NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF WONDERFI SHAREHOLDERS

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT an annual general meeting (the “ WonderFi Meeting ”) of the holders (the “ WonderFi Shareholders ”) of common shares (the “ WonderFi Shares ”) of WonderFi Technologies Inc. (“ WonderFi ”) will be held virtually via live audio webcast at meetnow.global/MA6GU5Q on May 24, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) and 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time), subject to any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, for the following purposes:

  1. to receive and consider the audited financial statements of WonderFi together with the auditor’s report thereon for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023;

  2. to appoint the independent auditor of WonderFi for the ensuing year and to authorize the directors to fix the remuneration to be paid to the auditor;

  3. to elect directors to hold office for the ensuing year;

  4. to transact such other business, including amendments to the foregoing, as may properly be brought before the WonderFi Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

WonderFi Shareholders are encouraged to vote on the matters before the Meeting by proxy by following the voting instructions in the accompanying management information circular of WonderFi (the “ Information Circular ”) accompanying this notice (the “ Notice ”).

The resolutions to be passed at the WonderFi Meeting must each be approved by at least a simple majority of the votes cast by WonderFi Shareholders eligible to vote on the subject matter thereof present (virtually) or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the WonderFi Meeting. The Information Circular contains additional details concerning the matters to be acted upon at the WonderFi Meeting.

The Board of Directors of WonderFi (the “Board”) unanimously recommends that WonderFi Shareholders vote “FOR” all the matters set forth in the accompanying form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, as described in more detail in the accompanying Information Circular.

The Board has fixed the close of business on March 25, 2024 (the “ Record Date ”) as the record date for determining the WonderFi Shareholders who are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the WonderFi Meeting. Only registered WonderFi Shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of the WonderFi Meeting and to attend and vote at the WonderFi Meeting virtually.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

This management information circular (the “ Information Circular ”) of WonderFi Technologies Inc. (“ WonderFi ” or the “ Company ”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the management of WonderFi for use at the annual general meeting of the holders (the “ WonderFi Shareholders ”) of common shares of the Company (the “ WonderFi Shares ”), and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

Solicitation of Proxies

WonderFi may utilize the Broadridge QuickVote[TM] system to assist non-Registered WonderFi Shareholders with voting their WonderFi Shares. NonRegistered WonderFi Shareholders may be contacted by Morrow Sodali to obtain voting instructions directly over the telephone. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all the instructions received and provides the appropriate instructions respecting the WonderFi Shares to be represented at the WonderFi Meeting.

Voting by Proxy

On any ballot that may be called for, the WonderFi Shares represented by a properly executed proxy given in favour of the management proxyholders will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions given on the proxy. If the WonderFi Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the WonderFi Shares will be voted accordingly. In the absence of any direction in the instrument of proxy, such WonderFi Shares will be voted in favour of the matters set forth in the accompanying WonderFi Notice. The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the accompanying WonderFi Notice, and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the WonderFi Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, whether or not such matters are routine or contested. At the date of this Information Circular, management of WonderFi is not aware of any such amendment, variation or other matter to come before the WonderFi Meeting. However, if any amendments or variations to matters identified in the accompanying WonderFi Notice or any other matters which are not now known to management of WonderFi should properly come before the WonderFi Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the WonderFi Shares represented by properly executed proxies given in favour of the management proxyholders will be voted on such matters pursuant to such discretionary authority.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

General

Corporate governance refers to the policies and structure of the board of directors of a corporation, whose members are elected by and are accountable to the WonderFi Shareholders. Corporate governance encourages establishing a reasonable degree of independence of the board of directors from executive management and adoption of policies to ensure the board of directors recognizes the principles of good management. The WonderFi Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, as such practices are both in the interests of WonderFi Shareholders and help to contribute to effective and efficient decision-making.

The WonderFi Board believes that good corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all Shareholders. The CSA have adopted National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines , which provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for non-venture reporting issuers such as WonderFi. In this regard, WonderFi is required to include in the Information Circular the disclosure required by Form 58-101F1 - Corporate Governance Disclosure (Form 58-101F1).

Item 1: Board of Directors

The WonderFi Board supervises the CEO and the CFO. Both the CEO and CFO are required to act in accordance with the scope of authority provided to them by the Board.

