VOYAGEUR PHARMACEUTICALS LTD. MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

INTRODUCTION

THIS MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR ("INFORMATION CIRCULAR") IS PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOLICITATION BY MANAGEMENT OF VOYAGEUR PHARMACEUTICALS LTD. (THE "CORPORATION" OR "VOYAGEUR") of proxies from the holders of common shares in the capital of the Corporation (the " Common Shares ") for the annual general and special meeting of the shareholders (the " Shareholders ") of the Corporation (the " Meeting ") to be held on Wednesday, September 28, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of DS Lawyers Canada LLP, Suite 800, 333 - 7th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, or at any adjournment thereof for the purposes set out in the accompanying notice of meeting (" Notice of Meeting ").

In order to protect the health and safety of Shareholders and the broader community, any - persons with symptoms of Covid 19 will not be permitted entry and the Meeting will otherwise be conducted in accordance with the requirements of any applicable provincial or federal public health directives. The Corporation strongly encourages Shareholders to vote by proxy in advance of the Meeting.

As COVID-19 is an evolving situation, the Corporation will continue to monitor and review provincial and federal governmental guidance in order to assess and implement measures to reduce the risk of spreading the virus at the Meeting, which may include potentially adjourning, postponing or changing the format of the Meeting. The Corporation will provide updates to any arrangements in respect of the Meeting by way of news release. Shareholders are encouraged to monitor the Corporation's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com, where copies of such news releases, if any, will be posted.

Although it is expected that the solicitation of proxies will be primarily by mail, proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone, facsimile, internet, email or other proxy solicitation services. 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 Corporation may reimburse such persons for reasonable fees and disbursements incurred by them in doing so. The costs thereof will be borne by the Corporation.

APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

The persons named (the " Management Nominees ") in the enclosed instrument of proxy (" Instrument of Proxy ") have been selected by the directors of the Corporation (the " Board " or the " Board of Directors ") and have indicated their willingness to represent as proxy the Shareholder who appoints them. A Shareholder has the right to designate a person (whom need not be a Shareholder) other than the Management Nominees to represent him or her at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by inserting in the space provided for that purpose on the Instrument of Proxy the name of the person to be designated and by deleting therefrom the names of the Management Nominees, or by completing another proper form of proxy and delivering the same to the transfer agent of the Corporation. Such Shareholder should notify the nominee of the appointment, obtain the nominee's consent to act as proxy and should provide instructions on how the Shareholder's Common Shares are to be voted. The nominee should bring personal identification with him to the Meeting. In any case, the form of proxy should be dated and

2

executed by the Shareholder or an attorney authorized in writing, with proof of such authorization attached (where an attorney executed the proxy form). In addition, a proxy may be revoked by a Shareholder personally attending at the Meeting and voting his Common Shares.

A form of proxy will not be valid for the Meeting or any adjournment thereof unless it is completed and delivered to the Corporation's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, by mail at 100 Adelaide Street West, Suite 301, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5H 4H1, Attention: Proxy Department; by facsimile to 1-416-595-9593; or online with your 12-digit control number at www.voteproxyonline.com, at least forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of Alberta, before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Late proxies may be accepted or rejected by the Chairman of the Meeting in his discretion, and the Chairman is under no obligation to accept or reject any particular late proxy.

A Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it as to any matter upon which a vote has not already been cast pursuant to the authority conferred by the proxy. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by depositing an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by his authorized attorney in writing, or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, either at the registered office of the Corporation or with TSX Trust Company, by mail at 100 Adelaide Street West, Suite 301, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5H 4H1, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or by depositing the instrument in writing with the Chairman of such Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or at any adjournment thereof. In addition, a proxy may be revoked by the Shareholder personally attending the Meeting and voting his Common Shares.

ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Shareholders, as a substantial number of Shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through their brokers, intermediaries, trustees or other persons, or who otherwise do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (" Beneficial Shareholders ") should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders who appear on the records maintained by the Corporation's registrar and transfer agent as registered holders of Common Shares will be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by a broker, those Common Shares will, in all likelihood, not be registered in the Shareholder's name. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Common Shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker's client can only be voted (for or against resolutions) at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the broker's clients. Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Existing regulatory policy requires brokers and other intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of Shareholders' meetings. The various brokers and other intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their Common Shares are voted at the Meeting. The form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is substantially similar to the Instrument of Proxy provided directly to registered Shareholders by the Corporation. However, its purpose is

3

limited to instructing the registered Shareholder (i.e., the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The vast majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (" Broadridge ") in Canada. Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the Internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder who receives a Broadridge voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. The voting instruction forms must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of Common Shares must otherwise be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Common Shares voted. If you have any questions respecting the voting of Common Shares held through a broker or other intermediary, please contact that broker or other intermediary for assistance.

Beneficial Shareholders who have not objected to their intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Corporation are referred to as non-objecting beneficial owners or "NOBOs". Those Beneficial Shareholders who have objected to their intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Corporation are referred to as objecting beneficial owners or "OBOs".

Pursuant to NI 54-101, the Corporation has distributed copies of proxy-related materials in connection with this Meeting (including this Information Circular) indirectly to all Beneficial Shareholders. The Corporation is not relying on the notice and access delivery procedures outlined in NI 54-101 to distribute copies of the proxy related materials in connection with the Meeting.

The Corporation will not be paying for intermediaries to deliver to OBOs (who have not otherwise waived their right to receive proxy-related materials) copies of the proxy-related materials and related documents. Accordingly, an OBO will not receive copies of the proxy-related materials and related documents unless the OBO's intermediary assumes the costs of delivery.

Although a Beneficial Shareholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting Common Shares registered in the name of his broker, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered Shareholder and vote the Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered Shareholder, should enter their own names in the blank space on the form of proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker's agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker well in advance of the Meeting.

All references to Shareholders in this Information Circular and the accompanying Instrument of Proxy and Notice of Meeting are to registered Shareholders unless specifically stated otherwise.

VOTING OF PROXIES

Each Shareholder may instruct his proxy how to vote his Common Shares by completing the blanks on the Instrument of Proxy. All Common Shares represented at the Meeting by properly executed proxies will be voted or withheld from voting (including the voting on any ballot), and where a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon has been specified in the Instrument of Proxy, the Common Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with such specification. In the absence of any such specification as to voting on the Instrument of

4

Proxy, the Management Nominees, if named as proxy, will vote in favour of the matters set out therein.

The enclosed Instrument of Proxy confers discretionary authority upon the Management Nominees, or other persons named as proxy, with respect to amendments to or variations of matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, the Corporation is not aware of any amendments to, variations of or other matters which may come before the Meeting. In the event that other matters come before the Meeting, then the Management Nominees intend to vote in accordance with the judgment of management of the Corporation.

QUORUM

The by-laws of the Corporation currently provide that a quorum of Shareholders is present at a meeting of Shareholders of the Corporation if at least two (2) holders of not less than ten (10%) percent of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote at the Meeting are present in person or by proxy.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

The Corporation is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. As at the effective date of this Information Circular (the " Effective Date "), which is August 25, 2022, 114,638,357 Common Shares are issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable. No other shares of any other class are issued or outstanding. The Common Shares are the only shares entitled to be voted at the Meeting, and holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote for each Common Share held.

Holders of Common Shares of record at the close of business on August 23, 2022 (the " Record Date ") are entitled to vote such Common Shares at the Meeting on the basis of one vote for each Common Share held except to the extent that, (a) the holder has transferred the ownership of any of his Common Shares after the Record Date, and (b) the transferee of those Common Shares produces properly endorsed share certificates, or otherwise establishes that he owns the Common Shares, and demands not later than ten (10) days before the day of the Meeting that his name be included in the list of persons entitled to vote at the Meeting, in which case the transferee will be entitled to vote his Common Shares at the Meeting.

To the knowledge of the Board of Directors and the executive officers of the Corporation, as at the Effective Date, no person or company beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or controls or directs, voting securities carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of voting securities of the Corporation.

PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

To the knowledge of the Board of Directors, the only matters to be brought before the meeting are those matters set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

==> picture [9 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

Receipt of Financial Statements

The Corporation will place before the Meeting the audited financial statements for the financial year ended November 30, 2021, together with the auditors' report thereon (the " Annual Financial Statements "). The Annual Financial Statements have been sent to the Shareholders who have requested such financial statements in accordance with applicable securities laws and are also

5

available on the System for Electronic Document Retrieval and Analysis (" SEDAR ") of the Canadian Securities Administrators at www.sedar.com.

==> picture [9 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

Fix Number of Directors

Shareholders of the Corporation will be asked to consider and, if thought appropriate, to approve and adopt an ordinary resolution fixing the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting. In order to be effective, an ordinary resolution requires the approval of a majority of the votes cast by Shareholders who vote in respect of the resolution.

The Board of Directors presently consists of seven (7) directors, four (4) of whom are being nominated for re-election. It is proposed that the number of directors for the ensuing year be set at seven (7) and that the persons named below will be nominated at the Meeting. Each director elected will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until his successor is duly elected or appointed pursuant to the by-laws of the Corporation unless his office is earlier vacated in accordance with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) or the Corporation's by-laws. Unless otherwise directed, it is the intention of the Management Nominees, if named as proxy, to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution fixing the number of directors to be elected at the Meeting at seven (7).

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Election of Directors

The following table sets forth the name of each of the persons proposed to be nominated for election as a director, all positions and offices in the Corporation presently held by such nominee, the nominee's municipality of residence, principal occupation at the present and during the preceding five years, the period during which the nominee has served as a director and the number and percentage of Common Shares that the nominee has advised are beneficially owned by the nominee, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction is exercised, as of the Effective Date.

The Board of Directors has adopted an individual voting standard for the election of directors at the Meeting. Under the individual voting standard, in the event that a nominee for director receives a greater number of votes "withheld" than votes "for" his election as a director, the Board of Directors shall consider the circumstances of such vote, the particular attributes of the director nominee including his knowledge, experience and contribution at Board of Directors' meetings and make whatever determination the Board of Directors deems appropriate, including without limitation, requesting such director to resign at an appropriate time and advise Shareholders of the Board's decision in that regard. This policy applies only to uncontested elections, meaning elections where the number of nominees for directors is equal to the number of directors to be elected. The Board of Directors may fill any vacancy created by any such resignation or determine to leave the resulting vacancy unfilled.

Shareholders should note that, as a result of the majority voting policy, a "withhold" vote is effectively the same as a vote against a director nominee in an uncontested election.

Cease Trade Orders

No proposed director, within 10 years before the date of this Information Circular, has been a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company that:

  • (a) was subject to: (i) a cease trade order; (ii) an order similar to a cease trade order; or (iii) an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days (collectively, an " Order ") that was issued while the proposed director was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer; or

7

  • (b) was subject to an Order that was issued after the proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer.

Bankruptcies

Other than as set forth below, no proposed director, within 10 years before the date of this Information Circular, has been a director or executive officer of any company that, while the proposed director was acting in that capacity, or within a year of the proposed director ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets.

Mr. Fritzel was formerly a director of All Peace Industrial Contractors (2012) Ltd., a private company, which made an application to the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the " Court ") to appoint a trustee under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) on July 18, 2018. The bankruptcy was discharged by the Court on March 1, 2021.

No proposed director of the Corporation has been subject to any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority, or has been subject to any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable securityholder in deciding whether to vote for a proposed director.

Appointment of Auditor

The current auditors of the Corporation are MNP LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants. MNP LLP were first appointed auditors of the Corporation effective November 22, 2021.

Unless otherwise directed, it is management's intention to vote the proxies in favour of an ordinary resolution to appoint the firm of MNP LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, to serve as auditors of the Corporation until the next annual meeting of the Shareholders or until a successor is appointed, and to authorize the directors to fix their remuneration.

MNP LLP were appointed auditors for the Corporation on November 22, 2021, following the resignation of Crowe Mackay LLP at the Corporation’s request.

Letters from Crowe Mackay LLP and MNP LLP confirming their agreement with the Notice of Change of Auditor are included in the reporting package attached hereto as Exhibit III.

