    <p style="text-align: justify;">Information relating to the matters to be brought before the Meeting is set forth in the management information circular dated February 13, 2023 (the "<b>Circular</b>").</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Notice and Access</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Company has elected to use "notice-and-access" rules ("<b>Notice-and-Access</b>") under NI 54-101 for distribution of Proxy-Related Materials (as defined below) to Shareholders who do not hold shares of the Company in their own names (referred to herein as "<b>Beneficial Shareholders</b>"). Notice-and-Access is a set of rules that allows issuers to post electronic versions of Proxy-Related Materials on SEDAR and on one additional website, rather than mailing paper copies. "<b>Proxy-Related Materials</b>" refers to this Circular, the Notice of Meeting, a voting instruction form ("<b>VIF</b>") and the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended on September 30, 2022, and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis for the same period. The use of Notice-and-Access is more environmentally friendly as it helps reduce paper use. It also reduces the Company's printing and mailing costs. Shareholders are reminded to view the Proxy-Related Materials prior to voting. Proxy-Related Materials can be viewed online under the Company's website (Investors tab) and its profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com or on the website of TSX Trust Company (the "<b>Transfer Agent</b>"), the Company's transfer agent and registrar, at <font style="color: #0563c1;"><u>http://docs.tsxtrust.com/2214</u></font>. The Proxy-Related Materials will remain posted on the Transfer Agent's website at least until the date that is one year after the date the Meeting Materials were posted. The Company will not be adopting stratification procedures in relation to the use of Notice-And-Access. All Shareholders are reminded to review the Proxy-Related Materials before voting.</p>

Requests may be made up to one year from the date the Proxy-Related Materials are posted on the Transfer Agent's website.<b> In order to receive a paper copy of the Proxy-Related Materials</b> <b>or if you have questions concerning Notice-And-Access, please call or email TSX Trust Company, toll free at 1-866-600-5869 or</b> <font style="color: #0563c1;"><u>tsxtis@tmx.com</u></font><b>.

Shareholders are reminded to view the Proxy-Related Materials prior to voting. Proxy-Related Materials can be viewed online under the Company's website (Investors tab) and its profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com or on the website of TSX Trust Company (the "<b>Transfer Agent</b>"), the Company's transfer agent and registrar, at <font style="color: #0000ff;"><u>http://docs.tsxtrust.com/2214</u></font>.

The Company will not be adopting stratification procedures in relation to the use of Notice-And-Access. All Shareholders are reminded to review the Proxy-Related Materials before voting.</p>

The steps set forth above must be completed prior to the proxy deadline, failing which the appointee will not be able to vote at the Meeting. On the day of the Meeting, appointees will be able to vote during the live webcast by completing a ballot online during the Meeting and by logging in to the Meeting platform using the link provided 24 hours before the start of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">A Registered Shareholder attending the Meeting virtually has the right to vote virtually and, if he, she or it does so, his, her or its <b>form of proxy is nullified</b> with respect to the matters such person votes upon at the Meeting and any subsequent matters thereafter to be voted upon at the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>1.5</b><font style="width: 22.25pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>Revocation of proxies</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">A Registered Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by their representative authorized in writing. If the Shareholder is a company, the revocation must be signed by a representative of the Company or their representative authorized in writing. The revocation of a proxy must be deposited at the registered office of the Company or with the Transfer Agent at the address set out in the enclosed form of proxy and notice of meeting, no later than at the close of business on the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, or with the chairman at the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Also, note that if you are a Registered Shareholder and use your control number to log in to the Meeting, any vote you cast at the Meeting will revoke any proxy you previously submitted. If you do not wish to revoke a previously submitted proxy or voting instruction form, as the case may be, you should not vote during the Meeting</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>1.6</b><font style="width: 22pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>Notice to Beneficial Shareholders</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The information set out in this section is of importance to many Shareholders, as a substantial number of Shareholders are Beneficial Shareholders and do not hold Common Shares of the Company in their own names. Beneficial Shareholders should note that only proxies deposited by Registered Shareholders (Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares) can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof. If shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those shares will not be registered in the Shareholder's name on the records of the Company. Those shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS &amp; Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as a nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). Shares held by brokers or their nominees can be voted (for or against resolutions or withheld from voting) only upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, the broker/nominees are prohibited from voting shares for their clients. Subject to the following discussion in relation to NOBOs (as defined below), the Company does not know for whose benefit the shares of the Company registered in the name of CDS &amp; Co., a broker or another nominee are held.