otherwise ensure, in a manner acceptable to the Corporation (if at all) in its sole and unfettered discretion, that the amount will be securely funded;

and must in all other respects follow any related procedures and conditions imposed by the Corporation.

(2) The Corporation shall not be responsible for any tax consequences to a Participant as a result of such Participant’s participation in this Plan.

(3) Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this Section 7.2, the applicable tax withholdings may be waived where the Participant directs in writing that a payment be made directly to the Participant’s registered retirement savings plan in circumstances to which regulation 100(3) of the regulations of the Tax Act apply.

Section 7.3 Reorganization of the Corporation

The existence of any Awards shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Corporation or its shareholders to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Corporation’s capital structure or its business, or any amalgamation, combination, merger or consolidation involving the Corporation or to create or issue any bonds, debentures, Shares or other securities of the Corporation or the rights and conditions attaching thereto or to affect the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar nature or otherwise.

Section 7.4 No Representation or Warranty

The Corporation makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of this Plan or to the effect of the Tax Act or any other taxing statute governing the Options or the Shares issuable thereunder or the tax consequences to a Participant. Compliance with applicable securities laws as to the disclosure and resale obligations of each Participant is the responsibility of each Participant and not the Corporation.

Section 7.5 Governing Laws

The Plan and all matters to which reference is made herein shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
