First Amendment to
Business Combination Agreement
As
previously disclosed, on July 18, 2023, Jupiter Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Jupiter”), 1427702 B.C.
Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia (“TopCo”), Filament Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of TopCo (“Merger Sub”), and Filament Health Corp., a corporation organized
under the laws of British Columbia (“Filament”), entered into a business combination agreement (the “Original Business
Combination Agreement”), which provides for a proposed business combination through a series of related transactions (collectively,
the “Proposed Business Combination”).
On
December 5, 2023, Jupiter, TopCo, Merger Sub and Filament entered into the First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement (the “First
Amendment”) to provide for certain convertible notes to be issued by Filament pursuant to its announced Securities Purchase Agreement
with Helena Global Investment Opportunities 1 Ltd., an affiliate of Helena Partners Inc. Except as expressly amended by the First Amendment,
the terms of the Original Business Combination Agreement remain in full force and effect.
The
foregoing description of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
Adjournment of Business
Combination Special Meeting
On
December 12, 2023, Jupiter reconvened and then adjourned, without conducting any business, the special meeting of stockholders of Jupiter
(the “Business Combination Special Meeting”) scheduled to reconvene on Tuesday, December 12, 2023, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time,
until Monday, December 18, 2023, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time, to be held as a completely virtual meeting conducted via live webcast, which
will be available at https://www.cstproxy.com/jupiteracquisitioncorp/sm2023. At the Business Combination Special Meeting, once
further reconvened, stockholders of Jupiter will be asked to vote on the proposals described in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus
filed by Jupiter with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 13, 2023 (as further amended or
supplemented, the “definitive proxy statement/prospectus”), relating to the Proposed Business Combination.
If you
properly submitted public shares for redemption in connection with the Business Combination Special Meeting, such shares will be redeemed
if Jupiter implements the proposed extension of time to complete an initial business combination in connection with the separate special
meeting of stockholders of Jupiter (the “Extension Special Meeting”) scheduled to be held on Thursday, December 14, 2023 at
12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. If you do not wish to have such public shares redeemed or wish to redeem in connection with the Business Combination
Special Meeting but not the Extension Special Meeting, you must contact Jupiter’s transfer agent prior to the Extension Special
Meeting. Information about the procedures for redemption or withdrawing redemptions is included in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus,
which is available without charge on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov.
In connection
with the adjournment of the Business Combination Special Meeting, Jupiter is extending the deadline for public stockholders
to exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination Special Meeting, or to withdraw any previously delivered
demand for redemption in connection with the Business Combination Special Meeting received after the Extension Special Meeting, to 5:00
p.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, December 14, 2023 (two business days before the current date of the Business Combination Special Meeting).
Important Information About the Proposed
Business Combination and Where to Find It
This
Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) relates to the Proposed Business Combination between Jupiter and Filament
and may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the Proposed Business Combination. The Proposed Business Combination will
be submitted to Jupiter’s stockholders for their consideration and approval. TopCo has filed a registration statement on Form F-4
(File No. 333-273972) and amendments and supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC, which contains a
preliminary proxy statement/prospectus that constitutes (i) a preliminary proxy statement in connection with Jupiter’s solicitation
of proxies for the vote by Jupiter’s stockholders to approve the Proposed Business Combination and other matters as described in
the Registration Statement and (ii) a preliminary prospectus relating to the offer of TopCo securities to be issued in the Proposed Business
Combination. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on November 13, 2023, and TopCo and Jupiter filed the definitive
proxy statement/prospectus with the SEC on that same date. Jupiter and TopCo also intend to file other relevant documents with the SEC
and, in the case of Filament and TopCo, with the applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities, regarding the Proposed Business
Combination. On November 13, 2023, after the Registration Statement was declared effective, Jupiter commenced the mailing of the definitive
proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its stockholders as of the record date established for voting on the Proposed
Business Combination. The Proposed Business Combination will also be submitted to the securityholders of Filament for their consideration
and approval. JUPITER’S STOCKHOLDERS AND OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, THE PRELIMINARY
PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, AND ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO, IN CONNECTION WITH
JUPITER’S SOLICITATION OF PROXIES FOR ITS SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD TO APPROVE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROPOSED
BUSINESS COMBINATION, BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS CONTAIN OR WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT JUPITER, FILAMENT, TOPCO AND THE PROPOSED
BUSINESS COMBINATION.
Jupiter’s
stockholders and other interested parties may also obtain a copy of the Registration Statement, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus
and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, and any amendments or supplements thereto, as well as other documents filed with the SEC
