LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

You are cordially invited to attend the annual general and special meeting (the "Meeting") of the holders (the "PreveCeutical Shareholders") of common shares (the "PreveCeutical Shares") of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. ("PreveCeutical") to be held at 10:00 A.M. (Vancouver time) on October 10, 2025 at Suite 2501 – 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and via Zoom at

https://us04web.zoom.us/j/74842588362?pwd=3MmJeRKW47hOLOabiGWWTskvwF5ONz.1 Meeting ID: 748 4258 8362
Passcode: 7PWmUj

At the Meeting, PreveCeutical Shareholders will, among other things, be asked to consider and vote on a special resolution (the "Arrangement Resolution") to approve the proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") under Part 9, Division 5 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) involving PreveCeutical and its subsidiary, BioGene Therapeutics Inc. ("BioGene"), pursuant to which PreveCeutical intends to spin-out 12,000,000 common shares of BioGene (the "BioGene Spinout Shares") to PreveCeutical Shareholders on a pro rata basis. PreveCeutical received the BioGene Spinout Shares on November 15, 2024 in consideration for the sale of certain intellectual property assets to BioGene.

The Arrangement

PreveCeutical and BioGene entered into an arrangement agreement dated September 3, 2025 (the "Arrangement Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, PreveCeutical will conduct a share capital reorganization whereby the existing PreveCeutical Shares will be renamed and redesignated as Class A common shares (each, a "PreveCeutical Class A Share") and a new class of voting common shares (each, a "New PreveCeutical Share") will be created. Each PreveCeutical Class A Share will be exchanged for one New PreveCeutical Share and the number of BioGene Spinout Shares which is equal to 12,000,000 divided by the number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Shares on the effective date of the Arrangement. Once the Arrangement is complete, PreveCeutical Shareholders will own shares in two companies: BioGene, which will focus on the development of the Dual Gene Therapy program, and PreveCeutical, which will continue to focus on developing innovative options for preventive and curative therapies utilizing organic and nature identical products.

Required Approvals

The Arrangement Resolution, the full text of which is set out in Schedule A to the accompanying management information circular (the "Information Circular"), must be approved by a Special Resolution.

Completion of the Arrangement is subject to, among other things, the approval of the PreveCeutical Shareholders at the Meeting in accordance with an order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court") dated September 9, 2025 and applicable law, the final approval of the Court, the conditional acceptance of PreveCeutical to consummate the Arrangement from the Canadian Securities Exchange and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. If the Arrangement is not approved at the Meeting, the Arrangement will not be completed.

The board of directors of PreveCeutical (the "PreveCeutical Board") has determined that the Arrangement is fair and is in the best interests of PreveCeutical and the PreveCeutical Shareholders and unanimously recommends that PreveCeutical Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement. In addition, Evans & Evans, Inc., an advisor to PreveCeutical, has provided a fairness opinion (the "Fairness Opinion") to the PreveCeutical Board to the effect that, as of September 3, 2025, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the consideration to be received by the PreveCeutical securityholders under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical securityholders.

The accompanying notice of meeting and Information Circular provide a full description of the Arrangement and includes certain additional information to assist you in considering how to vote in respect of the Arrangement. You are encouraged to consider carefully all of the information in the accompanying Information Circular, including the documents incorporated by reference therein. If you require assistance, you should contact your financial, legal, tax or other professional adviser. The Notice of Hearing of Petition, Interim Order and affidavit in support of PreveCeutical's motion for the Interim Order of the Court, excluding exhibits, are included as part of this Information Circular. The Notice of Application, Interim Order and affidavit, including all exhibits attached thereto, are also available on PreveCeutical's website at https://www.preveceutical.com.

(Vancouver time) on October 8, 2025, to ensure that your shares are voted at the Meeting in accordance with your instructions, whether or not you are able to attend in person. If you hold your PreveCeutical Shares through a broker or other intermediary, you should follow the instructions provided by them to vote your PreveCeutical Shares.

If you are a registered PreveCeutical Shareholder, we also encourage you to complete and return the accompanying letter of transmittal ("Letter of Transmittal") together with the certificate(s) (if any) representing your PreveCeutical Shares and any other required documents and instruments, to TSX Trust Company, acting as the depository, in the accompanying return envelope in accordance with the instructions set out in the Letter of Transmittal so that, if the Arrangement is completed, New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares can be sent to you as soon as possible after the Arrangement becomes effective. The Letter of Transmittal contains other procedural information related to the Arrangement, and should be reviewed carefully. If you hold your PreveCeutical Shares through a broker or other intermediary, please contact them for instructions and assistance in receiving New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares in exchange for your PreveCeutical Shares. Assuming that all conditions to completion of the Arrangement are satisfied, it is anticipated that the Arrangement will become effective on or about October 10, 2025.

On behalf of PreveCeutical, we thank all shareholders for their ongoing support.

Yours very truly,

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Information Circular contains “forward-looking statements” or “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information is provided as of the date of this Information Circular or, in the case of documents incorporated by reference herein, as of the date of such documents and neither PreveCeutical nor BioGene intend to, nor do they assume any obligation, to update this forward-looking information, except as required by law. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”.

Forward-looking information is based on reasonable assumptions that have been made by PreveCeutical as at the date of such information and is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of PreveCeutical to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to: the risk of PreveCeutical not obtaining Court, shareholder or approval of the CSE to proceed with the Arrangement; the risk of unexpected tax consequences to the Arrangement; the risk of unanticipated material expenditures required by PreveCeutical prior to completion of the Arrangement; risks of the market valuing PreveCeutical and/or BioGene in a manner not anticipated by PreveCeutical; risks relating to the benefits of the Arrangement not being realized or as anticipated; availability of capital, including the ability of BioGene to raise sufficient capital through one or more offerings of securities to operate its business; the accuracy of PreveCeutical’s projections and estimates; interest and exchange rates; competition; share price fluctuations; actual results of activities; government regulation; political or economic developments; environmental risks; insurance risks; capital expenditures; operating or technical difficulties in connection with research and development activities; personnel relations; changes and volatility in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; the inherent uncertainties regarding cost estimates, financing, cost overruns, availability of materials and equipment, timeliness of government approvals, taxation, political risk and related economic risk; global financial conditions; the market price of PreveCeutical’s securities; ability to access capital; changes in interest rates; liabilities and risks inherent in research and development operations; the potential influence of or reliance upon PreveCeutical’s business partners, and the adequacy of insurance coverage; as well as those factors discussed in the sections entitled “PreveCeutical Medical Inc. – Risk Factors” and “BioGene Therapeutics Inc. – Risk Factors” herein. Forward-looking information is based on certain assumptions that PreveCeutical and BioGene believe are reasonable, including that the required shareholder, Court and regulatory and stock exchange approvals for the transactions described in this Information Circular will be obtained; that the transactions described in this Information Circular will be completed as disclosed herein; that the current directors and officers of PreveCeutical and BioGene will continue in their respective capacities as directors and officers of PreveCeutical and BioGene, as applicable; that sufficient working capital will be available for both PreveCeutical and BioGene; and that shareholdings of certain shareholders of PreveCeutical will not change prior to the closing of the transactions described herein; that the general business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner, that financing will be available if and when needed on reasonable terms and that PreveCeutical will not experience any material labour dispute, accident, or failure of plant or equipment and such other assumptions and factors as set out herein.

Although PreveCeutical has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. PreveCeutical does not


  • 10 -

undertake to update any forward-looking information contained herein or that is incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

DATE OF INFORMATION

Information contained in this Information Circular is as September 9, 2025, unless otherwise indicated.

REPORTING CURRENCIES AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The financial statements of PreveCeutical and BioGene contained in this Information Circular are reported in Canadian dollars and have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. All references to dollar amounts in this Information Circular are to Canadian dollars unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires.

CURRENCY

Unless otherwise indicated herein, references to “$”, “Cdn$” “Canadian dollars” are to Canadian dollars, and references to “US$” or “U.S. dollars” are to United States dollars.

DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

Information has been incorporated by reference in this Information Circular from documents filed by PreveCeutical with the securities commissions or similar authorities in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario (the “Reporting Jurisdictions”). Copies of the documents incorporated herein by reference may be obtained on request without charge from the Chief Executive Officer of PreveCeutical at 2500 – 885 Cambie Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 0R6, Telephone: 604.306.9669, and are also available electronically on PreveCeutical’s profile on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca.

Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Information Circular to the extent that a statement contained in this Information Circular or in any subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies, replaces or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Information Circular. The modifying or superseding statement need not state that it has modified or superseded a prior statement or include any other information set forth in the document that it modifies or supersedes. The making of such a modifying or superseding statement shall not be deemed an admission for any purpose that the modified or superseded statement, when made, constituted a misrepresentation, an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact that is required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances in which it was made.

NOTE TO UNITED STATES SECURITYHOLDERS

THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLAN OF ARRANGEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “SEC”) OR SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES IN ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, NOR HAS THE SEC OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES PASSED ON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS INFORMATION CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The BioGene Spinout Shares and New PreveCeutical Shares to be issued to PreveCeutical Shareholders in exchange for PreveCeutical Class A Shares under the Plan of Arrangement pursuant to the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act, and are being issued and exchanged or accomplished in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act (the “Section 3(a)(10) Exemption”) on the basis of the approval of the Court, and similar exemptions from registration under applicable state securities laws. The Section 3(a)(10) Exemption exempts the issuance of any securities issued in exchange for


  • 11 -

one or more bona fide outstanding securities from the general requirement of registration where the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange of such securities have been approved by a court of competent jurisdiction that is expressly authorized by law to grant such approval, after a hearing upon the substantive and procedural fairness of the terms and conditions of such issuance and exchange at which all persons to whom it is proposed to issue the securities have the right to appear and receive timely and adequate notice thereof. The Court is authorized to conduct a hearing at which the substantive and procedural fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement will be considered. The Court issued the Interim Order on September 9, 2025 and, subject to the approval of the Arrangement by the PreveCeutical Shareholders, a hearing of the application for the Final Order will be held on or about October 16, 2025 at 9:45 a.m. (Vancouver Time) at the Courthouse, at 800 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. All PreveCeutical Securityholders are entitled to appear and be heard at this hearing. The Final Order will constitute a basis for the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption with respect to the BioGene Shares and New PreveCeutical Shares to be issued to the PreveCeutical Class A Shareholders in exchange for their PreveCeutical Shares pursuant to the Arrangement. Prior to the hearing on the Final Order, the Court will be informed of this effect of the Final Order. “U.S. Securities Laws” and “Approval of the Arrangement – Court Approval of the Arrangement”.

The solicitation of proxies hereby is not subject to the proxy requirements of section 14(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act. Furthermore, this Information Circular has been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements in Canada, and the solicitations and transactions contemplated in this Information Circular are made in the United States for securities of a Canadian issuer in accordance with applicable Canadian corporate and securities laws. U.S. Securityholders should be aware that such requirements are different than those of the United States.

Likewise, information concerning the operations of PreveCeutical and BioGene has been prepared in accordance with Canadian standards, and may not be comparable to similar information for United States companies.

Certain financial statements and information included or incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and are subject to auditing and auditor independence standards in Canada, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and United States auditing and auditor independence standards.

U.S. Securityholders should be aware that the issue and exchange of the securities described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein.

Each U.S. Securityholder should consult its own tax adviser regarding the proper treatment of the Arrangement and the ownership and disposition of securities of PreveCeutical or BioGene for United States federal income tax purposes.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be adversely affected by the fact that PreveCeutical and BioGene are incorporated or organized outside the United States, that most of their officers and directors and the experts named herein may be residents of a country other than the United States, and that certain of the assets of PreveCeutical, BioGene and said persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for U.S. Securityholders to effect service of process within the United States upon PreveCeutical or BioGene, their respective directors or officers, or the experts named herein, or to realize against them upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States. In addition, U.S. Securityholders should not assume that the courts of Canada: (a) would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States; or (b) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States.


  • 12 -

The BioGene Shares and New PreveCeutical Shares to be issued to PreveCeutical Shareholders in exchange for their PreveCeutical Class A Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely transferable under U.S. federal securities laws, except by persons who are "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act) of BioGene or PreveCeutical, respectively, after the Effective Date, or were "affiliates" of BioGene or PreveCeutical, respectively, within 90 days prior to the Effective Date. Persons who may be deemed to be "affiliates" of an issuer include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, the issuer, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, and generally include executive officers and directors of the issuer as well as principal shareholders of the issuer. Any resale of such BioGene Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares by such an affiliate (or former affiliate) may be subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, absent an exemption therefrom. See "U.S. Securities Laws".

The Arrangement

In order to be effective, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by a Special Resolution. Under the Arrangement, PreveCeutical will, among other things, spin-out 12,000,000 of the shares of its subsidiary, BioGene, which were issued in connection with the acquisition of the BioGene Business on November 15, 2024, to the PreveCeutical Shareholders. See “Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement” in this Information Circular.

Summary of the Arrangement

The Arrangement will be completed by way of plan of arrangement pursuant to Section 288 of the BCBCA involving PreveCeutical, the Shareholders and BioGene. The disclosure of the principal features of the Arrangement, as summarized below, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Information Circular as Schedule “B”.

Reasons for the Arrangement

PreveCeutical believes that the Arrangement is in the best interests of PreveCeutical and the PreveCeutical Shareholders for numerous reasons, including:

(a) PreveCeutical Shareholders will benefit by holding shares in two separate companies;
(b) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to focus on their own strategic opportunities;
(c) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to retain, motivate and recruit key personnel more effectively;
(d) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to maintain different and appropriate capital structure and dividend policies;


  • 15 -

(e) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to develop its own focused investor basis;

(f) it will allow management of each business to focus solely on that business;

(g) the Fairness Opinion delivered to the PreveCeutical Board, to the effect that, as of September 3, 2025, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to PreveCeutical Securityholders; and

(h) separating PreveCeutical and BioGene will expand BioGene’s potential shareholder base and access to capital for research, development and clinical trials by allowing investors that want specific ownership in the particular business of BioGene the opportunity to invest directly in BioGene rather than through PreveCeutical.

Evans & Evans, Inc. has provided the Fairness Opinion to the PreveCeutical Board in respect of the fairness of the terms of the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical Securityholders. Based upon its review and such other matters as Evans & Evans, Inc. have considered relevant, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set out in the Fairness Opinion, it is its opinion that, as of September 3, 2025 the Arrangement (based on the Plan of Arrangement and Arrangement Agreement) is fair, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical Securityholders. The Fairness Opinion is attached to this Information Circular as Schedule “K”.

In the course of its deliberations, the PreveCeutical Board also identified and considered a variety of risks and potentially negative factors, including, but not limited to, the risks set out under “Approval of the Arrangement – Arrangement Risk Factors”.

The foregoing discussion summarizes the material information and factors considered by the PreveCeutical Board in their consideration of the Arrangement. The PreveCeutical Board collectively reached its unanimous decision with respect to the Arrangement in light of the factors described above and other factors that each member of the PreveCeutical Board felt were appropriate. In view of the wide variety of factors and the quality and amount of information considered, the PreveCeutical Board did not find it useful or practicable to, and did not make specific assessments of, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. Individual members of the PreveCeutical Board may have given different weight to different factors.

For further information on the reasons for the Arrangement, see “Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement – Recommendation of the Directors” in this Information Circular.

Principal Steps of the Arrangement

The following is a summary of the principal steps of the Arrangement:

(a) the existing PreveCeutical Shares will be redesignated as PreveCeutical Class A Shares;

(b) PreveCeutical will create a new class of common shares known as the New PreveCeutical Shares;

(c) each PreveCeutical Class A Share will be exchanged for one New PreveCeutical Share and the number of BioGene Spinout Shares which is equal to 12,000,000 divided by the number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Shares on the effective date of the Arrangement; and

(d) the PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be cancelled.

As a result of the Arrangement, PreveCeutical Shareholders will own the BioGene Spinout Shares, and PreveCeutical will have no further interest in the BioGene Shares. The Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions including CSE acceptance, approval by the PreveCeutical Shareholders and Court approval.


  • 16 -

Pursuant to Section 288 of the BCBCA and in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and the Interim Order, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved, with or without variation, by at least two-thirds of the votes cast by PreveCeutical Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

The PreveCeutical Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine whether or not to proceed with the Arrangement without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the PreveCeutical Shareholders.

The foregoing is a summary only. For further details see “Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement” in this Information Circular.

Effect of the Arrangement

As a result of the Arrangement, PreveCeutical Shareholders will no longer hold their PreveCeutical Shares and instead, will receive one New PreveCeutical Share and the number of BioGene Spinout Shares equal to 12,000,000 divided by the number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Shares on the effective date of the Arrangement, and as a result, will hold shares in two companies.

Upon completion of the Arrangement, it is anticipated that BioGene will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions.

Recommendation of the Directors

After careful consideration, the PreveCeutical Board, after receiving legal and financial advice, has unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of PreveCeutical and is fair to the PreveCeutical Securityholders. Accordingly, the PreveCeutical Board unanimously recommends that PreveCeutical Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.

Each director and officer of PreveCeutical who owns PreveCeutical Shares has indicated his or her intention to vote his or her PreveCeutical Shares in favour of the Arrangement Resolution. See “Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement – Recommendation of the Directors” in this Information Circular.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION

Solicitation of Proxies

This Information Circular is provided to registered and beneficial owners of PreveCeutical Shares in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of PreveCeutical for use at the Meeting to be held at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and at any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Persons or Companies Making the Solicitation

The enclosed instrument of proxy is solicited by management. Solicitations will be made by mail and possibly supplemented by telephone or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by regular officers and employees of PreveCeutical. PreveCeutical may reimburse PreveCeutical Shareholders' nominees or agents (including brokers holding shares on behalf of clients) for the cost incurred in obtaining authorization from their principals to execute the instrument of proxy. No solicitation will be made by specifically engaged employees or soliciting agents. The cost of solicitation will be borne by PreveCeutical. None of the directors of PreveCeutical have advised management in writing that they intend to oppose any action intended to be taken by management as set forth in this Information Circular.

Appointment and Revocation of Proxies

This Information Circular is accompanied by a management instrument of proxy that permits registered shareholders (a "Registered Holder") who do not attend the Meeting in person to have their PreveCeutical Shares voted at the Meeting by a proxyholder appointed by the Registered Holder. The persons named in the accompanying instrument of proxy are directors or officers of PreveCeutical. A PreveCeutical Shareholder has the right to appoint a person to attend and act for the PreveCeutical Shareholder at the Meeting other than the persons named in the enclosed instrument of proxy. To exercise this right, the PreveCeutical Shareholder must strike out the names of the persons named in the instrument of proxy and insert the name of the nominee in the blank space provided or complete another instrument of proxy.

The completed instrument of proxy must be dated and signed and the duly completed instrument of proxy must be deposited at PreveCeutical's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, 733 Seymour Street, Suite 2310, Vancouver, BC V6B 0S6, at least 48 hours before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

The instrument of proxy must be signed by the PreveCeutical Shareholder or by his/hers/its duly authorized attorney. If signed by a duly authorized attorney, the instrument of proxy must be accompanied by the original power of attorney or a notarially certified copy thereof. If the PreveCeutical Shareholder is a corporation, the instrument of proxy must be signed by a duly authorized attorney, officer, or corporate representative, and must be accompanied by the original power of attorney or document whereby the duly authorized officer or corporate representative derives his power, as the case may be, or a notarially certified copy thereof. The Chairman of the Meeting has discretionary authority to accept proxies that do not strictly conform to the foregoing requirements.


  • 29 -

In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a PreveCeutical Shareholder may revoke a proxy by (a) signing a proxy bearing a later date and depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid, (b) signing and dating a written notice of revocation (in the same manner as the instrument of proxy is required to be executed as set out in the notes to the instrument of proxy) and either depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or on the day of any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, or (c) registering with the scrutineer at the Meeting as a PreveCeutical Shareholder present in person, whereupon such proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked.

Voting of Shares and Exercise of Discretion Of Proxies

On any poll, the persons named as proxyholder in the enclosed instrument of proxy will vote the PreveCeutical Shares in respect of which they are appointed and, where directions are given by the PreveCeutical Shareholder in respect of voting for or against any resolution, will do so in accordance with such direction.

In the absence of any direction in the instrument of proxy, it is intended that such PreveCeutical Shares will be voted in favour of all of the resolutions placed before the Meeting by management, including the Arrangement, the election of the management nominees for directors, the auditor and the adoption of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as stated under the headings in this Information Circular. The instrument of proxy enclosed, when properly completed and deposited, confers discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations to the matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and with respect to any other matters that may be properly brought before the Meeting. At the time of printing of this Information Circular, the management of PreveCeutical is not aware that any such amendments, variations or other matters are to be presented for action at the Meeting. However, if any such amendments, variations or other matters should properly come before the Meeting, the proxies hereby solicited will be voted thereon in accordance with the best judgement of the nominee.

Advice to Beneficial Holders of PreveCeutical Shares

The following information is of significant importance to PreveCeutical Shareholders who do not hold PreveCeutical 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 Holders (those whose names appear on the records of PreveCeutical as the Registered Holder of PreveCeutical Shares).

If shares are listed in an account statement provided to a PreveCeutical Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those PreveCeutical Shares will not be registered in the PreveCeutical Shareholder's name on the records of PreveCeutical. Such PreveCeutical Shares will most likely be registered under the names of the PreveCeutical Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such PreveCeutical Shares are registered 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), and in the United States, 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).

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from beneficial shareholders in advance of PreveCeutical Shareholders' meetings. 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").

PreveCeutical is taking advantage of the provisions of NI 54-101, which permit it to directly deliver proxy-related materials to its NOBOs. As a result, NOBOs can expect to receive a scannable Voting Instruction Form (a "VIF") from Computershare Trust Company of Canada. These VIFs are to be completed and returned to the Transfer Agent in the envelope provided or by facsimile. In addition, Computershare provides both telephone and internet voting


  • 30 -

options, as described in the VIF. The Transfer Agent will tabulate the results of the VIFs received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions with respect to the PreveCeutical Shares represented by the VIFs they receive.

These Meeting Materials are being sent to both Registered Holders and certain Non-Registered Holders of the PreveCeutical Shares. If you are a Non-Registered Holder and PreveCeutical or its agent has sent these Meeting Materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of PreveCeutical Shares have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding PreveCeutical Shares on your behalf.

By choosing to send these Meeting Materials to you directly, PreveCeutical (and not the Intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for delivering these Meeting Materials to you and executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions by completing and returning the enclosed VIF in accordance with the instructions contained in the VIF.

Beneficial shareholders who are OBOs will not receive the materials unless their Intermediary assumes the costs of delivery. In the event that voting instructions are requested from OBOs, such instructions will typically be sought by the PreveCeutical Shareholder receiving either a form of proxy or a voting instruction form. If a form of proxy is supplied to you by your broker, it will be similar to the proxy provided to Registered Holders by PreveCeutical. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the Intermediary on how to vote on your behalf. Most brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") in Canada and the United States. Broadridge obtains voting instructions by mailing a voting instruction form (the "Broadridge VIF") which appoints the same persons as PreveCeutical's proxy to represent you at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a beneficial shareholder of PreveCeutical), other than the persons designated in the Broadridge VIF, to represent you at the Meeting. To exercise this right, you should insert the name of the desired representative in the blank space provided in the Broadridge VIF. The completed Broadridge 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 shares to be represented at the Meeting.

If you plan to vote in person at the Meeting:

  • nominate yourself as the appointee to attend and vote at the Meeting by printing your name in the space provided on the enclosed voting instruction form. Your vote will be counted at the Meeting so do NOT complete the voting instructions on the form;
  • sign and return the form, following the instructions provided by your nominee; and
  • register with the Scrutineer when you arrive at the Meeting.

You may also nominate yourself as appointee online, if available, by typing your name in the "Appointee" section on the electronic ballot.

If you bring your voting instruction form to the Meeting, your vote will not count. Your vote can only be counted if you have completed, signed and returned your voting instruction form in accordance with the instructions above and attend the Meeting and vote in person.

Voting Securities and Principal Holders of Voting Securities

As at August 20, 2025, 570,649,459 PreveCeutical Shares were issued and outstanding, with each PreveCeutical Share carrying the right to one vote. At a general meeting of PreveCeutical, on a show of hands, every shareholder present in person has one vote and, on a poll, every PreveCeutical Shareholder has one vote for each PreveCeutical held. Subject to the special rights and restriction attached to the shares of any class or series of shares, the quorum for the Meeting is one person, present in person or by proxy, who holds, or who represents by proxy, shareholders


  • 31 -

who, in aggregate, hold at least 1/20 the PreveCeutical Shares entitled to be voted at the meeting of PreveCeutical Shareholder. Only PreveCeutical Shareholders of record at the close of business on August 20, 2025, will be entitled to have their PreveCeutical Shares voted at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. All such holders of record of PreveCeutical Shares are entitled either to attend and vote thereat in person the PreveCeutical Shares held by them or, provided a completed and executed proxy shall have been delivered to the Transfer Agent within the time specified in the attached Notice of Special Meeting of PreveCeutical Shareholders, to attend and vote by proxy the PreveCeutical Shares held by them.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of PreveCeutical, no person beneficially owns or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding PreveCeutical Shares.

Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

PreveCeutical adopted the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan on September 7, 2016, which was approved by the PreveCeutical Shareholders on February 5, 2021, to encourage share ownership and entrepreneurship on the part of the directors, senior management, employees and consultants. The PreveCeutical Board believes that the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan aligns the interests of NEOs with the interests of PreveCeutical Shareholders by linking a component of executive compensation to the longer-term performance of the PreveCeutical Shares.

Other than the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan, PreveCeutical currently does not have any other stock option plan, stock option agreement made outside of a stock option plan, plan providing for the grant of stock appreciation rights, deferred share units or restricted stock units or any other incentive plan or portion of a plan under which awards are granted.

The PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan is administered by the PreveCeutical Board, who have full and final authority with respect to the granting of all PreveCeutical Options thereunder. Accordingly, all options granted to NEOs are approved by the PreveCeutical Board. Options may be granted under the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan to such service providers of PreveCeutical and its affiliates, if any, as the PreveCeutical Board may from time to time designate. PreveCeutical has not set specific target levels for options to NEOs but seeks to be competitive with similar companies.

The PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan provides that, subject to the requirements of the CSE, the aggregate number of securities reserved for issuance will be 10% of the number of PreveCeutical Shares issued and outstanding from time to time.

In monitoring stock option grants, the PreveCeutical Board generally takes into account the following factors: the level of options granted by comparable companies for similar levels of responsibility, prior grants to a proposed optionee, the executive's past performance, anticipated future contribution, the percentage of outstanding equity owned by the executive, the level of vested and unvested options, and on reports received from management, its


  • 37 -

own observations on individual performance (where possible) and its assessment of individual contribution to PreveCeutical Shareholder value.

In addition to determining the number of PreveCeutical Options to be granted pursuant to the methodology outlined above, and subject to earlier termination in the event of dismissal for cause, early retirement, voluntary resignation or termination other than for cause, or in the event of death or disability, the PreveCeutical Board also makes the following determinations:

  • the exercise price for each PreveCeutical Option granted;
  • the date on which each PreveCeutical Option is granted;
  • the vesting terms for each PreveCeutical Option; and
  • the other material terms and conditions of each PreveCeutical Option grant.

The PreveCeutical Board makes these determinations subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan. PreveCeutical Options granted under the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by testamentary instrument or pursuant to the laws of succession.

The NEOs currently employed by PreveCeutical hold a total of 8,000,000 PreveCeutical Options pursuant to the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan as at the date hereof. These PreveCeutical Options have exercise prices between $0.025 and $0.03 per PreveCeutical Share.

The material terms of the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan are set out below, which summary is intended as a brief description of the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan, which will be available for review at the Meeting and at PreveCeutical's head office located at Suite 2500, 885 Cambie Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 0R6 for 10 business days prior to the Meeting, during business hours.

The PreveCeutical Board, in its discretion, determines whether to grant options under the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan to Eligible Persons.

  1. Number of Shares Reserved

The number of PreveCeutical Shares which may be issued pursuant to PreveCeutical Options granted under the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Shares, on a non-diluted basis, at the date the options are granted. In addition, the number of PreveCeutical Shares which may be issued pursuant to PreveCeutical Options granted under the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan to any one optionee shall not exceed 5% of the total number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Shares, on a non-diluted basis, at the date the options are granted (unless otherwise approved by disinterested PreveCeutical Shareholders).

5. Vesting

All PreveCeutical Options granted pursuant to the PreveCeutical Stock Option Plan will be subject to such vesting requirements as may be prescribed by the CSE, if applicable, and will be granted as fully vested unless a vesting schedule is imposed by the PreveCeutical Board as a condition of the grant on the grant date.

(i) 365 days after the date of death or disability; and
(ii) the expiry date of the options.

(b) Termination for Cause

If the optionee, or in the case of a management company employee or a consultant company, the optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person as a result of termination for cause, as that term is interpreted by the courts of the jurisdiction in which the optionee, or, in the case of a management company employee or a consultant company, of the optionee's employer, is employed or engaged; any outstanding option held by such optionee on the date of such termination shall be cancelled as of that date.

(c) Early Retirement, Voluntary Resignation or Termination Other than For Cause

If the optionee or, in the case of a management company employee or a consultant company, the optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person due to his or her retirement at the request of his or her employer earlier than the normal retirement date under PreveCeutical's retirement policy then in force, or due to his or her termination by PreveCeutical other than for cause, or due to his or her voluntary resignation, the option then held by the optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of the expiry

7. Repricing of Stock Options

At the Meeting, the PreveCeutical Shareholders will be asked to adopt the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. For additional details regarding the terms of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, see below under the heading "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan".

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

Except as set out below or as set forth under the heading "Termination and Change of Control Benefits", PreveCeutical does not have any agreement or arrangement under which compensation was provided during the most recently completed financial year or is payable in respect of services provided to PreveCeutical that were performed by a NEOs or a director of PreveCeutical, or by any other party which provided services that are typically provided by a NEO or a director of the PreveCeutical.

PreveCeutical and its subsidiary have entered into an employment agreement (the "Executive Employment Agreement") dated for reference November 1, 2018 with Stephen Van Deventer, whereby Stephen Van Deventer acts as CEO of PreveCeutical at an annual base salary of $120,000.

Oversight and Description of Director and NEO Compensation

The PreveCeutical Board relies on the experience of its members to ensure that total compensation paid to PreveCeutical's management is fair and reasonable and is both in-line with PreveCeutical's financial resources and competitive with companies at a similar stage of development. PreveCeutical does not have in place a compensation committee. All tasks related to developing and monitoring PreveCeutical's approach to the compensation of executive officers of PreveCeutical are performed by the members of the PreveCeutical Board. The PreveCeutical Board meets to discuss and determine management compensation as required, without reference to formal objectives, criteria or analysis.

Compensation Philosophy

PreveCeutical has taken a forward-looking approach for the compensation for its directors, officers, employees and consultants to ensure that PreveCeutical can continue to build and retain a successful and motivated discovery and development team and, importantly, align PreveCeutical's future success with that of PreveCeutical Shareholders. PreveCeutical's compensation strategy is to attract and retain talent and experience with focused leadership in the operations, financing and asset management of PreveCeutical with the objective of maximizing the value of PreveCeutical.

PreveCeutical compensates its NEOs based on their skill and experience levels and the existing stage of development of PreveCeutical. NEOs are rewarded on the basis of the skill and level of responsibility involved in their position, the individual's experience and qualifications, PreveCeutical's resources, industry practice, and regulatory guidelines regarding executive compensation levels.

Under PreveCeutical's compensation policies and practices, NEOs and directors are not prevented from purchasing financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in the market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the executive officer or director.

PreveCeutical has not currently identified specific performance goals or benchmarks as such relate to executive compensation. The stage of PreveCeutical's development and the size of its specialized management team allow frequent communication and constant management decisions in the interest of developing PreveCeutical Shareholder value as a primary goal.

The PreveCeutical Board believes that the compensation policies and practices of PreveCeutical do not encourage executive officers to take unnecessary or excessive risks; however, the PreveCeutical Board intends to review from time to time and at least once annually, the risks, if any, associated with PreveCeutical's compensation policies and practices at such time. Implicit in the PreveCeutical Board's mandate is that PreveCeutical's policies and practices respecting compensation, including those applicable to PreveCeutical's executives, be designed in a manner which is in the best interests of PreveCeutical and PreveCeutical Shareholders and risk implications is one of many considerations which are taken into account in such design.

Compensation Components

The PreveCeutical Board has implemented three levels of compensation to align the interests of the NEOs with those of the PreveCeutical Shareholders. First, NEOs may be paid a monthly salary or consulting fee. Second, the PreveCeutical Board may award NEOs long-term incentives in the form of stock options or other incentive based securities. Finally, and only in special circumstances, the PreveCeutical Board may award cash or share bonuses for


exceptional performance that results in a significant increase in PreveCeutical Shareholder value. PreveCeutical does not provide medical, dental, pension or other benefits to NEOs. To date, no specific formulas have been developed to assign a specific weighting to each of these components.

Base Salary

The base compensation of the NEOs is reviewed and set annually by the PreveCeutical Board. The salary review for each NEO is based on an assessment of factors such as:

(a) current competitive market conditions;
(b) compensation levels within the peer group;
(c) level of responsibility and importance of the position within PreveCeutical; and
(d) particular skills, such as leadership ability and management effectiveness, experience, responsibility and proven or expected performance of the particular individual.

Using this information, together with budgetary guidelines and other internally generated planning and forecasting tools, the PreveCeutical Board performs an annual assessment of the compensation of all executive officer compensation levels and then sets the base salaries or consulting fees of the NEOs.

Pension Plan Benefits

PreveCeutical does not have any pension, defined benefit, defined contribution or deferred compensation plans in place.

AUDIT COMMITTEE DISCLOSURE

Under National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees ("NI 52-110"), a reporting issuer is required to provide disclosure annually with respect to its audit committee, including the text of its audit committee charter, information regarding the composition of the audit committee, and information regarding fees paid to its external auditor. PreveCeutical provides the following disclosure with respect to its audit committee (the "Audit Committee").

