NAN Shareholders are encouraged not to attend the Meeting in person, particularly if they are experiencing any of the described COVID-19 symptoms. As always, the Company encourages NAN Shareholders to vote their shares prior to the Meeting by following the voting instructions in the accompanying Information Circular.

The Company may take additional precautionary measures in relation to the Meeting in response to further developments with the COVID-19 outbreak. In the event it is not possible or advisable to hold the Meeting in person, the Company will announce alternative arrangements for the Meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the Meeting entirely by electronic means, telephone or other communication facilities.

The accompanying Information Circular provides additional information relating to the matters to be dealt with at the Meeting and is deemed to form part of this Notice of Meeting. The full text of the Resolutions is attached as Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular.

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote "FOR" the Resolutions.

The record date for the determination of NAN Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting is the close of business on May 16, 2022 (the "Record Date"). Only NAN Shareholders whose names have been entered in the register of NAN Shareholders as of the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting.

Each NAN Share entitled to be voted at the Meeting will entitle the holder thereof to one vote at the Meeting.

A NAN Shareholder may attend the Meeting in person or may be represented by proxy. NAN Shareholders who are unable to be present at the Meeting are requested to complete, date, sign and return, in the envelope provided for that purpose, the accompanying form of proxy (the "Proxy") for use at the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. To be effective, the Proxy must be received by our transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. (Attention: Proxy Department, by mail: 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2Y1), by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on Tuesday, June 21, 2022, or no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) prior to the time to which the Meeting may be adjourned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Chair of the Meeting has the discretion to accept proxies received after such deadline. NAN Shareholders may use the Internet (www.investorvote.com) or the telephone (1-866-732-VOTE (8683)) to transmit voting instructions on or before the date and time noted above, and may also use the Internet to appoint a proxyholder to attend and vote on behalf of the NAN Shareholder at the Meeting. For information regarding voting or appointing a proxy, see the form of Proxy for NAN Shareholders and/or the section entitled "Proxy Related Information" in the accompanying Information Circular.

- iii -

Registered NAN Shareholders who validly dissent in respect of the Continuance Resolution will be entitled to be paid the fair value of their NAN Shares. A NAN Shareholder's right to dissent is described in the Information Circular. Failure to strictly comply with the dissent procedures set forth Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA in the case of the Continuance Resolution, will result in the loss of any dissent right. Please see Appendix "E" – Dissent Rights Under Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) to the accompanying Information Circular.

If a NAN Shareholder received more than one Proxy because such holder owns NAN Shares registered in different names or addresses, each form of Proxy should be completed and returned.

If you are a non-registered holder of NAN Shares and have received these materials through your broker, custodian, nominee or other intermediary, please complete and return the Proxy or voting instruction form provided to you by your broker, custodian, nominee or other intermediary in accordance with the instructions provided therein.

The Proxy confers discretionary authority with respect to: (i) amendments or variations to the matters of business to be considered at the Meeting; and (ii) other matters that may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, management of NAN knows of no amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting other than the matters set forth in this Notice of Meeting. NAN Shareholders who are planning on returning the accompanying Proxy are encouraged to review the Information Circular carefully before submitting the Proxy.

A copy of the Information Circular, the form of Proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable) and a financial statement request form accompany this Notice of Meeting.

Dated at the City of Vancouver, in the Province of British Columbia, this 16th day of May, 2022.

GENERAL INFORMATION

All capitalized terms used in this Information Circular (including the Appendices, unless otherwise stated) but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth under "Glossary". Information contained in this Information Circular is given as of May 16, 2022, unless otherwise specifically stated.

PROXY RELATED INFORMATION

Solicitation of Proxies

This Information Circular is provided in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of NAN for use at the annual general and special meeting of the NAN Shareholders to be held on June 23, 2022, at the time and place and for the purposes set out in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and at any adjournment thereof. The solicitation will be made primarily by mail and may also be supplemented by telephone or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by directors, officers and employees of the Company. The Company will bear the cost of this solicitation. The Company will not reimburse shareholders, nominees or agents for the cost incurred in obtaining from their principals authorization to execute forms of proxy.

Appointment and Revocation of Proxy

Registered NAN Shareholders

Registered NAN Shareholders may vote their NAN Shares by attending the Meeting in person or by completing the enclosed Proxy. Registered NAN Shareholders should deliver their completed proxies to Computershare Investor Services Inc., Proxy Department, 100 University Avenue, 8th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 2Y1 (by mail, telephone or internet according to the instructions on the proxy), not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time for holding the Meeting, otherwise the shareholder will not be entitled to vote at the Meeting by proxy.

The persons named in the Proxy are directors and officers of the Company and are proxyholders nominated by management. A NAN Shareholder has the right to appoint a person other than the nominees of management named in the enclosed instrument of Proxy to represent such NAN Shareholder at the Meeting. To exercise this right, a NAN Shareholder must insert the name of its nominee in the blank space provided. A person appointed as a proxyholder need not be a NAN Shareholder.

A registered NAN Shareholder may revoke a proxy by:

| (a) | signing a proxy with a later date and delivering it at the place and within the time noted above;

| (b) | signing and dating a written notice of revocation (in the same manner as the proxy is required to be executed, as set out in the notes to the proxy) and delivering it to the registered office of the Company, located at Suite 2500, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2X8, at any time up to and including the last Business Day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or to the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof;

| (c) | attending the Meeting or any adjournment thereof and registering with the scrutineer as a shareholder present in person, whereupon such proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked; or

| (d) | in any other manner provided by law.

Beneficial NAN Shareholders

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many NAN Shareholders, as many NAN Shareholders do not hold their NAN Shares in their own name. NAN Shareholders holding their NAN Shares through banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers, trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP's, RRIF's, RESP's and similar plans or other persons or otherwise not in their own name should note that only proxies deposited by NAN Shareholders appearing on the records maintained by NAN's transfer agent as Registered NAN Shareholders will be recognized and allowed to vote at the Meeting. If a NAN Shareholder's shares are listed in an account statement provided to the NAN Shareholder by a broker, in all likelihood those shares are not registered in the NAN Shareholder's name and that shareholder is a Beneficial NAN Shareholder. Such NAN Shares are most likely registered in the name of the NAN Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co., the registration name for The Canadian Depository for Securities, which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms. NAN Shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker's client can only be voted at the Meeting at the direction of the Beneficial NAN Shareholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the broker's clients. Therefore, each Beneficial NAN Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate party well in advance of the Meeting.

Regulatory policies require Intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial NAN Shareholders in advance of shareholder meetings. Beneficial NAN Shareholders have the option of not objecting to their Intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to NAN (such Beneficial NAN Shareholders are designated as non-objecting beneficial owners, or 'NOBOs') or objecting to their Intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to NAN (such Beneficial NAN Shareholders are designated as objecting beneficial owners, or 'OBOs').

In accordance with the requirements of NI 54-101, NAN has elected to send the Notice of Meeting, this Information Circular and a VIF request (instead of a Proxy) directly to the NOBOs and indirectly through Intermediaries to the OBOs. The Intermediaries (or their service companies) are responsible for forwarding the Meeting Materials to OBOs.

Meeting Materials sent to Beneficial NAN Shareholders are accompanied by a VIF, instead of a Proxy. By returning the VIF in accordance with the instructions noted on it, a Beneficial NAN Shareholder is able to instruct the Intermediary (or other registered shareholder) how to vote the Beneficial NAN Shareholder's NAN Shares on the Beneficial NAN Shareholder's behalf. For this to occur, it is important that the VIF be completed and returned in accordance with the specific instructions noted on the VIF.

The majority of Intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from Beneficial NAN Shareholders to Broadridge in Canada. Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable VIF, mails these VIFs to Beneficial NAN Shareholders and asks Beneficial NAN Shareholders to return the VIFs to Broadridge, usually by way of mail, the Internet or telephone. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting by proxies for which Broadridge has solicited voting instructions. A Beneficial NAN Shareholder who receives a Broadridge VIF cannot use that form to vote shares directly at the Meeting. The VIF must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of shares must otherwise be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the shares voted. If you have any questions respecting the voting of shares held through an Intermediary, please contact that Intermediary for assistance.

In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Beneficial NAN Shareholders to direct the voting of the shares, which they beneficially own. A Beneficial NAN Shareholder receiving a VIF cannot use that form to vote NAN Shares directly at the Meeting – Beneficial NAN Shareholders should carefully follow the instructions set out in the VIF including those regarding when and where the VIF is to be delivered. Should a Beneficial NAN Shareholder who receives a VIF wish to attend the Meeting or have someone else attend on their behalf, the Beneficial NAN Shareholder may request a legal Proxy as set forth in the VIF, which will grant the Beneficial NAN Shareholder or their nominee the right to attend and vote at the Meeting.

- 3 -

Only Registered NAN Shareholders have the right to revoke a Proxy. A Beneficial NAN Shareholder who wishes to change its vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for its Intermediary to revoke its VIF on its behalf.

All references to NAN Shareholders in this Information Circular and the accompanying instrument of Proxy and Notice of Meeting are to Registered NAN Shareholders, unless specifically stated otherwise.

The Meeting Materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered NAN Shareholders. If you are a Beneficial NAN Shareholder and NAN or its agent has sent the Meeting Materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of NAN's securities have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding on your behalf. By choosing to send the Meeting Materials to you directly, NAN (and not the Intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering the Meeting Materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in the VIF.

NAN is not relying on the notice and access delivery procedures outlined in NI 54-101 to distribute copies of Meeting Materials in connection with the Meeting.

Voting of Shares and Exercise of Discretion of Proxies

If a NAN Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the NAN Shares represented by Proxy will be voted or withheld from voting by the proxyholder in accordance with those instructions on any ballot that may be called for. In the enclosed form of Proxy, in the absence of any instructions in the Proxy, it is intended that such NAN Shares will be voted by the proxyholder, if a Nominee of management, in favour of the motions proposed to be made at the meeting as stated under the headings in the Notice of Meeting accompanying this Information Circular. If any amendments or variations to such matters, or any other matters, are properly brought before the Meeting, the proxyholder, if a Nominee of management, will exercise its discretion and vote on such matters in accordance with its best judgment.

The instrument of Proxy enclosed, in the absence of any instructions in the Proxy, also confers discretionary authority on any proxyholder other than the Nominees of management named in the instrument of Proxy with respect to the matters identified herein, amendments or variations to those matters, or any other matters which may properly be brought before the Meeting. To enable a proxyholder to exercise its discretionary authority, a NAN Shareholder must strike out the names of the Nominees of management in the enclosed instrument of Proxy and insert the name of its nominee in the space provided, and not specify a choice with respect to the matters to be acted upon. This will enable the proxyholder to exercise its discretion and vote on such matters in accordance with its best judgment.

At the time of printing this Information Circular, management of NAN is not aware that any amendments or variations to existing matters or new matters are to be presented for action at the Meeting, other than as set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon

Other than as set forth herein, management of the Company is not aware of any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, of each of the following persons in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the election of directors or the appointment of auditors:

| (a) | each person who has been a director or executive officer of NAN at any time since the beginning of the Company's last financial year;

| (b) | each proposed Nominee for election as a director of the Company; and

| (c) | each Associate or Affiliate of any of the foregoing.

Voting Securities and Principal Holders

As of the date of this Information Circular, the Company's authorized capital consisted of an unlimited number of NAN Shares and 100,000,000 preferred shares, which preferred shares do not carry the right to vote at the Meeting, and of which 20,000,000 are series 1 convertible preferred shares. NAN Shareholders of record at the close of business on May 16, 2022 (being the Record Date) who either personally attend the Meeting or who have completed and delivered a Proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described above, shall be entitled to vote, or to have their NAN Shares voted, at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof.

As at the Record Date, 133,870,032 NAN Shares were issued and outstanding, each share carrying the right to one vote.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company, as of the date of this Information Circular, no person or company owns or controls, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the issued and outstanding NAN Shares, except as stated below.

Name of Shareholder |  | Number of NAN Shares(1) |  |  | Percentage of Issued and Outstanding NAN Shares(2) |
Sentient Executive GP IV, Limited |  |  | 36,980,982 |  |  |  | 27.6 | %

Notes:

| (1) | The information as to NAN Shares beneficially owned, controlled or directed, directly or indirectly, not being within the knowledge of the Company has been obtained by the Company from Computershare and/or furnished by the NAN Shareholder listed above.
| (2) | On a non-diluted basis.

Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

Existing Plan

The Company's Existing Plan was approved by the NAN Shareholders at the annual and special meeting held on November 24, 2021. The Existing Plan is a "fixed" stock option plan, pursuant to which the Company may issue up to 19,000,000 incentive stock options ("Options") to Eligible Persons. In accordance with the policies of the Exchange, shareholder approval of the Existing Plan is not required on an annual basis; however, any increase in the number of Options available for issuance under the Existing Plan, among other amendments to the Existing Plan, will be subject to the Company obtaining the requisite shareholder and regulatory approvals.