regarding the Proposed Business Combination and other documents filed with the SEC by Jupiter, without charge, at the SEC’s website
located at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to: Jupiter Acquisition Corporation, 11450 SE Dixie Hwy, Suite 105, Hobe Sound, FL 33455.
As the Registration Statement contains certain information about Filament, the Registration Statement has also been made available under
Filament’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
INVESTMENT
IN ANY SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR ANY OTHER REGULATORY AUTHORITY, NOR HAS ANY AUTHORITY
PASSED UPON OR ENDORSED THE MERITS OF THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION PURSUANT TO WHICH ANY SECURITIES ARE TO BE OFFERED OR THE ACCURACY
OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
Forward-Looking Statements
This
Current Report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the
United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian
securities laws. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,”
“project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “could,” “continue,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” “possible,”
“potential,” “predict,” “scheduled,” “should,” “would.” “seek,”
“target” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical
matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Generally, statements that are not historical
facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, and any
statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying
assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current
Report, and on the current beliefs and expectations of Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s management and are not predictions
of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and
must not be relied on by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Although
Filament, TopCo and Jupiter believe that their respective plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking
statements are reasonable, none of Filament, TopCo or Jupiter can assure you that any of them will achieve or realize these plans, intentions,
or expectations. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual
events and circumstances are beyond the control of Filament, TopCo and Jupiter. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number
of risks and uncertainties, including (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination
of the Proposed Business Combination; (ii) the failure of either Jupiter or Filament prior to the Proposed Business Combination, or TopCo
after the Proposed Business Combination, to execute their business strategy; (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted
against Filament, TopCo or Jupiter or others following the announcement of the Proposed Business Combination; (iv) the inability to complete
the Proposed Business Combination due to the failure to obtain any necessary interim order or other required court orders in respect of
Filament’s statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with respect to the Proposed Business
Combination or the failure to obtain the approval of Filament’s shareholders or Jupiter’s stockholders or to satisfy other
conditions to closing; (v) changes to the proposed structure of the Proposed Business Combination that may be required or appropriate
as a result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to obtaining regulatory approval of the Proposed Business Combination;
(vi) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards prior to and following the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination;
(vii) the risk that the Proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Filament as a result of the announcement
and consummation of the Proposed Business Combination; (viii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business
Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of TopCo to grow and manage growth profitably,
maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key employees; (ix) costs related to the Proposed Business Combination;
(x) failure to comply with and stay abreast of changes in laws or regulations applicable to Filament’s business, including health
and safety regulations and policies; (xi) Filament’s estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect
to redemptions by Jupiter’s stockholders and purchase price and other adjustments; (xii) any downturn or volatility in economic
or business conditions; (xiii) the effects of COVID-19 or other epidemics or pandemics; (xiv) changes in the competitive environment affecting
Filament or its customers, including Filament’s inability to introduce, or obtain regulatory approval for, new products; (xv) the
failure to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms; (xvi) the impact of pricing pressure and erosion; (xvii) failures or delays
in Filament’s supply chain; (xviii) Filament’s ability to protect its intellectual property and avoid infringement by others,
or claims of infringement against Filament; (xix) the possibility that Filament, TopCo or Jupiter may be adversely affected by other economic,
business and/or competitive factors; (xx) the failure of Filament or TopCo to respond to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
and (xxi) Filament’s estimates of its financial performance; and those factors discussed in documents of Jupiter or TopCo filed,
or to be filed, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or any assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially
from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that none of Filament, TopCo or Jupiter presently
knows or that Filament, TopCo and Jupiter currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained
in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s
expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report. Filament, TopCo and Jupiter anticipate
that subsequent events and developments will cause Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s assessments to change. However,
while Filament, TopCo and Jupiter may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Filament, TopCo and
Jupiter specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Filament’s,
TopCo’s or Jupiter’s assessments as of any date after the date of this Current Report. Accordingly, undue reliance should
not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
No Offer or Solicitation
This
Current Report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote
or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful

by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities

a prospectus in accordance with the requirements of applicable Canadian securities laws or an exemption therefrom. This Current Report

in any province or territory of Canada. In Canada, no prospectus has been filed with any securities commission or similar regulatory authority
in respect of any of the securities referred to herein.
Participants in Solicitation

Filament, TopCo, and certain of their respective directors, executive officers, and other members of management and employees may, under
SEC rules, be deemed to be participants in the solicitations of proxies from Jupiter’s stockholders in connection with the Proposed
Business Combination. Information regarding Jupiter’s directors and executive officers is available in its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on March 10, 2023. Information regarding the persons who

as a holder of Company Shares or any interest therein (other than the rights set out in this Article 4) at or after the Effective
Time and the name of each such Dissenting Shareholder shall be removed as the registered holder of such Company Shares from the applicable
securities register of the Company maintained by or on behalf of the Company as at the Effective Time, as provided in Section 3.1(b).
Section
4.5 For greater certainty, in addition to any other restrictions in the Interim Order, no Person shall be entitled to exercise

Article 5
CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENTS
Section
5.1 Prior to the Effective Time, TopCo will deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of and to
be held on behalf of the Company Shareholders entitled to receive the Exchange Consideration in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(xi), evidence
of the Exchange Consideration in the book-entry form, provided that no Exchange Consideration will be deemed to be issued or delivered
to any Company Shareholder unless and until such Company Shareholder shall have executed and delivered the Letter of Transmittal required
by Section 3.1(c)(xi). All TopCo Common Shares and Company Earnout Shares issued as part of the Exchange Consideration pursuant to Section
3.1(c)(xi) shall be deemed to be validly issued and outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable shares for the purposes of the BCBCA.
Section
5.2 Following the deposit with the Exchange Agent of evidence of the Exchange Consideration in accordance with Section 5.1, TopCo
will be fully and completely discharged from its obligation to pay the Exchange Consideration to the Company Shareholders pursuant to
Section 3.1(c)(xi), and the rights of such holders will be limited to receiving, from the Exchange Agent, the TopCo Common Shares and
the Company Earnout Shares to which they are entitled in accordance with this Plan of Arrangement. After the Effective Time and until
surrendered for cancellation as contemplated by this Article 5, each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented
one or more Company Shares shall be deemed at all times to represent only the right to receive in exchange therefor the Exchange Consideration
in book-entry form, that the holder of such certificate is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(xi).
Section
5.3 Until such time as a Company Shareholder deposits with the Exchange Agent a duly completed Letter of Transmittal and such
documents, certificates and instruments contemplated by the Letter of Transmittal and such other documents and instruments as the Exchange
Agent or TopCo reasonably require, that Company Shareholder will not be entitled to the Exchange Consideration, and no Exchange Consideration
will be deemed to be issued or delivered to that Company Shareholder and any evidence of the Exchange Consideration to which such Company
Shareholder would otherwise be entitled will, in each case, be held by the Exchange Agent as agent on behalf of and for the benefit of
such Company Shareholder for issuance and delivery to such Company Shareholder, without interest and net of all applicable withholdings
and other taxes, if any, upon delivery of the Letter of Transmittal, and such documents, certificates and instruments contemplated by
the Letter of Transmittal, and such other documents, certificates and instruments as the Exchange Agent or TopCo reasonably require,
subject to the provisions of this Article 5.
Section
5.4 Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent for cancellation of a certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in the form required
by TopCo and the Exchange Agent) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more Company Shares, or in the case
of Company Shares held in the book-entry form, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, and such additional documents,
certificates and instruments as TopCo, the Company and the Exchange Agent may reasonably require, the holder of such surrendered certificate
(or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof), or the deliverer of such Letter of Transmittal, as applicable, will be entitled to receive, and
the Exchange Agent will, as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, deliver to such holder, evidence of the Exchange Consideration,
in book entry form, to which such holder is entitled under the Arrangement, and any certificate so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled.
Section
5.5 If any portion of the Exchange Consideration is to be issued to a Person other than the Company Shareholder in whose name
the surrendered certificate or the transferred Company Share in book-entry form is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance
of the applicable portion of the Exchange Consideration that (a) either such certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise
be in proper form for transfer or such Company Share in book-entry form shall be properly transferred and (b) the Person requesting such
consideration pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer Taxes required as a result of such consideration being issued to a Person other
than the registered holder of such certificate or Company Share in book-entry form or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent
that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are not payable.
Section
5.6 No interest will be paid or accrued on the Exchange Consideration (or any portion thereof). From and after the Effective Time,
