NOTICE AND ACCESS

In accordance with the recently adopted Notice and Access rules adopted by the Ontario Securities Commission under NI 54-101, the Corporation has sent its proxy-related materials (“Proxy Material”) to shareholders using the Notice and Access method. Therefore, although shareholders still receive the Voting Forms in paper copy, this Information Circular, the Notice of Meeting, the Annual Report (containing the annual financial statements and related MD&A) are not physically delivered. Instead, shareholders may access or download the Proxy Materials from https://docs.tsxtrust.com/2094 or may also access them from SEDAR at www.sedar.com under the Corporation’s filed documents. The Corporation believes that that this delivery method will expedite the receipt of Proxy Material by shareholders, reduce its printing and mailing expenses and reduces the environmental impact of disposing of the Proxy Material after it is no longer useful. Stratification will not be utilized and the Company will be paying the cost of delivery to Objecting Beneficial Owners.

Registered holders or beneficial owners may request paper copies of the Notice and Information Circular booklet be sent to them by postal delivery at no cost to them. Requests may be made up to one year from the date the Proxy Materials are posted on the Corporation’s and TSX Trust Company’s website. In order to receive a paper copy of the meeting materials, please call toll free at 1-866-393-4891 . If you have questions concerning Notice and Access, please call the Corporation’s registrar and transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, at 1-866-393-4891.

Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are officers and/or directors of the Corporation. A Shareholder has the right to appoint some other person (who need not be a Shareholder) to represent such Shareholder at the Meeting other than the persons designated in the accompanying form of proxy. To exercise this right, a Shareholder should insert the name of the desired person in the blank space provided in the form of proxy or should complete another form of proxy. A form of proxy

6

will not be valid unless it is deposited at the offices of TSX Trust Company, Suite 301, 100 Adelaide St West., Toronto, Ontario, M5H 4H1, not less than forty-eight (48) hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof or delivered to the Chairman of the meeting immediately prior to the commencement of the meeting, or any adjournment thereof, 9:30 AM on the 26[th] of January, 2022. A failure to deposit the form of proxy shall result in its invalidation.

Pursuant to Section 110(4) of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), a Shareholder who has submitted a form of proxy may revoke it by instrument in writing signed by the Shareholder, or by an authorized attorney, or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer, and deposited either at the registered office of the Corporation at 45A West Wilmot Street Unit 3 Richmond Hill Ontario L4B 2P2 at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, at which the form of proxy is to be used, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of such Meeting or adjournment thereof, or in any other manner permitted by law. In addition, a form of proxy may be revoked by the Shareholder personally attending at the Meeting and voting the securities represented thereby or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, by an authorized representative attending at the Meeting and voting such securities.

Exercise of Discretion by Proxies

The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy will vote the shares in respect of which they are appointed in accordance with the direction of the Shareholder appointing them (for, withhold from voting, or vote against) on any matter as may properly come before the Meeting. In the absence of such direction, such shares will be voted in favour of: (i) the approval of the Corporation’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019; (ii) the election of directors of the Corporation, being all of the persons listed under the heading “Election of Directors”; (iii) the appointment of auditors of the Corporation for the ensuing year; (iv) the re-approval of the Corporation’s stock option plan; (v) the re-approval of the Corporations’ shareholder rights plan. The accompanying form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, Management of the Corporation knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting other than the matters referred to in the Notice of Meeting.

Signature of Proxy

The form of proxy shall be executed by the Shareholder or by a duly appointed attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer whose title should be indicated. A form of proxy signed by a person acting as attorney or in some other representative capacity should reflect that person’s capacity following the signature and should be accompanied by the appropriate instrument evidencing qualification and authority to act (unless such instrument has been previously filed with the Corporation).

ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many shareholders, as a substantial number of shareholders do not hold iSign Media Solutions Inc. common shares (“Common Shares”) in their own name. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through their brokers, intermediaries, trustees or other persons, or who otherwise do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (referred to in this Circular as “ Beneficial Shareholders ”) should note that only proxies deposited by shareholders who appear on the records maintained by the Corporation's registrar and transfer agent as registered holders of common shares will be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If common shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by a broker, those common shares will, in all likelihood, not be registered in the shareholder's name. Such common shares will more likely be registered under the name of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that

7

broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depositary for Securities, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).

