MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR
(containing information as at June 16, 2025 unless otherwise specified)

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This management information circular (“Circular”) is provided in connection with the solicitation of proxies by management of Ronin Ventures Corp. (the “Company”) for use at an annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of the holders (“Shareholders”) of common shares (“Common Shares”) in the capital of the Company. The Meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 16, 2025 at 10:00 AM (Vancouver time) at 228-1122 Mainland Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada V6B 5L1 or at such other time or place to which the Meeting may be adjourned, for the purposes set forth in the notice of annual general meeting accompanying this Circular (the “Notice”).

Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone or other permitted means of electronic communication. In accordance with National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (“NI 54-101”), arrangements have been made with brokerage houses and other intermediaries, clearing agencies, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of the Common Shares held of record by such persons and the Company may reimburse such persons for reasonable fees and disbursements incurred by them in doing so. The costs thereof will be borne by the Company.

These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of Common Shares. If you are a non-registered owner of Common Shares, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of Common Shares have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary (“Intermediary”) holding Common Shares on your behalf.

Accompanying this Circular (and filed with applicable securities regulatory authorities) is a form of proxy for use at the Meeting (a “Proxy”). Each Shareholder who is entitled to attend at meetings of Shareholders is encouraged to participate in the Meeting and all Shareholders are urged to vote on matters to be considered in person or by proxy.

All time references in this Circular are references to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada time.

APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

Appointment of a Proxy

Those Shareholders who wish to be represented at the Meeting by proxy must complete and deliver a proper Proxy to Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”), at Proxy Department, 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, ON, M5J 2Y1.

The persons named as proxyholders in the Proxy accompanying this Circular are directors or officers of the Company, or persons designated by management of the Company, and are representatives of the Company’s management for the Meeting. A Shareholder who wishes to appoint some other person (who need not be a Shareholder) to attend and act for him, her or it and on his, her or its behalf at the Meeting other than the management nominee designated in the Proxy may do so by either: (i) crossing out the names of the management nominees AND legibly printing the other person’s name in the blank space provided in the accompanying Proxy; or (ii) completing another valid form of proxy. In either case, the completed form of proxy must be delivered to the Transfer Agent, at the place and within the time specified herein for the deposit of proxies. A Shareholder who appoints a proxy who is someone other than the management representatives named in the Proxy should notify such alternative nominee of the appointment, obtain the nominee’s consent to act as proxy, and provide instructions on how the Common Shares are to be voted. The nominee should bring personal identification to the


Meeting. In any case, the Proxy should be dated and executed by the Shareholder or an attorney authorized in writing, with proof of such authorization attached (where an attorney executed the Proxy).

In order to validly appoint a proxy, Proxies must be received by the Transfer Agent, at 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, ON, M5J 2Y1, at least 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. After such time, the chairman of the Meeting may accept or reject a Proxy delivered to him in his discretion but is under no obligation to accept or reject any particular late Proxy.

Revoking a Proxy

A registered shareholder who has returned a proxy may revoke it at any time before it has been exercised. A Shareholder who has validly given a proxy may revoke it for any matter upon which a vote has not already been cast by the proxyholder appointed therein. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked with an instrument in writing signed and delivered to either the registered office of the Company or the Transfer Agent at 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, ON, M5J 2Y1, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or deposited with the chairman of such Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment thereof. The document used to revoke a proxy must be in writing and completed and signed by the Shareholder or his or her attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized.

Also, a Shareholder who has given a proxy may attend the Meeting in person (or where the Shareholder is a corporation, its authorized representative may attend), revoke the proxy (by indicating such intention to the chairman before the proxy is exercised) and vote in person (or withhold from voting).

Only registered Shareholders have the right to revoke a proxy. Non-registered Shareholders who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their Intermediary to revoke the proxy on their behalf. Intermediaries may have different rules and procedures relating to proxy instructions and non-registered Shareholders should contact their Intermediary for additional information.

