  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We are furnishing this management proxy circular to shareholders of Nicholas Financial, Inc. in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our management for use at a Special Meeting of our shareholders to be held on April 15, 2024 at Noon (Central Time), at the offices of the company&#x2019;s legal counsel, Kutak Rock LLP, located at The Omaha Building, 1650 Farnam Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68102-2186.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">The purpose of the Special Meeting is to obtain shareholder approval to: (1) change our jurisdiction of incorporation by continuation from the provincial jurisdiction of British Columbia, Canada to the State of Delaware in the United States of America and (2) approve the sale of all or substantially all of our undertaking, consisting of automobile finance installment contracts, pursuant to a Master Asset Purchase Agreement with Westlake Services, LLC dba Westlake Financial, a California limited liability company. We refer to the first proposal as the &#x201c;domestication&#x201d; and to the second proposal as the &#x201c;Loan Portfolio Sale&#x201d; throughout this letter and the management proxy circular/prospectus that accompanies it.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We are pursuing the domestication for a number of reasons, the foremost being that we have no significant presence in Canada. Our corporate offices and operations are located in the United States and most of our shareholders reside there. The principal market for our common shares, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, is also in the United States. In addition, domiciling in the United States will eventually enable us to eliminate one level of holding company ownership and streamline our corporate structure. We believe this will reduce our overall professional fees and could lead to better acceptance in the capital markets and greater shareholder value.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We chose the State of Delaware to be our domicile principally because the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, expressly accommodates a continuation authorized by Section 308 of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act, or BCBCA. We also chose the State of Delaware because of the substantial body of case law that has evolved over the years interpreting various provisions of the DGCL. We believe the domestication will not only unambiguously establish us as a U.S. corporation, but it will help us achieve our strategic goals.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">If we complete the domestication, we will continue our legal existence in Delaware as if we had originally been incorporated under Delaware law. In addition, each outstanding common share of Nicholas Financial, Inc. as a British Columbia, Canada corporation will then represent one share of common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc. as a Delaware corporation. Our common shares are currently traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol &#x201c;NICK&#x201d;. Upon the completion of our domestication, our common stock will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol &#x201c;NICK.&#x201d; Further, our management will be comprised of the same directors and executive officers who served in such capacities immediately prior to the domestication.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">The board of directors has determined that the domestication is in the best interests of the shareholders and recommends a vote &#x201c;FOR&#x201d; for the domestication because it believes that the domestication will reduce our overall professional fees, could lead to better acceptance in the capital markets and greater shareholder value, eliminate compliance with both Canadian and U.S. laws, including tax laws, and the substantial body of case law that has evolved over the years interpreting various provisions of the DGCL provides greater certainty.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">If the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal is approved by the requisite vote of our shareholders and the Loan Portfolio Sale closes, we intend to pursue our restructuring plan. We intend to use net proceeds from the sale to either acquire or invest in businesses outside of the Corporation&#x2019;s traditional business. The board of directors intend to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. In exploring and considering potential acquisitions and investments, the Board intends to pursue opportunities that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to our shareholders over time in excess of the amount, if any, the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. The Board currently believes that the long-term interests of shareholders would be best served by the Corporation pursuing the Loan Portfolio Sale, the restructuring plan and other strategic initiatives that the Board may subsequently determine are in the best interests of shareholders.</font></p>

If the loan portfolio is not sold we expect the costs to run off the business will be significant.</font></p>

At such date, 7,290,557 common shares were outstanding. The holders of at least three-fourths of our common shares present at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy (and assuming a quorum of our outstanding common shares are represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy) must vote to: (1) approve the domestication proposal and (2) approve the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal. Shareholders will have the right to dissent to the continuation and the Loan Portfolio Sale under Section 309 of the BCBCA. Dissenting shareholders have the right to be paid the fair value of their shares under Section 245 of the BCBCA. If approved by our shareholders, the domestication is expected to become effective as soon as practicable after the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale. If the Loan Portfolio Sale is not approved by shareholders, we intend to proceed with the completion of the domestication as soon as practicable after the Special Meeting. If the Loan Portfolio Sale is approved by shareholders, but is terminated, we intend to proceed with the completion of the domestication as soon as practicable after the date the Loan Portfolio Sale is terminated. Our board of directors has reserved the right to terminate or abandon our domestication at any time prior to its effectiveness, notwithstanding shareholder approval, in its sole discretion.</font></p>

If the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal is approved by our shareholders and the Loan Portfolio Sale closes, among other things we intend to pursue our restructuring plan. We intend to use net proceeds from the sale to either acquire or invest in businesses outside of the Corporation&#x2019;s traditional business. The board of directors intend to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. In exploring and considering potential acquisitions and investments, the Board intends to pursue opportunities that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to our shareholders over time in excess of the amount, if any, the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. The Board currently believes that the long-term interests of shareholders would be best served by the Corporation pursuing the Loan Portfolio Sale, the restructuring plan and other strategic initiatives that the Board may subsequently determine are in the best interests of shareholders. There can be no assurance that any of these alternatives will result in greater stockholder value than the liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation.

Arrangements will also be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the forwarding of solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares held of record by these persons, and we may reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The cost of such solicitation, estimated to be approximately $25,000, will be borne by us.</font></p>

Under the DGCL, a corporation becomes domesticated in Delaware by filing a certificate of corporate domestication and a certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The domesticated corporation, which will be called Nicholas Financial, Inc., will become subject to the DGCL on the date of its domestication, but will be deemed for the purposes of the DGCL to have commenced its existence in Delaware on the date it originally commenced existence in Canada. The board of directors has approved the domestication, believes it to be in our best interests, and recommends approval. See &#x201c;THE DOMESTICATION.&#x201d;</font></p>

