- to approve the voluntary delisting of the Shares from Toronto Stock Exchange if, and when, the Board, in its sole discretion, determines that such delisting is in the best interests of Numinus;
- to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.
This notice is accompanied by a form of proxy or voting instruction form and the Circular. The specific details of the foregoing matters to be put before the Meeting are set forth in the Circular. The board of directors of Numinus has fixed the close of business on July 14, 2025 (the "Record Date") as the record date for the determination of the Shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at the Meeting, and any adjournment thereof. All Shareholders of record as at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting virtually or by proxy.
Numinus is holding the Meeting virtually only, via live webcast. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person.
Registered Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online at: https://meetings.lumiconnect.com/400-136-012-239 provided that they follow the instructions in the accompanying Circular and remain connected to the internet at all times during the Meeting. Beneficial Shareholders (being Shareholders who hold their Shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company, custodian, nominee or other intermediary) who do not appoint themselves as their proxyholder in accordance with the instructions in the accompanying Circular and provided by their intermediary will be able to participate as guests at the Meeting. Guests will be able to listen to the proceedings of the Meeting but will not be able to vote. Shareholders who usually vote by proxy ahead of the Meeting will be able to do so in the same manner as previous Shareholder meetings.
As a Shareholder, it is very important that you read the Circular and other Meeting materials carefully. They contain important information with respect to voting your Shares and attending and participating at the Meeting. Shareholders should follow the instructions on the forms they receive. Shareholders with questions should contact their intermediaries or Odyssey Trust Company ("Odyssey"), Numinus' transfer agent, toll free within North America at 1-888-290-1175, outside of North America at 1-587-885-0960 or by e-mail to [email protected].
A Shareholder who wishes to appoint a person other than the management nominees identified on the form of proxy or voting instruction form, to represent him, her or it at the Meeting may do so by inserting such person's name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy or voting instruction form and following the instructions for submitting such form of proxy or voting instruction form. This must be completed prior to registering such proxyholder, which is an additional step to be completed once you have submitted your form of proxy or voting instruction form. In order to be valid and acted upon at the Meeting, completed proxies or votes must be received by Odyssey by 9:00 a.m. (Vancouver Time) on August 26, 2025 or, in the case of any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting, at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) prior to the time of the adjourned or postponed Meeting. A person appointed as proxyholder need not be a Shareholder. Please see the Circular for further instructions.
If you wish that a person other than the management nominees identified on the form of proxy or voting instruction form attend and participate at the Meeting as your proxy and vote your Shares, including if you are a beneficial Shareholder and wish to appoint yourself as proxyholder to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting, you MUST register such proxyholder after having submitted your form of proxy or voting instruction form identifying such proxyholder. Failure to register the proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a username to participate in the Meeting. Without a username, proxyholders will not be able to attend, participate or vote at the Meeting. To register a proxyholder, Shareholders must send an email to [email protected] and provide Odyssey with their proxyholder's contact information, amount of Shares appointed, name in which the Shares are registered if they are a registered Shareholder, or name of broker where the Shares are held if a beneficial Shareholder, so that Odyssey may provide the proxyholder with a username via email.
Numinus is using notice-and-access to provide Shareholders with access to electronic copies of this notice, the Circular, audited financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended August 31, 2024 and the accompanying management's discussion and analysis (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") instead of mailing paper copies. The Meeting Materials are being made available on Numinus' website at: https://www.investors.numinus.com/governance/governance-documents, and under Numinus' SEDAR+ profile on www.sedarplus.ca. The use of the notice-and-access provisions reduces costs to the Company. Shareholders may request to receive paper copies of the Meeting Materials by mail at no cost. Requests for paper copies must be received by August 18, 2025 in order