The WonderFi Board currently has nine members. Each director is elected annually by the shareholders and serves for a term that will end at WonderFi’s next annual meeting. For the upcoming year, the WonderFi Board believes that nine directors are a sufficient number to ensure that the WonderFi Board will be comprised of directors with a broad range of experience and expertise and will be able to function independently of management. In connection with the acquisitions of Coinsquare Ltd. and CoinSmart Financial Inc., the Company entered into investor rights agreements where it contractually agreed to set and remain the size of the Board to nine directors for a period of two years following the acquisitions. See as well the section entitled “ Investor Rights Agreements ”.

A material relationship is a relationship which could, in the view of the WonderFi Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member’s independent judgment.

The following table summarizes the composition of the WonderFi Board and committees and the attendance at each meeting:

A copy of Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee mandate is available on WonderFi’s website under the “Corporate Governance”.

Item 5: Ethical Business Conduct

The WonderFi Board has adopted a code of conduct (the “ Code of Conduct ”) in light of its continued commitment to honesty and integrity in the conduct of its business. The Code of Conduct applies to directors, officers and employees of WonderFi. A copy of the Code of Conduct is available on WonderFi’s website under the “Corporate Governance”.

The WonderFi Board monitors compliance with the Code of Conduct by ensuring that all employees have read and understood the Code of Conduct and by charging management with bringing to the WonderFi Board’s attention any issues that arise with respect to the Code of Conduct.

In addition, the WonderFi Board has adopted a Whistleblower Policy and process, which allows for anonymous submission of complaints or issues relating to the Code of Conduct or to any accounting or financial improprieties that may arise.

WonderFi also has an Insider Trading & Reporting Policy (the “ Insider Trading & Reporting Policy ”), that required to be followed by all directors, officers and employees of WonderFi. The Insider Trading & Reporting Policy ensures that material information about WonderFi is communication in a timely, factual and accurate manager, and disseminated in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The Insider Trading & Reporting Policy also establishes trading restrictions and blackout periods applicable to WonderFi’s directors, executive officers, employees, and certain other persons as described in the Insider Trading & Reporting Policy.

The most recent copies of the Code of Conduct, Whistleblower and Insider Trading & Reporting Policies are available on WonderFi’s website under the “Corporate Governance”.

Item 6: Nomination of Directors

WonderFi’s Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee has the primary responsibility for identifying prospective WonderFi Board members, to establish criteria for WonderFi Board committee membership, to recommend composition of the WonderFi Board and its committees and, as circumstances arise, assess directors’ performance. The Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee is comprised of five directors, three of whom are independent.

The Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee coordinates the search for qualified candidates with input from management and other WonderFi Board members, giving careful consideration to the competencies and skills that the WonderFi Board as a whole should possess, taking into consideration the skills and experience of existing WonderFi Board members.

  • 19 -

[email protected]

election as directors of WonderFi. The advance notice provisions in WonderFi’s Articles, which contain the full text of the advance notice provisions, can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

The WonderFi Board has adopted a policy regarding majority voting for the election of directors. Pursuant to the majority voting policy, each director must, subject to the provisions below, be elected by the vote of a majority (50% +1 vote) of the WonderFi Shares voted, represented in person or by proxy, at any meeting for the election of directors other than at contested meetings. Forms of proxy for the election of directors will permit a WonderFi Shareholder to vote in favour of, or to withhold from voting, separately for each director nominee. The Chair of the WonderFi Board will ensure that the number of WonderFi Shares voted in favour or withheld from voting for each director nominee is recorded and promptly made public after the meeting. If any nominee for director receives, from the WonderFi Shares voted at the meeting in person or by proxy, a greater number of WonderFi Shares withheld than WonderFi Shares voted in favour of his or her election (a “ Majority Withheld Vote ”), the director must immediately tender his or her resignation to the WonderFi Board following the meeting to take effect upon acceptance by the WonderFi Board. The WonderFi Board shall accept the resignation absent exceptional circumstances, and such resignation will be effective when accepted by the WonderFi Board.