Our corporate offices and operations are located in the United States, most of our shareholders reside there, and the principal market for our common shares is the NASDAQ Global Select Market. In addition, domiciling in the United States may eventually enable us to eliminate one level of holding company ownership (by merging our wholly owned Nicholas Financial-Florida subsidiary with and into Nicholas Financial, Inc, a Delaware corporation.) and streamline our corporate structure. We believe this will lead to greater acceptance in the capital markets, lower accounting and legal fees, and greater shareholder value. We chose the State of Delaware to be our domicile principally because the DGCL expressly accommodates continuations under the BCBCA, and also because of the comprehensive body of case law interpreting the DGCL that has evolved over the years, including case law interpreting the duties and obligations of directors and officers. We believe the domestication will unambiguously establish us as a U.S. corporation and help us achieve our strategic goals. See &#x201c;THE DOMESTICATION- Principal Reasons for the Domestication.&#x201d;</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">The domestication will change the corporate laws that apply to our shareholders from the provincial jurisdiction of British Columbia, Canada to the State of Delaware. There are material differences between the BCBCA and the DGCL. Our shareholders may have more or fewer rights under Delaware law depending on the specific set of circumstances. See &#x201c;THE DOMESTICATION- Comparison of Shareholder Rights.&#x201d;</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We plan to complete the domestication, if approved by shareholders, after the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale (as described in the proxy circular/prospectus), if it occurs; however, we intend to proceed with the domestication, if the requisite shareholder approval is obtained, if the Loan Portfolio Sale does not close. The registrant intends to proceed with the Loan Portfolio Sale, if the requisite shareholder approval is obtained, if the domestication is not completed. The domestication is not conditioned on the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale and the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale is not conditioned on the completion of the domestication. The domestication will be effective on the date set forth in the certificate of corporate domestication and certificate of incorporation, as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Thereafter, Nicholas Financial, Inc. will be subject to the certificate of incorporation filed in Delaware. See &#x201c;THE DOMESTICATION-Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Nicholas Financial, Inc.&#x201d; We will be discontinued in Canada as of the date of the filing of the certificate of corporate domestication and certificate of incorporation in Delaware. After receipt of the certificate of incorporation in Delaware, the Registrar of Companies for British Columbia (the &#x201c;Registrar&#x201d;) will publish in the prescribed manner a notice that the Corporation has been continued into the State of Delaware. However, the board of directors may decide to delay the domestication or not to proceed with the domestication after receiving approval from our shareholders if it determines that the domestication is no longer advisable. The board of directors has not considered any alternative action if the domestication is not approved or if it decides to abandon the domestication.</font></p>

Each outstanding common share at the time of the domestication will remain issued and outstanding as a share of common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc. after our corporate existence is continued from British Columbia, Canada under the BCBCA and domesticated in Delaware under the DGCL. Following the completion of the domestication, Nicholas Financial, Inc.&#x2019;s common stock will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol &#x201c;NICK&#x201d;.

Pursuant to the Treasury Regulations under Internal Revenue Code Section 367, any U.S. holder that owns, directly or through attribution, 10% or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock (which we refer to as a 10% shareholder) will have to recognize a deemed dividend on the domestication equal to the &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount,&#x201d; within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(b) -2, attributable to such holder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation. Any U.S. shareholder that is not a 10% shareholder and whose shares have a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the domestication, will recognize no gain or loss as a result of the domestication. A U.S. shareholder that is not a 10% shareholder but whose shares have a fair market value of at least $50,000 on the date of the domestication must generally recognize gain (but not loss) on the domestication equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Nicholas Financial, Inc. common stock received at the time of the domestication over the shareholder&#x2019;s tax basis in our shares.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p>

  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">Based on all available information, we believe that it is possible that no U.S. shareholder of the Corporation should have a positive &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to such shareholder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation, and that we are not a &#x201c;passive foreign investment company&#x201d; as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and accordingly no U.S. shareholder should be subject to tax on the domestication. Based on our limited activity at the holding company level and its consistent history of losses, we do not believe that a U.S. shareholder should have a positive &#x201c;all earnings and profits&#x201d; amount attributable to such shareholder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation. As a result, we believe that no U.S. shareholder should be required to include any such amount in income as a result of the domestication. However, no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with us. If it does not agree, then a U.S. shareholder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences. A U.S. shareholder&#x2019;s tax basis in the shares of common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc. received in the exchange will be equal to such shareholder&#x2019;s tax basis in the shares of the Corporation, increased by the amount of gain (if any) recognized in connection with the domestication or the amount of the &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; included in income by such U.S. shareholder. A U.S. shareholder&#x2019;s holding period in the shares of common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc. should include the period of time during which such shareholder held his shares in the Corporation, provided that the shares of the Corporation were held as capital assets.</font></p>

Under the Income Tax Act (Canada), or Tax Act, the change in our jurisdiction from Canada to the United States will cause our tax year to end immediately before the domestication. Furthermore, we will be deemed to have disposed of all of our property immediately before the continuation for proceeds of disposition equal to the fair market value of the property at that time. We will be subject to a separate corporate emigration tax imposed equal to the amount by which the fair market value of all of our property (principally consisting of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of our United States operating Florida subsidiary, Nicholas Financial, as well as NDS, as defined below) immediately before the continuation exceeds the aggregate of our liabilities at that time (other than dividends payable and taxes payable in connection with the emigration tax) and the amount of paid-up capital on all of our outstanding common shares.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We have reviewed our assets, liabilities, paid-up capital and other tax balances with the assistance of our professional advisors. Based on our calculations and based on a number of key assumptions, if the market price of our common shares does not exceed $7.00 per share and the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar remains relatively constant at CDN $1.00 equals US $0.75, the domestication is expected to result in the Corporation being liable to Canadian tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act (as defined below) of approximately $1,446,000, but we do not expect to incur any Canadian Part I income tax. This conclusion is based in part on determinations of factual matters and such key assumptions, including determinations regarding the fair market value of our assets and tax attributes, any or all of which could change prior to the effective time of the domestication. If the market price of our common shares exceeds such amount, however, or if the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar appreciably changes or the key assumptions prove to be inaccurate, then we could incur Canadian income taxation as a result of the domestication.

For example, under the BCBCA, a company has the authority to issue an unlimited number of shares whereas, under the DGCL, a Delaware corporation may only issue the number of shares that is authorized by its certificate of incorporation and stockholder approval must be obtained to amend the certificate of incorporation to authorize the issuance of additional shares.

The Corporation divided that fair value amount by 7,290,557 shares of its common stock outstanding to calculate that the implied fair value of the receivables per share of common stock was $9.22 per share The book value per share based on the purchase price under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the closing price of the Corporation&#x2019;s Common Stock on November 13, 2023, the implied net book value of the receivables per share of common stock and the implied fair value of the receivables per share of common stock is not determinative of fair value under the BCBCA for shareholders who dissent to the Loan Portfolio Sale.