Overview

The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the PreveCeutical Board in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by:

(a) reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by PreveCeutical to regulatory authorities and PreveCeutical Shareholders;

(b) reviewing the systems for internal corporate controls which have been established by the PreveCeutical Board and management; and

(c) overseeing PreveCeutical's financial reporting processes generally.

In meeting these responsibilities, the Audit Committee monitors the financial reporting process and internal control system, reviews and appraises the work of external auditors, and provides an avenue of communication between the external auditors, senior management and the PreveCeutical Board. The Audit Committee is also mandated to review and approve all material related party transactions.

Audit Committee Charter

PreveCeutical has adopted a Charter for the Audit Committee which sets out the committee's mandate, organization, powers and responsibilities, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule "L".

Composition of the Audit Committee

Unless it is a "venture issuer" (an issuer, the securities of which are not listed or quoted on any of the Toronto Stock Exchange, a market in the USA other than the over-the-counter market, or a market outside of Canada and the USA) as of the end of its last financial year, NI 52-110 requires each of the members of the Audit Committee to be independent and financially literate. Since PreveCeutical is a "venture issuer" (its securities are listed on the CSE but are not listed or quoted on any other exchange or market) it is exempt from this requirement.

The Audit Committee is currently comprised of the following members:

Stephen Van Deventer (Chairman)

C. Evan Ballantyne

Kathleen Rokita

Each member of the Audit Committee is considered to be "financially literate" as defined by NI 52-110 in that the member has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can presumably be expected to be raised by PreveCeutical's financial statements.


  • 43 -

Two of the three current members of the Audit Committee, C. Evan Ballantyne and Kathleen Rokita, are independent, while the third member, Stephen Van Deventer, is not considered independent as he an executive officer of PreveCeutical. To be considered to be independent, a member of the Audit Committee must not have any direct or indirect "material relationship" with PreveCeutical. A material relationship is a relationship which could, in the view of the PreveCeutical Board reasonably interfere with the exercise of a member's independent judgment.

The members of the Audit Committee are elected by the PreveCeutical Board at its first meeting following the annual shareholders' meeting. Unless a Chairman is elected by the full PreveCeutical Board, the members of the Audit Committee designate a Chairman by a majority vote of the full Committee membership.

Relevant Education and Experience

All of the members of the Audit Committee are able to understand and interpret information related to financial statement analysis. Each of the members of the Audit Committee has a general understanding of the accounting principles used by PreveCeutical to prepare its financial statements and will seek clarification from PreveCeutical's auditors, where required. Each of the members of the Audit Committee also has direct experience in understanding accounting principles for private and reporting companies. The relevant experience of the current members of the Audit Committee is as follows:

Reliance on Certain Exemptions

Since the commencement of PreveCeutical's most recently completed financial year, PreveCeutical has not relied on the exemptions in Sections 2.4, 6.1.1(4), 6.1.1(5), or 6.1.1(6) or Part 8 of NI 52-110. Section 2.4 (De Minimis Non-Audit Services) provides an exemption from the requirement that the Audit Committee must pre-approve all non-audit services to be provided by the auditor, where the total amount of fees related to the non-audit services are not expected to exceed 5% of the total fees payable to the auditor in the financial year in which the non-audit services were provided. Sections 6.1.1(4) (Circumstance Affecting the Business or Operations of the Venture Issuer), 6.1.1(5) (Events Outside Control of Member) and 6.1.1(6) (Death, Incapacity or Resignation) provide exemptions from the requirement that a majority of the members of the Audit Committee must not be executive officers, employees or control persons of PreveCeutical or of an affiliate of PreveCeutical. Part 8 (Exemptions) permits a company to apply to a securities regulatory authority or regulator for an exemption from the requirements of NI 52-110 in whole or in part.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Formal policies and procedures for the engagement of non-audit services have yet to be formulated and adopted. Subject to the requirements of NI 52-110, the engagement of non-audit services is considered by the PreveCeutical Board and the Audit Committee, on a case-by-case basis as applicable.

External Auditor Service Fees

In the following table, "audit fees" are fees billed by PreveCeutical's external auditor for services provided in auditing PreveCeutical's annual financial statements for the subject year. "Audit-related fees" are fees not included in audit fees that are billed by the auditor for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit review of PreveCeutical's financial statements. "Tax fees" are fees billed by the auditor for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. "All other fees" are fees billed by the auditor for products and services not included in the foregoing categories.

The aggregate fees billed by PreveCeutical's auditor, Davidson & Company LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, and Smythe LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, by category, are as follows:

The PreveCeutical Board briefs all new directors with respect to the policies of the PreveCeutical Board and other relevant corporate and business information. The PreveCeutical Board does not provide any continuing education.

Ethical Business Conduct

The PreveCeutical Board adopted a formal code of business conduct and ethics (the "Code") which was approved by the PreveCeutical Board in October 2018. PreveCeutical expects each of its directors, officers and employees to read and become familiar with the ethical standards described in this Code.

The Code summarizes the legal, ethical and regulatory standards that PreveCeutical must follow to promote integrity and deter wrongdoing, and is a reminder to PreveCeutical's directors, officers, consultants and employees of the seriousness of that commitment. Compliance with this Code and high standards of business conduct is mandatory for every director, officer and employee of PreveCeutical or any of its subsidiaries

The PreveCeutical Board is of the view that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by PreveCeutical's governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director's participation in decisions of the PreveCeutical Board in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the PreveCeutical Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of PreveCeutical.

A copy of the Code can be obtained by contacting PreveCeutical by mail at Suite 2500, 885 Cambie Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6B 0R6, Attention: CEO or by telephone: 604.306.9669.

PreveCeutical is not aware of any conduct of any director or officer of PreveCeutical that constitutes a departure from the Code.

Nomination of Directors

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (the "Corporate Governance Committee") of the PreveCeutical Board is responsible for evaluating proposals for new nominees to the PreveCeutical Board, and conducting such background reviews, assessments, interviews and other procedures as it believes necessary to ascertain the suitability of a particular nominee. The selection of potential nominees for review by the Corporate Governance Committee is generally the result of recruitment efforts by the individual incumbent director, including both formal and informal discussions among the directors and with the CEO and President, and are usually based upon the desire to have a specific set of skills or expertise included on the PreveCeutical Board. The appointment of new directors (either to fill vacancies or to add additional directors as permitted by applicable corporate legislation) or the nomination for election as a director of a person not currently a director by the shareholders at an annual general meeting is carried out by the PreveCeutical Board, based on the recommendation(s) of the Corporate Governance Committee.

Compensation

PreveCeutical has not adopted a formal compensation committee. The PreveCeutical Board, as a whole, acts as PreveCeutical's compensation committee. The performance of the CEO, President, CFO and other senior management of PreveCeutical is evaluated by the independent directors of the PreveCeutical Board and measured against PreveCeutical's business goals and industry compensation levels. During the financial year ended December 31, 2024, the PreveCeutical Board did not retain any such outside consultants or advisors to assist in the determination of compensation for any of PreveCeutical's directors or executive officers.

The Corporate Governance Committee has, as part of its mandate, the responsibility for producing reports with respect to performance evaluations of the CEO, the PreveCeutical Board as a whole, the individual committees of the PreveCeutical Board and individual directors, on an annual basis.

An ordinary resolution needs to be passed by a simple majority of the votes cast by the PreveCeutical Shareholders, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting, other than votes attaching to securities beneficially owned by related persons to whom securities may be issued as compensation or under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

The term “related person” is defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions and generally refers to a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer, an associate of a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer, or a permitted assign of a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer. The term “permitted assign” includes a spouse of the person.

The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan provides flexibility to PreveCeutical to grant equity-based incentive awards in the form of PreveCeutical Options, restricted share units (“RSUs”), performance share units (“PSUs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”), as described in further detail below. The purpose of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is to, among other things, provide PreveCeutical with a share related mechanism to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, officers, employees and consultants of PreveCeutical and to reward such of those directors, officers, employees and consultants as may be granted awards under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan by the PreveCeutical Board from time to time for their contributions toward the long-term goals and success of PreveCeutical and to enable and encourage such directors, employees and consultants to acquire PreveCeutical Shares as long-term investments and proprietary interests in PreveCeutical.

Key Terms of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

PreveCeutical Shares Subject to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is a rolling plan which, subject to the adjustment provisions provided for therein (including a subdivision or consolidation of PreveCeutical Shares), provides that the aggregate maximum number of PreveCeutical Shares that may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of awards granted under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan shall not exceed 20% of PreveCeutical’s issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Shares from time to time. The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is considered an “evergreen” plan, since the PreveCeutical Shares covered by awards which have been exercised, settled or terminated shall be available for subsequent grants under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and the number of awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Shares increases.


  • 52 -

Administration of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

The Plan Administrator (as defined in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan) is determined by the PreveCeutical Board, and is initially the PreveCeutical Board. The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan may in the future continue to be administered by the PreveCeutical Board itself or delegated to a committee of the PreveCeutical Board. The Plan Administrator determines which directors, officers, consultants and employees are eligible to receive awards under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the time or times at which awards may be granted, the conditions under which awards may be granted or forfeited to PreveCeutical, the number of PreveCeutical Shares to be covered by any award, the exercise price of any award, whether restrictions or limitations are to be imposed on the PreveCeutical Shares issuable pursuant to grants of any award, and the nature of any such restrictions or limitations, any acceleration of exercisability or vesting, or waiver of termination regarding any award, based on such factors as the Plan Administrator may determine.

In addition, the Plan Administrator interprets the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and may adopt guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, and make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

Eligibility

All directors, officers, employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The extent to which any such individual is entitled to receive a grant of an award pursuant to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Plan Administrator.

Types of Awards

Awards of PreveCeutical Options, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs may be made under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. All of the awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement and forfeiture provisions determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, subject to such limitations provided in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, and will generally be evidenced by an award agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and in accordance with applicable law, the Plan Administrator may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of awards, cancel or modify outstanding awards, and waive any condition imposed with respect to awards or PreveCeutical Shares issued pursuant to awards.

PreveCeutical Options

A PreveCeutical Option entitles a holder thereof to purchase a prescribed number of treasury PreveCeutical Shares at an exercise price set at the time of the grant. The Plan Administrator will establish the exercise price at the time each PreveCeutical Option is granted, which exercise price must in all cases be the greater of the closing market price of the PreveCeutical Shares on (i) the trading day prior to the date of grant and (ii) the date of grant, and as otherwise required pursuant to the policies of the any stock exchange on which the PreveCeutical Shares are listed (the "Market Price"), unless otherwise permitted by applicable securities laws or the policies of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, each PreveCeutical Option expires on its respective expiry date, provided such expiry date does not exceed 10 years. The Plan Administrator will have the authority to determine the vesting terms applicable to grants of PreveCeutical Options. Once an PreveCeutical Option becomes vested, it shall remain vested and shall be exercisable until expiration or termination of the Option, unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator or as otherwise set forth in any written employment agreement, award agreement or other written agreement between PreveCeutical or a subsidiary of PreveCeutical and the participant. The Plan Administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any PreveCeutical Option becomes exercisable. The Plan Administrator may provide at the time of granting an PreveCeutical Option that the exercise of that PreveCeutical Option is subject to restrictions, in addition to those


  • 53 -

specified in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, such as vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified performance goals.

Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of granting a PreveCeutical Option and set forth in the particular award agreement, an exercise notice must be accompanied by payment of the exercise price. Subject to the policies of any stock exchange on which the PreveCeutical Shares are listed, a participant may, in lieu of exercising a PreveCeutical Option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such PreveCeutical Option to PreveCeutical (a “Cashless Exercise”) in consideration for an amount from PreveCeutical equal to (i) the Market Price of the PreveCeutical Shares issuable on the exercise of such PreveCeutical Option (or portion thereof) as of the date such PreveCeutical Option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the PreveCeutical Option (or portion thereof) surrendered relating to such Shares (the “In-the-Money Amount”) by written notice to PreveCeutical indicating the number of PreveCeutical Options such participant wishes to exercise using the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that PreveCeutical may require. Subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and the policies of any stock exchange on which the PreveCeutical Shares are listed, PreveCeutical will satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the participant such number of PreveCeutical Shares having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.

Restricted Share Units

An RSU is a unit equivalent in value to a PreveCeutical Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of PreveCeutical which entitles the holder to receive one PreveCeutical Share (or the value thereof) for each RSU after a specified vesting period. The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant RSUs to any participant in respect of a bonus or similar payment in respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a taxation year (the “RSU Service Year”).

The number of RSUs (including fractional RSUs) granted at any particular time under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan will be calculated by dividing (a) the amount of any bonus or similar payment that is to be paid in RSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator, by (b) the greater of (i) the Market Price of a PreveCeutical Share on the date of grant and (ii) such amount as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine any vesting terms applicable to the grant of RSUs, provided that the terms comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, to the extent applicable.

Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested RSU for the following at the election of such holder but subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator: (a) one fully paid and non-assessable PreveCeutical Share in respect of each vested RSU, (b) a cash payment or (c) a combination of PreveCeutical Shares and cash. Any such cash payments made by PreveCeutical shall be calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per PreveCeutical Share as at the settlement date. Subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, no settlement date for any RSU shall occur, and no PreveCeutical Share shall be issued or cash payment shall be made in respect of any RSU any later than the final business day of the third calendar year following the applicable RSU Service Year.

Performance Share Units

A PSU is a unit equivalent in value to a PreveCeutical Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of PreveCeutical, which entitles the holder to receive one PreveCeutical Share (or the value thereof) for each PSU after specific performance-based vesting criteria determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, have been satisfied. The performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any PSUs granted, the effect of termination of a participant’s service and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any PSU will be determined by the Plan Administrator and by the other terms and conditions of any PSU, all as set forth in the applicable award agreement. The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and such other terms and


  • 54 -

conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant PSUs to any participant in respect of a bonus or similar payment in respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a taxation year (the "PSU Service Year").

The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine any vesting terms applicable to the grant of PSUs. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested PSU for the following at the election of such holder but subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator: (a) one fully paid and non-assessable PreveCeutical Share in respect of each vested PSU, (b) a cash payment or (c) a combination of PreveCeutical Shares and cash. Any such cash payments made by PreveCeutical to a participant shall be calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per PreveCeutical Share as at the settlement date. Subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, no settlement date for any PSU shall occur, and no Share shall be issued or cash payment shall be made in respect of any PSU any later than the final business day of the third calendar year following the applicable PSU Service Year.

Deferred Share Units

A DSU is a unit equivalent in value to a PreveCeutical Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of PreveCeutical which entitles the holder to receive one PreveCeutical Share (or, at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, the cash value thereof) for each DSU on a future date. The PreveCeutical Board may fix from time to time a portion of the total compensation (including annual retainer) paid by PreveCeutical to a director in a calendar year for service on the PreveCeutical Board (the "Director Fees") that are to be payable in the form of DSUs. In addition, each director is given, subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the right to elect to receive a portion of the cash Director Fees owing to them in the form of DSUs.

Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular award agreement, DSUs shall vest immediately upon grant. The number of DSUs (including fractional DSUs) granted at any particular time will be calculated by dividing (a) the amount of Director Fees that are to be paid in DSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator, by (b) the Market Price of a PreveCeutical Share on the date of grant. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested DSU for: (a) one fully paid and non-assessable PreveCeutical Share issued from treasury in respect of each vested DSU, or (b) at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, a cash payment on the date of settlement. Any cash payments made under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan by PreveCeutical to a participant in respect of DSUs to be redeemed for cash shall be calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per Share as at the settlement date.

Dividend Equivalents

Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular award agreement, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs shall be credited with dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as applicable, as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on PreveCeutical Shares. Dividend equivalents shall vest in proportion to, and settle in the same manner as, the awards to which they relate. Such dividend equivalents shall be computed by dividing: (a) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid per PreveCeutical Share by the number of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as applicable, held by the participant on the record date for the payment of such dividend, by (b) the Market Price at the close of the first business day immediately following the dividend record date, with fractions computed to three decimal places.

Black-out Periods

In the event an award expires, at a time when a scheduled blackout is in place or an undisclosed material change or material fact in the affairs of PreveCeutical exists, the expiry of such award will be the date that is 10 business days after which such scheduled blackout terminates or there is no longer such undisclosed material change or material fact.


  • 55 -

Term

While the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan does not stipulate a specific term for awards granted thereunder, as discussed below, awards may not expire beyond 10 years from its date of grant, except where shareholder approval is received or where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period of PreveCeutical. All awards must vest and settle in accordance with the provisions of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and any applicable award agreement, which award agreement may include an expiry date for a specific award.

Termination of Employment or Services

The following table describes the impact of certain events upon the participants under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, including termination for cause, resignation, termination without cause, disability, death or retirement, subject, in each case, to the terms of a participant's applicable employment agreement, award agreement or other written agreement:

Any vested PreveCeutical Option may be exercised by the participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the expiry date of such PreveCeutical Option; and (B) the third anniversary of the participant’s date of retirement. If a PreveCeutical Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (A) or (B), the PreveCeutical Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested award other than a PreveCeutical Option that is described in (i), such award will be settled within 90 days after the participant’s retirement. In the case of any other vested award that is described in (ii), such award will be settled at the same time the award would otherwise have been settled had the participant remained in active service with PreveCeutical or its subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following his or her retirement, the participant commences (the “Commencement Date”) employment, consulting or acting as a director or otherwise as a service provider to any person that carries on or proposes to carry on a business competitive with PreveCeutical or any of its subsidiaries, any PreveCeutical Option or other award held by the participant that has not been exercised or settled as of the Commencement Date shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Commencement Date.

Change in Control

Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, if, as a result of a Change in Control, the PreveCeutical Shares will cease trading on the CSE, PreveCeutical may terminate all of the awards, other than a PreveCeutical Option held by a participant that is a resident of Canada for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), granted under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan at the time of and subject to the completion of the Change in Control transaction by paying to each holder at or within a reasonable period of time following completion of such Change in Control transaction an amount for each Award equal to the fair market value of the Award held by such participant as determined by the Plan Administrator, acting reasonably, provided that any vested awards granted to U.S. Taxpayers (as defined in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan) will be settled within 90 days of the Change in Control.

Subject to certain exceptions, a “Change in Control” includes (a) any transaction pursuant to which a person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding PreveCeutical Shares, (b) the sale of all or substantially all of PreveCeutical’s assets, (c) the dissolution or liquidation of PreveCeutical, (d) the acquisition of PreveCeutical via consolidation, merger, exchange of securities, purchase of assets, amalgamation, statutory arrangement or otherwise, (e) individuals who comprise the PreveCeutical Board at the last annual meeting of shareholders (the “Incumbent Board”) cease to constitute at least a majority of the PreveCeutical Board, unless the election, or nomination for election by the shareholders, of any new director was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Board, in which case such new director shall be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board, or (f) any other event which the PreveCeutical Board determines to constitute a change in control of PreveCeutical.

Non-Transferability of Awards

Except as permitted by the Plan Administrator and to the extent that certain rights may pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon death of a participant, by will or as required by law, no assignment or transfer of awards, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, vests any interest or right in such awards whatsoever in any assignee or transferee and immediately upon any assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, such awards will terminate and be of no further force or effect. To the extent that certain rights to exercise any portion of an outstanding award pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon the death of a participant,


  • 57 -

the period in which such award can be exercised by such beneficiary or legal representative shall not exceed one year from the participant's death.

Amendments to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

The Plan Administrator may also from time to time, without notice and without approval of the holders of voting Shares, amend, modify, change, suspend or terminate Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan or any awards granted pursuant thereto as it, in its discretion, determines appropriate, provided that (a) no such amendment, modification, change, suspension or termination of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan or any award granted pursuant thereto may materially impair any rights of a participant or materially increase any obligations of a participant under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan without the consent of such participant, unless the Plan Administrator determines such adjustment is required or desirable in order to comply with any applicable securities laws or stock exchange requirements, and (b) any amendment that would cause an award held by a U.S. Taxpayer to be subject to the income inclusion under Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code, as amended, shall be null and void ab initio.

Notwithstanding the above, and subject to the rules of any applicable stock exchange, the approval of PreveCeutical Shareholders is required to effect any of the following amendments to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan:

(a) increasing the number of PreveCeutical Shares reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, except pursuant to the provisions in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting PreveCeutical or its capital;

(b) reducing the exercise price of an option award except pursuant to the provisions in the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting PreveCeutical or its capital;

(c) extending the term of a PreveCeutical Option award beyond the original expiry date (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period applicable to the participant or within 10 business days following the expiry of such a blackout period);

(d) permitting a PreveCeutical Option award to be exercisable beyond 10 years from its date of grant (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period);

(e) changing the eligible participants; and

(f) deleting or otherwise limiting the amendments that require approval of the PreveCeutical Shareholders.

Except for the items listed above, amendments to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan will not require shareholder approval. Such amendments include (but are not limited to): (a) amending the general vesting provisions of an award, (b) amending the provisions for early termination of awards in connection with a termination of employment or service, (c) adding covenants of PreveCeutical for the protection of the participants, (d) amendments that are desirable as a result of changes in law in any jurisdiction where a participant resides, and (e) curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error.

Anti-Hedging Policy

Participants are restricted from purchasing financial instruments such as prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of awards granted to them.

Approval of Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

At the Meeting, PreveCeutical Shareholders will be asked to pass an ordinary resolution to ratify, confirm and approve the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan which was adopted by the PreveCeutical Board on September 9, 2025. An ordinary resolution needs to be passed by a simple majority of the votes cast by the PreveCeutical Shareholders, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting, other than votes attaching to securities beneficially owned by related persons to whom securities may be issued as compensation or under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

The term "related person" is defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions and generally refers to a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer, an associate of a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer, or a permitted assign of a director or executive officer of the issuer or of a related entity of the issuer. The term "permitted assign" includes a spouse of the person.

As of the date of this Information Circular, to PreveCeutical's knowledge, the directors and officers of PreveCeutical owned an aggregate of 91,163,000 PreveCeutical Shares.

A copy of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is attached as Schedule "M" to this Information Circular. A copy of the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan is also available free of charge at the registered and records office of PreveCeutical, 2500 – 885 Cambie Street, Vancouver, BC V6B 0R6, during normal business hours up to and including the date of the Meeting.

Accordingly, at the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve the following ordinary resolutions (the "Plan Resolution"):

"RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution of the shareholders of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. ("PreveCeutical"), other than votes attaching to securities beneficially owned by related persons (as such term is defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions) to whom securities may be issued as compensation or under PreveCeutical's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, that:

  1. PreveCeutical's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") described in PreveCeutical's information circular dated September 9, 2025 (the "Circular"), including the reservation for issuance under the Plan at any time of a maximum of 20% of the issued common shares of PreveCeutical, be and is hereby ratified, confirmed and approved;

  3. The Company shall seek shareholder approval of the Plan by no later than October 10, 2028, or such other date that is no longer than three years from the date that this resolution is approved;

  4. The board of directors of PreveCeutical be authorized in its absolute discretion to administer the Plan and amend or modify the Plan in accordance with its terms and conditions and with the policies of the applicable stock exchange; and


  • 59 -

  • Any one director or officer of PreveCeutical be and is hereby authorized and directed to do all such acts and things and to execute and deliver, under the corporate seal of PreveCeutical or otherwise, all such deeds, documents, instruments and assurances as in his opinion may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the foregoing resolutions, including, without limitation, making any changes to the Plan required by the applicable stock exchange or applicable securities regulatory authorities and to complete all transactions in connection with the administration of the Plan."

The form of the Plan Resolution set forth above is subject to such amendments as management of PreveCeutical may propose at the Meeting, but which do not materially affect the substance of the Plan Resolution.

It is the intention of the Designated Persons named in the enclosed form of proxy, if not expressly directed otherwise in such form of proxy, to vote such proxy FOR the Plan Resolution.

Rectification of Failure to Comply with Company Act

PreveCeutical is also seeking approval from the PreveCeutical Shareholders authorizing PreveCeutical to make application to the Court pursuant to Section 229 of BCBCA, for rectification of any omissions, defects, errors or irregularities that have occurred in the conduct of the business or affairs of PreveCeutical. Specifically, PreveCeutical seeks to rectify its failure to hold an annual general meeting for the 2023 and 2024 calendar years and, in connection therewith, to distribute interim and annual financial statements. Shareholder approval of this resolution will assist PreveCeutical in obtaining the necessary order from the Court.

At the Meeting, PreveCeutical Shareholders will be asked to approve the following ordinary resolution (the "Rectification Resolution"), which must be approved by at least a majority of the votes cast by PreveCeutical Shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the Meeting who vote in respect of the Rectification Resolution:

"RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution of the PreveCeutical Shareholders of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. ("PreveCeutical"), that:

  1. PreveCeutical be and is hereby authorized to make application pursuant to Section 229 of the Business Corporations Act to the Supreme Court of British Columbia for rectification of any omissions, defects, errors or irregularities that have occurred in the conduct of the business or affairs of PreveCeutical, specifically the failure of PreveCeutical to hold an annual general meeting for the 2023 and 2024 calendar years and, in connection therewith, distribute interim and annual financial statements;

  2. Any director or officer of PreveCeutical be and is hereby authorized to prepare, execute on behalf of PreveCeutical, as required, and file any and all documents necessary to make the application to the Supreme Court of British Columbia and to take any and all such other actions and complete and execute any and all such other documents as may be required to carry out the intent and purpose of these resolutions; and

  3. The board of directors of PreveCeutical is hereby authorized, at any time in its sole discretion, to determine whether or not to proceed with this resolution without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the PreveCeutical Shareholders."

The form of the Rectification Resolution set forth above is subject to such amendments as management of PreveCeutical may propose at the Meeting, but which do not materially affect the substance of the Rectification Resolution.


  • 60 -

Management of PreveCeutical recommends that PreveCeutical Shareholders vote in favour of the Rectification Resolution. It is the intention of the Designated Persons named in the enclosed form of proxy, if not expressly directed otherwise in such form of proxy, to vote such proxy FOR the Rectification Resolution.

Special Resolution to Approve the Arrangement

The Arrangement will become effective on the Effective Date, subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions. The disclosure of the principal features of the Arrangement among PreveCeutical, the PreveCeutical Shareholders and BioGene, as summarized below, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, which is available under PreveCeutical's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Reasons for the Arrangement

PreveCeutical believes that the Arrangement is in the best interests of PreveCeutical for numerous reasons, including:

(a) PreveCeutical Shareholders will benefit by holding shares in two separate companies;

(b) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to focus on their own strategic opportunities;

(c) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to retain, motivate and recruit key personnel more effectively;

(d) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to maintain different and appropriate capital structure and dividend policies;

(e) each of PreveCeutical and BioGene will be able to develop its own focused investor basis;

(f) it will allow management of each business to focus solely on that business;

(g) the Fairness Opinion delivered to the PreveCeutical Board, to the effect that, as of September 3, 2025, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Securityholders; and

(h) separating PreveCeutical and BioGene will expand BioGene's potential shareholder base and access to capital for research, development and clinical trials by allowing investors that want specific ownership in the particular business of BioGene the opportunity to invest directly in BioGene rather than through PreveCeutical.

In the course of its deliberations, the PreveCeutical Board also identified and considered a variety of risks and potentially negative factors, including, but not limited to, the risks set out under "Approval of the Arrangement – Arrangement Risk Factors".

The foregoing discussion summarizes the material information and factors considered by the PreveCeutical Board in their consideration of the Plan of Arrangement. The PreveCeutical Board collectively reached its unanimous decision with respect to the Plan of Arrangement in light of the factors described above and other factors that each member of the PreveCeutical Board felt were appropriate. In view of the wide variety of factors and the quality and amount of information considered, the PreveCeutical Board did not find it useful or practicable to, and did not make specific assessments of, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. Individual members of the PreveCeutical Board may have given different weight to different factors.

Fairness Opinion

Evans & Evans, Inc. was retained by PreveCeutical to provide the Fairness Opinion, regarding the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Arrangement to the Securityholders. Based upon and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, Evans & Evans, Inc. is of the opinion that, as of September 3, 2025 the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Securityholders.

After careful consideration, including a thorough review of the information and the Fairness Opinion delivered by Evans & Evans, Inc., a thorough review of the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, and taking into account the best interests of PreveCeutical and the impact on PreveCeutical's stakeholders, and consultation with its professional advisors, the PreveCeutical Board unanimously resolved: (i) that the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical Shareholders and is in the best interests of PreveCeutical; and (ii) to approve the Arrangement and to recommend that PreveCeutical Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution. PreveCeutical issued a press release announcing the proposed Arrangement on June 25, 2025. The Fairness Opinion is attached as Schedule "K" to this Information Circular.

(b) the authorized share structure of PreveCeutical shall be altered by:

(i) renaming and redesignating all of the issued and unissued PreveCeutical Shares as "Class A common shares without par value" and amending the special rights and restrictions attached to those shares to provide the holders thereof with two votes in respect of each share held, being the "PreveCeutical Class A Shares", and

(ii) creating a new class consisting of an unlimited number of "common shares without par value" with terms and special rights and restrictions identical to those of the PreveCeutical Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time, being the "New PreveCeutical Shares";

(c) PreveCeutical's Notice of Articles shall be amended to reflect the alterations in Section (b) above;

(d) each issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Share outstanding on the Share Distribution Record Date shall be exchanged for: (i) one New PreveCeutical Share; and (ii) such number of BioGene Spinout Shares equal to one (1) multiplied by the Distribution Fraction, the holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be removed from the central securities register of PreveCeutical as the holders of such and will be added to the central securities register of PreveCeutical as the holders of the number of New PreveCeutical Shares that they have received on the exchange set forth in Section 3.1(g) of the Plan of Arrangement, and the BioGene Spinout Shares transferred to the then holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be registered in the name of the former holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares and PreveCeutical will provide BioGene and its registrar

and transfer agent notice to make the appropriate entries in the central securities register of BioGene;

(e) the PreveCeutical Class A Shares, none of which will be issued or outstanding once the exchange in Section 3.1(g) of the Plan of Arrangement is completed, will be cancelled and the appropriate entries made in the central securities register of PreveCeutical and the authorized share structure of PreveCeutical will be amended by eliminating the PreveCeutical Class A Shares, and the aggregate paid-up capital (as that term is used for purposes of the Tax Act) of the New PreveCeutical Shares will be equal to that of the PreveCeutical Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time less the fair market value of the BioGene Spinout Shares distributed pursuant to Section 3.1(g) of the Plan of Arrangement;

(f) the BioGene Spinout Shares will be subject to the Escrow Restrictions;

(g) each PreveCeutical Option then outstanding to acquire one PreveCeutical Share shall be transferred and exchanged for one PreveCeutical Replacement Option to acquire one New PreveCeutical Share having an exercise price equal to the original exercise price of the PreveCeutical Option; and

(h) each PreveCeutical Warrant then outstanding shall be deemed to be amended to entitle the PreveCeutical Warrantholder to receive, upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant, for the exercise price, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions set out in the certificate representing the PreveCeutical Warrants, one New PreveCeutical Share for each PreveCeutical Share that was issuable upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Effect of the Arrangement

As a result of the Arrangement, PreveCeutical Shareholders will no longer hold their PreveCeutical Shares and instead, will receive one New PreveCeutical Share and such number of BioGene Share equal to one (1) multiplied by the Distribution Fraction for every one PreveCeutical Share held at the Effective Time, and as a result, will hold shares in two companies. It is anticipated that BioGene will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions, and will have obtained conditional approval to list the BioGene Shares on the CSE.

BioGene Spinout Shares

Treatment of PreveCeutical Warrants

Each PreveCeutical Warrant then outstanding shall be deemed to be amended to entitle the PreveCeutical Warrantholder to receive, upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant, for the exercise price, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions set out in the certificate representing the PreveCeutical Warrants, one New PreveCeutical Share for each PreveCeutical Share that was issuable upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Directors and Officers of BioGene

The BioGene Board will be comprised of Stepehen Van Deventer, Chairperson, Deepak Sampath, Steve Glover and Patroski J Lawson. Executive management of BioGene will consist of Stephen Van Deventer, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Alex McAuly, Chief Financial Officer. BioGene may add individuals to the BioGene Board and management to ensure BioGene has the appropriate amount of local knowledge and skill sets to advance the BioGene Business. Any common directors on the BioGene Board and the PreveCeutical Board are not expected to be subject to any conflicts of interest. See "BioGene Therapeutics Inc. – Directors and Officers" in this Information Circular.

Recommendation of the Directors

The PreveCeutical Board has reviewed the terms and conditions of the Arrangement Agreement and has concluded that the Arrangement is fair and reasonable to the Securityholders and is in the best interests of PreveCeutical. In arriving at this conclusion, the PreveCeutical Board considered, among other matters:

  1. the financial condition, business and operations of PreveCeutical, on both a historical and prospective basis;
  2. the Fairness Opinion of Evans & Evans, Inc. provided to the PreveCeutical Board to the effect that, as of September 3, 2025, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Securityholders;
  3. the procedures by which the Arrangement is to be approved, including the requirement for approval of the Arrangement by the Court after a hearing at which fairness to Securityholders will be considered;
  4. the availability of Dissent Rights to Registered Holders with respect to the Arrangement;
  5. the assets to be held by each of and the ongoing business to be conducted by each of PreveCeutical and BioGene after completion of the Arrangement;
  6. historical information regarding the price of the PreveCeutical Shares;
  7. the tax treatment to PreveCeutical Shareholders under the Arrangement; and
  8. that the PreveCeutical Shareholders will own securities of two companies.

  • 64 -

The PreveCeutical Board did not assign a relative weight to each specific factor and each director may have given different weights to different factors. Based on its review of all the factors, the PreveCeutical Board considers the Arrangement to be advantageous to PreveCeutical and fair and reasonable to the PreveCeutical Shareholders. The PreveCeutical Board also identified disadvantages associated with the Arrangement including the fact that there will be the additional costs associated with running two companies and there is no assurance that the proposed Arrangement will result in positive benefits to PreveCeutical Shareholders. See “Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement – Arrangement Risk Factors”, “PreveCeutical Medical Inc. – Risk Factors” and “BioGene Therapeutics Inc. – Risk Factors”.

Pursuant to an agreement dated as of June 10, 2025, Evans & Evans, Inc. was retained by the PreveCeutical Board to, among other things, deliver the Fairness Opinion as to the fairness of distribution of the BioGene Spinout Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical Shareholders. On September 3, 2025, Evans & Evans, Inc. delivered to the PreveCeutical Board its opinion that, on the basis of the particular assumptions and limitations set forth therein, as of such date, the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Securityholders.