A person elected as a director who received a Majority Withheld Vote is expected forthwith to submit his or her resignation promptly to the WonderFi Board after the meeting. The Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee of the WonderFi Board shall consider the resignation and shall recommend to the WonderFi Board whether or not to accept it after reviewing the matter. In the absence of exceptional circumstances, the WonderFi Board expects the Nomination Committee will recommend accepting such resignation. The WonderFi Board shall act on the Nomination Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following the applicable shareholders’ meeting. Following the WonderFi Board’s decision on the resignation, a news release will be issued by WonderFi disclosing the WonderFi Board’s determination (and the reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable), and will provide a copy of the news release to the TSX.

Subject to any corporate law restrictions, and in accordance with WonderFi’s articles and by-laws, where the WonderFi Board accepts the offer of resignation of a director and that director resigns, the WonderFi Board may exercise its discretion with respect to the resulting vacancy and may, without limitation, leave the resultant vacancy unfilled until the next annual meeting of Shareholders, fill the vacancy through the appointment of a new director whom the WonderFi Board considers to merit the confidence of the WonderFi Shareholders, or call a special meeting of WonderFi Shareholders to elect a new nominee to fill the vacant position.

Item 7: Compensation

WonderFi’s Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee, is responsible for reviewing the adequacy and form of non-executive directors’ and senior officers’ compensation, to ensure that the compensation realistically reflects the responsibilities and risks involved in being an effective director and senior officer. The Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee annually reviews the adequacy and form of non-executive directors’ compensation and makes recommendations to the WonderFi Board with respect to WonderFi’s directorship fee structure and compensation. See Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee Mandate under the Item 4 above.

Item 8: Other Board Committees

The other standing committee of the WonderFi Board is the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is currently comprised of three independent directors, being Mr. Jason Theofilos (Chair), Jaime Leverton, and G. Scott Paterson. All members of the Audit Committee are considered to be (i) “independent” within the meaning of NI 52-110; and (ii) “financially literate” within the meaning of NI 52-110. The Audit Committee is responsible for WonderFi’s financial reporting process and the quality of its financial reporting. The Audit Committee is charged with the mandate of providing independent review and oversight of WonderFi’s financial reporting process, the system of internal control and management of financial risks and the audit process, including the selection, oversight and compensation of WonderFi’s external auditors. The Audit Committee also assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities in reviewing WonderFi’s process for monitoring compliance with laws and regulations, receives quarterly reports from management on WonderFi’s cybersecurity program and annually reviews WonderFi’s insurance policies. In

  • 20 -

For questions or assistance, please call Morrow Sodali at 1.888.777.0836 toll-free or by email at [email protected]

performing its duties, the Audit Committee maintains effective working relationships with the Board, management and the external auditors and monitors the performance and independence of those auditors. The full text of the Audit Committee’s charter is available on the Company’s website at www.wonder.fi. During the financial year ended December 31, 2023, the Audit Committee met three times.

Additional information with respect to the Audit Committee can be found in the Company’s most recent annual information form dated March 28, 2024, a copy of which is available on WonderFi’s issuer profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Item 9: Assessments

Each committee functions in according to a written mandate, as approved by the WonderFi Board. The committees will review and assess the adequacy of the mandates of the committees on an annual basis.

The Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee is responsible for ensuring that an appropriate system is in place to evaluate the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the individual committees of the WonderFi Board, and the individual members of the Board and such committees with a view of ensuring that they are fulfilling their respective responsibilities and duties. The evaluations considered the following topics, among others, meetings, membership and composition, structure of the board, culture and ethics, relationship with management, financial information and assessment of the effectiveness of the Board. Such evaluations take into account the competencies and skills each director is expected to bring to his or her particular role on the Board or on a committee, as well as any other relevant facts.

Item 10: Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal

WonderFi considers the experience and qualifications of its existing directors on annual basis, before nominating directors for re-election but at this time does not have a formal policy that imposes director term limits. At the current stage of WonderFi’s development and business operations, WonderFi believes it is not in the best interest of WonderFi to implement term restrictions.

Item 11: Policies Regarding the Representation of Women on the Board

WonderFi adopted a diversity policy (the “ Diversity Policy ”), which, among other things, governs WonderFi’s objectives to identify and nominate women directors.

