NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the 2023 annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of the shareholders of the common shares (“Common Shares”) of TILT Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “TILT”) will be held on Tuesday, June 6, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time)/1:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time). The Meeting is being held in a virtual-only format in order to provide all of our shareholders with an equal opportunity to participate in the Meeting, regardless of their geographic location.

Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders will be able to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023. Beneficial shareholders (those shareholders who hold their Common Shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank, trust corporation, custodian, nominee or other intermediary) who have not duly appointed themselves as proxyholders will be able to attend as guests and view the webcast, but will not be able to participate in, or vote at, the Meeting.

The Meeting and any or all adjournments thereof will be held for the following purposes:

to receive and consider the audited consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2022;

to set the number of directors at five;

to elect five directors of the Company to hold office until their successors are elected at the next annual general meeting of the Company;

to re-appoint Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP (“MGO”) as the auditors of the Company for the ensuing year and to authorize the directors of the Company to fix the remuneration to be paid to the auditors; and

to transact such further or other business as may properly come before the Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

This Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is accompanied by the proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) and the accompanying form of proxy. As permitted by applicable securities law, the Company is using notice-and-access to deliver the Proxy Statement to shareholders. This means that the Proxy Statement is being posted online to access, rather than being mailed to individual shareholders. Notice-and-access substantially reduces the Company’s printing and mailing costs and is environmentally friendly as it reduces paper and energy consumption. The Proxy Statement and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 are available on the “Investors” section of the Company’s website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) website at www.sec.gov and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof is April 11, 2023 (the “Record Date”). On or about April 27, 2023, we will mail our shareholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials and vote online. The notice also provides instructions on how you can request proxy materials be sent to you by mail or email and how you can enroll to receive proxy materials by mail or email for future meetings.

It is desirable that as many Common Shares as possible be represented at the Meeting. Shareholders may vote virtually at the Meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof, or they may appoint another person (who need not be a shareholder) or the Company as their proxy to attend and vote in their place.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, we encourage you to read this Proxy Statement and promptly vote your Common Shares. For specific instructions on how to vote your Common Shares, please refer to the section entitled “How You Can Vote” and to the instructions on your proxy or voting instruction card.

DATED this 27th day of April, 2023

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

(the “Company”) for use at the 2023 annual general meeting (the “Meeting”) of shareholders of common shares of the Company (“Common Shares”) to be held at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time)/1:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on Tuesday, June 6, 2023 via live webcast at: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023 for the purposes set forth in the notice of the Meeting (the “Notice of Meeting”). Our Board is using this Proxy Statement to solicit proxies for use at the Meeting. This Proxy Statement is dated April 27, 2023 and is first made available to shareholders on or about April 27, 2023.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”), as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and on SEDAR on March 16, 2023, has been made available to all shareholders for viewing, printing and downloading at www.tiltholdings.com/investors.

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our most recently completed fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012.

These provisions include:

•

reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

•

exemptions from non-binding shareholder advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and

•

exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more; (ii) the last day of the year following the fifth anniversary of the first sale of the common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND VOTING

Proxy Materials

Why am I receiving these materials?

The Board is using this Proxy Statement to solicit proxies for use at the Meeting to be held via live webcast on June 6, 2023. As a shareholder, you are invited to attend the Meeting and are entitled and requested to vote on the business items described in this Proxy Statement. This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board. This Proxy Statement is designed to assist you in voting your Common Shares and includes information that we are required to provide under the rules of the SEC and applicable Canadian securities laws.

The following proxy materials are being posted online to access in most instances, rather than being mailed out: (i) Proxy Statement and (ii) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (including the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, together with the notes thereto, and the independent auditor’s report thereon and the related management’s discussion and analysis). As permitted by applicable U.S. securities laws, the Company is using notice-and-access to deliver the proxy materials to shareholders.

These proxy materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered shareholders. In some instances, the Company has distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, the Proxy Statement, the accompanying form of proxy and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (collectively, the “Proxy Materials”) to clearing agencies, securities dealers, banks and trust companies, or their nominees (collectively “Intermediaries”, and each an “Intermediary”) for onward distribution to shareholders whose shares are held by or in the custody of those Intermediaries (“Non-registered Shareholders”). The Intermediaries are required to forward the Proxy Materials to Non-registered Shareholders.

In accordance with applicable laws, Non-registered Shareholders who have advised their Intermediary that they do not object to the Intermediary providing their ownership information to issuers whose securities they beneficially own (“NOBOs”) will receive by mail a letter with respect to the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. NOBOs who have standing instructions with the Intermediary for physical copies of this Proxy Statement will receive by mail the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, the Notice of Meeting and the Proxy Statement.

Management of the Company intends to pay for Intermediaries to forward the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to Non-registered Shareholders who have advised their Intermediary that they object to the Intermediary providing their ownership information.

Solicitation of proxies from Non-registered Shareholders will be carried out by Intermediaries, or by the Company if the names and addresses of Non-registered Shareholders are provided by the Intermediaries.

Non-registered Shareholders who have received the Proxy Materials from their Intermediary should follow the directions of their Intermediary with respect to the procedure to be followed for voting at the Meeting. Generally, Non-registered Shareholders will either:

•

receive a form of proxy executed by the Intermediary but otherwise uncompleted. The Non-registered Shareholder may complete the proxy and return it directly to Broadridge; or

•

be provided with a request for voting instructions. The Intermediary is required to send the Company an executed form of proxy completed in accordance with any voting instructions received by the Intermediary.

If you are a Non-registered Shareholder and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of Common Shares have been obtained from your Intermediary in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements. By choosing to send the Proxy Materials to you directly, the Company (and not your Intermediary) has assumed responsibility for: (i) delivering the Proxy Materials to you and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Non-registered Shareholders who have elected to receive the Proxy Materials by electronic delivery will have received e-mail

TABLE OF CONTENTS

notification from the Intermediary that the Proxy Materials are available electronically on www.proxyvote.com. Please return your voting instructions as specified in the request for voting instructions.

Who pays the cost of soliciting proxies for the Meeting?

The Company will bear the cost of solicitation, including the cost of preparing, printing and mailing the materials in connection with the solicitation of proxies. This solicitation of proxies is being made to shareholders electronically or by mail but may be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact. The Company’s officers and employees, on behalf of the Company without being additionally compensated, may solicit proxies personally and by mail, telephone, or electronic communication at nominal cost to the Company.

