The Lion Electric Company Notice of annual meeting of shareholders and management information circular An all-electric commercial vehicle manufacturer

April 19, 2023

		Dear Shareholders, On behalf of the Board of Directors and management of The Lion Electric Company, we are pleased to invite you to attend the annual meeting of shareholders of Lion that will be held virtually on May 30, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time). At the beginning of last year, as we were discussing our strategic objectives for 2022, we highlighted the following specific areas of focus that would guide our work and investments: •   ramping up production at our Saint-Jérôme, Quebec manufacturing facility; •   establishing manufacturing operations at our U.S. manufacturing facility located in Joliet, Illinois and our battery manufacturing facility located at the YMX International Aerocity of Mirabel, Quebec; and •   accelerating vehicle and charging infrastructure deliveries.

Throughout the year, despite an uncertain market environment, we focused on executing our strategy, while maintaining our leadership in the electric school bus space. We indeed increased our vehicle production cadence and delivered 519 vehicles in 2022, as compared to 196 vehicles in 2021. Today, we have more than 950 vehicles on the road in Canada and the United States that have collectively driven more than 10 million miles in real operating conditions.

We also achieved significant milestones in our two growth projects, as we assembled our first electric school bus unit at our U.S. manufacturing plant and our first battery pack at our battery factory.

As we start 2023, our objective is to continue to invest in our two new manufacturing factories to ramp-up production capacity, while continue to seek to align capital spend with expected near-term demand for our vehicles and to carefully managing our liquidity.

As a shareholder of Lion, we invite you to vote your shares on all items that come before the annual meeting of shareholders. Your vote and participation are very important to us. You can vote your shares either by proxy or online at the meeting. The enclosed management information circular provides you with information about these items and how to exercise your right to vote. It also provides further information about the director nominees, the proposed auditors, the compensation of directors and certain executives of Lion, as well as our approach to executive compensation. Detailed instructions on how to participate in our virtual meeting can also be found in the management information circular.

I would like to conclude by thanking Lion's employees and management team who work with passion and dedication to make Lion a leader in the electric vehicle industry and who share our optimism for the future. Thanks also to our Board of Directors for their commitment that inspires us to excel and to you, our shareholders, for your confidence.

Sincerely,

Marc Bedard (Signed)

CEO-Founder

The Meeting will be held as a completely virtual meeting, which will be conducted via live webcast, with a view to make the Meeting more accessible to all shareholders regardless of their geographic location and to maximize shareholder attendance. Shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. A summary of the information Shareholders will need to attend the Meeting online is provided below.

No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation in connection with any other matters to be considered at the Meeting other than those contained in this Circular and, if given or made, any such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized.

Certain Defined Terms

Unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires, all information provided in this Circular is given as at April 19, 2023 and references to "Lion", "we", "our", "us", "the Company" or similar terms refer to The Lion Electric Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis. We publish our consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars. In this Circular, unless otherwise specified, all monetary amounts are in U.S. dollars, all references to "$", "US$" and "USD" and "dollars" mean U.S. dollars and all references to "C$", "CDN$", "CAD$", mean Canadian dollars.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Circular contains "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities laws and within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Any statements contained in this Circular that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about Lion's beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and should be evaluated as such.

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "may," "will," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "should," "would," "could," "plan," "project," "potential," "seem," "seek," "future," "target" or other similar expressions and any other statements that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, although not all forward-looking statements may contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements include statements information with respect to Lion's objectives and strategies as well as information with respect to Lion's beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates, and intentions. Such forward-looking statements are based on a number of estimates and assumptions that Lion believes are reasonable when made, including that Lion will be able to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and other business partners, that Lion will continue to operate its business in the normal course, that Lion will be able to implement its growth strategy, that Lion will be able to successfully and timely complete the construction of, and successfully and timely establish its operations and ramp-up manufacturing capacity at, its U.S. manufacturing facility and its Quebec battery plant and innovation center, that Lion will not suffer any supply chain challenges or any material disruption in the supply of raw materials on competitive terms, that Lion will be able to maintain its competitive position, that Lion will continue to improve its operational, financial and other internal controls and systems to manage its growth and size, that Lion will be able to benefit, either directly or indirectly (including through applications made by Lion and/or its clients), from governmental subsidies and incentives, and that Lion will be able to secure additional funding through equity or debt financing on terms acceptable to Lion and in the amounts needed when required in the future. Such estimates and assumptions are made by Lion in light of the experience of management and their perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors believed to be appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances. However, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct.

7

Risks and uncertainties related to the businesses of Lion are described in greater detail in section 23.0 of the Company's management discussion and analysis ("MD&A") for the year ended December 31, 2022 ("Fiscal 2022") entitled "Risk Factors." Many of these risks are beyond Lion's management's ability to control or predict. All forward-looking statements attributable to Lion or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained and risk factors identified in the MD&A and in other documents filed with the applicable Canadian regulatory securities authorities and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC'').

Because of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, readers should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Furthermore, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. This Circular reflects information available to the Company as of April 19, 2023, the date of this Circular. Except as required under applicable securities laws, Lion undertakes no obligation, and expressly disclaims any duty, to update, revise or review any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

GENERAL PROXY MATTERS

Proxy Solicitation

The solicitation of proxies pursuant to this Circular is being made by or on behalf of Management primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited via the Internet, by telephone, in writing or in person, by directors, officers or regular employees of the Company who will receive no compensation therefor in addition to their regular remuneration. The Company may also reimburse brokers and other persons holding Common Shares in their name or in the name of nominees for the costs incurred in sending proxy materials to their principals in order to obtain their proxies. The cost of the solicitation is expected to be nominal and will be borne by the Company.

Who Can Vote

Only persons registered as holders of Common Shares as of the close of business on April 19, 2023 (the "Record Date") are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, and no person becoming a Shareholder after the Record Date shall be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof. The failure of any Shareholder to receive notice of the Meeting does not deprive the Shareholder of the right to vote at the Meeting to which the Shareholder would have otherwise been entitled.

Notice-and-Access

The Company is using the notice-and-access procedures as permitted by Canadian securities laws for the delivery of the Circular, the audited annualconsolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the "Financial Statements"), together with the independent auditor's report thereon and the related management's discussion and analysis (the "Proxy Materials") to both its registered and non-registered Shareholders. Under the notice-and-access procedures, instead of receiving paper copies of the Proxy Materials, Shareholders will receive a notice of availability of proxy materials (which provides information on how to access copies of the Proxy Materials, how to request a paper copy of the Proxy Materials and details about the Meeting). The Notice-and-Access Letter and form of proxy or voting instruction form have been sent to both registered and non-registered Shareholders, as applicable. Notice-and-access substantially reduces the Company's printing and mailing costs and is more environmentally friendly as it reduces paper and energy consumption. The Proxy Materials are available on the Company's website at ir.thelionelectric.com and under its profiles on SEDAR atwww.sedar.com and EDGAR atwww.sec.gov.

If you appoint someone else, he or she must attend the Meeting to vote your Common Shares, otherwise your vote will not be taken into account.

Follow the instructions from your intermediary included with the legal proxy and the voting information form sent to you, or contact your intermediary to request a legal proxy if you have not received one. After obtaining a valid legal proxy from your intermediary, you must then submit such legal proxy to TSX Trust Company.

How to Vote - Non-Registered Shareholders

You are a non-registered Shareholder if your Common Shares are held in the name of a depositary or a nominee such as a trustee, financial institution, or securities broker (a "Nominee"). If you are not sure whether you are a non-registered Shareholder, please contact your Nominee, person servicing your account or other intermediary.

If you are not sure whether you are a non-registered Shareholder, please contact the Company's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, at 1-800-387-0825 (toll free in Canada and the United States) or 416-682-3860 (other countries).

By Proxy

Your Nominee is required to ask for your voting instructions before the Meeting. In most cases, non-registered Shareholders will receive a voting instruction form which allows them to provide their voting instructions by mail, the Internet or by telephone. Please contact your Nominee if you did not receive a request for voting instructions with your Notice-and-Access Letter.

By Mail

You may vote your Common Shares by completing the voting instruction form as directed on the form and returning it in the business reply envelope provided for receipt no later than 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on May 26, 2023. If you return your voting instruction form by mail, you can appoint yourself or a person other than the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder. This person does not have to be a Shareholder. Make sure that the person you appoint as your Proxyholder is aware that he or she has been appointed and attends the Meeting online, otherwise your vote will not be taken into account.

You can vote your Common Shares at the Meeting if you have instructed your Nominee to appoint you as Proxyholder. To do this, write your name in the blank space provided on the voting instruction form and otherwise follow the instructions of your Nominee.

If you do not duly appoint yourself as Proxyholder, then you will not be able to ask questions or vote at the Meeting, but will be able to attend the Meeting online as a guest.

If you are a non-registered Shareholder voting your Common Shares, please follow the instructions provided in the voting instruction form.