The board of directors intends to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. The board currently believes that the long-term interests of shareholders would be best served by the Corporation using the net proceeds from the Loan Portfolio Sale to acquire and invest in other businesses instead of liquidating and distributing the net sales proceeds to shareholders because it believes that such acquisitions and investments will, over time, increase shareholder value to a greater extent than what they would receive in liquidation. The liquidation value of the Corporation was not determined in connection with the Loan Portfolio Sale because we believe that there are inherent uncertainties in establishing that value based on the nature of most of our assets and their deterioration in value. There can be no assurance that any of these acquisitions or investments in other businesses, if made, will result in greater stockholder value than the liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation. See &#x201c;RISK FACTORS- Risks Relating to the Loan Portfolio Sale.&#x201d;  In developing the restructuring plan and considering the Loan Portfolio Sale, the Board considered at length potential strategic alternatives available to us, including identifying available strategic alternatives and transactions involving the Corporation as a whole, such as a merger, reverse merger, sale of assets, strategic partnership or other business combination transaction, that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to our shareholders over time in excess of the amount, if any, the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. See &#x201c;THE LOAN PORTFOLIO SALE- Our Business and Operations Following Approval of the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal.&#x201d; The Board determined that none of these potential strategic alternatives, other than the Loan Portfolio Sale, were viable. Currently, the Board has no plans to liquidate the Corporation&#x2019;s assets and distribute funds from liquidation to the shareholders.

(&#x201c;Nicholas Financial-Canada&#x201d;) is a Canadian holding company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia in 1986. The business activities of Nicholas Financial-Canada are currently conducted exclusively through its wholly owned indirect subsidiary, Nicholas Financial, Inc., a Florida corporation (&#x201c;Nicholas Financial-Florida&#x201d;). Nicholas Financial-Florida is a specialized consumer finance company engaged primarily in acquiring and servicing automobile finance installment contracts for purchases of used and new automobiles and light trucks. Additionally, Nicholas Financial-Florida sells consumer-finance related products and, prior to the end of the third fiscal quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, Nicholas Financial-Florida originated direct consumer loans. The Corporation disclosed in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 that in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Corporation does not intend to continue any significant contract purchases and origination activities, except on a much smaller scale, than it has historically. Nicholas Data Services, Inc. (&#x201c;NDS&#x201d;), is a second Florida subsidiary of Nicholas Financial-Canada and it serves as the intermediate holding company for Nicholas Financial-Florida. NF Funding I, LLC (&#x201c;NF Funding I&#x201d;), was a wholly owned, special purpose financing subsidiary of Nicholas Financial-Florida, but that subsidiary no longer served any purpose and, as a result, it was dissolved prior to the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, Nicholas Financial-Florida owned 5,367,888 shares of common stock of Nicholas Financial-Canada.</font></p>

Jeremiah Gross, No. 21CY-CV02148-01, 7th Judicial Circuit Court, Clay County, Missouri (the &#34;Court&#34;). On March 9, 2021 the Company filed suit against Jeremiah Gross for a deficiency balance owed to the Company following the 2018 surrender and sale of his motor vehicle which secured a loan from the Company. On April 22, 2021 a default judgment for $7,984.18 was entered against Mr. Gross. On December 22, 2021 Mr. Gross filed a motion to set aside the default judgment. The Court granted his motion on March 23, 2022. In his answer he asserted a class-action counterclaim against the Company seeking to represent a nationwide class of the Company&#x2019;s customers who received allegedly deficient notices regarding the sale of their vehicles and whose vehicles were recovered and sold by the Company, and on behalf of Missouri customers who received allegedly deficient notices from the Company regarding the sale of their recovered vehicles and the calculation of the deficiency owed the Company. The Company filed its answer to the counterclaim on May 13, 2022.

The motion was argued on February 16, 2023. On March 27, 2023 the Court entered an order granting the motion in part and denying the motion in part. The Court found in favor of the Company as to the counterclaim regarding presale notices and prejudgment interest, and in Mr. Gross&#x2019;s favor for the counterclaim as to post-sale notices. The Court denied the Company&#x2019;s motion for summary judgment as to its claim for a deficiency against Mr. Gross. The remaining claim relates to post-sale notices sent to Missouri customers. The Company&#x2019;s insurer accepted the defense of this litigation under a reservation of rights. On November 13, 2023 the Company and the Company&#x2019;s insurer reached agreement with Mr. Gross on the terms and conditions of a settlement for the last remaining class action claim relating to post-sale notices sent to Missouri customers. Among other things, the settlement is expected to provide that the Company&#x2019;s insurer will deposit the remaining available limits under the Company&#x2019;s insurance policy, which shall in no event be less than $750,000, into a qualified settlement fund in order to satisfy all remaining claims in exchange for a full release of the Company and its affiliates and the Company&#x2019;s insurer from any and all past, present and future liability arising out of or relating to consumer credit contracts under which the Company or its affiliates obtained a security interest in property. The terms and conditions of the final settlement agreement will be subject to approval by the Court, and the parties in the litigation intend to seek such approval promptly following memorialization of the terms and conditions of the settlement into a final agreement. There can be no assurance that the Court will approve the terms and conditions of the final settlement agreement.</font></p>

There are no Canadian foreign exchange controls or laws that would affect the remittance of dividends or other payments to the Corporation&#x2019;s non-Canadian resident shareholders. There are no Canadian laws that restrict the export or import of capital, other than the Investment Canada Act (Canada), which requires the notification or review of certain investments by non-Canadians to establish or acquire control of a Canadian business. The Corporation is not a Canadian business as defined under the Investment Canada Act because it has no place of business in Canada, has no individuals employed in Canada in connection with its business, and has no assets in Canada used in carrying on its business.</font></p>

The Tax Treaty contains provisions governing the tax treatment of interest, dividends, gains, and royalties paid to or received by a person residing in the United States. The Tax Treaty also contains provisions to prevent the occurrence of double taxation, essentially by permitting the taxpayer to claim a tax credit for taxes paid in the foreign jurisdiction.</font></p>

If a dividend was paid to the Corporation from the current or accumulated earnings and profits of the U.S. subsidiary, the dividend would be subject to a U.S. withholding tax of 5%. The gross dividend (i.e., before payment of the withholding tax) would generally be included in the Corporation's Canadian taxable income. However, under certain circumstances, the Corporation may be allowed to deduct the dividends in the calculation of its Canadian taxable income. If the Corporation has no other foreign (i.e., non-Canadian) non-business income, no relief is available in that case to recover the withholding taxes previously paid.</font></p>

