Upon the Closing, assuming that the Purchaser (as defined below) consummates upon the Closing the anticipated investment of $2,500,000, the Psyence Parties will be deemed to have waived in full the Minimum Cash Condition and the PIPE Investment Condition. As a result of such waiver, the proposed Business Combination may be consummated without regard to the level of proceeds, if any, as may result from the proposed Business Combination in accordance with its terms.

Financing Arrangements

On January 15, 2024, Pubco entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) by and among Pubco, Psyence, Sponsor and a purchaser (the “Purchaser”) relating to up to four senior secured convertible notes (collectively, the “Notes”), obligations under which will be guaranteed by certain assets of Pubco and Psyence, issuable to the Purchaser at or after the Closing, as the case may be, for the aggregate principal amount of up to $12,500,000 in exchange for up to $10,000,000 in subscription amounts.

The First Tranche Note will be a total of $3,125,000 of principal in exchange for a total of $2,500,000 in subscription amounts and will be issuable to the Purchaser substantially concurrently with, and contingent upon, the consummation of the Business Combination or at such other time and place as Pubco and the Purchaser mutually agree upon.

The Second Tranche Note will be a total of $3,125,000 of principal in exchange for a total of $2,500,000 in subscription amounts; provided, however, that, in the event that the Market Value Traded as of the Second Tranche Closing is less than the full subscription amount of the Second Tranche Note, (A) Purchaser will invest an amount equal to the Market Value Traded as of the Second Tranche Closing and (B) on the later of (i) each subsequent 30 day anniversary of the Second Tranche Closing or (ii) the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the underlying shares for such portion of the Second Tranche Note, Purchaser will invest an amount equal to the Market Value Traded as of such date, until the Second Tranche Note is funded in full, subject to the conditions set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

The Third Tranche Note, if any, will be a total of $3,125,000 of principal in exchange for a total of $2,500,000 in subscription amounts.

The Fourth Tranche Note, if any, will be a total of $3,125,000 of principal in exchange for a total of $2,500,000 in subscription amounts.

The material terms of the Notes are as follows: On the original issuance date, interest shall begin accruing at 8.0% per annum based on the outstanding principal amount of the Note, payable monthly in arrears in cash or in common shares of Pubco (“Common Shares”) (at the Conversion Price). For purposes of the Notes, the Conversion Price, commencing on the first trading day following the closing of the Business Combination shall be $10.00; provided, however, it may be subject to adjustments according to the terms and reset dates included in the Note.

Additionally, in consideration of the willingness of the Purchaser to enter into the transactions that are the subject of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes, Pubco or certain of its shareholders shall deliver a structuring fee of Common Shares (the “Structuring Shares”) in connection with the Note per the terms of the attached agreement, with (i) 1,300,000 Structuring Shares delivered to the Purchaser at the First Tranche Closing and (ii) following the First Tranche Closing, 1,700,000 Structuring Shares delivered pursuant to the terms set forth in the call option agreements to be entered into between Purchaser and certain shareholders of Pubco.

In connection with the foregoing, Pubco and the Purchaser will enter into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which Pubco will file a Registration Statement covering the resale of registrable securities issuable pursuant to the Note.

In connection with the foregoing and as a condition to each closing under the Securities Purchase Agreement, Sponsor and Parent, shall have entered into a lock-up agreement, pursuant to which, Sponsor and Parent will agree, subject to customary exceptions, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares (the “Lock-Up Securities”), whether currently owned or acquired later by Sponsor or Parent, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities until 180 days following the closing of the Business Combination, or such later date pursuant to the terms set forth therein.

No Offer or Solicitation

This communication is for informational purposes only and is not intended to and does not constitute, or form a part of, an offer, invitation or the solicitation of an offer or invitation to purchase, otherwise acquire, subscribe for, sell or otherwise dispose of any securities, or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, pursuant to the proposed business combination or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law.