until surrendered or transferred, as applicable, in accordance with this Article 5, each Company Share shall solely represent the
right to receive a portion of the Exchange Consideration to which such Company Share is entitled to receive in accordance with the Allocation
Schedule.
Section
5.7 Any portion of the aggregate Exchange Consideration or the evidence thereof that remains unclaimed by the Company Shareholders
six (6) years following the Effective Time shall be delivered to TopCo or as otherwise instructed by TopCo, and any right or claim to
payment under the Plan of Arrangement that remains outstanding six (6) years following the Effective Date shall cease to represent a
right or claim of any kind or nature, and the right of the Company Shareholders to receive the applicable portion of the aggregate Exchange
Consideration in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement shall terminate and be deemed to be surrendered and forfeited to TopCo, for
no consideration.
Section
5.8 In no event will any Person be entitled to a fractional TopCo Common Share or fractional Company Earnout Share. Where the
aggregate number of TopCo Common Shares or Company Earnout Shares to be issued to a Person pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement would
result in a fraction of a TopCo Common Share or Company Earnout Share being issuable, the number of TopCo Common Shares and Company Earnout
Shares to be received by such Person will be rounded down to the nearest whole TopCo Common Share or Company Earnout Share, as the case
may be.
Section
5.9 No dividend or other distribution declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to the Exchange Consideration with
a record date after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate that, immediately prior to the
Effective Time, represented outstanding Company Shares unless and until the holder of such certificate shall have complied with the provisions
of Article 5. Subject to applicable Law and to Section 6.1, at the time of such compliance, there shall, in addition to the delivery
of evidence of the portion of the Exchange Consideration to which such holder is entitled under the Arrangement, be delivered to such
holder, without interest, the amount of the dividend or other distribution with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid
with respect to such Exchange Consideration.
Article 6
EFFECT OF THE ARRANGEMENT; WITHHOLDINGS; TAX TREATMENT
Section
6.1 From and after the Effective Time: (a) this Plan of Arrangement will take precedence and priority over any and all Company
Securities issued prior to the Effective Time, (b) the rights and obligations of the Company Securityholders, the Company, SPAC, Merger
Sub, TopCo, the Exchange Agent and any transfer agent or other exchange agent therefor in relation thereto, will be solely as provided
for in this Plan of Arrangement, and (c) all actions, causes of action, claims or proceedings (actual or contingent and whether or not
previously asserted) based on or in any way relating to any Company Securities will be deemed to have been settled, compromised, released
and determined without liability except as set forth in this Plan of Arrangement.
Section
6.2 Withholding.
| (a) | Each
of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, the Exchange Agent and their respective
agents (each, a “Withholding Agent”), shall be entitled to deduct and
withhold from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement or the Amalgamation
such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such
payment under the Code, the Tax Act or any provision of provincial, state, local or foreign
Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing
authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Plan of Arrangement
as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was
made. If any Withholding Agent determines that any amount payable pursuant to this Plan of
Arrangement is subject to deduction and/or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding
required in respect of compensatory amounts), then such Withholding Agent shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to (i) provide notice to such Person of any such deduction or withholding
as soon as reasonably practicable after such determination, and (ii) cooperate in good faith
to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding (including through the request and
provision of any statements, forms or other documents to reduce or eliminate any such deduction
or withholding). |
| (b) | Without
limiting the foregoing, each Withholding Agent, as applicable, is hereby authorized to sell,
on the open market and with customary commercial terms, to a Person that is not SPAC or any
of its Affiliates, on behalf of and for the benefit of such Person and in accordance with
Section 6.2(c) below, such portion of the Company Shareholder Transaction Consideration as
is necessary to provide sufficient funds to the Withholding Agent to enable it to comply
with such deduction and withholding requirement and the Withholding Agent shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to notify such Person thereof and shall remit the applicable portion of
the net proceeds of such sale to the appropriate Governmental Authority and, if applicable,
any portion of such net proceeds that it is not required to be so remitted shall be paid
to such Person. |
| (c) | To
the extent any Withholding Agent sells any portion of the Exchange Consideration as contemplated
under Section 6.2(b) above, (i) the Withholding Agent shall be acting on behalf of and for
the benefit of the Person in respect of which the relevant deduction or withholding is made,
solely as an agent of such Person, for administrative convenience, (ii) such Person shall
be treated as the seller, and prior to the sale, the beneficial owner of such Exchange Consideration
for all Tax purposes, including Tax reporting, and (iii) such Person shall be responsible
for, and hold the Withholding Agent and each of its respective representatives and Affiliates,
harmless from, any Taxes arising as a result of the sale of such Person’s Exchange
Consideration. Any costs or expenses incurred by the relevant Withholding Agent in connection
with such sale shall be borne by, and deducted from the payment of any net proceeds of such
sale to, the applicable Person. |