Common Shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker’s client can only be voted (for, withhold or against resolutions) at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares on behalf of the broker’s clients. Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Applicable regulatory policy requires brokers and other intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings. The various brokers and other intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The voting instruction form supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is substantially similar to the form of proxy provided directly to registered shareholders by the Corporation. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered Shareholder (i.e., the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The vast majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc. (“Broadridge”). Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the Internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder who receives a Broadridge voting instruction form or equivalent form cannot use that form to vote common shares directly at the Meeting. The voting instruction forms must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares must otherwise be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. If you have any questions respecting the voting of Common Shares held through a broker or other intermediary, please contact that broker or other intermediary for assistance.

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his broker, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder (i.e. their broker or their broker’s nominee) should enter their own names in the blank space on the voting instruction form provided to them and ensure they receive a proxy from their broker and deal with the Proxy in the manner described under “Appointment and Revocation of Proxies”.

Only registered shareholders, or the persons they appoint as their proxies, are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Copies of the Corporation’s Notice of Meeting, this Management Information Circular and the Form of Proxy are being sent to both registered and non-registered shareholders. If you are a nonregistered shareholder, and the Corporation or its transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, has sent these materials directly to you, your name, address and information about your shareholdings, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf. By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Corporation (and not the intermediary) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions.

8

If you have received the form of proxy, you may return it directly to TSX Trust Company by regular mail or by fax at 416-595-9593.

All references to shareholders in this Circular and the accompanying form of proxy and Notice of Meeting are to registered shareholders unless specifically stated otherwise.

RECORD DATE

The Directors of the Corporation have set December 17[th] , 2021 as the record date for the Meeting. Only Shareholders of record as at that date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. However, the Corporation’s by laws provide that if after that date a Shareholder of record transfers his, her, or its shares and the transferee, upon producing properly endorsed certificates evidencing such shares or otherwise establishing ownership of such shares, requests not later than ten days prior to the Meeting that the transferee’s name be included in the list of Shareholders entitled to vote, in which case, such transferee is entitled to vote such shares at the Meeting.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS

As of December 15, 2021, there were 182,276,573 Common Shares of the Corporation issued and outstanding. Each share carries the right to one vote.

Shareholders who wish to receive Interim Financial Statements are encouraged to send the notice that was mailed with the proxy material to the Corporation or its Transfer Agent.

as directors, of the persons named below. Management of the Corporation does not contemplate that any of the nominees will be unable to serve as a director but, if this should occur for any reason prior to the Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy reserve the right to vote for another

9

nominee at their discretion in the absence of a direction to the contrary. Each director elected will hold office until the next annual general meeting or until his successor is duly elected, unless his office is earlier vacated.

APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

It is proposed that McGovern Hurley LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, of Toronto, Ontario, be reappointed as the Corporation’s auditors, and that the directors be authorized to fix their remuneration.

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the appointment of McGovern Hurley LLP. as auditors of the Corporation, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and to authorize the directors to fix their remuneration, unless otherwise instructed.

RE-APPROVAL OF STOCK OPTION PLAN

Pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) the Corporation is permitted to maintain a “rolling” stock option plan, reserving a maximum of 10% of the issued shares of the Corporation at the time of grant. As of the date hereof, 182,276,573 common shares of the Corporation are issued and outstanding. The current stock option plan of the Corporation as approved in January 2019 (the “Plan”) has a resulting maximum of 18,227,657 Common Shares reserved for issuance. No stock options may be granted under the Plan unless such grant would represent in the aggregate with all other outstanding options at the time of grant, no more than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares at the time of grant. Currently, the Corporation has 3,300,000 options outstanding.

The Corporation’s stock option plan also incorporates certain provisions prescribed by TSX-V Policy 4.4, that (i) impose a limit of 5% on the number of options that may be granted to a Plan participant that is a director, officer or employee of the Corporation, a limit of 2% on the number of options that may be granted to a consultant or investor relations professional; (ii) accelerate the expiry of options of those Plan participants that cease to be qualified participants under the Plan; (iii) detail those instances where a proposed amendment to the terms of an outstanding option requires disinterested shareholder approval.

