LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

FOR REGISTERED HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES

OF

MINDSET PHARMA INC.

This letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") is for use by Shareholders of Mindset in connection with the proposed arrangement (the "Arrangement") involving Mindset, its securityholders and 1435816 B.C. Ltd. (the "Purchaser") that is being submitted for approval at the special meeting of shareholders of Mindset to be held on Thursday, October 19, 2023 (including any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, the "Meeting") as described in the Circular. The Circular contains important information and Shareholders are urged to read the Circular in its entirety.

Pursuant to, and upon completion of, the Arrangement, the Purchaser will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of Mindset and each Shareholder at the Effective Time will be entitled to receive CAD $0.75 for each Common Share (the "Consideration") held by such Shareholder. In order for a registered Shareholder to receive the Consideration to which such Shareholder is entitled, such Shareholder must deliver to Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the "Depositary") this Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, the certificate(s), if any, representing their Common Shares and all other documents and instruments referred to in this Letter of Transmittal or reasonably requested by the Depositary.

This Letter of Transmittal is for use by registered Shareholders only and is not to be used by non-registered, beneficial holders of Common Shares. A non-registered holder does not have Common Shares registered in its name; rather, such Common Shares are registered in the name of the broker, investment dealer, bank, trust company, custodian, nominee or other intermediary ("Intermediary") through which it purchased the Common Shares or in the name of a clearing agency (such as CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or The Depository Trust Company) or its nominee of which the Intermediary is a participant. Shareholders whose Common Shares are registered in the name of an Intermediary should NOT use this Letter of Transmittal and should contact that intermediary for instructions and assistance.

Registered holders of Common Shares who hold a Direct Registration System ("DRS") advice representing their Common Shares must also complete this Letter of Transmittal; however, such holders will not be required to surrender any previously issued DRS Advices in order to receive their Consideration.

THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ARRANGEMENT (THE "EFFECTIVE DATE") WILL OCCUR AFTER ALL CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF THE ARRANGEMENT HAVE BEEN SATISFIED OR WAIVED. NO PAYMENT OF ANY CONSIDERATION WILL BE MADE PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE.

ALL DEPOSITS MADE UNDER THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL ARE IRREVOCABLE. Should the Arrangement not proceed for any reason, the deposited certificates and other relevant documents will be returned in accordance with the instructions herein.

Whether or not the undersigned delivers the required documentation to the Depositary, as of the Effective Time, the undersigned will cease to be a holder of Common Shares and, subject to the ultimate expiry deadline identified below, will only be entitled to receive the Consideration to which the undersigned is entitled under the Arrangement.

SHAREHOLDERS WHO DO NOT DELIVER THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, THE CERTIFICATE(S) REPRESENTING THEIR COMMON SHARES (IF ANY), AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO THE DEPOSITARY ON OR BEFORE THE DAY IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE DAY THAT IS THREE YEARS FROM THE EFFECTIVE DATE (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE CIRCULAR) WILL LOSE THEIR RIGHT TO RECEIVE THE CONSIDERATION IN EXCHANGE FOR SUCH SHAREHOLDER'S COMMON SHARES, AND ANY RIGHT OR CLAIM TO PAYMENT UNDER THE ARRANGEMENT THAT REMAINS OUTSTANDING ON THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE WILL CEASE TO REPRESENT A RIGHT OR CLAIM OF ANY KIND OR NATURE AND THE RIGHT OF THE SHAREHOLDER TO RECEIVE THE CONSIDERATION FOR THEIR COMMON SHARES WILL TERMINATE AND BE DEEMED TO BE SURRENDERED AND FORFEITED FOR NO CONSIDERATION.

SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ARRANGEMENT. SEE SECTIONS "CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS" AND "CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS" OF THE CIRCULAR THAT ACCOMPANIES THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

Please note that the delivery of this Letter of Transmittal, together with your share certificate(s) and any other document reasonably required by the Depositary, does not constitute a vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution or any other matters to be considered at the Meeting. To exercise your right to vote at the Meeting, you must follow the instructions contained in the Circular and on the form of proxy provided to you.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Letter of Transmittal have the meanings set out in the Circular.