The Company will reimburse Intermediaries for forwarding Proxy Materials to Non-registered Shareholders.

What is included in the Proxy Materials?

What information is contained in this Proxy Statement?

The information in this Proxy Statement relates to the proposals to be voted on at the Meeting and information regarding the voting process, our Board and Board committees, corporate governance, and the compensation of our directors and executive officers as well as other required information.

I share an address with another shareholder, and we received only one paper copy of the Proxy Materials. How may I obtain an additional copy?

If you share an address with another shareholder, you may receive only one set of Proxy Materials unless you have provided contrary instructions.

What vote is required to approve each item?

The Articles of the Company (“Articles”) provide that a quorum of shareholders is present at the Meeting if at least two shareholders holding a minimum of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company are present in person or represented by proxy.

3. Re-Appointment and Remuneration of Auditors			Majority of the votes cast at the Meeting voting FOR the proposal. For the purposes of determining the number of votes cast, only “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” votes are counted.

The Board adopted a “majority voting” policy as described in Proposal No. 2 under “Majority Voting Policy”.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

How are abstentions counted?

Common Shares held or represented by proxy by persons present at the Meeting in respect of which the holder or proxy holder does not vote, or abstains from voting, with respect to any proposal are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum. However, abstentions are not treated as votes cast and will not affect the outcome of the vote of any proposal contained in the Proxy Statement.

What happens if additional items are presented at the Meeting?

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, management of the Company knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. However, if other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card to vote such proxy according to their best judgment.

Where can I find the voting results?

We expect to announce preliminary voting results at the Meeting and to publish final results in a current report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days of the Meeting and in a press release and report of voting results that we will file in Canada on SEDAR promptly following the Meeting. Both the Form 8-K and press release will also be available on the “Investors” section of our website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors.

How You Can Vote

What shares can I vote?

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of compressed shares in the capital of the Company (“Compressed Shares”). The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof is April 11, 2023 (the “Record Date”). As of the Record Date, there are 334,064,756 Common Shares and no Compressed Shares issued and outstanding. Each Common Share carries the right to one vote on any matter properly coming before the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Each Compressed Share carries the right to one hundred votes on any matter properly coming before the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

AS DETAILED FURTHER BELOW, REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPOINT A PERSON TO REPRESENT HIM, HER OR IT AT THE MEETING OTHER THAN THE PERSON(S) DESIGNATED IN THE PROXY CARD either by striking out the names of the persons designated in the proxy card and by inserting the name of the person to be appointed in the space provided in the proxy card or by completing another proper form of proxy and, in either case, delivering the completed proxy to Broadridge by mail using the enclosed return envelope to: Vote Processing c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. Alternatively, you may vote by Internet at www.proxyvote.com or by calling 1-800-690-6903.

What is the difference between holding Common Shares as a shareholder of record (or Registered Shareholder) and as a beneficial owner (or Non-registered Shareholder)?

Most of our shareholders hold their Common Shares through Intermediaries rather than having the shares registered directly in their own name. Summarized below are some distinctions between Common Shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Shareholder of Record (Registered Shareholder)

If your Common Shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Odyssey Trust Corporation, you are the Registered Shareholder of the Common Shares. As the Registered Shareholder, you have the right to grant a proxy to vote your Common Shares to representatives from the Company or to another person, or to vote your Common Shares at the Meeting. Shareholders of record will receive paper

TABLE OF CONTENTS

copies of a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access and review the Proxy Materials as well as directions on how to vote by proxy.

Beneficial Owner (Non-registered Shareholder)

If your Common Shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, it is likely that they are registered in the name of the nominee and you are the beneficial owner of Common Shares held in street name.

As the beneficial owner of Common Shares held for your account, you have the right to direct the registered holder to vote your Common Shares as you instruct, and you also are invited to attend the Meeting. Your bank, broker, plan trustee or other nominee has provided a voting instruction card, or otherwise provided voting instructions, for you to use in directing how your Common Shares are to be voted.

How can I vote at the Meeting?

The Meeting will be held virtually to allow greater participation. Even if you plan to attend the Meeting virtually, we recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions as described below, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend.

Shareholders may participate virtually in the Meeting by visiting the following website: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023. To participate in the Meeting virtually, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, on your form of proxy or on the instructions that accompanied your Proxy Materials. Common Shares held in your name as the Registered Shareholder may be voted electronically during the Meeting. Common Shares for which you are the beneficial owner may be voted electronically during the Meeting if you hold a valid proxy to vote at the Meeting.

How can I vote without attending the Meeting virtually?

Whether you hold your Common Shares as a Registered Shareholder or as a beneficial owner, you may direct how your shares are to be voted without attending the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof. For directions on how to vote, please refer to the following instructions and those included on your proxy or voting instruction card. A proxy form will not be valid unless completed and deposited in accordance with the instructions set out in the proxy form.

If you are a Registered Shareholder, you may vote by submitting a proxy. You may vote over the internet at www.proxyvote.com, by phone at 1-800-690-6903 or by mail by signing, dating and returning the proxy card to Attention: to Vote Processing c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717.

If you are a Non-registered Shareholder, you may vote by submitting voting instructions to the registered owner of your Common Shares in accordance with the instructions on your voting instruction card.

The persons named in the proxy card, John Barravecchia and Tim Conder are directors and/or officers of the Company. As a shareholder submitting a proxy you have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a shareholder) to represent you at the Meeting other than the person or persons designated in the proxy card furnished by the Company. Such right may be exercised either by striking out the names of the persons specified in the form of proxy and inserting the name of the person to be appointed in the blank space provided in the form of proxy, or by completing another proper form of proxy and, in either case, delivering the completed and executed proxy to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, no later than 10.00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on June 2, 2023 or, if the Meeting is adjourned, at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of British Columbia) before the beginning of any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) to the Meeting.

The proxyholder does not need to be a shareholder, but the proxyholder does need to understand that the Registered Shareholder’s vote will not be counted unless the proxyholder attends the Meeting and votes the Registered Shareholder’s shares.

If you are a Non-registered Shareholder and wish to appoint someone else as your proxyholder, including yourself, to participate in the Meeting, including asking questions and voting, please follow the instructions in the voting instruction form or contact your Intermediary for instructions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If I have appointed a proxyholder, how can the person participate in and vote at the Meeting?