Meetings by Telephone or Other Communications Medium. A director may participate in a meeting of the directors or of any committee
of the directors in person or by telephone or other communications medium if all directors participating in the meeting, whether in person
or by telephone or other communications medium, are able to communicate with each other. A director who participates in a meeting in a
manner contemplated by this Article 17.4 is deemed for all purposes of the Business Corporations Act and these Articles to be present
at the meeting and to have agreed to participate in that manner.
17.5
Calling of Meetings. A director may, and the secretary or an assistant secretary, if any, on the request of a director must,
call a meeting of the directors at any time.
17.6
Notice of Meetings. Other than for meetings held at regular intervals as determined by the directors pursuant to Article 17.1,
reasonable notice of each meeting of the directors, specifying the place, day and time of that meeting must be given to each of the directors
by any method set out in Article 23.1 or orally or by telephone.
17.7
When Notice Not Required. It is not necessary to give notice of a meeting of the directors to a director if:
| (a) | the meeting is to be held immediately following a meeting of shareholders at which that director was elected
or appointed or is the meeting of the directors at which that director is appointed; or |
| (b) | the director has waived notice of the meeting. |
17.8
Meeting Valid Despite Failure to Give Notice. The accidental omission to give notice of any meeting of directors to any director,
or the non-receipt of any notice by any director, does not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting.
17.9
Waiver of Notice of Meetings. Any director may file with the Company a document signed by the director waiving notice of any
past, present or future meeting of the directors and may at any time withdraw that waiver with respect to meetings of the directors held
after that withdrawal. After sending a waiver with respect to all future meetings of the directors, and until that waiver is withdrawn,
no notice of any meeting of the directors need be given to that director and all meetings of the directors so held are deemed not to be
improperly called or constituted by reason of notice not having been given to such director.

Quorum. The quorum necessary for the transaction of the business of the directors may be set by the directors and, if not so
set, is deemed to be set at a majority of the directors or, if the number of directors is set at one, is deemed to be set at one director,
and that director may constitute a meeting.
17.11
Validity of Acts Where Appointment Defective. Subject to the Business Corporations Act, an act of a director or officer

messages, is as valid and effective as if it had been passed at a meeting of the directors or of the committee of the directors duly called
and held. Such resolution may be in two or more counterparts which together are deemed to constitute one resolution in writing. A resolution
passed in that manner is effective on the date stated in the resolution or, if no date is stated in the resolution, on the latest date
stated on any counterpart. A resolution of the directors or of any committee of the directors passed in accordance with this Article 17.12
is deemed to be a proceeding at a meeting of directors or of the committee of the directors and to be as valid and effective as if it
had been passed at a meeting of the directors or of the committee of the directors that satisfies all the requirements of the Business
Corporations Act and all the requirements of these Articles relating to meetings of the directors or of a committee of the directors.

reorganization, merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation, business combination or sale of assets provided for below), then in
the event of a subsequent Class B Automatic Conversion Event, the holders of the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares shall be entitled to
receive, upon conversion thereof, the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property that would have otherwise been receivable
upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change by a holder of Common Shares holding the number of Common Shares into which
such Class B Non-Voting Common Shares would have been converted as of immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change,
all subject to further adjustment as provided herein. |
| (d) | In case of any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, arrangement, reorganization or other business combination
involving the Company and any other corporation or other entity or Person in which the Common Shares are converted into or exchanged for
shares or other securities or property (in each case, other than a Change of Control), then in the event of a subsequent Class B Automatic
Conversion Event, the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares shall thereafter be convertible (or shall be converted into a security which shall
be convertible) into the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property to which a holder of Common Shares would have been
entitled upon such event if the holder held the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of such Class B Non-Voting Common Shares
as of immediately prior to such event; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the board of directors
of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Article 30.6(d) with respect to the rights and interest
thereafter of the holders of the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 30.6(d)
(including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Class B Conversion Rate) shall thereafter be applicable,