Pursuant to the Existing Plan, Options may be granted by the Board to Eligible Persons, who are directors, officers, employees or Consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries (if any), eligible participants who are employees of a company that is providing management services to the Company, or charitable organizations. Options granted under the Existing Plan have a maximum exercise period of up to 10 years, as determined by the Board.

The Existing Plan limits the number of Options which may be granted to any one individual to not more than 5% of the total NAN Shares in any 12 month period (unless otherwise approved by the "disinterested shareholders" of the Company). A "disinterested shareholder" is a shareholder who is not a director, officer, promoter or other Insider of the Company or its Associates or Affiliates, as such terms are defined under the Securities Act (Ontario).

The number of Options granted to any one Consultant or person employed to provide investor relations activities in any 12 month period must not exceed 2% of the total outstanding NAN Shares. Options granted under the Existing Plan will not be subject to any vesting schedule, unless otherwise determined by the Board or required by the policies of the Exchange; other than if the Option is being granted to a person employed to provide investor relations activities, then the Option must vest in stages over at least a one-year period and no more than one-quarter (1/4) of such Options may be vested in any three month period.

- 9 -

Under the Existing Plan, Options may be granted at an exercise price which is at or above the current discounted market price (as defined under the policies of the Exchange) on the date of the grant. In the event of the death or permanent disability of an optionee, any Option granted to such optionee will be exercisable upon the earlier of 365 days from the date of death or permanent disability, or the expiry date of the Option. In the event of the resignation, or the termination or removal of an optionee without just cause, any Option granted to such optionee will be exercisable for a period of 90 days thereafter. In the event of termination for cause, any Option granted to such optionee will be cancelled as at the date of termination.

Resulting Issuer Plan

At the Meeting, NAN Shareholders will be asked to consider, and if thought fit, pass, with or without variation, an ordinary resolution approving the Resulting Issuer Plan, which will replace the Existing Plan upon the Closing. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon at the Meeting – Approval of the Option Plan – Resulting Issuer Plan" below for additional details relating to the Resulting Issuer Plan. A copy of the Resulting Issuer Plan is included in Appendix "D" – Resulting Issuer Plan to this Information Circular.

Oversight and Description of Director and Named Executive Officer Compensation

The Company has a compensation committee (the "Compensation Committee"), currently comprised of Christopher Messina (Chair), Douglas E. Ford and John Hick. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company's remuneration policies and practices and determining the compensation of the Named Executive Officers and directors. Prior to establishing the Compensation Committee, the Company did not have in place any formal objectives, criteria or analysis; instead, it relied mainly on Board discussion.

- 11 -

The Company's executive compensation program has three principal components: base salary, incentive bonus plan and stock options.

Base Salary

The Company provides executive officers with base salaries or consulting fees, which represent their minimum compensation for services rendered, or expected to be rendered. The Named Executive Officers' base compensation depends on the scope of their experience, responsibilities, leadership skills, performance, length of service, general industry trends and practices, competitiveness and the Company's existing financial resources.

Base salary is a fixed element of compensation that is payable to each Named Executive Officer for performing the specific duties of his or her position. The amount of base salary is determined through negotiation of employment terms with each Named Executive Officer and is determined on an individual basis. While base salary is intended to fit into the Company's overall compensation objectives by serving to attract and retain talented executive officers, the size of the Company and the nature and stage of its business also impacts the level of base salary. Compensation is set with informal reference to the market for similar jobs in Canada and internationally.

Incentive Bonuses

Incentive bonuses, in the form of cash payments, are designed to add a variable component of compensation based on corporate and individual performance for executive officers and employees. As the Company grows and develops its projects, it is expected that an annual incentive award program will be formalized that will clearly articulate performance objectives and specific measurable goals that will be linked to individual performance criteria set for the Named Executive Officers and other executive officers. No bonuses were paid to executive officers and employees during the Company's financial year ended December 31, 2021.

Option-Based Awards

Options are granted to provide an incentive to the directors, officers, employees and Consultants of the Company to achieve the longer-term objectives of the Company, to give suitable recognition to the ability and industry of such persons who contribute materially to the success of the Company and to attract and retain persons of experience and ability, by providing them with the opportunity to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the Company. The Company awards Options to its executive officers based upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, which recommendation is based on the Compensation Committee's review of a proposal from the Chief Executive Officer. Previous grants of Options are taken into account when considering new grants.

The implementation of new incentive stock option plans and amendments to the Company's Existing Plan are the responsibility of the Compensation Committee.

Other Compensation

The Company has no other forms of compensation, although payments may be made from time to time to individuals, or the companies they control, for the provision of consulting services. Such consulting services are paid for by the Company at competitive industry rates for work of a similar nature by reputable arm's length services providers.

Compensation Risks

The Compensation Committee is responsible for considering, reviewing and establishing executive compensation programs, and whether the programs encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking. The Company believes the programs are balanced and do not motivate unnecessary or excessive risk taking.

Base salaries are fixed in amount and thus do not encourage risk taking. While annual incentive awards and bonuses focus on the achievement of short term or annual goals, and short term goals may encourage the taking of short-term risks at the expense of long-term results, the Company's annual incentive award program is designed to represent a small percentage of employees' total compensation opportunities. No bonuses were paid to executive officers and employees during the Company's financial year ended December 31, 2021.

- 12 -

Option awards are important to further align the interests of Named Executive Officers with those of the NAN Shareholders. The ultimate value of the awards is tied to the Company's stock price and, since awards are staggered and subject to long-term vesting schedules, they help ensure that Named Executive Officers have significant value tied to long-term stock price performance.

Hedging

The Company has not established any policies related to the purchase by directors or executive officers of financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds) that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by any director or executive officer of the Company.

Pension Disclosure

No pension, retirement or deferred compensation plans, including defined contribution plans, have been instituted by the Company and none are proposed at this time.

The following table sets forth information with respect to all compensation plans under which equity securities are authorized for issuance as of December 31, 2021:

- 13 -

| (a) | the Informed Persons of the Company;

| (b) | the proposed Nominees for election as a director of the Company; or

| (c) | any Associate or Affiliate of the foregoing persons,

has or has had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since the commencement of the Company's most recently completed financial year or in any proposed transaction, which, in either case, has materially affected or is reasonably expected to materially affect the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON AT THE MEETING

Overview of the RTO Transaction

On April 25, 2022, the Company and NAN Subco entered into the Amalgamation Agreement with PNR, a private corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario, in respect of a proposed business combination that will result in a "reverse takeover" and a "Change of Control" (each as defined in the policies of the Exchange) of NAN (the "RTO Transaction"). The Amalgamation Agreement provides for, inter alia, the Amalgamation of PNR and NAN Subco to form "Amalco", pursuant to a triangular amalgamation under Section 175 of the OBCA. Prior to the Effective Time, the PNR Shares and the 15% Warrant (as defined below) held by NAN will be contributed to NAN Subco, resulting in such securities being cancelled by operation of the triangular amalgamation. Upon the Amalgamation, each PNR Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than in respect of such PNR Shares held by a Dissenting PNR Shareholder, will be exchanged for Resulting Issuer Shares on the basis of one (1) PNR Share for 1.054 Resulting Issuer Shares after giving effect to the Consolidation (or 5.27 NAN Shares on a pre-Consolidation basis), and each PNR Share will thereafter be cancelled. Each NAN Subco Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be exchanged for one fully paid and non-assessable Amalco Share, and all of the NAN Subco Shares shall thereafter be cancelled without any repayment of capital in respect thereof. As consideration for the issuance of the Resulting Issuer Shares to PNR Shareholders to effect the Amalgamation, Amalco will issue to the Resulting Issuer one Amalco Share for each Resulting Issuer Share so issued. All convertible or exchangeable securities of PNR issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will remain outstanding and become options and warrants of the Resulting Issuer and all PNR Options outstanding will be exchanged for Resulting Issuer Replacement Options, after giving effect to the Exchange Ratio and the Consolidation. For the purposes of this Information Circular, the term "Resulting Issuer" refers to the Company upon completion of the RTO Transaction.

In connection with the RTO Transaction, among other things: (i) the Board will be reconstituted; (ii) the Existing Plan will be replaced with the Resulting Issuer Plan; (iii) NAN's corporate existence will be continued from the BCBCA to the OBCA; and (iv) NAN will change its name to "Premium Nickel Resources Ltd.", or such other name as may be determined by the Board, subject to applicable regulatory approval and the terms of the Amalgamation Agreement. The Company also intends to consolidate the issued and outstanding NAN Shares on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation NAN Share for each five (5) pre-consolidation NAN Shares, which is expected to be implemented by resolution of the Board prior to Continuance.

In support of the RTO Transaction, all of the directors and officers of NAN and certain NAN Shareholders, including Sentient Global Resources Fund IV, L.P. and Contemporary Amperex Technology Canada Limited, representing approximately 54% of the outstanding NAN Shares, have entered into voting support agreements with PNR in support of the RTO Transaction. In addition, all of the directors and officers and certain shareholders of PNR, representing approximately 69% of the outstanding PNR Shares, have entered into voting support agreements with NAN in support of the RTO Transaction.

- 14 -

As of the date hereof, NAN holds a common share purchase warrant in the capital of PNR entitling it to acquire up to an undiluted 15% of the PNR Shares at an exercise price of US$10 million until February 26, 2025 (the "15% Warrant"). In connection with, and immediately prior to, the entry into of the Amalgamation Agreement, NAN and PNR entered into a waiver and suspension agreement, pursuant to which NAN agreed to suspend its exercise privileges under the 15% Warrant until the later of the 61st calendar day following the date of the Amalgamation Agreement and the date the Amalgamation Agreement is terminated. The 15% Warrant will concurrently and automatically terminate upon the completion of the RTO Transaction.

Certain directors and officers of NAN are also directors and officers of PNR (the "Interlocked Insiders"). As a result, the Amalgamation Agreement is considered to be a "Non-Arm's Length" agreement pursuant to the policies of the Exchange. The Interlocked Insiders include Charles Riopel (Non-Executive Chairman of NAN and Chairman of PNR), Keith Morrison (Chief Executive Officer and director of both NAN and PNR) and Sarah Zhu (Chief Financial Officer of both NAN and PNR).

The terms of the RTO Transaction were determined pursuant to arm's length negotiations between representatives of NAN and PNR, through the "NAN Special Committee" and "PNR Special Committee", each of which do not include the Interlocked Insiders. The Interlocked Insiders who are directors of PNR and NAN were excluded from board resolutions in respect of the RTO Transaction. Each of NAN and PNR retained independent counsel to the NAN Special Committee and PNR Special Committee, respectively. In addition, in connection with its evaluation of the RTO Transaction, the respective boards and special committees of each of NAN and PNR received fairness opinions from their respective financial advisors, specifically: (i) the Board and the special committee of NAN received a written fairness opinion dated April 22, 2022 (the "NAN Fairness Opinion") from INFOR, the financial advisor to NAN and the NAN Special Committee, to the effect that, as of the date of the NAN Fairness Opinion, and based upon and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in NAN Fairness Opinion, the RTO Transaction (including the Exchange Ratio) is fair, from a financial point of view, to the NAN Shareholders; and (ii) the board of directors of PNR received a verbal fairness opinion on April 25, 2022 (the "PNR Fairness Opinion") from Evans & Evans, Inc., the financial advisor to the PNR Special Committee, to the effect that, as of the date of the PNR Fairness Opinion, and based upon and subject to assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the PNR Fairness Opinion, the consideration to be received by the PNR Shareholders pursuant to the Amalgamation is fair, from a financial point of view to the PNR Shareholders.

The RTO Transaction requires the approval of the NAN Shareholders; however, pursuant to the policies of the Exchange, such approval may be obtained by way of written consent from the holders of a majority of the NAN Shares. The Company intends to obtain approval in this manner.

The RTO Transaction is very important to the Company and certain matters to be considered at the Meeting are necessary in order to prepare the Company to complete the RTO Transaction. Failure to approve the corresponding resolutions could impede or prevent the completion of the RTO Transaction.

Further details of the terms of the RTO Transaction are set out in the Amalgamation Agreement, a copy of which is available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) under NAN's issuer profile. Please also refer to the news releases of the Company dated April 26, 2022 and April 28, 2022 for further information with respect to the RTO Transaction.

Financial Statements

At the Meeting, NAN Shareholders will receive and consider the audited consolidated financial statements of NAN as at and for the years ended December 31, 2021, and the independent auditor's report thereon, but no vote by the NAN Shareholders with respect thereto is required or proposed to be taken. These annual financial statements, the auditor's report thereon and the related management's discussion and analysis for the financial year ended December 31, 2021, have been mailed to the NAN Shareholders who requested to receive them and are also available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) under NAN's issuer profile. Additional copies of the financial statements may be obtained from the Company on request and will be available at the Meeting.

Appointment and Remuneration of Auditor

At the Meeting, NAN Shareholders will be asked to approve the appointment of DMCL as the auditor of the Company to hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders or until a successor is appointed, and to authorize the Board to fix the auditor's remuneration. DMCL has been the auditor of the Company since May 27, 2005.