The U.S. shareholder must include the gross amount of the dividends in the shareholder&#x2019;s net income to be taxed at the regular rates. In general, a U.S. shareholder can obtain a foreign tax credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to the Canadian withholding tax on such dividends, but the amount of such credit is subject to a limitation that depends, in part, on the amount of the shareholder&#x2019;s income and losses from other sources. A U.S. shareholder that is an individual also can elect to claim a deduction (rather than a foreign tax credit) for all non-U.S. income taxes paid by the shareholder during the particular year. The benefit of any deduction for foreign taxes may be negatively impacted by the overall limitation on deducting income and other taxes. U.S. shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of any Canadian withholding tax imposed on dividends from the Corporation.</font></p>

Based on a review of information available to us, we believe that Nicholas Financial, Inc. has a deficit in &#x201c;earnings and profits.&#x201d; As a result, no U.S. shareholder should have a positive &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to such shareholder&#x2019;s common shares, and therefore no U.S. shareholder should be required to include any such amount in income as a result of the domestication.</font></p>

However, if the IRS does not agree with our beliefs a shareholder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences on the domestication. Any U.S. shareholder who owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our common stock at the time of the domestication will have to recognize income, categorized as dividend income for U.S. federal income tax purposes, equal to the &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount,&#x201d; within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(b) -2, allocable to such U.S. shareholder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation. Any U.S. shareholder who owns less than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our common shares and whose shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more on the date of the domestication will, assuming the deemed dividend election is made by such U.S. shareholder, have income in an amount equal to the lesser of the gain, if any, on the domestication or &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to his shares in Nicholas Financial, Inc. U.S. shareholders who own less than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our shares and whose shares have a fair market value below $50,000 are not subject to tax on the domestication.

There are material differences between the BCBCA and the DGCL and our current articles of incorporation and the proposed certificate of incorporation and bylaws. For example, under Canadian law, many significant corporate actions such as amending a corporation&#x2019;s articles of incorporation or consummating a merger require the approval of three-quarters of the votes cast by Nicholas Financial, Inc.&#x2019;s shareholders, whereas under Delaware law, a majority of the total voting power of all of those entitled to vote may approve the matter. Furthermore, shareholders under Canadian law are entitled to dissent and appraisal rights under a number of extraordinary corporate actions, including an amalgamation with another unrelated corporation, certain amendments to a corporation&#x2019;s articles of incorporation or the sale of all or substantially all of a corporation&#x2019;s undertaking; under Delaware law, stockholders are entitled to dissent and appraisal rights for certain specified corporate transactions such as mergers or consolidations. If the domestication is approved, shareholders may be afforded less protection under the DGCL than they had under the BCBCA in certain circumstances.

We will incur attorneys&#x2019; fees, accountants&#x2019; fees, filing fees, mailing expenses and financial printing expenses in connection with the domestication. The domestication will also temporarily divert the attention of our management and employees from the day-to-day management of the business to a limited extent.</font></p>

We do not expect that we will be subject to any Canadian taxation on this deemed disposition. However, we will be subject to an additional corporate emigration tax equal to 5% of the amount by which the fair market value of our property, net of liabilities, exceeds the paid-up capital of our issued and outstanding shares. We have completed certain calculations of our tax accounts with the assistance of professional advisors, and assuming the fair market value of our property reflects the market price of our stock, a stock price of $7.00 per common share and that the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar is CDN $1.00 equals US $0.75, the domestication is expected to result in the Corporation being liable to Canadian tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act (as defined below) of approximately $1,446,000, but we do not expect to incur any Canadian Part I income tax. We may be subject to additional corporate emigration tax if the price of our common shares increases or if the exchange rate were to change significantly or if key assumptions regarding these calculations prove inaccurate. If the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale or other factors cause the market price of our common shares to increase above the assumed market price of $7.00 per share, we could incur more Canadian tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act and perhaps also income tax under Part I of the Tax Act. If the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale or other factors cause the market price of our common shares to decrease below the assumed market price of $7.00 per share, we could incur less Canadian income tax.</font></p>

As is customary, when a Canadian federal tax liability depends largely on factual matters, we have not applied to the Canadian federal tax authorities for a ruling on this matter and do not intend to do so.</font></p>

However, this determination may change depending on the use to which the Corporation puts the proceeds of the Loan Portfolio Sale.</font></p>

If the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal is not approved by Shareholders, we believe that our automobile finance installment contracts will rapidly suffer large credit losses which could result in a significant devaluation of the Corporation and the market value of its stock and add uncertainty to our ability to successfully implement our restructuring plan.

The Board determined that none of these potential strategic alternatives or transactions, other than the Loan Portfolio Sale, were viable. Currently, the Board has no plans to liquidate the Corporation&#x2019;s assets and distribute funds from liquidation to the shareholders. If in the future the Board determines that liquidation of the Corporation&#x2019;s assets and distribution of funds from liquidation to the shareholders is in the best interests of the shareholders, the liquidation proceeds received by shareholders at that time could be of less value to the shareholders than the value they may receive if the Loan Portfolio Sale is consummated and could be less than if the Corporation&#x2019;s assets were liquidated and funds distributed to shareholders instead of consummating the Loan Portfolio Sale.</font></div></div>

We intend to use net proceeds from the sale to either acquire or invest in businesses outside of the Corporation&#x2019;s traditional business. The board of directors intend to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. Even if the Loan Portfolio Sale closes, the restructuring plan may not be implemented at all or, if implemented, may not be successful in achieving its intended goals. We may not be successful in identifying other businesses to acquire or invest and, if we do, we may not be able to make such acquisitions or investments on terms favorable to us, if at all. There can be no assurance that if such acquisitions or investments are made that the value to shareholders over time will exceed the amount, if any, they would receive in a liquidation.