When you submit the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, without appointing an alternate Proxyholder, you authorize the Named Proxyholders to vote your Common Shares for you at the Meeting in accordance with your instructions.

If you have NOT specified how to vote on a particular matter, your Proxyholder is entitled to vote your Common Shares as they see fit. Please note that if you return your proxy without specifying how you want to vote your Common Shares and if you have authorized the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder, the Named Proxyholders will vote your Common Shares FOR electing the director nominees who are named in this circular, and FOR appointing Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton LLP as the independent auditor of the Company and as they see fit on any other matter that may properly come before the Meeting.

Management is not aware of any other matters which will be presented for action at the Meeting. If, however, other matters properly come before the Meeting, the Named Proxyholders will vote in accordance with their judgment, pursuant to the discretionary authority conferred by the proxy with respect to such other matters.

15

You have the right to appoint a person or company other than the Named Proxyholders to be your Proxyholder. If you are appointing someone else to vote your Common Shares for you at the Meeting, fill in the name of the person voting for you in the blank space provided on the form of proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable). If you do not specify how you want your Common Shares voted, your Proxyholder will vote your Common Shares as he or she sees fit on each item scheduled to come before the meeting and on any other matter that may properly come before the Meeting.

A Proxyholder has the same rights as the Shareholder by whom he or she was appointed to participate at the Meeting in respect of any matter, to vote by way of ballot at the Meeting and, except where the Proxyholder has conflicting instructions from more than one Shareholder, to vote at the Meeting in respect of any matter.

If you are an individual Shareholder, you or your authorized attorney must sign the form of proxy or voting instruction form. If you are a corporation or other legal entity, an authorized officer or attorney must sign the form of proxy or voting instruction form.

Changing Your Vote

If the voting instructions were conveyed online, by telephone or by mail, conveying new voting instructions online, by telephone or by mail prior to the applicable cut-off times will revoke the prior instructions. If you are a registered Shareholder, voting at the Meeting will automatically cancel any proxy you completed and submitted earlier.

Voting Requirements

Each Common Share owned as at the close of business on the Record Date entitles the holder to one vote on any and all resolutions voted on at the Meeting. This includes the election of directors, the appointment of the independent auditor of the Company and any other ordinary business that may arise at the Meeting. All matters that are scheduled to be voted upon at the Meeting are ordinary resolutions. Ordinary resolutions are passed by a simple majority, meaning that if more than half of the votes that are cast at the Meeting are in favour, then the resolution passes.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee retained the services of Willis Towers Watson during Fiscal 2021 to review the Company's director compensation market positioning and to assist in the development of a formal director compensation policy for non-employee directors (the "Outside Directors"), which was adopted by Lion's Board of Directors during the same year.

As CEO-Founder, Mr. Marc Bedard does not receive compensation for his services as director of the Company. Mr. Bedard's compensation serving as CEO-Founder is disclosed under the section "Executive Compensation - Discussion and Analysis".

The written mandate of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee provides that the Compensation Committee shall periodically evaluate and make recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the director compensation program, including with respect to appropriate forms and amounts of compensation to be paid to Outside Directors, to ensure that it properly aligns the objectives described above and that it realistically reflects the responsibilities and risks involved in being an effective director of the Company.

Detailed information about the Omnibus Plan can be found in the subsection entitled "Omnibus Plan" under the section "Executive Compensation - Discussion and Analysis - Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIP)" of this Circular.

All DSUs granted to Outside Directors under the Omnibus Plan vest entirely on the date of grantand take the form of a bookkeeping entry credited to the eligible director's account to be paid after the director ceases to act as director.In the event any dividend were to be paid on the Common Shares, outstanding DSUs would earn dividend equivalents in the form of additional DSUs at the same rate as dividends would be paid on the Common Shares.DSUs will be settled in cash and/or in Common Shares of the Company purchased on the open market or issued from treasury, at the discretion of the Board of Directors.Each Outside Director can elect to receive up to 100% of his or her annual cash retainer in the form of DSUs. The cash and equity retainers are payable bi-annually with the number of DSUs to be issued determined based on the volume-weighted average trading price on the TSX for the five trading days prior to each such issuance. For Fiscal 2022, Mr. Pierre Larochelle. Mr. Michel Ringuet and

32

Mr. Pierre Wilkie each elected to receive 100% of their annual cash retainer in the form of DSUs and Mr. Dane L. Parker elected to receive 75% of his annual cash retainer in the form of DSUs. During Fiscal 2022, two grants of DSUs were awarded to directors, with such grants being made on May 13, 2022 and December 22, 2022.

In addition to the compensation described above that is payable to Outside Directors, directors are entitled to be reimbursed for reasonable travel and other expenses incurred by them in carrying out their duties as directors of the Company. The Company does not offer a meeting fee for Board of Directors members. The total retainer is deemed to be the full payment for the role of director. For a summary of the total compensation earned by such directors during Fiscal 2022, please refer to the next section.

Incentive Plan Awards - Value Vested or Earned During the Year

None of the option-based awards held by Outside Directors that vested during Fiscal 2022 were in-the-money. See "Total Compensation of Outside Directors" and "Outstanding Share-Based Awards and Option-Based Award" for details on the DSUs granted during Fiscal 2022, all of which vested entirely on the date of grantand took the form of a bookkeeping entry credited to the eligible director's account to be paid after the director ceases to act as director.

Share Ownership Guidelines for Directors

On August 11, 2021, the Board of Directors adopted share ownership guidelines for Outside Directors according to which each Outside Director is expected to hold a minimum of 2.5x their total annual retainer in Common Shares and/or DSUs. Pursuant to the guidelines, each director will be required to attain the required level of share ownership within five years of the later of (i) the date on which such director joined the Board of Directors, or (ii) the date of adoption of the guidelines. As of the date of this Circular, only Michel Ringuet has met the Company's share ownership guidelines for Outside Directors. See "Business of the Meeting - Description of Proposed Nominee Directors" for information concerning the individual holdings of the director nominees.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following discussion describes the significant elements of the Company's executive compensation program, with particular emphasis on the process for determining the compensation payable to the named executive officers ("Named Executive Officer" or "NEOs"), being (i) the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), (ii) the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), and (iii) each of the three other most highly compensated executive officers (or individuals acting in a similar capacity) of the Company. For Fiscal 2022, the Company's NEOs were:

•

Marc Bedard, CEO-Founder;

•

Nicolas Brunet, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer;

•

François Duquette, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary;

34

•

Brian Piern, Chief Commercial Officer; and

•

Yannick Poulin, Chief Operating Officer.

Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

Lion operates in a dynamic and rapidly evolving industry. To succeed in this environment and to achieve its business and financial objectives, Lion needs to attract, retain and motivate a highly talented team of executive officers. The executive compensation program is based on a pay-for-performance philosophy.

Lion's compensation philosophy is designed to:

•

align the compensation provided to its executives, including the Named Executive Officers, with the achievement of business objectives including growth and expansion;

•

enable Lion to attract, motivate and retain key individuals who contribute to Lion's long-term success;

•

promote increase in shareholder value and strong alignment with the shareholders' interests;

•

encourage teamwork and innovation;

•

determine a clear link between both business and individual performance and all short-term and long-term components of compensation; and

•

encourage nimbleness and agility in managing the business to succeed.

Role and Accountabilities of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Wilkie, Perras, Parker and Ms. Bair, with Mr. Wilkie acting as chair. All members of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee have a working familiarity with human resources and compensation matters.

The relevant experience of each member of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee is described as part of their respective biographies. See "Business of the Meeting -Description of Proposed Nominee Directors". Each of Mr. Wilkie, Ms. Bair and Mr. Parker is considered independent under the standards set forth under Section 1.4 of NI 52-110, whereas Mr. Perras is not considered independent under such standards. The Board of Directors encourages an objective process for determining compensation by, among other things, reviewing compensation-related matters under the Human Resources and Compensation Committee's responsibility comprised of a majority of independent directors and by reviewing any potential conflicts in order to ensure the integrity of the process. See "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices - Board of Directors - Independence" for a discussion on the independence of the members of the Board of Directors.

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee plays a critical role in the oversight and governance of the executive compensation policies and programs of the Company. The purpose of the Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities as they relate to the Company's key human resources and compensation policies, plans and programs, and to review the performance of, and to review and determine (or recommend to the Board of Directors for approval) the compensation to be paid to, the Company's executive officers.

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee evaluates and recommends to the Board of Directors for approval the compensation policies, plans and programs advisable for the executive officers of the Company, and evaluates and recommends to the Board of Directors from time to time for approval the adoption of any new policies, plans and programs or any modification or termination of existing policies, plans and programs as it deems necessary. The objective of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee is to maintain an overall compensation structure designed to attract, retain and motivate executive officers by providing appropriate levels of risk and reward in proportion to individual contribution and individual and corporate performance.