Approval of Stock Option Plan

The TSX Venture Exchange Inc. (the " TSXV ") requires all listed companies with a 10% rolling stock option plan to obtain annual shareholder approval of such plan on an annual basis. Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to vote on a resolution to approve, for the ensuing year, the Corporation's stock option plan (the " Stock Option Plan ") which was last approved by shareholders on June 23, 2021.

The terms of the Stock Option Plan are summarized as follows. The Stock Option Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors, or if appointed, by a special committee of directors appointed from time to time by the Board of Directors (the " Committee "). The aggregate number of Common Shares which may be reserved for issuance under the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the Corporation's issued and outstanding Common Shares. The number of Common Shares subject to an option granted to a participant shall be determined by the Committee, but no participant shall be granted an option which exceeds the maximum number of shares permitted by any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed, or other regulatory body having jurisdiction. The exercise price of the Common Shares covered by each option shall be determined by the Committee, provided however, that the exercise price shall not be less than the price permitted by any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed, or other regulatory body having jurisdiction. The foregoing summary of the Stock Option Plan is qualified in its entirety by the full-text of the Stock Option Plan, which is attached hereto as Exhibit I. Shareholders are encouraged to read the full-text of the Stock Option Plan.

At the Meeting, the Shareholders will be asked to approve the following ordinary resolution:

" BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

  • (a) The Stock Option Plan, substantially in the form set out as Exhibit I to the management information circular dated August 25, 2022, be and the same is hereby approved and authorized with such modifications as may be required by the TSX Venture Exchange;

  • (b) The maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued under the Plan shall be equal to ten percent (10%) of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares from time to time; and

  • (c) Any one director or officer of the Corporation be authorized to make all such arrangements, to do all acts and things and to sign and execute all documents and instruments in writing, whether under the corporate seal of the Corporation or otherwise, as may be considered necessary or advisable to give full force and effect to the foregoing."

In order for the resolution approving the Plan to be effective, it must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in respect thereof by Shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Meeting. If the Plan is not approved by the Shareholders, the Corporation will have to consider other methods of compensating and providing incentives to directors, officers, employees and consultants. In the absence of contrary direction, the Management Nominees intend to vote proxies in the accompanying form in favour of this ordinary resolution.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following discussion describes the significant elements of the Corporation's current executive compensation program, with emphasis on the process of determining compensation payable to the Chief Executive Officer (" CEO ") and the Chief Financial Officer (" CFO "), and each of the three most highly compensated executive officers other than the CEO and the CFO (collectively, the " Named Executive Officers " or " NEOs ").

Form 51-102F6V – Statement of Executive Compensation – Venture Issuers, defines "Named Executive Officers" or "NEOs" as each of the following individuals: (1) the CEO; (2) the CFO; (3) the most highly compensated executive officer other than the CEO and CFO whose total compensation at the end of the most recently completed financial year was more than $150,000; and (4) each individual who would be a Named Executive Officer under item (3) but for the fact that the individual was neither an executive officer of the Corporation, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of that financial year.

For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2021, the Corporation had three Named Executive Officers: Brent Willis, who was the Corporation's President and CEO, Bradley Willis, who was the Corporation's Chief Operating Officer and Ron Love, who was the Corporation's Chief Financial Officer (Mr. Love took over for Gordon Forbes during the year ended November 30, 2020).

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The objective of the Corporation's compensation program is to compensate NEOs and directors for their services to the Corporation at a level that is both in line with the Corporation's fiscal resources and competitive with companies at a similar stage of development. The Corporation compensates its NEOs based on their skill and experience levels and the existing stage of development of the Corporation. The Corporation's compensation program is designed to reward performance that contributes to the achievement of the Corporation's business strategy and performance goals on both a short-term and long-term basis. NEOs are rewarded on the basis of the skill and level of responsibility involved in their position, the individual's experience and qualifications, the Corporation's resources, industry practice, and regulatory guidelines regarding executive compensation levels.