If you are a Registered Shareholder and have appointed someone other than the Board’s nominees as your proxyholder, the person you have appointed as your proxyholder must obtain a 16-digit control number to participate in the Meeting as your proxy and vote your Common Shares. It is the responsibility of the shareholder to advise his or her proxyholder to contact the appropriate party to obtain a 16-digit control number. Without the 16-digit control number, proxyholders will not be able to participate in the Meeting, including asking questions and voting. Requests for a 16-digit control number must be made by 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on June 2, 2023.

What will I need to attend the Meeting virtually?

If you were a Registered Shareholder as of the close of business on April 11, 2023, or you hold a valid proxy for the Meeting, you may attend the Meeting, vote, and submit a question during the Meeting, by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023 and using your 16-digit control number to enter the Meeting.

If you are not a Registered Shareholder but hold Common Shares as a beneficial owner in street name (a Non-registered Shareholder), you may join the Meeting by obtaining a proxy from the owner of record and their 16-digit control number, or you may join the Meeting as a guest.

Will I be able to attend the Meeting virtually without a 16-digit control number?

Yes, you may register to attend the Meeting as a guest, but you will not be able to submit questions or comments and will not be able to vote at the Meeting without your 16-digit control number.

What if during the check-in period or during the Meeting I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting website?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the Meeting during check-in or during the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Meeting login page www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023.

How do I submit questions or comments for the Meeting?

Registered Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders who wish to submit questions or comments may do so during the Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLLTF2023. Instructions will be available on the Meeting site and technical assistance will be available.

How will my Common Shares be voted?

Common Shares represented by properly executed proxies in favor of persons designated in the printed portion of the enclosed proxy card WILL, UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, BE VOTED FOR THE SETTING OF THE BOARD AT FIVE (PROPOSAL NO. 1), FOR THE ELECTION OF THE LISTED NOMINEES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (PROPOSAL NO. 2) AND FOR THE RE-APPOINTMENT AND REMUNERATION OF THE AUDITORS (PROPOSAL NO. 3). The Common Shares represented by the proxy card will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder on any ballot that may be called for and, if the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Common Shares will be voted accordingly. The enclosed proxy card confers discretionary authority on the persons named therein with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting or other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, management of the Company knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. However, if other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card to vote such proxy according to their best judgment.

Will shares I hold in my brokerage account be voted if I do not provide timely voting instructions?

If your Common Shares are held through a brokerage firm, they will be voted as you instruct on the voting instruction card provided by your broker. If you sign and return your card without giving specific instructions, your Common Shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If you do not return your voting instruction card on a timely basis, Canadian brokers are prohibited from voting your Common Shares.

If you do not return your voting instruction card on a timely basis, U.S. brokers, as the holders of record, are permitted to vote your Common Shares on “routine” matters only, but not on other matters. As a result, your U.S. broker will have the authority to vote your brokerage Common Shares only on the proposal to re-appoint our auditors and approve their remuneration (Proposal No. 3). Your U.S. broker will be prohibited from voting your Common Shares without your instructions on the setting of the number of directors at five (Proposal No. 1) and the election of directors (Proposal No. 2) and on any other non-routine proposal. If you do not provide voting instructions to your U.S. broker on Proposal No. 1 and Proposal No. 2, your U.S. broker may not vote your Common Shares on those proposals resulting in a “broker non-vote”. These “broker non-votes” will be counted only for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Meeting and will not count for purposes of determining the number of votes cast on Proposal No. 1 and Proposal No. 2. Such broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of these proposals.

Will Common Shares that I own as a shareholder of record (Registered Shareholder) be voted if I do not timely return my form of proxy?

Common Shares that you own as a Registered Shareholder will be voted as you instruct on your form of proxy. If you sign and return your form of proxy without giving specific instructions, they will be voted in accordance with the procedure set out above under the heading “How will my shares be voted?”.

If you do not timely return your form of proxy, your Common Shares will not be voted unless you or your proxy holder attends the Meeting and any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof and votes during the Meeting as described above under the heading “How can I vote at the Meeting?”.

When is the deadline to vote?

If you hold Common Shares as the Registered Shareholder, your vote by proxy must be received before 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on June 2, 2023 or, if the Meeting is adjourned, at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of British Columbia) before any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) of the Meeting.

If you hold Common Shares as a beneficial owner, please follow the voting instructions provided by your bank, broker or other nominee.

May I change or revoke my vote?

If you are a Registered Shareholder, you may change your vote by: (i) providing a written notice of revocation to Broadridge by mail using the enclosed envelope to Attention: Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717 provided that such notice is received by 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on June 2, 2023 or, if the Meeting is adjourned, at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays in the Province of British Columbia) before the beginning of any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) to the Meeting; (ii) by attending the online Meeting and voting; (iii) by granting a subsequent proxy; or (iv) in any other manner provided by law. To be effective, the subsequent proxy must be deposited before the time specified above under the heading “When is the deadline to vote?” for the deposit of proxies. If you have followed the process for attending and voting at the Meeting online, voting at the Meeting online will revoke your previous proxy. For Common Shares you hold as a beneficial owner, you may change your vote by timely submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee (which revokes your earlier instructions), or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from the nominee giving you the right to vote your Common Shares, by attending the online Meeting and voting.

Shareholder Proposals and Director Nominations

What is the deadline to submit shareholder proposals to be included in the proxy materials for next year’s annual meeting?

The Company is subject to the rules of both the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”)

TABLE OF CONTENTS

with respect to shareholder proposals. As clearly indicated under the BCBCA and SEC rules under the Exchange Act, simply submitting a shareholder proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the proxy materials.

Shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to SEC rules under the Exchange Act for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for next year’s annual general meeting must be submitted to and received by the Company by no later than the close of business (Pacific Time) on December 29, 2023, the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the date which this Proxy Statement was first released to our shareholders in connection with this year’s Meeting. Such proposals must also comply with all applicable provisions of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. If the Company changes the date of next year’s annual meeting by more than 30 days from the anniversary of this year’s Meeting, shareholder proposals must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail the proxy materials for next year’s annual meeting in order to be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials.