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">There are two categories of Beneficial Shareholders for the purposes of applicable securities regulatory policy in relation to the mechanism of dissemination to Beneficial Shareholders of proxy-related materials and other security holder materials and the request for voting instructions from such Beneficial Shareholders. Non-objecting beneficial owners ("<b>NOBOs</b>") are Beneficial Shareholders who have advised their intermediary (such as brokers or other nominees) that they do not object to their intermediary disclosing ownership information to the Company, consisting of their name, address, e-mail address, securities holdings and preferred language of communication. Securities legislation restricts the use of that information to matters strictly relating to the affairs of the Company. Objecting beneficial owners ("<b>OBOs</b>") are Beneficial Shareholders who have advised their intermediary that they object to their intermediary disclosing such ownership information to the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">In accordance with the requirements of NI 54-101, the Company is sending the Notice Package directly to NOBOs and indirectly through intermediaries to OBOs. NI 54-101 permits the Company, in its discretion, to obtain a list of its NOBOs from intermediaries and use such NOBO list for the purpose of distributing the Notice Package directly to, and seeking voting instructions directly from such NOBOs. As a result, the Company is entitled to deliver the Notice Package to Beneficial Shareholders in two manners: (a) directly to NOBOs and indirectly through intermediaries to OBOs; or (b) indirectly to all Beneficial Shareholders through intermediaries. In accordance with the requirements of NI 54-101, the Company is sending the Notice Package directly to NOBOs and indirectly through intermediaries to OBOs. The cost of the delivery of the Notice Package by intermediaries to OBOs will be borne by the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Company has used a NOBO list to send the Notice Package directly to NOBOs whose names appear on that list. If the Company's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company, has sent these materials directly to a NOBO at the request of the Company, such NOBO's name and address and information about its holdings of common shares of the Company have been obtained from the intermediary holding such shares on the NOBO's behalf in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements. As a result, any NOBO of the Company can expect to receive a voting instruction form from TSX Trust Company. NOBOs should complete and return the voting instruction form to TSX Trust Company in the envelope provided. In addition, telephone voting and Internet voting are available; instructions in respect of the procedure for telephone and Internet voting can be found in the voting instruction form. TSX Trust Company will tabulate the results of voting instruction forms received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the shares represented by such voting instruction forms.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Applicable securities regulatory policy requires intermediaries, on receipt of Notice Packages that seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders indirectly, to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of Shareholders' meetings on Form 54-101F7 (Request for Voting Instructions Made by Intermediary). Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their shares are voted at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof. Often, the form of request for voting instructions supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker is identical to the form of proxy provided to Registered Shareholders; however, its purpose is limited to instructing the Registered Shareholder how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to appear in person and vote at the Meeting should be appointed as their own representatives at the Meeting in accordance with the directions of their intermediaries and Form 54 101F7. Beneficial Shareholders can also write the name of someone else whom they wish to appoint to attend the Meeting and vote on their behalf. Unless prohibited by law, the person whose name is written in the space provided in Form 54-101F7 will have full authority to present matters to the Meeting and vote on all matters that are presented at the Meeting, even if those matters are not set out in Form 54-101F7 or the Circular.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("<b>Broadridge</b>"). In forwarding the Notice Package to Beneficial Shareholders, Broadridge typically includes a voting instruction form in lieu of the form of proxy that some intermediaries employ. Beneficial Shareholders are requested to complete and return the voting instruction form to Broadridge by mail or facsimile. Alternatively, Beneficial Shareholders can call a toll-free telephone number to vote the shares held by them or access Broadridge's dedicated voting website at <font style="color: #0000ff;"><u>https://central-online.proxyvote.com</u></font> to deliver their voting instructions. Broadridge will then provide aggregate voting instructions to the Company's transfer agent and registrar, which tabulates the results and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of shares to be represented at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">If you are a Beneficial Shareholder and you have appointed yourself or a third party as appointee, and if you or such third party, as the case may be, obtained a 13-digit appointee control number (see "<b>Participation at the Meeting</b>") and logged into the Meeting, any vote cast by you or your appointee at the Meeting will revoke any voting instruction form previously submitted. If you do not wish to revoke a previously submitted voting instruction form, you should not vote during the Meeting. If you are a Beneficial Shareholder and wish to change the vote you submitted prior to the Meeting, you must contact your dealer or other intermediary to learn how to proceed. Please note that to be acted upon, any new instruction must be received by your intermediary sufficiently in advance of the Meeting.