Evans & Evans, Inc. was paid a fee by PreveCeutical for its services which was not contingent on the successful outcome of the Arrangement and will be reimbursed of all reasonable legal and out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, Evans & Evans, Inc. and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons are to be indemnified by PreveCeutical under certain circumstances from and against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of professional services rendered to PreveCeutical. The Fairness Opinion has been provided solely for the use of the PreveCeutical Board for the purposes of considering the Arrangement and may not be used or relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose without the prior written consent of Evans & Evans, Inc. The Fairness Opinion is not to be construed as a valuation of PreveCeutical, or any of their respective assets, securities or liabilities (whether on a standalone basis or as a combined entity). The Fairness Opinion does not constitute a recommendation as to whether or not PreveCeutical Shareholders should vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution or any other matter. The Fairness Opinion is one of a number of factors taken into account by the PreveCeutical Board in approving the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement.

The Arrangement Resolution is set out in Schedule “A” to this Information Circular. In order to be approved, the Arrangement Resolution requires the votes in favour of two-thirds of the votes cast at the Meeting.

The PreveCeutical Board recommends that the PreveCeutical Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution. Each director and officer of PreveCeutical who owns PreveCeutical Shares has indicated his or her intention to vote his or her PreveCeutical Shares in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.

Arrangement Risk Factors

PreveCeutical and BioGene should each be considered as highly speculative investments and the transactions contemplated herein should be considered of a high-risk nature. PreveCeutical Shareholders should carefully consider all of the information disclosed in this Information Circular prior to voting on the matters being put before them at the Meeting.

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, certain of which are outside the control of PreveCeutical and BioGene, including receipt of PreveCeutical Shareholder approval at the Meeting and receipt of the Final Order. There can be no certainty, nor can PreveCeutical or BioGene provide any assurance, that these conditions will be satisfied or, if satisfied, when they will be satisfied.

In addition to the other information presented in this Information Circular (without limitation, see also “PreveCeutical Medical Inc. – Risk Factors” and “BioGene Therapeutics Inc. – Risk Factors”), the following risk factors should be given special consideration:


  • 65 -

  • The trading price of PreveCeutical Shares on the Effective Date may vary from the price as at the date of execution of the Arrangement Agreement, the date of this Information Circular and the date of the Meeting and may fluctuate depending on investors' perceptions of the merits of the Arrangement.

  • The number of BioGene Spinout Shares being issued in connection with the Arrangement will not change despite decreases or increases in the market price of the PreveCeutical Shares. Many of the factors that affect the market price of the PreveCeutical Shares are beyond the control of PreveCeutical. These factors include fluctuations in commodity prices, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, changes in the regulatory environment, adverse political developments, prevailing conditions in the capital markets and interest rate fluctuations.

  • There is no assurance that the Arrangement will be completed.

  • There is no assurance that the Arrangement can be completed as proposed or without PreveCeutical Shareholders exercising their dissent rights in respect of a substantial number of PreveCeutical Shares.

  • There is no assurance that the businesses of PreveCeutical or BioGene, after completing the Arrangement, will be successful.

  • While PreveCeutical believes that the BioGene Spinout Shares to be distributed to PreveCeutical Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement will not be subject to any statutory resale restrictions save securities held by control persons and save for any restrictions flowing from current restrictions associated with a PreveCeutical Shareholder's PreveCeutical Shares and the Escrow Restrictions, there is no assurance that this is the case and each PreveCeutical Shareholder is urged to obtain appropriate legal advice regarding applicable securities legislation.

  • The transactions may give rise to significant adverse tax consequences to PreveCeutical Shareholders and each such PreveCeutical Shareholder is urged to consult his, her or its own tax advisor.

  • Certain costs related to the Arrangement, such as legal and accounting fees, must be paid by PreveCeutical even if the Arrangement is not completed.

  • If the Arrangement Resolution is not approved by the PreveCeutical Shareholders or, even if the Arrangement Resolution is approved, as a result of the BioGene Business being transferred to BioGene, an entity separate from PreveCeutical, the market price of the PreveCeutical Shares may decline to the extent that the current market price of the PreveCeutical Shares reflects a market assumption that the Plan of Arrangement will be completed or to the extent the current market price of the PreveCeutical Shares reflects the value associated with the BioGene Business, as applicable.

Effects of the Arrangement on PreveCeutical Shareholders' Rights

As a result of the Arrangement, PreveCeutical Shareholders will continue to be shareholders of PreveCeutical and will also be shareholders of BioGene. Shareholders of will continue to have the rights afforded to them under the BCBCA.

Conduct of Meeting and Other Approvals

Shareholder Approval of the Arrangement

In order to become effective, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by a Special Resolution.

Court Approval of the Arrangement

Under the BCBCA, PreveCeutical is required to obtain the approval of the Court to the calling and holding of the Meeting and to the Arrangement. PreveCeutical obtained an Interim Order on September 9, 2025, providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting and other procedural matters. A copy of the Interim Order is appended as Schedule "C" to this Information Circular. The Court hearing in respect of the Final Order is scheduled to take place at 9:45 A.M. (Vancouver time) on or about October 16, 2025, following the Meeting or as soon thereafter as the Court may direct or counsel for PreveCeutical may be heard at the Courthouse, 800 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, subject to the approval of the Arrangement Resolution at the Meeting. Securityholders who wish to participate in or be represented at the Court hearing should consult with their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements.

At the Court hearing, any Securityholders who wish to participate or to be represented or to present evidence or argument may do so, subject to the rules of the Court. Although the authority of the Court is very broad under the BCBCA, the Court will consider, among other things, the procedural and substantive fairness and reasonableness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and the rights and interests of every person affected. The Court may approve the Arrangement as proposed or as amended in any manner as the Court may direct. The Court's approval is required for the Arrangement to become effective. In addition, it is a condition of the Arrangement that the Court will have determined, prior to approving the Final Order, that the terms and conditions of the issuance of securities comprising the Arrangement are procedurally and substantively fair to the PreveCeutical Securityholders.

Subject to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and provided that the Arrangement has been approved by the PreveCeutical Shareholders in the manner required by the Interim Order, PreveCeutical will make application for the Final Order at 9:45 a.m. (Vancouver time) on or about October 16, 2025 at the Courthouse, 800 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. Any Securityholder who wishes to appear and make submissions at such hearing (either in person or by counsel) must serve and file written notice with the Court of his or her intention to appear (a "Response to Petition"), as set out in the Notice of Hearing attached as Schedule "I" to this Information Circular. The Notice of Hearing provides that a Securityholder who wishes to appear and make submissions at such hearing must deliver a copy of the Response to Petition, together with a copy of all materials upon which the Securityholder intends to present to the Court, to PreveCeutical's solicitors (at the address set out in the Notice of Hearing) on or before 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on October 3, 2025 or as provided in the Interim Order. In the event the hearing is postponed, adjourned or rescheduled, only those persons having previously served a Response to Petition in compliance with the Notice of Hearing and the Interim Order will be provided notice of the postponement, adjournment or rescheduled date.

Regulatory Approvals

In order to become effective, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by a Special Resolution. Final regulatory approval must be obtained for all the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement before the Arrangement may proceed.

The PreveCeutical Shares are currently listed and posted for trading on the CSE. PreveCeutical is a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions. Approval from the CSE is required for the completion of the Arrangement, including listing of the New PreveCeutical Shares in substitution for the PreveCeutical Shares. Upon completion of the Arrangement, it is expected that BioGene will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions.


  • 67 -

PreveCeutical Shareholders should be aware that certain of the foregoing approvals, including a determination that BioGene will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions, have not yet been received from the regulatory authorities referred to above. There is no assurance that such approvals will be obtained.

Procedure for Receipt of New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Shares

PreveCeutical Shareholders on the Share Distribution Record Date will be entitled to receive New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares pursuant to the Arrangement.

Each registered PreveCeutical Shareholder will receive a Letter of Transmittal containing instructions with respect to the deposit of certificates for PreveCeutical Shares for use in exchanging their PreveCeutical Shares for Certificates or DRS statements representing New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares, to which they are entitled under the Arrangement. Upon return of a properly completed Letter of Transmittal, together with certificates formerly representing PreveCeutical Shares and such other documents as the Depositary may require, certificates or DRS statements for the appropriate number of New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares will be distributed.

Fees and Expenses

PreveCeutical will pay the costs, fees and expenses of the Arrangement.

Effective Date of Arrangement

If:

(a) the Arrangement Resolution is approved by Special Resolution;
(b) the Final Order of the Court is obtained approving the Arrangement;
(c) the required CSE approvals to the completion of the Arrangement are obtained;
(d) every requirement of the BCBCA relating to the Arrangement has been complied with; and
(e) all other conditions disclosed under "Arrangement Agreement – Conditions to the Arrangement Becoming Effective" are met or waived,

The full particulars of the Arrangement are contained in the Plan of Arrangement attached as Exhibit A to the Arrangement Agreement attached as Schedule “B” to this Information Circular. See also “Arrangement Agreement” below.

Notwithstanding receipt of the above approvals, PreveCeutical may abandon the Arrangement without further approval from the PreveCeutical Shareholders.

Arrangement Agreement

The Arrangement will be carried out pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA and will be effected in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, the Interim Order and the Final Order. The steps of the Arrangement, as set out in the Arrangement Agreement, are summarized under "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon – Approval of the Arrangement – Principal Steps of the Arrangement" herein.


  • 68 -

The general description of the Arrangement Agreement which follows is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Schedule "B" to this Information Circular.

General

On September 3, 2025, PreveCeutical and BioGene entered into the Arrangement Agreement which includes the Plan of Arrangement. The Plan of Arrangement is reproduced at Schedule "A" to the Arrangement Agreement, as set out in Schedule "B" to this Information Circular. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, PreveCeutical and BioGene agree to effect the Arrangement under Part 5, Division 5 of the BCBCA on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Arrangement Agreement.

In the Arrangement Agreement, PreveCeutical and BioGene provide representations and warranties to one another regarding certain customary commercial matters, including corporate, legal and other matters, relating to their respective affairs.

Under the Arrangement Agreement, PreveCeutical agrees to call the Meeting for the purpose of, among other matters, the PreveCeutical Shareholders approving the Arrangement Resolution, and that, if the approval of the PreveCeutical Shareholders of the Arrangement Resolution as set forth in the Interim Order is obtained by PreveCeutical, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, PreveCeutical will take the necessary steps to submit the Arrangement to the Court and apply for the Final Order.

Conditions to the Arrangement Becoming Effective

The respective obligations of PreveCeutical and BioGene to complete the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement are subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Effective Date, of a number of conditions precedent, certain of which may only be waived in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement. The mutual conditions precedent, among others, are as follows:

(a) the Interim Order shall have been granted in form and substance satisfactory to PreveCeutical;

(b) the Arrangement Resolution, with or without amendment, shall have been approved and adopted at the Meeting in accordance with the Arrangement Provisions, the Constating Documents of PreveCeutical, the Interim Order and the requirements of any applicable regulatory authorities;

(c) the Arrangement and the Arrangement Agreement, with or without amendment, shall have been approved by the shareholder of BioGene, to the extent required by, and in accordance with the application laws and the Constating Documents of BioGene;

(d) the Final Order shall have been obtained in form and substance satisfactory to each of PreveCeutical and BioGene;

(e) the CSE shall have conditionally approved the Arrangement, including the listing of the New PreveCeutical Shares issuable under the Arrangement in substitution for the PreveCeutical Class A Shares and the delisting of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares, as of the Effective Date, subject to compliance with the requirements of the CSE;

(f) all other consents, orders, regulations and approvals, including regulatory and judicial approvals and orders required or necessary or desirable for the completion of the transactions provided for in the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement shall have been obtained or received from the Persons, authorities or bodies having jurisdiction in the circumstances each in form acceptable to PreveCeutical and BioGene;


  • 69 -

(g) there shall not be in force any order or decree restraining or enjoining the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement;

(h) no law, regulation or policy shall have been proposed, enacted, promulgated or applied which interferes or is inconsistent with the completion of the Arrangement and Plan of Arrangement, including any material change to the income tax laws of Canada, which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any of PreveCeutical, the PreveCeutical Shareholders or BioGene if the Arrangement is completed;

(i) notices of dissent pursuant to Article 5 of the Plan of Arrangement shall not have been delivered by PreveCeutical Shareholders holding greater than 5% of the outstanding PreveCeutical Shares; and

(j) the Agreement shall not have been terminated under Article 6 of the Arrangement Agreement.

Amendment and Termination of Arrangement Agreement

Subject to any mandatory applicable restrictions under the Arrangement Provisions or the Final Order, the Arrangement Agreement, including the Plan of Arrangement, may at any time and from time to time before or after the holding of the Meeting, but prior to the Effective Date, be amended by the written agreement of PreveCeutical and BioGene without, subject to applicable law, further notice to or authorization on the part of the PreveCeutical Shareholders.

Subject to Section 6.2 of the Arrangement Agreement, the Arrangement Agreement may at any time before or after the holding of the Meeting, and before or after the granting of the Final Order, but in each case prior to the Effective Date, be terminated by direction of the PreveCeutical Board without further action on the part of the PreveCeutical Shareholders and nothing expressed or implied herein or in the Plan of Arrangement shall be construed as fettering the absolute discretion by the PreveCeutical Board to elect to terminate the Agreement and discontinue efforts to effect the Arrangement for whatever reasons it may consider appropriate.

Arrangement Resolution

PreveCeutical Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to vote on the Arrangement Resolution, the text of which is set out in Schedule "A" to this Information Circular. The Arrangement Resolution must be approved by a Special Resolution in order to become effective.

Notwithstanding the above, the Arrangement Resolution confers discretionary authority on the PreveCeutical Board to revoke the Arrangement Resolution before the Effective Date. The PreveCeutical Board may exercise its discretion and elect not to proceed with the Arrangement, notwithstanding PreveCeutical Shareholder approval, for any number of reasons, including, for example, the number of Registered Holders that dissent in respect of the Arrangement Resolution.

Accordingly, the PreveCeutical Board and Management are recommending that PreveCeutical Shareholders vote FOR the approval of the Arrangement Resolution. PreveCeutical Shareholder proxies received in favour of management will be voted FOR the approval of the Arrangement Resolution, unless a PreveCeutical Shareholder has specified in the proxy that such PreveCeutical Shares are to be voted against the Arrangement Resolution.

RIGHTS OF DISSENTING PREVECEUTICAL SHAREHOLDERS

The following description of the right to dissent to which Registered Shareholders are entitled is not a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a Dissenting Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of their PreveCeutical Shares, and is qualified in its entirety by the reference to the full text of Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA which is attached as Schedule "D" to this Information Circular.


  • 70 -

A Dissenting Shareholder who intends to exercise their Dissent Rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of the BCBCA. Failure to adhere to the procedures established therein may result in the loss of all rights thereunder. Accordingly, each Dissenting Shareholder who might desire to exercise Dissent Rights should consult their own legal advisor.

Subject to certain tests as described below, Dissenting Shareholders are entitled, in addition to any other right such Dissenting Shareholder may have, to dissent and to be paid the fair value of the PreveCeutical Shares held by such Dissenting Shareholder in respect of which such Dissenting Shareholder dissents, determined as of the close of business on the last Business Day before the day on which the Arrangement Resolution, was adopted.

A Dissenting Shareholder may dissent only with respect to all of the PreveCeutical Shares held by such Dissenting Shareholder or on behalf of any one beneficial owner and registered in the Dissenting Shareholder's name. Only Registered Shareholders may dissent. Persons who are beneficial owners of PreveCeutical Shares registered in the name of an Intermediary or other nominee who wish to dissent should be aware that they may only do so through the registered owner of such PreveCeutical Shares. A Registered Shareholder, such as a broker, who holds PreveCeutical Shares as nominee for beneficial holders, some of whom wish to dissent, must exercise the Dissent Rights on behalf of such beneficial owners with respect to all of the PreveCeutical Shares held for such beneficial owners. In such case, the demand for dissent should set forth the number of PreveCeutical Shares covered by it.

Dissenting Shareholders must provide a written objection to the Arrangement Resolution to PreveCeutical c/o Cozen O' Connor LLP, Suite 2501 - 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 2B5, Attention: Virgil Hlus, by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on October 8, 2025, being two Business Days immediately preceding the date of the Meeting, or at least two Business Days immediately preceding the date of any adjournment of the Meeting. No PreveCeutical Shareholder who has voted in favour of the Arrangement Resolution shall be entitled to dissent with respect to the Arrangement.

Upon proper notice of dissent having been provided to PreveCeutical, PreveCeutical and the Dissenting Shareholder may agree on an amount of the payout value of the PreveCeutical Shares held by the Dissenting Shareholder. In such event, PreveCeutical must promptly (i) pay the amount to the Dissenting Shareholder, or (ii) send a notice to the Dissenting Shareholder that PreveCeutical is unable to lawfully pay such amount as there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is insolvent or the payment would render it insolvent.

In the event that the Dissenting Shareholder and PreveCeutical cannot agree on a payout value for the PreveCeutical Shares, then either of the Dissenting Shareholder or PreveCeutical may apply to the Court and the Court may determine the payout value or order that the payout value be established by arbitration or by reference to the registrar or a referee of the Court and join in the application each Dissenting Shareholder, other than a Dissenting Shareholder who has entered into an agreement with PreveCeutical with respect to the payout value of their PreveCeutical Shares. Upon receipt of a Court or other order determining the amount of the payout value of the PreveCeutical Shares held by the Dissenting Shareholder, PreveCeutical must promptly (i) pay the amount to each Dissenting Shareholder governed by such Court or other order, or (ii) send a notice to the Dissenting Shareholders that PreveCeutical is unable to lawfully pay such amount as there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is insolvent or the payment would render it insolvent.

PreveCeutical must not make a payment to a Dissenting Shareholder under Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA if there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is insolvent or the payment would render it insolvent. In such event, PreveCeutical shall notify each Dissenting Shareholder that it is unable to lawfully pay Dissenting Shareholders for their PreveCeutical Shares, in which case the Dissenting Shareholder may, by written notice to PreveCeutical within 30 days after receipt of such notice, withdraw such holder's written objection, in which case the holder shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement as a PreveCeutical Shareholder. If the Dissenting Shareholder does not withdraw such holder's written objection, such Dissenting Shareholder retains status as a claimant against PreveCeutical, to be paid as soon as PreveCeutical is lawfully entitled to do so or, in a liquidation, to be ranked subordinate to the rights of creditors of PreveCeutical, but in priority to its shareholders.


  • 71 -

The above summary does not purport to provide a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by Dissenting Shareholders who seek payment of the fair value of their PreveCeutical Shares. Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA requires adherence to the procedures established therein and failure to do so may result in the loss of all rights thereunder. Accordingly, Dissenting Shareholders who might desire to exercise the right to dissent should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA, the full text of which is set out in Appendix "D" attached to this Information Circular and consult their own legal advisors. Furthermore, the exercise of a right of dissent by a Dissenting Shareholder may give rise to certain tax liabilities to such Dissenting Shareholder. Accordingly, Dissenting Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of exercising a right of dissent and appraisal in their particular circumstances.

It is a condition to the Arrangement that not greater than 5% of the outstanding PreveCeutical Shares held by PreveCeutical Shareholders will have exercised Dissent Rights in respect of the Arrangement Resolution.

CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ARRANGEMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING UPON THE PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES OF EACH PREVECEUTICAL SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER FACTORS. ACCORDINGLY, PREVECEUTICAL SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS TO DETERMINE THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE ARRANGEMENT.

The following fairly summarizes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences under the Tax Act generally applicable to PreveCeutical Shareholders in respect of the disposition of PreveCeutical Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, and the acquisition, holding, and disposition of New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares acquired pursuant to the Arrangement.

In this summary, an otherwise undefined term that first appears in quotation marks has the meaning ascribed to it in the Tax Act.

Comment is restricted to PreveCeutical Shareholders who, for purposes of the Tax Act, (i) hold their PreveCeutical Shares, and will hold their New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares solely as capital property, and (ii) deal at arm's length with and are not affiliated with BioGene and PreveCeutical (each such PreveCeutical Shareholder, a "Holder").

Generally, a Holder's PreveCeutical Share, New PreveCeutical Share or BioGene Spinout Share will be considered to be capital property of the Holder provided that the Holder does not hold the share in the course of carrying on a business of buying and selling securities and has not acquired the share in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure in the nature of trade.

A Resident Holder (as defined below under "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations - Holders Resident in Canada") whose PreveCeutical Shares, New PreveCeutical Shares or BioGene Spinout Shares might not otherwise be capital property may in certain circumstances irrevocably elect under subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to have those shares, and all other "Canadian securities" held by the Resident Holder in the taxation year of the election or in any subsequent taxation year treated as capital property. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the advisability of making such an election.

This summary does not apply to a Holder that:

(a) is a "financial institution" for the purposes of the mark-to-market rules in the Tax Act or a "specified financial institution";

(b) has elected to report its Canadian federal income tax results in a currency other than Canadian currency;


  • 72 -

(c) has entered or will enter into a “derivative forward agreement”, a “synthetic disposition arrangement”, or a “synthetic equity arrangement”;

(d) has acquired PreveCeutical Shares, or will acquire New PreveCeutical Shares or BioGene Shares, on exercise of an employee stock option; or

(e) is a person or partnership an interest in which is a “tax shelter investment”.

This summary also does not apply to holders of PreveCeutical Options or PreveCeutical Warrants.

Each such Holder should consult the Holder’s own tax advisers with respect to the consequences of the Arrangement.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act, the regulations thereunder and counsel’s understanding of the current published administrative practices and policies of the CRA. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and Regulations (the “Proposed Amendments”) announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date. It is assumed that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as currently proposed and that there will be no other change in law or administrative or assessing practice, whether by legislative, governmental, or judicial action or decision, although no assurance can be given in these respects. This summary does not take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax considerations, which may differ materially from the Canadian federal income tax considerations discussed below.

Additional considerations, not discussed in this summary, may be applicable to a Holder that is a corporation resident in Canada, and is, or becomes, or does not deal at arm’s length for purposes of the Tax Act with a corporation resident in Canada that is or becomes, as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events that includes the acquisition of New PreveCeutical Shares or BioGene Spinout Shares, controlled by a non-resident person or group of persons for purposes of the foreign affiliate dumping rules in section 212.3 of the Tax Act. Such Holders should consult their Canadian tax advisers with respect to the consequences of the Arrangement.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not and should not be construed as legal or tax advice to any particular person. Each person who may be affected by the Arrangement should consult the person’s own tax advisers with respect to the person’s particular circumstances.

For purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of PreveCeutical Shares, New PreveCeutical Shares or BioGene Spinout, including interest, dividends, ACB and proceeds of disposition must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the relevant exchange rate applicable on the Effective Date (as determined in accordance with the Tax Act) of the related acquisition, disposition or recognition of income.

Holders Resident in Canada

This of the summary is applicable only to Holders, who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, are resident, or deemed to be resident, in Canada (each a “Resident Holder”).

Redesignation of PreveCeutical Shares

There will be no tax consequences to a Resident Holder on the renaming and redesignation of PreveCeutical Shares to PreveCeutical Class A Shares.


  • 73 -

Exchange of PreveCeutical Class A Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares

A Resident Holder will be considered to have disposed of their PreveCeutical Class A Shares on the exchange of their PreveCeutical Class A Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares pursuant to the Arrangement (the "Share Exchange").

The cost to a Resident Holder of BioGene Spinout Shares acquired on the exchange of PreveCeutical Class A Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares will be equal to the fair market value of the BioGene Spinout Shares at the time of the exchange. The cost to a Resident Holder of New PreveCeutical Shares acquired on the exchange will be equal to the amount, if any, by which the ACB of the Resident Holder's PreveCeutical Class A Shares immediately before the exchange exceeds the fair market value of the BioGene Spinout Shares received on the exchange. If the aggregate fair market value of the BioGene Spinout Shares received by a Resident Holder on the exchange exceeds the "paid-up capital" ("PUC") as determined for purposes of the Tax Act of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares exchanged then the excess will generally be deemed to be a dividend received by the Resident Holder from PreveCeutical. Please see "Taxation on Dividends on PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares" below for a general description of the treatment of dividends under the Tax Act including amounts deemed under the Tax Act to be received as dividends. PreveCeutical expects the fair market value of all BioGene Spinout Shares distributed under the Arrangement will not exceed the paid-up capital of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares. Accordingly, PreveCeutical does not expect that any Resident Holder will be deemed to receive a taxable dividend on the exchange of PreveCeutical Class A Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares.

A Resident Holder who exchanges his, her or its PreveCeutical Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout shares on the Share Exchange will realize a capital gain equal to the amount, if any, by which the fair market value of those BioGene Spinout Shares at the time of the Share Exchange, less the amount of any taxable dividend deemed to be received by the Resident Holder as described in the preceding paragraph, exceeds the "adjusted cost base" ("ACB") of the Resident Holder's PreveCeutical Shares determined immediately before the Share Exchange. Any capital gain so realized will be taxable as described below under "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations - Holders Resident in Canada - Taxation of Capital Gains and Losses on PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares".

Disposition of New PreveCeutical Shares or BioGene Spinout Shares after the Arrangement

A Resident Holder who disposes or is deemed to dispose of a New PreveCeutical Share or BioGene Spinout Shares generally will realize a capital gain (or capital loss) equal to the amount, if any, by which the proceeds of disposition therefor are greater (or less) than the ACB of the share to the Resident Holder, less reasonable costs of disposition. Any such capital gain or capital loss will be taxable or deductible as described below under "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations - Holders Resident in Canada - Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

Taxation of Dividends on PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares

A Resident Holder who is an individual (other than certain trusts) and receives or is deemed to receive a taxable dividend in a taxation year on the Resident Holder's PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares, will be required to include the amount of the dividend in income for the year, subject to the dividend gross-up and tax credit rules applicable to taxable dividends received by a Canadian resident individual from a "taxable Canadian corporation", including the enhanced dividend gross-up and tax credit applicable to the extent that PreveCeutical designates the taxable dividend to be an "eligible dividend" in accordance with the Tax Act.

A Resident Holder that is a corporation and receives or is deemed to receive a taxable dividend in a taxation year on its PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares must include the amount in its income for the year, but generally will be entitled to deduct an equivalent amount from its taxable income. In the event that a dividend is deemed to have been received on the exchange PreveCeutical Class A Shares for New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Spinout Shares under the Arrangement, Resident Holders that are corporations may wish to consult their tax advisors on the tax consequences of the deemed receipt of such a dividend, including the potential application


  • 74 -

of subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act that may result in a portion or all of such deemed dividend being treated as a capital gain, depending on the circumstances.

A Resident Holder that is a “private corporation” or a “subject corporation” may be liable under Part IV of the Tax Act to pay a refundable tax on any such dividends to the extent that the dividend is deductible in computing the corporation’s taxable income.

Taxation of Dividends on BioGene Spinout Shares

Any dividends received or deemed to be received by a Resident Holder in respect of BioGene Spinout Shares, including amounts withheld for foreign withholding tax, will be included in computing such holder’s income for a taxation year. Such dividends received by a Resident Holder who is an individual (including certain trusts) will not be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules in the Tax Act. Similarly, a Resident Holder that is a corporation will not be entitled to a deduction in respect of any dividends received in computing its taxable income.

Subject to the detailed rules in the Tax Act, a Resident Holder may be entitled to a foreign tax credit or deduction for any foreign withholding tax paid with respect to dividends received by the Resident Holder on BioGene Spinout Shares. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the availability of a foreign tax credit or deduction having regard to their own particular circumstances.

Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses

A Resident Holder who realizes a capital gain or capital loss in a taxation year on the actual or deemed disposition of a PreveCeutical Share, New PreveCeutical Share or BioGene Spinout Share generally will be required to include one half of any such capital gain (a “taxable capital gain”) in income for the year, and entitled to deduct one half of any such capital loss (an “allowable capital loss”) against taxable capital gains realized in the year and, to the extent not so deductible, in any of the three preceding taxation years or any subsequent taxation year, to the extent and in the circumstances specified in the Tax Act.

The amount of any capital loss realized by a Resident Holder that is a corporation on the actual or deemed disposition of a PreveCeutical Share, New PreveCeutical Share or BioGene Spinout Share may be reduced by the amount of dividends received or deemed to have been received by it on the share (or on a share substituted therefor) to the extent and in the circumstances described in the Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where the corporation is a member or beneficiary of a partnership or trust that held the share, or where a partnership or trust of which the corporation is a member or beneficiary is itself a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust that held the share.

A Resident Holder that is a “Canadian-controlled private corporation” or a “substantive CCPC” throughout the relevant taxation year may be liable to pay an additional refundable on its “aggregate investment income”, which includes taxable capital gains, for the year.

Minimum Tax on Individuals

A Resident Holder who is an individual (including certain trusts) and receives a taxable dividend on, or realizes a capital gain on the disposition of, a PreveCeutical Share, New PreveCeutical Share or BioGene Spinout Share may thereby be liable for minimum tax to the extent and within the circumstances set out in the Tax Act.

Foreign Property Information Reporting

Generally, a Resident Holder that is a “specified Canadian entity” for a taxation year or a fiscal period and whose total “cost amount” of “specified foreign property, including shares of a non-resident corporation, at any time in the year or fiscal period exceeds $100,000 will be required to file an information return with the CRA for the taxation year or fiscal period disclosing prescribed information in respect of such property. Subject to certain exceptions, a


  • 75 -

Resident Holder, other than a corporation or trust exempt from tax under Part I of the Tax Act, will be a “specified Canadian entity,” as will certain partnerships.

Penalties may apply where a Resident Holder fails to file the required information return in respect of such Resident Holder’s “specified foreign property” on a timely basis in accordance with the Tax Act. The reporting rules in the Tax Act are complex and this summary does not purport to address all circumstances in which reporting may be required by a Resident Holder. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the reporting rules contained in the Tax Act and compliance with these reporting requirements.

Offshore Investment Fund property Rules

The Tax Act contains rules which, in certain circumstances, may require a Resident Holder to include an amount in income in each taxation year in respect of the acquisition and holding of the BioGene Spinout Shares if (1) the value of such shares may reasonably be considered to be derived, directly or indirectly, primarily from certain portfolio investments in (i) shares of the capital stock of one or more corporations, (ii) indebtedness or annuities, (iii) interests in one or more corporations, trusts, partnerships, organizations, funds or entities, (iv) commodities, (v) real estate, (vi) Canadian or foreign resource properties, (vii) currency of a country other than Canada, (viii) rights or options to acquire or dispose of any of the foregoing, or (ix) any combination of the foregoing (collectively “Investment Assets”), and (2) it may reasonably be concluded, having regard to all the circumstances, that one of the main reasons for the Resident Holder acquiring or holding the BioGene Spinout Shares was to derive a benefit from portfolio investments in such a manner that the taxes, if any, on the income, profits and gains from such portfolio investments for any particular year are significantly less than the tax that would have been applicable under Part I of the Tax Act if the income, profits and gains had been earned directly by the Resident Holder.

In determining whether these rules may apply, regard must be had to all of the circumstances, including (i) the nature, organization and operation of any non-resident entity, including BioGene, and the form of, and the terms and conditions governing, the Resident Holder’s interest in, or connection with, any such non-resident entity, (ii) the extent to which any income, profit and gains that may reasonably be considered to be earned or accrued, whether directly or indirectly, for the benefit of any non-resident entity, including BioGene, are subject to an income or profits tax that is significantly less than the income tax that would be applicable to such income, profits and gains if they were earned directly by the Resident Holder, and (iii) the extent to which any income, profits and gains of any non-resident entity, including BioGene, for any fiscal period are distributed in that or the immediately following fiscal period.

If applicable, these rules would generally require a Resident Holder to include in income for each taxation year in which the Resident Holder owns a BioGene Spinout Share (i) an imputed return for the taxation year computed on a monthly basis and determined by multiplying the Resident Holder’s “designated cost” (as defined in the Tax Act) of the BioGene Spinout Share, as applicable, at the end of the month, by 1/12th of the sum of the applicable prescribed rate for the period that includes such month plus 2%, less (ii) the Resident Holder’s income for the year (other than a capital gain) from the BioGene Spinout Share (as applicable) determined without reference to these rules. Any amount required to be included in computing a Resident Holder’s income under these rules will be added to the adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of the applicable BioGene Spinout Shares.

These rules are complex and their application and consequences depend, to a large extent, on the reasons for a Resident Holder acquiring or holding BioGene Spinout Shares. Resident Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the application and consequences of these Offshore Investment Fund Property Rules in their own particular circumstances.

Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholders

A Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder to whom PreveCeutical consequently pays the fair value of his, her or its PreveCeutical Shares will be deemed to receive a taxable dividend in the taxation year of payment equal to the amount, if any, by which the payment (excluding interest) exceeds the PUC of the Dissenting PreveCeutical


  • 76 -

Shareholder's PreveCeutical Shares determined immediately before the Arrangement. Any such taxable dividend will be taxable as described above under "Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations – Holders Resident in Canada – Taxation of Dividends on PreveCeutical Shares or New PreveCeutical Shares". The Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder will also realize a capital gain (or capital loss) equal to the amount, if any, by which the payment (excluding interest), less any such deemed taxable dividend, exceeds (is exceeded by) the ACB of the Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder's PreveCeutical Shares determined immediately before the Arrangement. Any such capital gain or loss will generally be taxable or deductible as described above under "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations – Holders Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

The Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder will be required to include any portion of the payment that is on account of interest in income in the year the interest is received or becomes receivable, depending on the method regularly followed by the Dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder in computing income. Resident Holders who are contemplating exercising their Dissent Rights should consult their own tax advisers.

A New PreveCeutical Share will be a "qualified investment" for a trust governed by an RRSP, RRIF, deferred profit sharing plan, RESP, RDSP, FHSA or TFSA (collectively, "Registered Plans") at any time at which the New PreveCeutical Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange", or PreveCeutical is a "public corporation".