The Corporation's executive compensation program currently has two principal components: base salary and stock options. The base salary provides a fixed level of regularly paid cash compensation for performing day-to-day responsibilities. The stock options reward long-term performance by allowing NEOs to participate in the long-term market appreciation of the Common Shares. The Corporation does not, as of the date of this Information Circular, offer any form of benefit plan or pension plan. During fiscal 2021, the Corporation expects to implement a host of improved compensation components including the Equity Incentive Plan that will apply to officers, directors and employees.

The Corporation did not have any employment agreements with the NEOs at November 30, 2021 that would provide severance to the NEOs. The Corporation does not have an employee benefit program in place at this time but it is expected to implement such in due course. The directors are to be paid cash fees and may be granted options under the Stock Option Pan, and RSUs and/or DSUs under the Equity Incentive Plan from time to time.

Compensation for the most recently completed financial year should not be considered an indicator of expected compensation levels in future periods. All compensation is subject to and dependent on the Corporation's financial resources and prospects.

10

In assessing the compensation of its executive officers, the Corporation does not have in place formal objectives, criteria or analysis; instead, it relies mainly on discussions between the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors. In making compensation recommendations, the Compensation Committee considers each executive's performance and other relevant factors, including the scope of each executive's position and responsibilities, the achievement of corporate goals, the current business environment and anticipated changes, and executive retention and recruitment considerations. The Compensation Committee does not rely on benchmarks or a specific formula, but instead relies upon comparisons to peer company executives along with the resources available to the Corporation in making compensation decisions.

Composition of the Compensation Committee

The current members of the Compensation Committee are Trent Abraham (Chairman), Ronald Sifton and Frank B. Wright Jr., each of whom is an independent director. Meetings of the Compensation Committee are held periodically to review compensation policies and to consider the overall compensation to be paid by the Corporation to its employees, executive officers and directors. Typically, following review of data and discussion by members of the Compensation Committee, recommendations are made to the Board. The members of the Compensation Committee have experience in dealing with a variety of executive compensation matters and such experience and skills enable him to advise on the suitability of Voyageur's policies and other compensation matters.

Responsibilities of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee, among other things, is responsible for establishing policies regarding the remuneration of the NEOs and supervises and implements such policies. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee include:

  • Establishing an overall compensation policy for the Corporation and monitoring its implementation, with special attention devoted to the senior officers;

  • Periodically reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding the Corporation's remuneration and compensation policies, including short and long-term incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans, bonus plans, pension plans, executive stock option plans and grants and benefit plans (including the group life and health program); and

  • Periodically reviewing and approving all compensation arrangements with the CEO and the CFO.

Performance goals for the Corporation are based on subjective measures typical for a developing company in similar circumstances. Compensation plans for the year are based on achievement of these performance measures that consider, in addition to the share price performance, the financial performance of the Corporation, balance sheet strength, business and personal objectives achieved and other qualitative factors.

The performance goals described above are based on non-GAAP financial measures and are not necessarily derived from the Corporation's financial statements. The performance goals are purely subjective and are analyzed based on the parameters described until such time the Corporation is able to tie performance directly to its financial performance as presented in its financial statements.

11

The Corporation's Board and Compensation Committee consider all risks associated with the development of the Corporation's prospects including any risks associated with compensation policies and practices. The Corporation has not identified any risks related to its compensation policies and practices that could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation. In discharging this responsibility the Corporation has established a Compensation Committee that oversees the development of policies, procedures and setting of corporate goals and objectives. The Compensation Committee reviews progress towards all corporate goals in regular meetings through management reports, which allows for altering any objectives as required. The Compensation Committee then reviews and approves any resulting recommended compensation impacts.

The Corporation monitors the corporate and personal objectives for employees to mitigate any circumstances that could provide the opportunity for an individual to take inappropriate or excessive risks. Through regular reporting to the Board (and when appropriate, to the Compensation Committee), the CEO and CFO summarize all progress toward company goals and through this review any inappropriate activities would likely be highlighted.

The Corporation does not permit any Named Executive Officer or director to purchase financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, 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 equity securities in the Corporation granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the Named Executive Officer or director.

Salary

In establishing base salaries, the Compensation Committee is responsible for periodically reviewing comparable market salary levels for individuals in positions with similar responsibilities and experience.

Option Based Awards

The Stock Option Plan is designed to provide an incentive to the directors, officers and employees to achieve the longer-term objectives of the Corporation and is the responsibility of the Compensation Committee. The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to give suitable recognition to the ability and performance of such persons who contribute materially to the success of the Corporation and to attract and retain persons of experience and ability by providing them with the opportunity to acquire an increased ownership interest in the Corporation. Generally, the number of stock options granted to any optionee is a function of the level of authority and responsibility of the optionee, the contribution that has been made by the optionee to the business and affairs of the Corporation, the number of stock options that have already been granted to the optionee and such other factors as the Compensation Committee may consider relevant.

Share Based Awards

The Corporation adopted a new equity incentive compensation plan (the " Equity Incentive Plan "), following receipt of disinterested shareholder approval at the meeting of the Shareholders held on June 23, 2021 and final approval from the TSXV on December 3, 2021.

The Equity Incentive Plan functions as a fixed plan and as such, the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to all Awards (as defined below) issued under the Equity Incentive Plan shall not exceed 10,014,917 Common Shares (or such lesser amount as would equal 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on the date on which disinterested shareholder approval was obtained). To the extent that an Award lapses or the rights of its

12

Participant terminate, any Common Shares subject to such award shall again be available for the grant of an Award.

The Equity Incentive Plan operates as a separate plan to the Stock Option Plan. Stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan are not included in the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan.

A summary of the material terms of the Equity Incentive Plan is as follows:

The purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan is to: (i) provide the Corporation with a mechanism to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified directors, officers, employees and consultants; (ii) align the interests of eligible participants in the Equity Incentive Plan (" Participants ") with that of other shareholders of the Corporation generally; and (iii) enable and encourage Participants to participate in the long-term growth of the Corporation through the acquisition of Common Shares as long-term investments.

The Equity Incentive Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors or the Committee and will provide that the Board of Directors may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with the TSXV or any other stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed requirements, grant to eligible Participants, non-transferable awards (the " Awards " and together with stock options referred to herein as " Compensation Securities "). Such Awards include restricted share units (" RSUs ") and deferred share units (" DSUs ").

The maximum number of Common Shares for which Awards may be issued to any one Participant in any 12-month period shall not exceed 5% of the outstanding Common Shares, or 2% in the case of a grant of Awards to any consultant, calculated on the date an Award is granted to the Participant, unless disinterested shareholder approval as required by the policies of the TSXV is obtained. Further, unless disinterested shareholder approval as required by the policies of the TSXV is obtained: (i) the maximum number of Common Shares for which Awards may be issued to insiders of the Corporation (as a group) at any point in time shall not exceed 10% of the outstanding Common Shares; and (ii) the aggregate number of Awards granted to insiders of the Corporation (as a group), within any 12-month period, shall not exceed 10% of the outstanding Common Shares, calculated at the date an Award is granted to any insider.

The Equity Incentive Plan provides for customary adjustments or substitutions, as applicable, in the number of Common Shares that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan in the event of a merger, arrangement, amalgamation, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, separation, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split up, spinoff or other distribution of stock or property of the Corporation, combination of securities, exchange of securities, dividend in kind, or other like change in capital structure or distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to shareholders of the Corporation, or any similar corporate event or transaction.

In the event of an actual or potential Change of Control (as is customarily defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) of the Corporation, the Board shall have discretion as to the treatment of Awards, including whether to (i) accelerate, conditionally or otherwise, on such terms as it sees fit, the vesting date of any Awards; (ii) permit the conditional redemption or exercise of any Awards, on such terms as it sees fit; (iii) otherwise amend or modify the terms of any Awards; and (iv) terminate, following the successful completion of a Change of Control, on such terms as it sees fit, the Awards not exercised prior to the successful completion of such Change of Control.

The following is a summary of the RSUs and DSUs issuable under the Equity Incentive Plan.

13

Restricted Share Units

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Incentive Plan, the Board may grant RSUs to Participants in such amounts and upon such terms (including restrictions based upon time-based restrictions on vesting, restrictions under applicable laws or under the requirements of the TSXV) as the Board shall determine.

Unless otherwise specified in an Award agreement granting RSUs, RSUs shall vest at the discretion of the Board, subject to the policies of the TSXV, provided that, and subject to the Board's discretion: (i) upon a Participant's termination for cause, all RSUs, whether vested (if not yet paid out) or not as at the Termination Date will automatically and immediately expire and be forfeited; (ii) upon the death of a Participant, all unvested RSUs as at the Termination Date shall automatically and immediately vest and be paid out; (iii) in the case of the disability of a Participant, all RSUs shall remain and continue to vest in accordance with the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan for a period of 12 months after the Termination Date, provided that any RSUs that have not been vested within 12 months after the Termination Date shall automatically and immediately expire and be forfeited on such date; (iv) in the case of the retirement of a Participant, the Board shall have discretion, with respect to such RSUs, to determine whether to accelerate the vesting of such RSUs, cancel such RSUs with or without payment and determine how long, if at all, such RSUs may remain outstanding following the Termination Date, provided, however, that in no event shall such RSUs be exercisable for more than 12 months after the Termination Date; and (v) in all other cases where a Participant ceases to be eligible under the Equity Incentive Plan, including a termination without cause or a voluntary resignation, unless otherwise determined by the Board, all unvested RSUs shall automatically and immediately expire and be forfeited as of the Termination Date, and all vested RSUs will be paid out in accordance with the Equity Incentive Plan.

When and if RSUs become payable, the Participant issued such RSUs shall be entitled to receive payment from the Corporation in settlement of such RSU: (i) in a number of Common Shares (issued from treasury or purchased in the market by the Corporation) equal to the number of RSUs being settled, (ii) an amount in cash equivalent to the number of the outstanding RSUs held by such Participant multiplied by the fair market value as at the applicable settlement date or Termination Date, (iii) in some combination thereof, or (iv) in any other form, all as determined by the Committee at its sole discretion, subject to the policies of the TSXV.

Participants holding RSUs may, if the Board of Directors so determines, be credited with dividends paid with respect of the underlying Common Shares or dividend equivalents while they are so held in a manner determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

Deferred Share Units

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors may grant DSUs to Participants in such amounts and upon such terms as the Board of Directors shall determine.

When DSUs become payable, the Participant issued such DSUs shall be entitled to receive payment from the Corporation in settlement of such DSU: (i) in a number of Shares (issued from treasury or purchased in the market by the Corporation) equal to the number of DSUs being settled, (ii) an amount in cash equivalent to the number of the outstanding DSUs held by such Participant multiplied by the fair market value as at the applicable settlement date or Termination Date, (iii) in some combination thereof, or (iv) in any other form, all as determined by the Board at its sole discretion, subject to the policies of the TSXV.

14

Participants holding DSUs may, if the Board so determines, be credited with dividends paid with respect of the underlying Common Shares or dividend equivalents while they are so held in a manner determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

The extent to which a Participant shall have the right to retain DSUs following termination the Participant's employment or other relationship with the Corporation shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Board, and need not be uniform among all DSUs issued pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination, provided that the provisions shall comply with the applicable rules of the TSXV.

AUDIT COMMITTEE DISCLOSURE

The audit committee (the " Audit Committee ") is a committee of the Board established for the purpose of overseeing the accounting and financial reporting process of the Corporation and annual external audits of the financial statements. The Audit Committee has set out its responsibilities and composition requirements in fulfilling its oversight in relation to the Corporation's internal accounting standards and practices, financial information, accounting systems and procedures, which procedures are set out below in the Corporation's Audit Committee Terms of Reference.

Audit Committee Charter

The Board has developed a written Audit Committee Terms of Reference (the " Charter "). A copy of the Charter is attached hereto as Exhibit II to this Information Circular.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate governance relates to the activities of the Board of Directors, 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 of Directors and who are charged with the day to day management of the Corporation. The Board of Directors is committed to sound corporate governance practices which are both in the interest of its Shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making.

Pursuant to National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (" NI 58101 "), the Corporation is required to disclose its corporate governance practices as summarized below.

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is currently comprised of seven members, four (4) of whom are standing for re-election at the Meeting. Trent Abraham, Ronald Sifton, Dr. Merle Olson, Ralph Hesje and Frank B. Wright Jr. are the current independent directors of the Corporation. Messrs. Abraham, Wright and Olson are not standing for re-election at the Meeting. Following the Meeting, the

20

independent directors are expected to be Ronald Sifton, Ralph Hesje, Eric Pommer and Eugene (Gene) Fritzel.

Mr. Brent Willis, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, and Mr. Bradley Willis, Chief Operating Officer of the Corporation, are members of management and, as a result, not independent directors. Mr. Agustin Gago is a consultant advising management and, as a result, is not an independent director.

An "independent" director is a director who has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. A material relationship is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgement. As disclosed above, the Board of Directors is comprised of a majority of independent directors. The independent judgement of the Board of Directors in carrying out its responsibilities is the responsibility of all directors. The Board of Directors facilitates independent supervision of management through meetings of the Board of Directors and through informal discussions among members of the Board of Directors and management. In addition, the Board of Directors have free access to the Corporation's external auditors, legal counsel and to any of the Corporation's officers.

Directorships

No director of the Corporation is currently a director of any other issuer that is a reporting issuer (or the equivalent) in a jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction.

Orientation and Continuing Education

New directors will be made aware of the nature and operation of the business of the Corporation through interviews with other board members and management during which they are briefed on the Corporation and its current business issues.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Corporation's business conduct is monitored by the Board of Directors. The Board has not adopted a formal code of business conduct and ethics. The Board is of the view that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Corporation's governing legislation and common law together with corporate statutory restrictions on an individual director's participation in Board decisions in which the director has an interest are sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Corporation.

Nomination of Directors

The Board of Directors has not appointed a nominating committee. The Board of Directors determines new nominees to the Board of Directors although no formal process has been adopted. The nominees are generally the result of recruitment efforts by members of the Board of Directors including both formal and informal discussions among the members of the Board of Directors and officers of the Corporation.

Compensation Committee

The current members of the Compensation Committee are Trent Abraham (Chairman), Ronald Sifton and Frank B. Wright Jr. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee in respect of compensation matters include reviewing and recommending to the Board of Directors the compensation policies and guidelines for supervisory management and personnel, corporate benefits, bonuses and other incentives, reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives

21

relevant to Chief Executive Officer compensation; non-CEO officer and director compensation; the review of executive compensation disclosure; succession plans for officers and for key employees; and material changes and trends in human resources policy, procedure, compensation and benefits. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee in respect of corporate governance matters include addressing all governance issues identified by securities regulators and any additional issues as they arise by virtue of the operations and growth of the Corporation as being emerging progressive issues of corporate governance.

The Compensation Committee has unrestricted access to the Corporation's personnel and documents and is provided with the resources necessary, including, as required, the engagement and compensation of outside advisors, to carry out its responsibilities.

Corporate Governance Committee

The Corporation has established a Corporate Governance Committee. The current members of the Corporate Governance Committee are Ralph Hesje (Chairman), Ronald Sifton and Frank B. Wright Jr. The responsibilities of the Corporate Governance Committee are to assist the Board of Directors in maintaining high standards of corporate governance by developing, recommending and monitoring effective guidelines and procedures applicable to the Corporation. The mandate includes recommending action to the board for structural changes to ensure the Corporation and the Board of Directors continues to operate in compliance with its legal and fiduciary duties. The Corporate Governance Committee is accountable for the governance guidelines and policies for the Corporation and the Board of Directors.

Other Board of Directors Committees

The Corporation has no standing committees at this time, other than the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance Committee, as discussed above.

Assessments

The Board of Directors have not implemented a formal process for assessing its effectiveness or the effectiveness of its individual members or its committees. As a result of the Corporation's size, its stage of development and the limited number of individuals on the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors consider a formal assessment process to be unnecessary at this time. The Board of Directors plans to continue evaluating its own effectiveness on an ad hoc basis.

  • (c) the entering into of any agreement by the Corporation to merge, consolidate, amalgamate, initiate an arrangement or be absorbed by or into another corporation; or