If any Participant who is a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Corporation or an affiliate shall cease to be a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Corporation or an affiliate for any reason other than death or permanent disability, his Option will terminate at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the earlier of the date of the expiration of the Option Period and ninety (90) days after the date such Participant ceases to be a director, officer, employee or consultant of the Corporation or any affiliate. If any Participant who is a consultant engaged in investor relations activities for the Corporation or an affiliate and ceases to be a consultant engaged in investor relations activities for the Corporation or an affiliate for any reason other than death or permanent disability, his Option will terminate at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the earlier of the date of the expiration of the Option Period and thirty (30) days after the date such Participant ceases to be a consultant engaged in investor relations activities for the Corporation or an affiliate.

12

In the event of death or permanent disability of a Plan participant, any Option previously granted to him shall be exercisable until the end of the Option Period or until the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date of death or permanent disability of such participant, whichever is earlier.

A copy of the Plan is attached as Appendix I to this Circular. Management of the Corporation is recommending re-approval of the Plan and will propose the following resolution at the meeting:

BE IT RESOLVED that:

Pursuant to Policy 4.4, s. 2.9(b) of the TSX Venture Exchange, the existing Stock Option Plan (“Plan” as last approved by the Shareholders in January 2019), be re-approved without amendment, until the next Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders, which Plan provides, among other things, that the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, or any other Plan of the Corporation, shall not exceed ten per cent (10%) of the total number of issued and outstanding Shares at the time of the grant calculated on a rolling, non-diluted basis.”

The persons named in the accompanying proxy (provided the same is duly executed in their favour and is duly deposited) intend to vote FOR the approval of the resolution described above, unless otherwise instructed.

To be approved this resolution requires the support from the holders of over 50% of the shares represented at the meeting in person or by proxy.

RE-APPROVAL OF SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider and, if thought advisable, pass a resolution (the “Rights Plan Resolution”) to re-approve, ratify and confirm the adoption of the shareholder rights plan agreement (the “Rights Plan”) dated as of March 29, 2012 between the Corporation and TSX Trust Company (as it then was).

A summary of the key features of the Rights Plan is set forth in Appendix III to this Circular. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Rights Plan, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The Rights Plan is also available to any Shareholder on request from the Corporate Secretary. Shareholders wishing to receive a copy of the Rights Plan should contact Brandon Tigchelaar, the Corporate Secretary, at 416-306-1764, or by facsimile at 416-593-7760. All capitalized terms used in this section of the Circular and in the summary of Schedule “A” without express definition have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Rights Plan.

The Board of Directors has determined that the Rights Plan is in the best interests of the Corporation and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the Rights Plan. The Rights Plan was effective immediately upon approval by the Board on March 29, 2012, subject to receipt of all regulatory approvals which have subsequently been obtained conditional on the ratification of the Rights Plan by the Corporation’s Shareholders.

The primary objective of the Rights Plan is to (a) ensure, to the extent possible, that all holders of the Common Shares of the Corporation and the Board of Directors have adequate time to consider and evaluate any unsolicited bid for the Common Shares, (b) provide the Board of Directors with adequate time to identify, develop and negotiate value-enhancing alternatives, if considered appropriate, to any such unsolicited bid, (c) encourage the fair treatment of the Corporation's security holders in connection

13

DISCLOSURE OF THE CORPORATION’S GOVERNANCE

AND COMPENSATION PRACTICES

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Canadian National Instrument 51-102 requires disclosure of executive compensation and related matters under a revised Form 51-102F6 – Statement of Executive Compensation . The following section addresses the disclosure requirements of this form:

Compensation Objectives

An executive’s compensation is aligned with his or her responsibilities and ability to influence business results and varies with performance and level of responsibility. The Corporation believes that executive compensation should support an appropriate relationship between executive pay and creation of shareholder value. To this end, the Corporation believes that its executive compensation should:

  • a) Provide compensation to that paid by similar companies, thereby enabling the Corporation to attract and retain talented executives critical to the Corporation’s long-term success;

  • b) Motivate and retain key executives to achieve strategic corporate objectives by rewarding them for achieving such; and

15

  • c) Align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of shareholders through stock option awards, whose value over time depends upon the market value of the Corporation’s shares.