35

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee reviews and approves, or recommends to the Board of Directors for approval, individual and corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the Company's executive officers, evaluates the performance of the Company's executive officers in light of such goals and objectives and with appropriate input from other independent directors and, in the case of the Company's executive officers other than the CEO-Founder, the CEO-Founder, and determines and recommends to the Board of Directors for approval the compensation levels for the CEO and the Company's other executive officers.

The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Human Resources and Compensation Committee describing the mandate of the Committee. Under its charter, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee assumes various responsibilities on matters that are specific to executive compensation. Please refer to the section "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices - Board of Directors Committees - Human Resources and Compensation Committee" for further information regarding the Human Resources and Compensation Committee and its mandate.

Compensation Consulting Services and Related Fees

Under its charter, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee has the authority to retain from time to time the services of executive compensation consultants to provide independent advice on executive and/or director compensation and related governance issues. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee also has the authority to determine and pay the fees of such consultants. All compensation and non-compensation services provided by such independent advisors, consultants and experts to the Company must be pre-approved by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee or its chair.

In Fiscal 2021, the Board of Directors retained Willis Towers Watson, an independent consulting firm, to provide advice in connection with the Company's executive compensation practices, including, among other things, the following:

•

establishing a peer comparator group of public companies with similar attributes to the Company;

•

conducting a market review for the purpose of benchmarking executive compensation policies and plans;

•

supporting the design of an equity-based,long-term incentive compensation framework for the executive officers of the Company; and

•

reviewing proposed terms of the Company's Omnibus Plan and grants thereunder.

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors did not retain the services of any executive compensation consultants to provide independent advice on the executive and/or director compensation and related governance issues during Fiscal 2022. As such, the Company incurred the following consulting fees in connection with executive compensation related matters in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021.

		Fiscal 2022			Fiscal 2021
Executive Compensation-Related Fees(1)		C$	0			C$	101,237.79
All Other Fees		C$	0			C$	0
Total Fees Paid		C$	0			C$	101,237.79

(1)	See discussion above for further details regarding the services rendered by Willis Towers Watson during Fiscal 2021.

Market Positioning and Benchmarking

As part of the executive compensation review and design process, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee established in Fiscal 2021 a peer group (the "Comparator Group") to benchmark compensation.

36

The selection criteria used to determine the composition of the Comparator Group include the following:

•

companies competing for similar talent in North America;

•

companies in similar industry sectors;

•

publicly-traded organizations in Canada and the United States; and

•

companies of comparable size (measured by operations and market capitalization).

The Comparator Group was established by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee with the assistance of Willis Towers Watson, and used to benchmark executive compensation policies and plans. The Comparator Group is composed of the following companies, which meet all or some of the foregoing criteria:

Comparator Group
BRP Inc.		Blue Bird Corporation
NFI Group Inc.		Spruce Power (formerly XL Fleet Corp.)
CAE Inc.		Canoo Inc.
Héroux-Devtek Inc.		Workhorse Group Inc.
Savaria Corporation		Nikola Corporation
GreenPower Motor Company Inc.		Hyliion Holdings Corp.
PACCAR Inc		Lordstown Motors Corp.
Navistar International Corporation		Proterra Inc.

This Comparator Group is supplemented by other sources of competitive pay information and represents an important input in establishing compensation levels and structure. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee, in accordance with its compensation philosophy, periodically assesses the composition of the Comparator Group and the competitiveness of the compensation package to make compensation-related decisions.

Principal Elements of Compensation

The compensation of the Company's executive officers includes three major elements: (i) base salary; (ii) short-term incentives, consisting of annual bonuses and (iii) long-term equity incentives, consisting of awards under the Omnibus Plan. Perquisites and personal benefits are not a significant element of compensation of the executive officers of the Company. The Company's compensation philosophy is to set the total direct compensation package for its Named Executive Officers at market median based on the Company's Comparator Group and is designed to result in above market median compensation when performance so warrants.

Base Salary

Annual base salaries are intended to provide a fixed component of compensation to Lion's Named Executive Officers, reflecting their skill sets, experience, roles and responsibilities. Base salaries for Lion's Named Executive Officers have generally been set at levels deemed necessary to attract and retain individuals with superior talent. A Named Executive Officer's base salary is determined by taking into consideration the NEO's total compensation package and the Company's overall compensation philosophy.

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee reviews base salaries periodically, and at least annually, to ensure that they continue to reflect individual performance and market conditions, and merit increases or other adjustments are made, as deemed appropriate. Additionally, Lion may choose to adjust base salaries as warranted throughout the year to reflect promotions or other changes in the scope or breadth of a Named Executive Officer's role or responsibilities, as well as to maintain market competitiveness, including within the Comparator Group.

Annual Short-Term Incentive Program (STIP)

In accordance with the terms of their respective employment agreements, certain of Lion's Named Executive Officers and other executive officers are eligible to receive annual cash bonuses based

37

on individual and company performance or other criteria as may be determined by Lion's Board of Directors from time to time. The Company's STIP is designed to motivate executive officers to meet the Company's business and financial objectives generally.

In Fiscal 2022, actual payouts under the STIP could range from zero to two times each NEO's target STIP and were dependent upon the achievement of the business and individual performance goals described below. Furthermore, if a NEO did not meet a certain threshold with respect to his/her personal goals, his/her actual STIP award could be nil for that reference year, regardless of the business performance.

For Fiscal 2022, the bonus awarded under the STIP with respect to NEOs and other members of the management was determined by the Board of Directors upon recommendation from the Human Resources and Compensation Committee, based on business performance metrics (50%) and the achievement of personal goals (50%). Applicable business performance metrics and targets and individual personal goals of each NEOs as well as the corresponding payout levels were established at the beginning of the year by the Board of Directors upon recommendation from the Human Resources and Compensation Committee.

The table below sets out the performance metrics that comprised the business performance component of the Fiscal 2022 STIP:

Performance Metric		Weight of Metric
Revenue			50	%
Gross Margin			25	%
Adjusted EBITDA(1)			25	%

(1)	Refer to the management discussion and analysis of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 for additional information on Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS measure.

For Fiscal 2022, most NEOs achieved their applicable personal goals. Personal goals established by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee for each NEOs were aligned with the Company's business plan and growth strategy, with the objective of producing long-term benefits to the Company as opposed to immediate short-term success that may not necessarily be sustainable. Personal goals related to, among others, the delivery of growth projects such as the ramp-up of its Saint-Jérôme facility and the establishment of manufacturing operations at the Company's U.S. manufacturing facility located in Joliet, Illinois and its battery manufacturing plant located in Mirabel, the effective utilization of resources and cost control and optimization, the hiring of key leaders to support the business plan and the launch of LionCapital Solutions. The individual performance of the NEO is determined by clear pre-determined criteria for achievement of the respective NEO's personal goals.

The table below sets out the STIP targets, maximum and actual payout earned by the NEOs for Fiscal 2022:

NEO		Position		Target Payout (as % of base salary)			Maximum Payout (as % of base salary)			Actual Business Performance Payout (50% of STIP)			Actual Personal Goal Performance (50% of STIP)			Actual Total Payout under STIP
Marc Bédard		CEO - Founder			100	%			200	%		0$				$	228,329			$	228,329
Nicolas Brunet		Executive Vice President and CFO			75	%			150	%		0$				$	120,297			$	120,297
François Duquette		Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary			50	%			100	%		0$				$	66,045			$	66,045
Yannick Poulin		Chief Operating Officer			50	%			100	%		0$				$	48,119			$	48,119
Brian Piern		Chief Commercial Office			33	%			66	%		0$				$	49,500			$	49,500

Long-Term Equity Incentives

Equity-based incentive awards represent a variable element of compensation designed to align Lion's interests and those of its shareholders with those of its employees, including its Named Executive Officers. Equity awards reward performance and continued employment by an executive officer, with associated benefits to Lion of attracting and retaining employees. The Company believes that options, restricted share units ("RSUs") and performance share units ("PSUs") provide executive officers with a strong link to long-term corporate performance and the creation of shareholder value. As of the date hereof, stock option awards and RSUs are the two types of equity awards that Lion has granted to its Named Executive Officers. See "Long-Term Incentive Plans" below for vesting, settlement, and other terms of such awards.

Prior to adoption of the Omnibus Plan, Lion made equity-based awards to NEOs by issuing options under the Company's legacy equity-based incentive plan adopted in November 2017, as amended and restated in December 2019 and May 2021 (the "Legacy Plan"). Following adoption of the Omnibus Plan, equity-based awards made by Lion have been made under the Omnibus Plan, and no further grants were nor will be made under the Legacy Plan. The terms of Lion's equity plans are described below in the section entitled "Executive Compensation - Principal Elements of Compensation - Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIP)".