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the "controlling individual" of an RRSP, RRIF, RDSP, RESP, FHSA or TFSA will be subject to a penalty tax in respect of a New PreveCeutical Share held in the RRSP, RRIF, RDSP, RESP, FHSA or TFSA, as applicable, if the share is a "prohibited investment" under the Tax Act. A New PreveCeutical generally will not be a prohibited investment for an RRSP, RRIF, RDSP, RESP, FHSA or TFSA, as applicable, provided that (i) the controlling individual of the account does not have a "significant interest" in PreveCeutical and (ii) PreveCeutical, as applicable, deals at arm's length with the controlling individual for the purposes of the Tax Act. In addition, New PreveCeutical Shares will generally not be prohibited investments if such securities are "excluded property". Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors as to whether New PreveCeutical Shares will be prohibited investments in their particular circumstances.

As the BioGene Spinout Shares are not and, at the time of the Share Exchange, will not be listed on a "designated stock exchange" and the Company does not and will not otherwise satisfy the conditions to be a "public corporation", the BioGene Spinout Shares will not be considered to be a "qualified investment" for Registered Plans.

Where a Registered Plan acquires BioGene Spinout Shares in circumstances where the BioGene Spinout Shares are not a qualified investment under the Tax Act for the Registered Plan, adverse tax consequences may arise for the Registered Plan and the holder or subscriber of, or an annuitant under the Registered Plan, including that the Registered Plan may become subject to penalty taxes, or the holder or subscriber of, or an annuitant under such Registered Plan may be deemed to have received income therefrom or be subject to a penalty tax. Holders of BioGene Spinout Shares should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.

PREVECEUTICAL MEDICAL INC.

The following information is provided by PreveCeutical and is reflective of the current business, financial and share capital position of PreveCeutical and includes certain information reflecting the status of PreveCeutical following the completion of the Arrangement. Unless otherwise indicated, all currency amounts are stated in Canadian dollars.

Summary Description of Business

PreveCeutical is a preventive health sciences company headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. PreveCeutical's core mission is to develop innovative preventive and curative therapies by leveraging science and technology to transform natural and nature-identical products into targeted therapeutics for significant life-affecting diseases. This includes building an extensive intellectual property library to facilitate joint ventures, development agreements and licensing opportunities with leaders in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cannabis industries. PreveCeutical emphasizes health-conscious solutions, aiming to provide consumers with safe, effective options that address unmet needs in areas such as central nervous system (CNS) disorders, pain management, cancer, metabolic conditions and neurological injuries.

Core Technology: Sol-Gel Delivery Platform

At the heart of PreveCeutical's operations is its proprietary Sol-Gel delivery platform, a revolutionary water-based formulation utilizing exclusively FDA-approved excipients. This adaptable system transitions from a liquid solution at room temperature to a mucoadhesive gel upon contact with body tissues, enabling controlled and sustained drug release over periods ranging from hours to days. The platform is designed for versatile administration routes, including nasal, buccal, throat, ear, topical, vaginal and rectal, and is compatible with a wide array of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), such as small molecules, biologics (e.g. antibodies), peptides, Dopamine and cannabinoids.

A key innovation is the nose-to-brain delivery mechanism, which leverages the olfactory pathway to bypass the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This addresses major challenges in treating CNS disorders, where traditional oral or intravenous routes often result in rapid enzymatic breakdown, gastrointestinal distress, poor bioavailability and unpredictable delivery. The Sol-Gel system offers advantages such as micro-dosing to minimize side effects, precision targeting for higher efficacy, sustained release potentially allowing bi-weekly dosing and compatibility for combination therapies. It has shown promise in laboratory testing for applications in CNS disorders, infectious diseases affecting the brain, and sustained delivery of antibiotics, antifungals, and biologics while avoiding gastrointestinal issues. PreveCeutical holds patented technology for this platform and is exploring co-development opportunities with pharmaceutical and biotechnology partners to apply it to specific drugs.

Research and Development Pipeline

PreveCeutical's diverse R&D portfolio focuses on high-impact therapeutic areas, with programs at various preclinical stages. These initiatives aim to create Nature Identical® products and therapies, emphasizing non-addictive, targeted solutions derived from natural sources:

  • Cannabinoid Sol-Gel Delivery: This program integrates medicinal cannabis extracts into the Sol-Gel platform for nose-to-brain delivery of therapeutic cannabinoids. It targets indications including pain, inflammation, seizures and neurological disorders. PreveCeutical has successfully incorporated cannabinoids into the formulation, converted acidic phytocannabinoids to neutral forms, and expanded its fingerprinted cannabis extract library. Future efforts will prioritize advancing to proof-of-concept studies and potential partnerships for clinical applications in the cannabis and pharmaceutical sectors.

  • Non-addictive analgesic peptide: PreveCeutical is developing non-addictive pain management therapies utilizing engineered peptides designed to mimic the body's natural pain-relief mechanisms. These peptides selectively target the kappa-opioid receptor ("KOR"), a protein located in the peripheral nervous system that is involved in the regulation of pain, mood, and stress. By binding to this receptor, the peptides aim to provide potent and sustained analgesic effects without the addictive potential or adverse side effects commonly associated with conventional opioid treatments. The analgesic program involves peptide library synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, alongside pharmacokinetic assessment, and efficacy determinations in appropriate animal models of pain and inflammation. The research for the analgesic program was completed in January 2021. PreveCeutical is working on forming partnerships to further the development and commercialization of products under this program.

  • Sol-Gel nasal delivery platform: The Sol-Gel platform is a water-based drug delivery system utilizing only U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approved excipients and is designed to enable controlled and sustained release of therapeutics. The platform facilitates direct delivery to the brain by bypassing the blood-brain barrier, thereby improving bioavailability and potentially reducing systemic side effects. It was initially developed to support the sustained-release delivery of cannabinoid-based therapies via the nasal cavity, avoiding the digestive tract to enhance therapeutic effectiveness for conditions such as pain, inflammation, seizures, and neurological disorders. PreveCeutical filed an international patent application titled 'Cannabinoid Formulations and Methods of Use' to protect its sol-gel formulations for nasal cannabinoid delivery; the application was


published on March 3, 2022. The Sol-Gel platform is now positioned as a broad-based drug delivery system with potential applicability across multiple therapeutic areas.

  • Sol-Gel Brain Delivery Platform for Parkinson's Disease: PreveCeutical is developing treatments for central nervous system ("CNS") disorders, including neurological and psychiatric conditions, utilizing the Sol-Gel platform described above. The platform is designed to address both chronic CNS conditions and infectious diseases affecting the CNS, such as meningitis and encephalopathies. One key area of focus is Parkinson's disease, for which the primary pharmacological treatment is levodopa ("L-Dopa"), a dopamine precursor. Traditional oral L-Dopa administration is associated with fluctuations in brain drug concentrations, contributing to adverse effects. PreveCeutical's Sol-Gel L-Dopa nasal spray formulation is intended to achieve and maintain steady-state drug concentrations across the brain, deliver a sustained-release profile to minimize peak-and-valley fluctuations, support extended dosing intervals, enable substantive dose reductions, and bypass the gastrointestinal tract and peripheral organs. This delivery method may improve both patient safety and treatment compliance.

  • Blue Scorpion Venom ("BSV") peptide program: PreveCeutical is advancing a cancer-targeting peptide program utilizing peptides derived from BSV. These peptides are designed to inhibit specific enzymes that facilitate the migration of cancer cells, thereby potentially limiting the spread of aggressive brain tumors. The research program was completed in October 2019. The next stages involve further drug development, validation, and preclinical and/or clinical evaluation of the lead peptide candidates. PreveCeutical is actively pursuing strategic partnerships to support the continued development of this program.

Team, Collaborators and Partnerships

PreveCeutical is led by an experienced team with expertise in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and business development. Key executives include Stephen Van Deventer (Chairman and CEO), Dr. Mak Jawadekar (President and Chief Science Officer), Dr. Harry Parekh (Chief Research Officer) and newly appointed Dr. Francis Tavares (Chief Technology Officer, effective June 30, 2025). The PreveCeutical Board and advisory team have been strengthened in 2025 with appointments such as Dr. Bryan Jones as Director of Sol-Gel Special Projects (January 31, 2025), Stephen Glover as Corporate Advisor (May 24, 2025), and Dr. Deepak Sampath as Corporate Advisor (May 30, 2025). Collaborators include academic and industry experts such as Dr. Rakesh Veedu (nucleic acid therapies), Professor Grant Ramm (hepatic research), Dr. Ajit Shetty (former Johnson & Johnson executive), Aditya Bahl (pharmaceutical marketing), and Dr. Bryan Jones (drug development).

Future Plans and Strategy

Going forward, PreveCeutical intends to accelerate its R&D pipeline through preclinical studies, proof-of-concept validations, and IND submissions, particularly for the Sol-Gel platform and gene therapy programs. With bolstered funding and an enhanced leadership team, priorities include securing strategic partnerships for co-development, expanding IP through patent filings (e.g., for Sol-Gel cannabinoid formulations and cyclic peptides), and pursuing regulatory approvals in key markets like Canada, the United States, and Europe. PreveCeutical aims to commercialize products via licensing agreements, joint ventures, and direct sales strategies, focusing on high-growth areas such as CNS therapeutics, non-opioid pain relief, and preventive metabolic solutions. Overall, PreveCeutical seeks to establish itself as a leader in preventive health sciences, delivering sustainable competitive advantages through its innovative delivery systems and nature-inspired therapies, while mitigating risks associated with early-stage development through collaborations and diversified funding sources.

If PreveCeutical fails to comply with such federal, state or foreign laws or regulations, it may fail to obtain regulatory approval for its products and, if it has already obtained regulatory approval, it could be subject to enforcement actions, including injunctions preventing us from conducting its business, withdrawal of clearances or approvals and civil and criminal penalties. In the event that federal, state, and foreign laws and regulations change, PreveCeutical may incur additional costs to seek government approvals, in addition to the clearance from the FDA in order to sell or market its products. If PreveCeutical is slow or unable to adapt to changes in existing regulatory requirements or the promulgation of new regulatory requirements or policies, PreveCeutical or its licensees may, following approval, lose marketing approval for its products which will impact its ability to conduct business in the future. The FDA's upcoming actions regarding regulations, guidance, and enforcement are particularly unpredictable, as a result of the recent change of presidential administration, which is expected to bring significant changes to policy initiatives.

PreveCeutical may be unable to adequately protect its intellectual property rights, which could affect its ability to compete.

PreveCeutical owns patents, trademarks, copyrights and other forms of intellectual property related to its business, and it licenses intellectual property rights from third parties. As a result, BioGene's intellectual property on which PreveCeutical depends and its access to and use of certain supplier intellectual property could be negatively affected.

PreveCeutical's intellectual property is also subject to challenge, invalidation, misappropriation, or circumvention by third parties. In the event of infringement of PreveCeutical's intellectual property rights, breach of a confidentiality agreement, or unauthorized disclosure of proprietary information, PreveCeutical may not have adequate legal remedies to protect its intellectual property. Litigation to determine the scope of PreveCeutical's rights, even if successful, could be costly and a diversion of management's attention. In addition, trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors. If PreveCeutical is unable adequately to protect its intellectual property rights, its business could be adversely affected.

PreveCeutical has not reached profitability and currently have negative operating cash flows and a working capital deficit and will have to conduct additional financings to fund its operations.

PreveCeutical currently does not generate any revenue from its operations, and as a result, it faces a high risk of business failure. As of December 31, 2024, PreveCeutical has incurred losses since inception. PreveCeutical's business is focused on developing innovative options for preventative and curative therapies utilizing organic and nature identical products. In order to generate revenues, PreveCeutical will incur substantial expenses in the development of its business. PreveCeutical therefore expects to incur significant losses in the foreseeable future. PreveCeutical recognizes that if it is unable to generate significant revenues from its activities, its entire business may fail. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that PreveCeutical will be successful in its plan of operation, and it can provide no assurance that PreveCeutical will generate operating revenues or achieve profitable operations in the future.

In order to fund PreveCeutical's plan of operations for the next twelve months, PreveCeutical will seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to its shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict its operations and liquidity.

PreveCeutical's auditor's opinion on its December 31, 2024 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph in respect of there being substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

PreveCeutical will require additional funding to continue its research and development activities, which casts substantial doubt about PreveCeutical's ability to continue as a going concern. PreveCeutical's financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that it cannot continue in existence. PreveCeutical's business operations may fail if its actual cash requirements exceed its estimates and it is not able to obtain further financing. If PreveCeutical cannot continue as a viable entity, its shareholders may lose some or all of their investment.

PreveCeutical's business is at an early stage of development and difficulties obtaining regulatory approval, technical deficiencies and other challenges may hinder the development and marketing of its business.

PreveCeutical's business is at an early stage of development and it may not develop products that can be commercialized. PreveCeutical is still in the early stages of identifying viable products. Any potential products will require significant research and development and preclinical and clinical testing prior to regulatory approval, if required, being obtained in the United States, Canada or other countries. PreveCeutical may not be able to obtain regulatory approvals, if required, to complete necessary clinical trials or to commercialize any products.

PreveCeutical’s products may prove to have undesirable and unintended side effects, or other characteristics adversely affecting their safety, efficacy or cost-effectiveness could prevent or limit its use.

PreveCeutical faces significant competition and if it is unable to successfully compete, it business may suffer a material negative impact.

The life sciences industry is highly competitive. PreveCeutical anticipates that it will continue to face increased competition as existing companies develop new or improved products and as new companies enter the market with new technologies. Many of its competitors are significantly larger than us and have greater financial, technical, research, marketing, sales, distribution and other resources than PreveCeutical. There can be no assurance that PreveCeutical’s competitors will not succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that are more effective or commercially attractive than the products PreveCeutical develops or that such competitors will not succeed in obtaining regulatory approval, or introducing or commercializing any such products, prior to PreveCeutical. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, even if PreveCeutical is able to compete successfully, there can be no assurance that it could do so in a profitable manner.

If PreveCeutical is not able to effectively protect its existing intellectual property, its business may suffer a material negative impact and may fail.

The success of PreveCeutical will be dependent on its ability to protect and develop its technology. PreveCeutical currently has registered patents. If PreveCeutical is unable to protect its intellectual property, its business may be materially adversely affected. Further, PreveCeutical cannot be sure that its activities do not and will not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. If PreveCeutical is compelled to prosecute infringing parties, defend its intellectual property or defend itself from intellectual property claims made by others, PreveCeutical may face significant expense and liability, as well as the diversion of management’s attention from its business, any of which could negatively impact its business or financial condition.

The actual protection afforded by a patent varies on a product-by-product basis, from country to country and depends on many factors, including the type of patent, the scope of its coverage, the availability of regulatory related extensions, the availability of legal remedies in a particular country and the validity and enforceability of the patents. PreveCeutical’s ability to maintain and solidify its proprietary position for its products will depend on its success in obtaining effective claims and enforcing those claims once granted. PreveCeutical’s registered patents and those that may be issued in the future, or those licensed to PreveCeutical, may be challenged, invalidated, unenforceable or circumvented, and the rights granted under any issued patents may not provide it with proprietary protection or competitive advantages against competitors with similar products. PreveCeutical also relies on trade secrets to protect some of its technology, especially where it is believed that patent protection is not appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to maintain. While PreveCeutical uses reasonable efforts to protect its trade secrets, its employees, consultants, contractors or scientific and other advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose its proprietary information to competitors. Enforcement of claims that a third party has illegally obtained and is using trade secrets is expensive, time consuming and uncertain. In addition, non-U.S. courts are sometimes less willing than U.S. courts to protect trade secrets. If PreveCeutical’s competitors independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how, PreveCeutical would not be able to assert its trade secrets against them and its business could be harmed.

PreveCeutical may be subject to changes and uncertainties in laws and government regulations.

PreveCeutical is subject to regulation by domestic and foreign governmental agencies. In addition, relevant new legislation or regulation could occur. Any such new legislation or regulation, the application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to PreveCeutical’s business, or the application of existing laws and regulations, could have a material adverse effect on PreveCeutical’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.


  • 88 -

PreveCeutical is dependent on the services of certain key consultants and the loss of any of these key consultants may have a materially adverse effect on PreveCeutical.

PreveCeutical’s ability to continue to develop a competitive edge in the marketplace will depend, in large part, on its ability to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and PreveCeutical may not be able to attract and retain such personnel. PreveCeutical’s growth has depended, and in the future will continue to depend, on the efforts of its key management consultants. Loss of any of these people would have a material adverse effect on PreveCeutical. Currently, PreveCeutical does not have key-man life insurance.

Conflicts of interest may arise as a result of PreveCeutical’s directors and officers being directors or officers of other life sciences companies.

Certain of PreveCeutical’s directors and officers are, or may become, directors or officers of other life sciences companies. While PreveCeutical is engaged in the business of developing a new technology, such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. PreveCeutical’s directors are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to its best interests and to disclose any interest that they may have in any project or opportunity. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of PreveCeutical’s board of directors, any director in a conflict must disclose such interest and abstain from voting on such matter. In determining whether or not PreveCeutical will participate in any project or opportunity, PreveCeutical’s directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which it may be exposed and its financial position at the time.

PreveCeutical’s articles contain provisions indemnifying its officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

PreveCeutical’s articles contain provisions limiting the liability of its officers and directors for all acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of themselves and all of its other officers or directors or for any loss, damage or expense incurred by PreveCeutical which may happen in the execution of the duties of such officers or directors. Such limitations on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against PreveCeutical’s officers and directors and may discourage or deter its shareholders from suing its officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to PreveCeutical, though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit PreveCeutical and its shareholders.

If PreveCeutical’s business is unsuccessful, its shareholders may lose their entire investment.

Although shareholders will not be bound by or be personally liable for its expenses, liabilities or obligations beyond their total original capital investment, should PreveCeutical suffer a deficiency in funds with which to meet its obligations, the shareholders as a whole may lose their entire investment.

Trading of PreveCeutical’s common shares is limited and sporadic, making it difficult for its shareholders to sell their common shares or liquidate their investments.

The trading price and volume of PreveCeutical’s common shares has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies. There can be no assurance that trading prices previously experienced by PreveCeutical’s common shares will be matched or maintained. Trading in PreveCeutical’s common shares has been limited and sporadic and accordingly there is no guarantee that an investor will be able to liquidate any or all of its investment. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the common shares, regardless of PreveCeutical’s operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for PreveCeutical and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

Investors' interests in PreveCeutical will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if PreveCeutical issues additional common shares or raises funds through the sale of equity securities.

In the event that PreveCeutical is required to issue additional common shares in order to raise financing for working capital, investors' interests in PreveCeutical will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold. The dilution may result in a decline in the market price of PreveCeutical's common shares.

Penny stock rules limit the ability of PreveCeutical's shareholders to sell their stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. PreveCeutical's securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade PreveCeutical's securities.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a shareholder's ability to buy and sell PreveCeutical's shares.

In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy PreveCeutical Shares, which may limit your ability to buy and sell PreveCeutical Shares and have an adverse effect on the market for the PreveCeutical Shares.

PreveCeutical does not intend to pay dividends.

PreveCeutical has never paid any cash dividends and currently does not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that PreveCeutical requires additional funding currently not provided for in its financing plan, its funding sources may prohibit the payment of a dividend. Because PreveCeutical does not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in PreveCeutical will need to come through an increase in the price of the PreveCeutical Shares. This may never happen and investors may lose all of their investment.

General Description of the Business

After completion of the Arrangement, BioGene intends to continue developing innovative gene therapies and delivery platforms to transform the treatment of diabetes and obesity by utilizing the BioGene Business. As a key component of BioGene's expansion, BioGene Australia operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of BioGene in Texas, leveraging the strategic benefits of Australia's 43.5% R&D tax cashback incentive. This subsidiary supports ongoing research and development activities in Australia, where BioGene capitalizes on exceptional scientific talent and the nation's commitment to advancing life sciences.

BioGene is involved in addressing health challenges, particularly metabolic disorders, diabetes, and obesity. BioGene's dual gene therapy program targeting obesity and diabetes incorporates therapeutic approaches such as Nose-to-Brain ("N2B") delivery utilizing the Sol-Gel platform, combined with a bioresponsive self-assembling lipid nanoparticle ("bLNP") platform designed to facilitate the effective deliver and controlled release of genetic material. The program also involves the use of metabolically stabilized, multiple exon-targeting siRNAs specifically directed against PTP1B, which have undergone preliminary validation. Accordingly, BioGene's ongoing development efforts are focused on advancing therapies including the following:

  • GLP-1 Receptor Agonists: BioGene is developing next-generation GLP-1 receptor agonists aimed at improving glycemic control and promoting weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity. These therapies are designed to offer superior efficacy and reduced side effects compared to existing treatments.
  • RNA-Based Therapies: Spinco is exploring RNA-based treatments targeting rare genetic disorders, leveraging advanced RNA platforms to address specific genetic mutations. BioGene reports its preclinical data suggests strong potential for first-inclass therapies in this area.
  • Lipid Nanoparticle ("LNP") Delivery Systems: BioGene utilizes proprietary LNP technology to enhance the delivery and efficacy of mRNA vaccines and other therapeutics. This platform is designed to improve immune responses and durability, with initial applications targeting infectious diseases such as influenza and respiratory syncytial virus ("RSV").

BioGene's mission is to transform metabolic health through the development and delivery of targeted genetic therapies that address key biological pathways underlying insulin resistance, leptin sensitivity and weight regulation. BioGene combines proprietary Smart-siRNA payloads with its advanced bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) delivery system and Sol-Gel intranasal technology to deliver therapeutic agents directly to the brain, bypassing the blood-brain barrier.

BioGene also operates through its wholly owned Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables it to leverage world-class research partnerships and access significant non-dilutive funding through Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program.

BioGene's goal is to become a leader in the genetic treatment of metabolic disorders by advancing its lead diabetes and obesity gene therapy program through late-stage pre-clinical development, IND-enabling studies, and ultimately first-in-human clinical trials.

Research and Development

BioGene's principal development asset is its proprietary diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program, which was initiated by PreveCeutical and its research partners in July 2019. The D&O Program is focused on developing Smart-siRNA payloads to silence protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B ("PTP1B"), a single gene strongly implicated in insulin resistance and obesity.

Through rational design and systematic evaluation, the D&O Program has created a large library of novel nucleic acid sequences, with more than 150 unique gene sequences targeting human PTP1B. This includes a table of novel nucleic


  • 93 -

acid compositions that contrast with existing protected sequences. Cell-based studies have demonstrated promising levels of PTP1B silencing in mouse-derived cells, supporting continued refinement and validation.

A key focus of the program has been the design and screening of a bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release ("BGCR") system to deliver these Smart-siRNAs directly to target cells. Nearly 200 carrier system constructs have been rationally designed, accounting for head group chemistries, charge variations, and self-assembly ligands to optimize delivery efficiency and specificity. In-house cell models of diabetes and obesity have been developed and optimized to test these constructs and sequences.

BioGene is building on this foundation by combining the Smart-siRNA payloads and BGCR system with its proprietary bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) and Sol-Gel intranasal delivery platforms. Together, these technologies are designed to bypass the blood-brain barrier and deliver gene therapy agents directly to the hypothalamus, a key region regulating appetite and metabolism.

The goal of the D&O Program is to demonstrate that this gene-silencing approach is safe and effective in pre-clinical animal models, paving the way for broader pre-clinical safety and efficacy evaluations and ultimately, first-in-human clinical trials. As BioGene moves forward as an independent company, the D&O Program remains its core development focus and supports its strategy to expand into additional metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions.

BioGene's R&D activities are further supported through its Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables BioGene to access Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program. This incentive provides refundable cash rebates of up to 43.5% on eligible research and development expenditures, helping to extend the Company's cash runway and advance its development pipeline efficiently.

As disclosed in the BioGene's financial statements, BioGene's management has determined that the intellectual property acquired in 2024 meets the recognition criteria of IAS 38 for intangible assets, with a reliable basis for valuation. The acquired IP is expected to remain a principal asset for BioGene as it moves toward an independent company and expands its genetic medicine pipeline in the metabolic and neurodegenerative disease space.

Intercorporate Relationships

BioGene has one 100% owned subsidiary in Australia, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd.

General Development of the Business – Three Year History

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024.

On October 29, 2024, BioGene entered into the Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement, as amended on November 22, 2024, whereby it acquired the BioGene Business in consideration for the purchase price of US$1,060,000 (the "Purchase Price"). For further information regarding the Purchase Price refer to "PREVECUTICAL MEDICAL INC. – Summary Description of Business".

Business Objectives and Milestones

BioGene is aiming to announce the topline data from the diabetes preclinical study in the first quarter of 2026, conclude the preclinical rodent trial in the third quarter on 2026 and have partnership negotiations and clinal trial planning underway by the end of 2026.

Available Funds and Principal Purposes

BioGene currently has no operating revenue and will rely primarily on equity financing to satisfy its capital requirements moving forward. The quantity of funds to be raised and the terms of any equity financing that may be undertaken will be negotiated by management as opportunities to raise funds arrive. There can be no assurance


that such funds will be available on favourable terms, or at all. BioGene currently has no working capital and will have to conduct a debt or equity financing to raise working capital.

Statement of Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, and, accordingly, has not yet completed a financial year and has not yet developed a compensation program. BioGene anticipates that it will adopt a compensation program that reflects its stage of development, the main elements of which are expected to be comprised of base salary, option-based awards and annual cash incentives, which elements are similar to those paid by PreveCeutical and described in this Information Circular.

Summary Compensation

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, and has not yet completed a financial year. No compensation has been paid to date. In addition, it has no compensatory plan or other arrangements in respect of compensation received or that may be received by its Chief Executive Officer or its Chief Financial Officer in its current financial year.

On January 9, 2025, the BioGene Board established the following committees:

Audit Committee

The purpose of this committee is to oversee the integrity of BioGene’s financial reporting process, including the internal control system, and to review the performance of the independent auditors; further, the audit committee shall be responsible for appointing the independent auditors, approving audit plans, and reviewing significant accounting matters, and shall report its findings and recommendations to the BioGene Board on a regular basis.

  • 101 -

Research & Development Committee

The purpose of this committee is to be responsible for overseeing and approving BioGene's research and development strategy, pipeline, and other clinical, scientific, and other research and development matters. The committee shall report its findings and recommendations to the BioGene Board on a regular basis.

BioGene Equity Incentive Plan

On January 9, 2025, the BioGene adopted the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. The BioGene Equity Incentive Plan provide a means whereby eligible employees, officers, non-employee directors and other individual service providers develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in the development and financial success of BioGene and to encourage them to devote their best efforts to the business of BioGene, thereby advancing the interests of BioGene and the BioGene Shareholders. BioGene, by means of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, seeks to retain the services of such eligible persons and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of BioGene and its subsidiaries.

The BioGene Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units, Incentive Bonus Awards, Other Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards.

Key Terms of BioGene Equity Incentive Plan

Shares Subject to the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan

The BioGene Equity Incentive Plan is a rolling plan which, subject to the adjustment provisions provided for therein (including a subdivision or consolidation of BioGene Shares), provides that the aggregate maximum number of BioGene Shares that may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of awards granted under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan shall not exceed 15% of the issued and outstanding BioGene Shares from time to time. The BioGene Equity Incentive Plan is considered an "evergreen" plan, since the BioGene Shares covered by awards which have been exercised, settled or terminated shall be available for subsequent grants under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and the number of awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding BioGene Shares increases.

Administration of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan

The administrator of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan is determined by the BioGene Board and is initially the BioGene Board. The BioGene Equity Incentive Plan may in the future continue to be administered by the BioGene Board itself or delegated to a committee of the BioGene Board. The administrator determines which directors, officers, consultants and employees are eligible to receive awards under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, the time or times at which awards may be granted, the conditions under which awards may be granted or forfeited to BioGene, the number of BioGene Shares to be covered by any award, the exercise price of any award, whether restrictions or limitations are to be imposed on the BioGene Shares issuable pursuant to grants of any award, and the nature of any such restrictions or limitations, any acceleration of exercisability or vesting, or waiver of termination regarding any award, based on such factors as the administrator may determine.

In addition, the administrator interprets the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and may adopt guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan.

Eligibility

All directors, officers, employees, consultants, advisors or other independent service provider are eligible to participate in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. The extent to which any such individual is entitled to receive a grant


  • 102 -

of an award pursuant to the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the administrator.

Types of Awards

Awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock units, BioGene Shares, performance shares, performance units, incentive bonus awards, other stock-based awards and other cash-based awards may be made under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. All of the awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement and forfeiture provisions determined by the administrator, in its sole discretion, subject to such limitations provided in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, and will generally be evidenced by an award agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and in accordance with applicable law, the administrator may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of awards, cancel or modify outstanding awards, and waive any condition imposed with respect to awards or BioGene Shares issued pursuant to awards.

Stock Options

A stock option entitles a holder thereof to purchase a prescribed number of treasury BioGene Shares at an exercise price set at the time of the grant. The administrator will establish the exercise price at the time each stock option is granted, which exercise price must in all cases be equal to the fair market value of the BioGene Shares on the date of grant, and as otherwise required pursuant to the policies of the any stock exchange on which the BioGene Shares are listed, unless otherwise permitted by applicable securities laws or the policies of a stock exchange on which the BioGene Shares are listed. Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, each stock option expires on its respective expiry date, provided such expiry date does not exceed 10 years. The administrator will have the authority to determine the vesting terms applicable to grants of stock options. Once a stock option becomes vested, it shall remain vested and shall be exercisable until expiration or termination of the stock option, unless otherwise specified by the administrator or as otherwise set forth in any written employment agreement, award agreement or other written agreement between BioGene (or a subsidiary) and the participant. The administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any stock option becomes exercisable. The administrator may provide at the time of granting a stock option that the exercise of that stock option is subject to restrictions, in addition to those specified in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, such as vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified performance goals. Stock options granted under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan may be either incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or non-statutory stock options that do not meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Unless otherwise specified by the administrator at the time of granting a stock option and set forth in the particular award agreement, an exercise notice must be accompanied by payment of the exercise price. Subject to the policies of any stock exchange on which the BioGene Shares are listed, a participant may, in lieu of exercising a stock option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such stock option to BioGene (a "Cashless Exercise") in consideration for an amount from BioGene equal the fair market value of the BioGene Shares issuable on the exercise of such stock option (or portion thereof) as of the date such stock option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the stock option (or portion thereof) surrendered relating to such BioGene Shares (the "In-the-Money Amount") by written notice to BioGene indicating the number of stock options such participant wishes to exercise using the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that BioGene may require. Subject to the provisions of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and the policies of any stock exchange on which the BioGene Shares are listed, BioGene will satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the participant such number of BioGene Shares having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.

No stock option may be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and during a recipient's lifetime an option may be exercised only by the recipient. However, the administrator may permit the holder of an option or other award to transfer the option, right or other award to immediate family members, a family trust for estate planning purposes or by gift to charitable institutions. The administrator will determine the extent to which a holder of a stock option may exercise the option following termination of service.


  • 103 -

Restricted Stock Awards

The administrator may award restricted common stock and/or restricted stock units under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. Restricted stock awards consist of BioGene Shares that are transferred to a participant subject to restrictions that may result in forfeiture if specified conditions are not satisfied. Restricted stock units confer the right to receive BioGene Shares, cash, or a combination of BioGene Shares and cash, at a future date upon or following the attainment of certain conditions specified by the administrator. The restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of restricted stock or restricted stock units may include performance-based conditions. Dividends or distributions with respect to restricted stock may be paid to the holder of the BioGene Shares as and when dividends are paid to stockholders or at the time that the restricted stock vests, as determined by the administrator. If any dividends or distributions are paid in BioGene Shares before the restricted stock vests they will be subject to the same restrictions. Dividend equivalent amounts may be paid with respect to restricted stock units either when cash dividends are paid to stockholders or when the units vest. Unless the administrator determines otherwise, holders of restricted stock will have the right to vote the BioGene Shares.

Performance Awards

The administrator may award performance shares and/or performance units under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. Performance shares and performance units are awards, denominated in either BioGene Shares or U.S. dollars, which are earned during a specified performance period subject to the attainment of performance criteria, as established by the administrator. The administrator will determine the restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of performance shares and performance units.

Incentive Bonus Awards

The administrator may grant incentive bonus awards under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan from time to time. The terms of incentive bonus awards will be set forth in award agreements. Each award agreement will have such terms and conditions as the administrator determines, including performance goals and amount of payment based on achievement of such goals. Incentive bonus awards are payable in cash and/or BioGene Shares.

Other Stock-Based and Cash-Based Awards

The administrator may award other types of equity-based or cash-based awards under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, including the grant or offer for sale of BioGene Shares that do not have vesting requirements and the right to receive one or more cash payments subject to satisfaction of such conditions as the administrator may impose.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The administrator may grant stock appreciation rights ("SARs") under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan. The administrator will determine the other terms applicable to SARs. The exercise price per share of a SAR will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of the BioGene Shares on the date of grant, as determined by the administrator. The maximum term of any SAR granted is ten years from the date of grant. Generally, each SAR will entitle a participant upon exercise to an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value on the exercise date of one share of our common stock over the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock covered by the SAR.

Payment may be made in BioGene Shares, in cash, or partly in BioGene Shares and partly in cash, all as determined by the administrator.

Term

While the does not stipulate a specific term for awards granted thereunder, as discussed below, awards may not expire beyond 10 years from its date of grant, except where shareholder approval is received or where an expiry


  • 104 -

date would have fallen within a blackout period of BioGene. All awards must vest and settle in accordance with the provisions of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and any applicable award agreement, which award agreement may include an expiry date for a specific award.

Effect of Certain Corporate Transactions

The administrator may, at the time of the grant of an award provide for the effect of a change in control (as defined in the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan) on any award, including (i) accelerating or extending the time periods for exercising, vesting in, or realizing gain from any award, (ii) eliminating or modifying the performance or other conditions of an award, or (iii) providing for the cash settlement of an award for an equivalent cash value, as determined by the administrator. The administrator may, in its discretion and without the need for the consent of any recipient of an award, also take one or more of the following actions contingent upon the occurrence of a change in control: (a) cause any or all outstanding options and SARs to become immediately exercisable, in whole or in part; (b) cause any other awards to become non-forfeitable, in whole or in part; (c) cancel any option or SAR in exchange for a substitute option; (d) cancel any award of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares or performance units in exchange for a similar award of the capital stock of any successor corporation; (e) redeem any restricted stock for cash and/or other substitute consideration; (f) cancel or terminate any award for cash and/or other substitute consideration in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property equal to the amount, if any, that would have been attained upon the exercise of such award or realization of the participant's rights as of the date of the occurrence of the change in control, but if the change in control consideration with respect to any option or SAR does not exceed its exercise price, the option or SAR may be cancelled without payment of any consideration; or (g) make such other modifications, adjustments or amendments to outstanding awards as the administrator deems necessary or appropriate.