As of September 30, 2023, we maintained a deferred income tax valuation allowance of $11.3 million, the remaining state gross NOL was $53.5 million, and the remaining U.S. gross NOL amounted to $31.3 million. The U.S. NOL generated beginning in 2022 and later will carry forward indefinitely, while some state NOLs begin to expire March 31, 2039. Realization of these NOL depends on future income and if we do not generate future income our existing carryforwards would be unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations,  Additionally, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, if a corporation undergoes an &#x201c;ownership change,&#x201d; generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a rolling three-year period, the corporation&#x2019;s ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income may be limited. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. We do not believe that we will experience an ownership change as a result of the domestication or the Loan Portfolio Sale. However, we may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of future transactions in, or issuances of,  our stock, some of which may be outside our control. If a &#x201c;change in ownership&#x201d; occurs and if we earn net taxable income, our ability to use our pre-change NOL carryforwards, or other pre-change tax attributes, to offset U.S. and state taxable income may be subject to significant limitations or may not be available at all. Limitations on the use of our pre-change NOL carryforwards or other pre-change tax attributes or our inability to use them could adversely affect our restructuring plan by delaying or preventing its implementation.</font></div></div>

A shell company is a company that has : (i) no or nominal operations and (ii) either no or nominal assets, assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. Your common shares may only be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, if available, such as Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or another exemption. Currently, there is no effective registration statement for you to resell your common shares. Rule 144 provides a potential registration exemption for resales of your common shares if all of the requirements of the rule are met. The registration exemption provided by Rule 144 is not available for resales of securities issued by a company that has been at any time a shell company, with an exception. Under this exemption, Rule 144 may be available for a company that is at any time a shell company if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company; (ii) the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (iii) the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding twelve months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and (iv) at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company. At the present time, the Company is not classified as a &#x201c;shell company&#x201d; under Rule 405 of the Securities Act or Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. To the extent the Company is designated a shell company you would be unable to resell your common shares under Rule 144, unless the conditions of the exemption in Rule 144 are satisfied.</font></div></div>

The board of directors has approved our domestication and the related certificate of incorporation of Nicholas Financial, Inc., believes it to be in our best interests, and recommends approval of the domestication and the approval of the certificate of incorporation of Nicholas Financial, Inc. to our shareholders.</font></p>

Thereafter, we will be subject to the certificate of incorporation filed in Delaware, a copy of which is attached to this Circular as Exhibit C. We will be discontinued in Canada as of the date of domestication in Delaware.</font></p>

Each outstanding common share at the time of the domestication will remain issued and outstanding as a share of common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc. after our corporate existence is continued from British Columbia, Canada under the BCBCA and domesticated in Delaware under the DGCL. Following the completion of the domestication, the common shares will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbol &#x201c;NICK.&#x201d; See &#x201c;RISK FACTORS-Risks Relating to the Loan Portfolio Sale.&#x201d;</font></p>

In addition, we will continue to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. Upon our domestication, our board of directors intends to adopt bylaws, copies of which are attached to this Circular as Exhibit D. A copy of Sections 237 - 247of the BCBCA addressing dissenters&#x2019; rights in connection with the continuation is attached to this Circular as Exhibit E.</font></p>

  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">We are pursuing the domestication for a number of reasons, the foremost being that we have no significant presence in Canada. Our corporate offices and operations are located in the United States, most of our shareholders reside there, and the principal market for our common shares is the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Despite these strong connections with the United States, we believe we are not uniformly perceived by investors, lenders or potential strategic partners as a U.S. company. Our board of directors believes that the absence of a clear U.S. identity may prevent us from maximizing the opportunities and relationships with investors, lenders and potential partners, many of whom prefer to engage in business with a U.S. entity.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">Our board of directors chose the State of Delaware to be our domicile because the DGCL expressly accommodates continuations under Section 308 of the BCBCA and because the provisions of the DGCL, specifically those dealing with the duties and obligations of directors of a Delaware corporation, have been interpreted by a substantial body of case law in the Delaware courts. We believe the domestication will unambiguously establish us as a U.S. corporation and help us achieve our strategic goals.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">In considering its recommendation in favor of the domestication, our board of directors weighed the estimated tax liability to us arising from this transaction. See &#x201c;The Domestication &#x2013; United States and Canadian Income Tax Considerations.&#x201d; With the assistance of professional advisors, we have reviewed our assets, liabilities, paid-up capital and other tax balances. Based on our calculations and based on a number of key assumptions, if the market price of our common shares does not exceed $7.00 per share and that the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar remains relatively constant at CDN $1.00 equals US $0.75, then the domestication is expected to result in the Corporation being liable to Canadian tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act of approximately $1,446,000, but we do not expect to incur any Canadian Part I income tax. If the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale or other factors cause the market price of our common shares to increase above the assumed market price of $7.00 per share, we could incur more Canadian tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act and perhaps also income tax under Part I of the Tax Act. If the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale or other factors cause the market price of our common shares to decrease below the assumed market price of $7.00 per share, we could incur less Canadian income tax.</font></p>

Furthermore, many matters requiring shareholder approval under British Columbia law must be approved by a special resolution of not less than three-quarters of the votes cast by Nicholas Financial, Inc.&#x2019;s shareholders who voted on those matters. In some cases, such as an amendment to the articles that affects classes of shares differently, a special resolution to approve an extraordinary corporate action is also required to be approved separately by the holders of a class or series of shares, whether or not shares of such class or series otherwise carry the right to vote.</font></p></td>

These obligations fall into two broad categories: duty of care and a duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires a director to act in good faith, with the care an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances, and in a manner he or she believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. It is qualified by the business judgment rule, which protects a disinterested director from personal liability to the corporation and its shareholders if the director acted in good faith, was reasonably informed and rationally believed the action taken was in the best interests of the corporation. The duty of loyalty requires directors to exercise their powers in the interests of the corporation and not in the directors own interest or in the interest of another person (including a family member) or organization. Stated more simply, the duty of loyalty precludes directors from using their corporate position to make a personal profit or gain, or for other personal advantage.</font></p></td>

Instead, absent making an election discussed below to include the &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to such U.S. Holder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation in income, which we refer to as a Deemed Dividend Election, such U.S. Holder must recognize gain, but will not recognize any loss, on his or her shares if such shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more on the date of the exchange and the fair market value of Nicholas Financial, Inc. stock received in the exchange exceeds the U.S. Holder&#x2019;s tax basis of the shares of the Corporation surrendered in the exchange. However, such U.S. Holder can make the Deemed Dividend Election to include in income as a dividend the &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to the shares owned by such U.S. Holder in the Corporation If a U.S. Holder makes such an election, then such holder does not recognize any gain on the exchange.</font></p>

Code &#167;964 and &#167;986, and the regulations thereunder, contain the rules for adjusting earnings and profits under foreign GAAP to U.S. GAAP and U.S. tax accounting, as well as rules for determining the currency in which earnings must be computed for U.S. tax purposes.</font></p>

However, no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with us. If it does not, a U.S. Holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal tax consequences.  Further, Kutak Rock expresses no opinion as to whether any U.S. Holder would or would not have a positive &#x201c;all earnings and profits amount&#x201d; attributable to such holder&#x2019;s shares in the Corporation.</font></p>