Participants in the Solicitation

Newcourt, Psyence, the other parties to the Business Combination Agreement, and their respective directors and executive officers, other members of management and employees may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the potential transaction described in this communication under the rules of the SEC.

Information regarding other persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the solicitation of the shareholders in connection with the potential transaction and a description of their interests will be set forth in the Registration Statement when it is filed with the SEC.

Forward Looking Statements

This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about future financial and operating results, our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations, products and services; and other statements identified by words such as “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimated,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “outlook” or words of similar meaning.

Forward-looking statements in this communication include statements regarding the intended closing of the proposed business combination, the meeting of the closing conditions to the proposed business combination, the trading of Pubco securities on the Nasdaq and the execution of the clinical trial within the context of palliative care. These forward looking statements are based on a number of assumptions, including the assumptions that the closing conditions to the proposed business combination will be met, that Newcourt will obtain the necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals to complete the proposed business combination and that there will be access to capital to execute on Psyence’s strategy There are numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among others: the inability to complete the proposed business combination; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination; demand for the Combined Company’s securities being less than anticipated; fluctuations in the price of Newcourt’s common shares, any further delays in the proposed business combination due to additional amendments to the Business Combination Agreement; and Newcourt not raising the investment amount expected, or any funds at all. Actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Nothing in this communication should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except as required by law, Newcourt and Psyence do not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

Newcourt and Psyence make no medical, treatment or health benefit claims about the Combined Company’s proposed products. The efficacy of psilocybin, psilocybin analogues, or other psychedelic compounds or nutraceutical products remains the subject of ongoing research. There is no assurance that the use of psilocybin, psilocybin analogues, or other psychedelic compounds or nutraceuticals can diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or condition. Vigorous scientific research and clinical trials are needed. Psyence Biomed has not completed the clinical trials for the use of its proposed products. Any references to quality, consistency, efficacy, and safety of potential products do not imply that Psyence or the Combined Company verified such in clinical trials or that the Combined Company will complete such trials. If the Combined Company cannot obtain the approvals or research necessary to commercialize its business, it may have a material adverse effect on the Combined Company’s performance and operations.

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement referenced above and other documents filed by Newcourt and Pubco from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as projected financial information and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Newcourt and Psyence disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of developments occurring after the date of this communication or other circumstances. Forecasts and estimates regarding Psyence’s industry and end markets are based on sources we believe to be reliable, however there can be no assurance these forecasts and estimates will prove accurate in whole or in part. Annualized, pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purpose only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.

All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company and Psyence to the Purchaser regarding the Company, Psyence and their respective subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, are true and correct and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company and Psyence acknowledge and agree that the Purchaser does not make and has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.3 hereof.

(x) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.3, neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would require the registration of any such securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

(y) Solvency. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company and Psyence as of each Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s and Psyence’s assets exceed the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s and Psyence’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s and Psyence’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company and Psyence, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company and Psyence, together with the proceeds the Company and Psyence would receive, were they to liquidate all of their assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of their liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company and Psyence do not intend to incur debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company and Psyence have no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead them to believe that they will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. Neither the Company, Psyence nor any of their respective subsidiaries are in default with respect to any indebtedness for borrowed money or money due under any long-term leasing or factoring arrangement.

(z) Tax Status. Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company, Psyence and their respective subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all federal, state, provincial, and local income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on their books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company, Psyence or of any of their respective subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim.

(aa) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company, Psyence nor any Person acting on behalf of the Company or Psyence has offered or sold any of the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only to the Purchaser and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.

(bb) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, Psyence nor any of their respective subsidiaries, nor to the knowledge of the Company, Psyence or any of their respective subsidiaries, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company, Psyence or any of their respective subsidiaries, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, or (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company, Psyence or any of their respective subsidiaries (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law.