The BCBCA also sets out the requirements for a valid proposal and provides for the rights and obligations of the Company and the submitter upon a valid proposal being made. A person wishing to submit a proposal must have been, for at least a 2-year uninterrupted period immediately prior to the date of signing of the proposal, the registered holder or the beneficial owner of either: (i) 1% of the outstanding shares or (ii) $2,000 worth of such shares (in each case, calculated as of time of signing of the proposal). If the submitting shareholder does not meet minimum shareholdings requirements, the shareholder must have support of one or more other shareholders who do meet such requirements. Proposals submitted under the applicable provisions of the BCBCA that a shareholder intends to present at next year’s annual meeting and wishes to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to next year’s annual meeting must be received at least three months before the anniversary of the Company’s last annual meeting or March 6, 2024.

Shareholders must submit written proposals, in accordance with the foregoing procedures, to the following address:

TILT Holdings Inc.
2801 E Camelback Road
Suite 180
Phoenix, AZ 85016
Attention: Deputy General Counsel

Proposals that are not timely submitted or are submitted to the incorrect address may, at our discretion, be excluded from our proxy materials. Proposals must comply with all applicable provisions of the BCBCA and the regulations thereunder.

How may I nominate director candidates or present other business for consideration at a meeting?

Shareholders who wish to (i) submit director nominees for consideration or (ii) present other items of business directly at next year’s annual meeting must give written notice of their intention to do so, in accordance with the deadlines described below, to our Deputy General Counsel at the address set forth under the heading “What is the deadline to submit shareholder proposals to be included in the proxy materials for next year’s annual meeting?”. Any such notice also must include the information required by our Articles (which may be obtained as provided below under the heading “Obtaining Additional Information”), and must be updated and supplemented as provided in the Articles.

Under the Articles, a shareholder (a “Nominating Shareholder”) may nominate persons for election to the Board at any annual meeting of shareholders if such shareholder provides notice (“Nominating Notice”) to the Company not less than 30 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the “Notice Date”) on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting is made, the Nominating Notice is made not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the Notice Date. In the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), a Nominating Shareholder may nominate persons for election to the Board if such shareholder provides the Nominating Notice to the

In addition, to comply with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees for election at next year’s annual meeting other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19, which notice must be postmarked or transmitted electronically to the Company at its principal executive offices no later than 60 calendar days prior to the first anniversary of the Meeting or April 7, 2024.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The material in this report is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing by TILT Holdings Inc. under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities for oversight of financial, audit and accounting matters. The Audit Committee reviews the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to regulatory authorities and its shareholders, as well as reviews the Company’s system of internal controls regarding finance and accounting, including auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and MGO to review and discuss the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Audit Committee has also discussed with MGO, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed under applicable auditing standards, including Auditing Standard No. 1301 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with MGO its independence, and received from MGO the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB. Finally, the Audit Committee discussed with MGO, with and without management present, the scope and results of MGO’s audit of such financial statements.

Based on the Audit Committee’s discussions with management, review of MGO’s letter and discussions with MGO, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (“NI 58-101”) sets out a series of guidelines for effective corporate governance of Canadian companies. The guidelines address matters such as the composition and independence of corporate boards, the functions to be performed by boards and their committees, and the effectiveness and education of board members.

In establishing its corporate governance practices, the Board has been guided by applicable Canadian securities legislation, including National Policy 58-101 — Corporate Governance Guidelines and the guidelines of the NEO Exchange (the “NEO Exchange”) for effective corporate governance. The Board is committed to a high standard of corporate governance practices. The Board believes that this commitment is not only in the best interests of its shareholders, but that it also promotes effective decision making at the Board level.

Role of Board of Directors

The Board is responsible for general oversight of the Company’s business and affairs and is actively involved in the Company’s strategic planning process. The Board discusses and reviews all materials relating to strategic and operating plans with management and is responsible for reviewing and approving strategic and operating plans and budgets. Management must seek the Board’s approval for any transaction that would have a significant impact on the strategic plan. The Board approves all significant decisions that affect the Company before they are implemented and the Board supervises their implementation and reviews the results.

The Board is also responsible for selecting the chief executive officer of the Company (the “CEO”), appointing senior management and for monitoring their performance. The Board delegates to management responsibility for, among other things, meeting defined corporate objectives, implementing approved strategic and operating plans, carrying on the Company’s business, evaluating new business opportunities and complying with applicable regulatory requirements.

The Board periodically reviews the Company’s business and implementation of appropriate systems to manage any associated risks, communications with investors and the financial community and the integrity of the Company’s internal control and management information systems.

The Board also monitors the Company’s compliance with its timely disclosure obligations and reviews material disclosure documents prior to distribution. The Board discharges its responsibilities directly and through three committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

The Board is currently comprised of five directors and it is proposed that five directors will be nominated at the Meeting. The Board is of the view that its proposed size permits a diversity of experience and knowledge and is the appropriate size to foster and promote effective participation, decision making and oversight.

Term Limits

Our Board has not adopted director term limits or other automatic mechanisms of board renewal. Rather than adopting formal term limits, mandatory age-related retirement policies and other mechanisms of board renewal, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks to maintain the composition of the Board in a way that provides, in the judgement of the Board, the best mix of skills and experience to provide for the Company’s overall stewardship and success. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also is expected to conduct a process for the assessment of the Board, each committee and each director regarding his, her or its effectiveness and performance, and to report evaluation results to the Board.

Board of Directors Mandate

Our Board is responsible for the stewardship of the Company and providing oversight as to the management of our business and affairs, including providing guidance and strategic oversight to management. Our Board has a formal mandate that provides that the primary responsibilities of the Board are as follows, among other things:

•

to maximize long term shareholder value;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

to approve the strategic plan of the Company;

•

to ensure that processes, controls and systems are in place for the management of the business and affairs of the Company and to address applicable legal and regulatory compliance matters;

•

to maintain the composition of the Board in a way that provides an effective mix of skills and experience to provide for the overall stewardship of the Company;

•

to ensure that the Company meets its obligations on an ongoing basis and operates in a safe and reliable manner; and

•

to monitor the performance of the management of the Company to ensure that it meets its duties and responsibilities to the shareholders.

Pursuant to applicable Canadian laws, the text of the Board’s mandate is set out in Appendix “A” to this Proxy Statement and posted on the Company’s website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors.