Non-Transferability of Awards

Except as permitted by the administrator and to the extent that certain rights may pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon death of a participant, by will or as required by law, no assignment or transfer of awards, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, vests any interest or right in such awards whatsoever in any assignee or transferee and immediately upon any assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, such awards will terminate and be of no further force or effect. To the extent that certain rights to exercise any portion of an outstanding award pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon the death of a participant, the period in which such award can be exercised by such beneficiary or legal representative shall not exceed one year from the participant's death.

Amendments to the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan

The BioGene Board may at any time amend the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, or other applicable law or regulation or for any other legal purpose, provided that, without the consent of our shareholders, the BioGene Board may not (a) increase the number of BioGene Shares available under the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan, (b) change the group of individuals eligible to receive options, SARs and/or other awards, or (c) extend the term of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan.

The administrator will determine the persons to whom options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock units, restricted or unrestricted shares of common stock, performance shares, performance units, incentive bonus awards, other stock-based awards and other cash-based awards may be granted. The administrator may also establish rules and regulations for the administration of the BioGene Equity Incentive Plan and amendments or modifications of outstanding awards.

Pension Plan Benefits

BioGene does not have a pension plan that provides for payments or benefits to the NEOs at, following, or in connection with retirement.


Termination of Employment, Change in Responsibilities and Employment Contracts

BioGene has no employment contracts between it and either of its NEOs. Further, it has no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for payments to a NEO following or in connection with any termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, retirement, a change of control of BioGene or its subsidiaries, if any, or a change in responsibilities of a NEO following a change of control. BioGene will consider entering into contracts with its NEOs following completion of the Arrangement.

Defined Benefit or Actuarial Plan Disclosure

BioGene has no defined benefit or actuarial plans.

Director Compensation

BioGene currently has no arrangements, standard or otherwise, pursuant to which directors are compensated by BioGene for their services in their capacity as directors, or for committee participation, involvement in special assignments or for services as a consultant or expert since its incorporation on October 24, 2024 and up to and including the date of this Information Circular.

Upon completion of the Arrangement, BioGene will adopt a compensation program for directors. The objectives of the director compensation program will be to attract, retain and inspire performance of members of the BioGene Board of a quality and nature that will enhance BioGene's growth.

Audit Committee and Corporate Governance

Audit Committee

BioGene appointed an audit committee on January 9, 2025. Each member of the BioGene Audit Committee to be appointed will have adequate education and experience that is relevant to their performance as an audit committee member and, in particular, the requisite education that is relevant to their performance as an audit committee member and, in particular, the requisite education and experience that have provided the member with the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by BioGene’s financial statements. It is anticipated that each of Stephen Van Deventer, Deepak Sampath, and Steve Glover, will be members of BioGene’s Audit Committee. As Stephen Van Deventer is CEO and President of BioGene, Mr. Van Deventer is not considered independent. Messrs. Sampath and Glover will be the independent members of BioGene’s Audit Committee.

It is intended that the BioGene Audit Committee will establish a practice of approving audit and non-audit services provided by the external auditor. The BioGene Audit Committee intends to delegate to its Chair the authority, to be exercised between regularly scheduled meetings of the BioGene Audit Committee, to preapprove audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditor. All such preapprovals would be reported by the Chair at the meeting of the BioGene Audit Committee next following the pre-approval.

The charter to be adopted by the BioGene Audit Committee is substantially similar to that of PreveCeutical’s Audit Committee, which is appended to this Information Circular as Schedule “L”.

To date, BioGene has paid no fees to its external auditor.

Risk Factors

In addition to the other information contained in this Information Circular, the following factors should be considered carefully when considering risk related to BioGene’s proposed business.

Nature of the Securities and No Assurance of any Listing

BioGene Shares are not currently listed on any stock exchange and there is no assurance that the BioGene Spinout Shares will be listed. Even if a listing is obtained, the holding of BioGene Spinout Shares will involve a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by investors whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. BioGene Spinout Shares should not be held by persons who cannot afford the possibility of the loss of their entire investment. Furthermore, an investment in securities of BioGene should not constitute a major portion of an investor’s portfolio.

Possible Non-Completion of Arrangement

There is no assurance that the Arrangement will receive regulatory, stock exchange, Court or shareholder approval or will be completed. If the Arrangement is not completed, BioGene will remain a private company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical. If the Arrangement is completed, BioGene Shareholders (which will include


  • 107 -

PreveCeutical Shareholders who receive BioGene Spinout Shares) will be subject to the risk factors described below relating to the BioGene Business.

Limited Operating History

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, and has a limited operating history and no operating revenues.

Dependence on Management

BioGene will be very dependent upon the personal efforts and commitment of its directors and officers. If one or more of BioGene’s proposed executive officers become unavailable for any reason, a severe disruption to the business and operations of BioGene could result, and BioGene may not be able to replace them readily, if at all. As BioGene’s business activity grows, BioGene will require additional key financial, administrative and personnel as well as additional operations staff. There can be no assurance that BioGene will be successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel as competition for persons with these skill sets increase. If BioGene is not successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel, the efficiency of its operations could be impaired, which could have an adverse impact on BioGene’s future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition.

Financing Risks

If the Arrangement is completed, additional funding will be required to continue development of the BioGene Business. The only sources of future funds presently available to BioGene are the sale of equity capital or the disposition of an interest in the BioGene Business and any other intellectual property of BioGene. There is no assurance that any such funds will be available for operations. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis could cause BioGene to reduce or terminate its proposed operations.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain directors and officers of BioGene are, and may continue to be, involved in the health sciences industry through their direct and indirect participation in corporations, partnerships or joint ventures which are potential competitors of BioGene, including possibly PreveCeutical. Situations may arise in connection with potential acquisitions in investments where the other interests of these directors and officers may conflict with the interests of BioGene. Directors and officers of BioGene with conflicts of interest will be subject to the procedures set out in applicable corporate and securities legislation, regulation, rules and policies.

No History of Earnings

BioGene has no history of earnings or of a return on investment, and there is no assurance that the BioGene Business or any other property or business that BioGene may acquire or undertake will generate earnings, operate profitably or provide a return on investment in the future. BioGene has no plans to pay dividends for some time in the future, if ever. The future dividend policy of BioGene will be determined by the BioGene Board.

Dilution

Issuances of additional securities including, but not limited to, its common shares or some form of convertible debentures, will result in a substantial dilution of the equity interests of any persons who may become BioGene Shareholders as a result of or subsequent to the Arrangement.

Market for securities

There is currently no market through which the BioGene Shares may be sold and BioGene Shareholders may not be able to resell the BioGene Spinout Shares acquired under the Plan of Arrangement. There can be no assurance that


  • 108 -

an active trading market will develop for the BioGene Shares following the completion of the Plan of Arrangement. There can be no assurances that BioGene will be able to obtain a listing on any stock exchange.

Dividend Policy

No dividends on BioGene Shares have been paid by BioGene to date. BioGene anticipates that it will retain all earnings and other cash resources for the foreseeable future for the operation and development of its business. BioGene does not intend to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of the BioGene Board after taking into account many factors, including BioGene's operating results, financial condition and current and anticipated cash needs.

Regulations are constantly changing, and in the future BioGene's business may be subject to additional regulations that increase its compliance costs.

BioGene believes it understands the current laws and regulations to which its products and product candidates are and will be subject. However, federal, state and foreign laws and regulations relating to the sale of its products are subject to future changes, as are administrative interpretations of laws and regulations. If BioGene fails to comply with such federal, state or foreign laws or regulations, it may fail to obtain regulatory approval for its products and, if it has already obtained regulatory approval, it could be subject to enforcement actions, including injunctions preventing us from conducting its business, withdrawal of clearances or approvals and civil and criminal penalties. In the event that federal, state, and foreign laws and regulations change, it may incur additional costs to seek government approvals, in addition to the clearance from the FDA in order to sell or market its products. If BioGene is slow or unable to adapt to changes in existing regulatory requirements or the promulgation of new regulatory requirements or policies, BioGene or its licensees may, following approval, lose marketing approval for its products which will impact its ability to conduct business in the future. The FDA's upcoming actions regarding regulations, guidance, and enforcement are particularly unpredictable, as a result of the recent change of presidential administration, which is expected to bring significant changes to policy initiatives.

BioGene may be unable to adequately protect its intellectual property rights, which could affect its ability to compete.

BioGene owns patents, trademarks, copyrights and other forms of intellectual property related to its business, and it licenses intellectual property rights from third parties. As a result, its intellectual property on which BioGene depends and its access to and use of certain supplier intellectual property could be negatively affected.

BioGene's intellectual property is also subject to challenge, invalidation, misappropriation, or circumvention by third parties. In the event of infringement of BioGene's intellectual property rights, breach of a confidentiality agreement, or unauthorized disclosure of proprietary information, BioGene may not have adequate legal remedies to protect its intellectual property. Litigation to determine the scope of its rights, even if successful, could be costly and a diversion of management's attention. In addition, trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors. If PreveCeutical is unable adequately to protect its intellectual property rights, its business could be adversely affected.

BioGene has not reached profitability and currently have negative operating cash flows and a working capital deficit and will have to conduct additional financings to fund its operations.

BioGene currently does not generate any revenue from its operations, and as a result, it faces a high risk of business failure. As of December 31, 2024, BioGene has incurred losses since inception. BioGene's business is focused on developing innovative options for preventative and curative therapies utilizing organic and nature identical products. In order to generate revenues, BioGene will incur substantial expenses in the development of its business. BioGene therefore expects to incur significant losses in the foreseeable future. BioGene recognizes that if it is unable to generate significant revenues from its activities, its entire business may fail. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that BioGene will be successful in its plan of operation, and it can provide no assurance that BioGene will generate operating revenues or achieve profitable operations in the future.


  • 109 -

In order to fund BioGene's plan of operations for the next twelve months, BioGene will seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to its shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict its operations and liquidity.

BioGene's auditor's opinion on its December 31, 2024 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph in respect of there being substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

BioGene will require additional funding to continue its research and development activities, which casts substantial doubt about BioGene's ability to continue as a going concern. BioGene's financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that it cannot continue in existence. BioGene's business operations may fail if its actual cash requirements exceed its estimates and it is not able to obtain further financing. If BioGene cannot continue as a viable entity, its shareholders may lose some or all of their investment.

BioGene's business is at an early stage of development and difficulties obtaining regulatory approval, technical deficiencies and other challenges may hinder the development and marketing of its business.

BioGene's business is at an early stage of development and it may not develop products that can be commercialized. BioGene is still in the early stages of identifying viable products. Any potential products will require significant research and development and preclinical and clinical testing prior to regulatory approval, if required, being obtained in the United States, Canada or other countries. BioGene may not be able to obtain regulatory approvals, if required, to complete necessary clinical trials or to commercialize any products. BioGene's products may prove to have undesirable and unintended side effects, or other characteristics adversely affecting their safety, efficacy or cost-effectiveness could prevent or limit its use.

BioGene faces significant competition and if it is unable to successfully compete, it business may suffer a material negative impact.

The life sciences industry is highly competitive. BioGene anticipates that it will continue to face increased competition as existing companies develop new or improved products and as new companies enter the market with new technologies. Many of its competitors are significantly larger than us and have greater financial, technical, research, marketing, sales, distribution and other resources than BioGene. There can be no assurance that BioGene's competitors will not succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that are more effective or commercially attractive than the products BioGene develops or that such competitors will not succeed in obtaining regulatory approval, or introducing or commercializing any such products, prior to BioGene. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, even if BioGene is able to compete successfully, there can be no assurance that it could do so in a profitable manner.

If BioGene is not able to effectively protect its existing intellectual property, its business may suffer a material negative impact and may fail.

The success of BioGene will be dependent on its ability to protect and develop its technology. If BioGene is unable to protect its intellectual property, its business may be materially adversely affected. Further, BioGene cannot be sure that its activities do not and will not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. If BioGene is compelled to prosecute infringing parties, defend its intellectual property or defend itself from intellectual property claims made by others, BioGene may face significant expense and liability, as well as the diversion of management's attention from its business, any of which could negatively impact its business or financial condition.

The actual protection afforded by a patent varies on a product-by-product basis, from country to country and depends on many factors, including the type of patent, the scope of its coverage, the availability of regulatory related extensions, the availability of legal remedies in a particular country and the validity and enforceability of the patents.


  • 110 -

BioGene's ability to maintain and solidify its proprietary position for its products will depend on its success in obtaining effective claims and enforcing those claims once granted. BioGene's registered patents and those that may be issued in the future, or those licensed to BioGene, may be challenged, invalidated, unenforceable or circumvented, and the rights granted under any issued patents may not provide it with proprietary protection or competitive advantages against competitors with similar products. BioGene also relies on trade secrets to protect some of its technology, especially where it is believed that patent protection is not appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to maintain. While BioGene uses reasonable efforts to protect its trade secrets, its employees, consultants, contractors or scientific and other advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose its proprietary information to competitors. Enforcement of claims that a third party has illegally obtained and is using trade secrets is expensive, time consuming and uncertain. In addition, non-U.S. courts are sometimes less willing than U.S. courts to protect trade secrets. If BioGene's competitors independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how, BioGene would not be able to assert its trade secrets against them and its business could be harmed.

BioGene may be subject to changes and uncertainties in laws and government regulations.

BioGene is subject to regulation by domestic and foreign governmental agencies. In addition, relevant new legislation or regulation could occur. Any such new legislation or regulation, the application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to BioGene's business, or the application of existing laws and regulations, could have a material adverse effect on BioGene's business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

BioGene is dependent on the services of certain key consultants and the loss of any of these key consultants may have a materially adverse effect on BioGene.

BioGene's ability to continue to develop a competitive edge in the marketplace will depend, in large part, on its ability to attract and maintain qualified key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and BioGene may not be able to attract and retain such personnel. BioGene's growth has depended, and in the future will continue to depend, on the efforts of its key management consultants. Loss of any of these people would have a material adverse effect on BioGene. Currently, BioGene does not have key-man life insurance.

Conflicts of interest may arise as a result of BioGene's directors and officers being directors or officers of other life sciences companies.

Certain of BioGene's directors and officers are, or may become, directors or officers of other life sciences companies. While BioGene is engaged in the business of developing a new technology, such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. BioGene's directors are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view in BioGene's best interests and to disclose any interest that they may have in any project or opportunity. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of BioGene's board of directors, any director in a conflict must disclose such interest and abstain from voting on such matter. In determining whether or not BioGene will participate in any project or opportunity, BioGene's directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which it may be exposed and its financial position at the time.

BioGene's articles contain provisions indemnifying its officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

BioGene's articles contain provisions limiting the liability of its officers and directors for all acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of themselves and all of its other officers or directors or for any loss, damage or expense incurred by BioGene which may happen in the execution of the duties of such officers or directors. Such limitations on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against BioGene's officers and directors and may discourage or deter its shareholders from suing its officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to BioGene, though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit BioGene and its shareholders.


  • 111 -

If BioGene's business is unsuccessful, its shareholders may lose their entire investment.

Although shareholders will not be bound by or be personally liable for its expenses, liabilities or obligations beyond their total original capital investment, should BioGene suffer a deficiency in funds with which to meet its obligations, the shareholders as a whole may lose their entire investment.

Legal Proceedings

To the best of BioGene's knowledge, following due enquiry, BioGene is not a party to any material legal proceedings and BioGene is not aware of any such proceedings known to be contemplated.

To the best of BioGene's knowledge, following due enquiry, there have been no penalties or sanctions imposed against BioGene by a court relating to federal, state, provincial and territorial securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority since incorporation, nor have there been any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body against BioGene and it has not entered into any settlement agreements before a court relating to provincial and territorial securities legislation or with a securities regulatory authority.

Interest of Management and Others in Material Transactions

No director, executive officer or greater than 10% shareholder of BioGene and no associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons has or had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since incorporation or in any proposed transaction which in either such case has materially affected or will materially affect BioGene save as described herein.

Auditors

The auditor of BioGene is Davidson & Company LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants of 1200 - 609 Granville Avenue, Vancouver, British Columbia V7Y 1H4.

Registrar and Transfer Agent

The registrar and transfer agent for the BioGene Shares will be Endeavor Trust Company, of Suite 702, 777 Hornby Street, Vancouver, BC V6Z 1S4.

Material Contracts

The only agreements or contracts that BioGene has entered into since its incorporation or will enter into as part of or in connection with the Arrangement which may be reasonably regarded as being material are as follows:

  • the Arrangement Agreement; and
  • the Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement.

A copy of any material agreement may be inspected at any time up to the commencement of the Meeting during normal business hours at BioGene's offices located 5900 Balcones Drive, Suite 100, Austin, TX 78731 and under PreveCeutical's profile on the SEDAR website at www.sedarplus.ca.

ARRANGEMENT

ARTICLE 3

THE ARRANGEMENT

3.1 The Arrangement. Commencing at the Effective Time, the following shall occur and be deemed to occur in the following chronological order without further act or formality notwithstanding anything contained in the provisions attaching to any of the securities of PreveCeutical or BioGene, but subject to the provisions of Article 5:

(a) each PreveCeutical Share outstanding in respect of which a Dissenting Shareholder has validly exercised his, her or its Dissent Rights (each, a "Dissenting Share") shall be directly transferred and assigned by such Dissenting Shareholder to PreveCeutical, without any further act or formality and free and clear of any liens, charges and encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, and will be cancelled and cease to be outstanding and such Dissenting Shareholders will cease to have any rights as a PreveCeutical Shareholder other than the right to be paid the fair value for their PreveCeutical Shares by PreveCeutical;

(b) the authorized share structure of PreveCeutical shall be altered by:

(i) renaming and redesignating all of the issued and unissued PreveCeutical Shares as "Class A common shares without par value" and amending the special rights and restrictions attached to those shares to provide the holders thereof with two votes in respect of each share held, being the "PreveCeutical Class A Shares", and

(ii) creating a new class consisting of an unlimited number of "common shares without par value" with terms and special rights and restrictions identical to those of the PreveCeutical Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time, being the "New PreveCeutical Shares";

(c) PreveCeutical's Notice of Articles shall be amended to reflect the alterations in Section 3.1(b);

(d) each PreveCeutical Option then outstanding to acquire one PreveCeutical Share shall be transferred and exchanged for one PreveCeutical Replacement Option to


A-6

acquire one New PreveCeutical Share having an exercise price equal to the original exercise price of the PreveCeutical Option;

(e) each PreveCeutical Warrant then outstanding shall be deemed to be amended to entitle the PreveCeutical Warrantholder to receive, upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant, for the exercise price, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions set out in the certificate representing the PreveCeutical Warrants, one New PreveCeutical Share for each PreveCeutical Share that was issuable upon due exercise of the PreveCeutical Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time;

(f) each issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Share outstanding on the Share Distribution Record Date shall be exchanged for: (i) one New PreveCeutical Share; and (ii) such number of Spinout Shares equal to one (1) multiplied by the Distribution Fraction, the holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be removed from the central securities register of PreveCeutical as the holders of such and will be added to the central securities register of PreveCeutical as the holders of the number of New PreveCeutical Shares that they have received on the exchange set forth in this Section 3.1(f), and the Spinout Shares transferred to the then holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be registered in the name of the former holders of the PreveCeutical Class A Shares and PreveCeutical will provide BioGene and its registrar and transfer agent notice to make the appropriate entries in the central securities register of BioGene;

(h) in the event that the number of outstanding PreveCeutical Shares changes between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the Distribution Fraction referred to in this Plan of Arrangement shall be adjusted so that it is the fraction calculated by dividing the number of Spinout Shares by the number of outstanding PreveCeutical Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(i) the Spinout Shares will be subject to the Escrow Restrictions and the transfer agent for BioGene will legend the Spinout Shares accordingly.

3.2 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Arrangement, no fractional BioGene Shares shall be distributed to the PreveCeutical Shareholders, and, as a result, all fractional amounts arising under this Plan of Arrangement shall be rounded down to the next whole number without any compensation therefor.

3.5 Deemed Fully Paid and Non-Assessable Shares. All New PreveCeutical Shares, PreveCeutical Class A Shares and Spinout Shares issued pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be validly issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable shares for all purposes of the BCBCA and applicable laws in Texas.

RIGHTS OF DISSENT

5.1 Dissent Right. Registered holders of PreveCeutical Shares may exercise Dissent Rights with respect to their PreveCeutical Shares in connection with the Arrangement pursuant to the Interim Order and in the manner set forth in the Dissent Procedures, as they may be amended by the Interim Order, the Final Order or any other order of the Court, and provided that such dissenting Shareholder delivers a written notice of dissent to PreveCeutical at least two Business Days before the day of the PreveCeutical Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

5.2 Dealing with Dissenting Shares. PreveCeutical Shareholders who duly exercise Dissent Rights with respect to their Dissenting Shares and who:


A-9

(a) are ultimately entitled to be paid fair value for their Dissenting Shares by PreveCeutical shall be deemed to have transferred their Dissenting Shares to PreveCeutical for cancellation as of the Effective Time pursuant to Section 3.1(a); or

(b) for any reason are ultimately not entitled to be paid for their Dissenting Shares, shall be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a non-dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder and shall receive New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Shares on the same basis as every other non-dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder;

but in no case shall PreveCeutical be required to recognize such persons as holding PreveCeutical Shares on or after the Effective Date.

5.3 Reservation of Spinout Shares. If a PreveCeutical Shareholder exercises Dissent Rights, PreveCeutical shall, on the Effective Date, set aside and not distribute that portion of the Spinout Shares which is attributable to the PreveCeutical Shares for which Dissent Rights have been exercised. If the dissenting PreveCeutical Shareholder is ultimately not entitled to be paid for their Dissenting Shares, PreveCeutical shall distribute to such PreveCeutical Shareholder his or her pro rata portion of the Spinout Shares. If a PreveCeutical Shareholder duly complies with the Dissent Procedures and is ultimately entitled to be paid for their Dissenting Shares, then PreveCeutical shall retain the portion of the Spinout Shares attributable to such PreveCeutical Shareholder and such shares will be dealt with as determined by the PreveCeutical Board in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE 6 DELIVERY OF SHARES

6.1 Delivery of Shares.

(a) Upon surrender to the Depositary for cancellation of a certificate that immediately before the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding PreveCeutical Shares, together with a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and such additional documents and instruments as the Depositary may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate or direct registration statement will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and the Depositary shall deliver to such holder following the Effective Time, a certificate or direct registration statement representing the New PreveCeutical Shares and a certificate or direct registration statement representing the Spinout Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof.

(b) After the Effective Time and until surrendered for cancellation as contemplated by Section 6.1(a) hereof, each certificate or direct registration statement that immediately prior to the Effective time represented one or more PreveCeutical Shares shall be deemed at all times to represent only the right to receive in exchange therefor a certificate or direct registration statement representing the New PreveCeutical Shares and a certificate or direct registration statement


A-10

representing the Spinout Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1 thereof.

6.2 Lost Certificates. If any certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding PreveCeutical Shares that were exchanged for New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares in accordance with Section 3.1 thereof, shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder claiming such certificate or direct registration statement to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or direct registration statement, the New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1 thereof. When authorizing such delivery of New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or direct registration statement, the holder to whom such securities are to be delivered shall, as a condition precedent to the delivery of such New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares give a bond satisfactory to PreveCeutical, BioGene and the Depositary in such amount as PreveCeutical, BioGene and the Depositary may direct, or otherwise indemnify PreveCeutical, BioGene and the Depositary in a manner satisfactory to PreveCeutical, BioGene and the Depositary, against any claim that may be made against PreveCeutical, BioGene or the Depositary with respect to the certificate or direct registration statement alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed and shall otherwise take such actions as may be required by the articles of PreveCeutical.

6.3 Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Certificates. No dividend or other distribution declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to New PreveCeutical Shares or Spinout Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or direct registration statement that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding PreveCeutical Shares unless and until the holder of such certificate or direct registration statement shall have complied with the provisions of Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 thereof. Subject to applicable law and to Section 3.7 thereof, at the time of such compliance, there shall, in addition to the delivery of the New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares to which such holder is thereby entitled, be delivered to such holder, without interest, the amount of the dividend or other distribution with a record date after the Effective Time theretofoe paid with respect to such New PreveCeutical Shares and/or Spinout Shares, as applicable.

6.4 Limitation and Proscription. To the extent that a former PreveCeutical Shareholder shall not have complied with the provisions of Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 thereof, as applicable, on or before the date that is six (6) years after the Effective Date (the "Final Proscription Date"), then the New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares that such former PreveCeutical Shareholder was entitled to receive shall be automatically cancelled without any repayment of capital in respect thereof and the New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares to which such PreveCeutical Shareholder was entitled, shall be delivered to PreveCeutical by the Depositary and certificates or direct registration statements representing such New PreveCeutical Shares and Spinout Shares shall be cancelled by PreveCeutical and certificates or direct registration statements representing such Spinout Shares shall be dealt with as determined by the PreveCeutical Board in its sole discretion, as applicable, and the interest of the former


A-11

PreveCeutical Shareholder in such New PreveCeutical Shares and BioGene Shares or to which it was entitled shall be terminated as of such Final Proscription Date.

6.5 Paramountcy. From and after the Effective Time: (i) this Plan of Arrangement shall take precedence and priority over any and all PreveCeutical Shares, PreveCeutical Options, PreveCeutical RSUs or PreveCeutical Warrants issued prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) the rights and obligations of the registered holders of PreveCeutical Shares, the PreveCeutical Options, PreveCeutical RSUs and the PreveCeutical Warrants, BioGene, the Depositary and any transfer agent or other depositary therefor, shall be solely as provided for in this Plan of Arrangement.

7.1 Amendments. PreveCeutical, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to amend, modify and/or supplement this Plan of Arrangement from time to time at any time prior to the Effective Time provided that any such amendment, modification or supplement must be contained in a written document that is filed with the Court and, if made following the PreveCeutical Meeting, approved by the Court.

excluding any appreciation or depreciation in anticipation of the corporate action approved or authorized by the resolution or court order unless exclusion would be inequitable.

(a) the court orders otherwise, or

(a) under section 260, in respect of a resolution to alter the articles


(i) to alter restrictions on the powers of the company or on the business the company is permitted to carry on,

(ii) without limiting subparagraph (i), in the case of a community contribution company, to alter any of the company's community purposes within the meaning of section 51.91, or

(a) dissent with respect to all of the shares, if any, of which the person is both the registered owner and the beneficial owner, and

(b) cause each shareholder who is a registered owner of any other shares of which the person is the beneficial owner to dissent with respect to all of those shares.

Waiver of right to dissent

(2) A shareholder wishing to waive a right of dissent with respect to a particular corporate action must

(a) provide to the company a separate waiver for

(ii) each other person who beneficially owns shares registered in the shareholder's name and on whose behalf the shareholder is providing a waiver, and

(b) identify in each waiver the person on whose behalf the waiver is made.

(3) If a shareholder waives a right of dissent with respect to a particular corporate action and indicates in the waiver that the right to dissent is being waived on the shareholder's own behalf, the shareholder's right to dissent with respect to the particular corporate action terminates in respect of the shares of which the shareholder is both the registered owner and the beneficial owner, and this Division ceases to apply to

(a) the shareholder in respect of the shares of which the shareholder is both the registered owner and the beneficial owner, and

(b) any other shareholders, who are registered owners of shares beneficially owned by the first mentioned shareholder, in respect of the shares that are beneficially owned by the first mentioned shareholder.

(a) a copy of the proposed resolution, and

(b) a statement advising of the right to send a notice of dissent.

(4) A notice of dissent sent under this section must set out the number, and the class and series, if applicable, of the notice shares, and must set out whichever of the following is applicable:

Notice of intention to proceed

243 (1) A company that receives a notice of dissent under section 242 from a dissenter must,

BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC. – CONSOLIDATED AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Biogene Therapeutics Inc.

Consolidated Financial Statements

For the period from incorporation October 24, 2024 to December 31, 2024

Expressed in US Dollars


DAVIDSON & COMPANY LLP
Chartered Professional Accountants

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Directors of
BioGene Therapeutics Inc.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of BioGene Therapeutics Inc. (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2024, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the period from incorporation on October 24, 2024 to December 31, 2024, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period from incorporation on October 24, 2024 to December 31, 2024 in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS").

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Company has not generated significant revenues to date and expects to continue to incur losses as it advances its research and development activities. These events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the date of this auditor's report includes Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Telephone (604) 687-0947 Davidson-co.com


In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management's Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor's report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

For the period from incorporation October 24, 2024 to December 31, 2024

Expressed in US Dollars

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

BioGene Therapeutics Inc. ("the Company" or "BioGene") was incorporated on October 24, 2024, under the laws of the State of Texas, USA, as a wholly owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. ("PreveCeutical"). The Company's principal business activity is focused on research and development of gene therapy solutions, with an initial emphasis on advancing its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program, which forms a core part of its early-stage research activities.

The Company has incorporated an additional wholly owned subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, in Australia, to support future research and development initiatives in collaboration with Australian institutions. As at December 31, 2024, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd had no assets, liabilities, or operations.

BioGene is in the early pre-commercial stage, the Company's principal focus is advancing the diabetes and obesity ('D&O') gene therapy program, which has been under development by its parent company for several years, and is pursuing a spin-out transaction to become an independent publicly listed company in the United States. A proposed plan of arrangement is expected to be voted on by PreveCeutical shareholders at the Annual General Meeting scheduled for September 29, 2025.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is dependent on the ongoing financial support of its parent, planned bridge financing, and its ability to secure additional equity funding to meet its planned expenditures.

BioGene has not generated significant revenues to date and expects to continue to incur losses as it advances its research and development activities. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain sufficient funding to carry out its planned business objectives and to achieve future profitable operations. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate, adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of the Company's assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of expenses, and classification of statement of financial position accounts. Such adjustments could be material.

As at December 31, 2024 the Company reported the following:

December 31, 2024
Net loss for the period $ 22,646
Working capital deficiency $ 1,014
Deficit $ 22,646

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on September 3, 2025.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of Measurement

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are stated at their fair values. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("USD"), which is the functional currency of BioGene Therapeutics Inc. The functional currency of BioGene Australia Pty Ltd is the Australian dollar ("AUD").

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary BioGene Pty Ltd. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition being the date that the Company obtains control. A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company has control, where control requires exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to affect those returns through power over the investees. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments and to form assumptions that affect the reported amounts and other disclosures in these consolidated financial statements. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these assumptions form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and all future periods that are affected by the change in estimate.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Critical accounting estimates are estimates and assumptions made by management that may result in material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Critical accounting estimates include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Intangible assets – useful lives

Following initial recognition, the Company carries the value of intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis based upon management's estimate of the useful life and residual value. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of the technical obsolescence or legal and other limits to use.

A change in the useful life or residual value will impact the reported carrying value of the intangible assets resulting in a change in related amortization expense.

  • Share-based compensation

The Company maintains an equity incentive plan under which it may grant stock options, restricted share units ("RSUs"), performance shares, and other share-based awards to directors, officers, employees, and consultants.

The fair value of stock options is measured at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Key inputs include the grant-date share price, exercise price, expected volatility, expected option life, dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. Expected volatility is estimated based on historical share price volatility of comparable public companies due to the Company's private status. The expected life of the options is based on industry benchmarks and general option holder behaviour. The Company does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments (continued)

Critical Accounting Estimates (continued)

  • Share-based compensation (continued)

RSUs are measured at fair value at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the underlying common shares. Where share-based awards are issued for non-cash consideration, they are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or, if not reliably measurable, at the fair value of the equity instruments granted.

The fair value of share-based payments is recognized as an expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period. Management estimates expected forfeitures and revises these estimates to reflect actual experience.

Consideration received on exercise of stock options is credited to share capital. Amounts previously recorded in the share-based payment reserve are transferred to share capital when the related options are exercised. For options and awards that expire or are cancelled before vesting or exercise, the recorded amount in the share-based payment reserve is reclassified to deficit.

  • Valuation of the Company's shares

As BioGene is a privately held company with no quoted market price, management determined the fair value of shares issued as consideration for the intangible asset acquisition based on an independent third-party valuation report. The determined fair value was used in accounting for share capital issued and for any related share-based compensation.

  • Valuation of the intellectual property acquired

In the absence of a quoted market price for the acquired intellectual property, management determined the fair value of the IP based on an independent third-party valuation. The valuation applied a replacement cost approach, incorporating historical development costs incurred, inflation adjustments, estimated overhead allocations, and an entrepreneurial profit incentive. Management concluded that this methodology provided a reliable measure of the fair value of the acquired IP at the acquisition date, which formed the basis for the initial recognition of the intangible asset under IAS 38.

Critical Accounting Judgments

Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments. Critical accounting judgments include, but are not limited to, the following

  • Intangible assets

The application of the Company's accounting policy for intangible asset expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that the future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which is based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditures are capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditures is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off to profit or loss in the period the new information becomes available.

The Company assesses at each reporting date if the intangible assets have indicators of impairment. In determining whether the intangible assets are impaired, the Company assesses certain criteria, including observable decreases in value, significant changes with an adverse effect on the entity, a change in market interest rates, evidence of technological obsolescence and plans.

  • Research and development expenditures

Costs to develop products that will be sold are capitalized to the extent that the criteria for recognition as intangible assets in IAS 38 Intangible Assets are met. Those criteria require that the product is technically and economically feasible, which management assessed based on the attributes of the development project, perceived user needs, industry trends and expected future economic conditions. Management considers these factors in aggregate and

applies significant judgment to determine whether the product is feasible. The Company has not capitalized any product development costs as at December 31, 2024.

Critical Accounting Judgments (continued)

  • Loans from Related Parties

Non-interest-bearing loans received from the parent company are initially recognized at fair value in accordance with IFRS 9. The difference between the proceeds received and the fair value of the loan is accounted for as an equity contribution from the parent and recorded in additional paid-in capital. The loan is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The accretion of the discount over the term of the loan is recognized as accretion expense in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The fair value of the loan on initial recognition was determined using an estimated incremental borrowing rate, which reflects the rate the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term with similar security in a comparable economic environment. Management considered current market conditions, the Company's credit profile, and the nature and term of the loan when determining the applicable rate.