ARTICLE IV.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with applicable state, federal, and provincial securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of the Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

(b) The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of legend(s) on any of the Securities (other than the Structuring Shares) in the following forms:

“NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE OR CONVERTIBLE HAS BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

and

“UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER CANADIAN SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE THE DATE THAT IS 4 MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER THE LATER OF (I) [INSERT THE DISTRIBUTION DATE], AND (II) THE DATE THE ISSUER BECAME A REPORTING ISSUER IN ANY PROVINCE OR TERRITORY OF CANADA.”

(c) The Company shall remove, or cause to be removed, any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof) from certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares: (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws. The Company shall request its counsel issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent or the Purchaser promptly if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of any legends hereunder, or if requested by the Purchaser, respectively, without charge to such Purchaser. If all or any portion of a Note is converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Underlying Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if any such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following such time as any such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the DWAC transfer by the Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of the Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the “Legend Removal Date”), remove any legend from the Underlying Share held electronically by the Purchaser; provided that such Purchaser shall have previously delivered to the Company all documents required by the Company’s Transfer Agent and/or counsel to deliver Underlying Shares that are free of restrictive legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4. The Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Purchaser. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend.

(d) In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser, in cash, (i) as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Shares on the date such Securities are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend(s) and subject to Section 4.1(c) or for any Structuring Shares which have not been delivered to the Purchaser within the time frame set forth in Section 2.1(d), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date (or delivery date with respect to the Structuring Shares) until such electronic shares no longer contain any restrictive legend and (ii) if the Company fails to (a) issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date (or the delivery date with respect to the Structuring Shares) the Securities that are free from all restrictive and other legends and (b) if after the Legend Removal Date the Purchaser purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Purchaser of all or any portion of the number of Common Shares, or a sale of a number of Common Shares equal to all or any portion of the number of Common Shares that the Purchaser anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend (including with respect to the Structuring Shares), then, an amount equal to the excess of the Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) (the “Buy-In Price”) over the product of (A) such number of Underlying Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date (or the delivery date with respect to the Structuring Shares) multiplied by (B) the lowest closing sale price of the Common Shares on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by the Purchaser to the Company of the applicable Underlying Shares or Structuring Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii).

(e) The Purchaser agrees with the Company that the Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend(s) from the Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.

4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding Common Shares, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares and Structuring Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against the Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other shareholders of the Company.

4.3 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.4 Conversion Procedures. The form of Notice of Conversion included in the Note sets forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchaser in order to convert the Note. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required in order to convert the Note. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchaser to convert the Note. The Company shall honor conversions of the Note and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.5 Indemnification of the Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.5, the Company will indemnify and hold the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any the Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company or Psyence in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any regulatory agency or stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of the Purchaser Party, with respect to the Transactions or regulatory filings made by the Company in connection therewith (unless such action is solely based upon a material breach of the Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings the Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by the Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by the Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct). If any action shall be brought against the Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of the Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by the Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to the Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.5 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of the Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

4.6 Reservation of Securities. The Company shall maintain a reserve of the Required Minimum from its duly authorized Common Shares for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.

4.7 Disclosure. The Company shall provide to the Purchaser for review prior to filing with the Commission a draft of the Form 8-K disclosing the Purchaser’s purchase of the Securities and a summary of the Transaction Documents, and shall reasonably consult with the Purchaser regarding such disclosure, and such disclosure shall include all material non-public information provided by the Company or its representatives to the Purchaser prior to such date.