The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote FOR the appointment of DMCL as the auditor of the Company until the close of the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until its successor is appointed and the authorization of the Board to fix the remuneration of DMCL, unless the NAN Shareholder who has given such proxy has directed that the NAN Shares represented by such proxy be withheld from voting in respect of the appointment of the auditor of the Company.

Election of the Directors

Each director of the Company is elected annually and holds office until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until his or her successor is duly elected or appointed, unless his or her office is earlier vacated in accordance with the articles of NAN or any successor corporation thereof. The Board currently consists of six directors, the term of office for each of whom expires at the close of the Meeting.

In light of the RTO Transaction, NAN Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider, and if deemed advisable, to pass, with or without variation, an ordinary resolution (the "Director Election Resolution"):

| (a) | approving six (6) directors proposed by management of the Company, with each of Keith Morrison, Charles Riopel, Douglas E. Ford, Christopher Messina, Zhen Janet Huang and John Hick recommended for election at the Meeting (the "Original Board"), to hold office from the close of the Meeting until the earlier of (i) the Closing of the RTO Transaction, or (ii) if the RTO Transaction is not completed, until the next annual general meeting of the NAN Shareholders or until their successors are duly elected or appointed; and

The MCTO was issued in connection with the Carpathian's failure to file its audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, management's discussion and analysis relating to the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, and corresponding certifications of the foregoing filings as required by National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings. The MCTO was lifted on June 19, 2014 following the filing of the required continuous disclosure documents on June 17, 2014.

Approval of the Resulting Issuer Plan

The Resulting Issuer Plan, a copy of which is included in Appendix "D" – Resulting Issuer Plan to this Information Circular, is proposed to be adopted for the Resulting Issuer upon completion of the RTO Transaction.

Pursuant to Exchange Policy 4.4, NAN Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider, and if thought appropriate, to pass, with or without variation, an ordinary resolution to approve, conditionally upon and concurrently with, the Closing, the Resulting Issuer Plan (the "Option Plan Resolution"), the full text of which is included in Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular.

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote FOR the Option Plan Resolution. The Option Plan Resolution is an ordinary resolution, which must be passed by more than 50% of the votes cast by those NAN Shareholders entitled to vote, whether cast in person or by proxy. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons whose names appear in the enclosed form of Proxy intend to vote FOR the Option Plan Resolution. If the Option Plan Resolution is approved by NAN Shareholders and the RTO Transaction is completed, the Resulting Issuer Plan will be authorized to be implemented by the Resulting Issuer.

The following is a summary of the principal terms of the Resulting Issuer Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Resulting Issuer Plan, a copy of which is included in Appendix "D" – Resulting Issuer Plan attached to this Information Circular.

The Resulting Issuer Plan is a "fixed" stock option plan, pursuant to which the Resulting Issuer may issue up to 22,600,000 options ("Resulting Issuer Options") to Eligible Persons. On Closing of the RTO Transaction, Resulting Issuer Options will also be issued to former holders of stock options of PNR (the "Resulting Issuer Replacement Options").

In addition to Resulting Issuer Replacement Options, incentive Resulting Issuer Options under the Resulting Issuer Plan may be granted by the Resulting Issuer Board to eligible persons, who are directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Resulting Issuer or its subsidiaries, eligible persons who are employees of a company providing management services to the Resulting Issuer, or, in certain circumstances, charitable organizations. Resulting Issuer Options granted under the Resulting Issuer Plan have a maximum exercise period of up to 10 years, as determined by the Resulting Issuer Board.

The Resulting Issuer Plan limits the number of Resulting Issuer Options which may be granted to any one individual to not more than 5% of the total Resulting Issuer Shares in any 12 month period (unless otherwise approved by the "disinterested shareholders" of the Resulting Issuer). A "disinterested shareholder" is a shareholder who is not a director, officer, promoter, or other insider of the Resulting Issuer, or its associates or affiliates, as such terms are defined under the Securities Act (Ontario). In addition, unless otherwise approved by the disinterested shareholders of the Resulting Issuer, the number of Resulting Issuer Shares issuable under the Resulting Issuer Plan to all insiders of the Resulting Issuer as a group shall not exceed 10% of the total Resulting Issuer Shares at any point in time.

- 23 -

The number of Resulting Issuer Options granted to any one consultant or investor relations service providers in any 12-month period must not exceed 2% of the total issued Resulting Issuer Shares. Resulting Issuer Options granted to investor relations service providers shall vest in stages over at least a one-year period, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange. Subject to the foregoing, any Resulting Issuer Options granted under the Resulting Issuer Plan will not be subject to any vesting schedule, unless otherwise determined by the Resulting Issuer Board or required by the policies of the Exchange.

The number of Resulting Issuer Options granted to all eligible charitable organizations in the aggregate must not exceed 1% of the Resulting Issuer Shares on the date of grant, which Resulting Issuer Options shall expire on or before the earlier of (i) the date that is ten years from the grant date, or (ii) the 90th day following the date that the holder of such Resulting Issuer Options ceases to be an eligible charitable organization under the Resulting Issuer Plan.

Resulting Issuer Options under the Resulting Issuer Plan may be granted at an exercise price which is at or above the current discounted market price (as defined under the policies of the Exchange) on the date of the grant, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the exercise price of the Resulting Issuer Replacement Options shall be as determined in accordance with the Amalgamation Agreement. In the event of the death or permanent disability of an optionee, any Resulting Issuer Option granted to such optionee will be exercisable upon the earlier of 365 days from the date of death or permanent disability, or the expiry date of the Resulting Issuer Option. In the event of the resignation, or the termination or removal of an optionee without just cause, any Resulting Issuer Option granted to such optionee will be exercisable for a period of 90 days thereafter. In the event of termination for cause, any Resulting Issuer Option granted to such optionee will be cancelled as at the date of termination. Resulting Issuer Replacement Options held by persons who are not eligible persons under the Resulting Issuer Plan at the Closing of the RTO Transaction will expire 12 months from the date of the Closing of the RTO Transaction.

Resulting Issuer Options may be exercised by the holder thereof (i) by delivering to the Resulting Issuer a notice specifying the number of Resulting Issuer Shares in respect of which the Resulting Issuer Option is exercised together with payment in full of the exercise price for each such Resulting Issuer Share, (ii) through a cashless exercise mechanism whereby the Company has certain arrangements with a brokerage firm, or (iii) a net exercise mechanism whereby the optionee receives only the number of Resulting Issuer Shares that is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product of the number of Resulting Issuer Options being exercised and the difference between the 5-day volume weighted average price of the underlying Resulting Issuer Shares on the Exchange immediately preceding the exercise and the exercise price of the subject Resulting Issuer Option by (B) the 5-day volume weighted average price of the underlying Resulting Shares.

Approval of the Continuance

The Company is currently governed by the BCBCA. At the Meeting, NAN Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, to pass, with or without variation, a special resolution approving the Continuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia under the BCBCA to the Province of Ontario under the OBCA (the "Continuance Resolution"). To be effective, the Continuance Resolution must be approved at the Meeting by at least two-thirds (66 2/3%) of the votes cast thereon by NAN Shareholders, voting as a single class, present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting. If the NAN Shareholders do not approve the Continuance Resolution, the Continuance will not proceed.

Assuming the Continuance Resolution is approved at the Meeting, it is the current intention of the Company to effect the Continuance prior to the completion of the RTO Transaction. Notwithstanding the approval of the Continuance Resolution by NAN Shareholders, the Board may, in its sole discretion abandon such proposed Continuance without further approval or action by, or prior notice to, the NAN Shareholders.

- 24 -

The full text of the Continuance Resolution is set out in Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular.

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote FOR the Continuance Resolution. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons whose names appear in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Continuance Resolution.

The Continuance, if approved and effected, will change the legal domicile of the Company to the Province of Ontario and will affect certain of the rights of NAN Shareholders as they currently exist under the BCBCA. Accordingly, NAN Shareholders should consult their own independent legal advisors regarding implications of the Continuance, which may be of particular importance to them. NAN Shareholders are referred to Appendix "F" – Certain Corporate Differences Between BCBCA and OBCA attached to this Information Circular for a summary of the differences between the BCBCA and OBCA. The summary is not exhaustive and NAN Shareholders are advised to review the full text of the OBCA.

Reason for the Continuance

Given the connection of the Resulting Issuer to Ontario, and that Amalco will exist under the OBCA, the Board deemed it in the best interests of the Company to complete the Continuance and register under the OBCA under the name "Premium Nickel Resources Ltd.".

Procedure for the Continuance

In order to effect the Continuance, the following steps must be taken:

| (a) | the NAN Shareholders must approve the Continuance Resolution at the Meeting, authorizing the Company to, among other things, file the prescribed application for authorization to continue out of British Columbia (the "Export Application") with the registrar appointed under the BCBCA (the "BC Registrar");

| (b) | the BC Registrar must authorize the proposed Continuance (the "Authorization");

| (c) | the Company must then file articles of Continuance (the "Articles of Continuance"), the Authorization and any other necessary documentation with the director appointed under the OBCA (the "Ontario Director"), who will then issue a Certificate of Continuance; and

| (d) | the Certificate of Continuance received from the Ontario Director must be submitted to the BC Registrar, who will then publish a notice that the Company has been continued into Ontario.

Effect of the Continuance

Upon the issuance of a Certificate of Continuance for the Company under the OBCA, the Company will cease to be a corporation governed by the BCBCA and will be governed by the OBCA. The Continuance does not create a new legal entity and will not prejudice or affect the continuity of the Company. The Continuance will not result in any change in the business of the Company. Upon the completion of the Continuance, there is no change in:

| (a) | the ownership of corporate property;

| (b) | liability for the obligations of the Company;

| (c) | the existence of a cause of action, claim or liability to prosecution;

- 25 -

| (d) | enforcement against the Company of any civil, criminal, administrative action or proceedings pending; and

| (e) | the enforceability of any conviction against, or ruling, order or judgment in favour of or against the Company.

Furthermore, any NAN Shares issued before the Continuance will continue to be shares of the Company, as a company governed by the OBCA. The Continuance does not relieve a holder of NAN Shares of any liability in respect of such NAN Shares.

Certain Corporate Differences Between the BCBCA and the OBCA

In general terms, the OBCA provides to NAN Shareholders substantively the same rights as are available to NAN Shareholders under the BCBCA, including the right of dissent and appraisal and the right to bring derivative actions and oppression actions. There are, however, important differences. NAN Shareholders are referred to Appendix "F" – Certain Corporate Differences Between BCBCA and OBCA attached to this Information Circular for a summary of the differences between the BCBCA and OBCA. The summary is not exhaustive and NAN Shareholders are advised to review the full text of the OBCA and consult their legal advisors regarding the implications of the Continuance.

Articles of Continuance and By-Law No. 1

As noted above, the Company is required to file Articles of Continuance with the Ontario Director in order to effect the Continuance, which proposed Articles of Continuance are attached hereto as Appendix "G" – Form of Articles of Continuance to this Information Circular. In addition, if the Continuance becomes effective, the Company will adopt by-laws, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix "H" – By-Law No. 1 of Resulting Issuer to this Information Circular (the "By-Law No. 1"), in order to, among other things, increase the quorum requirement for shareholder meetings of the Resulting Issuer, include advance notice provisions (the "Advance Notice Provisions") and reflect evolving corporate governance standards.

If the RTO Transaction and the Continuance proceed and are completed and the By-Law Resolution is passed, the By-Law No. 1 will be the by-laws of the Resulting Issuer. NAN's existing articles under the BCBCA (the "Existing Articles") will be repealed as of the filing of the Articles of Continuance. The repeal shall not affect the previous operation of the Existing Articles so repealed or affect the validity of any act done or right, privilege, obligation or liability acquired or incurred under, or the validity of any contract or agreement made pursuant to, the repealed Existing Articles before its repeal.

Quorum Requirement

In line with good corporate governance practices, the quorum for each meeting of the shareholders of the Resulting Issuer will be at least two shareholders of the Resulting Issuer, each of whom is entitled to vote at such meeting, holding or representing not less than ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares carrying the right to vote at such meeting.

Purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions

The purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions contained in the By-Law No. 1 is to provide shareholders of the Resulting Issuer, the Resulting Issuer Board and management of the Resulting Issuer with a procedure for shareholders wishing to nominate a person for election as a director. The Advance Notice Provisions fix a deadline by which shareholders of the Resulting Issuer must submit director nominations to the Resulting Issuer prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Resulting Issuer in order for such person to be eligible to stand for election as a director at such meeting, all of which is intended to: (i) facilitate orderly and efficient annual general or, where the need arises, special meetings, (ii) provide shareholders of the Resulting Issuer with adequate time and disclosure to allow for an informed decision on the election of directors at such meeting, and (iii) provide an opportunity for the Resulting Issuer Board to make an informed determination and, if appropriate, present alternatives to shareholders of the Resulting Issuer.