The Board is committed to supporting management in building and sustaining an inclusive and diverse workforce at WonderFi, with a clear accountability framework. In this context, we define diversity to be inclusive of individuals regardless of gender, race, national and ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sexual orientation, marital and family status, and physical or mental disabilities.

WonderFi’s Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee is responsible for recommending director candidates for election to the Board and annually evaluating the overall performance of the Board. The selection of candidates for appointment to the Board will be based on merit. Within that overriding emphasis on merit, the Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee shall seek to fill Board vacancies by considering candidates that bring a diversity of background and industry or related expertise and experience to the Board. The Committee’s considerations shall include achieving an appropriate level of diversity having regard to factors such as skills, business and other experience, education, age, geographic location, and the specified diversity groups outlined below in the Item 12.

Item 12: Consideration of the Representation of Women in the Director Identification and Selection Process

While the Board does not support fixed percentages or quotas for achieving diversity, in reviewing the composition of the Board, the Compensation, Nomination and Governance Committee considers the benefits of diversity in order to maintain an optimum mix of skills, knowledge and experience on the WonderFi. When assessing Board composition or identifying suitable candidates for appointment or re-election to the Board, the Compensation, Nomination and

  • 21 -

  • (i) the Board should maintain a composition in which each of the female and male genders comprises at least 30% of the independent directors on the WonderFi Board; and

  • (ii) the Board aspires to have at least 50% of the independent directors be individuals that are women, persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples, or members of other racial, ethnic and/or visible minorities.

Item 13: Consideration Given to the Representation of Women in Executive Officer Appointments

As part of the hiring process of Executive Officers, the Board and management of WonderFi actively seeks out highly qualified individuals diverse in gender, ethnicity, race, age, culture, religion, geography, and nationality, having the necessary skills, knowledge and experience, to evaluate as potential candidates as part of its standard recruitment process.

How WonderFi Determines the Amount for Each Element

WonderFi’s Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee (the “ Committee ”) administers its compensation program and makes recommendations to the WonderFi Board. In making compensation recommendations to the WonderFi Board, the Committee generally considers: (i) the duties of each individual, his or her past service and continuing responsibilities; (ii) the position or job description of individuals, their short and long-term objectives, goals and performance measurement indicators; (iii) WonderFi’s performance and shareholder returns; and (iv) the form and amount of compensation awarded by comparable companies and competitors.

Base Salaries

Base compensation for the Named Executive Officers is set annually, having regard to market conditions, the individual’s job responsibilities, contribution, experience and proven or expected performance, as well as to subjective factors such as leadership, commitment and attitude are also considered. The Committee also considers publicly available information regarding the compensation levels of executives of early-stage technology companies. WonderFi’s goal is to pay base salaries to its officers that are competitive when compared to those holding similar positions in companies of comparable stage of development within the crypto and blockchain industries, in order to attract and retain executive talent in the market in which WonderFi competes for talent.

Equity Incentives

The Committee does not employ a prescribed methodology when determining recommendations for the grant or allocation of Awards to NEOs. However, recommendations for Awards consider the general factors listed above in “Base Salaries”, the aggregate maximum number of equity incentives available for issuance under the WonderFi Incentive Plan, as well as such as Awards made in previous years and the number of Awards outstanding per individual.

Granting of any other types of equity-based or equity related awards not otherwise described more specifically in the summary of share-based compensation terms is subject to TSX approval.

Cash Bonuses

Cash bonuses awarded at the recommendation of the Committee are intended to be generally competitive with the market, while rewarding NEOs for meeting performance goals. The Committee considers not only WonderFi’s performance during the year with respect to the qualitative and quantitative goals, but also considers market and economic trends and forces, extraordinary internal and market-driven events, unanticipated developments and other extenuating circumstances.

How Each Element of Compensation and WonderFi’s Decisions About That Element Fit into WonderFi’s Overall Compensation Objectives and Affect Decisions About Other Elements

WonderFi’s approach to executive compensation is built on the principle of total rewards which considers base salaries, equity incentives and discretionary cash bonuses. Each component is intended to align with WonderFi’s compensation philosophy and objectives, and demonstrate clear alignment between compensation and WonderFi’s business strategy.