In addition to the discussion under the heading &#x201c;Effects of Code Section 367&#x201d; above, the domestication might be a taxable event to U.S. Holders if the Corporation is or ever was a passive foreign investment company, or a PFIC, under Section 1297 of the Code, provided that Section 1291(f) of the Code is currently effective.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">Generally, a foreign corporation is a PFIC if 75% or more of its gross income for a taxable year is passive income or if, on average for such taxable year, 50% or more of the value of its assets held by the corporation during a taxable year produce or are held to produce passive income. Passive income includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties, but excludes rents and royalties that are derived in the active conduct of a trade or business and that are received from an unrelated person, as well as interest, dividends, rents and royalties received from a related person that are allocable to income of such related person other than passive income. For purposes of these rules, the Corporation would be considered to own the assets of and recognize the income of any subsidiary corporations as to which it owns 25% or more of the value of their outstanding stock, in proportion to such ownership. If a foreign corporation is classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns stock in the foreign corporation, the foreign corporation generally remains thereafter classified as a PFIC with respect to that stockholder. The Corporation believes that it is not and has never been a PFIC. Accordingly, the domestication should not be a taxable event for any U.S. Holder based on an application of the PFIC rules. However, the determination of whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is primarily factual and there is little administrative or judicial authority on which to rely to make a determination. Hence, the IRS might not agree that the Corporation is not a PFIC. Further, Kutak Rock LLP expresses no opinion as to whether the Corporation is or is not a PFIC.</font></p>

No final Treasury regulations have been promulgated under this statute. Proposed Treasury regulations were promulgated in 1992 with a retroactive effective date. If finalized in their current form, these regulations would generally require gain recognition by United States persons exchanging common shares of the Corporation for common stock of Nicholas Financial, Inc., if the Corporation were classified as a PFIC at any time during such United States person&#x2019;s holding period in such stock and such person had not made either a &#x201c;qualified electing fund&#x201d; election under Code Section 1295, for the first taxable year in which such U.S. Holder owned shares of the Corporation or in which the Corporation was a PFIC, whichever is later; or a &#x201c;mark-to-market&#x201d; election under Code Section 1296. The tax on any such gain so recognized would be imposed at the rate applicable to ordinary income and an interest charge would apply based on a complex set of computational rules designed to offset the tax deferral to such stockholders on our undistributed earnings. However, we are unable to predict at this time whether, in what form, and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Code Section 1291(f) will be adopted.</font></p>

Nicholas Financial, Inc. does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its stock. Were it do so, however, dividends paid to Non-U.S. Holders would generally be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at the rate of 30%, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided Nicholas Financial, Inc. has received proper certification (generally on IRS Form W-8BEN) of the application of such income tax treaty. A Non-U.S. Holder that is eligible for a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax under an income tax treaty may obtain a refund or credit of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for a refund with the IRS. Pursuant to the income tax treaty between the United States and Canada (the &#x201c;Treaty&#x201d;), dividends paid by a United States corporation to a Canadian resident where each qualifies for benefits under the Treaty are subject to United States federal withholding tax at a maximum rate of 15%. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their eligibility for claiming benefits under the Treaty and regarding their particular circumstances to claim a tax credit or tax deduction against their Canadian (or other) tax liability for any United States federal withholding tax.</font></p>

In that case, we will not have to withhold United States federal withholding tax if the Non-U.S. Holder complies with applicable certification and disclosure requirements (generally on IRS Form W-8ECI). In addition, dividends received by a foreign corporation that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States may be subject to a branch profits tax at a 30% rate, or a lower rate specified in an applicable income tax treaty.</font></p>

The summary applies to the Corporation and to holders of shares who, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or Tax Act, hold shares as capital property, who deal at arm&#x2019;s length, and are not affiliated, with the Corporation and in the case of a shareholder who is or is deemed to be resident in Canada for purposes of the Tax Act, for whom the Canadian dollar is the functional currency for the purposes of the Tax Act. This summary does not apply to shareholders that are &#x201c;financial institutions&#x201d; as defined for the purposes of the &#x201c;mark-to-market&#x201d; rules in the Tax Act or in respect of whom the Corporation will, at any time after the domestication, be a &#x201c;foreign affiliate&#x201d; for purposes of the Tax Act.  Such shareholders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of the domestication, which tax consequences may vary depending upon their particular circumstances.</font></p>

Upon the domestication, the Corporation will cease to be a Canadian resident corporation and a &#x201c;public corporation&#x201d; for the purposes of the Tax Act. The taxation year of the Corporation that would otherwise have included the time of the domestication will be deemed to end immediately before that time and a new taxation year will be deemed to have begun at that time. In addition, each property owned by the Corporation immediately before the deemed year end will be deemed to have been disposed of for proceeds of disposition equal to the fair market value of the property at that time. The Corporation will be subject to income tax under Part I of the Tax Act on any income and net taxable capital gains arising as a result of the deemed dispositions of its properties. The Corporation will be deemed to have reacquired each such property at the time of its domestication at a cost equal to its deemed proceeds of disposition.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">The Corporation will also be subject to an additional tax under Part XIV of the Tax Act on the amount by which the fair market value, immediately before its deemed year end resulting from the domestication, of all of the property owned by the Corporation exceeds the total of its liabilities and the paid-up capital of all the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation immediately before the deemed year end. This additional tax is generally payable at the rate of 25 percent, but will be reduced to 5 percent under the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (the &#x201c;Treaty&#x201d;) unless it can reasonably be concluded that one of the main reasons for the Corporation becoming resident in the United States was to reduce the amount of such additional tax or Canadian withholding tax.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">The Canadian tax consequences to the Corporation associated with the proposed domestication will be dependent principally upon the valuation of the property of the Corporation, and upon certain Canadian tax amounts, accounts and balances of the Corporation, each as of the time of the domestication. Canadian Counsel is not qualified to opine on such valuations and has relied upon a certificate of management of the Corporation with respect to both such valuations and the Canadian tax amounts, accounts and balances of the Corporation. In particular, management of the Corporation has advised that, in its view and as of the date hereof, the current fair market value of the properties of the Corporation does not materially exceed the tax costs of such properties and the estimated available tax-free surplus balances of its foreign affiliates in respect of a tax election pursuant to subsection 93(1) of the Tax Act (the &#x201c;Canadian Income Tax Differential&#x201d;). Management has further advised  that, in its view and as of the date hereof, the current fair market value of the properties of the Corporation materially exceeds the aggregate of the paid-up capital of the shares and the liabilities of the Corporation (the &#x201c;Canadian Part XIV Tax Differential&#x201d;). Provided that the Canadian Part XIV Tax Differential is as described in this paragraph, the estimated Part XIV tax of approximately $1,446,000 is expected to apply as a result of the domestication. This estimate is based in part on determinations of factual matters and a number of key assumptions any or all of which could change prior to the effective time of the domestication or prove to be inaccurate, in which case the actual Part XIV tax could be materially greater than the estimated amount.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">Shareholders are cautioned that the Canadian Income Tax Differential described above is not supported by independent valuations, audits, or tax opinions. Furthermore, the CRA may not agree with the Corporation&#x2019;s determination of fair market value at the relevant time. It is also possible that the fair market value of the Corporation&#x2019;s property may change between the date hereof and the time of the domestication. Should unforeseen events lead to a potential for greater tax liability than currently expected, the board of directors has the right to not proceed with the domestication.</font></p>