Dissent Rights with Respect to the Continuance

Pursuant to Section 309 of the BCBCA, a Registered NAN Shareholder who objects to the Continuance out of British Columbia has the right to dissent (the "Dissent Rights") under Division 2 of Part 8 in respect of the Continuance and to be paid the fair value of their NAN Shares determined as of the day before the Continuance Resolution is passed. Beneficial NAN Shareholders who wish to dissent should contact the Registered NAN Shareholder of their NAN Shares for assistance with exercising the Dissent Right.

The following is a brief summary of the Dissent Right. NAN Shareholders are referred to the full text of Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA for a complete understanding of the Dissent Rights under the BCBCA. A copy of those provisions of the BCBCA is attached to this Information Circular as Appendix "E" – Dissent Rights Under Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

A dissenting NAN Shareholder (a "Dissenting Shareholder") who is a Registered NAN Shareholder and who wishes to exercise the Dissent Right is required to send to the Company, at Suite 2500, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2X8, a written notice of dissent in respect of the Continuance Resolution at least two days prior to the Meeting ("Dissent Notice"). A vote against the Continuance Resolution, or an abstention, does not constitute a written objection. To be valid, a Dissent Notice must:

| (a) | identify in each Dissent Notice the person on whose behalf the dissent is being exercised;

| (b) | set out the number of NAN Shares in respect of which the Dissenting Shareholder is exercising the Dissent Rights ("Continuance Notice Shares"), which number cannot be less than all of the NAN Shares held by the beneficial owner on whose behalf the Dissent Rights are being exercised;

| (c) | if the Continuance Notice Shares constitute all of the NAN Shares of which the Dissenting Shareholder is both the Registered NAN Shareholder and beneficial owner and the Dissenting Shareholder owns no other NAN Shares as beneficial owner, a statement to that effect;

| (d) | if the Continuance Notice Shares constitute all of the NAN Shares of which the Dissenting Shareholder is the Registered NAN Shareholder but the Dissenting Shareholder owns other NAN Shares as a beneficial owner, a statement to that effect, and:

| (i) | the names of the Registered NAN Shareholders of those other NAN Shares;

| (ii) | the number of those other NAN Shares that are held by each of those Registered NAN Shareholders;

| (iii) | a statement that Dissent Notices are being or have been sent in respect of all those other NAN Shares;

| (e) | if a Dissent Right is being exercised by the Dissenting Shareholder on behalf of a beneficial owner who is not a Dissenting Shareholder, a statement to that effect, and:

| (i) | the name and address of the beneficial owner; and

| (ii) | a statement that the dissenting NAN Shareholder is dissenting in relation to all of the NAN Shares beneficially owned by the beneficial owner that are registered in the Dissenting Shareholder's name.

Giving a Dissent Notice does not deprive a Dissenting Shareholder of his, her or its right to vote at the Meeting on the Continuance Resolution. A NAN Shareholder is not entitled to exercise the Dissent Rights with respect to any NAN Shares if the NAN Shareholder votes (or instructs or is deemed, by submission of any incomplete form of proxy, to have instructed his, her or its proxyholder to vote) FOR the Continuance Resolution. A Dissenting Shareholder, however, may vote, as a proxy for a NAN Shareholder whose proxy required an affirmative vote, without affecting his, her or its right to exercise the Dissent Rights.

- 27 -

If the Continuance Resolution is adopted, the Company is required to give notice to the Dissenting Shareholder that the Company intends to act, or has acted, upon that resolution and advising the Dissenting Shareholder of the manner in which dissent is to be completed. Upon receipt of the notice from the Company, a Dissenting Shareholder then has one month within which to submit to the Company or its transfer agent the share certificates representing the Dissenting Shareholder's NAN Shares, along with written notice that the Dissenting Shareholder requires the Company to purchase its NAN Shares, upon the doing of which the Dissenting Shareholder will be deemed to have sold, and the Company will be deemed to have purchased, the Dissenting Shareholder's NAN Shares.

If the Company and the Dissenting Shareholder cannot agree on the payout value for the Dissenting Shareholder's NAN Shares, either the Dissenting Shareholder or the Company may apply to the court to fix the fair value of the Dissenting Shareholder's NAN Shares. The court can either fix a payout value or order the matter to be determined by arbitration or by reference to the registrar or a referee of the court. The Company may not make payment to a Dissenting Shareholder where there are reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is insolvent or that payment would render the Company insolvent.

A Dissent Notice ceases to be effective if, among other things, the NAN Shareholder giving a Dissent Notice consents to or votes in favour of the Continuance Resolution.

If the Continuance is not implemented for any reason, Dissenting Shareholders will not be entitled to be paid the fair value for their NAN Shares and the Dissenting Shareholders will be entitled to the return of any share certificates delivered to the Company in connection with the exercise of the Dissent Right.

NAN Shareholders who wish to exercise the Dissent Right should carefully review the dissent procedures described in Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA and seek legal advice, as failure to adhere strictly to the Dissent Right requirements may result in the loss of any Dissent Rights.

Registered NAN Shareholders have Dissent Rights in respect of the Continuance Resolution as governed by Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA. The Dissent Rights must be strictly complied with in order for a Registered NAN Shareholder to receive cash representing the fair value of NAN Shares held. To exercise the Dissent Rights in respect of the Continuance Resolution, a written notice of objection to the Continuance Resolution must be received by NAN in accordance with the instructions set out in this Information Circular by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on Wednesday, June 22, 2022, being the Business Day preceding the Meeting (as may be adjourned or postponed from time to time). See Appendix "E" – Dissent Rights Under Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) to this Information Circular.

The Board may elect not to proceed with the transactions contemplated in the Continuance Resolution if any Notices of Dissent are received.

Approval of By-Law No. 1

The Board has conditionally approved the adoption of By-Law No. 1, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix "H" – By-Law No. 1 of Resulting Issuer, as the new general by-law of the Resulting Issuer upon the Continuance of the Company from the BCBCA to the OBCA.

The NAN Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought appropriate, approve, a resolution to confirm the adoption of By-Law No. 1 as the new general by-law of the Resulting Issuer, conditional upon the Continuance of the Company from the BCBCA to the OBCA.

By-Law No. 1 is standard in its form and governs certain aspects of the business and affairs of the Company, such as: the establishment of a quorum for meetings of directors and shareholders, respectively; the conduct of the meetings of directors and shareholders, respectively; signing authorities; the appointment of officers; and similar matters.

- 28 -

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote FOR the By-Law Resolution. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons whose names appear in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the By-Law Resolution.

The full text of the By-Law Resolution is set out in Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular.

Approval of the Name Change

Upon completion of the RTO Transaction, it is intended that the Resulting Issuer will carry on the business previously carried on by the Company. In connection therewith, the Company intends to change its name to "Premium Nickel Resources Ltd.", or such other name as may be determined by the Board (the "Name Change").

As a condition to completion of the RTO Transaction, the NAN Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed appropriate, to pass, with or without variation, a special resolution authorizing the Company to effect the Name Change through the listing of the Company's name as "Premium Nickel Resources Ltd." on the Articles of Continuance.

The filing of the Articles of Continuance with the Company's name listed as "Premium Nickel Resources Ltd." to effect the Name Change must be approved by special resolution in order to become effective. To pass, a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by the NAN Shareholders present at the Meeting in person or by proxy. If the NAN Shareholders do not approve the special resolution, the RTO Transaction may not proceed. Shareholders are urged to vote in favour of this special resolution.

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote FOR the Name Change Resolution. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons whose names appear in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Name Change Resolution.

The full text of the Name Change Resolution is set out in Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular.

Authorizing Board to Fix the Number of Directors

If the NAN Shareholders vote to approve the Continuance Resolution and the Continuance is completed, the Company will be Governed by the OBCA and the articles of the Resulting Issuer will provide for a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 10 directors. Pursuant to section 125(3) of the OBCA, if the articles of a company provide for a minimum and maximum number of directors, the directors may, if a special resolution of shareholders so provide, fix the number of directors to be elected at an annual meeting.

In addition, section 124(2) of the OBCA also provides that where a special resolution empowers directors to fix the number of directors in accordance with section 125(3) of the OBCA, the directors may appoint one or more additional directors between annual meetings, to hold office for a term expiring not later than the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders, provided that the total number of directors following such appointment may not exceed one and one-third of the number of directors elected at the previous annual meeting of shareholders.

From time to time, the Board identifies an individual who could make a valuable contribution to the Company as a director. Following the Meeting, the Board wishes to have the ability to invite such an individual to join the Board between Shareholders' meetings, without the need to create a vacancy, as this may restrict the Company's ability to enhance the Board at the earliest opportunity. In addition, it is anticipated that a seventh director will be appointed to the Resulting Issuer Board following Closing.

By adopting the proposed special resolution, the full text of which is set out in Appendix "A" – Resolutions to be Approved at the Meeting to this Information Circular, it will be possible to more quickly take advantage of opportunities to augment the Board.

The Board unanimously recommends that NAN Shareholders vote FOR the Director Number Resolution. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the persons whose names appear in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Director Number Resolution.

Appendix "B"

Corporate Governance Disclosure

FORM 58-101F2 – CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE (VENTURE ISSUERS)

The Board believes that good corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all shareholders. National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for reporting issuers such as the Company. In addition, National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101") prescribes certain disclosure by the Company of its corporate governance practices. This disclosure is presented below in accordance with Form 58-101F2 – Corporate Governance Disclosure (Venture Issuers) of NI 58-101. All capitalized terms used in this Appendix "B" – Corporate Governance Disclosure have the meanings set forth herein and, unless the context otherwise requires, should not be interpreted with reference to the "Glossary" in the Information Circular. In connection with the RTO Transaction, certain information below is provided for the NAN Board and, where appropriate, for the Resulting Issuer Board.

Item 1: Board Of Directors

The Board supervises the CEO and the CFO. Both the CEO and CFO are required to act in accordance with the scope of authority provided to them by the Board.

Item 3: Orientation and Continuing Education

New Board members receive an orientation package which includes reports on operations and results, and public disclosure filings by the Company. Board meetings are sometimes held at the Company's offices and, from time to time, are combined with presentations by the Company's management to give the directors additional insight into the Company's business. In addition, management of the Company makes itself available for discussion with all Board members.

Item 4: Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company's governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director's participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.

B-2

Item 5 : Nomination of Directors

The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to the NAN Shareholders for election at the annual meeting of NAN Shareholders, taking into account the number required to carry out the Board's duties effectively and to maintain a diversity of view and experience.

The Board does not have a nominating committee, and these functions are currently performed by the Board as a whole. However, if there is a change in the number of directors required by the Company, this policy will be reviewed.

Subject to Closing, the Resulting Issuer intends to establish a Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (the "Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee") to assist the Resulting Issuer Board with the above-noted matter relating to the nominations. See "Other Board Committees" below.

Item 6: Compensation

NAN Compensation Committee

Prior to March 27, 2014, the Company did not have a separate Compensation Committee and compensation matters were dealt with by the entire Board.

Effective March 27, 2014, a Compensation Committee (the "NAN Compensation Committee") was created. The NAN Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things, evaluating the performance of the Company's executive officers, determining or making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of the Company's executive officers, making recommendations to the Board with respect to director compensation, incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans, making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation policy for the employees of the Company or its subsidiaries and ensuring that the Company is in compliance with all legal requirements with respect to compensation disclosure. In performing its duties, the NAN Compensation Committee has the authority to engage such advisors, including executive compensation consultants, as it considers necessary.

The NAN Compensation Committee is currently composed of Christopher Messina (Chair), Douglas E. Ford and John Hick. Mr. Messina, Ford and Hick are independent directors within the meaning set out in NI 58-101.

Each of the members of the NAN Compensation Committee are experienced participants in business or finance, and have sat on the boards of directors of other companies, charities or business associations, in addition to the Board of the Company.

The recommendations of the NAN Compensation Committee are based primarily on analysis which compares the Company's pay levels and compensation practices with other reporting issuers of the same size as and which are active in the industry and/or market in which the Company competes for talent. This analysis provides valuable information that will allow the Company to make adjustments, if necessary, to attract and retain the best individuals to meet the Company's needs and provide value to the NAN Shareholders.

Resulting Issuer Compensation Committee

Subject to Closing, the Resulting Issuer intends to establish a compensation committee (the "Resulting Issuer Compensation Committee") on the same terms as the NAN Compensation Committee. The Resulting Issuer Compensation Committee is proposed to be composed of John Chisholm (Chair), Sean Whiteford and Sheldon Inwentash. Immediately after Closing, Mr. Chisholm, Whiteford and Inwentash will be independent directors within the meaning set out in NI 58-101.

Each of the proposed members of the Resulting Issuer Compensation Committee are experienced participants in business or finance, and have sat on the boards of directors of other companies, charities or business associations.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is proposed to be composed of John Hick (Chair), Keith Morrison and Sean Whiteford.