  • Going concern assumption

The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to consider all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. The Company is aware that material uncertainties related to events or conditions may cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Financial Instruments

Financial Assets

The Company recognizes a financial asset when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company classifies financial assets at initial recognition as financial assets: measured at amortized cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, or measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The Company's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Assessment and decision on the business model approach used is an accounting judgment.

Financial assets measured at amortized costs

A financial asset that meets both of the following conditions is classified as a financial asset measured at amortized cost:

  • The Company's business model for such financial assets is to hold the assets in order to collect contractual cash flows.

  • The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the amount outstanding.

A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the asset. After initial recognition, the carrying amount of the financial asset measured at amortized cost is determined using the effective interest method, net of impairment loss, if necessary.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI")

For financial assets that are not held for trading, the Company can make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to classify the instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FTVOCI"), with all subsequent changes in fair value being recognized in other comprehensive income. This election is available for each separate investment. Under this FTVOCI category, fair value changes are recognized in OCI while dividends are recognized in profit or loss. On disposal

Financial Instruments (continued)

of the investment the cumulative change in fair value is not recycled to profit or loss, rather transferred to deficit. The Company does not have any financial assets designated as FTVOCI.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")

A financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognized initially at fair value with any associated transaction costs being recognized in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequently, the financial asset is re-measured at fair value, and a gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss in the reporting period in which it arises.

Impairment

In relation to the impairment of financial assets, IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss model. The expected credit loss model requires the Company to account for expected credit losses ("ECL") and changes in those ECL at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the financial assets.

Common control acquisitions

In transactions with related parties under common control, where intangible assets are acquired from the parent, the Company applies IAS 8 in developing an appropriate accounting policy. By analogy to IFRS 3, management applies the acquisition method where the transaction has commercial substance and fair value can be measured reliably. Accordingly, the intangible assets acquired from the parent were recognized at fair value based on an independent third-party valuation, with any difference between the fair value of the assets and the consideration transferred recognized in equity as a capital contribution.

Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or when it expires. Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost. All interest-related charges are reported in profit or loss within interest expense, if applicable.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's financial instruments are comprised of accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and an amount due to its parent company.

The Company classifies and discloses fair value measurements based on a three-level hierarchy:

  • Level 1 – inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
  • Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability are not based on observable market data.

The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and a non-interest-bearing loan due to its parent company in connection with the acquisition of intangible assets. The loan was initially recognized at fair value using a market-based discount rate, with the difference from the face value recognized in equity. The carrying amount is subsequently measured at amortized cost under IFRS 9, with the discount accreted to profit or loss over the loan term.

The carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short-term nature and standard payment terms, except for the related party loan, which was initially recognized at fair value as described above.

The Company's financial instruments are accounted for as follows.

Financial Liability
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost
Due to parent Amortized cost

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Intangible Assets

Recognition and measurement

In the absence of specific guidance in IFRS on accounting for common control transactions, management applied judgment in developing an accounting policy under IAS 8. In the case of intangible assets acquired from a related party, the cost of the asset was determined based on fair value as measured by an independent third-party valuation, which management believes represents a reasonable estimate of the asset's value, reflecting the substance and commercial intent of the transaction.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of comprehensive loss in the expense category that is consistent with the function of the intangible assets.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis. Intangible assets include intellectual property and related rights acquired by the Company and are measured at cost and any accumulated impairment losses.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditures are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss as incurred.

Amortization

The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life is reviewed each reporting period to determine whether the indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life is accounted for prospectively, and amortization is applied from the date the useful life is determined to be finite.

Research and Development

The Company incurs costs on activities that relate to research and development of new products. Research and development costs are expensed, except in cases where development costs meet certain identifiable criteria for deferral, including technical feasibility. Development costs are capitalized only if the expenditures can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to, and has sufficient resources to, complete development and to use or sell the asset. Deferred development costs are amortized over the life of related commercial production, or in the case of serviceable property and equipment, are included in the appropriate property group and are depreciated over its estimated useful life. As at December 31, 2024, the Company has not capitalized any research and development costs.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of long-lived assets to determine whether there is an indication that those assets have suffered an impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment charge (if any). The Company's long-lived assets consist of equipment and intangible assets.

The recoverable amount used for this purpose is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets (continued)

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its recorded amount, the recorded amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment charge is recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to a maximum amount equal to the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

Share Capital

Proceeds received on the issuance of units, consisting of common shares and warrants, are allocated first to common shares based on the market trading price of the common shares at the time the units are issued, and any excess is allocated to warrants.

Incremental costs directly attributed to the issuance of common shares are shown in equity as a reduction, net of tax, of the proceeds received on issue. Shares issued for non-monetary consideration are valued based on the fair value of the goods or services received unless the fair value of the shares are a more reliable measure.

Share-based Compensation

The Company has a stock option plan, described in Note 6, which grants equity-based awards, including stock options, restricted share units ("RSUs"), and performance share units ("PSUs"), to the Company's directors, officers, employees, and consultants. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes or provides services similar to those performed by an employee.

The fair value of the awards is measured using appropriate valuation techniques at the grant date and recognized over the respective vesting period. Stock options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. RSUs and PSUs are measured at the market price of the underlying common shares on the grant date. PSUs may include performance conditions which are assessed at each reporting period, and the related compensation cost is adjusted accordingly.. For directors and employees, the fair value is recognized over the service period to share-based compensation reserve.. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The offset to the recorded cost is to share-based compensation reserve. Consideration received on the exercise of equity-based awards is recorded as share capital and the recorded amount to share-based compensation reserve is transferred to share capital. The number of shares and equity-based awards expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

Where the terms and conditions of equity-based awards are modified, the increase in the fair value of the equity-based awards, measured immediately before and after the modification, is charged to profit or loss. For unexercised equity-based awards that expire, the recorded value in share-based compensation reserve is transferred to deficit.

Foreign Exchange

Functional currency

Items included in the consolidated financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"), which has been determined to be the US dollar. The functional currency of the entity's subsidiary is the Australian dollar.

Foreign currency transaction and balances

Under IFRS, the results and financial position of all the Company's entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Foreign currency transaction and balances (continued)

  • Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the consolidated statement of financial position date;
  • Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period (unless the average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case revenues and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
  • All resulting exchange differences are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency are recorded at the average rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the period-end foreign exchange rate. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the historical rate on the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in profit or loss.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists of current and deferred tax expense and is recorded in operations. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the end of the period, adjusted for amendments to tax payable for previous years.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed using the asset and liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial position and their corresponding tax values, using the enacted or substantively enacted income tax rates at each statement of financial position date. Deferred tax assets also result from unused losses, tax credits and other deductions carried forward. The valuation of deferred tax assets is reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted to the extent that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.

Loss per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted income (loss) per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is determined by adjusting the loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares. In a loss year, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be antidilutive. Basic and diluted loss per share is the same for the periods presented.

New accounting pronouncements and adopted policies

Standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the financial statements are listed below. This listing of standards and interpretations issued are those that the Company reasonably expects to have an impact on disclosures, financial position or performance when applied at a future date.

On October 29, 2024, BioGene entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with its parent company, PreveCeutical, and its subsidiary, PreveCeutical (Australia) Pty Ltd. Under this agreement, BioGene acquired the full worldwide rights, title, and interest in certain intellectual property assets related to its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program.

The acquired assets include:

  • Project intellectual property developed under the UniQuest Research and Option Agreement.
  • Materials, research data, and related information needed to exercise the UniQuest License Option.

Total $ 1,790,750

As at December 31, 2024, the unpaid portion of the non-interest-bearing loan is presented as Due to Parent in the statement of financial position.

The acquisition of the intangible assets from PreveCeutical was a transaction under common control. As IFRS does not provide specific guidance for such transactions, management applied IAS 8 in developing an accounting policy by reference to IFRS 3. Management determined that applying the acquisition method and recognizing the assets at fair value provided the most relevant and reliable representation of the transaction, given its commercial substance in connection with the planned spin-out and listing.

The fair value of the intellectual property acquired was determined using a replacement cost approach, a Level 3 fair value measurement under IFRS 13. This approach considered inflation-adjusted historical development costs, overhead allocations for in-house research, and an entrepreneurial profit incentive, which management believes are representative of fair value from a market participant perspective. The resulting valuation formed the basis for the initial recognition of the intangible asset under IAS 38.

Management has determined that the acquired intangible assets have a finite useful life of 25 years and are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the acquisition date of October 29, 2024. The useful life was estimated based on the expected 20-year patent term plus an additional five years of anticipated development. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjustments are made prospectively if circumstances indicate a change is warranted.

As at December 31, 2024, the intellectual property is recorded at cost of $1,985,000, with accumulated amortization of $13,895, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,971,105. Amortization expense of $13,895 was recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the period ended December 31, 2024 and is presented within operating expenses. The intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 25 years. Management reviews the carrying amount for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.

9. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL (continued)

Management regularly reviews the Company's capital requirements and adjusts its capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions and operating objectives. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, arrange additional financing, or adjust its operating plans as necessary.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's capital consisted solely of share capital and a shareholders' equity of $1,367,507. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and has not changed its approach to capital management during the period.

10. INCOME TAXES

The Company is incorporated in the United States and subject to federal income taxation. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss and no provision for income taxes has been recorded. The reconciliation of income tax computed at the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to the income tax amount recognized is as follows:

2024
Income (loss) before Taxes $ (22,646)
Statutory tax rate 21%
Expected Income tax (4,756)
Unused tax losses and tax offsets not recognized 4,756
Expected Income tax (recovery) $ -

The Company has not recognized any deferred tax assets as at December 31, 2024, as it has determined that it is not probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available to utilize the benefits of deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards. However, the Company recognized a deferred income tax liability of $194,250 as at December 31, 2024, in respect of the difference between the accounting carrying amount and the tax adjusted cost base of its intangible asset.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $4,756 of U.S. federal net operating losses available to offset future taxable income. These losses were incurred in the 2024 taxation year and may be carried forward indefinitely under current U.S. tax law, subject to an annual limitation of 80% of taxable income in any future year. The Company did not have any material deductible temporary differences as at December 31, 2024.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's financial instruments consist solely of accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to general operating activities, and an amount due to its parent company in connection with the acquisition of intangible assets. The amount due to the parent company is unsecured, non-interest-bearing, and payable within 24 months from the agreement date. On initial recognition, the liability was recorded at its fair value by discounting the contractual cash flows using a market-based discount rate, with the difference recognized in equity as a capital contribution. The liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with accretion recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

The carrying amounts of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and standard payment terms.

The Company initially recognized the acquired intangible asset (Note 4) and the loan due to the parent company at fair value, both representing Level 3 measurements under IFRS 13. Other than these initial recognition measurements, no financial instruments were measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, therefore, the fair value hierarchy levels under IFRS 13 are not applicable on a recurring basis for this reporting period.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to minimal credit risk, as it does not have cash or receivables at December 31, 2024.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company's liquidity risk relates primarily to its accounts payable and amounts due to its parent. Management monitors its commitments and funding needs on an ongoing basis and expects to settle these obligations through future equity financings or strategic funding arrangements.

Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Risk

The Company currently has no interest-bearing debt and operates primarily in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk is minimal.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,014. The current liabilities as at December 31, 2024 were $1,014.

Other Market Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as all its monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company does not currently enter into hedging arrangements.

12. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

BioGene Therapeutics Inc.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three months ended March 31, 2025

Unaudited - Expressed in US Dollars

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

BioGene Therapeutics Inc. ("the Company" or "BioGene") was incorporated on October 24, 2024, under the laws of the State of Texas, USA, as a wholly owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. ("PreveCeutical"). The Company's principal business activity is focused on research and development of gene therapy solutions, with an initial emphasis on advancing its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program, which forms a core part of its early-stage research activities.

The Company has incorporated an additional wholly owned subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, in Australia, to support future research and development initiatives in collaboration with Australian institutions. As at March 31, 2025, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd had no assets, liabilities, or operations.

BioGene is in the early pre-commercial stage, the Company's principal focus is advancing the diabetes and obesity ('D&O') gene therapy program, which has been under development by its parent company for several years, and is pursuing a spin-out transaction to become an independent company in the United States. A proposed plan of arrangement is expected to be voted on by PreveCeutical shareholders at the Annual General Meeting scheduled for September 29, 2025.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is dependent on the ongoing financial support of its parent, planned bridge financing, and its ability to secure additional equity funding to meet its planned expenditures.

BioGene has not generated significant revenues to date and expects to continue to incur losses as it advances its research and development activities. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain sufficient funding to carry out its planned business objectives and to achieve future profitable operations. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate, adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of the Company's assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of expenses, and classification of statement of financial position accounts. Such adjustments could be material.

As at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company reported the following:

Three months ended March 31, 2025 From incorporation October 24, 2024 to December 31, 2024
Net loss for the period $ 255,474 $ 22,646
Working capital deficiency $ 296,931 $ 1,014
Deficit $ 278,120 $ 22,646

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting using accounting policies consistent with IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2024. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on September 3, 2025.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of Measurement

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are stated at their fair values. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars ("USD"), which is the functional currency of BioGene Therapeutics Inc. The functional currency of BioGene Australia Pty Ltd is the Australian dollar ("AUD").

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary BioGene Pty Ltd. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition being the date that the Company obtains control. A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company has control, where control requires exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to affect those returns through power over the investees. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant accounting policies and the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company's significant accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2024.

4. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

On October 29, 2024, BioGene entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with its parent company, PreveCeutical, and its subsidiary, PreveCeutical (Australia) Pty Ltd. Under this agreement, BioGene acquired the full worldwide rights, title, and interest in certain intellectual property assets related to its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program.

The acquired assets include:

  • Project intellectual property developed under the UniQuest Research and Option Agreement.
  • Materials, research data, and related information needed to exercise the UniQuest License Option.
Net assets acquired
Intangible assets $ 1,985,000
Deferred income tax liability (194,250)
Net assets acquired $ 1,790,750
Consideration provided
Non-interest-bearing loan $ 400,597
Common shares issued, par value 16,000
Total consideration provided $ 416,597
Contribution from PreveCeutical recognized in Additional Paid-in Capital: $ 1,274,750
Capital contribution loan 99,403
Total $ 1,790,750

As at March 31, 2025, the unpaid portion of the non-interest-bearing loan is presented as Due to Parent in the statement of financial position.

The acquisition of the intangible assets from PreveCeutical was a transaction under common control. As IFRS does not provide specific guidance for such transactions, management applied IAS 8 in developing an accounting policy by reference to IFRS 3. Management determined that applying the acquisition method and recognizing the assets at fair value provided the most relevant and reliable representation of the transaction, given its commercial substance in connection with the planned spin-out and listing.


BioGene Therapeutics Inc.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three months ended March 31, 2025

Unaudited - Expressed in US Dollars

4. INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)

The fair value of the intellectual property acquired was determined using a replacement cost approach, a Level 3 fair value measurement under IFRS 13. This approach considered inflation-adjusted historical development costs, overhead allocations for in-house research, and an entrepreneurial profit incentive, which management believes are representative of fair value from a market participant perspective. The resulting valuation formed the basis for the initial recognition of the intangible asset under IAS 38.

Management has determined that the acquired intangible assets have a finite useful life of 25 years and are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the acquisition date of October 29, 2024. The useful life was estimated based on the expected 20-year patent term plus an additional five years of anticipated development. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjustments are made prospectively if circumstances indicate a change is warranted.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's intellectual property was recorded at a cost of $1,985,000 with accumulated amortization of $13,895, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,971,105. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized additional amortization expense of $19,850, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,951,255 as at March 31, 2025.

As at March 31, 2025, the Company's financial instruments consist solely of accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to general operating activities, and an amount due to its parent company in connection with the acquisition of intangible assets. The amount due to the parent company is unsecured, non-interest-bearing, and payable within 24 months from the agreement date. On initial recognition, the liability was recorded at its fair value by discounting the contractual cash flows using a market-based discount rate, with the difference recognized in equity as a capital contribution. The liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with accretion recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The carrying amounts of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and standard payment terms.

The Company initially recognized the acquired intangible asset (Note 4) and the loan due to the parent company at fair value, both representing Level 3 measurements under IFRS 13. Other than these initial recognition measurements, no financial instruments were measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, therefore, the fair value hierarchy levels under IFRS 13 are not applicable on a recurring basis for this reporting period.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to minimal credit risk, as it does not have cash or receivables at March 31, 2025.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company's liquidity risk relates primarily to its accounts payable and amounts due to its parent. Management monitors its commitments and funding needs on an ongoing basis and expects to settle these obligations through future equity financings or strategic funding arrangements.

The Company's accounts payable and accrued liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.

The amounts listed below are the undiscounted contractual maturities for financial liabilities held by the Company as at March 31, 2025:

Less than 1 year 1 to 3 years Total
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 296,931 $ - $ 296,931
Due to parent - 500,000 500,000
$ 296,931 $ 500,000 $ 796,931

Due to parent - 500,000 500,000
$ 1,014 $ 500,000 $ 501,014

Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Risk

The Company currently has no interest-bearing debt and operates primarily in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk is minimal.

As at March 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $296,931. The current liabilities as at March 31, 2025 were $296,931.

Other Market Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as all its monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company does not currently enter into hedging arrangements.

11. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The Company operates in one reportable segment, being the research and development of gene therapy technologies. All operations and assets are located in the United States for the reporting period ended March 31, 2025.

12. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE

On April 1, 2025, the Company issued 1,450,000 RSUs to directors and key management personnel. These RSUs vest 25% on the grant date and 25% on each anniversary of the grant date over the following three years.

On April 1, 2025, the Company granted 1,000,000 stock options under its Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan to directors, key management and consultants. Each option is exercisable into one common share at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and expires on January 1, 2030. The options vest 25% immediately, with the remaining 75% vesting in three equal annual tranches on January 1, 2026, 2027, and 2028.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE

Name, Address and Incorporation

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas, United States, on October 24, 2024.

The Company's registered office is located at 5900 Balcones Drive STE 100, Austin, TX.

BioGene is a subsidiary of PreveCeutical, a public company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

The Company also has a wholly owned Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, incorporated in Queensland, Australia, on October 30, 2024, to support research and development activities and strategic partnerships in Australia.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

BioGene is an emerging biotechnology company, focused on developing next-generation genetic medicines for the treatment of obesity and Type 2 diabetes, two of the world's largest and fastest-growing chronic health challenges. BioGene is a wholly owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical and is positioned to become a standalone company following a planned spin-out transaction.

BioGene's mission is to transform metabolic health through the development and delivery of targeted genetic therapies that address key biological pathways underlying insulin resistance, leptin sensitivity, and weight regulation. The Company combines proprietary Smart-siRNA payloads with its advanced bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) delivery system and Sol-Gel intranasal technology to deliver therapeutic agents directly to the brain, bypassing the blood-brain barrier.

The Company also operates through its wholly owned Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables it to leverage world-class research partnerships and access significant non-dilutive funding through Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program.

BioGene's goal is to become a leader in the genetic treatment of metabolic disorders by advancing its lead diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program through late-stage pre-clinical development, IND-enabling studies, and ultimately first-in-human clinical trials.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

BioGene's principal development asset is its proprietary diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program, which was initiated by PreveCeutical and its research partners in July 2019. The D&O Program is focused on developing Smart-siRNA payloads to silence protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B ("PTP1B"), a single gene strongly implicated in insulin resistance and obesity.

Through rational design and systematic evaluation, the D&O Program has created a large library of novel nucleic acid sequences, with more than 150 unique gene sequences targeting human PTP1B. This includes a table of novel nucleic acid compositions that contrast with existing protected sequences. Cell-based studies have demonstrated promising levels of PTP1B silencing in mouse-derived cells, supporting continued refinement and validation.

A key focus of the program has been the design and screening of a bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release ("BGCR") system to deliver these Smart-siRNAs directly to target cells. Nearly 200 carrier system constructs have been rationally designed, accounting for head group chemistries, charge variations, and self-assembly ligands to optimize delivery

Page 2


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION ON OCTOBER 24, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024

efficiency and specificity. In-house cell models of diabetes and obesity have been developed and optimized to test these constructs and sequences.

BioGene is building on this foundation by combining the Smart-siRNA payloads and BGCR system with its proprietary bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) and Sol-Gel intranasal delivery platforms. Together, these technologies are designed to bypass the blood-brain barrier and deliver gene therapy agents directly to the hypothalamus, a key region regulating appetite and metabolism.

The goal of the D&O Program is to demonstrate that this gene-silencing approach is safe and effective in pre-clinical animal models, paving the way for broader pre-clinical safety and efficacy evaluations and ultimately, first-in-human clinical trials. As BioGene moves forward as an independent company, the D&O Program remains its core development focus and supports its strategy to expand into additional metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions.

The Company's R&D activities are further supported through its Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables BioGene to access Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program. This incentive provides refundable cash rebates of up to 43.5% on eligible research and development expenditures, helping to extend the Company's cash runway and advance its development pipeline efficiently.

As disclosed in the Company's financial statements, management has determined that the intellectual property acquired in 2024 meets the recognition criteria of IAS 38 for intangible assets, with a reliable basis for valuation. The acquired IP is expected to remain a principal asset for BioGene as it moves toward an independent listing and expands its genetic medicine pipeline in the metabolic and neurodegenerative disease space.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, to hold and advance the diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program. During the period ended December 31, 2024, BioGene completed its initial corporate structuring, including the incorporation of its Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd.

On October 29, 2024, BioGene Therapeutics Inc. entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with its parent company, PreveCeutical Medical Inc., and its subsidiary, PreveCeutical (Australia) Pty Ltd. Under this agreement, BioGene acquired the full worldwide rights, title, and interest in certain intellectual property assets related to its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program.

The acquired assets include:

  • Project intellectual property developed under the UniQuest Research and Option Agreement.
  • Materials, research data, and related information needed to exercise the UniQuest License Option.

As at December 31, 2024, the unpaid portion of the non-interest-bearing loan is presented as Due to Parent in the statement of financial position.

The acquisition of the intangible assets from PreveCeutical was a transaction under common control. As IFRS does not provide specific guidance for such transactions, management applied IAS 8 in developing an accounting policy by reference to IFRS 3. Management determined that applying the acquisition method and recognizing the assets at fair value provided the most relevant and reliable representation of the transaction, given its commercial substance in connection with the planned spin-out and listing.

The fair value of the intellectual property acquired was determined using a replacement cost approach, a Level 3 fair value measurement under IFRS 13. This approach considered inflation-adjusted historical development costs, overhead allocations for in-house research, and an entrepreneurial profit incentive, which management believes are representative of fair value from a market participant perspective. The resulting valuation formed the basis for the initial recognition of the intangible asset under IAS 38.

Management has determined that the acquired intangible assets have a finite useful life of 25 years and are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the acquisition date of October 29, 2024. The useful life was estimated based on the expected 20-year patent term plus an additional five years of anticipated development. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjustments are made prospectively if circumstances indicate a change is warranted.

Page 3


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION ON OCTOBER 24, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024

As at December 31, 2024, the intellectual property is recorded at cost of $1,985,000, with accumulated amortization of $13,895, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,971,105. Amortization expense of $13,895 was recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the period ended December 31, 2024 and is presented within operating expenses. The intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 25 years. Management reviews the carrying amount for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.

As at December 31, 2024, BioGene had no revenues and had not commenced commercial operations. The Company's activities were focused on completing the IP transfer, initial corporate appointments, and laying the foundation for upcoming research partnerships and capital raising initiatives.

Subsequent to year-end, BioGene appointed a senior management team, established its scientific advisory board, and began preparations for bridge financing and further development work on the D&O program. These steps align with management's strategy to advance BioGene's spin-out and operate BioGene as an independent company.

FINANCIAL RESULTS OF OPERATION

For the period from incorporation on October 24, 2024, to December 31, 2024, BioGene did not generate any operating revenue.

The Company's activities during the period primarily related to corporate structuring. As a result, total expenses for the period were limited to professional fees.

No salaries, research and development expenditures, or share-based compensation expenses were recorded during the reporting period, as the Company's operational activities are expected to ramp up in fiscal 2025.

The net loss for the period was primarily attributable to start-up costs and includes non-cash expenses recognized in connection with both the amortization of intangible assets acquired during the year and the accretion of a below-market loan from the parent company. These non-cash charges reflect BioGene's status as a pre-revenue, pre-commercial entity focused on positioning its D&O program for future development and regulatory milestones.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS

The Company was incorporated on October 24, 2024. Accordingly, there are no comparative quarterly results to report for the period ended December 31, 2024.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at December 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,014 and no cash balance. As at December 31, 2024 the Company did not have any commitments.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company had not yet generated any revenue and relied entirely on funding provided by its parent company, to finance its incorporation, initial activities, and acquisition of its core intellectual property. At year-end, the Company's primary source of liquidity was future equity or debt financings and the continued financial support of its parent company. The Company had a net working capital deficit due mainly to accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Management believes that additional equity raises, strategic partnerships, and research incentives, including potential tax credits and government cash rebates, will be required to fund operations and research and development activities over the next 12 to 24 months.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its capacity to secure additional capital through public or private offerings, debt arrangements, or other strategic transactions. There is no assurance that such funding will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As at December 31, 2024, there were no related party transactions to report. No amounts were paid to, or accrued for, key management personnel or other related parties during the period. The Company expects that related party arrangements may occur in future periods as it progresses its business operations.

Page 4


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION ON OCTOBER 24, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024

The Company was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. in October 2024 as part of a proposed spin-out transaction. All incorporation and start-up activities to date have been funded by PreveCeutical and managed by individuals who hold roles with both companies.

On October 29, 2024, BioGene entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with PreveCeutical and its subsidiary PreveCeutical (Australia) Pty Ltd (Note 4). As at December 31, 2024, an amount of $500,000 non-interest bearing was payable to PreveCeutical in connection with this transaction. In accordance with IFRS 9, the loan was initially recognized at its present value of $400,597 using a market-based discount rate of 11.72%, with the $99,403 difference recognized in equity as a capital contribution from the parent. An accretion adjustment of $7,737 was recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss for the period ended December 31, 2024. As at December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the loan was $408,334.

Key Management Compensation

The Company's key management consist of the following executive officers and directors:

Name Position Nature of transaction[1]
Stephen Van Deventer CEO, Chairman and President Management services

[1]No amounts were paid or accrued to key management personnel as at December 31, 2024. Share-based compensation (stock options and RSUs) were granted to certain directors and officers subsequent to period-end (Note 13 of the Consolidated financial statements).

OUTSTANDING SHARE DATA

As at December 31, 2024, the Company had 16,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding.

No stock options, restricted share units (RSUs), warrants or other convertible instruments were outstanding as at December 31, 2024.

Subsequent to year-end, the Company may grant equity-based awards under its approved equity incentive plan, which allows for the issuance of options, RSUs, performance shares and other equity-based instruments.

As at December 31, 2024:

(i) the Company had 16,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding

As at September 3, 2025:

(i) the Company had 17,600,000 common shares issued and outstanding; and
(ii) the Company had 1,000,000 stock options outstanding.
(iii) the Company had 1,450,000 RSUs outstanding

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's financial instruments consist solely of accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to general operating activities, and an amount due to its parent company in connection with the acquisition of intangible assets. The amount due to the parent company is unsecured, non-interest-bearing, and payable within 24 months from the agreement date. On initial recognition, the liability was recorded at its fair value by discounting the contractual cash flows using a market-based discount rate, with the difference recognized in equity as a capital contribution. The liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with accretion recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION ON OCTOBER 24, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024

The carrying amounts of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and standard payment terms.

No financial instruments were measured at fair value on a recurring basis; therefore, the fair value hierarchy levels under IFRS 13 are not applicable for this reporting period.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to minimal credit risk, as it does not have cash or receivables at December 31, 2024.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company's liquidity risk relates primarily to its accounts payable and amounts due to its parent. Management monitors its commitments and funding needs on an ongoing basis and expects to settle these obligations through future equity financings or strategic funding arrangements.

Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Risk

The Company currently has no interest-bearing debt and operates primarily in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk is minimal.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,014. The current liabilities as at December 31, 2024 were $1,014.

Other Market Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as all its monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company does not currently enter into hedging arrangements.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company's operations and future performance are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. Investors should carefully consider the following risks in addition to other information disclosed in this MD&A and the financial statements.

Early Stage and Limited Operating History

BioGene is a newly formed entity with no commercial revenues to date. The Company is in the research and development stage and has not yet demonstrated its ability to successfully develop, manufacture, or commercialize any product candidates. There can be no assurance that BioGene's programs will progress beyond the pre-clinical stage or generate revenues in the future. The Company will require additional funding to continue operations, and failure to secure financing may result in delays to its research programs or a write-down of intangible assets.

Dependence on Future Financing

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends on its capacity to secure additional financing to fund research activities, clinical trials, working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company may need to raise additional funds through equity issuances, debt financing, strategic alliances or other arrangements. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all, which could delay or prevent planned activities.

Research and Development Risks

The development of gene therapy and biotechnology products is inherently uncertain and involves significant scientific and technical risk. Pre-clinical programs may fail to demonstrate the desired safety or efficacy outcomes. Even if early-


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION ON OCTOBER 24, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024

stage studies are successful, the Company may not be able to obtain regulatory approval to progress to clinical trials or commercial production.

Spin-Out Transaction Risk

The proposed spin-out from PreveCeutical Medical Inc. is subject to shareholder approval and various regulatory, legal and transactional steps. There is no guarantee that the transaction will be completed as planned or within expected timelines. Failure to complete the spin-out could impact BioGene's operational and financing plans.

Reliance on Parent Company and Related Parties

Until the spin-out is completed, BioGene relies on support from PreveCeutical, including funding and administrative functions. If this support were reduced or withdrawn before the Company can fully operate independently, it could adversely affect BioGene's ability to execute its business plan.

Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights

The Company's success depends on protecting its proprietary technologies, including patents, know-how, and trade secrets. There is no assurance that existing patent applications will result in issued patents or that issued patents will provide meaningful protection. The Company may also be subject to third-party claims of infringement, which could result in costly litigation or licensing arrangements. Loss of IP rights or infringement challenges could reduce the value of capitalized intangibles, leading to impairment charges.

Dependence on Key Personnel and Collaborators

The Company depends heavily on the expertise and continued service of its senior management, scientific advisors, research partners and external collaborators. The loss of any key personnel or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could materially impact BioGene's operations and strategic objectives.

Regulatory and Compliance Risk

Gene therapy and biopharmaceutical development are highly regulated by various health authorities in multiple jurisdictions. Regulatory requirements can change rapidly and there is no guarantee that BioGene's programs will meet the stringent standards required to obtain necessary approvals to market its products.

Economic and Market Risks

Adverse economic conditions, capital market volatility, and fluctuations in investor sentiment could restrict BioGene's access to capital. Broader market conditions may also impact potential partnerships, licensing opportunities, or commercialization prospects.

The risks described above are not an exhaustive list of all risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management, or that are currently deemed immaterial, could also affect the Company's business and future performance. Management continuously monitors these risks and seeks to mitigate them through prudent planning, partnerships, and governance practices, but there can be no assurance that such measures will eliminate all risk.

EVENTS AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2024

On April 1, 2025, BioGene issued 1,450,000 RSUs to directors and key management personnel, vesting over a three-year period.

On the same date, the Company granted 1,000,000 stock options to directors, key management and consultants under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. These options have an exercise price of $5.00 and vest over a three-year schedule.

On April 1, 2025, the Company also issued 1,600,000 common shares to directors to settle outstanding consulting payables.

The effective date of this report is September 3, 2025.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE

Name, Address and Incorporation

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas, United States, on October 24, 2024.

The Company's registered office is located at 5900 Balcones Drive STE 100, Austin, TX.

BioGene is a subsidiary of PreveCeutical, a public company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

The Company also has a wholly owned Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, incorporated in Queensland, Australia, on October 30, 2024, to support research and development activities and strategic partnerships in Australia.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

BioGene is an emerging biotechnology company, focused on developing next-generation genetic medicines for the treatment of obesity and Type 2 diabetes, two of the world's largest and fastest-growing chronic health challenges. BioGene is a wholly owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical and is positioned to become a standalone company following a planned spin-out transaction.

BioGene's mission is to transform metabolic health through the development and delivery of targeted genetic therapies that address key biological pathways underlying insulin resistance, leptin sensitivity, and weight regulation. The Company combines proprietary Smart-siRNA payloads with its advanced bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) delivery system and Sol-Gel intranasal technology to deliver therapeutic agents directly to the brain, bypassing the blood-brain barrier.

The Company also operates through its wholly owned Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables it to leverage world-class research partnerships and access significant non-dilutive funding through Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program.

BioGene's goal is to become a leader in the genetic treatment of metabolic disorders by advancing its lead diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program through late-stage pre-clinical development, IND-enabling studies, and ultimately first-in-human clinical trials.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

BioGene's principal development asset is its proprietary diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program, which was initiated by PreveCeutical and its research partners in July 2019. The D&O Program is focused on developing Smart-siRNA payloads to silence protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B ("PTP1B"), a single gene strongly implicated in insulin resistance and obesity.

Through rational design and systematic evaluation, the D&O Program has created a large library of novel nucleic acid sequences, with more than 150 unique gene sequences targeting human PTP1B. This includes a table of novel nucleic acid compositions that contrast with existing protected sequences. Cell-based studies have demonstrated promising levels of PTP1B silencing in mouse-derived cells, supporting continued refinement and validation.


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

A key focus of the program has been the design and screening of a bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release ("BGCR") system to deliver these Smart-siRNAs directly to target cells. Nearly 200 carrier system constructs have been rationally designed, accounting for head group chemistries, charge variations, and self-assembly ligands to optimize delivery efficiency and specificity. In-house cell models of diabetes and obesity have been developed and optimized to test these constructs and sequences.

BioGene is building on this foundation by combining the Smart-siRNA payloads and BGCR system with its proprietary bioresponsive lipid nanoparticle (bLNP) and Sol-Gel intranasal delivery platforms. Together, these technologies are designed to bypass the blood-brain barrier and deliver gene therapy agents directly to the hypothalamus, a key region regulating appetite and metabolism.