Other Directorships

None of the Company’s directors are or have been within the past five years directors of other reporting issuers (or the equivalent) in a jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction.

Director Independence

NEO Exchange Independence

Under the NEO Exchange listing manual, an “independent director” means a director who is independent in accordance with section 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110 — Audit Committees (“NI 52‑110”) or its successor provision. A listed issuer on the NEO Exchange must have a board of directors that consists of (i) at least two independent directors or (ii) where the board consists of six or more members, at least one-third independent directors. The Board is currently composed of four “independent directors” as defined under the NEO Exchange Listing Manual.

Under such definition, John Barravcecchia, Adam Draizin, George Odden and D’Angela Simms are each an independent director, and Mark Coleman and Jane Mathieu, who served as directors in 2022, were independent directors. Tim Conder is not independent as he is a current executive officer of the Company.

Nasdaq Independence

Although the Common Shares are not listed on any U.S. national securities exchange, the Company also determines independence using the definition of “independent director” under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq Rules”) as required by SEC rules. The Board is composed of four “independent directors” as defined under the Nasdaq Rules. In particular, Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Nasdaq Rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:

•

the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the Company;

•

the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the Company in excess of $120,000 during any period of twelve consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exemptions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);

•

the director is a family member of an individual who is or at any time during the past three years was, employed by the Company as an executive officer;

•

the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling shareholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments for properties or services in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceeds 5%

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exemptions, including, among other things, payments arising solely from investments in the Company’s securities );

•

the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or

•

the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the Company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the Company’s audit.

Under such definition, Adam Draizin, George Odden, John Barravecchia and D’Angela Simms are each an independent director and Mark Coleman and Jane Mathieu, who served as directors in 2022, were independent directors. Tim Conder is not independent as he is a current executive officer of the Company.

Director Attendance

Board members are expected to attend all Board meetings and meetings of Board committees on which they serve. The Board held 12 meetings in 2022. In 2022, each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of our Board and any committee on which he or she served. All of the directors then serving attended the 2022 annual general meeting of the shareholders.

Independent directors do not hold regularly scheduled meetings at which non-independent directors and members of management are not in attendance. Our Board believes that given its size and structure, it is able to facilitate independent judgment in carrying out its responsibilities and will continue to do so. To enhance such independent judgment, the independent directors of our Board may meet in the absence of senior executive officers or any non-independent directors, and the Board encourages its independent directors to seek the advice of financial, legal or other consultants when necessary.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board does not have a policy on whether or not the role of the CEO and Chair of the Board should be separate or, if it is to be separate, whether the Chair of the Board should be selected from the non-employee directors or be an employee. Since 2021, the Company’s governance structure has been led by a separate CEO and Chair of the Board. The Board believes that an effective board leadership structure is highly dependent on the experience, skills and personal interaction between persons in leadership roles. Currently, we operate with John Barravecchia serving as our Chair of the Board and Tim Conder serving as our Interim CEO. The Board believes that these complementary roles provide the appropriate governance structure for the Company at this time. Because the Chair of the Board is independent, the Board has not appointed a lead independent director.

Orientation and Continuing Education

The Company does not currently have any formal orientation and education programs for new directors. However, the Board briefs all new directors on the corporate policies of the Company and other relevant corporate and business information. Directors are free to contact the CEO, President and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) at any time to discuss any aspect of the Company’s business.

Risk Oversight

The Board is responsible for identifying the principal risks of the Company’s business and reviewing the risk management systems implemented by management to effectively monitor and manage such risks. The Board does not have a standing risk management committee and instead administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. The Board fulfills its oversight role directly and through the operations of its various committees, including the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board receives periodic reports on each committee’s activities. The Audit Committee has responsibility for risk oversight in connection with its review of our

TABLE OF CONTENTS

financial reports filed with the SEC and on SEDAR. The Audit Committee receives reports from our CFO and our independent auditors in connection with the review of our quarterly and annual financial statements regarding significant financial transactions, accounting and reporting matters, critical accounting estimates and management’s exercise of judgment in accounting matters. When reporting on such matters, our independent auditors also provide their assessment of management’s report and conclusions.

Shareholder Communications

Shareholders may communicate with the Board by writing to the Company’s Vice President, Investor Relations and Communications at 2801 E. Camelback Road #180 Phoenix, Arizona 85016. Communications intended for a specific director or directors should be addressed to their attention to the Company’s Vice President, Investor Relations and Communications at the address provided above. Communications received are forwarded directly to Board members. Communications which are illegal, unduly hostile or threatening, or similarly inappropriate will be disregarded.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

subject to the director independence requirements of any U.S. national securities exchange, as required by SEC rules, Mr. Barravecchia, Mr. Odden and Mr. Draizin also have been determined to be independent pursuant to Rule 5605(c)(2)(A) of the Nasdaq Rules applicable to Audit Committee members. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and possesses extensive financial knowledge, experience and comprehension of financial statements.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to evaluating human resources policies, performing annual performance reviews and evaluating executive compensation arrangements. The Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board with respect to proposals regarding designing and administering the Company’s executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee’s responsibilities are set forth in the Mandate of the Compensation Committee.

The current members of the Compensation Committee include the following directors: John Barravecchia, D’Angela Simms and George Odden. The Board has not yet elected a Chair of the Compensation Committee.

Each member of the Compensation Committee has relevant experience relevant to compensation policy and/or oversight that, combined with their independence, suitably equip them to serve on the Compensation Committee. Their financial knowledge also allows them to assess the costs and benefits of compensation plans. The collective experience of the members ensures that the Compensation Committee has a deep understanding of our business, which is important when determining the appropriate metrics for measuring success.

The Board has adopted a written mandate of the Compensation Committee, which is posted on the Company’s website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors. Pursuant to its mandate, the Compensation Committee is responsible for certain activities including, among others, to:

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board was established for the purpose of assisting the Board in fulfilling its corporate governance responsibilities under applicable law and is responsible

TABLE OF CONTENTS

for reviewing and assessing the effectiveness of the Board, evaluating the Board and its directors and making policy recommendations aimed at enhancing Board effectiveness. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is a committee established for the purpose of developing the Company’s approach to corporate governance matters and reviewing and recommending the size and composition of the Board.