Due to the minimal size of the Company's Board of Directors, no formal policy has been established to monitor the effectiveness of the directors, the Board and its committees.

| 4. | EXERCISE OF OPTION

| 4.1 | When Options May be Exercised

Subject to Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 hereof, an Option shall be granted as fully Vested on the Grant Date, and may be exercised to purchase any number of Shares up to the number of Unissued Option Shares at any time after the Grant Date, provided that this Plan has been previously approved by the shareholders of the Company, where such prior approval is required by TSXV Policies, up to 4:00 p.m. local time on the Expiry Date and shall not be exercisable thereafter.

- 6 -

| 4.2 | Manner of Exercise

The Board, in its sole discretion, may permit the exercise of an Option through any of the following methods:

| (a) | Payment

Options may be exercisable by delivering to the Company a notice specifying the number of Option Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised together with payment in full of the Option Price for each such Option Share. Upon notice and payment there will be binding contract for the issue of the Option Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised, upon and subject to the provisions of the Plan. Delivery of the Optionee's cheque payable to the Company in the amount of the Option Price shall constitute payment of the Option Price unless the cheque is not honoured upon presentation in which case the Option shall not have been validly exercised.

| (b) | Cashless Exercise

A cashless exercise mechanism whereby the Company has an arrangement with a brokerage firm pursuant to which:

| (i) | the brokerage firm agrees to loan money to a Optionee to purchase the Option Shares underlying the Options to be exercise by the Optionee;

| (ii) | the brokerage firm receives such number of Option Shares to sell, at the direction of and on behalf of the Optionee, the aggregate proceeds of which are sufficient to cover the Option Price of the Options in order to permit the Optionee to repay the loan made to the Optionee; and

| (iii) | the Optionee receives the balance of the Option Shares pursuant to such exercise, or cash proceeds from the sale of the balance of the Option Shares.

| (c) | Net Exercise

A net exercise mechanism, whereby Options, except Options granted to an Investor Relations Service Provider, are exercised without the Optionee making any cash payment so the Company does not receive any cash from the exercise of such Options and the Optionee receives only the number of Option Shares that is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing: (A) the product of the number of Options being exercised and the difference between the VWAP of the underlying Shares and the Option Price of the subject Options; by (B) the VWAP of the underlying Shares.

| 4.3 | Vesting of Option Shares

An Option shall be granted hereunder as fully Vested, unless a vesting schedule is imposed by the Board as a condition of the grant on the Grant Date; and provided that if the Option is being granted to an Investor Relations Service Provider, then the Option must vest in stages as set out in Section 3.2(d) hereof.

- 7 -

| 4.4 | Termination of Employment

If an Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person, his or her Option shall be exercisable as follows:

| (a) | Death or Disability

If the Optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person, due to his or her death or Disability or, in the case of an Optionee that is a company, the death or Disability of the person who provides management or consulting services to the Company or to any entity controlled by the Company, the Option then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of:

| (i) | 365 days after the date of death or Disability; and

| (ii) | the Expiry Date.

| (b) | Termination For Cause

If the Optionee, or in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person as a result of termination for cause, as that term is interpreted by the courts of the jurisdiction in which the Optionee, or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, of the Optionee's employer, is employed or engaged; any outstanding Option held by such Optionee on the date of such termination shall be cancelled as of that date.

| (c) | Early Retirement, Voluntary Resignation or Termination Other than For Cause

If the Optionee or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person due to his or her retirement at the request of his or her employer earlier than the normal retirement date under the Company's retirement policy then in force, or due to his or her termination by the Company other than for cause, or due to his or her voluntary resignation, the Option then held by the Optionee shall be exercisable to acquire Vested Unissued Option Shares at any time up to but not after the earlier of the Expiry Date and the date which is 90 days after the Optionee or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, ceases to be an Eligible Person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Resulting Issuer Options held by Resulting Issuer Replacement Optionholders who are not Eligible Persons at the Closing (as defined in the Amalgamation Agreement) will expire 12 months from the date of the Closing.

| 4.5 | Blackout Extension

| (a) | The Company may from time to time impose trading blackouts during which directors, officers, employees or consultants may not trade in the securities of the Company (a "Blackout Period"). If a Blackout Period is imposed, subject to the terms of the blackout and the Company's blackout policy, a holder of an Option may not exercise Options until expiry of the Blackout Period.

- 8 -

| (b) | As a result of the foregoing limitation, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the term of any Option that would otherwise expire during a Blackout Period will be extended by ten (10) trading days following the expiry of such Blackout Period (the "Extension Period"), provided that the following requirements are satisfied:

| (i) | the Blackout Period must be formally imposed by the Company pursuant to its internal trading policies. For greater certainty, in the absence of the Company formally imposing a Blackout Period, the expiry date of any Options will not be automatically extended in any circumstances;

| (ii) | the Blackout Period must expire upon the general disclosure of the undisclosed material information; provided that if an additional Blackout Period is subsequently imposed by the Company during the Extension Period, then such Extension Period shall be deemed to commence following the end of such additional Extension Period to enable the exercise of such Option within 10 trading days following the end of the last imposed Blackout Period; and

| (iii) | the automatic extension of a holder's Options will not be permitted where the Optionee or the Company is subject to a cease trade order (or similar order under securities laws) in respect of the Company's securities.

| 4.6 | Effect of a Take-Over Bid

If a bona fide offer (an "Offer") for Shares is made to the Optionee or to shareholders of the Company generally or to a class of shareholders which includes the Optionee, which Offer, if accepted in whole or in part, would result in the offeror becoming a control person of the Company, within the meaning of Subsection 1(1) of the Securities Act, the Company shall, immediately upon receipt of notice of the Offer, notify each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, whereupon the Option Shares subject to such Option may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee so as to permit the Optionee to tender the Option Shares received upon such exercise, pursuant to the Offer.

| 4.7 | Acceleration of Expiry Date

If at any time when an Option granted under the Plan remains unexercised with respect to any Unissued Option Shares, an Offer is made by an offeror, the Board may, upon notifying each Optionee of full particulars of the Offer, declare all Option Shares issuable upon the exercise of Options granted under the Plan, are Vested (subject to the proviso below), and declare that the Expiry Date for the exercise of all unexercised Options granted under the Plan is accelerated so that all Options will either be exercised or will expire prior to the date upon which Shares must be tendered pursuant to the Offer, provided that where an Option was granted to an Investor Relations Service Provider, the Board declaration that Option Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Options granted under the Plan be Vested with respect to such Option Shares, is subject to prior approval of the Exchanges. The Board shall give each Optionee as much notice as possible of the acceleration of the Options under this Section, except that not less than 5 business days and not more than 35 days' notice is required.

| 4.8 | Effect of a Change of Control

If a Change of Control occurs, all Option Shares subject to each outstanding Option shall become Vested and may be exercised in whole or in part by the Optionee immediately prior to such Change of Control.

- 9 -

| 4.9 | Exclusion From Severance Allowance, Retirement Allowance or Termination Settlement

If the Optionee, or, in the case of a Management Company Employee or a Consultant Company, the Optionee's employer, retires, resigns or is terminated from employment or engagement with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, the loss or limitation, if any, by the cancellation of the right to purchase Option Shares under the Option Agreement shall not give rise to any right to damages and shall not be included in the calculation of nor form any part of any severance allowance, retiring allowance or termination settlement of any kind whatsoever in respect of such Optionee.

| 4.10 | Shares Not Acquired, Cancelled or Terminated

Any Unissued Option Shares not acquired by an Optionee under an Option for reason that it is cancelled, terminated, surrendered, forfeited or expired without being exercised may be made the subject of a further Option granted pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. For greater certainty, any Option Shares acquired by an Optionee under an Option shall not continue to be issuable under the Plan.

| 5. | ADJUSTMENT OF OPTION PRICE AND NUMBER OF OPTION SHARES

| 5.1 | Share Reorganization

Whenever the Company issues Shares to all or substantially all holders of Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution, or subdivides all outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, or combines or consolidates all outstanding Shares into a lesser number of Shares (each of such events being herein called a "Share Reorganization") then effective immediately after the record date for such dividend or other distribution or at the effective time of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, for each Option:

| (a) | the Option Price will be adjusted to a price per Share which is the product of:

| (i) | the Option Price in effect immediately before that effective date or record date; and

| (ii) | a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Shares outstanding on that effective date or record date before giving effect to the Share Reorganization, and the denominator of which is the total number of Shares that are or would be outstanding immediately after such effective date or record date after giving effect to the Share Reorganization; and

| (b) | the number of Unissued Option Shares will be adjusted by multiplying (i) the number of Unissued Option Shares immediately before such effective date or record date by (ii) a fraction which is the reciprocal of the fraction described in subparagraph (a)(ii).

| 5.2 | Special Distribution

Subject to the prior approval of the Exchanges, whenever the Company issues by way of a dividend or otherwise distributes to all or substantially all holders of Shares:

| (a) | shares of the Company, other than the Shares;

- 10 -

| (b) | evidences of indebtedness;

| (c) | any cash or other assets, excluding cash dividends (other than cash dividends which the Board has determined to be outside the normal course); or

| (d) | rights, options or warrants,

then to the extent that such dividend or distribution does not constitute a Share Reorganization (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a "Special Distribution"), the Board shall make such adjustments to the Plan and to the Options then outstanding under the Plan as the Board determines to be appropriate and equitable under the circumstances, so that the proportionate interest of each Optionee shall, to the extent practicable, be maintained as before the occurrence of such event. Such adjustments may include, without limitation, a reduction of the Option Price or an increase in the number of Unissued Option Shares.

| 5.3 | Corporate Organization

Whenever there is:

(any such event being herein called a "Corporate Reorganization") the Board shall make such adjustments to the Plan and to the Options then outstanding under the Plan as the Board determines to be appropriate and equitable under the circumstances, so that the proportionate interest of each Optionee shall, to the extent practicable, be maintained as before the occurrence of such event. Such adjustments may include, without limitation, the substitution or replacement of similar options to purchase other shares in the Company (or in the case of an event described in (b) above, shares in the corporation resulting from such event).

| 5.4 | Determination of Option Price and Number of Unissued Option Shares

If any questions arise at any time with respect to the Option Price or number of Unissued Option Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option following a Share Reorganization, Special Distribution or Corporate Reorganization, such questions shall be conclusively determined by the Company's auditor, or, if they decline to so act, any other firm of Chartered Accountants in Toronto, Ontario, that the Board may designate and who will have access to all appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company and all Optionees.

| 5.5 | Regulatory Approval

Any adjustment to the Option Price or the number of Unissued Option Shares purchasable under the Plan pursuant to the operation of any one of Section 5.1, Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 is subject to the approval of the Exchanges where required pursuant to their policies, and compliance with the applicable securities rules or regulations of any other governmental authority having jurisdiction.

| 6. | MISCELLANEOUS

| 6.1 | Right to Employment

Neither this Plan nor any of the provisions hereof shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to employment or continued employment with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to terminate such employment.

| 6.2 | Necessary Approvals

The Plan shall be effective immediately upon the approval of the Board, where the Company is a non-reporting issuer. If the Company is a reporting issuer whose Shares are listed on any Exchanges, then the Plan shall be effective only upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company given by way of an ordinary resolution, where such prior approval is required by the policies of the Exchanges. Any Options granted under this Plan before such prior approval shall only be exercised upon the receipt of such approval, where it is required by the policies of the Exchanges.

The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares in accordance with the Plan is subject to compliance with the policies of the Exchanges and applicable securities rules or regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction.

Except as set forth in Section 5.4 hereof, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan by the Board shall be final and conclusive. Administration of the Plan shall be the responsibility of the appropriate officers of the Company and all costs in respect thereof shall be paid by the Company.

| 6.4 | Income Taxes

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Company or any affiliate may take such steps as are considered necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes which the Company or any affiliate is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to withhold in connection with any Option or Option Share or other benefit under the Plan. In such circumstances, the Company or any affiliate may require that the Optionee pay to the Company or any affiliate, such amount as the Company or any affiliate reasonably determines it is obliged to remit to the relevant tax authorities in connection with any Option or Option Share or other benefit under the Plan. Alternatively, the Company or any affiliate shall have the right, in its discretion, to satisfy any such liability by the withholding of all or any portion of any payment to be made to the Optionee (under this Plan or otherwise), and as a condition of and prior to participation of the Plan any Optionee shall on request authorize the Company in writing to withhold from any remuneration otherwise payable to him or her any amounts required by any taxing authority to be withheld for taxes of any kind as a consequence of his or her participation in the Plan. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates shall be held responsible for any tax consequences to an Optionee as a result of the Optionee's participation in the Plan.