31.1
Automatic Conversion of Class B Non-Voting Common Shares.
All Class
B Non-Voting Common Shares shall be converted automatically into Common Shares in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article
30.6 and this Part 31 if, at any time during the Earnout Period:
| (a) | on any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period, the Trading Price of the Common
Shares is greater than or equal to USD$12.00 (subject to the adjustment provisions set forth in Article 30.6) (a “Class B Earnout
Trigger Event”); or |
| (b) | any transaction resulting in a Change of Control is consummated |
(the occurrence of any
event in clause (a) or (b), as applicable, a “Class B Automatic Conversion Event”).
31.2
Automatic Conversion.
Upon the occurrence of a Class B Automatic
Conversion Event, all the then issued and outstanding Class B Non-Voting Common Shares shall be converted automatically in
accordance with Article 30.6 without any further action by the holders thereof and whether or not the certificates (if any)
representing such shares are surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent. The Company shall provide all holders of the Class B
Non-Voting Common Shares written notice as promptly as practicable following (a) the date of a
Class B Automatic Conversion Event informing the holders of the occurrence of a Class B Automatic Conversion Event or (b) the
final date of the Earnout Period that a Class B Earnout Trigger Event was not satisfied as of the end of the Earnout Period and that
the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares will be redeemed in accordance with these Articles. In the case of a Class B Automatic
Conversion Event (a) relating to the satisfaction of a Class B Earnout Trigger Event, the automatic conversion of the applicable
Class B Non-Voting Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of the Class B Earnout
Trigger Event or (b) relating to a Change of Control, the automatic conversion of the applicable Class B Non-Voting Common Shares
shall be deemed to have occurred immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control (as applicable, the “Class
B Automatic Conversion Time”). The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the Common Shares
issuable upon any automatic conversion (to the extent the Common Shares are certificated) unless the certificates evidencing such
Class B Non-Voting Common Shares being converted, if any, are either delivered to the Company at the registered office of the
Company or to its transfer agent, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent, that such certificates have been lost,
stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company (and its transfer agent, if
applicable) from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith.

31.3
Effect of Automatic Conversion.
On the occurrence of a Class B Automatic Conversion
Event, all rights with respect to the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares so converted shall terminate, except for the right of the holder
thereof to receive the number of Common Shares into which such Class B Non-Voting Common Shares have been converted under these Articles.
Upon the occurrence of a Class B Automatic Conversion Event, any certificates representing the applicable Class B Non-Voting Common Shares
shall cease to have or to represent any rights with respect to such Class B Non-Voting Common Shares and shall represent only the right
of the holder to receive the Common Shares into which they were converted under these Articles. The Company or its agent shall, promptly
upon request of any holder whose Class B Non-Voting Common Shares have been converted into Common Shares and upon surrender by such holder
to the Company of the outstanding certificate(s) formerly representing such Class B Non-Voting Common Shares (if any) at the registered
office of the Company or of its transfer agent, issue and deliver to such holder, a certificate or certificates or written acknowledgment
for the number of Common Shares into which the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares were converted at the Class B Automatic Conversion Time
(to the extent the Common Shares are certificated). Any conversion under this Part 31 shall be deemed to have been made upon the occurrence
of the Class B Automatic Conversion Event and the Person or Persons who at the time of the Class B Automatic Conversion Event were the
record holder or holders of the Class B Non-Voting Common Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of
the Common Shares into which they were converted as of such time.