4.8 Subsequent Equity Sales. From the date hereof until sixty (60) days after the effective date of a Resale Registration Statement registering all of the Underlying Securities for the First Tranche Note and Second Tranche Note, neither the Company nor any subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of capital stock, capital stock equivalents pursuant to a Variable Rate Transaction or other registered or public offering (each an “Equity Issuance”); provided, however, that in the event that the Purchaser delays investment of the Subscription Amounts with respect to the Second Tranche Note due to the occurrence of an event outlined in Section 2.1(b) hereof, such period shall be extended by 60 days or such earlier date as the deficiency is resolved. Further, any subsequent Equity Issuance completed after that date but prior to the time that the Purchaser no longer holds any Securities shall contain provisions requiring that any equity issued thereunder be locked up until the later of sixty (60) days from the Equity Issuance or the registration of such equity (or qualification by prospectus in Canada); provided, however, that in the event that the Purchaser delays investment of the Subscription Amounts with respect to the Second Tranche Note due to the occurrence of an event outlined in Section 2.1(b) hereof, such period shall be extended by 60 days or such earlier date as the deficiency is resolved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.8 shall not apply in respect of any issuance of securities at the closing of the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, securities that may be issued to third parties in lieu of cash payable at the closing of the Business Combination, provided that any such third parties shall enter into lockup agreements on identical terms to the form of lock-up agreement attached as Exhibit D, or an Exempt Issuance.

4.9 No Hedging. The Purchaser, the Company and Sponsor each hereby agrees (and with respect to Sponsor shall cause each member of Sponsor to agree) that neither it, nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, shall execute any short sales (as such term is defined in Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, 17 CFR 242.200) or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind directly with respect to any Common Shares of the Company during the period from the date of this Agreement through each Closing (or such earlier termination of this Agreement).

4.12 Termination.

(a) If, prior to the Closing, any governmental authority, including the Commission, issues comments with respect to or challenges the enforceability of the Transactions in a manner that the Company believes in its sole discretion could result in a material delay in the Business Combination or material liability to the Company, the Company shall be permitted to immediately terminate the Transaction without liability; provided, however, that in the event of such a termination, the Company shall remain responsible for legal fees incurred in connection with the Transaction pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof and will in good-faith allow the Purchaser to review all comments received that informed the decision to the extent permitted by the governmental authority or applicable law.

(b) If, prior to the Closing, any governmental authority, including the Commission, issues comments with respect to or challenges the enforceability of the Transactions in a manner that the Purchaser believes in its sole discretion could result in material liability to the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall be permitted to immediately terminate the Transactions without liability; provided, that in the event of such termination, the Company shall remain responsible for legal fees incurred in connection with the Transactions pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof and will in good-faith allow the Company to review all comments received that informed the decision to the extent permitted by the governmental authority or applicable law.