To encourage an objective nominating process when considering potential Board nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into account a number of factors, which may include, among others, the current composition of the Board, the ability of the individual candidate to contribute on an overall basis, the ability of the individual to contribute sufficient time and resources to the Board, the current and future needs of the Company, the composition of the Board and the degree of diversity (including gender) among the directors, the individual’s direct experience with public companies in general, as well as the ability of the candidate’s skills, experience and other qualities to complement those of existing members of the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee currently consists of Tim Conder, D’Angela Simms and Adam Draizin. The Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is Ms. Simms. Mr. Draizin and Ms. Simms have been determined to be independent pursuant to section 1.2 of NI 58-101.

The Board adopted a written mandate of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee which is posted on the Company’s website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors. Pursuant to its mandate, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for certain activities including, among others, to:

•

review on an ongoing basis the effectiveness of the Board and its committees in fulfilling the Board’s mandate;

•

develop and periodically review the Company’s approach to corporate governance matters;

•

determine and recommend to the Board the appropriate size of the Board, its composition of members between independent directors and non-independent directors and minimum holdings of securities for each director;

•

undertake a periodic performance review and evaluation of the Chair of the Board and each individual director, committee chair, committee and member of senior management;

•

seek new members for the Board from time to time and consider and recommend to the Board the annual nomination of directors for election by shareholders;

•

annually review and recommend to the Board the appointments to each committee of the Board and any changes to the terms of reference of the committees;

•

establish a process for direct communications with securityholders and other stakeholders, including through the Company’s Whistleblowing Policy;

conduct a periodic review of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and ethics and recommend to the Board any necessary or appropriate changes; and

•

periodically evaluate the adequacy of the Compensation Committee’s mandate.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider all qualified director candidates identified by various sources, including members of the Board, management and shareholders. Director candidates recommended by shareholders will be given the same consideration as those identified from other sources. Any shareholder who wishes to recommend a candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as a nominee for director should follow the procedures described under the heading “How may I nominate director candidates for consideration at a meeting?” in this Proxy Statement. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing each candidate’s biographical information and assessing each candidate’s independence, skills and expertise.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Diversity

The Company believes that having a diverse Board can offer a breadth and depth of perspectives that enhance the Board’s performance. The Company values diversity of abilities, experience, perspective, education, gender, background, race and national origin. Recommendations concerning director nominees are based on merit and past performance as well as expected contribution to the Board’s performance and, accordingly, diversity is taken into consideration. For the same reason, the Company has not set representation targets. Currently, one of the five members on the Board, or 20%, is a woman.

The Company has recruited and selected senior management candidates that represent a diversity of business understanding, personal attributes, abilities and experience. Currently, no members of senior management are women.

While the Company does not currently have a specific mandate for the representation and nomination of women on the Board or senior management, it is a priority. The Company continues to believe diversity is a priority in both governance and within the organization and strives to become an industry leader in supporting inclusion and diversity.

The composition of the Board and senior management is shaped by the selection criteria established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. This is achieved by, among other things, ensuring that diversity considerations are taken into account in Board vacancies and senior management, monitoring the level of women representation on the Board and in senior management positions, continuing to broaden recruiting efforts to attract and interview qualified women candidates, and committing to retention and training to ensure that the most talented employees are promoted from within the organization.

Orientation and Continuing Education

The Company does not currently have any formal orientation and education programs for new directors. However, the Board briefs all new directors on the corporate policies of the Company and other relevant corporate and business information. Directors are free to contact the CEO, President and the Chief Financial Officer at any time to discuss any aspect of the Company’s business.

Code of Ethics

The Company has a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Business Conduct and Ethics”) setting out the standards of conduct expected from all directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers matters including, but not limited to: accounting requirements, conflicts of interest, confidentiality and integrity of information, use of the Company’s property, entertainment, gifts and favours, recoupment of incentive compensation, improper payments, social media, environment and safety, professional development, non-profit and professional associations, political participation, respect in the workplace, and social responsibility.

The Audit Committee is responsible for responding to any reports as to any actual or alleged violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is in addition to fiduciary duties placed on individual directors pursuant to corporate legislation and the common law, and the conflict of interest provisions under corporate legislation which restricts an individual director’s participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest.

The Board has also adopted a Whistleblowing Policy with respect to the confidential and anonymous reporting of complaints and irregularities.

A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics can be found in the “Investors” section of our website at www.tiltholdings.com/investors. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirements of the SEC regarding amendments to, or waivers from, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, by posting such information on the same website.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Board as a whole determines the level of compensation for our senior executives, including our CEO and our CFO. The Compensation Committee, on behalf of the Board, establishes any policies and procedures with respect to the compensation of our senior executive officers. The Compensation Committee also assists the Board in discharging the Board’s oversight responsibilities relating to the attraction, compensation, evaluation and retention of key senior management employees, and in particular the CEO, with the skills and expertise needed to enable the Company to achieve its goals and strategies at fair and competitive compensation and appropriate performance incentives.

The Compensation Committee is responsible to review and approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to the CEO and other senior executive officers’ compensation, evaluate the performance of the CEO and each of the other senior executive officer’s performance in light of those goals and objectives, and recommend to the Board for approval the compensation level for each senior executive officer, including the CEO and CFO, based on this evaluation. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for the review of the compensation systems in order to ensure the fairness and appropriateness of the compensation plans in which our senior executive officers may participate, including our incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans.

Compensation Consultant

The Compensation Committee is directly responsible for the appointment and oversight of our independent compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee, with our independent compensation consultant, periodically reviews the compensation structure and levels paid to non-employee directors and makes recommendations for adjustments, as appropriate, to the Board.

The Compensation Committee considered advice provided by ClearBridge Compensation Group (“ClearBridge”), its independent compensation consultant, in establishing the 2022 non-employee director compensation. ClearBridge is retained by and reports directly to the Compensation Committee. ClearBridge provided the following services to the Compensation Committee: (i) recommending a peer group of companies, (ii) assisting the Compensation Committee in understanding compensation levels of executive officers in the benchmarking peer group, and (iii) assisting in a director pay analysis.

In 2022, Clear Bridge conducted a benchmarking review of our non-employee director compensation, covering both compensation levels and program design as compared to the peer group and shared its findings with Compensation Committee members. Based on the results of the review, the Compensation Committee adjusted our overall non-employee director program to align with our peers, both in terms of practices and structure as well as pay levels.