Signature on Proxies

The Proxy must be executed by the Shareholder or his or her duly appointed attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer whose title must be indicated. A Proxy signed by a person acting as attorney or in some other representative capacity should indicate that person's capacity (following his or her signature) and should be accompanied by the appropriate instrument evidencing qualification and authority to act (unless such instrument has been previously filed with the Company).

Voting of Proxies

Each Shareholder may instruct his, her or its proxy how to vote his, her or its Common Shares by completing the blanks on the Proxy. Only registered Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting.

The Common Shares represented by the enclosed Proxy will be voted or withheld from voting on any motion, by ballot or otherwise, in accordance with any indicated instructions. If a Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Common Shares will be voted accordingly. In the absence of such direction, such Common Shares will be voted FOR THE RESOLUTIONS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY AND BELOW. If any amendment or variation to the matters identified in the Notice is proposed at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or if any other matters properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the accompanying Proxy confers discretionary authority to vote on such amendments or variations or such other matters according to the best judgment of the appointed proxyholder. Unless otherwise stated, the Common Shares represented by a valid Proxy will be voted in favour of the election of nominees set forth in this Circular except where a vacancy among such nominees occurs prior to the Meeting, in which case, such Common Shares may be voted in favour of another nominee in the proxyholder's discretion. As at the date of this Circular, management of the Company knows of no such amendments or variations or other matters to come before the Meeting.

Advice to Beneficial Shareholders

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to a substantial number of the Shareholders who do not hold their Common Shares in their own names. Shareholders who do not hold their Common Shares in their own names (referred to in this Circular as “Beneficial Shareholders”) should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those shares will not be registered in the Shareholder’s name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for The Canadian Depositary for Securities Limited, which acts as nominees for many Canadian brokerage firms). Common Shares held by brokers or their nominees can only be voted (for or against resolutions) upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, the broker/nominees are prohibited from voting shares for their clients. The Company does not know for whose benefit the Common Shares registered in the name of CDS & Co. or other brokers/agents are held. Therefore, Beneficial Shareholders should ensure that instructions respecting the voting of their Common Shares are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Non-registered holders who have not objected to their Intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as “non-objecting beneficial owners (“NOBOs”). Those non-registered holders who have objected to their Intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as “objecting beneficial owners” (“OBOs”).

The Company does not intend to pay for Intermediaries to deliver the Meeting materials and Form 54-101F7 – Request for Voting Instructions Made by Intermediary to OBOs. As a result, OBOs will not receive the Meeting materials unless their Intermediary assumes the costs of delivery.

Generally, non-registered shareholders who have not waived the right to receive Meeting materials will receive either a voting instruction form or a form of proxy. Applicable regulatory policy requires intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”). Broadridge typically provides a scannable voting instruction form in lieu of the Instrument of Proxy, mails those forms to the Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the voting instruction forms to Broadridge. Alternatively, Beneficial Shareholders sometimes are provided with a toll-free telephone number or website information to deliver the Beneficial Shareholder’s voting instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares to be represented at the Meeting. Beneficial Shareholder receiving a voting instruction form cannot use that voting instruction form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting as the voting instruction form must be returned as directed by Broadridge well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. Accordingly, it is strongly suggested that Beneficial Shareholders return their completed voting instruction form as directed by Broadridge well in advance of the Meeting.

All references to Shareholders in this Circular, the Instrument of Proxy and the Notice are to Shareholders of record unless specifically stated otherwise. Where documents are stated to be available for review or inspection, such items will be made available upon request to registered Shareholders who produce proof of their identity.

Advance Notice Policy

The Company’s Advance Notice Policy and the provisions regarding nominations of directors in the Articles of the Company set forth procedures for Shareholders to nominate a person for election as a director of the Company and stipulates a deadline by which Shareholders must notify the Company of their intention to nominate directors and information that must be provided in respect of the nominating Shareholder and their director nominee(s).

Appointment of Auditor

Management is recommending that Shareholders vote to re-appoint Crowe MacKay, LLP, of Vancouver, British Columbia, as auditors of the Company to hold office until the next annual meeting of Shareholders and to authorize the directors to fix their remuneration.