In connection with the grants of equity-based awards, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee determines the grant size and terms to be recommended to the Board of Directors. As part of their annual review of the Company's compensation practices, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors determine the precise structure of long-term incentive compensation. Option-based awards granted under the Omnibus Plan in Fiscal 2022 have a 10-year term and vest in four equal tranches each January 1^st following the date of grant. RSU-based awards granted in Fiscal 2022 vest entirely on the third employment anniversary date and can be settled in cash or Common Shares at the option of the Company promptly following vesting.

For Fiscal 2022, equity-based incentive awards granted by the Board of Directors to NEOs under the LTIP were divided in two types of awards, namely the Restricted Shares Units (RSUs) and Options, both weighted at 50%.

For Fiscal 2023, equity-based incentive awards granted by the Board of Directors to NEOs under the LTIP will be divided in two types of awards, namely the Restricted Shares Units (RSUs) and Options, both weighted at 50%.

Additional Information on Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIP)

The principal features of Lion's Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIP) are summarized below. As further discussed in the section "Executive Compensation - Discussion and Analysis - Principal Elements of Compensation" above, the value of the LTIP grants varies by the level of responsibility and the Named Executive Officer's performance as assessed by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors.

Omnibus Plan

General. Lion adopted its Omnibus Plan in May 2021 in connection with the listing of its Common Shares on the NYSE and the TSX. The Omnibus Plan provides different types of equity-based incentives to be granted to certain of the Company's directors, executive officers, employees and consultants, including options, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, collectively referred to as "awards". The Board of Directors is responsible for administering the Omnibus Plan and may delegate its responsibilities thereunder to a committee thereof or to a plan administrator. The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Omnibus Plan and each grant agreement evidencing the applicable awards.

The Board of Directors is entitled to, in its sole discretion, from time to time, designate the directors, executive officers, employees and consultants to whom awards will be granted and determine, if applicable, the number of Common Shares to be covered by such awards and the terms and conditions of such awards. Awards under the Omnibus Plan are generally made by the Board of Directors upon recommendation from the Human Resources and Compensation Committee.

Each award granted under the Omnibus Plan is personal to the participant and is not assignable or transferable by the participant, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or by the laws of succession of the domicile of the deceased participant.

39

Shares Available Under the Plan. The maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance, in the aggregate, under the Omnibus Plan and the Legacy Plan shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued and outstanding from time to time (calculated on a non-diluted basis). As of December 31, 2022, 218,079,962 Common Shares were issued and outstanding and, as such, a maximum of 21,807,996 Common Shares could be issued in the aggregate pursuant to awards granted under the Omnibus Plan and the Legacy Plan.

The number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan and the Legacy Plan will increase as the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares increases from time to time. Any Shares subject to an award which has been exercised or settled in Common Shares will again be available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan. Common Shares will not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Omnibus Plan with respect to any portion of an award that is settled in cash.

Subject to the insider participation limit set out below and the overall shares available under the Omnibus Plan described above, the Omnibus Plan does not limit the maximum number of Common Shares that any one person or company is entitled to receive under the Omnibus Plan.

Insider Participation Limit. The aggregate number of Common Shares issuable to insiders and their associates at any time under the Omnibus Plan, the Legacy Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement, will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, and the aggregate number of Common Shares issued to insiders and their associates under the Omnibus Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement within any one-year period will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

Options. All options granted under the Omnibus Plan will have an exercise price determined and approved by the Board of Directors at the time of grant, which will not be less than the market price of the Common Shares on the date of the grant. For purposes of the Omnibus Plan, the market price of the Common Shares as of a given date will generally be the volume weighted average trading price on the TSX (on the NYSE for U.S. based employees) for the five trading days immediately preceding such date.

Subject to any vesting conditions set forth in a participant's grant agreement, an option will be exercisable during a period established by the Board of Directors which will not be more than ten years from the grant of the option. The Omnibus Plan provides that the exercise period will automatically be extended if the date on which it is scheduled to terminate will fall during a blackout period. In such cases, the extended exercise period will terminate ten business days after the last day of the blackout period. The Board of Directors is entitled, in its discretion, to provide for procedures to allow a participant to elect to undertake a "cashless exercise" or a "net exercise" in respect of options.

Share Units. The Board of Directors is authorized to grant RSUs, PSUs and DSUs evidencing the right to receive Common Shares, cash based on the value of a Common Share or a combination thereof at some future time to eligible persons under the Omnibus Plan. Although DSUs may be available for grant to directors, executive officers, employees and consultants, Lion currently expects to only grant DSUs as a form of non-executive director compensation.

RSUs generally become vested, if at all, following a period of continuous employment. PSUs are similar to RSUs, but their vesting is, in whole or in part, conditioned on the attainment of specified performance metrics as may be determined by the Board of Directors. The terms and conditions of grants of RSUs and PSUs, including the quantity, type of award, grant date, vesting conditions, vesting periods, settlement date and other terms and conditions with respect to these awards will be set out in the participant's grant agreement. Subject to the achievement of the applicable vesting conditions, the settlement of an RSU or PSU will generally occur on or as soon as reasonably practicable following the vesting date. The settlement of a DSU will generally occur following a pre-established deferral period, which may be upon or following the participant ceasing to be a director, executive officer, employee or consultant of Lion, subject to satisfaction of any applicable conditions.

RSUs, PSUs and DSUs can be settled, at Lion's option, in cash or Common Shares which shares can be bought on secondary markets or issued from treasury.

DividendShare Units. If, as the case may be, dividends (other than share dividends) are paid on Common Shares, additional share unit equivalents may be automatically granted to each participant who holds RSUs, PSUs or DSUs on the record date for such dividends. If the Board of Directors provides for an award of RSUs, PSUs or DSUs to receive dividend share units, such units will be subject to the same vesting or other conditions applicable to the underlying RSUs, PSUs or DSUs, as applicable.

40

Recapitalization. In the event of any change in the capital structure or any other change affecting the Common Shares, the Board of Directors will equitably adjust the aggregate number or kind of shares that may be delivered under the Omnibus Plan, the number or kind of shares or other property (including cash) subject to an award, and the terms and conditions of awards.

In the event of any other change in the capital structure or business of Lion or other corporate transaction, the Board of Directors will be entitled, in its sole discretion, to make equitable adjustments to be made in such circumstances in order to maintain the economic rights of the participants in respect of awards under the Omnibus Plan.

Change of Control. In the event of a change of control, or other changes in Lion or the outstanding Common Shares by reason of a recapitalization, reorganization, arrangement, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange or other relevant change, the Board of Directors will have the power, in its sole discretion, to modify the terms of the Omnibus Plan and/or the awards granted thereunder, including to cause the power to accelerate vesting, waive any forfeiture conditions or otherwise modify or adjust any other condition or limitation regarding an award. The Board of Directors will be entitled, at its discretion, to accelerate the time of exercisability of an award, redeem in whole or in part outstanding awards, cancel awards that remain subject to a restricted period, and make such adjustments to awards then outstanding as the Board of Directors deems appropriate to reflect the change of control or other such event, including providing for the substitution, assumption, or continuation of awards by the successor company or a parent or subsidiary thereof.

Trigger Events. The Omnibus Plan provides that, except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, upon the termination for cause of a participant, any awards granted to such participant, whether vested or unvested, will automatically terminate and become void. The Omnibus Plan further provides that upon a participant's termination of employment without cause, or upon the resignation or retirement of a participant, (i) the Board of Directors may determine, in its sole discretion, that a portion of the PSUs, RSUs and/or DSUs granted to such participant will immediately vest (based on the vesting terms, including, if applicable, achievement of performance criteria, up to the termination date, as determined in the final and sole discretion of the Board of Directors), (ii) all unvested options will be forfeited, and (iii) vested options will remain exercisable until the earlier of 90 days (30 days for a resignation or retirement) after the termination date or the expiration date of the options. Finally, upon a participant's termination of employment as a result of death or disability, except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, (i) all rights, title and interest in the options granted to such participant which are unvested will continue to vest in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Plan and the participant's grant agreement, for a period of up to two years, (ii) vested options (including such options that vest during the period following the termination date) will remain exercisable until the earlier of (A) two years after the termination date, and (B) the expiry date of the options, and (iii) a portion of PSUs, RSUs and/or DSUs granted to the participant will immediately vest, as determined by the Board of Directors.

Amendments and Termination. The Omnibus Plan terminates in accordance with its terms on the 10^th anniversary of its effective date of May 6, 2021. The Board of Directors is entitled to suspend or terminate the Omnibus Plan at any time, or from time to time amend or revise the terms of the Omnibus Plan or of any granted award, provided that no such suspension, termination, amendment or revision will be made, (i) except in compliance with applicable laws and with the prior approval, if required, of the shareholders, the NYSE and/or TSX or any other regulatory body having authority over Lion, and (ii) if it would adversely alter or impair the rights of any participant, without the consent of the participant except as permitted by the terms of the Omnibus Plan.