Named Executive Officers

A named executive officer (“NEO”) of the Company means each of the following individuals:

•

the principal executive officer of the Company during the last completed fiscal year;

•

the Company’s next two most highly compensated executive officers as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year, based on total compensation; and

•

up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided under the above but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer at the end of the last completed fiscal year.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company’s NEOs included: (i) Gary F. Santo, Jr., Former CEO; (ii) Dana Arvidson, CFO; and (iii) Brad Hoch, CAO.

Elements of NEO Compensation

As part of our executive compensation program, NEOs receive both fixed base compensation and performance-based variable compensation comprising of short-term and long-term incentives. The Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board with respect to proposals regarding designing and administering the Company’s executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee

TABLE OF CONTENTS

does not allocate compensation value to the different compensation elements on the basis of a formula, but rather on the basis of market practices and a discretionary assessment of an NEO’s past contribution and ability to contribute to future short and long-term business results of the Company.

Analysis of NEO Compensation Elements

Base Compensation

Base compensation is designed to provide income certainty and attract and retain executives. Base compensation for NEOs is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board as noted above. Base compensation is based on individual performance, the scope of the NEO’s role within the Company and retention considerations.

Short-Term Incentives (Annual Incentive Bonuses)

Annual incentive bonuses are short-term incentives that are intended to reward NEOs for their yearly individual contributions and performances of personal objectives in the context of overall annual corporate performance. The amount is not pre-established and is at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, subject to Board approval. The Compensation Committee may still recommend bonus payments for Board approval absent attainment of any relevant performance goals. Assessment of NEO performance objectives is based on a number of qualitative and quantitative factors including execution of on-going activities, individual and corporate operational and financial performance and progress on key initiatives connected to the Company’s strategy with respect to that particular fiscal year, using targeted guidance of 0-100% of annualized salary. An NEO must be employed by the Company at the time of payment of incentive bonuses with respect to a particular fiscal year in order to earn and be eligible to receive an incentive bonus for that year.

Long-term Incentives (Awards)

Long-term incentive compensation includes the grant of Awards (as defined below) pursuant to the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated on June 24, 2020 and June 9, 2022 (the “Plan”). The incentive arrangement is designed to motivate NEOs to achieve longer-term sustainable business results, align their interests with those of the shareholders, and attract and retain executives without requiring the Company to use cash from its treasury. The Plan permits the grant of (i) stock options (“Options”); (ii) restricted stock awards (“RS Awards”); (iii) restricted stock units (“RSUs”); (iv) stock appreciation rights (“SARs”); (v) performance-based compensation awards (“PSUs”); (vi) dividend equivalents (“Dividend Equivalents”); and (vii) other stock based awards (Options, RS Awards, RSUs, SARs, PSUs, and Dividend Equivalents with other stock based awards, collectively, the “Awards”). Any of the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants or any affiliate or person to whom an offer of employment or engagement with the Company or an affiliate of the Company is extended, is eligible to participate in the Plan if selected by the Compensation Committee, the Board or such other committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan.

The basis of participation of an individual under the Plan, and the type and amount of any Award that an individual (a “Participant”) is entitled to receive under the Plan is determined by the Compensation Committee, the Board or such other committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan and is based on their judgment of the best interests of the Company and the shareholders at the time of grant. When considering new grants of any Award, previous grants will be taken into account. The Compensation Committee, the Board or such other committee as may be designated by the Board, may at their discretion, amend, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or amend or alter any outstanding Award.

The number of securities that may be issued under the Plan is 60 million. The total number of Common Shares which may be issued or issuable to any one person under the Plan and all other security based compensation arrangements within any one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the Common Shares and of the total number of Common Shares and any convertible securities that are convertible into Common Shares at no additional expense to the holder (“Common Share Equivalents”), from time to time, outstanding. Any Common Shares subject to an Award under the Plan that are not purchased, forfeited, reacquired by the Company (including any withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations on Awards or securities that are settled in cash), or cancelled, will again be available to be awarded under the Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Plan was originally approved by shareholders on November 15, 2018. Amendments were made to the Plan to, among other things, ensure that Options granted under the Plan complied with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The amendment and restatement of the Plan was approved by shareholders on June 24, 2020. The Plan was subsequently amended and restated by the shareholders on June 9, 2022 to set the number of securities that may be issued under the Plan at 60 million; in addition, the Board approved and ratified certain administrative changes. The Plan was further amended and restated by the Board on April 25, 2023 to make certain administrative and technical updates. There are no requirements under applicable securities laws or the policies of the NEO Exchange to have the Plan approved by shareholders on a periodic basis. Pursuant to section 7(a) of the Plan, prior approval of the shareholders is required for any material amendment to the Plan.

Other Compensation

NEOs may occasionally receive other benefits that are reasonable and consistent with the Company’s overall executive compensation program. These benefits, which are based on competitive market practices, support the attraction and retention of executive officers. The NEOs are also entitled to participate in all employee pension and welfare benefit plans and programs, and fringe benefit plans and programs, made available by the Company to the Company’s employees generally in accordance with the eligibility and participation provisions of such plans and as such plans or programs may be in effect from time to time.

Anti-Hedging Policy

The Company’s Insider Trading Policy prohibits insiders of the Company from purchasing financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds, that are deigned to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities of the Company granted as compensation to such insiders or held, directly or indirectly by such insiders.

Gary F. Santo, Jr.

Employment Agreement

On May 13, 2021, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Gary F. Santo, Jr., to be effective June 1, 2021, pursuant to which Mr. Santo served as the CEO of the Company (the “CEO Agreement”). The Company entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release, effective as of April 21, 2023 (the “Santo Separation Agreement”), superseding and replacing the CEO Agreement and described in further detail below. The CEO Agreement set forth the principal terms and conditions of Mr. Santo’s employment, including an employment term of approximately 43 months ending at the close of business on December 31, 2024 and an annualized base salary of $385,259, subject to annual review by the Board. Mr. Santo’s CEO Agreement provided that he was entitled to receive an incentive bonus for each fiscal year that he is employed by the Company, the amount of which is to be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. Mr. Santo’s CEO Agreement also provided that he was entitled to receive long term incentive compensation, the details of which include 8,319,279 units, composed of 10% RSUs which are “time based” and vest over 43 months, subject to certain vesting provisions, up to a maximum of 831,928 Common Shares, and 90% PSUs which are “performance based” and vest over 43 months, up to a maximum award of 7,487,351 Common Shares, as described below. During the term of his employment, Mr. Santo was entitled to participate in all group welfare benefit and retirement plans and programs and other fringe benefit plans and programs.