Benchmarks

WonderFi had not currently identified specific performance goals or benchmarks related to executive compensation for Financial Year 2023, but does, from time to time, review compensation practices of companies of similar size and stage of development to ensure the compensation paid is competitive within WonderFi’s industry.

Compensation Based Risk

WonderFi has not formally considered the implications of the risks associated with WonderFi’s compensation policies or practices for Financial Year 2023. However, when setting compensation levels, the WonderFi Board seeks to alleviate risk by having a balance of short-term and long-term compensation. For example, options typically do not vest immediately, which allows for continued appreciation over the term of the options. As a part of reviewing compensation levels, the WonderFi Board and Committee seek an appropriate balance of base salary, variable pay opportunities based on the achievement of individual and corporate performance objectives, options grants and RSU grants to balance the short-term and long- term interests of WonderFi by tying compensation to the achievement of the business objectives of WonderFi, while also ensuring that the executive and certain other employees of WonderFi have sufficient equity exposure to align their interests with the interests of its shareholders.

WonderFi believes that its compensation policies reflect an appropriate mixture of guaranteed compensation, incentive-based compensation through short-term and long-term incentive plans, and risk mitigation. WonderFi currently believes that its compensation policies and practices will not lead to inappropriate or excessive risk taking on the part of its executive officers or other employees of WonderFi.

Anti-Hedging Policy

NEOs 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.

Performance Graph

The first graph compares the yearly percentage change in the cumulative total return on the WonderFi Shares with the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Composite Index over the period from August 31, 2021, to March 28, 2024. The graph illustrates the cumulative relative return on a $100 investment in WonderFi Shares made on August 31, 2021, as compared with the cumulative return on a $100 investment in the S&P/TSX Composite Index. Distributions and dividends are assumed to be reinvested.

Share-Based and Option-Based Awards

Under the WonderFi Incentive Plan, WonderFi can grant Awards amongst its various organizational levels including employees, directors, officers, and consultants. All Awards are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement and forfeiture provisions provided in the WonderFi Incentive Plan and any grant.

The Committee does not employ a prescribed methodology when determining recommendations for the grant or allocation of Awards NEOs. In making recommendations for Awards, the Committee considers the general factors listed above, the aggregate maximum number of equity incentives available for issuance under the WonderFi Incentive Plan, as well as Awards made in previous years and the number of Awards outstanding per individual.

WonderFi believes that granting Awards encourages the maximization of shareholder value by aligning the interests of management with those of WonderFi’s shareholders. (For further information, see “ Compensation Discussion and Analysis”.

Notes:

  • (1) WonderFi used the Black-Scholes pricing model as the methodology to calculate the grant date fair value for share based and option- based awards, and relied on the following the key assumptions and estimates for each calculation: (i) risk free interest rate of 2.59%; (ii) expected dividend yield of 0%; and (iii) expected volatility of 139%. The Black-Scholes pricing model was used to estimate the fair value as it is the most accepted methodology.

  • (2) This amount contains multi-year share or option-based awards. Any unexercised options or unvested RSUs at the termination of a person’s contract, pursuant to the WonderFi Incentive Plan, are returned to WonderFi’s treasury. For this reason, these figures may not provide an accurate representation of compensation in a given year. See the table below entitled, “Incentive Plan Awards – Value Vested or Earned During the Financial Year Ended December 31, 2023”.

  • (3) John Rim resigned from his position as CFO on February 7, 2023. Andeena Wen replaced John Rim as Interim-CFO in February. Following WonderFi’s acquisition of CoinSmart Financial Inc., on July 14, 2023, Gordon Brocklehurst was appointed the Chief Financial Officer of WonderFi.

  • (4) On June 23, 2023, Adam Garetson resigned from his positions as Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. On June 26, 2023, Alexander Davis was appointed Corporate Secretary.

Any vested options may be exercised by the NEO 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.

In the event that any of the Employment Agreements are terminated for just cause, that NEO will only be entitled to any accrued unpaid wages and vacation pay calculated in accordance with the requirements of the ESA.

In order to receive his or her full entitlement to severance pay upon termination without just cause or resignation for good reason, the NEO must execute a full and final general release in favour of WonderFi, otherwise he or she will only receive the minimum statutory entitlement pursuant to the ESA.