The Board of Directors will be required to obtain shareholder approval to make the following amendments:

•

except for adjustments permitted by the Omnibus Plan, any reduction in the exercise price of an option or any cancellation of an option and replacement of such option with an option with a lower exercise price, to the extent such reduction or replacement benefits an insider;

•

any increase in the maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Omnibus Plan, including any amendment to the maximum number of Common Shares expressed as a fixed percentage;

•

any increase in the maximum number of Common Shares that may be issuable to insiders pursuant to the insider participation limit;

41

•

any extension of the term of an award beyond its original expiry date, to the extent such amendment benefits an insider;

•

any amendment which increases the maximum number of Common Shares that may be issuable upon exercises of options issued under the Omnibus Plan as incentive stock options intended to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986;

•

any amendment to the Omnibus Plan's amendment provisions; and

•

any amendment which modifies the definition of eligible participant used for purposes of determining eligibility for the grant of any award under the Omnibus Plan.

Except as specifically provided in a grant agreement approved by the Board of Directors, awards granted under the Omnibus Plan will generally not be transferable other than by will or the laws of succession.

Legacy Plan

General. The Company has previously granted options to acquire Common Shares to certain directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Legacy Option Plan. The Legacy Plan was originally adopted in November 2017, and subsequently amended and restated in December 2019. In May 2021, Lion made certain amendments to the Legacy Plan to take into account, among other things, the fact that the Common Shares were traded on the NYSE and the TSX. The options issued under the Legacy Plan were granted at exercise prices equal to or exceeding the fair market value of the underlying shares at the time of initial grant. Following adoption of the Omnibus Plan, no further awards were nor will be made under the Legacy Plan; however, awards outstanding under the Legacy Plan continue in full effect in accordance with their existing terms. The Legacy Plan includes terms and conditions required by the TSX for an equity incentive plan such as restrictions relating to amendments of the plan and restrictions on insider participation.

The Board of Directors administers the Legacy Plan and has full authority and discretion to administer and interpret the Legacy Plan and to prescribe such rules and regulations and make such other determinations as it deems necessary or useful for the administration of the Legacy Plan.

No option to acquire Common Shares under the Legacy Plan is assignable or transferable by the optionee other than by will or under the law of succession.

Share Reserve. The maximum number of Common Shares reserved for issuance under the Legacy Plan is 12,854,615. As discussed under the section entitled "Omnibus Plan" above, the maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance, in the aggregate, under the Omnibus Plan and the Legacy Plan shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued and outstanding from time to time (calculated on a non-diluted basis).

Capital Reorganization. In the event of any reorganization, change in the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger, or exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, an equitable adjustment will be made by the Board of Directors in the number and/or kind of shares subject to outstanding options under the Legacy Plan and in the exercise price of such outstanding options.

Trigger Events; Change of Control. The Legacy Plan provides that certain events, including termination for cause, resignation, termination other than for cause, retirement, death or disability, may trigger forfeiture or reduce the vesting period, where applicable, of outstanding stock options. In the event of a change of control, the Board of Directors will have the right to accelerate the vesting of any unvested options in connection with such change of control. Except as otherwise set forth in any document evidencing a grant of any option, in the event of any change of control transaction in which there is an acquiring or surviving entity, the Board of Directors may provide for substitute or replacement options of similar value from, or the assumption of outstanding options by, the acquiring or surviving entity or one or more affiliates of such entity, any such substitution, replacement or assumption to be on such terms as the Board of Directors in good faith determines. The Board of Directors will be entitled to, in its sole discretion, terminate any or all stock option outstanding, provided that any such stock option that have vested will remain exercisable until consummation of such change of control.

42

The following table sets out the number of stock options, RSUs and DSUs which could result in the issuance of Common Shares from treasury, in each case, granted during Fiscal 2022, Fiscal 2021 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 ("Fiscal 2020") and expressed as percentage of the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding for Fiscal 2022 (i.e. the burn rate).

		Fiscal Year			Number of Stock Options, RSUs and DSUs Granted(1)			Weighted Average Number of Outstanding Common Shares			Burn Rate(1)
Omnibus Plan			2022				558,697				193,113,983				0.29	%
		2021				294,854				162,245,092				0.18	%
		2020				-				110,551,314				-
Legacy Option Plan			2022				-				193,113,983				-
		2021				-				162,245,092				-
		2020				412,890				110,551,314				0.37	%

(1)	The burn rate is calculated by dividing the number of options, RSUs and DSUs granted during the applicable fiscal year by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding for the applicable fiscal year.

As at December 31, 2022, 845,977 stock options, 301,091 DSUs and 297,658 RSUs had been granted or issued under the Omnibus Plan, and there were 8,701,208 stock options outstanding under the Legacy Plan, such that a maximum of 11,662,062 Common Shares remained issuable in the aggregate under the Omnibus Plan and the Legacy Plan, representing 5.35% of the total number of then outstanding Common Shares.

Other Benefits and Pension Arrangements

The Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in benefits available generally to salaried employees, including health, dental, life and disability insurance benefits on the same terms as all other employees. Among other benefits, Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate on a voluntary basis in the pension arrangements generally offered to the employees of the Company and on the same terms. Canadian based NEOs can contribute to the pension arrangement which is the Employer Group Registered Retirement Savings Plan (GRRSP) and the Employer will pay 50% of the NEO's contribution, up to a maximum of 1% of the NEO's base salary. US based NEOs can contribute to the pension arrangement which is the Employer 401K Plan and the Employer will pay 50% of the NEO's contribution, up to a maximum of 1% of the NEO's base salary.

Hedging / Anti-Hedging Policy

The NEOs and the directors are, under the terms of the Company's insider trading policy, prohibited from engaging in any hedging or monetization activities including, without limitation, any use of financial instruments (such as options, puts, calls, forward contracts, futures, swaps, collars or units of exchange funds) or any other transactions that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in the market value of any Common Shares or other Lion securities beneficially owned by an NEO or director, directly or indirectly, or in the value of any equity-based compensation awards of an NEO or director (such as stock options, deferred share units, restricted share units and performance share units).

Executive Succession Planning

The Board, in assistance with the Human Resources and Compensation Committee, is responsible to ensure that a succession plan is in place for the Company's executive officers. The objective of this process is to identify individuals who are able to move into key leadership roles not only in the normal course of the Company's growth but also in the event of an unplanned vacancy, and to assist these individuals in developing their skills and competencies. The Board also reviews how to leverage succession planning as a tool to ensure progress in the diversity of the management team and how the executive succession planning process itself can be improved.

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee receives periodic updates from management on this leadership succession planning process, discusses succession scenarios, assesses the readiness of potential candidates to fill senior leadership roles and identifies roles for which an external talent search may be required. The Board also meets with members of the executive management team through their participation in meetings and presentations to the Board, as well as occasionally at informal meetings throughout the year, which allow Board members to engage with members of the management team who are potential future leaders of the Company.

43

Clawback

The Company expects to adopt a clawback policy regarding accounting restatements in accordance with new rules adopted by the SEC once such rules are implemented by the NYSE. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee is closely monitoring the implementation of the rules by the NYSE and, as required, expects to adopt a clawback policy no later than 60 days following the date on which the applicable NYSE listing standards become effective.

Compensation Risk Management

The Board and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee consider the implications of the risks associated with Lion's compensation policies and practices as part of their respective responsibilities related to overseeing matters related to executive and director compensation.

The Company's current compensation structure attempts to ensure that compensation and incentive plans do not promote unwanted behavior and unnecessary risk-taking based on, amongst other things:

•

a reasonable balance of fixed and variable compensation, and an appropriate mix of share-based compensation and short and long-term compensation;

•

qualitative and quantitative metrics used to form a balanced scorecard to determine the amounts of awards to NEOs with respect to the STIP and the LTIP;

•

share ownership requirements requiring outside directors to maintain a meaningful equity ownership in the Company;

•

a prohibition on the hedging of equity-based compensation;

•

policies and practices being generally applied on a consistent basis to all executive officers;

•

services rendered, when needed, by external consultants ensures that the Human Resources and Compensation Committee gets an independent opinion on Lion's executive compensation program;

•

an annual review of executive compensation to ensure continued relevance, effectiveness and alignment with the Company's compensation objectives; and

•

a Human Resources and Compensation Committee composed of a majority of independent directors.

After considering the overall policies and practices applicable to all employees, including the NEOs, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee did not identify any risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and practices that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Performance Results

The following graph compares the Company's cumulative total shareholder return to the S&P/TSX Composite Index, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and considering a $100 investment on May 7, 2021, being the date the Common Shares began trading on the TSX and the NYSE.

The trend shown by the above graph shows a cumulative total shareholder return on an investment in the Common Shares since May 7, 2021 that is below that of an investment on the S&P/TSX Composite Index. However, there has been significant volatility during that period. Fluctuating investor sentiment relating to the future prospects of electric vehicle manufacturers, especially manufacturers who became publicly listed in the last few years, continues to fuel considerable speculation for the Common Shares and the shares of other electric vehicle manufacturers. As the Company continues to scale its operations, it is critical for the Company to ensure that its compensation structure allows it to attract, retain and motivate a highly talented team of executive officers that will be essential to the execution of the Company's business plan and growth strategy, including the ramp-up of its Saint-Jérôme facility and the establishment of manufacturing operations and ramp-up of production capacity at the Company's U.S. manufacturing facility located in Joliet, Illinois and its battery manufacturing plant located in Mirabel, Quebec. While the Board of Directors recognizes shareholders' perspective and certain of the Company's shareholders' focus on share price performance, the Board's approach to executive compensation is aligned with the Company's strategy of focusing on long-term value over short-term results, especially given the volatile industry section in which the Company operates. In Fiscal 2022, the total executive compensation package of the NEOs was slightlyadjusted to bring compensation closer to market median based on the Company's Comparator Group. While the total compensation package established by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee was only subject to a modest increase, total executive compensation as disclosed in the summary compensation table for Fiscal 2022 was higher in certain cases than in Fiscal 2021 as a result of certain STIP payouts and LTIP awards made in Fiscal 2022, whereas no such payouts and grants were made in Fiscal 2021. Payouts under the STIP were solely the result of NEOs achieving pre-determined personal goals aligned with the Company's business plan and growth strategy that were focused on long-term value over short term results, as no payouts were made with respect to the business performance metrics component of the STIP.

As described in this Circular, the compensation policy for the Company's NEOs is primarily tied to financial performance of the business and the achievement of the personal objectives, and not specifically to Common Share performance. As a result, the use of the Common Share trading price on the TSX may continue to be an incomplete indicator of the executives' performance and the general corporate performance of the Company, and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee does not believe that it would be appropriate for NEO's compensation to depend uniquely on the Common Shares trading price trend.

The base salaries, share-based awards, option-based awards, annual incentive and all other compensation of Messrs. Bedard, Brunet, Duquette and Poulin are paid in Canadian dollars. Mr. Piern's compensation is paid in U.S. dollars. Except where otherwise noted, the amounts reported in the above table for Messrs. Bedard, Brunet, Duquette and Poulin have been converted to U.S. dollars (i) in the case of amounts relating to Fiscal 2022, at an exchange rate of C$1.00 = US$0.7383, being the daily rate of exchange posted by the Bank of Canada for conversion of Canadian dollars into U.S. dollars on December 30, 2022, (ii) in the case of amounts relating to Fiscal 2021, at an exchange rate of C$1.00 = US$0.7888, being the daily rate of exchange posted by the Bank of Canada for conversion of Canadian dollars into U.S. dollars on December 31, 2021, and (iii) in the case of amounts relating to Fiscal 2020, at an exchange rate of C$1.00 = US$0.7854, being the daily rate of exchange posted by the Bank of Canada for conversion of Canadian dollars into U.S. dollars on December 31, 2020.

(2)

The amounts reported in this column represent the earned base salary received by each NEO in the applicable fiscal year. For Fiscal 2022, the earned base salary received for NEOs who are paid in Canadian dollars was C$618,961 for Mr. Bedard, C$434,808 for Mr. Brunet, C$358,077 for Mr. Duquette and C$347,846 for Mr. Poulin.

(3)

The amounts reported in this column represent the grant date fair value of RSUs granted to NEOs under the Omnibus Plan. The grant date fair value was determined in compliance with IFRS 2, Share-based Payment and based on the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX or the NYSE, as applicable,for the five days immediately preceding the grant date. During Fiscal 2021, the RSU grants reported in this column were made to each of Mr. Duquette and Mr. Piern as an inducement for each of them to enter into a full-time employment agreement with the Company.

46

(4)

The amounts reported in this column represent the estimated grant date fair value of options granted under the Omnibus Plan. During Fiscal 2021, the option grants reported in this column were made to each of Mr. Duquette and Mr. Piern as an inducement for each of them to enter into a full-time employment agreement with the Company. The amounts reported in this column do not represent cash received by the optionees, and the actual value realized upon the future vesting and exercise of such options may be less or greater than the grant date fair values indicated in this column. As of December 31, 2022, none of the options granted to NEOs during Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021 were in-the-money. Amounts shown have been calculated using the Black-Scholes method based on the volume weighted average trading price on the TSX or the NYSE, as applicable, for the five trading days prior to the grant date. The Black-Scholes method is used to estimate the grant date fair value of option-based awards because it is the most commonly used share-based award pricing model and is considered to produce a reasonable estimate of fair value. The assumptions used to measure the fair value of the options granted during Fiscal 2022 under the Black-Scholes method at the grant date were as follows:

		May 13, 2022 Canadian Grant			May 13, 2022 US Grant			May 20, 2022 Canadian Grant
Dividend yield			0	%			0	%			0	%
Expected volatility			40	%			40	%			40	%
Risk-free interest rate			2.77				2.86				2.77
Expected option term			7.5				7.5				7.5
Black-Scholes Value			2.437				2.543				2.483

(1)	Represents the number of vested and unvested unexercised options.

(2)

All options included in this table, to the exception of options granted to Mr. Piern's, have an exercise price in Canadian dollars. The conversion price for such options has been converted to U.S. dollars at an exchange rate of C$1.00 = US$0.7383, being the daily rate of exchange posted by the Bank of Canada for conversion of Canadian dollars into U.S. dollars on December 30, 2022.

(3)

Options are in-the-money if the market value of the Common Shares underlying the options is greater than the option exercise price. The value shown is equal to the excess, if any, of the Common Share closing price on the TSX or NYSE (being C$3.04 and $2.24, respectively), as applicable, on December 30, 2022, over the option's exercise price. The actual value realized will be based on the actual in-the-money value upon exercise of the options, if any. The options vest in 25% tranches over a period of four years beginning on (i) the first anniversary date of the date of hire with respect to options granted in Fiscal 2021 to Mr. Duquette and Mr. Piern or (ii) the first anniversary date of the date of grant with respect to options granted to Mr. Bedard, Mr. Brunet and Mr. Poulin for grants before Fiscal 2022 and (iii) each January 1st of the following years for grants in Fiscal 2022.

DISCLOSURE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

The Canadian securities regulatory authorities have issued corporate governance guidelines pursuant to National Policy 58-201-Corporate Governance Guidelines (the "Corporate Governance Guidelines"), together with certain related disclosure requirements pursuant to National Instrument 58-101-Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101"). The Corporate Governance Guidelines are recommended as "best practices" for issuers to follow. Lion recognizes that good corporate governance plays an important role in its overall success and in enhancing shareholder value and, accordingly, Lion has adopted certain corporate governance policies and practices which reflect its consideration of the recommended Corporate Governance Guidelines. The disclosure set out below describes the Company's approach to corporate governance.

Board of Directors

Board of Directors Size

The Board of Directors is currently comprised of ten directors, all of which will stand for re-election, except for Latasha Akoma and Dane L. Parker, who will stand for election for the first time at the Meeting. Shareholders may vote for each proposed director nominee individually. See "Election of Directors" - "Description of Proposed Director Nominees". The Board of Directors is of the view that its size and its composition are adequate and allow for the efficient functioning of the Board of Directors as a decision-making body.

Independence

Under the NYSE Listing Rules, an independent director means a person who, in the opinion of Lion's Board, has no material relationship with Lion. Under NI 58-101, a director is considered to be independent if he or she is independent within the meaning of Section 1.4 of National Instrument 52-110-Audit Committees ("NI 52-110"). Pursuant to NI 52-110, an independent director is a director who is free from any direct or indirect material relationship with Lion which could, in the view of Lion's Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of such director's independent judgement. Lion's Board agrees with this approach to assessing director independence.

Based on information provided by each director and nominee director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, Lion's Board has determined that as at April 19, 2023, seven out of the ten current directors are considered independent as that term is defined under the NYSE Listing Rules and NI 58-101, namely Mss. Latasha Akoma, Sheila C. Bair and Ann L. Payne and Messrs. Dane L. Parker, Michel Ringuet, Lorenzo Roccia and Pierre Wilkie. In making this determination, Lion's Board considered the current and prior relationships that each such non-employee director has with Lion and all other facts and circumstances that Board deemed relevant in determining their independence.

Furthermore, all members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors are considered independent as that term is defined under the NYSE Listing Rules and NI 58-101 and each committee is chaired by an independent chair.

Marc Bedard is considered non-independent due to the fact that he acts as the CEO-Founder of Lion. Pierre-Olivier Perras is considered non-independent under the NYSE Listing Rules and NI 58-101 due to his relationship with Power Sustainable and Power Energy, and Pierre Larochelle is considered non-independent under the NYSE Listing Rules and NI 58-101 due to his past relationship with Power Sustainable and Power Energy.

Nine of the ten current members of the Board are not members of Lion's management. Lion's Board believes that, except for Mr. Bedard, all of the individuals who serve on Lion's Board are independent of management, and have no other relationships that could reasonably interfere with the exercise of their independent judgment in discharging their duties to Lion. The following table shows which directors or proposed directors are not considered independent within the meaning of the NYSE Listing Rules and NI 58-101, and the reason for such non-independence of individual directors.

52

NAME		WITHIN THE NYSE LISTING RULES AND NI 58-101		REASON FOR NON-INDEPENDENCE
	Independent		Not Independent
Latasha Akoma		✓
Marc Bedard				✓		Mr. Bedard is not independent as he is the CEO-Founder of the Company.
Sheila C. Bair		✓
Pierre Larochelle				✓		Mr. Larochelle is not independent due to his past relationship with Power Sustainable. See "Election of Directors" - "Description of Proposed Director Nominees".
Dane L. Parker		✓
Ann L. Payne		✓
Pierre-Olivier Perras				✓		Mr. Perras is not independent as he is an executive of Power Energy. See "Election of Directors" - "Description of Proposed Director Nominees".
Michel Ringuet		✓
Lorenzo Roccia		✓
Pierre Wilkie		✓

Lion's Board believes that given its size and structure, it is able to facilitate independent judgement in carrying out its responsibilities. To enhance such independent judgement, the independent members of Lion's Board may meet in the absence of non-independent directors and members of management. The independent directors of the Company consider, at each meeting, whether an in camera meeting without the non-independent directors and members of management would be appropriate, and may hold an in camera meeting where appropriate. In addition, any independent director may, at any time, if considered necessary to facilitate open and candid discussion among the independent directors, call a meeting or request an in camera session without management and non-independent directors. During Fiscal 2022, the Board of Directors held five in camera sessions, and the Audit Committee held four in camera sessions where members met without non-independent directors and members of management.

In addition, considering that the Chairman of the Board of Directors is considered non-independent, Mr. Michel Ringuet was appointed by the Board of Directors to serve as independent Lead Director in order to ensure appropriate leadership for the independent directors. Lion's Board adopted a written position description for the Lead Director. His primary functions are to provide leadership to the directors to enhance the effectiveness and independence of the Board of Directors, to facilitate the efficient functioning of the Board of Directors, to ensure that there is an effective relationship between management and the members of the Board of Directors and to advise the Chairman of the Board of Directors on the appropriate flow of information to the Board of Directors.

For purposes of managing any potential conflicts of interest, a director who has a material interest in a matter before Lion's Board or any committee on which he or she serves is required to disclose such interest as soon as the director becomes aware of it. In situations where a director has a material interest in a matter to be considered by Lion's Board or any committee on which he or she serves, such director may be required to absent himself or herself from the meeting while discussions and voting with respect to the matter are taking place. Directors are also required to comply with the relevant provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Québec) regarding conflicts of interest.

Directorship of Other Reporting Issuers

Some members of the Company's Board of Directors are also members of the boards of other public companies. See "Business of the Meeting - Election of Directors - Description of Proposed Director Nominees". The Board of Directors has not adopted a director interlock policy but is keeping informed of other public directorships held by its members. As at April 19, 2023, none of the Company's directors served together on any other public company's board of directors.

53

Mandate of the Board of Directors

Lion's Board is responsible for supervising the management of Lion's business and affairs, including providing guidance and strategic oversight to management. The Board of Directors holds regularly scheduled meetings as well as ad hoc meetings from time to time. Lion's Board has adopted a formal mandate which was last reviewed and amended in August 2022 and includes the following:

•

ensuring a strategic planning process is in place and reviewing, on at least an annual basis, the principal business objectives for the Company and monitoring the Company's success in implementing the strategy and achieving its goals;

•

appointing the Chief Executive Officer of the company and developing the corporate goals and objectives that the Chief Executive Officer is responsible for meeting, and reviewing the performance of the Chief Executive Officer against such goals and objectives;

•

overseeing communications with shareholders, other stakeholders, analysts and the public, including the adoption of measures for receiving feedback from stakeholders and reporting to shareholders as necessary; and

•

monitoring the implementation of procedures, policies and initiatives relating to corporate governance, risk management, corporate social responsibility, health and safety, ethics and integrity.

Under its mandate, the Board of Directors is entitled, among other things, to delegate certain matters it is responsible for to Board of Directors' committees. The text of the Board of Director's mandate is attached to this Circular as Schedule A.

Position Descriptions

Chair of the Board of Directors and Committee Chairs

Lion's Board adopted written position descriptions for the Chairman of Lion's Board and the chair of the board committees. Their primary roles are to manage the affairs of Lion's Board or of such relevant committee, including ensuring Lion's Board or such committee is organized properly, functions effectively and meets its obligations and responsibilities. Each committee has a chair that conducts the affairs of the applicable committee in accordance with the charter of such committee. In addition, Lion's Board adopted a written position description for the Lead Director of the Board of Directors as further described in "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices-Board of Directors-Independence".

Lion's Board and CEO-Founder have not developed at this time a written position description for the CEO-Founder or for other executive officers. The role of the CEO-Founder is delineated on the basis of customary practice. Lion's Board considers that the role and responsibilities of the CEO-Founder are to develop the company's strategic plans and policies and recommending such plans and policies to Lion's Board, provide executive leadership, oversee a comprehensive operational planning and budgeting process, supervise day-to-day management, report relevant matters to Lion's Board, facilitate communications between Lion's Board and the senior management team, and identify business risks and opportunities and manage them accordingly, and has communicated the same to the CEO-Founder.

Nomination of Directors

Pursuant to the Nomination Rights Agreement, to the extent that any of Power Energy and 9368-2672 and their respective permitted holders (including their respective affiliates) collectively hold at least 20% of the outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis), such party is entitled to designate a number of director nominees, between two and four nominees, equal to the product of (rounding to the nearest whole number) (i) the percentage of the outstanding Common Shares held by it (on a non-diluted basis) multiplied by (ii) the size of Lion's Board. In addition, 9368-2672 will, for so long as it and its affiliates collectively hold at least 5% of the outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis), be entitled to designate (i) for so long as Marc Bedard serves as chief executive officer of Lion, one director nominee (in addition to Marc Bedard, who will be appointed to Lion's Board for so long as he serves as chief executive officer thereof) and (ii) at any other time, Marc Bedard as a director nominee. See "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices - Nomination Rights Agreement" for a summary description of the rights contained in the Nomination Rights Agreement.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for Board and committee succession planning and for making annual recommendations to the Board regarding the size and composition of its committees. It also proposes new nominees for election as director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the competencies and skills that the Board considers

54

to be necessary for the Board as a whole to possess, the competencies and skills that the Board considers each existing director to possess, and the competencies and skills each new nominee will bring to the boardroom in making recommendations for director nominations. The Board encourages an objective nomination process by, among other things, reviewing the criteria employed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in conducting the nomination process and by reviewing any potential conflicts in order to ensure the integrity of the process.

Board Evaluation

Lion's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing the evaluation of Lion's Board and its committees and, in that respect, the Committee assesses the contribution of each director on an ongoing basis and in light of the opportunities and risks facing the Company, as well as the skills and competencies requirement of directors. Moreover, each director is required, annually, to complete a confidential written evaluation with respect to the performance of the Board and the performance of its Committees.

Orientation and Continuing Education

The Company recognizes ongoing director education as an important component of good governance. Directors ensure to be informed about current best practices, emerging trends in corporate governance and relevant regulatory developments. From time to time, as appropriate, Lion's Board holds meetings at or near an operating site or other facility of the Company. In Fiscal 2022, the Directors visited Lion's facilities in St-Jérôme (Quebec), Joliet (Illinois) and Mirabel (Quebec). Directors also interacted with executive and senior management at every Board meeting and received regular and extensive presentations on matters of strategic importance to Lion's business, including presentations on its production and procurement processes, Lion's value proposition, business growth strategy, sustainability initiatives, cybersecurity and regulatory matters relevant to Lion's business.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing director continuing education designed to maintain or enhance the skills and abilities of the directors and to ensure that their knowledge and understanding of Lion's business remains current. The chair of each committee is responsible for coordinating orientation and continuing director development programs relating to the committee's mandate.

Pursuant to the Company's orientation program, each new director meets upon his or her election to the Board of Directors with the Chairman, individual directors and members of the senior management to familiarize himself or herself with the nature and operation of the Company and its business, the role of Lion's Board and its committees as well as the expected contribution that an individual director is expected to make. A new director is also presented with the Board of Directors policies and procedures, the Company's current strategic plan, organizational structure, operations, governance and compensation plans, financial plan and capital plan, the most recent core public disclosure documents and other materials relating to key business issues. A new director is also invited to visit selected facilities.

Risk Management

The Board of Directors believes a business strategy should include sound risk management practices. By understanding the most critical risks facing the Company's business, the Board of Directors can proactively put in place systems to mitigate those risks while pursuing any opportunities they present. The Board of Directors provides risk oversight as a whole and through its committees based on the Company's risk governance framework, which sets out specific processes for the continuous assessment of risks to the business. These include risks related to the Company's operations, finances, compliance, cybersecurity and environmental, social and governance (ESG). You can read more about each committee's responsibilities beginning on page 57.

Board Oversight of ESG Matters

While the Board of Directors ultimately has oversight of the Company's ESG policies and practices and reviews and considers ESG matters on a periodic basis as needed, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is the committee of the board that has been charged with periodically reviewing and making recommendations in respect of the Company's ESG policies and practices. With the assistance of management, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the implementation of procedures and initiatives relating to ESG and health and safety rules and regulations in light of the ESG issues the Company may face from time to time, with a view to ensure that the Company can mitigate risks and capitalize on related opportunities to the extent possible. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also receives periodically reports from management on ESG matters.

55

The Audit Committee, as the board committee responsible for identifying risks or exposures faced by the Company and discussing with management the steps taken to minimize such risk or exposure, also assists the Board of Directors in overseeing ESG matters and assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of management's ability to monitor, manage and mitigate ESG risks.

Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is charged under its charter with selecting candidates for election as independent directors. See "Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices - Board of Directors Committees - Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee".

Lion's Board has not adopted director term limits or other automatic mechanisms of board renewal. The Company believes that imposing a term limit or an arbitrary retirement age would discount the value of experience and continuity of board service, and may have the unfortunate effect of forcing the retirement of a director who has gained extensive knowledge of the Company's business and affairs and who is making a valuable contribution to the Board and relevant committees he or she serves on. Rather than adopting formal term limits, mandatory age-related retirement policies and other mechanisms of board renewal, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee focuses on overall and individual board and director assessments (formal and informal) in light of the opportunities and risks facing the Company and seeking to maintain the composition of Lion's Board in a way that provides, in the judgement of Lion's Board, the best mix of skills and experience to provide for Lion's overall stewardship.

At the same time, the Board of Directors recognizes that even if listing of the Common Shares on the TSX and NYSE is relatively recent and the majority of the members of the Board have been on the Board for less than three (3) years, there is value in refreshing board membership from time to time to encourage diversity and to make available to the Board new perspectives and viewpoints, as well as complementary experience and skills. The Nominating and Governance Committee annually reviews the size, composition and effectiveness of the Board. In Fiscal 2022, this exercise resulted in the Board, upon recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, increasing the size of the Board size to 10 directors with a view to enhance composition and to increase the breadth and depth of expertise of the Board. As a result, three (3) new directors were appointed to the Board, namely Latasha Akoma, Dane L. Parker and Ann L. Payne.

Insider Trading Policy

Lion has adopted an insider trading policy which prohibits its executives, other employees and directors from: (i) trading in its securities while in possession of material undisclosed information about Lion; and (ii) entering into certain derivative-based transactions that involve, directly or indirectly, securities of Lion, during a restricted period.

Diversity

Lion recognizes the importance and benefit of having a board of directors and senior management composed of highly talented and experienced individuals having regard to the need to foster and promote diversity among board members and senior management with respect to attributes such as gender, ethnicity and other factors. In support of this goal, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will, when identifying candidates to nominate for election to Lion's Board or appoint as senior management or in its review of senior management succession planning and talent management:

•

consider individuals who are highly qualified, based on their talents, experience, functional expertise and personal skills, character and qualities having regard to Lion's current and future plans and objectives, as well as anticipated regulatory and market developments;

•

consider criteria that promote diversity, including with regard to gender, ethnicity, and other dimensions;

•

consider the level of representation of women on its board of directors and in senior management positions, along with other markers of diversity, when making recommendations for nominees to Lion's Board or for appointment as senior management and in general with regard to succession planning for Lion's Board and senior management; and

•

as required, engage qualified independent external advisors to assist Lion's Board in conducting its search for candidates that meet the board of directors' criteria regarding skills, experience and diversity.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the level of representation of directors from diverse backgrounds on the Board of Directors by overseeing the selection process and ensuring that diverse candidates, including women and racial and ethnic minorities, are included in the list of candidates proposed to the Board of Directors as potential directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also sets measurable objectives for achieving diversity. In connection with these objectives, the Board of Directors expressed in 2022 its objective to achieve the following two targets prior to this year's Meeting: (i) at least 30% of directors on the Board of Directors should be women and (ii) at least one director should be a minority. Lion currently has three (3) women on its board of directors, representing 30% of Lion's directors. Three (3) of the ten (10) directors nominees being proposed for election at this year's Meeting are women and two (2) of the ten (10) directors nominees self-indentify as members of a visible minority. Assuming the election of all nominated directors at the Meeting, women would represent 30% of the Board of Directors (in line with the objective set in 2022) and members that self-identify as visible minorities would represent 20% of the Board of Directors (exceeding the objective set in 2022).

The Company is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion at all levels of the organization and takes into account the representation of women and the importance of diversity when filling executive level positions. Because of the limited size of the executive team and the need to ensure that recruitment efforts and appointments are primarily based on the merits of the individuals and the needs of the Company at the relevant time, the Board of Directors has decided not to set targets regarding the representation of women in executive officer positions. However, the Board of Directors is committed to equality of opportunity and to the recruitment, retention, development and promotion of qualified female candidates among its workforce, including at the highest levels. As at the date hereof, Lion currently has one woman as executive officer, representing 12.5% of Lion's senior management team.

The foregoing rights of Power Energy and 9368-2672 to so designate director nominees will be submitted for approval of the Shareholders at the first annual meeting of the Shareholders to be held following May 6, 2026, and at every fifth annual meeting of the Shareholders thereafter.

Majority Voting Policy

The Company does not employ the practice of "slate voting" and, as such, at meetings of shareholders where directors are to be elected, shareholders of the Company are entitled to vote FOR, or to WITHHOLD from voting, separately for each director nominee. The Company ensures that the number of shares voted in favor or withheld from voting for each director nominee is recorded and promptly disclosed after the Meeting.

The Board of Directors adopted a majority voting policy in order to promote enhanced director accountability. The policy stipulates that, in an "uncontested election" (as defined below) of directors, any nominee for director who receives a greater number of votes withheld from his or her election than votes for his or her election will promptly tender his or her resignation to the Chair of the Board of Directors following the shareholder's meeting. Following receipt of such resignation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider such resignation, and recommend to the Board whether or not to accept it.

62

The Board shall act on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation within 90 days after the date of the relevant shareholders' meeting. The Board will accept the resignation absent exceptional circumstances that would warrant the director to continue to serve on the Board. A press release disclosing the Board of Directors' determination (and the reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable) shall be promptly issued. A copy of such press release shall be sent concurrently to the TSX and the NYSE. The resignation will become effective when accepted by the Board of Directors.

If a resignation is accepted, the Board of Directors may, in accordance with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Québec), the constating documents of the Company, applicable securities laws and regulation and applicable agreements, including the Nomination Rights Agreement, appoint a new director to fill any vacancy created by the resignation, reduce the size of the Board, leave any vacancy open until the next annual general meeting of the shareholders, call a special meeting of shareholders at which nominees will be presented to fill any vacancies, or any combination of the above.

The policy only applies in circumstances involving an uncontested election of directors. For purposes of the majority voting policy, an "uncontested election" means an election where the number of nominees for directors equals the number of directors to be elected.

Advance Notice Requirements for Director Nominations

The Company's by-laws contain an advance notice provision (the "Advance Notice By-law") for the purpose of providing shareholders, directors and management of the Company with a clear framework for nominating directors of the Company in connection with any annual or special meeting of shareholders.

The purpose of the Advance Notice By-law is to (i) ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient time and information with respect to all nominees to make appropriate deliberations and register an informed vote; and (ii) facilitate an orderly and efficient process for annual or special meetings of shareholders of the Company. The Advance Notice By-law fixes the deadlines by which holders of record of Common Shares must submit director nominations to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in a timely written notice to the Company for any director nominee to be eligible for election at such annual or special meeting of shareholders. In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders (including an annual and special meeting) a notice of nomination by a nominating shareholder must be made not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting, provided, however, that in the event that the meeting is to be held on a date that is less than fifty (50) days after the date (the "Notice Date") on which the first public announcement of the date of the meeting was made, notice by a nominating shareholder must be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) 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 also called for other purposes), a notice of nomination by a nominating shareholder must be made not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the meeting was made.

The by-laws of the Company are available under the Company's profiles on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Indemnification and Insurance

The Company has implemented a director and officer insurance program and has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements generally require that the Company indemnify and hold the indemnitees harmless to the greatest extent permitted by law for liabilities arising out of the indemnitees' service to the Company as directors and executive officers, provided that the indemnitees acted honestly and in good faith and in a manner the indemnitees reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the Company's best interests and, with respect to criminal and administrative actions or proceedings that are enforced by monetary penalty, the indemnitees had no reasonable grounds to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