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">We have adopted the Corporation's long-term performance incentive plan (the "<b>LTIP</b>"), which was approved by the Shareholders on March 31, 2021. This LTIP was subsequently amended to comply with the new TSX Venture Exchange (the "<b>TSX-V</b>") policy 4.4, <i>Security Based Compensation</i>, issued on November 24, 2021. This amended LTIP was approved by the Shareholders on March 31, 2022. A copy is attached as Appendix "B" to this Circular.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">As our LTIP is a "rolling stock option plan up to 10% and other fixed up to 10%" plan, the TSX-V requires us to obtain annual disinterested shareholder approval of such plan. The Participants are not disinterested Shareholders and, as a result, they will not vote their Common Shares with respect to the LTIP Resolution. These excluded Shareholders (the "<b>Disinterested Shareholders</b>") and their respective associates and affiliates hold an aggregate of approximately 225,000 Common Shares, representing approximately 5.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares, based on available information.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">For the upcoming Meeting, the Company wishes to amend the LTIP to increase<font style="color: #0c0c0c;"> in the number of Stock Units from 60,682 (adjusted for the 70 to 1 reverse split which occurred on October 28, 2022) to 407,274 Stock Units, representing 10% of the Company's outstanding Common Shares as of January 31, 2023.</font></p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>SECTION 3 - DIRECTOR AND EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">This discussion describes our compensation program for each person who acted as President and CEO, CFO and the three most highly-compensated executive officers (or three most highly-compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity), other than the CEO and the CFO, whose total compensation was more than $150,000 in our last fiscal year and who was performing a policy-making function in respect of the Company (each a "<b>NEO</b>" and collectively the "<b>NEOs</b>"). This section addresses our philosophy and objectives and provides a review of the process that the Board follows in deciding how to compensate the NEOs. This section also provides discussion and analysis of the Board's specific decisions about the compensation of the NEOs for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. We had five (5) NEOs during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, namely David Luxton, Executive Chairman, Jeffery MacLeod, President and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Archambault, Chief Financial Officer, VP, Corporate Services &amp; Compliance, and interim Corporate Secretary, Paul Kania, former CFO, and Richard Bowes, VP, Operations of Digitization &amp; Counter-Threat Products.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The aggregate amount of compensation that we paid during the year ended September 30, 2022, (including amount accrued at September 30, 2022) directly and indirectly, including directors' fees, to our named executive officers and directors in their capacity as such, was $1.2 million (2021: $0.7 million).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Compensation Philosophy and Objectives</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our current executive compensation program is designed to provide short and long-term rewards to our executives that are consistent with individual and corporate performance and their contribution to our short and long-term objectives. Our objectives with respect to compensation of executive officers are to provide compensation levels necessary to attract and retain high quality executives, and to motivate key executives to contribute to our interests. These objectives are to be met by the principal components of our executive compensation program, which has been focused on a combination of base compensation, cash bonus remuneration, and long-term incentives in the form of stock options or other security-based compensation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The executive compensation program adopted by us and applied to our executive officers is designed to:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">attract and retain qualified and experienced executives who will contribute to our growth and success;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">ensure that the compensation of our executive officers provides a competitive base compensation package and a strong link between corporate performance and compensation; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">motivate executive officers to enhance long-term shareholder value, with current compensation being weighted toward at-risk long-term incentives in the form of options and other security-based incentives so as to foster alignment with the interests of our shareholders and stakeholders.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">We do not believe that our compensation programs encourage excessive or inappropriate risk taking because: (i) our employees receive both fixed and variable compensation, and the fixed portion (salary) provides a steady income regardless of Common Share value, which allows employees to focus on our business; and (ii) our LTIP encourages a long-term perspective due to the vesting provisions, which is generally at least over two (2) years. We believe that our compensation program is appropriately structured and balanced to motivate our employees and reward the achievement of annual performance goals, as well as the achievement of long-term growth in shareholder value.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Compensation Governance and Process</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">We have relied on the experience of our Board in setting our executive compensation philosophy and appropriate levels of compensation for our NEOs.</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Today, we do not have a separate Compensation Committee. Our Board assumes responsibility as a whole for the oversight over the compensation of directors and executives, including:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">review and approval our remuneration and compensation policies, including short and long-term incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans, bonus plans, pension plans (if any), our LTIP and grants, and benefit plans;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">sole authority to retain and terminate any compensation consultant to assist in the evaluation of director compensation, including sole authority to approve fees and other terms of the retention;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">review and approve at least annually all compensation arrangements for our senior executives;</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">review and approve at least annually all compensation arrangements for our directors; and</li>