The goal of the D&O Program is to demonstrate that this gene-silencing approach is safe and effective in pre-clinical animal models, paving the way for broader pre-clinical safety and efficacy evaluations and ultimately, first-in-human clinical trials. As BioGene moves forward as an independent company, the D&O Program remains its core development focus and supports its strategy to expand into additional metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions.

The Company's R&D activities are further supported through its Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd, which enables BioGene to access Australia's Federal R&D Tax Incentive Program. This incentive provides refundable cash rebates of up to 43.5% on eligible research and development expenditures, helping to extend the Company's cash runway and advance its development pipeline efficiently.

As disclosed in the Company's financial statements, management has determined that the intellectual property acquired in 2024 meets the recognition criteria of IAS 38 for intangible assets, with a reliable basis for valuation. The acquired IP is expected to remain a principal asset for BioGene as it moves toward an independent listing and expands its genetic medicine pipeline in the metabolic and neurodegenerative disease space.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

BioGene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, to hold and advance the diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program. During the period ended December 31, 2024, BioGene completed its initial corporate structuring, including the incorporation of its Australian subsidiary, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd.

On October 29, 2024, BioGene Therapeutics Inc. entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with its parent company, PreveCeutical, and its subsidiary, PreveCeutical (Australia) Pty Ltd. Under this agreement, BioGene acquired the full worldwide rights, title, and interest in certain intellectual property assets related to its diabetes and obesity ("D&O") gene therapy program.

The acquired assets include:

  • Project intellectual property developed under the UniQuest Research and Option Agreement.
  • Materials, research data, and related information needed to exercise the UniQuest License Option.

As at March 31, 2025, the unpaid portion of the non-interest-bearing loan is presented as Due to Parent in the statement of financial position.

The acquisition of the intangible assets from PreveCeutical was a transaction under common control. As IFRS does not provide specific guidance for such transactions, management applied IAS 8 in developing an accounting policy by reference to IFRS 3. Management determined that applying the acquisition method and recognizing the assets at fair value provided the most relevant and reliable representation of the transaction, given its commercial substance in connection with the planned spin-out and listing.

The fair value of the intellectual property acquired was determined using a replacement cost approach, a Level 3 fair value measurement under IFRS 13. This approach considered inflation-adjusted historical development costs, overhead allocations for in-house research, and an entrepreneurial profit incentive, which management believes are representative of fair value from a market participant perspective. The resulting valuation formed the basis for the initial recognition of the intangible asset under IAS 38.

Management has determined that the acquired intangible assets have a finite useful life of 25 years and are amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on the acquisition date of October 29, 2024. The useful life was estimated based on

Page 3


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

the expected 20-year patent term plus an additional five years of anticipated development. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjustments are made prospectively if circumstances indicate a change is warranted.

On January 9, 2025, BioGene appointed a senior management team, established its scientific advisory board, and began preparations for bridge financing and further development work on the D&O program. These steps align with management's strategy to advance BioGene's spin-out and operate BioGene as an independent company.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company's intellectual property was recorded at a cost of $1,985,000 with accumulated amortization of $13,895, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,971,105. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized additional amortization expense of $19,850, resulting in a carrying amount of $1,951,255 as at March 31, 2025.

As at March 31, 2025, BioGene had no revenues and had not commenced commercial operations. The Company's activities were focused on completing the IP transfer, initial corporate appointments, and laying the foundation for upcoming research partnerships and capital raising initiatives.

FINANCIAL RESULTS OF OPERATION

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net and comprehensive loss of $255,474. The loss primarily reflects $220,000 in business development and investor relations expenses, $56,000 in management and directors' fees, $19,908 in professional fees, $19,850 in connection with the amortization of intangible assets, and includes $11,312 non-cash accretion expense recognized in connection with a below-market loan from the parent company and $71,605 in deferred income tax recovery.

Spending during the period reflects the Company's focus on advancing its diabetes and obesity gene therapy program and preparing for a proposed spin-out. Short-term expenditures are expected to continue centering on corporate advisory, regulatory readiness, and strategic planning initiatives in support of these objectives.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS

The Company was incorporated on October 24, 2024. Accordingly, there are no comparative quarterly results to report for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Three months ended March 31, 2025 From incorporation to December 31, 2024
Net loss $ 255,474 $ 22,646
Comprehensive loss $ 255,474 $ 22,646
Basic and diluted loss per share $ 0.0160 $ 0.0150
Cash $ - $ -
Working capital deficiency $ 296,931 $ 1,014
Total assets $ 1,951,255 $ 1,971,105
Total liabilities $ 839,222 $ 603,598
Deficit $ 278,120 $ 22,646
Shareholders' equity $ 1,112,033 $ 1,367,507

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $296,931 and $1,014, respectively, and no cash balance at either date.

As at March 31, 2025 the Company did not have any commitments.

As at March 31, 2025, the Company had not yet generated any revenue and relied entirely on funding provided by its parent company to finance its incorporation, initial activities, and acquisition of its core intellectual property. The Company's primary source of liquidity was future equity or debt financings and the continued financial support of its parent company. The Company had a net working capital deficit as at March 31, 2025, due primarily to accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Page 4


BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

Management believes that additional equity raises, strategic partnerships, and research incentives, including potential tax credits and government cash rebates, will be required to fund operations and research and development activities over the next 12 to 24 months.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its capacity to secure additional capital through public or private offerings, debt arrangements, or other strategic transactions. There is no assurance that such funding will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, compensation to management and directors included:

  • Management consulting fees in the amount of $42,000 were invoiced by Stephen Van Deventer, Biogene's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. As at March 31, 2025, $42,000 (December 31, 2024 - $nil) was owed to Mr. Deventer for these services.
  • Management consulting fees in the amount of $14,000 were invoiced by Dr. Harendra Parekh, Biogene's Chief Research Officer. As at March 31, 2025, $14,000 (December 31, 2024 - $nil) was owed to Dr. Parekh for these services.

OUTSTANDING SHARE DATA

As at March 31, 2025:

(i) the Company had 16,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding

As at September 3, 2025:

(i) the Company had 17,600,000 common shares issued and outstanding; and
(ii) the Company had 1,000,000 stock options outstanding.
(iii) the Company had 1,450,000 RSUs outstanding

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As at March 31, 2025, the Company's financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, relating to general operating activities, and an amount due to its parent company in connection with the acquisition of intangible assets. These financial liabilities are classified and measured at amortized cost under IFRS 9. The carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and standard payment terms. No financial instruments were measured at fair value on a recurring basis, therefore, the fair value hierarchy levels under IFRS 13 are not applicable for this reporting period.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to minimal credit risk, as it does not have cash or receivables at December 31, 2024.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company's liquidity risk relates primarily to its accounts payable and amounts due to its parent. Management monitors its commitments and funding needs on an ongoing basis and expects to settle these obligations through future equity financings or strategic funding arrangements.

The Company's accounts payable and accrued liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.

Due to parent - 500,000 500,000
$ 1,014 $ 500,000 $ 501,014

Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Risk

The Company currently has no interest-bearing debt and operates primarily in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk is minimal.

As at March 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $296,931. The current liabilities as at March 31, 2025 were $296,931.

Other Market Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as all its monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company does not currently enter into hedging arrangements.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company's operations and future performance are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. Investors should carefully consider the following risks in addition to other information disclosed in this MD&A and the financial statements.

Early Stage and Limited Operating History

BioGene is a newly formed entity with no commercial revenues to date. The Company is in the research and development stage and has not yet demonstrated its ability to successfully develop, manufacture, or commercialize any product candidates. There can be no assurance that BioGene's programs will progress beyond the pre-clinical stage or generate revenues in the future. The Company will require additional funding to continue operations, and failure to secure financing may result in delays to its research programs or a write-down of intangible assets.

Dependence on Future Financing

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends on its capacity to secure additional financing to fund research activities, clinical trials, working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company may need to raise additional funds through equity issuances, debt financing, strategic alliances or other arrangements. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all, which could delay or prevent planned activities.

Research and Development Risks

The development of gene therapy and biotechnology products is inherently uncertain and involves significant scientific and technical risk. Pre-clinical programs may fail to demonstrate the desired safety or efficacy outcomes. Even if early-stage studies are successful, the Company may not be able to obtain regulatory approval to progress to clinical trials or commercial production.

BIOGENE THERAPEUTICS INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

Spin-Out Transaction Risk

The proposed spin-out from PreveCeutical Medical Inc. is subject to shareholder approval and various regulatory, legal and transactional steps. There is no guarantee that the transaction will be completed as planned or within expected timelines. Failure to complete the spin-out could impact BioGene's operational and financing plans.

Reliance on Parent Company and Related Parties

Until the spin-out is completed, BioGene relies on support from PreveCeutical, including funding and administrative functions. If this support were reduced or withdrawn before the Company can fully operate independently, it could adversely affect BioGene's ability to execute its business plan.

Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights

The Company's success depends on protecting its proprietary technologies, including patents, know-how, and trade secrets. There is no assurance that existing patent applications will result in issued patents or that issued patents will provide meaningful protection. The Company may also be subject to third-party claims of infringement, which could result in costly litigation or licensing arrangements. Loss of IP rights or infringement challenges could reduce the value of capitalized intangibles, leading to impairment charges.

Dependence on Key Personnel and Collaborators

The Company depends heavily on the expertise and continued service of its senior management, scientific advisors, research partners and external collaborators. The loss of any key personnel or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could materially impact BioGene's operations and strategic objectives.

Regulatory and Compliance Risk

Gene therapy and biopharmaceutical development are highly regulated by various health authorities in multiple jurisdictions. Regulatory requirements can change rapidly and there is no guarantee that BioGene's programs will meet the stringent standards required to obtain necessary approvals to market its products.

Economic and Market Risks

Adverse economic conditions, capital market volatility, and fluctuations in investor sentiment could restrict BioGene's access to capital. Broader market conditions may also impact potential partnerships, licensing opportunities, or commercialization prospects.

The risks described above are not an exhaustive list of all risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management, or that are currently deemed immaterial, could also affect the Company's business and future performance. Management continuously monitors these risks and seeks to mitigate them through prudent planning, partnerships, and governance practices, but there can be no assurance that such measures will eliminate all risk.

EVENTS AFTER MARCH 31, 2025

On April 1, 2025, BioGene issued 1,450,000 RSUs to directors and key management personnel, vesting over a three-year period.

On the same date, the Company granted 1,000,000 stock options to directors, key management and consultants under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. These options have an exercise price of $5.00 and vest over a three-year schedule.

On April 1, 2025, the Company also issued 1,600,000 common shares to directors to settle outstanding consulting payables.

The effective date of this report is September 3, 2025.

5. NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Description of the Transaction

Biogene is being spun out from PreveCeutical through a statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Upon completion, 12,000,000 of the 16,000,000 common shares currently held by PreveCeutical will be distributed to its shareholders on a pro rata basis.

The purpose of the spin-out is to separate Biogene's gene therapy development activities into a distinct legal entity. Following the transaction, Biogene will operate independently, with its own management team, governance structure, and financing strategy. The spin-out is intended to facilitate Biogene's ability to raise external capital and operate with strategic and financial autonomy.

Expressed in US Dollars

The spin-out is intended to enable Biogene to operate as a focused, independently governed entity. The company aims to address unmet medical needs in rare neurological and metabolic disorders using proprietary AAV-based gene therapies. The spin-out will also enable Biogene to pursue external funding, strategic partnerships, and a potential U.S. listing independent of PreveCeutical's operations.

Basis of Pro Forma Adjustments

Biogene was incorporated on October 24, 2024, and has operated independently since inception. All expenditures to date have either been settled through the issuance of equity or remain in accounts payable. PreveCeutical has not directly funded any of Biogene's activities, and there are no intercompany balances requiring elimination in the pro forma financial information.

The only balance due to PreveCeutical relates to the $500,000 non-bearing interest payable due in 24 months for the acquisition of the diabetes and obesity ("D&O") intellectual property ("IP"), which will remain outstanding following the spin-out.

Reclassification of Due to Parent: The historical balance reported as 'Due to Parent' was reclassified to 'Payable to PreveCeutical' to reflect the ongoing third-party liability structure post-spin-out.

Capitalization Table

The following table summarizes Biogene's share capitalization immediately following the spin-out:

Shareholder Category Shares Outstanding
Historical Transaction adjustment Proforma
PreveCeutical 16,000,000 (12,000,000) 4,000,000

Attention: Board of Directors

Dear Sirs and Mesdames:

Subject: Fairness Opinion

1.0 Introduction

1.01 Evans & Evans, Inc. (“Evans & Evans” or the “authors of the Opinion”) has been requested by the board of directors (the “Board”) of PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (“PreveCeutical” or the “Issuer”) to prepare a Fairness Opinion (the “Opinion”), with respect to the fairness of the plan of arrangement, as outlined in Section 1.05 below, from a financial point of view, to the shareholders of the Issuer (the “PreveCeutical Shareholders”) as at September 3, 2025.

PreveCeutical is a reporting issuer whose shares are listed for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) under the symbol “PREV”.

1.02 Unless otherwise indicated, all monetary amounts are stated in Canadian dollars.

1.03 The Issuer was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on December 15, 2014 under name “Carrara Exploration Corp.” On June 21, 2017, PreveCeutical changed its name to “PreveCeutical Medical Inc.” pursuant to a three-cornered amalgamation with PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (“PMI”) and a subsidiary of PreveCeutical, whereby PreveCeutical acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of PMI in exchange for PreveCeutical common shares resulting in the reverse takeover of PreveCeutical by PMI.

PreveCeutical Australia Pty Ltd. (“PreveCeutical Australia”), incorporated in Queensland, Australia on March 12, 2018, is a wholly owned private subsidiary of the Issuer.

On October 24, 2024, the Issuer incorporated BioGene Therapeutics Inc. (“BioGene” or “Spinco”), a wholly owned subsidiary in Texas, USA, and on October 30, 2024, BioGene Australia Pty Ltd (“BioGene Australia”) in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. As of the date of the Opinion, the Issuer’s interest in BioGene had been diluted to 89.7%. The incorporation of these two new subsidiaries supports PreveCeutical’s strategy to advance its research and development (“R&D”) efforts, particularly in collaboration with UniQuest Pty Ltd. (“UniQuest”). UniQuest is the University of Queensland’s technology transfer and

commercialization entity, responsible for managing and licensing the University’s research outputs. Research activities will be concentrated in Australia, leveraging its proximity to the University of Queensland, where ongoing work involves the development of bioreducible amino acid derivatives and peptide dendrimers.

PreveCeutical is a pre-clinical stage health sciences company that develops innovative options for preventive and curative therapies utilizing organic and nature identical products. The Issuer’s current R&D pipeline, as described by management, includes:

  1. Non-addictive analgesic peptide – PreveCeutical is developing non-addictive pain management therapies utilizing engineered peptides designed to mimic the body’s natural pain-relief mechanisms. These peptides selectively target the kappa-opioid receptor (“KOR”), a protein located in the peripheral nervous system that is involved in the regulation of pain, mood, and stress. By binding to this receptor, the peptides aim to provide potent and sustained analgesic effects without the addictive potential or adverse side effects commonly associated with conventional opioid treatments. The analgesic program involves peptide library synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, alongside pharmacokinetic assessment, and efficacy determinations in appropriate animal models of pain and inflammation. The research for the analgesic program was completed in January 2021. The Issuer is working on forming partnerships to further the development and commercialization of products under this program.

  2. Sol-Gel nasal delivery platform – The Sol-Gel platform is a water-based drug delivery system utilizing only U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved excipients and is designed to enable controlled and sustained release of therapeutics. The platform facilitates direct delivery to the brain by bypassing the blood-brain barrier, thereby improving bioavailability and potentially reducing systemic side effects. It was initially developed to support the sustained-release delivery of cannabinoid-based therapies via the nasal cavity, avoiding the digestive tract to enhance therapeutic effectiveness for conditions such as pain, inflammation, seizures, and neurological disorders. The Issuer filed an international patent application titled 'Cannabinoid Formulations and Methods of Use' to protect its sol-gel formulations for nasal cannabinoid delivery; the application was published on March 3, 2022. The Sol-Gel platform is now positioned as a broad-based drug delivery system with potential applicability across multiple therapeutic areas. Further discussion of the platform is provided in Section 1.04 of this Opinion.

  3. Sol-Gel Brain Delivery Platform for Parkinson’s Disease – The Issuer is developing treatments for central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders, including neurological and psychiatric conditions, utilizing the Sol-Gel platform described above. The platform is designed to address both chronic CNS conditions and infectious diseases affecting the CNS, such as meningitis and encephalopathies. One key area of focus is Parkinson’s disease, for which the primary pharmacological treatment is levodopa (“L-Dopa”), a dopamine precursor. Traditional oral L-Dopa administration is associated with fluctuations in brain drug concentrations, contributing to adverse effects. The Issuer’s

EVANS & EVANS, INC.


PREVECEUTICAL MEDICAL INC.

September 3, 2025

Sol-Gel L-Dopa nasal spray formulation is intended to achieve and maintain steady-state drug concentrations across the brain, deliver a sustained-release profile to minimize peak-and-valley fluctuations, support extended dosing intervals, enable substantive dose reductions, and bypass the gastrointestinal tract and peripheral organs. This delivery method may improve both patient safety and treatment compliance.

  1. Blue Scorpion Venom ("BSV") peptide program – The Issuer is advancing a cancer-targeting peptide program utilizing peptides derived from BSV. These peptides are designed to inhibit specific enzymes that facilitate the migration of cancer cells, thereby potentially limiting the spread of aggressive brain tumors. The research program was completed in October 2019. The next stages involve further drug development, validation, and preclinical and/or clinical evaluation of the lead peptide candidates. The Issuer is actively pursuing strategic partnerships to support the continued development of this program.

  2. Smart interfering ribonucleic acid ("siRNA") for the treatment of diabetes and obesity – In October 2024, the Issuer sold specific intellectual property ("IP") assets related to its gene therapy technologies for diabetes and obesity to its subsidiary BioGene. Further discussion of this transaction is included in Section 1.04 in this Opinion. The program, developed through rational design and systematic evaluation, involves the use of targeted bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release systems intended to deliver SmartsiRNA constructs to target cells. The objective is to achieve optimized gene silencing of a single gene implicated in both type 2 diabetes and obesity. The program is expected to demonstrate safety and efficacy in appropriate preclinical (murine) models, serving as a foundation for expanded preclinical evaluation. The Issuer has planned spin out this project into a separate entity to allow dedicated focus on its development, while enabling the Issuer to allocate its resources and attention to advancing its remaining four projects. The spin-out structure is intended to enhance operational focus and strategic alignment for both the Spinco and the Issuer. As of March 31, 2025, this diabetes and obesity program (the "D&O Project") was approximately 57.63% complete.

The Issuer intends to secure the market share through a business-to-business strategy with the aim to build an extensive library of intellectual properties and enter into joint venture, development, and licensing agreements with leaders in the pharmaceutical and cannabis industries.

PreveCeutical holds a patent portfolio covering its peptide technologies across multiple jurisdictions including the U.S., Europe, Canada, and Australia.

On July 11, 2019, the Issuer was named as a defendant in a lawsuit commenced in the Supreme Court of British Columbia (Tietz and Loewen v. Bridgemark Financial Corp. et al.) (the "Class Action Claim"). The Class Action Claim was brought under the British Columbia Class Proceedings Act and alleged certain misrepresentations in connection with

various private placements conducted by the defendants. On May 2, 2024, the British Columbia Securities Commission (“BCSC”) dismissed enforcement allegations against PreveCeutical and its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Stephen Van Deventer, concluding that the issues raised did not materially affect investors’ decisions or the Company’s share price. Subsequently, in June 2024, the Company commenced legal proceedings in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against its former legal counsel, alleging professional negligence in connection with advice provided regarding the disclosure at issue.

Financial Position

Evans & Evans has reviewed the unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 as prepared by management. The Issuer has total asset of approximately $362,000 mainly including intangible assets of $157,749, cash of $4,260, prepaid and deposits of $180,557, and other current assets of approximately $15,000. The Issuer has total liabilities of approximately $7.52 million mainly consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $2.97 million and convertible debt of approximately $3.8 million. The Issuer also had a long-term callable debt obligation to the CEO, with an outstanding balance of $673,967. The Issuer has not generated any revenue as of June 30, 2025.

Issuer announced a non-brokered private placement of up to 25,000,000 units at a price of $0.04 per unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase an additional share at an exercise price of $0.06 per warrant share for a period of two years from the closing of the offering.

1.04 BioGene, a subsidiary of the Issuer, is engaged in developing innovative therapies in metabolic health and gene-based treatments. A of June 30, 2025, the Issuer held a 89.07% ownership interest in BioGene. Approximately 10% of BioGene’s issued and outstanding common shares were issued to third parties to settle outstanding debts during the six months period ended June 30, 2025 at a price of $0.035 per common share. BioGene Australia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PreveCeutical supports ongoing R&D activities, capitalizing on exceptional scientific talent and the nation's commitment to advancing life sciences. Currently, BioGene Australia is engaged in research into glucagon-like peptide-1 (“GLP-1”) receptor agonists and advanced diabetes treatments, including gene therapies designed to address the growing global diabetes and obesity crisis. Through BioGene Australia, BioGene is eligible to receive a cash rebate of 43.5% from the Australian Federal Government on all qualifying R&D, clinical trial, and operational expenditures.

In October 2024, PreveCeutical, PreveCeutical Australia and BioGene entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain IP assets to BioGene. These assets include IP from ongoing research by UniQuest for PreveCeutical Australia, options to license related background IP, and other assets connected to the commercialization of bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release systems for small siRNA delivery in treating or preventing diabetes and obesity. The total purchase price for these assets was US$1,060,000, comprising US$500,000 in cash (payable within 24 months) and 16 million common shares of BioGene at a deemed price of US$0.035 per share.

The transaction aimed to consolidate PreveCeutical's dual gene therapy programs (“Dual Gene Therapy Program”) under BioGene, allowing for focused development and potential commercialization of innovative treatments targeting metabolic disorders. The collaboration leverages BioGene's expertise in gene-based therapies and PreveCeutical's research advancements, positioning both entities to address critical health challenges effectively.

BioGene is involved in addressing health challenges, particularly metabolic disorders, diabetes, and obesity. BioGene’s dual gene therapy program targeting obesity and diabetes incorporates therapeutic approaches such as Nose-to-Brain (“N2B”) delivery utilizing the Sol-Gel platform, combined with a bioresponsive self-assembling lipid nanoparticle (“bLNP”) platform designed to facilitate the effective delivery and controlled release of genetic material. A key focus of the Program has been the design and screening of a bio-responsive gene carrier-and-release (“BGCR”) system to deliver these Smart-siRNAs directly to target cells. BioGene is building on this foundation by combining the Smart-siRNA payloads and BGCR system with its proprietary bLNP and Sol-Gel intranasal delivery platforms. Together, these technologies are designed to bypass the blood-brain

barrier and deliver gene therapy agents directly to the hypothalamus, a key region regulating appetite and metabolism. The program also involves the use of metabolically stabilized, multiple exon-targeting siRNAs specifically directed against PTP1B, which have undergone preliminary validation. Accordingly, BioGene’s ongoing development efforts are focused on advancing therapies including the following:

  1. GLP-1 Receptor Agonists - BioGene is developing next-generation GLP-1 receptor agonists aimed at improving glycemic control and promoting weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity. These therapies are designed to offer superior efficacy and reduced side effects compared to existing treatments.
  2. RNA-Based Therapies - Spinco is exploring RNA-based treatments targeting rare genetic disorders, leveraging advanced RNA platforms to address specific genetic mutations. BioGene reports its preclinical data suggests strong potential for first-in-class therapies in this area.
  3. Lipid Nanoparticle (“LNP”) Delivery Systems - BioGene utilizes proprietary LNP technology to enhance the delivery and efficacy of mRNA vaccines and other therapeutics. This platform is designed to improve immune responses and durability, with initial applications targeting infectious diseases such as influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (“RSV”).

The following description of BioGene’s intellectual property is based on materials prepared by Management. BioGene’s solution for the treatment of diabetes includes the development of the Sol-Gel platform as discussed previously, a novel drug delivery system designed to offer controlled and targeted drug release, particularly via the intranasal route. This platform leverages the unique properties of Sol-Gel materials that transition from a liquid (sol) state to a gel (solid) state upon environmental changes to deliver therapeutic agents in a controlled and non-invasive manner. The Sol-Gel platform is designed to administer therapeutic compounds directly to the central nervous system via the nasal cavity, offering a non-invasive and efficient alternative to traditional delivery methods. The Sol-Gel platform includes:

  1. Intranasal Drug Delivery:
  2. Nose-to-Brain Delivery - The platform’s primary innovation lies in its ability to deliver drugs directly to the brain via the nasal route. This bypasses the blood-brain barrier, offering a more efficient means of delivering treatments for neurological and psychiatric disorders compared to traditional oral or injectable methods.
  3. Non-invasive - Intranasal delivery is non-invasive and more patient-friendly, which can improve patient compliance, especially for long-term treatments.

  4. Controlled and Sustained Release:

million of which are BioGene Preferred Shares having a par value of US$0.001 per BioGene Preferred Share. As of May 2025, BioGene had a total of 17,600,000 common shares issued and outstanding, 1,000,000 stock options outstanding, and 1,450,000 restricted stock units outstanding.

1.05 The Issuer entered into an arrangement agreement dated September 3, 2025 (the "Agreement") with BioGene, a subsidiary of PreveCeutical, pursuant to which the Issuer proposes to spin-out to the PreveCeutical Shareholders 12,000,000 common shares of BioGene (the "BioGene Spin-Out Shares") by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") in accordance with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Proposed Transaction").

Evans & Evans reviewed the draft Arrangement. A summary of the key terms of the Proposed Transaction is provided below. The reader is advised to refer to the shareholder materials provided by the Issuer for a more detailed description of the Proposed Transaction.¹

The Issuer will conduct a share reorganization whereby the existing PreveCeutical shares will be renamed and redesignated as Class A common shares (each, a "PreveCeutical Class A Share") and a new class of voting common shares (each, a "New PreveCeutical Share") will be created. Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, 12,000,000 BioGene shares (or such other number as may be determined by the board of directors of BioGene) will be distributed to holders of PreveCeutical Class A Shares ("Spinout Shares"). Each issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Share shall be exchanged for: (i) one New PreveCeutical Share; and (ii) that number of Spinout Shares equal to 12,000,000 divided by the total number of issued and outstanding PreveCeutical Class A Shares immediately prior to the effective date of the Arrangement. As part of the Agreement, voluntary resale restrictions (the "Escrow Restrictions") will be imposed on holders of the Spinout Shares, and the transfer agent for BioGene will place legends on the Spinout Shares accordingly. The Spinout Shares will be released in tranches on specified dates, commencing on or after the time the shares are listed on a stock exchange or quotation system. On completion of the Proposed Transaction, BioGene will have a total of 17.6 million common shares outstanding.

Upon completion of the Arrangement, all PreveCeutical Class A Shares will be cancelled, and shareholders will instead hold one New PreveCeutical Share and the applicable number of BioGene shares, thereby holding securities in two separate entities: PreveCeutical and BioGene. It is anticipated that BioGene will become a reporting issuer in the applicable jurisdictions.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, all outstanding equity-based instruments of PreveCeutical, including stock options, warrants, and restricted share units, will be exchanged or adjusted, as applicable, to reflect rights to acquire New PreveCeutical Shares on equivalent terms,

¹ Capitalized terms not defined in Section 1.04 of the Opinion are defined in the Agreement.

including the same exercise prices, vesting conditions, and other relevant provisions, subject to any adjustments provided for in the governing documents.

BioGene currently does not generate operating revenue and is expected to rely primarily on equity financing to meet its ongoing capital requirements. The amount of capital to be raised, and the terms of any prospective equity financing, will be determined by management as and when financing opportunities arise. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on favourable terms, or at all. Subject to completion of the Arrangement, BioGene’s estimated funding requirement is approximately $9.7 million. It is anticipated that this amount will be raised through equity financings, including private placements, specific details are not currently available. While BioGene is expected to remain private in the near term, management has indicated that plans to pursue a public listing may be implemented in the future, which could provide an additional avenue for capital raising. Management continues to take measures to ensure that the Company has sufficient funds to meet its obligations and sustain operations. These measures include securing investment in the Issuer through private placements and entering into convertible credit facility agreements with the Issuer’s founders.

The Proposed Transaction was publicly announced on June 25, 2025 (the “Announcement Date”).

4.0 Market Overview

4.01 In assessing the fairness of the Proposed Transaction as of the date of the Opinion, Evans & Evans reviewed Issuer’s and BioGene’s markets as follows.

4.02 Biopharmaceutical companies engage in R&D to identify and validate therapeutic targets and bring safe, effective treatments to market. Drug development begins with the preclinical phase, typically lasting 3 to 4 years, during which compounds fare tested for safety and efficacy in laboratory settings. If successful, an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application is submitted to the FDA, including preclinical data, proposed clinical protocols, safety information, and manufacturing details. Upon FDA approval of the IND, the drug enters clinical trial Phases 1 through 3. All clinical trials must also be reviewed and approved by an Institutional Review Board (“IRB”), including appropriate informed consent procedures. Following the completion of clinical trials, the sponsor may file a New Drug Application (“NDA”) with the FDA, presenting all safety, efficacy, and manufacturing data. The FDA evaluates the NDA to determine whether the drug demonstrates an acceptable benefit-risk profile for its intended use. The agency may approve the drug, request additional information, or deny approval.

The biotechnology market has continued to expand globally through 2024 and into 2025, supported by advancements in healthcare, agriculture, and environmental technologies.

Evans & Evans also made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, market and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of Evans & Evans and any party involved in the Proposed Transaction. Although Evans & Evans believes that the assumptions used in preparing the Opinion are appropriate in the circumstances, some or all of these assumptions may nevertheless prove to be incorrect.

7.05 The Issuer, BioGene, and all of their related parties and principals had no contingent liabilities, unusual contractual arrangements, or substantial commitments, other than in the ordinary course of business, nor litigation pending or threatened, nor judgments rendered against, other than those disclosed by management in its financial statements that would affect the evaluation or comment.

7.06 As of the date of the Opinion, all assets and liabilities of PreveCeutical and BioGene have been recorded in their accounts and financial statements and follow International Financial Reporting Standards.

7.07 There were no material changes in the financial positions of PreveCeutical and BioGene between the date of the financial statements and September 3, 2025 (i.e., the date of the Opinion) unless noted in the Opinion.

7.08 BioGene is successful in completing a financing that will provide it with sufficient capital for 12 months of operating results. Evans & Evans understands such financing will be undertaken after the effective date of the Proposed Transaction.

8.0 Review of PreveCeutical

8.01 In assessing the fairness of the Transaction, Evans & Evans considered the following analyses and factors, amongst others with respect to PreveCeutical: (1) trading price analysis; (2) guideline public company analysis; (3) precedent transaction analysis; (4) historical financings; and (5) other considerations.

8.02 As of the date of this Opinion, PreveCeutical had incurred approximately $4.34 million in R&D expenditures across all of its projects. Of this amount, approximately $2.65 million was attributable to the four projects excluding the D&O project.

Evans & Evans reviewed PreveCeutical’s trading prices over the 10, 30, 90 and 180 trading days preceding the date of the Opinion. In the 180 trading days preceding the date of the Opinion, the Issuer’s average closing share price increased by approximately $11\%$ from $\$0.027$ to $\$0.030$. Evans & Evans also reviewed Issuer’s trading prices over the 10, 30, 90

and 180 trading days preceding the Announcement Date. In the 180 days leading up to the Announcement Date, the Issuer's average closing price had increased from $0.027 to $0.036. Following the announcement of the Proposed Transaction, the average closing share price remained constantly at $0.036.

In undertaking the share price analysis, the authors of the Opinion deemed it necessary to examine the trading volume history of PreveCeutical to determine the actual ability of the PreveCeutical Shareholders to realize the implied value of their shares (i.e., sell).

In reviewing the trading volumes of the Issuer's shares at the date of the Opinion, it appears liquidity has decreased from approximately 200,000 common shares traded per day to approximately 129,000 and became relatively illiquid. In the 90 trading days preceding the date of this Opinion, approximately 10.9 million shares were traded, representing less than 2% of the total issued and outstanding shares. This indicates limited liquidity in the market and suggests that a significant number of PreveCeutical shareholders would be unable to realize the quoted trading price for a material portion of their holdings.

Average trading volumes in the 30, 90, 180 trading days prior to the Announcement Date are relatively higher than those as of the date of the Opinion. Overall, PreveCeutical Shareholders have not seen significant liquidity in their shares in the 12 months preceding the date of the Opinion.

8.03 Evans & Evans did conduct reviews of guideline public companies ("GPC") within biotechnology sector where operations were early pre-clinical stage. Evans & Evans calculated and noted that the enterprise value ("EV") to cumulative R&D Expense from 2018 to 2025 multiples of the companies selected as most similar to the four projects of the Issuer remaining post Proposed Transaction, ranged between 0.02x to 13.3x with an average of 4.5x and median of 4.3x, as shown in the below tables. The Issuer's current EV / R&D multiple is approximately 5.6x, positioning it toward the higher end of the observed range, slightly above the average and above the median.

8.05 Evans & Evans assessed the trading multiple implied by the most recent completed rounds of financing secured by the Issuer. In total, PreveCeutical has raised $748,383 through the issuance of an aggregate of 24,946,100 units at a price of $0.03 per unit. The total number of units issued represented approximately 5% of the total shares outstanding immediately prior to the financings. The implied EV / R&D multiple based on these financings is below the Issuer's current trading multiples. In addition, as of the date of the Opinion, the Issuer was in the process of completing a non-brokered private placement of up to 25,000,000 units in the capital of the Issuer at a price of $0.04 per unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000.

9.0 Review of BioGene

9.01 BioGene has incurred R&D expenditures of approximately $1.69 million in connection with its siRNA program targeting the treatment of diabetes and obesity, as indicated by management as at the current date.

10.0 Conclusions as to Fairness

10.01 Based on the above information, observations, and analyses by Evans & Evans as well as other relevant factors applying to PreveCeutical, BioGene and the Proposed Transaction, Evans & Evans is of the opinion that the Proposed Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the PreveCeutical Shareholders.