Any amendments to the Plan or options granted thereunder will be subject to the approval of the shareholders.

| 6.6 | Form of Notice

A notice given to the Company shall be in writing, signed by the Optionee and delivered to the head business office of the Company.

| 6.7 | No Representation or Warranty

The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the future market value of any Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

| 6.8 | Compliance with Applicable Law

If any provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement contravenes any law or any order, policy, by-law or regulation of any regulatory body or Exchanges having authority over the Company or the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to bring such provision into compliance therewith.

| 6.9 | No Assignment

No Optionee may assign any of his or her rights under the Plan or any Option granted thereunder.

| 6.10 | Rights of Optionees

An Optionee shall have no rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company in respect of any of the Unissued Option Shares (including, without limitation, voting rights or any right to receive dividends, warrants or rights under any rights offering).

| 6.11 | Conflict

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Plan and an Option Agreement, the provisions of this Plan shall govern.

- 13 -

| 6.12 | Governing Law

The Plan and each Option Agreement issued pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.

| 6.13 | Time of Essence

Time is of the essence of this Plan and of each Option Agreement. No extension of time will be deemed to be or to operate as a waiver of the essentiality of time.

| (5) | Unless the court orders otherwise, if a person on whose behalf dissent is being exercised in relation to a particular corporate action fails to ensure that every shareholder who is a registered owner of any of the shares beneficially owned by that person complies with subsection (1) of this section, the right of shareholders who are registered owners of shares beneficially owned by that person to dissent on behalf of that person with respect to that corporate action terminates and this Division, other than section 247, ceases to apply to those shareholders in respect of the shares that are beneficially owned by that person.

| (6) | A dissenter who has complied with subsection (1) of this section may not vote, or exercise or assert any rights of a shareholder, in respect of the notice shares, other than under this Division.

Payment for notice shares

245 | (1) | A company and a dissenter who has complied with section 244 (1) may agree on the amount of the payout value of the notice shares and, in that event, the company must

E-9

Appendix “F”

Certain Corporate Differences Between BCBCA and OBCA

The provisions of the OBCA dealing with shareholder rights and protections are generally comparable to those contained in the BCBCA. NAN Shareholders will not lose or gain any significant rights or protections as a result of the Continuance.

The following is a summary comparison of the provisions of the OBCA and the BCBCA which pertain to the rights of NAN Shareholders. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not cover all of the differences between the OBCA and the BCBCA affecting corporations and their shareholders and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the relevant provisions of the BCBCA and the OBCA. Upon completion of the Continuance, the rights of NAN Shareholders will also be subject to the Articles and by-laws of the Resulting Issuer, as set forth in further detail below. NAN Shareholders should consult their legal advisors regarding all of the implications of the Continuance. Notwithstanding the alteration of NAN Shareholders' rights and obligations under the OBCA and the articles of incorporation and by-laws for NAN, NAN will still be bound by the rules and policies of the Exchange as well as the applicable securities legislation.

Charter Documents

Under the BCBCA, charter documents consist of a "Notice of Articles", which sets forth, among other things, the name of a company and the amount and type of authorized capital, and "Articles" which govern the management of the company. The Notice of Articles is filed with the Registrar of Companies and the Articles are filed only with the company's registered and records office.

Under the OBCA, a corporation has "articles", which set forth the name of the corporation and the amount and type of authorized capital, and "by-laws" which govern the management of the corporation. The articles are filed with the Director under the OBCA and the bylaws are filed with the corporation's registered and records office.

Therefore, the current articles of NAN are suitable for a company governed by the BCBCA but not for a corporation governed by the OBCA, and will have to be changed to new by-laws that are suitable for an Ontario corporation. The repeal of the Existing Articles of NAN will be approved, if thought fit, by the directors, subject to the prior completion of the Continuance. Upon the Continuance becoming effective, the former articles of NAN will be repealed and replaced with the Articles of Continuance.

Sale of a Corporation's Undertaking

The OBCA requires approval of the holders of two-thirds of the shares of a corporation represented at a duly called meeting to approve a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of the corporation, other than in the ordinary course of business. If a sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of a corporation would affect a particular class series of shares in a manner that is different than the shares of another class of serious entitled to vote, then such class or series of shares are entitled to a separate class or series of shares are entitled to a separate class or series vote, regardless of whether or not such shares otherwise carry the right to vote.

Under the BCBCA, the directors of a company may dispose of all or substantially all of the business or undertaking of the company only if it is in the ordinary course of the company's business or with shareholder approval authorized by special resolution. Under the BCBCA, a special resolution requires the approval of a "special majority", which means the majority specified in a company's articles of at least two-thirds and not more than by three-quarters of the votes cast by those shareholders voting in person or by proxy at a general meeting of the company, or, if the company's articles do not specify, by two-thirds of the votes cast by those shareholders voting in person or by proxy at a general meeting of the company.

F-1

Amendment to Charter Documents of a Corporation

Under the OBCA, substantive changes to the charter documents of a corporation require a resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders voting on the resolution authorizing the alteration and, where certain specified rights of the holders of a class of shares are affected differently by the alteration than the rights of the holders of other classes of shares, a resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the holders of all of the shares of a corporation, whether or not they carry the right to vote, and a special resolution of each such class, or series, as the case may be, even if such class or series is not otherwise entitled to vote. A resolution to amalgamate an OBCA corporation requires a special resolution passed by the holders of each class of shares or series of shares, whether or not such shares otherwise carry the right to vote, if such class or series of shares are affected differently.

Changes to the articles of a company under the BCBCA are affected by the type of resolution specified either in the BCBCA or the articles of the company, which, for many alterations, including change of name or certain alterations to the articles, could provide for approval solely by a resolution of the directors. In the absence of anything in the articles, most corporate alterations will require a special resolution. Alteration of the special rights and restrictions attached to issued shares requires, in addition to any shareholder resolution provided for by the articles, consent by a special separate resolution of the holders of the class or series of shares affected. A proposed amalgamation or continuation of a company out of the jurisdiction requires a special resolution as described above.

Rights of Dissent and Appraisal

The BCBCA provides that shareholders, including beneficial holders, who dissent from certain actions being taken by a company, may exercise a right of dissent and require the company to purchase the shares held by such shareholders at the fair value of such shares. The Dissent Right is applicable where the company proposes to, among other things:

| · | alter the Articles to alter restrictions on the powers of the company or on the business it is permitted to carry on;

| · | adopt an amalgamation agreement;

| · | approve an amalgamation under Division 4 of Part 9 of the BCBCA;

| · | approve an arrangement, the terms of which arrangement permit dissent;

| · | authorize or ratify the sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the company’s undertaking; and

| · | authorize the continuation of the company into a jurisdiction other than British Columbia.

The OBCA contains a similar dissent remedy, although the procedure for exercising this remedy is different from that contained in the BCBCA.

Oppression Remedies

Under the OBCA, a shareholder, beneficial shareholder, former shareholder or beneficial shareholder, director, former director, officer, former officer of a corporation or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person who, in the discretion of a court, is a proper Person to seek an oppression remedy, and in the case of an offering corporation, the Ontario Securities Commission, may apply to a court for an order to rectify the matters complained of where in respect of a corporation or any of its Affiliates, any act or omission of a corporation or its Affiliates effects a result, the business or affairs of a corporation or its Affiliates are or have been exercised in a manner that is oppressive or unfairly prejudicial to, or that unfairly disregards the interest of, any securityholder, creditor, director or officer.

F-2

The oppression remedy under the BCBCA is similar to the remedy found in the OBCA, with a few differences. Under the OBCA, the applicant can complain not only about acts of the corporation and its directors but also the acts of an Affiliate of the corporation and the Affiliate’s directors, whereas under the BCBCA, the shareholder can only complain of oppressive conduct of the company. In addition, under the BCBCA the applicant must bring the application in a “timely manner”, which is not required under the OBCA.

Shareholder Derivative Actions

Under the BCBCA, a shareholder, including a beneficial shareholder or a director of a company may, with leave of the court, bring an action in the name and on behalf of the company to enforce a right, duty or obligation owed to the company that could be enforced by the company itself or to obtain damages for any breach of such right, duty or obligation. An applicant may also, with leave of the court, defend a legal proceeding brought against a company.

A broader right to bring a derivative action is contained in the OBCA and this right extends to officers, former shareholders, directors or officers of a corporation or its Affiliates, and any Person who, in the discretion of the court, is a proper person to make an application to court to bring a derivative action. In addition, the OBCA permits derivative actions to be commenced in the name and on behalf of a corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.

Requisition of Meetings

The OBCA permits the holders of not less than 5% of the issued shares of a corporation that carry the right to vote at a meeting sought to be held to require the directors to call and hold a meeting of the shareholders of the corporation for the purposes stated in the requisition. If the directors do not call a meeting within 21 days of receiving the requisition, any shareholder who signed the requisition may call the meeting.

The BCBCA provides that one or more shareholders of a company holding not less than 5% of the issued voting shares of the company may give notice to the directors requiring them to call and hold a general meeting which meeting must be held within 4 months.

Place of Meetings

The OBCA provides that meetings of shareholders may be held either inside or outside the Province of Ontario as the directors of the applicable corporation may determine.

The BCBCA requires all in-person meetings of shareholders to be held in British Columbia unless a location outside British Columbia is provided for in the company’s articles, approved in writing by the registrar under the BCBCA, or, if the articles do not restrict the company from holding meetings outside of British Columbia, by a resolution required by the articles or the BCBCA for that purpose.

Directors

The OBCA requires that at least 25% of a corporation’s directors be resident Canadians, and if a corporation has less than four directors, the board of the corporation must have at least one resident Canadian director. Like the BCBCA, the OBCA provides that a public company must have at least three directors.

The BCBCA provides that a public company must have at least three directors but does not have any residency requirements for a company’s board of directors

F-3

BCBCA Rights of Dissent in Respect of the Continuance Resolution

NAN Shareholders may, subject to compliance with certain conditions, dissent from the Continuance Resolution and be entitled to be paid the fair value for their NAN Shares in accordance with Section 309 of the BCBCA. Registered NAN Shareholders who wish to dissent should seek the advice of legal advisors and carefully read the provisions of Section 309 and Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA.

The following description of the rights of the NAN Dissenting Shareholders in connection with the Continuance is not a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a NAN Dissenting Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of such NAN Shares and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA.

A NAN Shareholder who intends to exercise BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of Section 242 of the BCBCA. Failure to comply with the provisions of that section and to adhere to the procedures established therein may result in the loss of all rights thereunder.

Persons who are Beneficial Owners of NAN Shares registered in the name of a broker, custodian, nominee or other Intermediary who wish to dissent should be aware that only the registered owner of such NAN Shares is entitled to dissent. Accordingly, a Beneficial Owner of NAN Shares desiring to exercise his, her or its BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights must make arrangements for the NAN Shares beneficially owned by him, her or it to be registered in his, her or its name prior to the time the written objection to the Continuance Resolution is required to be received by NAN or, alternatively, make arrangements for the registered holder of his, her or its NAN Shares to dissent on his, her or its behalf. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to dissent should contact their broker or other Intermediary for assistance with exercising their BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights.

A NAN Dissenting Shareholder must send to NAN a written objection to the Continuance Resolution from which such NAN Shareholder is dissenting. The written objection must be received by NAN at the head office of NAN, being Suite 2500, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2X8, not later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on June 21, 2022. A NAN Shareholder who wishes to dissent must prepare a separate Notice of Dissent for (i) the NAN Shareholder, if the NAN Shareholder is dissenting on his, her or its own behalf; and (ii) each Person who beneficially owns NAN Shares in the Shareholder’s name and on whose behalf the NAN Shareholder is dissenting. To be valid, a Dissent Notice must:

| (a) | identify in each Dissent Notice the Person on whose behalf dissent is being exercised;

| (b) | set out the number of NAN Shares in respect of which the NAN Dissenting Shareholder is exercising the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights (the “Continuance Notice Shares”), which number cannot be less than all of the NAN Shares held by the NAN Shareholder on whose behalf the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights are being exercised;

| (c) | if the Continuance Notice Shares constitute all of the NAN Shares of which the NAN Dissenting Shareholder is both the registered owner and beneficial owner and the NAN Dissenting Shareholder owns no other NAN Shares as beneficial owner, a statement to that effect;

| (d) | if the Continuance Notice Shares constitute all of the NAN Shares of which the NAN Dissenting Shareholder is the registered and beneficial owner but the NAN Dissenting Shareholder owns other NAN Shares as just a beneficial owner, a statement to that effect, and

| (i) | the names of the registered owners of those other NAN Shares,

| (ii) | the number, and the class and series, if applicable, of those other NAN Shares that are held by each of those registered owners, and

| (iii) | a statement that Continuance Dissent Notices are being or have been sent in respect of all those other NAN Shares;

F-4

| (e) | if a right of dissent is being exercised by the NAN Dissenting Shareholder on behalf of a beneficial NAN Shareholder who is not the NAN Dissenting Shareholder, a statement to that effect, and

| (i) | the name and address of the beneficial NAN Shareholder, and

| (ii) | a statement that the NAN Dissenting Shareholder is dissenting in relation to all of the NAN Shares beneficially owned by the NAN Shareholder that are registered in the NAN Dissenting Shareholder’s name.