As described below, such dividends may be subject to U.S. withholding tax. A Resident Shareholder will be entitled to include any U.S. taxes that are required to be withheld on the dividend in computing any deduction or a foreign tax credit under the Tax Act in relation thereto, subject to the detailed rules of the Tax Act. A Resident Shareholder who is an individual will not be entitled to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to taxable dividends on shares of taxable Canadian corporations. Similarly, a Resident Shareholder that is a corporation will not be entitled to a deduction in respect of any dividends received as it would for dividends received on shares of a taxable Canadian corporation. A Resident Shareholder that is a &#x201c;Canadian-controlled private corporation&#x201d; (as defined in the Tax Act) will be subject to the rules that can impose an additional refundable tax of 10 2/3% on such dividends.</font></p>

One-half of any capital gain (a &#x201c;taxable capital gain&#x201d;) realized by a Resident Shareholder on a Share will be included in the Resident Shareholder&#x2019;s income for the year of disposition. One-half of any capital loss (an &#x201c;allowable capital loss&#x201d;) realized is required to be deducted by the Resident Shareholder against taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition. Any excess of allowable capital losses over taxable capital gains of the Resident Shareholder for the year of disposition may be carried back up to three taxation years or forward indefinitely and deducted against net taxable capital gains in those other years to the extent and in the circumstances prescribed in the Tax Act.</font></p>

However, Canadian Counsel has been advised that the Corporation intends that the shares continue to be listed on the NASDAQ.

See &#x201c;Background&#x201d; and &#x201c;Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal&#x201d; below. As part of our change in operating strategy and evolving restructuring in an effort to mitigate against these potential adverse effects and to maximize shareholder value, our Board seeks to effect the sale of all or substantially all of the undertaking of the Corporation and its affiliates. In furtherance of these efforts, the Board is presenting the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal for approval by the Corporation&#x2019;s shareholders. See &#x201c;Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal&#x201d; below.</font></p>

The board believes that if shareholders do not approve the Loan Portfolio Sale that: (i) the value of our contracts and the receivables will decrease over time; and (ii) the purchase price offered by another potential buyer, if any, will be lower than the purchase price offered in the Loan Portfolio Sale.  If the loan portfolio is not sold we expect the costs to run off the business will be significant.

As also previously disclosed: during fiscal 2023 the Company did not complete any bulk portfolio purchases; all of our direct loan licenses have been cancelled, not renewed, or otherwise terminated; all of ours brick and mortar branch locations in 18 states were closed, with the headquarters in Florida and central operations office remaining; we expect our total direct loans portfolio to be reduced over time as such direct loans are paid off or otherwise liquidated until there are no direct loans in our portfolio. The Corporation also disclosed in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 that in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Corporation does not intend to continue any significant contract purchases and origination activities, except on a much smaller scale, than it has historically. The Board continued to evaluate the restructuring plan and strategic alternatives to continuation of the existing business, including investments outside of our traditional business. See &#x201c;Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal&#x201d; below.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">In July 2023, Westlake contacted Jeremy Zhu, a director of the Corporation, to inquire if there was any potential interest in preliminary discussions regarding the sale of the loan portfolio to Westlake. Mr. Zhu later participated in the negotiations of the sale of the loan portfolio to Westlake as set forth  below. The inquiry was immediately brought to the attention of the Board; however, the Board decided to focus on the existing business and act to minimize losses, rather than pursue sale of the loan portfolio at that time. See &#x201c;INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT IN THE DOMESTICATION AND LOAN PORTFOLIO SALE&#x201d; regarding Mr. Zhu&#x2019;s lack of current or prior relationship with Westlake.</font></p>

Prior to the meeting, Westlake and a Director held further preliminary discussions regarding any potential interest in a sale of the loan portfolio to Westlake. Based on information then available, the tax implications associated with selling the loan portfolio prior to the proposed domestication weighed in favor of pursuing the proposed domestication and not pursuing a potential sale of the loan portfolio to Westlake or any other potential buyer at that time.</font></p>

These developments and the expectation that they would likely continue and increase were of such significance to cause the Corporation, along with its legal counsel, to engage in further discussions with Westlake and its legal counsel regarding a proposed sale of the loan portfolio. See &#x201c;Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal&#x201d; below.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">On September 14, 2023 legal counsel for the Corporation received the first draft of the Asset Purchase Agreement from Westlake and its legal counsel. Members of the Board were informed of the receipt of the draft and the general terms and conditions of the draft. The Board authorized a Director along with the Corporation&#x2019;s legal counsel to initiate discussions regarding the draft with Westlake and its legal counsel.</font></p>
  <p style="text-indent:6.667%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">At a Board meeting on October 5, 2023 in response to a request from the Board to assess the recent adverse developments in the loan portfolio, the Corporation&#x2019;s Chief Financial Officer presented several financial models reflecting the potential effects of continuing credit losses on the current business, operations and financial condition and likely future business prospects for the Corporation over the next four years. The models were based on the assumptions that: credit losses continue at certain assumed rates, one that was believed to be the most likely, another at a rate slightly less than that assumed most likely and another at a rate much less than that assumed most likely; our loan portfolio is run off, new loan originations are less than $1 million annually; no loan portfolio acquisitions are made; Westlake continues to service our loan portfolio, we continue to employ approximately the same number of employees or fewer and the Financial Accounting Standards Board&#x2019;s current expected credit losses methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses is applied. The models indicated that, based on the assumptions used, that the book value per share of the Corporation&#x2019;s common stock is likely to decrease or remain relatively stagnant over the next four years and the Corporation&#x2019;s net income and cash flow are likely to be adversely impacted. The various models included the estimated effect of selling the loan portfolio at different times and indicated that the potential sales price of the receivables would decrease over time. See &#x201c;Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal&#x201d; below. The expected deterioration of the Corporation&#x2019;s financial condition, future business prospects were of such a magnitude that the Board believed that the benefits to the Corporation and its shareholders by consummating the Loan Portfolio Sale prior to the domestication outweighed the tax implications associated with selling the loan portfolio prior to the proposed domestication. After full consideration and discussion of the financial models and the Corporation&#x2019;s likely business and financial prospects, potential options to pursue and other factors relevant to determining whether to continue the Corporation&#x2019;s business or pursue other options, the Board determined to fully pursue the proposed sale to Westlake if mutually agreeable terms and conditions could be reached.</font></p>