The vesting of the PSUs on whether the Company’s six-month average closing price (“6-month ACP”) of Common Shares on the NEO Exchange or such other recognized exchange in Canada on which the Common Shares are listed and trading achieves certain “target common share prices” (the “PSU ACP Targets”). To the extent the 6-month ACP reaches each of the following “target common share prices”, ten percent of the PSUs would vest:

The Common Share price targets outlined above in each tier level are in USD.

The 6-month ACP would be calculated after the completion of the first half of the fiscal year (1/1 – 6/30) and the second half of the fiscal year (7/1 – 12/31) annually for each of the four years, representing seven distinct opportunities to achieve some or all of the common share price targets (first test in second half of 2021).

The vesting of PSUs (if any) shall occur on December 31, 2021, December 31, 2022, December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024 (each, a “Vesting Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum number of PSUs that can be vested as of each Vesting Date were as follows:

Vesting Date	Number of PSUs
December 31, 2021		1,871,837
December 31, 2022		3,743,674
December 31, 2023		5,615,511
December 31, 2024		7,487,351

In the event where the number of PSUs to be vested on a Vesting Date exceeded the maximum number of PSUs permitted to be vested (the “Spill-over PSUs”), the Spill-over PSUs shall vest on the next Vesting Date, subject again to the limits established above. None of Mr. Santo’s PSUs vested in 2021 or 2022.

Pursuant to the terms of the CEO Agreement, in the event that Mr. Santo was terminated for cause by the Company or resigned without good reason, Mr. Santo would be entitled to receive any accrued but unpaid base salary, reimbursement of unreimbursed business expenses, and accrued executive benefits including any unpaid incentive bonus earned as well as equity compensation if vested.

Under the terms of the CEO Agreement, in the event that Mr. Santo was terminated without cause by the Company or were to resign for good reason, Mr. Santo would be entitled to receive any accrued amounts

(including any accrued unpaid base salary, reimbursement for unreimbursed business expenses, and executive benefits, including any unpaid incentive bonus earned or equity compensation, if vested), subject to the execution by Mr. Santo of a release of claims in favor of the Company. In addition, Mr. Santo would be entitled to receive a severance payment equal to a flat twelve months (or 1x) of Mr. Santo’s annual base salary. For all outstanding equity awards granted to Mr. Santo for long term incentives the following would occur: the time vesting schedule for PSUs, for which the stock price conditions have been met, would be accelerated to the date of termination, and for RSUs, Mr. Santo shall receive 12 months service credit for every year of service for all outstanding unvested RSUs granted. Additionally, if Mr. Santo timely and properly elected continuing health coverage under Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), he would receive partial reimbursement for the monthly health care insurance premiums increase paid by Mr. Santo for himself and his dependents.

Pursuant to the terms of the CEO Agreement, upon the occurrence of a change of control event, Mr. Santo would receive any accrued amounts and a lump sum severance payment equal to a flat eighteen months (or 1.5x) Mr. Santo’s annual base salary, plus his full incentive bonus for that fiscal year, subject to Mr. Santo’s execution of a general release in favor of the Company. In addition, all target Common Share prices from Mr. Santo’s equity award would be deemed to have been met. If Mr. Santo’s equity award was equitably assumed by the ongoing corporation based on its value at the change in control, vesting will occur in accordance with the original time vesting schedule. If Mr. Santo’s employment is terminated without cause after the change of control event, any unvested portion of Mr. Santo’s equity award will vest upon the termination date. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the ongoing corporation were not to equitably assume Mr. Santo’s equity award, vesting would accelerate to the change of control date. Additionally, if Mr. Santo timely and properly elected continuing health coverage under COBRA, Mr. Santo would receive partial reimbursement for the monthly health care insurance premiums increase paid by Mr. Santo for himself and his dependents.

Separation Agreement

On April 21, 2023, Gary F. Santo, Jr. resigned as Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “Resignation”), effective April 21, 2023 (the “Separation Date”).

•

reduction of the restricted period of post-termination non-solicitation obligations set forth in the CEO Agreement from twelve months to three months; and

•

waiver of the post-termination non-competition obligations set forth in the CEO Agreement.

In exchange for the consideration provided in the Santo Separation Agreement, Mr. Santo agreed to release and discharge the Company and certain related parties from claims and causes of action, including arising out of or relating to his employment by the Company or his separation from the Company. The Company has also agreed to release Mr. Santo from certain claims and causes of action arising out of or relating to his employment by the Company or his separation from the Company, other than violations of applicable federal or state criminal law or claims which a court has not approved indemnification by the Company to Mr. Santo pursuant to the existing Indemnification Agreement with Mr. Santo or has determined that indemnification is prohibited under Section 163 of the BCBCA.

Directors are elected to hold office for a term of one year. The Board will analyze the application of the “independent” standard, as such term is referred to in National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, to individual members of the Board on an annual basis and disclose that analysis. The Board will in each year appoint a chair of the Board (the “Chair”), such appointment being subject to any agreement providing for nomination rights to the Board.

The Board operates by delegating certain of its authorities to management and by reserving certain powers to itself. The Board retains the responsibility of managing its own affairs including selecting its Chair, nominating candidates for election to the Board, constituting committees of the Board and determining compensation for the directors. Subject to the notice of articles and articles of the Company and the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCCA”), the Board may constitute, seek the advice of, and delegate certain powers, duties and responsibilities to, committees of the Board.

MEETINGS

The Board shall have a minimum of four regularly scheduled meetings per year. Special meetings are called as necessary. Occasional Board trips are scheduled, if possible, in conjunction with regular Board meetings, to offer directors the opportunity to visit sites and facilities at different operational locations. A quorum for a meeting of the Board shall consist of a simple majority of the members of the Board.

The Board will schedule executive sessions where directors meet with or without management participation at each regularly-scheduled meeting of the Board.

An independent director, as defined in NI 52-110 is a director who has no direct or indirect material relationship which could, in the view of the Company’s Board of Directors, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member’s independent judgment or as otherwise determined to be independent in accordance with NI 52-110.