In accordance with the terms of the WonderFi Incentive Plan, any Award granted to the NEO pursuant to their Employment Agreement are treated as follows upon a change of control:

  • (i) any unvested Awards held by the participant at Termination Date shall immediately vest; and

  • (ii) any vested Awards may be exercised, surrendered to WonderFi, or settled by the NEO at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the expiry date of such award; and (B) the date that is 90 days after the Termination Date.

Notes:

(1) The aggregate number of WonderFi Shares reserved for issuance in respect of all outstanding stock options, RSUs, DSUs PSUs, and together with other equity awards granted under the WonderFi Incentive Plan cannot exceed 10% of the number of issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

WonderFi Incentive Plan

WonderFi adopted an incentive stock option plan on June 23, 2021, as amended July 28, 2022, and the WonderFi Incentive Plan is WonderFi’s only equity compensation plan. The WonderFi Incentive Plan is a “rolling” plan, under which 10% of the outstanding WonderFi Shares at any given time are available for issuance thereunder. The purpose of the WonderFi Incentive Plan is to promote the profitability and growth of WonderFi by facilitating the efforts of WonderFi and its subsidiaries to attract and retain directors, senior officers, employees and consultants. The WonderFi Incentive Plan provides an incentive for and encourages ownership of the WonderFi Shares by such persons to induce them to make a maximum contribution to WonderFi’s success and to benefit from increases in the value of the WonderFi Shares.

The WonderFi Incentive Plan was amended to conform with TSX requirements and modified matters requiring shareholder approval at the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company held on September 12, 2022. The WonderFi Incentive Plan can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

The following information is intended to be a brief description and summary of the material features of the WonderFi Incentive Plan:

Shares Subject to the WonderFi Incentive Plan

The WonderFi Incentive Plan is a rolling plan which, subject to the adjustment provisions provided for therein (including a subdivision or consolidation of the WonderFi Shares), provides that the aggregate maximum number of

  • 39 -

For questions or assistance, please call Morrow Sodali at 1.888.777.0836 toll-free or by email at

[email protected]

WonderFi Shares that may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of awards granted under the WonderFi Incentive Plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares from time to time, such number being 652,610,303 WonderFi Shares as of the date of this Information Circular. WonderFi may complete additional financings which, if completed in whole or in part, will result in the total number of WonderFi Shares issued and outstanding to increase. Should such financing(s) materialize and the number of issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares increase, the WonderFi Incentive Plan shall still limit the aggregate maximum number of WonderFi Shares that may be issued upon the exercise or settlement of awards at 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares.

The WonderFi Incentive Plan is considered an “evergreen” plan, since the WonderFi Shares covered by awards which have been exercised, settled or terminated shall be available for subsequent grants under the WonderFi Incentive Plan and the number of awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares increases.

Insider and Related Persons Participation Limit

The WonderFi Incentive Plan also provides that the aggregate number of WonderFi Shares (a) issuable to insiders at any time (under all of WonderFi’s security-based compensation arrangements) cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares and (b) issued to insiders within any one-year period (under all of WonderFi’s securitybased compensation arrangements) cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares.

The WonderFi Incentive Plan also provides that the aggregate number of WonderFi Shares (a) issuable to related persons at any time (under all of WonderFi’s security-based compensation arrangements) cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares and (b) issued to related persons within any one-year period (under all of WonderFi’s security-based compensation arrangements) cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares. The total number of WonderFi Shares which may be issued or issuable to any one related person and the associates of the related person under the WonderFi Incentive Plan and all other security-based compensation arrangements within any one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the WonderFi Shares then outstanding.

So long as the WonderFi Shares are listed on the TSX, the aggregate number of WonderFi Shares issued or issuable to persons providing investor relations activities as compensation within a one-year period, shall not exceed 1% of the total number of WonderFi Shares then outstanding.