See &#x201c;THE LOAN PORTFOLIO SALE-&#x201c;Background&#x201d; and &#x201c;-Reasons for the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal.&#x201d; We also believe that if shareholders do not approve the Loan Portfolio Sale that: : (i) the value of our contracts and the receivables will decrease over time; and (ii) the purchase price offered by another potential buyer, if any, will be lower than the purchase price offered in the Loan Portfolio Sale. If the loan portfolio is not sold we expect the costs to run off the business will be significant. As part of our change in operating strategy and evolving restructuring in an effort to mitigate against these potential adverse effects and to maximize shareholder value, our Board seeks to effect the sale of all or substantially all of the undertaking of the Corporation and its affiliates. In furtherance of these efforts, the Board is presenting the Loan Portfolio Sale proposal for approval by the Corporation&#x2019;s shareholders</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">. The aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $65.5 million under the Asset Purchase Agreement equates to a book value per share of approximately $9.00 per share, subject to adjustment (both increases and deductions) in accordance with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, as of November 13, 2023, compared to the closing price of the Corporation&#x2019;s common stock on November 13, 2023 of $4.5285 per share. As reported in the Corporation&#x2019;s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023, the book value of the Corporation&#x2019;s receivables, net of unearned discounts and fees and accrued interest receivable and the allowance for  credit losses was $72,152,361. The Corporation divided that net book value by 7,290,557 shares of its common stock outstanding to calculate that the implied net book value of the receivables per share of common stock was approximately $9.90 per share. As also reported in the Corporation&#x2019;s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p>

As part of our restructuring plan, we intend to use net proceeds from the Loan Portfolio Sale to either acquire or invest in businesses outside of the Corporation&#x2019;s traditional business and seek to maximize the value of deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, available to the Corporation. The board of directors intends to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. The board currently believes that the long-term interests of shareholders would be best served by the Corporation using the net proceeds from the Loan Portfolio Sale to acquire and invest in other businesses instead of liquidating and distributing the net sales proceeds to shareholders because it believes that such acquisitions and investments will, over time, increase shareholder value to a greater extent than what they would receive in liquidation. The liquidation value of the Corporation was not determined in connection with the Loan Portfolio Sale because we believe that there are inherent uncertainties in establishing that value based on the nature of most of our assets and their deterioration in value. There can be no assurance that any of these acquisitions or investments in other businesses, if made, will result in greater stockholder value than the liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation. See &#x201c;RISK FACTORS- Risks Relating to the Loan Portfolio Sale.&#x201d; In developing the restructuring plan and considering the Loan Portfolio Sale, the Board considered at length potential strategic alternatives available to us, including identifying available strategic alternatives and transactions involving the Corporation as a whole, such as a merger, reverse merger, sale of assets, strategic partnership or other business combination transaction, that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to our shareholders over time in excess of the amount, if any, the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. See &#x201c;THE LOAN PORTFOLIO SALE- Our Business and Operations Following Approval of the Loan Portfolio Sale Proposal.&#x201d; The Board determined that none of these potential strategic alternatives, other than the Loan Portfolio Sale, were viable. Currently, the Board has no plans to liquidate the Corporation&#x2019;s assets and distribute funds from liquidation to the shareholders.</font></p>

We plan to complete the domestication, if approved by shareholders, after the closing of the Loan Portfolio Sale, if it occurs; however, we intend to proceed with the domestication, if the requisite shareholder approval is obtained, if the Loan Portfolio Sale does not close. The registrant intends to proceed with the Loan Portfolio Sale, if the requisite shareholder approval is obtained, if the domestication is not completed.

If credit losses continue at a rate that we believe is the most likely, our loan portfolio is run off, new loan originations are less than $1 million annually, no loan portfolio acquisitions are made, Westlake continues to service our loan portfolio and we continue to employ approximately the same number of employees or fewer, then we believe that the book value per share of our common stock is likely to decrease, we are likely to suffer net losses and our cash flow could be negative over the course of the next four years. If credit losses are less than what we believe are most likely over the next four years, the book value per share of common stock could remain relatively stagnant or decrease to a lesser extent, we could experience both net income and net losses and we could have both positive and negative net cash flow in different years over the next four years. We also believe that if shareholders do not approve the Loan Portfolio Sale that the costs to run off the business will be significant.

We intend to use net proceeds from the sale to either acquire or invest in businesses outside of the Corporation&#x2019;s traditional business. The board of directors intend to explore acquisitions of businesses in industries with respect to which they have familiarity based on their other business and investment activities; however, the board does not intend to limit its acquisition and investment activities to those businesses and industries. The overall timeframe for potential acquisitions and investments remains uncertain. In exploring and considering potential acquisitions and investments, the Board intends to pursue opportunities that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to our shareholders over time in excess of the amount, if any, the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. The Board currently believes that the long-term interests of shareholders would be best served by the Corporation pursuing the Loan Portfolio Sale, the restructuring plan and other strategic initiatives that the Board may subsequently determine are in the best interests of shareholders. There can be no assurance that any of these alternatives will result in greater stockholder value than the liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation.

The amount of gain or loss we recognize with respect to the sale of the Loan Portfolio will be measured by the difference between the amount realized by us in connection with the Loan Portfolio Sale and our adjusted tax basis the Loan Portfolio. Based on the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and our best estimates at this time of our adjusted tax basis in the Loan Portfolio, we expect the total adjusted tax basis of all our Loan Portfolio assets to exceed the total amount realized; therefore, we expect to recognize a net income tax loss on the Loan Portfolio Sale.  We currently estimate such net income tax loss on the Loan Portfolio Sale to be between $25 million to $30 million, subject to certain true&#x2011;up provisions as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.</font></p>

The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting a claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding in advance of its final disposition when the required affirmation and undertaking have been tendered to the corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because the claimant has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.</font></p>