Elements of the Compensation Program

There are three elements to the Corporation’s executive compensation program:

  • Base salary;

  • Bonuses to reward annual performance; and

  • Stock options to provide long-term compensation incentives tied to increases in shareholder value.

The Corporation believes at-risk compensation (including bonuses and stock options) is important, as it aligns the financial interests of the executives with the financial interests of the shareholders of the Corporation. The executive compensation program is monitored by the Board of Directors.

Base Salary

The base salary for each executive officer is reviewed and established near the end of the fiscal year. Base salaries are established taking into consideration the executive officer’s personal performance and seniority, contribution to the growth and profitability of the Corporation, and comparability with industry norms.

Bonuses

Executives are provided with annual cash incentive bonuses based on the annual financial performance of the Corporation. In its discretion, the Corporation may also tie annual cash bonuses to the achievement of other financial and non-financial goals. If targets are not met, annual bonuses are not paid. No bonuses were paid in 2019 through 2021.

Stock Options

The Board of Directors approves the issuance of all stock options that are granted to executive officers, employees and consultants to provide long-term compensation incentives.

Interim Chief Executive Officer’s Compensation

Alex Romanov is to receive an annual fee of $72,000.

Chief Financial Officer’s Compensation

Bob MacBean is to receive an annual fee of $36,000.

While extensive benchmarking against industry peers has not been undertaken with respect to the compensation of either Mr. Romanov or Mr. MacBean, the directors believe the compensation fairly rewards their experience, leadership, creativity, and business acumen and iSIGN’s financial situation.

Compensation of Named Executive Officers

The Named Executive Officers of the Corporation includes the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, and the Corporation’s other most highly compensated executive officers who served as executive officer as at April 30, 2021, whose total annual salary and bonus exceeded $150,000.

The table below sets forth a summary of the compensation paid by the Corporation to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (the “Named Executive Officers”) for services rendered in all capacities to the Corporation in respect of the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 through 2021. There

16

were no other executives earning in excess of $150,000 during the years ended April 30, 2019 through 2021.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE

National Instrument 58-101 requires issuers to disclose the corporate governance practices that they have adopted. National Policy 58-201 provides guidance on corporate governance practices (“Guidelines”), which are not prescriptive, but are encouraged in the formulation of corporate governance practices.

The Board of Directors believes that sound corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all shareholders and believes that its practices in most respects are closely aligned to the Guidelines. This section sets out the Corporation’s approach to corporate governance and provides the disclosure requested by Form NI 58-101F2.

1. Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is responsible for the overall stewardship of the business and affairs of the Corporation, including overseeing the Corporation’s strategic planning and direction. The Board discharges its responsibilities directly and through committees.

The Board of Directors supervises Management by promoting frequent interaction, feedback and exchange of ideas. As well, Management provides the directors with reports from time to time outlining the financial position and status of development projects and any operational issues.

Directors are considered to be independent under NI 52-110 and 58-101F2 if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. A “material relationship” is a relationship that could, in the view of the Corporation’s Board of Directors, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment. Also, the receipt of any fees, other than for serving as a director, renders a director not independent.

The Board of Directors is currently comprised of four (4) directors. David Beck and Gregory Wade are the independent directors and have no material relationship with the Corporation.

Bob MacBean and Alex Romanov are not considered independent directors because Mr. Macbean is the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and Mr. Romanov is the Strategic Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer.

Where warranted, at their discretion directors are permitted to engage outside advisors at the Corporation’s expense to assist in the fulfillment of their duties.

Other Directorships in Public Companies

19

Mr. Bob MacBean is currently a director of Environmental Waste International Inc.

Mr. David Beck is currently a director of DGTL Inc.