the holders of the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by these Articles prior to such event.
(c)
If the Common Shares of the Company shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class, whether by capital
reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, or a reorganization, merger, amalgamation,
arrangement, consolidation, business combination or sale of assets provided for below), then in the event of a subsequent Class C Automatic
Conversion Event, the holders of the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall be entitled to receive, upon conversion thereof, the kind
and amount of shares or other securities or property that would have otherwise been receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification
or other change by a holder of Common Shares holding the number of Common Shares into which such Class C Non-Voting Common Shares would
have been converted as of immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided
herein.
| -31- | FASKEN MARTINEAU DUMOULIN LLP |
| (d) | In case of any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, arrangement, reorganization or other business combination
involving the Company and any other corporation or other entity or Person in which the Common Shares are converted into or exchanged for
shares or other securities or property (in each case, other than a Change of Control), then in the event of a subsequent Class C Automatic
Conversion Event, the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall thereafter be convertible (or shall be converted into a security which shall
be convertible) into the kind and amount of shares or other securities or property to which a holder of Common Shares would have been
entitled upon such event if the holder held the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of such Class C Non-Voting Common Shares
as of immediately prior to such event; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the board of directors
of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Article 32.6(d) with respect to the rights and interest
thereafter of the holders of the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 32.6(d)
(including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Class C Conversion Rate) shall thereafter be applicable,
as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of
the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares. |

AUTOMATIC CONVERSIONS OF CLASS C NON-VOTING COMMON SHARES
33.1
Automatic Conversion of Class C Non-Voting Common Shares.
All Class
C Non-Voting Common Shares shall be converted automatically into Common Shares in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article
32.6 and this Part 33 if, at any time during the Earnout Period:
| (a) | on any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period, the Trading Price of the Common
Shares is greater than or equal to USD$15.00 (subject to the adjustment provisions set forth in Article 32.6) (a “Class C Earnout
Trigger Event”); or |
(b)
any transaction resulting in a Change of Control is consummated
(the occurrence of any
event in clause (a) or (b), as applicable, a “Class C Automatic Conversion Event”).
33.2
Automatic Conversion.
Upon the occurrence of a Class C Automatic Conversion
Event, all the then issued and outstanding Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall be converted automatically in accordance with Article
32.6 without any further action by the holders thereof and whether or not the certificates (if any) representing such shares are surrendered
to the Company or its transfer agent. The Company shall provide all holders of the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares written
notice as promptly as practicable following (a) the date of a Class C Automatic Conversion Event informing the holders of the occurrence
of a Class C Automatic Conversion Event or (b) the final date of the Earnout Period that a Class C Earnout Trigger Event was not satisfied
as of the end of the Earnout Period and that the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares will be redeemed in accordance with these Articles.
In the case of a Class C Automatic Conversion Event (a) relating to the satisfaction of a Class C Earnout Trigger Event, the automatic
conversion of the applicable Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of
the Class C Earnout Trigger Event or (b) relating to a Change of Control, the automatic conversion of the applicable Class C Non-Voting
Common Shares shall be deemed to have occurred immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control (as applicable, the “Class
C Automatic Conversion Time”). The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the Common Shares issuable
upon any automatic conversion (to the extent the Common Shares are certificated) unless the certificates evidencing such Class C Non-Voting
Common Shares being converted, if any, are either delivered to the Company at the registered office of the Company or to its transfer
agent, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent, that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes
an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company (and its transfer agent, if applicable) from any loss incurred by it
in connection therewith.
| -32- | FASKEN MARTINEAU DUMOULIN LLP |
33.3
Effect of Automatic Conversion.
On the occurrence of a Class C Automatic
Conversion Event, all rights with respect to the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares so converted shall terminate, except for the right
of the holder thereof to receive the number of Common Shares into which such Class C Non-Voting Common Shares have been converted
under these Articles. Upon the occurrence of a Class C Automatic Conversion Event, any certificates representing the applicable
Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall cease to have or to represent any rights with respect to such Class C Non-Voting Common
Shares and shall represent only the right of the holder to receive the Common Shares into which they were converted under these
Articles. The Company or its agent shall, promptly upon request of any holder whose Class C Non-Voting Common Shares have been
converted into Common Shares and upon surrender by such holder to the Company of the outstanding certificate(s) formerly
representing such Class C Non-Voting Common Shares (if any) at the registered office of the Company or of its transfer agent, issue
and deliver to such holder, a certificate or certificates or written acknowledgment for the number of Common Shares into which the
Class C Non-Voting Common Shares were converted at the Class C Automatic Conversion Time (to the extent the Common Shares are
certificated). Any conversion under this Part 33 shall be deemed to have been made upon the occurrence of the Class C Automatic
Conversion Event and the Person or Persons who at the time of the Class C Automatic Conversion Event were the record holder or
holders of the Class C Non-Voting Common Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of the Common
Shares into which they were converted as of such time.