Furthermore, the WonderFi Incentive Plan provides that (i) WonderFi shall not make grants of awards to directors if, after giving effect to such grants of awards, the aggregate number of WonderFi Shares issuable to directors, at the time of such grant, under all of WonderFi’s security based compensation arrangements would exceed 1% of the issued and outstanding WonderFi Shares on a non-diluted basis, and (ii) within any one financial year of WonderFi, (a) the aggregate fair value on the date of grant of all options granted to any one non-employee director shall not exceed $100,000, and (b) the aggregate fair market value on the date of grant of all awards (including, for greater certainty, the fair market value of the options) granted to any one non-employee director under all of WonderFi’s security based compensation arrangements shall not exceed $150,000; provided that such limits shall not apply to (i) awards taken in lieu of any cash retainer or meeting director fees, and (ii) a one-time initial grant to a non-employee director upon such non-employee director joining the WonderFi Board.

Any WonderFi Shares issued by WonderFi through the assumption or substitution of outstanding options or other equity-based awards from an acquired company shall not reduce the number of WonderFi Shares available for issuance pursuant to the exercise of awards granted under the WonderFi Incentive Plan.

Administration of the WonderFi Incentive Plan

The “ Plan Administrator ” is determined by the WonderFi Board. The WonderFi Incentive Plan may in the future continue to be administered by the WonderFi Board itself or delegated to a committee of the WonderFi Board. The Plan Administrator determines which directors, officers, consultants and employees are eligible to receive awards under the WonderFi Incentive Plan, the time or times at which awards may be granted, the conditions under which awards may be granted or forfeited to WonderFi, the number of WonderFi Shares to be covered by any award, the exercise price of any award, whether restrictions or limitations are to be imposed on the WonderFi Shares issuable pursuant to grants of any award, and the nature of any such restrictions or limitations, any acceleration of exercisability

  • 40 -

For questions or assistance, please call Morrow Sodali at 1.888.777.0836 toll-free or by email at [email protected]

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 WonderFi Incentive Plan and may adopt guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the WonderFi Incentive Plan and make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the WonderFi Incentive Plan.

Eligibility

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

Types of Awards

Awards of options, restricted share units, performance share units and deferred share units may be made under the WonderFi 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 WonderFi Incentive Plan and will generally be evidenced by an award agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the WonderFi 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 WonderFi Shares issued pursuant to awards.

Options

An option entitles a holder thereof to purchase a prescribed number of treasury WonderFi Shares at an exercise price set at the time of the grant. The Plan Administrator will establish the exercise price at the time each option is granted, which exercise price must in all cases be the volume weighted average trading price of WonderFi Shares on the primary exchange on which the WonderFi Shares are then listed for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of grant calculated by dividing the total value by the total volume of WonderFi Shares traded for the relevant period (the “ Market Price ”); provided that, for so long as the WonderFi Shares are listed and posted for trading on the on the primary exchange on which the WonderFi Shares are then listed, the Market Price shall not be less than the market price, as calculated under the policies of the on the primary exchange on which the WonderFi Shares are then listed; and provided, further, that with respect to an award made to a U.S. taxpayer such participant, the class of shares and the number of shares subject to such award shall be identified by the Plan Administrator prior to the start of the applicable five trading day period. In the event that such WonderFi Shares are not listed and posted for trading on any Exchange, the Market Price shall be the fair market value of such WonderFi Shares as determined by the WonderFi Board in its sole discretion and, with respect to an award made to a U.S. taxpayer, in accordance with Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “ Code ”).

Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the WonderFi Incentive Plan, each option expires on its respective expiry date. The Plan Administrator will have the authority to determine the vesting terms applicable to grants of options. Once an 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 WonderFi or a subsidiary of WonderFi and the participant. The Plan Administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any option becomes exercisable. The Plan Administrator may provide at the time of granting an option that the exercise of that option is subject to restrictions, in addition to those specified in the WonderFi 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 an 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 WonderFi Shares are listed, a participant may, in lieu of exercising an option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such option to WonderFi (a “ Cashless Exercise ”) in consideration for an amount from WonderFi equal to (i) the Market Price of the WonderFi Shares issuable on the exercise of such option

  • 41 -

For questions or assistance, please call Morrow Sodali at 1.888.777.0836 toll-free or by email at [email protected]

(or portion thereof) as of the date such option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the option (or portion thereof) surrendered relating to such WonderFi Shares (the “ In-the-Money Amount ”) by written notice to WonderFi indicating the number of options such participant wishes to exercise using the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that WonderFi may require. Subject to the provisions of the WonderFi Incentive Plan and the policies of any stock exchange on which the WonderFi Shares are listed, WonderFi will satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the participant such number of WonderFi Shares having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.