2. Orientation and Continuing Education

The Board of Directors oversee the Corporation’s orientation process for newly elected members of the Board and assists the Board in the implementation of this program. As part of this orientation process, and depending on the new directors’ experience, each director meets with Management to review the business plan of the Corporation and is provided a copy of the Corporation’s TSX-V Filing Statement and current financial statements. The directors meet regularly to review interim financial statements and discuss the business of the Corporation and meet as required to consider material strategic infrastructures. The directors draw experience from their other public company experience.

3. Ethical Business Conduct

As part of the Corporation’s commitment to effective corporate governance, all directors, officers and employees of the Corporation must act in accordance with the Corporation’s Code of Conduct (the “Code”). The Code has been adopted by the Board of Directors and senior management and requires every officer, director and employee to observe high standards of business and personal ethics as they carry out their duties and responsibilities. The Code sets forth guidelines, policies and procedures which comprise the core compliance principles applicable to all employees, officers and directors of Corporation, and address ethical conduct, conflicts of interest and compliance with the law. The Code includes provisions for employees to communicate potential Code violations directly to specified independent Board Members. The Code is administered by the Audit Committee who oversee and monitor the Code, and report to the Board on the implementation and monitoring of the Code and all matters that arise related to its provisions, including any departures or waivers that are granted. All employees, officers and directors of Corporation must on an annual basis complete a certification confirming their compliance with the Code.

In addition, the Board of Directors has adopted a Whistleblowing Policy. The Whistleblowing Policy sets out responsibilities, policies and procedures in conjunction with any reports that are made pursuant to the Code, and also governs the reporting and investigation of allegations of suspected improper activities in respect of accounting, internal controls or auditing matters, violations of law and general violations of the Code. Multilateral Instrument 52-110 of the Canadian Securities Administrators (“MI 52-110”) requires that the Audit Committee ensure that there are procedures in place for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Corporation regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. The Audit Committee has approved the Whistleblowing Policy and the reporting mechanisms contained therein in order to fulfill its responsibilities.

4. Nomination of Directors

The Corporation does not have a stand-alone nominating committee. The Board of Directors is responsible for proposing new director nominees and for assessing directors.

The Board of Directors determines the criteria, objectives and procedures for selecting Board members. In this process, the directors consider factors such as independence, integrity, skills, expertise, breadth of experience, knowledge about the Corporation’s business and a willingness to devote adequate time and effort to the Board’s responsibilities.

5. Compensation of Directors

20

The current compensation of the directors was set on August 21[st] , 2015. A director fee of $4,000 per quarter was adopted.

6. Board and Committee Assessments

The Board of Directors coordinates an annual evaluation of the Board to determine whether they are functioning effectively and meeting their objectives and goals.

AUDIT COMMITTEE INFORMATION

The overall purpose of the Audit Committee is to support the Board in its stewardship function with respect to the integrity of the Corporation’s internal control systems and its financial reporting. It also ensures the independence of the Corporation’s auditors, oversees the work of the external auditor, and considers the results of their work in assessing the integrity of the Corporation’s financial reporting in order to provide shareholders and the general public with timely, appropriate and reliable information.

CHARTER OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

I. PURPOSE

The Audit Committee is a committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. The function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibilities to the shareholders of the Company, the securities regulatory authorities and stock exchanges, the investment community and others by:

(a) reviewing the annual and interim (quarterly) financial statements, related management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) and, where applicable, other financial information disclosed by the Company to any governmental body or the public, prior to its approval by the Board of Directors;

(e) monitoring the Company’s financial reporting process and internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related thereto.

The Audit Committee should primarily fulfill these responsibilities by carrying out the activities enumerated in Section III of this Charter. However, it is not the duty of the Audit Committee to prepare financial statements, to plan or conduct audits, to determine that the financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), to conduct investigations, or to assure compliance with laws and regulations or the Company’s internal policies, procedures and controls, as these are the responsibility of management and in certain cases the external auditor.

II. COMPOSITION

  2. Every Audit Committee member must be a director of the Company. The Audit Committee shall be comprised of such directors as are determined by the Board of Directors, a majority of whom shall be independent within the meaning of MI 52-110 of the Canadian Securities Administrators (or exempt there from), and free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment as a member of the Audit Committee. Pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) the majority of the Audit Committee members must not be officers, nor employees of the Company.