The giving of a Continuance Dissent Notice does not deprive a NAN Dissenting Shareholder of his, her or its right to vote at the Meeting on the Continuance Resolution. A vote against the Continuance Resolution or the execution or exercise of a proxy does not constitute a Continuance Dissent Notice. A NAN Shareholder is not entitled to exercise the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Right with respect to any NAN Shares if the NAN Shareholder votes (or instructs or is deemed, by submission of any incomplete proxy, to have instructed his, her or its proxyholder to vote) FOR the Continuance Resolution. A NAN Dissenting Shareholder, however, may vote as a proxy for a NAN Shareholder whose proxy required an affirmative vote, without affecting his, her or its right to exercise the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights.

If NAN intends to act on the authority of the Continuance Resolution, it must send a notice (the “Notice to Proceed”) to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder promptly after the later of:

| (a) | the date on which NAN forms the intention to proceed; and

| (b) | the date on which the Continuance Dissent Notice was received.

If NAN has acted on the Continuance Resolution, it must promptly send a Notice to Proceed to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder. The Notice to Proceed must be dated not earlier than the date on which it is sent and state that NAN intends to act or has acted on the authority of the Continuance Resolution and advise the NAN Dissenting Shareholder of the manner in which dissent is to be completed.

On receiving a Notice to Proceed, the NAN Dissenting Shareholder is entitled to require NAN to purchase all of the NAN Shares in respect of which the Continuance Dissent Notice was given.

A NAN Dissenting Shareholder who receives a Notice to Proceed, and who wishes to proceed with the dissent, must send the following to NAN within one month after the date of the Notice to Proceed:

| (a) | a written statement that the NAN Dissenting Shareholder requires NAN to purchase all of the Continuance Notice Shares;

| (b) | the certificate(s) representing the Continuance Notice Shares; and

| (c) | if dissent is being exercised by the NAN Dissenting Shareholder on behalf of a beneficial NAN Shareholder who is not the NAN Dissenting Shareholder, a written statement signed by the beneficial NAN Shareholder setting out whether the beneficial NAN Shareholder is the beneficial owner of other NAN Shares, and if so, setting out:

| (i) | the names of the registered owners of those other NAN Shares;

| (ii) | the number, and the class and series, if applicable, of those other NAN Shares that are held by each of those registered owners; and

| (iii) | that the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights are being exercised in respect of all of those other NAN Shares, whereupon NAN is bound to purchase them in accordance with the Continuance Dissent Notice.

F-5

NAN and the NAN Dissenting Shareholder may agree on the amount of the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares and in that event, NAN must either promptly pay that amount to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder or send a notice to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder that NAN is unable lawfully to pay NAN Dissenting Shareholders for their Continuance Notice Shares as NAN is insolvent or if the payment would render NAN insolvent.

If NAN and the NAN Dissenting Shareholder do not agree on the amount of the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares, the NAN Dissenting Shareholder or NAN may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction and the court may:

| (a) | determine the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares or order that the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares be established by arbitration or by reference to the registrar or a referee of the court;

| (b) | join in the application each NAN Dissenting Shareholder who has not agreed with NAN on the amount of the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares; and

| (c) | make consequential orders and give directions it considers appropriate.

Promptly after a determination of the payout value of the Continuance Notice Shares has been made, NAN must either pay that amount to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder or send a notice to the NAN Dissenting Shareholder that NAN is unable lawfully to pay NAN Dissenting Shareholders for their Continuance Notice Shares as NAN is insolvent or if the payment would render NAN insolvent. If the NAN Dissenting Shareholder receives a notice that NAN is unable to lawfully pay NAN Dissenting Shareholders for their Continuance Notice Shares, the NAN Dissenting Shareholder may, within 30 days after receipt, withdraw his, her or its Dissent Notice. If his, her, or its Dissent Notice is not withdrawn, the NAN Dissenting Shareholder remains a claimant against NAN to be paid as soon as NAN is lawfully able to do so or, in a liquidation, to be ranked subordinate to the rights of creditors of NAN but in priority to the other NAN Shareholders.

Any notice required to be given by NAN or a NAN Dissenting Shareholder to the other in connection with the exercise of the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights will be deemed to have been given and received, if delivered, on the day of delivery, or, if mailed, on the earlier of the date of receipt and the second Business Day after the day of mailing, or, if sent by facsimile or other similar form of transmission, the first Business Day after the date of transmittal.

A Dissenting Shareholder who:

| (a) | properly exercises the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights by strictly complying with all of the Dissent Procedures required to be complied with by a NAN Dissenting Shareholder, will cease to have any rights as a NAN Shareholder other than the right to be paid the fair value of the Continuance Notice Shares by NAN in accordance with the Dissent Procedures; or

| (b) | seeks to exercise the BCBCA Continuance Dissent Rights, but who for any reason does not properly comply with each of the Dissent Procedures required to be complied with by a NAN Dissenting Shareholder, will lose such right to dissent.

At such adjourned meeting the holders of Preferred Shares present or represented by proxy may transact the business for which 50% of the votes cast at such meeting shall constitute the approval of the holders of the Preferred Shares; and

Subject to the foregoing, the formalities to be observed in respect of the giving or waiving of notice of any such meeting and the conduct there shall be those from time to time prescribed in the Articles of the Corporation with respect to meetings of members.

Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares:

1. Definitions

“Common Shares” means the Common Shares without par value of the Corporation; and

“Conversion Value” means $1 per Series 1 Convertible Preferred Share.

2. Dividends

The Corporation shall not declare or pay any dividends on the Common Shares unless it shall, at the same time, declare and pay dividends on the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares in the same amounts to which a holder of such number of Common Shares would have been entitled if the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares had been converted into Common Shares immediately prior to the declaration and payment of such dividend.

3. Voting

The holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive notice of, and to attend at all general meetings of the Corporation, but shall not be entitled to vote at such meetings. The holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to vote at all meetings of the holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares and shall have one (1) vote for each Series 1 Convertible Preferred Share held.

4. Conversion

| A. | The Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares shall be convertible at any time after the expiry of six (6) months from the date of their issuance upon the holder serving the Corporation with ten (10) days written notice. The number of Common Shares to be issued on the conversion of any of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares shall be equal to the result obtained by dividing the aggregate Conversion Value of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares to be converted by the greater of

| i) | $[9.00]1;

| ii) | the average closing price of the Corporation’s shares on the Canadian stock exchange on which the shares of the Corporation principally trade over the two-week period preceding the date of receipt of the conversion notice; and

| iii) | the average closing price of the Corporation’s shares on the Ontario Over-the-Counter Market over the two-week period preceding the date of receipt of the conversion notice.

No fractional shares shall be issued on the conversion of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares and any such fractions resulting from the conversion shall be cancelled.

| 1 | Note: To be adjusted to $45.00 assuming the 5:1 Consolidation is implemented.

| B. | The conversion privilege herein provided for may only be exercised by notice in writing given to the Corporation accompanied by the certificate or certificates for Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares in respect of which the holder thereof desires to exercise such right of conversion and such notice shall be signed by the person registered on the books of the Corporation as the holder of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares in respect of which such right is being exercised or by his duly authorized attorney and shall specify the number of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares which the holder desires to have converted. Upon the Corporation receiving such notice, the Corporation shall issue certificates for Common Shares at the applicable conversion rate herein described and in accordance with the provisions hereof to the registered holder of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares represented by the certificate or certificates accompanying such notice.

| C. | Upon conversion of any Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares, the Corporation shall make no payment or adjustment on account of any accumulated or unpaid dividends on the certificates which are surrendered for conversion or on, account of any dividends on the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion.

| D. | In case of any reclassification, change, consolidation, or subdivision of the Common Shares on or prior to conversion or in case of any amalgamation, consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other Corporation, or in the case of any sale of the properties and assets of the Corporation as, or substantially as, an entirety to any, other Corporation, each Series 1 Convertible Preferred Share shall, after such reclassification, change, consolidation, subdivision, amalgamation, merger or sale, be convertible into the number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation, or such continuing, successor or purchasing Corporation, as the case may be, to which a holder of such number of Common Shares as would have been issued if such Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares had been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, subdivision, amalgamation, merger or sale would have been entitled upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, subdivision, amalgamation, merger or sale.

| E. | Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares which are converted in accordance with this Article shall be, and shall be deemed to be, cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares, and shall not be re-issued as Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares.

5. Amendments

The rights, conditions and limitations attached to the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares may be amended, modified, suspended, altered or repealed but only if consented to, or approved by the holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares, and in the manner hereinafter specified and in accordance with any requirements of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

6. Approval

Any consent or approval required by the provisions of these Articles of Continuance to be given by the holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given by a resolution passed at a meeting of holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares, duly called and held upon not less than twenty-one (21) days notice to the holder at which the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares are present or are represented by proxy and carried by the affirmative vote of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the votes cast at such meeting. If at any such meeting the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares are not present or represented, by proxy within one-half hour After the time appointed for such meeting, then the meeting shall be adjourned to such date not less than fifteen (15) days thereafter and to such time and place as may be designated by the Chairman, and not less than ten (10) days’ written notice shall be given of such adjourned meeting but it shall not be necessary in such notice to specify the purpose of which the meeting was originally called. At such adjourned meeting the holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares present or represented by proxy may transact the business for which the meeting was originally convened and a resolution passed thereat by the affirmative vote of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the votes cast at such adjourned meeting shall constitute the consent or approval of the holder of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares. Subject to the foregoing, the formalities to be observed in respect of the giving or waiving of notice of any such meeting and the conduct thereof shall be those from time to time prescribed by the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), or as set out in the Articles of the Corporation.

7. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in the event of any other distribution of assets of the Corporation among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, the holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares shall be entitled, if such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or other distribution of assets shall occur, to receive the remaining property of the Corporation upon liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other distribution on the same basis as the holders of the Common Shares of the Corporation as if such Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares had been converted into Common Shares immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other distribution.

8. Notices

Any notice required to be given under the provisions attaching to the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Shares to the holders thereof shall be given by posting the same in a postage prepaid envelope addressed to each holder at the last address of such holder appearing in the register of members or, in the event of such address not so appearing, then to the address of such holder last known to the Corporation; provided that accidental failure or omission to give notice as aforesaid to one or more of such holders shall not invalidate any action or proceeding founded thereon.

Section 5
MEETINGS OF DIRECTORS

| 5.1 | Place of Meeting

Unless the articles otherwise provide, meetings of directors and of any committee of directors may be held at any place within or outside Ontario, and in any financial year of the Corporation, a majority of the meetings of the board of directors need not be held at a place within Canada. A meeting of directors may be convened by the Chairman of the Board (if any), the President (if any) or any director at any time and the Secretary (if any) or any other officer or any director shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a direction from any of the foregoing, send a notice of the applicable meeting to the directors. A quorum of the directors may, at any time, call a meeting of the directors for the transaction of any business the general nature of which is specified in the notice calling the meeting.

| 5.2 | Notice

Notice of the time and place for the holding of any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors shall be sent to each director, or each director who is a member of such committee, as the case may be, not less than 48 hours before the time of the meeting; provided that a meeting of directors, or of any committee of directors, may be held at any time without notice if all the directors or members of such committee are present (except where a director attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called) or if all the absent directors waive notice of the meeting.

For the first meeting of directors to be held following the election of directors at an annual or special meeting of the shareholders or for a meeting of directors at which a director is appointed to fill a vacancy in the board, no notice of such meeting need be given to the newly elected or appointed director or directors in order for the meeting to be duly constituted, provided a quorum of the directors is present.

| 5.3 | Waiver of Notice

Notice of any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors or the time for the giving of any such notice or any irregularity in any meeting or in the notice thereof may be waived by any director in writing or by facsimile or electronic mail addressed to the Corporation or in any other manner, and any such waiver may be validly given either before or after the meeting to which such waiver relates. Attendance of a director at any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors is a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called.

| 5.4 | Omission of Notice

The accidental omission to give notice of any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors or the non-receipt of any notice by any person shall not invalidate any resolution passed or any proceeding taken at such meeting.

| 5.5 | Electronic, Telephone Participation Etc.

If all of the directors of the Corporation consent, a director may participate in a meeting of directors or of any committee of directors by means of a telephonic, electronic or other communication facility that permits all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously. A director's consent shall be effective whether given before or after the meeting to which it relates and may be given with respect to all meetings of the board or a committee thereof held while the director holds office. A director participating in such a meeting by such means is deemed for the purposes of the Act and this by-law to be present at that meeting.