Restricted Share Units

A restricted share unit is a unit equivalent in value to a WonderFi Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of WonderFi which entitles the holder to receive one WonderFi Share (or the value thereof) for each restricted share unit after a specified vesting period (an “ RSU ”). The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the WonderFi 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 WonderFi 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 Common 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 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 WonderFi Share in respect of each vested RSU, (b) a cash payment or (c) a combination of WonderFi Shares and cash. Any such cash payments made by WonderFi shall be calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per WonderFi Share as at the settlement date. Subject to the provisions of the WonderFi Incentive Plan and except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, no settlement date for any RSU shall occur, and no WonderFi 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 performance share unit is a unit equivalent in value to a WonderFi Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of WonderFi, which entitles the holder to receive one WonderFi Share (or the value thereof) for each performance share unit after specific performance-based vesting criteria determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, have been satisfied (a “ PSU ”). 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 WonderFi Incentive Plan and such other terms and 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 WonderFi Share in respect of each vested PSU, (b) a cash payment, or (c) a combination of WonderFi Shares and cash. Any such cash payments made by WonderFi to a participant shall be calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per WonderFi Share as at the settlement date. Subject to the provisions of the WonderFi Incentive Plan and except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, no settlement date for any PSU shall occur, and no WonderFi 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 deferred share unit is a unit equivalent in value to a WonderFi Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of WonderFi which entitles the holder to receive one WonderFi Share (or, at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, the cash value thereof) for each deferred share unit on a future date (a “ DSU ”). The WonderFi Board may fix from time to time a portion of the total compensation (including annual retainer) paid by WonderFi to a director in a calendar year for service on the WonderFi 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 WonderFi 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 WonderFi Share on the date of grant. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested DSU for: (a) one fully paid and non-assessable WonderFi 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 WonderFi Incentive Plan by WonderFi 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 WonderFi 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 WonderFi 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 WonderFi 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.

Share Based Awards

The Plan Administrator may grant other types of equity-based or equity-related awards not otherwise described by the terms of the WonderFi Incentive Plan (including the grant or offer for sale of unrestricted WonderFi Shares) in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, being subject to performance criteria, or in satisfaction of such obligations, as the Plan Administrator shall determine. Such awards may involve the transfer of actual WonderFi Share to participants, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value WonderFi Shares. The grant of any other types of equity-based or equity related awards not otherwise described more specifically in the summary of the WonderFi Incentive Plan is subject to the prior approval of the TSX.

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 WonderFi 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.

Term

While the WonderFi 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 WonderFi. All awards must vest and settle in accordance with the provisions of the WonderFi Incentive Plan and any applicable award agreement, which award agreement may include an expiry date for a specific award.

Any option, RSU, PSU, DSU or other award held by the participant that has not
been exercised, surrendered or settled as of the termination date of the participant,
as defined and determined in accordance with the WonderFi Incentive Plan (the
Termination Date”) shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the
Termination Date.
Termination without
Cause
A portion of any unvested options, RSUs, PSUs, DSUs or other awards shall

Termination Date.
In the case of vested awards of a U.S. taxpayer, vested RSUs will be settled within
90 days after the Termination Date, vested DSUs will be settled in accordance

all cases such PSUs will be settled by March 15thof the year immediately
following the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs.

Event Provisions
Death Any award that is held by the participant that has not vested as of the date of the
death of such participant shall vest on such 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 an award other than an option, that is
held by a participant that is not a U.S. taxpayer, 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.

participant remaining in the service of WonderFi or its subsidiary will become
100% vested, and (ii) outstanding award that vests based on the achievement of
performance goals 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.

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

other award held by the participant that has not been exercised or settled as of the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of any award that constitutes “ deferred compensation ” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), the payment of which is triggered by or would be accelerated upon a Change in Control, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control for Awards granted to any participant who is a U.S. taxpayer unless the transaction qualifies as “ a change in control event ” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

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, 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.

Notwithstanding the above, and subject to the rules of any applicable stock exchange, the approval of shareholders is required to affect any of the following amendments to the WonderFi Incentive Plan:
