Appointment of Chief Executive Officer

On June 22, 2022, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of DIRTT Environmental Solutions Ltd. (the "Company") appointed Benjamin Urban to serve as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and principal executive officer, effective June 27, 2022. Mr. Urban, 46, joins the Company from Agile Interiors, a leading distribution partner of the Company, where Mr. Urban served as a business development executive for fifteen years. Mr. Urban obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in International Business from the University of Denver, Daniel's College of Business and holds a Certificate in International Business Management from Instituto Technologico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey.

Mr. Urban does not have any family relationship with any other director or executive officer of the Company, nor are there any related party transactions between the Company and Mr. Urban that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. The Company and Mr. Urban have entered into an executive employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") on June 22, 2022, under which Mr. Urban is entitled to certain remuneration and benefits and rights on termination, and which subjects Mr. Urban to certain ongoing and post-termination obligations and restrictive covenants. The foregoing summary of the Employment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to a subsequent Company filing.

The Company will enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Mr. Urban, which requires the Company to indemnify him to the fullest extent permitted under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) and to such greater extent as applicable law may hereafter from time to time permit. The foregoing description of the indemnification agreement does not purport to be complete and should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to a subsequent Company filing.

Concurrent with Mr. Urban's appointment, effective June 27, 2022, Geoffrey Krause, the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer and principal executive officer, will cease his roles as such and resume his prior position as the Company's Chief Financial Officer and principal financial officer; and Jeffrey Metcalf, the Company's Interim Chief Financial Officer and principal financial officer, will cease his roles as such and resume his prior position as the Company's Vice-President, Finance.

Appointment of Directors

On and effective June 22, 2022, the authorized number of directors on the Board was increased from seven to nine. Mr. Urban was appointed to serve as a member of the Board concurrent with his appointment as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and principal executive officer. In addition, the Board appointed Mr. Shaun Noll to serve as a member of the Board, effective June 22, 2022.

As an employee director, Mr. Urban is not considered independent under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In addition, Mr. Urban is not entitled to additional compensation in connection with his appointment as a director of the Company.

Based on information provided by Mr. Noll concerning his background, employment, and affiliations, the Board has determined that he meets the independence requirements under the Nasdaq rules. As a non-employee director, Mr. Noll will be entitled to receive the same compensation paid by the Company to each of its non-employee directors as described under "Director Compensation" in the Company's definitive proxy statement for its 2022 annual and special meeting of shareholders filed with the SEC on March 24, 2022, which description is incorporated herein by reference. There are no related party transactions between the Company and Mr. Noll that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. The Company will enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Mr. Noll, which requires the Company to indemnify him to the fullest extent permitted under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) and to such greater extent as applicable law may hereafter from time to time permit. The foregoing description of the indemnification agreement does not purport to be complete and should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to a subsequent Company filing.