10.02 In considering fairness, from a financial point of view, Evans & Evans considered the Proposed Transaction from the perspective of the PreveCeutical Shareholders as a whole and did not consider the specific circumstances of any particular shareholder, including with regard to income tax considerations.

10.03 In arriving at the above-noted conclusions as to the fairness of the Proposed Transaction, Evans & Evans considered the following:

a. The Proposed Transaction does not change the ownership position of current shareholders of PreveCeutical. Each shareholder of PreveCeutical will hold the same number of shares in PreveCeutical post-Proposed Transaction as pre-Proposed Transaction. The pro rata allocation of a fixed number of BioGene shares to the Issuer's

EVANS & EVANS, INC.


PREVECEUTICAL MEDICAL INC.
September 3, 2025
Page 29

shareholders avoids dilution from future issuances to external investors, establishes BioGene as an independent entity with a defined shareholder base, and facilitates the divestiture of BioGene by the Issuer while preserving shareholder value.

b. Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, PreveCeutical Shareholders will own 89.07% of BioGene, prior to any subsequent financings, in proportion to their respective holdings of common shares of PreveCeutical prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction.

c. Initially, BioGene will be a private entity. There is a current plan to seek a listing of the Spinco’s common shares on a stock exchange. However, there is no guarantee of a public listing and as such PreveCeutical Shareholders should be aware that their holdings in BioGene may be illiquid in the short-term.

d. The Proposed Transaction will provide PreveCeutical Shareholders with an ownership stake in two separate specialized companies. PreveCeutical will continue to focus on the advancement of its owned four projects including non-addictive analgesic peptide, Sol-Gel Dopamine/L-Dopa Parkinson’s project, and the BSV peptide program Project, while BioGene will focus on advancing the siRNA for the D&O Project. As stated in Sections 8.0 and 9.0, biotechnology companies engaged in the development of treatments for diabetes and/or weight management generally trade at higher EV to cumulative R&D costs multiples relative to companies developing programs similar to the other four projects currently pursued by the Issuer. The Proposed Transaction may enhance overall shareholder value by allowing each resulting entity to be evaluated independently based on its distinct business focus and corresponding performance metrics. BioGene will operate as a standalone entity, enabling it to be assessed separately based on its focus on the D&O Project. As a result, BioGene may have the potential to trade at higher multiples and attract increased investor interest.

e. The Proposed Transaction will allow BioGene to focus on advancing the siRNA for D&O Project. As discussed in Section 4.05, this project has a larger market as compared to the other projects of the Issuer. However, significant funding is required to continue to advance BioGene and such funding would be highly dilutive at the current trading price of PreveCeutical.

f. On the trading day immediately preceding the Announcement Date, the Issuer’s shares closed at $0.040. On the Announcement Date, the shares closed at $0.035, which is consistent with the VWAP for the 10 trading days preceding the Announcement Date. The 10-day and 30-day VWAP preceding the date of this Opinion were also $0.035. The stability in trading prices over these periods suggests that the market has responded neutrally to the Proposed Transaction, indicating a degree of investor support or acceptance.

g. The Issuer has incurred R&D costs of over $2.6 million on the four programs mentioned above and will need additional fundings for further development and

EVANS & EVANS, INC.


PREVECEUTICAL MEDICAL INC.
September 3, 2025
Page 30

commercialization. For example, the proposed budget for the Sol-Gel Dopamine/L-Dopa Parkinson’s project in the next 18 months is approximately $250,000. The budgeted costs for the other projects are contingent upon the availability of funding.

h. For the siRNA for D&O Project, the Issuer has incurred research and development expenditures approximately $1.69 million since the project’s inception. According to management, BioGene will need approximately $20 million for preclinical trials. Given the Issuer’s current market trading price, raising this amount of capital would result in significant dilution to existing shareholders.

i. Splitting PreveCeutical and BioGene into separate companies may improve access to financing for each going forward as investor profile for the siRNA for D&O Projects may differ from those interested in the other four projects relating to Parkinson's, pain management, gene therapy, and the brain cancer oncology. Separating PreveCeutical and BioGene may expand BioGene’s access to capital for research, development and clinical trials by allowing investors that want specific ownership in the particular business of BioGene the opportunity to invest directly in BioGene rather than through PreveCeutical.

j. BioGene, following completion of the Proposed Transaction, will have a reasonable capital structure (approximately 17.6 million common shares outstanding). The anticipated number of shares outstanding establishes a corporate structure which allows room for future financings to continue to advance the siRNA for D&O Project.

k. The Proposed Transaction is expected to provide greater market awareness of PreveCeutical, BioGene and their respective projects, and offer both the Issuer and BioGene increased flexibility to develop and commercialize their projects, without unnecessary dilution to the other.

  1. Procedure For Reporting Of Fraud Or Control Weaknesses

Each employee is expected to report situations in which he or she suspects fraud or is aware of any internal control weaknesses. An employee should treat suspected fraud seriously and ensure that the situation is brought to the attention of the Committee. In addition, weaknesses in the internal control procedures of the Company that may result in errors or omissions in financial information, or that create a risk of potential fraud or loss of the Company's assets, should be brought to the attention of both management and the Committee.

To facilitate the reporting of suspected fraud, it is the policy of Company that the employee (the "whistleblower") has anonymous and direct access to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. Should a new Chairman be appointed prior to the updating of this document, the current Chairman will ensure that the whistleblower is able to reach the new Chairman in a timely manner. In the event that the Chairman of the Audit Committee cannot be reached, the whistleblower should contact the Chairman of the Board.


In addition, it is the policy of the Company that employees concerned about reporting internal control weaknesses directly to management are able to report such weaknesses to the Committee anonymously. In this case, the employee should follow the same procedure detailed above for reporting suspected fraud.

11. Hiring Policies

The Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving the Company’s hiring policies regarding partners, employees and former partners and employees of

This Plan is considered an "evergreen" plan, since the shares covered by Awards which have been settled, exercised or terminated shall be available for subsequent grants under the Plan and the number of Awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding Shares increases.

(b) To the extent any Awards (or portion(s) thereof) under this Plan terminate or are cancelled for any reason prior to exercise in full, or are surrendered or settled by the Participant, any Shares subject to such Awards (or portion(s) thereof) shall be

Each Award Agreement will be subject to the applicable provisions of this Plan and will contain such provisions as are required by this Plan and any other provisions that the Plan Administrator may direct. Any one Officer of the Corporation is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, for and on behalf of the Corporation, an Award Agreement to a Participant granted an Award pursuant to this Plan.

Except as permitted by the Plan Administrator and to the extent that certain rights may pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon death of a Participant, by will or as required by law, no assignment or transfer of Awards, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, vests any interest or right in such Awards whatsoever in any assignee or transferee and immediately upon any assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, such Awards will terminate and be of no further force or effect.

Subject to Section 8.3, the Corporation shall satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the Participant such number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.

(c) No Shares will be issued or transferred until full payment therefor has been received by the Corporation, or arrangements for such payment have been made to the satisfaction of the Plan Administrator.

The "Elected Amount" shall be an amount, as elected by the Director, in accordance with applicable tax law, between 0% and 100% of any Director Fees that would otherwise be paid in cash (the "Cash Fees").


  • 19 -

(b) Each Electing Person who elects to receive their Elected Amount in the form of DSUs will be required to file a notice of election in the form of Schedule A hereto (the “Election Notice”) with the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation: (i) in the case of an existing Electing Person, by December 31st in the year prior to the year to which such election is to apply (other than for Director Fees payable for the 2025 financial year, in which case any Electing Person who is not a U.S. Taxpayer as of the date of this Plan shall file the Election Notice by the date that is 30 days from the Effective Date with respect to compensation paid for services to be performed after such date); and (ii) in the case of a newly appointed Electing Person who is not a U.S. Taxpayer, within 30 days of such appointment with respect to compensation paid for services to be performed after such date. In the case of the first year in which an Electing Person who is a U.S. Taxpayer first becomes an Electing Person under the Plan (or any plan required to be aggregated with the Plan under Section 409A), an initial Election Notice may be filed within 30 days of such appointment only with respect to compensation paid for services to be performed after the end of the 30-day election period. If no election is made within the foregoing time frames, the Electing Person shall be deemed to have elected to be paid the entire amount of his or her Cash Fees in cash.

(c) Subject to Subsection 7.1(d), the election of an Electing Person under Section 7.1(b) shall be deemed to apply to all Cash Fees paid subsequent to the filing of the Election Notice. In the case of an Electing Person who is a U.S. Taxpayer, his or her election under Section 7.1(b) shall be deemed to apply to all Cash Fees that are earned after the Election Date. An Electing Person is not required to file another Election Notice for subsequent calendar years.

(d) Each Electing Person who is not a U.S. Taxpayer is entitled once per calendar year to terminate his or her election to receive DSUs by filing with the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation a termination notice in the form of Schedule B. Such termination shall be effective immediately upon receipt of such notice, provided that the Corporation has not imposed a “black-out” on trading. Thereafter, any portion of such Electing Person’s Cash Fees payable or paid in the same calendar year and, subject to complying with Section 7.1(b), all subsequent calendar years shall be paid in cash. For greater certainty, to the extent an Electing Person terminates his or her participation in the grant of DSUs pursuant to this Article 7, he or she shall not be entitled to elect to receive the Elected Amount, or any other amount of his or her Cash Fees in DSUs again until the calendar year following the year in which the termination notice is delivered. An election by a U.S. Taxpayer to receive the Elected Amount in DSUs for any calendar year (or portion thereof) is irrevocable for that calendar year after the expiration of the election period for that year and any termination of the election will not take effect until the first day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the termination notice in the form of Schedule C is delivered.

(e) Any DSUs granted pursuant to this Article 7 prior to the delivery of a termination notice pursuant to Section 7.1(d) shall remain in the Plan following such termination and will be redeemable only in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award Agreement, DSUs shall vest immediately upon grant.

(a) DSUs shall be settled on the date established in the Award Agreement; provided, however that if there is no Award Agreement or the Award Agreement does not establish a date for the settlement of the DSUs, then, for a Participant who is not a U.S. Taxpayer the settlement date shall be the date determined by the Participant (which date shall not be earlier than the Termination Date), and for a Participant who is a U.S. taxpayer, the settlement date shall be the date determined by the Participant in accordance with the Election Notice (which date shall not be earlier than the "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A)). On the settlement date for any DSU, the Participant shall redeem each vested DSU for:

(i) one fully paid and non-assessable Share issued from treasury to the Participant or as the Participant may direct; or
(ii) at the election of the Participant and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, a cash payment.

(b) Any cash payments made under this Section 7.4 by the Corporation to a Participant in respect of DSUs shall be calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per Share as at the settlement date.

(c) Payment of cash to Participants on the redemption of vested DSUs may be made through the Corporation's payroll or in such other manner as determined by the Corporation, if applicable.

7.5 No Additional Amount or Benefit

For greater certainty, neither a Participant to whom DSUs are granted nor any person with whom such Participant does not deal at arm's length (for purposes of the Tax Act) shall be entitled, either immediately or in the future, either absolutely or contingently, to receive or obtain any amount or benefit granted or to be granted for the purpose of reducing the impact, in whole or in part, of any reduction in the Market Price of the Shares to which the DSUs relate.

ARTICLE 8 ADDITIONAL AWARD TERMS

8.1 Dividend Equivalents

(a) Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award Agreement, an Award of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs shall include the right for such RSUs, PSUs and DSUs to be credited with dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, respectively, as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on Shares. Such dividend equivalents shall be computed by dividing: (a) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid per Share by the number of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as applicable, held by the Participant on the record date for the payment of such dividend, by (b) the Market Price at the close of the first Business Day immediately following the dividend record date, with fractions computed to three decimal places. Dividend equivalents credited to a Participant's account shall vest in proportion to the RSUs, PSUs and DSUs to which they relate, and shall be settled in accordance with Subsections 5.4, 6.6, and 7.4 respectively.

(b) The foregoing does not obligate the Corporation to declare or pay dividends on Shares and nothing in this Plan shall be interpreted as creating such an obligation.

8.2 Black-out Period

In the event that an Award expires at a time when a scheduled blackout is in place or an undisclosed material change or material fact in the affairs of the Corporation exists, the expiry of such Award will be the date that is 10 Business Days after which such scheduled blackout terminates or there is no longer such undisclosed material change or material fact.

8.3 Withholding Taxes

Notwithstanding any other terms of this Plan, the granting, vesting or settlement of each Award under this Plan is subject to the condition that if at any time the Plan Administrator determines, in its discretion, that the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding liabilities is necessary or desirable in respect of such grant, vesting or settlement, such action is not effective unless such withholding has been effected to the satisfaction of the Plan Administrator. In such circumstances, the Plan Administrator may require that a Participant pay to the Corporation the minimum amount as the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation is obliged to withhold or remit to the relevant taxing authority in respect of the granting, vesting or settlement of the


  • 22 -

Award. Any such additional payment is due no later than the date on which such amount with respect to the Award is required to be remitted to the relevant tax authority by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, as the case may be. Alternatively, and subject to any requirements or limitations under applicable law, the Corporation or any Affiliate may (a) withhold such amount from any remuneration or other amount payable by the Corporation or any Affiliate to the Participant, (b) require the sale, on behalf of the applicable Participant, of a number of Shares issued upon exercise, vesting, or settlement of such Award and the remittance to the Corporation of the net proceeds from such sale sufficient to satisfy such amount, or (c) enter into any other suitable arrangements for the receipt of such amount.

8.4 Recoupment

Notwithstanding any other terms of this Plan, Awards may be subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or other action in accordance with the terms of any clawback, recoupment or similar policy adopted by the Corporation or the relevant subsidiary of the Corporation, or as set out in the Participant's employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement, or as otherwise required by law or the rules of the Exchange, if applicable. The Plan Administrator may at any time waive the application of this Section 8.4 to any Participant or category of Participants.

ARTICLE 9 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICES

9.1 Termination of Employee, Consultant or Director

Subject to Section 9.2, unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in an employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement:

(a) where a Participant's employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated or the Participant ceases to hold office or his or her position, as applicable, by reason of voluntary resignation by the Participant or termination by the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) for Cause, then any Option or other Award held by the Participant that has not been exercised, surrendered or settled as of the Termination Date shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Termination Date;

(b) where a Participant's employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated by the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) without Cause (whether such termination occurs with or without any or adequate reasonable notice, or with or without any or adequate compensation in lieu of such reasonable notice) then any unvested Options or other Awards shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Termination Date. Any vested Options may be exercised by the Participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the Expiry Date of such Option; and (B) the date that is 90 days after the Termination Date. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (A) or (B), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option, such Award will be settled within 90 days after the Termination Date;


  • 23 -

(c) where a Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement terminates on account of his or her becoming Disabled, then any Award held by the Participant that has not vested as of the date of the Participant’s Termination Date shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Termination Date. Any vested Option may be exercised by the Participant at any time until the Expiry Date of such Option. Any vested Award other than an Option will be settled within 90 days after the Termination Date;

(d) where a Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated by reason of the death of the Participant, then any Award that is held by the Participant that has not vested as of the date of the death of such Participant shall immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Termination Date. Any vested Option may be exercised by the Participant’s beneficiary or legal representative (as applicable) at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the Expiry Date of such Option; and (B) the first anniversary of the date of the death of such Participant. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (A) or (B), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option, such Award will be settled with the Participant’s beneficiary or legal representative (as applicable) within 90 days after the date of the Participant’s death;

(e) where a Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated due to the Participant’s Retirement, then (i) any outstanding Award that vests or becomes exercisable based solely on the Participant remaining in the service of the Corporation or its subsidiary will become 100% vested, and (ii) any outstanding Award that vests based on the achievement of Performance Goals and that has not previously become vested shall continue to be eligible to vest based upon the actual achievement of such Performance Goals. Any vested Option may be exercised by the Participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the Expiry Date of such Option; and (B) the third anniversary of the Participant’s date of Retirement. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (A) or (B), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option that is described in (i), such Award will be settled within 90 days after the Participant’s Retirement. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option that is described in (ii), such Award will be settled at the same time the Award would otherwise have been settled had the Participant remained in active service with the Corporation or its subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following his or her Retirement, the Participant commences (the “Commencement Date”) employment, consulting or acting as a director of any corporation or otherwise as a service provider to any Person that carries on or proposes to carry on a business competitive with the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, any Option or other Award held by the Participant that has not been exercised or settled as of the Commencement Date shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Commencement Date;


  • 24 -

(f) a Participant’s eligibility to receive further grants of Options or other Awards under this Plan ceases as of:

(i) the date that the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) provides the Participant with written notification that the Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated, notwithstanding that such date may be prior to the Termination Date; or

(ii) the date of the death, Disability or Retirement of the Participant;

(g) notwithstanding Subsection 9.1(b), unless the Plan Administrator, in its discretion, otherwise determines, at any time and from time to time, but with due regard for Section 409A, Options or other Awards are not affected by a change of employment or consulting agreement or arrangement, or directorship within or among the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) for so long as the Participant continues to be a Director, Officer, Employee or Consultant, as applicable, of the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation); and

(h) notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9.1, in the case of an Award (other than an Option) granted to a U.S. Taxpayer that is vested or that immediately vests (in whole or in part) as a result of a Participant’s termination of service, then such Award will, subject to Section 11.6(d), be settled as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant’s termination of service, but in no event later than 90 days following the Participant’s termination of service. In the case of an Award (other than an Option) granted to a U.S. Taxpayer that remains eligible to vest (in whole or in part) following a Participant’s termination of service based upon the achievement of one or more Performance Goals, such Award will be settled at the originally scheduled settlement date for such Award.

9.2 Discretion to Permit Acceleration

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, at any time prior to, or following the events contemplated in such Section, or in an employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement between the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation and the Participant, permit the acceleration of vesting of any or all Awards or waive termination of any or all Awards, all in the manner and on the terms as may be authorized by the Plan Administrator.

ARTICLE 10 EVENTS AFFECTING THE CORPORATION

10.1 General

The existence of any Awards does not affect in any way the right or power of the Corporation or its shareholders to make, authorize or determine any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or any other change in the Corporation’s capital structure or its business, or any amalgamation, combination, arrangement, merger or consolidation involving the Corporation, to create or issue any bonds, debentures, Shares or other securities of the Corporation or to determine the rights


  • 25 -

and conditions attaching thereto, to effect the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or to effect any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise, whether or not any such action referred to in this Article 10 would have an adverse effect on this Plan or on any Award granted hereunder.

10.2 Change in Control

Except as may be set forth in an employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement between the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) and the Participant and subject to this Section 10.2, but notwithstanding anything else in this Plan or any Award Agreement, the Plan Administrator may, without the consent of any Participant, take such steps as it deems necessary or desirable, including to cause (i) the conversion or exchange of any outstanding Awards into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change in Control; (ii) outstanding Awards to vest and become exercisable, realizable, or payable, or restrictions applicable to an Award to lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon consummation of such merger or Change in Control, and, to the extent the Plan Administrator determines, terminate upon or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such merger or Change in Control; (iii) the termination of an Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise or settlement of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction the Plan Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise or settlement of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Corporation without payment); (iv) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Board in its sole discretion where such replacement would not adversely affect the holder; or (v) any combination of the foregoing. In taking any of the actions permitted under this Section 10.2, the Plan Administrator will not be required to treat all Awards similarly in the transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Options held by a Canadian Taxpayer, the Plan Administrator may not cause the Canadian Taxpayer to receive (pursuant to this Section 10.2) any property in connection with a Change in Control other than rights to acquire shares of a corporation or units of a "mutual fund trust" (as defined in the Tax Act), of the Corporation or a "qualifying person" (as defined in the Tax Act) that does not deal at arm's length (for purposes of the Tax Act) with the Corporation, as applicable, at the time such rights are issued or granted.

Notwithstanding this Section 10.2 and unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, if, as a result of a Change in Control, the Shares will cease trading on an Exchange, then the Corporation may terminate all of the Awards, other than an Option held by a Canadian Taxpayer for the purposes of the Tax Act, granted under this Plan at the time of and subject to the completion of the Change in Control transaction by paying to each holder at or within a reasonable period of time following completion of such Change in Control transaction an amount for each Award equal to the fair market value of the Award held by such Participant as determined by the Plan Administrator, acting reasonably, provided that any vested Awards granted to U.S. Taxpayers will be settled within 90 days of the Change in Control.


  • 26 -

It is intended that any actions taken under this Section 10.2 will comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to Awards granted to U.S. Taxpayers.

10.3 Reorganization of Corporation's Capital

Should the Corporation effect a subdivision or consolidation of Shares or any similar capital reorganization or a payment of a stock dividend (other than a stock dividend that is in lieu of a cash dividend), or should any other change be made in the capitalization of the Corporation that does not constitute a Change in Control and that would warrant the amendment or replacement of any existing Awards in order to adjust the number of Shares that may be acquired on the vesting of outstanding Awards and/or the terms of any Award in order to preserve proportionately the rights and obligations of the Participants holding such Awards, the Plan Administrator will, subject to the prior approval of the Exchange, if applicable, and in compliance with applicable Securities Laws, authorize such steps to be taken as it may consider to be equitable and appropriate to that end.

10.4 Other Events Affecting the Corporation

In the event of an amalgamation, combination, arrangement, merger or other transaction or reorganization involving the Corporation and occurring by exchange of Shares, by sale or lease of assets or otherwise, that does not constitute a Change in Control and that warrants the amendment or replacement of any existing Awards in order to adjust the number and/or type of Shares that may be acquired, or by reference to which such Awards may be settled, on the vesting of outstanding Awards and/or the terms of any Award in order to preserve proportionately the rights and obligations of the Participants holding such Awards, the Plan Administrator will, subject to the prior approval of the Exchange and compliance with applicable Securities Laws, if applicable, authorize such steps to be taken as it may consider to be equitable and appropriate to that end.

10.5 Immediate Acceleration of Awards

In taking any of the steps provided in Sections 10.3 and 10.4, the Plan Administrator will not be required to treat all Awards similarly and where the Plan Administrator determines that the steps provided in Sections 10.3 and 10.4 would not preserve proportionately the rights, value and obligations of the Participants holding such Awards in the circumstances or otherwise determines that it is appropriate, the Plan Administrator may, but is not required to, permit the immediate vesting of any unvested Awards.

10.6 Issue by Corporation of Additional Shares

Except as expressly provided in this Article 10, neither the issue by the Corporation of shares of any class or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any class, nor the conversion or exchange of such shares or securities, affects, and no adjustment by reason thereof is to be made with respect to the number of Shares that may be acquired as a result of a grant of Awards.


  • 27 -

10.7 Fractions

No fractional Shares will be issued pursuant to an Award. Accordingly, if, as a result of any adjustment under this Article 10 or a dividend equivalent, a Participant would become entitled to a fractional Share, the Participant has the right to acquire only the adjusted number of full Shares and no payment or other adjustment will be made with respect to the fractional Shares, which shall be disregarded.

ARTICLE 11

U.S. TAXPAYERS

11.1 Provisions for U.S. Taxpayers

Options granted under this Plan to U.S. Taxpayers may be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options qualifying under Section 422 of the Code ("ISOs"). Each Option shall be designated in the Award Agreement as either an ISO or a non-qualified stock option. If an Award Agreement fails to designate an Option as either an ISO or non-qualified stock option, the Option will be a non-qualified stock option. The Corporation shall not be liable to any Participant or to any other Person if it is determined that an Option intended to be an ISO does not qualify as an ISO. Non-qualified stock options will be granted to a U.S. Taxpayer only if (i) such U.S. Taxpayer performs services for the Corporation or any corporation or other entity in which the Corporation has a direct or indirect controlling interest or otherwise has a significant ownership interest, as determined under Section 409A, such that the Option will constitute an option to acquire "service recipient stock" within the meaning of Section 409A, or (ii) such option otherwise is exempt from Section 409A.

11.2 ISOs

The terms and conditions of any ISOs granted to a U.S. Taxpayer on the Date of Grant hereunder, including the eligible recipients of ISOs, shall be subject to the provisions of Section 422 of the Code, and the terms, conditions, limitations and administrative procedures established by the Plan Administrator from time to time in accordance with this Plan. At the discretion of the Plan Administrator, ISOs may only be granted to an individual who is an employee of the Corporation, or of a "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation" of the Corporation, as such terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code.

11.3 ISO Grants to 10% Shareholders

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, if an ISO is granted to a person who owns shares representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of shares of the Corporation or of a "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation", as such terms are defined in Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code, on the Date of Grant, the term of the Option shall not exceed five years from the time of grant of such Option and the Exercise Price shall be at least 110% of the Market Price of the Shares subject to the Option.


  • 28 -

11.4 $100,000 Per Year Limitation for ISOs

To the extent the aggregate Market Price as at the Date of Grant of the Shares for which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by any person during any calendar year (under all plans of the Corporation and any "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation", as such terms are defined in Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code) exceeds US$100,000, such excess ISOs shall be treated as non-qualified stock options.

11.5 Disqualifying Dispositions

Each person awarded an ISO under this Plan shall notify the Corporation in writing immediately after the date he or she makes a disposition or transfer of any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such ISO if such disposition or transfer is made (a) within two years from the Date of Grant or (b) within one year after the date such person acquired the Shares. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the person in such disposition or other transfer. The Corporation may, if determined by the Plan Administrator and in accordance with procedures established by it, retain possession of any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO as agent for the applicable person until the end of the later of the periods described in Section 11.5(a) or 11.5(b) above, subject to complying with any instructions from such person as to the sale of such Shares.

11.6 Section 409A of the Code

(a) This Plan will be construed and interpreted to be exempt from, or where not so exempt, to comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent required to preserve the intended tax consequences of this Plan. Any reference in this Plan to Section 409A of the Code shall also include any regulation promulgated thereunder or any other formal guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to Section 409A of the Code. Each Award shall be construed and administered such that the Award either (A) qualifies for an exemption from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or (B) satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. If an Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, (I) distributions shall only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted under section 409A of the Code, (II) payments to be made upon a termination of employment or service shall only be made upon a "separation from service" under Section 409A of the Code, (III) unless the Award specifies otherwise, each installment payment shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and (IV) in no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year in which a distribution is made except in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that an Award or payment, or the settlement or deferral thereof, is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award will be granted, paid, settled or deferred in a manner that will meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the additional tax or interest applicable under Section 409A of the Code. The Corporation reserves the right to amend this Plan to the extent it reasonably determines is necessary in order to preserve the intended tax consequences of this Plan in light of Section 409A of the Code. In no event will the Corporation or any


  • 29 -

of its subsidiaries or Affiliates be liable for any tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on a Participant under Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(b) All terms of the Plan that are undefined or ambiguous must be interpreted in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code if necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(c) The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of payment of a U.S. Taxpayer's vested Awards in the Plan under circumstances that constitute permissible acceleration events under Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, in the case of any "specified employee" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code who is a U.S. Taxpayer, distributions of non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code made in connection with a "separation from service" within the meaning set forth in Section 409A of the Code may not be made prior to the date which is six months after the date of separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the U.S. Taxpayer). Any amounts subject to a delay in payment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid as soon practicable following such six-month anniversary of such separation from service.

11.7 Section 83(b) Election

If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to an Award of Shares subject to vesting or other forfeiture conditions, the Participant shall be required to promptly file a copy of such election with the Corporation.

11.8 Application of Article 11 to U.S. Taxpayers

For greater certainty, the provisions of this Article 11 shall only apply to U.S. Taxpayers.

ARTICLE 12 AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

12.1 Amendment, Suspension, or Termination of the Plan

The Plan Administrator may from time to time, without notice and without approval of the holders of voting shares of the Corporation, amend, modify, change, suspend or terminate the Plan or any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan as it, in its discretion determines appropriate, provided, however, that:

(a) no such amendment, modification, change, suspension or termination of the Plan or any Awards granted hereunder may materially impair any rights of a Participant or materially increase any obligations of a Participant under the Plan without the consent of the Participant, unless the Plan Administrator determines


  • 30 -

such adjustment is required or desirable in order to comply with any applicable Securities Laws or Exchange requirements; and

(b) any amendment that would cause an Award held by a U.S. Taxpayer to be subject to income inclusion under Section 409A of the Code shall be null and void ab initio with respect to the U.S. Taxpayer unless the consent of the U.S. Taxpayer is obtained.

12.2 Shareholder Approval

Notwithstanding Section 12.1 and subject to any rules of the Exchange, if applicable, approval of the holders of Shares shall be required for any amendment, modification or change that:

(a) increases the percentage of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, except pursuant to the provisions under Article 10 which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting the Corporation or its capital;

(b) permits an Option Award to be exercisable beyond 10 years from its Date of Grant (except where an Expiry Date would have fallen within a blackout period of the Corporation);

(c) changes the eligible participants of the Plan; or

(d) deletes or reduces the range of amendments which require approval of shareholders under this Section 12.2.

12.3 Permitted Amendments

Without limiting the generality of Section 12.1, but subject to Section 12.2, the Plan Administrator may, without shareholder approval, at any time or from time to time, amend the Plan for the purposes of:

(a) making any amendments to the general vesting provisions of each Award;

(b) making any amendments to the provisions set out in Article 9;

(c) making any amendments to add covenants of the Corporation for the protection of Participants, as the case may be, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the good faith opinion that such additions will not be prejudicial to the rights or interests of the Participants, as the case may be;

(d) making any amendments not inconsistent with the Plan as may be necessary or desirable with respect to matters or questions which, in the good faith opinion of the Plan Administrator, having in mind the best interests of the Participants, it may be expedient to make, including amendments that are desirable as a result of changes in law in any jurisdiction where a Participant resides, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the opinion that such amendments and


  • 31 -

modifications will not be prejudicial to the interests of the Participants and Directors; or

(e) making such changes or corrections which, on the advice of counsel to the Corporation, are required for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the opinion that such changes or corrections will not be prejudicial to the rights and interests of the Participants.

ARTICLE 13

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Legal Requirement

The Corporation is not obligated to grant any Awards, issue any Shares or other securities, make any payments or take any other action if, in the opinion of the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, such action would constitute a violation by a Participant or the Corporation of any provision of any applicable statutory or regulatory enactment of any government or government agency or the requirements of any Exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed, if applicable.

13.2 No Other Benefit

No amount will be paid to, or in respect of, a Participant under the Plan to compensate for a downward fluctuation in the price of a Share, nor will any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a Participant for such purpose.

13.3 Rights of Participant

No Participant has any claim or right to be granted an Award and the granting of any Award is not to be construed as giving a Participant a right to remain as an Employee, Consultant, Officer or Director. No Participant has any rights as a shareholder of the Corporation in respect of Shares issuable pursuant to any Award until the allotment and issuance to such Participant, or as such Participant may direct, of certificates representing such Shares.

13.4 Corporate Action

Nothing contained in this Plan or in an Award shall be construed so as to prevent the Corporation from taking corporate action which is deemed by the Corporation to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on this Plan or any Award.

13.5 Conflict

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and an Award Agreement, the provisions of the Award Agreement shall govern. In the event of any conflict between or among the provisions of this Plan or any Award Agreement, on the one hand, and a Participant's employment agreement with the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation, as the case may


  • 32 -

be, on the other hand, the provisions of the employment agreement or other written agreement shall prevail.

13.6 Anti-Hedging Policy

By accepting an Award each Participant acknowledges that he or she is restricted from purchasing financial instruments such as prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of Awards.

13.7 Participant Information

Each Participant shall provide the Corporation with all information (including personal information) required by the Corporation in order to administer the Plan. Each Participant acknowledges that information required by the Corporation in order to administer the Plan may be disclosed to any custodian appointed in respect of the Plan and other third parties, and may be disclosed to such persons (including persons located in jurisdictions other than the Participant's jurisdiction of residence), in connection with the administration of the Plan. Each Participant consents to such disclosure and authorizes the Corporation to make such disclosure on the Participant's behalf.

13.8 Participation in the Plan

The participation of any Participant in the Plan is entirely voluntary and not obligatory and shall not be interpreted as conferring upon such Participant any rights or privileges other than those rights and privileges expressly provided in the Plan. In particular, participation in the Plan does not constitute a condition of employment or engagement nor a commitment on the part of the Corporation to ensure the continued employment or engagement of such Participant. The Plan does not provide any guarantee against any loss which may result from fluctuations in the market value of the Shares. The Corporation does not assume responsibility for the income or other tax consequences for the Participants and Directors and they are advised to consult with their own tax advisors.

13.9 International Participants

With respect to Participants who reside or work outside Canada and the United States, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, amend, or otherwise modify, without shareholder approval, the terms of the Plan or Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the provisions of local law, and the Plan Administrator may, where appropriate, establish one or more sub-plans to reflect such amended or otherwise modified provisions.

13.10 Successors and Assigns

The Plan shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

13.11 General Restrictions or Assignment

Except as required by law, the rights of a Participant under the Plan are not capable of being assigned, transferred, alienated, sold, encumbered, pledged, mortgaged or charged and are not


capable of being subject to attachment or legal process for the payment of any debts or obligations of the Participant unless otherwise approved by the Plan Administrator.

13.12 Severability

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision and any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be severed from the Plan.

13.13 Notices

(a) All written notices to be given by a Participant to the Corporation shall be delivered personally, e-mail or mail, postage prepaid, addressed as noted on the Corporation's SEDAR profile: Attention: Chief Financial Officer

(b) All notices to a Participant will be addressed to the principal address of the Participant on file with the Corporation. Either the Corporation or the Participant may designate a different address by written notice to the other. Such notices are deemed to be received, if delivered personally or by e-mail, on the date of delivery, and if sent by mail, on the fifth Business Day following the date of mailing. Any notice given by either the Participant or the Corporation is not binding on the recipient thereof until received.

13.14 Effective Date

This Plan becomes effective on a date to be determined by the Plan Administrator, subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation.

13.15 Governing Law

This 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, without any reference to conflicts of law rules.

13.16 Submission to Jurisdiction

The Corporation and each Participant irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of competent jurisdiction in the Province of British Columbia in respect of any action or proceeding relating in any way to the Plan, including, without limitation, with respect to the grant of Awards and any issuance of Shares made in accordance with the Plan.