- 6 -

| 5.6 | Adjournment

Any meeting of directors or of any committee of directors may be adjourned from time to time by the chairman of the meeting, with the consent of the meeting, to a fixed time and place. Notice of an adjourned meeting of directors or committee of directors is not required to be given if the time and place of the adjourned meeting is announced at the original meeting. Any adjourned meeting shall be duly constituted if held in accordance with the terms of the adjournment and a quorum is present thereat. The directors who formed a quorum at the original meeting are not required to form the quorum at the adjourned meeting. If there is no quorum present at the adjourned meeting, the original meeting shall be deemed to have terminated forthwith after its adjournment. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at the adjourned meeting that might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same.

| 5.7 | Quorum and Voting

A majority of the number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If the Corporation has fewer than three directors, all of the directors must be present at any meeting of directors to constitute a quorum. Subject to subsection 124(1) of the Act, directors shall not transact business at a meeting of directors unless a quorum is present. Questions arising at any meeting of directors shall be decided by a majority of votes. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairman of the meeting in addition to his or her original vote shall not have a second or casting vote.

| 5.8 | Resolution in Lieu of Meeting

A resolution in writing, signed by all the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of directors or a committee of directors, is as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of directors or a committee of directors. A resolution in writing dealing with all matters required by the Act or this by-law to be dealt with at a meeting of directors, and signed by all the directors entitled to vote at that meeting, satisfies all the requirements of the Act and this by-law relating to meetings of directors.

Section 6

| 6.1 | General

The directors may from time to time appoint from their number a managing director, or a committee of directors, and may delegate to such managing director or such committee any of the powers of the directors, except that (unless the Act otherwise permits) no managing director or committee shall have the authority to:

Section 7
REMUNERATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES

Subject to the articles, the directors of the Corporation may fix the remuneration of the directors, officers and employees of the Corporation. Any remuneration paid to a director of the Corporation shall be in addition to the salary paid to such director in his or her capacity as an officer or employee of the Corporation. The directors may also by resolution award special remuneration to any director in undertaking any special services on the Corporation's behalf other than the routine work ordinarily required of a director of the Corporation. The confirmation of any such resolution by the shareholders shall not be required. The directors, officers and employees shall also be entitled to be paid their travelling and other expenses properly incurred by them in connection with the affairs of the Corporation.

Section 8

Section 9
CONFLICT OF INTEREST

A director or officer of the Corporation who is a party to a material contract or transaction or proposed material contract or proposed transaction with the Corporation, or who is a director or an officer of, or has a material interest in, any person who is a party to a material contract or transaction or proposed material contract or proposed transaction with the Corporation, shall disclose, in writing to the Corporation or by requesting to have entered in the minutes of meetings of directors, the nature and extent of his or her interest at the time and in the manner provided in the Act. Except as provided in the Act, no such director of the Corporation shall attend any part of a meeting of directors during which the contract or transaction is discussed, and no such director shall vote on any resolution to approve such contract or transaction. If a material contract is made or a material transaction is entered into between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and another person of which a director or officer of the Corporation is a director or officer or in which he or she has a material interest, the director or officer is not accountable to the Corporation or its shareholders for any profit or gain realized from the contract or transaction, and the contract is neither void nor voidable, by reason only of that relationship or by reason only that a director is present at or is counted to determine the presence of a quorum at the meeting of directors that authorized the contract or transaction, if the director or officer disclosed his or her interest in accordance with the Act, and the contract or transaction was reasonable and fair to the Corporation at the time it was approved.

Even if these conditions are not met, a director or officer, acting honestly and in good faith, is not accountable to the Corporation or to its shareholders for any profit or gain realized from any such contract or transaction, by reason only of his or her holding the office of director or officer, and the contract or transaction, if it was reasonable and fair to the Corporation at the time it was approved, is not by reason only of the director's or officer's interest therein void or voidable, where the contract or transaction is confirmed or approved by special resolution at a meeting of the shareholders duly called for that purpose, and the nature and extent of the director's or officer's interest in the contract or transaction are disclosed in reasonable detail in the notice calling the meeting or in the information circular.

Section 10
FOR THE PROTECTION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

No director or officer of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director or officer or employee or for joining in any receipt or act for conformity or for any loss, damage or expense happening to the Corporation through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by the Corporation or for or on behalf of the Corporation or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the monies of or belonging to the Corporation shall be placed out or invested or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person, firm or corporation including any person, firm or corporation with whom or which any monies, securities or effects shall be lodged or deposited or for any loss, conversion, misapplication or misappropriation of or any damage resulting from any dealings with any monies, securities or other assets belonging to the Corporation or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatever that may happen in the execution of the duties of such director's or officer's respective office of trust or in relation thereto, unless the same shall happen by or through the director's or officer's failure to exercise the powers and to discharge the duties of office honestly, in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation, and in connection therewith to exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances, provided that nothing herein contained shall relieve a director or officer from the duty to act in accordance with the Act or relieve such director or officer from liability under the Act. If any director or officer of the Corporation shall be employed by or shall perform services for the Corporation otherwise than as a director or officer or shall be a member of a firm or a shareholder, director or officer of a body corporate which is employed by or performs services for the Corporation, the fact that the director or officer is a shareholder, director or officer of the Corporation or body corporate or member of the firm shall not disentitle such director or officer or such firm or body corporate, as the case may be, from receiving proper remuneration for such services.

Section 11

| (1) | The Corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation, a former director or officer of the Corporation or another individual who acts or acted at the Corporation's request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, or any other individual permitted by the Act to be so indemnified in the manner and to the fullest extent permitted by the Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to section 136 of the Act, the Corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation, a former director or officer of the Corporation or another individual who acts or acted at the Corporation's request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including costs incurred in the defence of an action or proceeding and an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Corporation or other entity.

Subject to the Act and Section 13.11, every question submitted to any meeting of shareholders shall be decided on a show of hands, except when a ballot is required by the chairman of the meeting or is demanded by a shareholder or proxyholder entitled to vote at the meeting or is otherwise required by the Act. A shareholder or proxyholder may demand a ballot either before or after any vote by a show of hands.

Upon any ballot at which shareholders are entitled to vote, each shareholder present on his or her own behalf or by proxy shall (subject to the provisions, if any, of the articles) have one vote for every share registered in the name of such shareholder. In the case of an equality of votes under this Section, the chairman of the meeting shall not have a second or casting vote in addition to the vote or votes to which he or she may be entitled as a shareholder or proxyholder.

- 15 -

At any meeting of shareholders, unless a ballot is demanded, an entry in the minutes of a meeting of shareholders, following a vote on the applicable motion by a show of hands, to the effect that the chairman of the meeting declared a motion to be carried is admissible in evidence as proof of the fact, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against the motion, although the chairman may direct that a record be kept of the number or proportion of votes in favour of or against the motion for any purpose the chairman of the meeting considers appropriate.

If at any meeting a ballot is demanded on the election of a chairman for the meeting or on the question of adjournment or termination, the ballot shall be taken forthwith without adjournment. If a ballot is demanded on any other question or as to the election of directors, the ballot shall be taken in such manner and either at once or later at the meeting or after adjournment as the chairman of the meeting directs. The result of a ballot shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the ballot was demanded. A demand for a ballot may be withdrawn.

| 13.12 | Right to Vote

Unless the articles otherwise provide, each share of the Corporation entitles the holder thereof to one vote at a meeting of shareholders.

Where a body corporate or a trust, association or other unincorporated organization is a shareholder of the Corporation, any individual authorized by a resolution of the directors of the body corporate or the directors, trustees or other governing body of the association, trust or unincorporated organization, to represent it at meetings of shareholders of the Corporation shall be recognized as the person entitled to vote at all such meetings of shareholders in respect of the shares held by such body corporate or by such trust, association or other unincorporated organization and the chairman of the meeting may establish or adopt rules or procedures in relation to the recognition of a person to vote shares held by such body corporate or by such trust, association or other unincorporated organization.

Where a person holds shares as a personal representative, such person or his or her proxy is the person entitled to vote at all meetings of shareholders in respect of the shares so held by him or her, and the chairman of the meeting may establish or adopt rules or procedures in relation to the recognition of such person to vote the shares in respect of which such person has been appointed as a personal representative.

Where a person mortgages, pledges or hypothecates his or her shares, such person or such person's proxy is the person entitled to vote at all meetings of shareholders in respect of such shares so long as such person remains the registered owner of such shares unless, in the instrument creating the mortgage, pledge or hypothec, the person has expressly empowered the person holding the mortgage, pledge or hypothec to vote in respect of such shares, in which case, subject to the articles, such holder or such holder's proxy is the person entitled to vote in respect of the shares and the chairman of the meeting may establish or adopt rules or procedures in relation to the recognition of the person holding the mortgage, pledge or hypothec as the person entitled to vote in respect of the applicable shares.

- 16 -

Where two or more persons hold shares jointly, one of those holders present at a meeting of shareholders may in the absence of the others vote the shares, but if two or more of those persons are present on their own behalf or by proxy, vote, they shall vote as one on the shares jointly held by them and the chairman of the meeting may establish or adopt rules or procedures in that regard.

| 13.13 | Proxies

Every shareholder, including a shareholder that is a body corporate or a trust, association or other unincorporated organization, entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders may by means of a proxy appoint a proxyholder or one or more alternate proxyholders, who are not required to be shareholders, to attend and act at the meeting in the manner and to the extent authorized by the proxy and with the authority conferred by the proxy.

An instrument appointing a proxyholder shall be in written or printed form or a format generated by telephonic or electronic means and shall be completed and executed, in writing or electronic signature, by the shareholder or by his or her duly authorized attorney and shall conform with the requirements of the Act and is valid only at the meeting in respect of which it is given or any adjournment of that meeting. So long as the Corporation remains an "offering corporation", as defined in the Act, a proxy appointing a proxyholder to attend and act at a meeting or meetings of shareholders ceases to be valid one year from its date.

The directors may, by resolution, fix a time and specify in a notice calling a meeting of shareholders the time not exceeding 48 hours, excluding Saturdays and holidays, preceding the meeting of shareholders or an adjournment of the meeting of shareholders before which time proxies to be used at that meeting must be deposited with the Corporation or its agent.

The chairman shall conduct the proceedings at the meeting and the chairman's decision in any matter or thing, including, without limitation, any question regarding the validity or invalidity of any instruments of proxy and any question as to the admission or rejection of a vote, shall be conclusive and binding upon the shareholders.

| 13.14 | Adjournment

Subject to the Act or the articles, the chairman of the meeting may, with the consent of the meeting and subject to such conditions as the meeting decides, adjourn the meeting of shareholders from time to time and from place to place. If the meeting of shareholders is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of less than 30 days, it is not necessary to give notice of the adjourned meeting other than by announcement at the earliest meeting that is adjourned. If the meeting of shareholders is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of 30 days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as for an original meeting but, unless the meeting is adjourned by one or more adjournments for an aggregate of more than 90 days, section 111 of the Act does not apply.

Any adjourned meeting shall be duly constituted if held in accordance with the terms of the adjournment and a quorum is present thereat. The persons who formed a quorum at the original meeting are not required to form the quorum at the adjourned meeting. If there is no quorum present at the adjourned meeting, the original meeting shall be deemed to have terminated forthwith after its adjournment. Any business may be brought before or dealt with at any adjourned meeting that might have been brought before or dealt with at the original meeting in accordance with the notice calling the same.

- 17 -

| 13.15 | Quorum

Two persons present and holding or representing by proxy at least 10% of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting shall be a quorum. If a quorum is present at the opening of a meeting of shareholders, the shareholders present may proceed with the business of the meeting, notwithstanding that a quorum is not present throughout the meeting. If a quorum is not present at the time appointed for a meeting of shareholders, or within such reasonable time thereafter as the shareholders present may determine, the shareholders present may adjourn the meeting to a fixed time and place but may not transact any other business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation has only one shareholder, or one shareholder holding a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting, that shareholder present on his or her own behalf or by proxy constitutes a meeting and a quorum for such meeting.

| 13.16 | Persons Entitled to be Present

The only persons entitled to be present at a meeting of shareholders shall be those entitled to vote thereat, the directors and auditor of the Corporation and others who, although not entitled to vote, are entitled or required under any provision of the Act or the articles or the by-laws to be present at the meeting. Any other person may be admitted only on the invitation of the chairman of the meeting or with the consent of the meeting.

| 13.17 | Resolution in Lieu of Meeting

A resolution in writing signed by all the shareholders or their attorney authorized in writing entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of shareholders is as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of the shareholders, except where a written statement is submitted by a director under subsection 123(2) of the Act, or where representations in writing are submitted by an auditor under subsection 149(6) of the Act.

Subject to the articles, the directors may from time to time by resolution declare and the Corporation may pay dividends on its issued shares.

| (a) | the Corporation is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due; or

| (b) | the realizable value of the Corporation's assets would thereby be less than the aggregate of its liabilities and its stated capital of all classes.

The mailing of such cheque as aforesaid, unless the same is not paid on due presentation, or the electronic funds transfer as aforesaid, shall satisfy and discharge the liability for the dividend to the extent of the sum represented thereby plus the amount of any tax which the Corporation is required to and does withhold. In the event of non-receipt of any dividend cheque or payment by the person to whom it is sent as aforesaid, the Corporation shall issue to such person a replacement cheque or payment for a like amount on such terms as to indemnity, reimbursement of expenses and evidence of non-receipt and of title as any officer or the directors may from time to time prescribe, whether generally or in any particular case.