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxies given pursuant to this solicitation will be voted for the re-appointment of Crowe MacKay, LLP as auditors of the Company to hold office for the ensuing year at a remuneration to be fixed by the directors.

Approval of Stock Option Plan

Under the policies of the Exchange, a “rolling” stock option plan must be approved on a yearly basis by Shareholders. Accordingly, the Shareholders will be asked to pass an ordinary resolution approving the Company’s 10% rolling stock option plan (the “Plan” or “Option Plan”). The details of the Plan are set forth below. Management recommends, and the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote in favour of, the approval of the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive to bona fide employees, directors, officers, management companies and consultants who provide services to the Company, and to reduce the cash compensation the Company would otherwise have to pay. The Plan will also assist the Company in attracting, retaining and motivating employees, directors, officers, management companies and consultants.

The following summary of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan. A full copy of the Plan will be available at the Meeting for review by Shareholders. Shareholders may also obtain copies of the Plan from the Company prior to the Meeting on written request.

Eligible Participants. While the Company is a CPC, stock options (“Options”) may only be granted under the Plan to directors and senior officers of the Company (collectively, the “Directors”), and where permitted by applicable securities laws, a technical consultant whose particular industry expertise in relation to the business of the vendor(s) or target company, as the case may be, is required to evaluate the proposed Qualifying Transaction (collectively, the “Consultants”), or a company, all of whose securities are owned by such a Director or Consultant, or to an Eligible Charitable Organization (as defined in Policy 4.4 of the Exchange). The Board, in its discretion, determines which of the eligible participants will be awarded Options under the Plan.

Number of Shares Reserved. The number of Common Shares which may be issued pursuant to Options granted under the Plan may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares at the date of granting of Options.


Limitations. Under the Plan, the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable to insiders of the Company (as a group) pursuant to all Security Based Compensation (as that term is defined in Policy 4.4 of the Exchange policy manual) must not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issuable to insiders of the Company (as a group) pursuant to all Security Based Compensation granted or issued within any 12-month period must not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The aggregate number of Options granted to any one person (including companies wholly-owned by that person) in a 12-month period must not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, calculated on the date the Option is granted, together with all the Company's other grants or issuances of Security Based Compensation. The aggregate number of Options granted to any one Consultant in a 12-month period must not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, calculated at the date the Option is granted, together with all the Company's other grants or issuances of Security Based Compensation. The aggregate number of Common Shares which may be purchased by the exercise of Options granted to any Eligible Charitable Organizations in a 12-month period must not exceed 1% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, calculated at the date the Option is granted, together with all the Company's other grants or issuances of Security Based Compensation. While the Company is a CPC, it is prohibited from granting Options to any person providing Investor Relations Activities (as that term is defined in Policy 1.1 of the Exchange policy manual). If the Company's Common Shares are listed on the Exchange and it is no longer a CPC, the aggregate number of Common Shares which may be purchased by the exercise of Options granted to all persons providing Investor Relations Activities to the Company must not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares in any 12-month period, calculated at the date an Option is granted to any such person. Exchange and disinterested Shareholder approvals are required in accordance with the Exchange policies if any of these limitations are exceeded (at any time). Investor Relations Service Providers (as that term is defined in the Exchange policy manual) may not receive any Security Based Compensation other than Options, and Investor Relations Service Providers may not receive Options for as long as the shares of the Company are listed on the NEX.

Exercise Price. The exercise price of Options granted under the Plan is determined by the Board, provided that it is not less than the Discounted Market Price (as that term is defined in the Exchange policy manual), or such other minimum price as is permitted by the Exchange in accordance with the policies in effect at the time of the grant, or, if the Common Shares are no longer listed on the Exchange, then such other exchange or quotation system on which the Common Shares are listed or quoted for trading. The exercise price of Options granted to insiders may not be decreased without disinterested Shareholder approval at the time of the proposed amendment. However, that for the time the Company is a CPC, such exercise price per Common Share subject to an Option shall not be less than the greater of the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") share price and the Discounted Market Price.

Term of Options. Subject to the termination and change of control provisions noted below, the term of any Options granted under the Plan is determined by the Board and may not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

Vesting. All Options granted pursuant to the Plan will be subject to such vesting requirements as may be prescribed by the Exchange, if applicable, or as may be imposed by the Board. Options issued to persons retained to provide Investor Relations Activities must vest in stages over 12 months with no more than one-quarter of the Options vesting in any three-month period, commencing three months after the date of grant.

Hold Period. In addition to any resale restrictions under securities laws, and any other circumstance for which the Exchange hold period may apply, where Options are granted to insiders of the Company, Consultants or where the exercise price includes a discount as permitted by the Exchange, the Options and any Common Shares issued on the exercise of such Options must be legended with a four month Exchange hold period commencing on the date the Options are granted.

Termination. An Option may expire on such earlier date or dates as may be fixed by the Board, subject to earlier termination in the event the optionee ceases to be eligible under the Plan by reason of death, retirement or otherwise. If an optionee ceases to be eligible under the Plan by reason of being dismissed for cause from any such position, all unexercised Option rights will be immediately terminated. If an optionee ceases to be eligible under the Plan by any reason other than termination for cause or as a result of death, the optionee will have a right for a period of the earlier of: (a) 90 days from the date of the optionee ceasing to be eligible and (b) the normal expiry date of the Options, to exercise the Options under the Plan, with all unexercised Options terminating immediately upon expiration of such period. If an optionee engaged in providing Investor Relations Activities, as that term is defined in the Exchange policy manual, to the Company ceases to be employed in providing such Investor Relations Activities, such optionee shall have the right for a period of 30 days (or until the normal expiry date of the Option rights of such optionee if earlier) from the date of ceasing to provide such Investor Relations Activities to exercise the Option under the Plan with respect to all optioned Common Shares of such optionee to the extent they were exercisable on the date of ceasing to provide such Investor Relations Activities. Upon the expiration of such 30-day period all unexercised Option rights of that

  • 10 -

optionee shall immediately become terminated and shall lapse notwithstanding the original term of the Option granted to such optionee under the Plan. Options granted to Eligible Charitable Organizations must expire at the earlier of (i) ten years from the date of grant; and (ii) 90 days after the optionee ceases to be an Eligible Charitable Organization.

Escrow. For the time that the Company is a CPC, no Option granted pursuant to the Plan may be granted unless the optionee first enters into the Company's escrow agreement in Form 2F of the Exchange dated March 1, 2022 (the "Escrow Agreement") among Computershare Investor Services Inc., as escrow agent, the Company and each of the securityholders of the Company party to the Escrow Agreement, agreeing to deposit the options, and the Common Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such options, into escrow until the issuance of the Final QT Exchange Bulletin and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and Policy 2.4 of the Exchange. All options granted prior to the date of the Final QT Exchange Bulletin (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) and all Common Shares that were issued upon the exercise of options prior to the date of the Final QT Exchange Bulletin will be released from escrow on the date of the Final QT Exchange Bulletin, other than options that were granted prior to the IPO with an exercise price that is less than the IPO share price and any Common Shares that were issued pursuant to the exercise of such options which will be released from escrow in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and Policy 2.4 of Exchange.

Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to approve, with or without variation, the following ordinary resolution:

“BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

(a) the Company’s Stock Option Plan be approved, and that in connection therewith a maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares at the time of each grant be approved for granting as options; and
(b) any director or officer of the Company be authorized and directed to do all acts and things and to execute and deliver all documents required, as in the opinion of such director or officer may be necessary or appropriate in order to give effect to this resolution.”

A copy of the Plan is available on request from the Company.

Management of the Company believes the approval of the Plan as described above is in the best interests of the Company and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the ordinary resolution approving the Plan.

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

Management functions of the Company are not to any substantial degree performed by anyone other than by the directors or executive officers of the Company.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance

Corporate governance relates to the activities of the Board, the members of which are elected by and are accountable to the Shareholders, and takes into account the role of the individual members of management who are appointed by the Board and charged with the day to day management of the Company. The Canadian Securities Administrators ("CSA") have adopted National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines, which provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for reporting issuers such as the Company. In addition, the CSA have implemented National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, which prescribes certain disclosure by the Company of its corporate governance practices. This disclosure is presented below.

Board of Directors

The composition of the Board currently consists of the following three (3) members: Anthony Zelen, Lance Morginn and Robert Birmingham. It is proposed that all three (3) individuals will be nominated at the Meeting.

A director is independent if he or she has no direct or indirect "material relationship" with the Company. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of the director's independent judgment. Anthony Zelen is not independent as he is currently the CEO, CFO and Corporate Secretary of the Company. Lance Morginn and Robert Birmingham are independent directors.

The Board facilitates its independent supervision over management by having Board meetings and by establishing and implementing prudent corporate governance policies and procedures.

Other Directorships

The following table sets forth the current directors of the Company who are also directors of other reporting issuers as at the date of this Circular:

Name Name of other reporting issuer

  • 15 -

Ethical Business Conduct

Some of the directors of the Company also serve as directors and officers of other companies engaged in similar business activities. As such, the Board must comply with the conflict of interest provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), as well as the relevant securities regulatory instruments, in order to ensure that directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions and agreements in respect of which a director or officer has a material interest. Any interested director is required to declare the nature and extent of his interest and is not entitled to vote at meetings of directors which evoke any such conflict.

Nomination of Directors

The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to the Shareholders for election at the annual general meeting. The Board takes into account the number of directors required to carry out the Board's duties effectively and to maintain diversity of views and experience. The Board has not established a nominating committee and this function is currently performed by the Board as a whole.

Compensation

To determine compensation payable, the Board will review compensation paid for directors and executive officers of companies of similar size and stage of development and determine an appropriate compensation reflecting the need to provide incentive and compensation for the time and effort expended by the directors and senior management while taking into account the financial and other resources of the Company and the rules and policies of the Exchange, including compensation restrictions for CPCs under Exchange Policy 2.4 (while the Company is a CPC). In setting the compensation, the Board intends to annually review the performance of the senior officers in light of the Company's objectives and consider other factors that may have impacted the success of the Company in achieving its objectives.

Board Committees

The Board currently has no standing committees other than the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board to assist in monitoring: (i) the integrity of the financial statements of the Company; (ii) the compliance by the Company with the legal and regulatory requirements; and (iii) the qualification, appointment, independence and performance of the Company's external auditors and senior financial executives.

Assessments

Neither the Company nor the Board has determined formal means or methods to regularly assess the Board, its Audit Committee, or the individual directors with respect to their effectiveness and contributions. Effectiveness is subjectively measured by comparing actual corporate results with stated objectives. The contributions of an individual director is informally monitored by the other Board members, having in mind the business strengths of the individual and the purpose of originally nominating the individual to the Board.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

Audit Committee Disclosure

Pursuant to Section 224(1) of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees ("NI 52-110") the Company is required to have an audit committee (the "Committee") comprised of not less than three directors, a majority of whom are not officers, control persons or employees of the Company or an affiliate of the Company. NI 52-110 requires the Company, as a venture issuer, to disclose annually in its Circular certain information concerning the constitution of its audit committee and its relationship with its independent auditor, as set forth below.

The primary function of the Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by: (i) reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to regulatory authorities and Shareholders; (ii) reviewing the systems for internal corporate controls which have been established by the Board and management; and (iii) overseeing the Company's financial reporting processes generally. In meeting these responsibilities the 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 Board. The Committee is also mandated to review and approve all material related party transactions.


Composition of the Audit Committee

The Committee is comprised of the following members: Anthony Zelen, Lance Morginn and Robert Birmingham. Two members are considered to be independent directors. Mr. Zelen is not considered to be independent as he is a senior officer of the Company. Each member of the Committee is considered to be financially literate, as defined by NI 52-110, in that they have 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 the Company’s financial statements.

The members of the Committee are elected by the Board at its first meeting following the annual shareholders’ meeting. Unless a chair is elected by the full Board, the members of the Committee designate a chair by a majority vote of the full Committee membership. Lance Morginn is the current chair of the Audit Committee.

Relevant Education and Experience

All three Committee members have the ability to read and understand 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 the Company’s financial statements and are therefore considered “financially literate”.

Anthony Zelen: Mr. Zelen has over 25 years of experience in finance, investor relations, start-ups and corporate development. He has served as a director and officer for a number of public companies listed both in the United States and Canada as well as serving on the audit committee for several of them. He has served on audit committees and has knowledge and financial skills required for public companies including analyzing financial statements and commentary of the same.

Lance Morginn: Mr. Morginn served as the Co-founder, President and Director of BIGG Digital Assets Inc. since January 2015. He has extensive experience engaging in the process of the preparation of financial statements and analysis and commentary of the same.

Robert Birmingham: Mr. Birmingham has over 14 years’ experience as a director and officer of public and private companies and has been involved in a variety of matters requiring financial literacy. Mr. Birmingham is currently a director of a other public companies. Mr. Birmingham holds a Business Degree from Capilano University.

The Audit Committee’s Charter

The Company has adopted a Charter of the Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule “A”.

Audit Committee Oversight

Since the commencement of the Company’s most recently completed financial year, the Board has not failed to adopt a recommendation of the Committee to nominate or compensate an external auditor.

Reliance on Certain Exemptions

At no time since March 1, 2024, the commencement of the Company’s most recently completed financial year ended February 28, 2025, has the Company relied on the exemption in Section 2.4 of NI 52-110 (De Minimis Non-audit Services), the exemptions in Subsection 6.1.1(4) (Circumstance Affecting the Business or Operations of the Venture Issuer), Subsection 6.1.1(5) (Events Outside Control of Member), Subsection 6.1.1(6) (Death, Incapacity or Resignation) or an exemption from NI 52-110, in whole or in part, granted under Part 8 of NI 52-110 (Exemptions).

The Company is relying on the exemption in section 6.1 of NI 52-110, which exempts venture issuers, as defined in NI 52-110, from the requirements of Parts 3 (Composition of the Audit Committee) and 5 (Reporting Obligations) of NI 52-110.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Committee has not adopted specific policies and procedures for the engagement of non-audit services. Subject to the requirements of NI 52-110, the engagement of non-audit services is considered by the Board, and where applicable the Committee, on a case-by-case basis.

The term "related party" includes (i) all directors, officers, employees, consultants and their associates (as that term is defined in the Securities Act (British Columbia)), as well as all entities with common directors, officers, employees and consultants (each "general related parties"), and (ii) all other


individuals and entities having beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, directly or indirectly securities of the Company carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all of the Company's outstanding voting securities (each "10% shareholders").

Related party transactions involving general related parties which are not material to the Company require review and approval by the Committee. Related party transactions that are material to the Company or that involve 10% shareholders require approval by the Board, following review thereof by the Committee and the Committee providing its recommendation thereon to the Board.

8. Non-Audit Services

All non-audit services to be provided to the Company or its subsidiary entities by the Company's auditor must be pre-approved by the Committee.

9. Submission Systems and Treatment of Complaints

The Committee is responsible for establishing procedures for:

(a) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters; and
(b) the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Company of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

The Committee is responsible for reviewing complaints and concerns that are brought to the attention of the Chair of the Audit Committee and for ensuring that any such complaints and concerns are appropriately addressed. The Committee shall report quarterly to the Board on the status of any complaints or concerns received by the Committee.

10. 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 Chair of the Audit Committee. Should a new Chair be appointed prior to the updating of this document, current Chair will ensure that the whistleblower is able to reach the new Chair in a timely manner. In the event that the Chair of the Audit Committee cannot be reached, the whistleblower should contact the Chair of the Board of Directors. Access to the names and place of employment of the Company's Directors can be found in the Company's website.

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 the present and former auditor of the Company.