27 Psyence Biomedical Ltd. / Healing Minds with Science . Changing Lives with Nature Risk Factors Relating to Psyence’s Business We are a clinical - stage biotechnology company and have incurred significant losses since our inception . We anticipate that we will incur significant losses for the foreseeable future . Psyence has a limited operating history and expects a number of factors to cause its operating results to fluctuate on an annual basis, which may make it difficult to predict the future performance of Psyence . Psyence has never generated revenue and may never be profitable . Even if the Business Combination is consummated, the Combined Company will require substantial additional funding to achieve its business goals, and if it is unable to obtain this funding when needed and on acceptable terms, it could be forced to delay, limit or terminate its product development efforts . We depend on our current key personnel and our ability to attract and retain employees . The psychedelic therapy and biotechnology industries are undergoing rapid growth and substantial change, which has resulted in an increase in competitors, consolidation and formation of strategic relationships . Acquisitions or other consolidating transactions could harm Psyence in a number of ways, including by losing strategic partners if they are acquired by or enter into relationships with a competitor, losing customers, revenue and market share, or forcing Psyence to expend greater resources to meet new or additional competitive threats, all of which could harm Psyence’s operating results . Current and future preclinical and clinical studies will be conducted outside the United States, and the FDA may not accept data from such studies to support any NDAs submitted after completing the applicable developmental and regulatory prerequisites (absent an IND) . There is a high rate of failure for product candidates proceeding through clinical trials . Because the results of preclinical studies and earlier clinical trials are not necessarily predictive of future results, Psyence may not have favorable results in its planned and future clinical trials . Negative results from clinical trials or studies of others and adverse safety events involving Psyence’s psychedelic analogs could have a material adverse effect on Psyence’s business . Costs associated with compliance with numerous laws and regulations could impact our financial results . In addition, we could become subject to increased enforcement and/or litigation risks associated with the psychedelic therapeutics industry . We are dependent on licensed intellectual property . If we were to lose our rights to licensed intellectual property, we may not be able to continue developing or commercializing our product candidates, if approved . If we breach any of the agreements under which we license the use, development and commercialization rights to our product candidates or technology from third parties or, in certain cases, we fail to meet certain development deadlines, we could lose license rights that are important to our business . Our prospective products will be subject to the various federal and state laws and regulations relating to health and safety and failure to comply with, or changes in, these laws or regulations could have an adverse impact on our business . If we fail to comply with healthcare regulations, we could face substantial enforcement actions, including civil and criminal penalties and our business, operations and financial condition could be adversely affected . Clinical trials are expensive, time - consuming, uncertain and susceptible to change, delay or termination . The results of clinical trials are open to differing interpretations . Psyence may be subject to federal, state and foreign healthcare laws and regulations and implementation of or changes to such healthcare laws and regulations could adversely affect Psyence’s business and results of operations . Psyence may voluntarily suspend or terminate a clinical trial if at any time its believes that any of its product candidates presents an unacceptable risk to participants, if preliminary data demonstrates that the product candidate is unlikely to receive regulatory approval or unlikely to be successfully commercialized, or if sufficient funds to proceed to the next phases of clinical trials are not raised . The psychedelic therapy industry and market are relatively new, and this industry and market may not continue to exist or grow as anticipated . Negative public opinion and perception of the psychedelic industry could adversely impact Psyence’s ability to operate and Psyence’s growth strategy . The expansion of the use of psychedelics in the medical industry may require new clinical research into effective medical therapies . The psychedelic therapy industry is difficult to quantify and investors will be reliant on their own estimates of the accuracy of market data . Psyence may not be able to adequately protect or enforce its intellectual property rights, which could harm its competitive position . If third parties claim that intellectual property owned or used by Psyence infringes upon their intellectual property, Psyence’s operating profits could be adversely affected . If Psyence is not able to adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information, the value of its products could be significantly diminished . The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions to closing including among others : obtaining Newcourt shareholder approval, Psyence Biomed, and, if necessary, Psyence shareholder approval of the Business Combination ; the completion of regulatory review from the SEC and the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) ; the filing effectiveness of the Registration Statement ; obtaining required consents or approvals ; and the resignation of certain Newcourt's directors and officers . The obligations of each of Newcourt and Psyence to consummate the Business Combination are also conditioned on, among other things, the accuracy of the representations and warranties as set forth by the other parties in the Business Combination Agreement (subject to certain materiality qualifications) and the performance by the other parties, in all material respects, of their obligations under the Business Combination Agreement required to be performed at or prior to the closing . In addition, consummation of the Business Combination is subject to the parties being satisfied with their due diligence of the other parties, any conditions that the CSE may impose, including, if required, Psyence shareholder approval, and is also predicated on the parties settling and executing a number of ancillary agreements, including an amended and restated Newcourt shareholder rights agreement, lock - up agreements with Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC (the "Sponsor"), a support agreement with the Sponsor, and a support agreement with Psyence Group Inc . Risk Factors Relating to the Proposed Transaction The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions to closing including among others : obtaining Newcourt shareholder approval, Psyence Biomed, and, if necessary, Psyence shareholder approval of the Business Combination ; the completion of regulatory review from the SEC and the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) ; the filing effectiveness of the Registration Statement ; obtaining required consents or approvals ; and the resignation of certain Newcourt's directors and officers . The obligations of each of Newcourt and Psyence to consummate the Business Combination are also conditioned on, among other things, the accuracy of the representations and warranties as set forth by the other parties in the Business Combination Agreement (subject to certain materiality qualifications) and the performance by the other parties, in all material respects, of their obligations under the Business Combination Agreement required to be performed at or prior to the closing .