  3. All members of the Audit Committee must have (or should gain within a reasonable period of time after appointment) a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices and otherwise be financially literate within the meaning of applicable securities laws. Audit Committee members may

  3. The Secretary of the Audit Committee will be appointed by the Chair.

  4. Any member of the Audit Committee may be removed or replaced at any time by the Board of Directors and shall cease to be a member of the Audit Committee on ceasing to be a Director.

Appendix III

ISIGN MEDIA SOLUTIONS INC. SUMMARY OF SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

Summary of the Principal Term of the Rights Plan

The following is a summary of the principal terms of the Rights Plan, which summary is qualified by and is subject to the full terms and conditions of the Rights Plan, a copy of which is filed under the Corporation’s profile at www.sedar.com. Capitalized terms used in this summary are defined in the Rights Plan and, notwithstanding any summary of such terms herein, all such terms have the meanings ascribed to them in the Rights Plan.

Issuance of Rights

The Corporation issued one right (a “ Right ”) effective at 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on March 29, 2012 (the “ Record Time ”) in respect of each Common Shares outstanding at the Record Time and one Right in respect of each Common Share issued after the Record Time and prior to the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time.

Certificates

Certificates issued for Common Shares, including without limitation Common Shares issued upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, after the Record Time but prior to the close of business on the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time shall evidence one Right for each Common Share represented thereby and shall have impressed on, printed on, written on or otherwise affixed to them a legend. Certificates representing Common Shares that are issued and outstanding as at the Record Time shall evidence one Right for each Common Share evidenced thereby notwithstanding the absence of the foregoing legend until the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time. Registered holders of Common Shares who have not received a share certificate and are entitled to do so on the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time shall be entitled to Rights as if such certificates had been issued and such Rights shall for all purposes hereof be evidenced by the corresponding entries on the Corporation's securities registers for the Common Shares.

Exercise of Rights

Rights are not exercisable before the Separation Time. On any Business Day after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, each Right entitles the Holder to purchase for the Exercise Price, one Common Share. From and after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, the Rights shall be exercisable and the registration and transfer of the Rights shall be separate from and independent of the Common Shares.

Acquiring Person

An Acquiring Person is a person that Beneficially Owns 20% or more of the outstanding Voting Shares. An Acquiring Person does not, however, include the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation, or any person that becomes the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the Voting Shares as a result of certain exempt transactions.

6

Beneficial Owner/ Beneficial Ownership / Beneficially Own

At any given date a person is deemed the “ Beneficial Owner ” of, and to have “ Beneficial Ownership ” of, and to “ Beneficially Own ” any securities as to which such Person or any of such Person's Affiliates or Associates is the owner at law or in equity, and any securities of the Corporation of which such person or any of such person’s Affiliates or Associates has the rights to acquire or become the owner at law or in equity, whether such right is exercisable immediately or after the passage of time and whether or not on condition or the happening of any contingency or the making of any payment, upon the exercise of any conversion right, exchange right or purchase right attaching to convertible securities, or pursuant to any agreement, arrangement, pledge or understanding. However, under the Rights Plan a person is deemed not to have Beneficial Ownership of securities in certain enumerated circumstances.

Separation Time

The Separation Time will generally occur at the close of business on the tenth Trading Day after the earliest of:

(a) the Stock Acquisition Date;

(b) the date of the commencement of, or first public announcement of the intent of any Person (other than the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation) to make, a Take-over Bid (other than a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid); and

(c) the date upon which a Permitted Bid or Competing Permitted Bid ceases to be such;

(d) such later date as determined by Board of Directors acting in good faith.

However, if a take-over bid expires, is cancelled or is withdrawn prior to the Separation Time, or the Board of Directors waives the application of the Rights Plan to a Flip-in Event in accordance with the terms of the Rights Plan, then the Separation Time will be deemed not to have occurred.

Expiration Time

The Expiration Time shall mean the earlier of:

  • (a) the time at which the right to exercise Right is terminated under the terms of the Rights Plan;

  • (b) the termination of the third annual meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation occurring after the date of ratification of this Right Plan if the continuation of the Rights Plan is not submitted to holders of Voting Shares for their approval at such meeting or, if so submitted, is not approved by a majority of the votes cast by Independent Shareholders present or represented by proxy; and

  • (c) the close of the third annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation occurring after the date of approval of the continuation of the Rights Plan pursuant to paragraph (b) above or this paragraph (c) if the continuation of the Rights Plan is not submitted to holders of Voting Shares for their approval at such meeting or, if so submitted, is not approved by a majority of the votes cast by Independent Shareholders present or represented by proxy.

Flip-in Event

A Flip-in Event means a transaction in or pursuant to which any Person becomes an Acquiring person.

7

Permitted Bids and Competing Permitted Bids

The Rights Plan is not triggered if an offer (a “ Permitted Bid ”) would allow sufficient time for the Corporation’s Shareholders to consider and react to the offer and would allow the Corporation’s Shareholders to decide to tender or not tender without the concern that they will be left with illiquid Voting Shares should they not tender.

The requirements for a Permitted Bid include the following:

  • (1) the take-over bid must be made by way of a take-over bid circular;

  • (2) the take-over bid must be made to all holders of Voting Shares as registered on the books of the Corporation;

  • (3) the take-over bid must be outstanding for a minimum period of 60 days and Voting Shares tendered pursuant to the take-over bid may not be taken up prior to the expiry of the 60 day period and only if at such time more than 50% of the Voting Shares held by the Corporation’s Shareholders, other than the bidder, its affiliates and persons acting jointly or in concert and certain other persons (the “ Independent Shareholders ”), have been tendered to the take-over bid and not withdrawn; and

  • (4) if more than 50% of the Voting Shares held by Independent Shareholders are tendered to the takeover bid within the 60-day period, the bidder must make a public announcement of that fact and the take-over bid must remain open for deposits of Voting Shares for an additional 10 business days from the date of such public announcement.

The Rights Plan allows for a competing Permitted Bid (a “ Competing Permitted Bid ”) to be made while a Permitted Bid is in existence. A Competing Permitted Bid must satisfy all the requirements of a Permitted Bid except that it may expire on the same date as the Permitted Bid, subject to the requirement that it be outstanding for a minimum period of 35 days.

Neither a Permitted Bid nor a Competing Permitted Bid is required to be approved by the Board and such bids may be made directly to the Corporation’s Shareholders. Acquisitions of Voting Shares made pursuant to a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid do not give rise to a Flip-in Event.

Waiver and Redemption

The Board may, prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, waive the application of the Rights Plan to a particular Flip-in Event which would occur as a result of a take-over bid made under a circular prepared in accordance with applicable securities laws to all holders of Voting Shares. In such event, the Board shall be deemed to also have waived the application of the Rights Plan to any other Flip-in Event occurring as a result of any other takeover bid made under a circular prepared in accordance with applicable securities laws to all holders of Voting Shares prior to the expiry of any take-over bid for which the Rights Plan has been waived or deemed to have been waived.

In addition, with the prior consent of the holders of Voting Shares, the Board may, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, waive the application of the Rights Plan to such Flip-in Event.

Until the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, the Board may, with the approval of holders of the Voting Shares (or with the approval of holders of Rights if the Separation Time has occurred), elect to redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at $0.001 per Right. In the event that a person acquires Voting Shares pursuant to a Permitted Bid, a Competing Permitted Bid or pursuant to a transaction for which the Board has waived the application of the Rights Plan, then the Board shall, immediately upon the

8

consummation of such acquisition, without further formality, be deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights at the redemption price.

Amendment

The Board may amend the Rights Plan with the approval of a majority vote of the votes cast by the Corporation’s Shareholders (or the holders of Rights if the Separation Time has occurred) voting in person and by proxy at a meeting duly called for that purpose. The Board without such approval may correct clerical or typographical errors and, subject to approval as noted above at the next meeting of the Corporation’s Shareholders (or holders of Rights, as the case may be), may make amendments to the Rights Plan to maintain its validity due to changes in applicable legislation.

Rights Agent

TSX Trust Company

Rightsholder not a Shareholder

Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof as such will have no rights as a Shareholder of the Corporation.