        <li style="margin-left: 46.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">review the executive compensation sections disclosed in our management information circular distributed to shareholders in respect of our annual, and any special, meetings of shareholders.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">While David Luxton and Jeffrey MacLeod work with our Board in making recommendations regarding our overall compensation policies and plan as well as specific level of compensation for the other NEOs, they are recused from any Board deliberations and decisions in respect to their own personal compensation. Their respective current fixed compensation was set prior to going public in Canada.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">For Fiscal 2023, we plan to retain an independent consulting firm to conduct a peer review and recommend to the Board competitive compensation plans (short and long-term) for our NEOs and independent directors. Accordingly, this may lead to significant changes to our compensation policies and practices.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Elements of Compensation</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our executive compensation program consists of three principal components: base salaries, annual incentive compensation and benefits, and long-term compensation.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Base Salaries</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Base salaries are intended to reflect an executive officer's position within our corporate structure, their years of experience and level of responsibility, and salary norms in the sector and general marketplace We have not formally conducted benchmarking against our peer group. Further, as an early-stage company, we believe we have set the base salaries for the NEOs below current market to conserve cash in return for higher stock-based compensation awards. As previously noted, for Fiscal 2023 we plan to retain an independent consultant firm to formalize this process. Accordingly, decisions with respect to base salary levels for executive officers are not based on objective identifiable performance measures but for the most part are determined by reference to competitive market information for similar roles and levels of responsibility, coupled with subjective performance factors such as leadership, commitment, accountability, industry experience, and contributions. Our view is that a competitive base salary is a necessary element for retaining qualified executive officers, as it creates a meaningful incentive for individuals to remain with us and not be unreasonably susceptible to recruiting efforts by our competitors.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">In determining the base salary compensation of each NEO, the Board considers: (i) recruiting and retaining executives critical to our success and the enhancement of shareholder value; (ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; (iii) balancing the interests of management and our shareholders; and (iv) rewarding performance, both on an individual basis and with respect to operations in general.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Annual Incentive Compensation and Benefits</b></i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board will consider whether it is appropriate and in our best interests to award discretionary cash bonus to the NEOs for the most recently completed fiscal year and, if so, the amount. Discretionary cash bonuses are awarded to recognize the achievement of annual corporate objectives and to recognize contributions that enhance our intrinsic value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following is a summary of the maximum annual incentive compensation as a percentage of base salary / annual consulting fee, for the NEOs based on their respective employment / consulting agreements, at the sole discretion of the Board:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">We have not established explicit goals / milestones for our NEOs for Fiscal 2022 for the annual cash incentive compensation. However, we have set financial milestones for the vesting of 8,571 PSUs awarded to each of the Executive Chairman and the President &amp; CEO on March 31, 2022. These financial milestones included achieving the following minimum floor:</p>
    <ul style="padding-left: 0pt;" type="disc">
        <li style="margin-left: 28.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">$5 million in customer orders for Fiscal 2022;</li>

        <li style="margin-left: 28.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">$8 million of cash on hand at May 31, 2022.</li>
    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">As these financial milestones were not met, none of the above PSUs vested.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">In July 2022, our Board of Directors approved a $100,000 retention bonus for the CFO, with $50,000 payable 30 days from completing the U.S. IPO, and the remaining $50,000 payable on December 31, 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">In December 2022, our Board of Directors approved USD$225,000 and USD$125,000 discretionary bonus to the Executive Chairman and the CFO, respectively, for their contributions during Fiscal 2022 and positioning the Company for future success including the successful closing of the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offering on December 7, 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Long-Term Compensation</b></i></p>

This component of compensation is intended to reinforce management's commitment to long-term improvements in our performance.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board believes that incentive compensation in the form of Security-Based Compensation Awards which vest over time, is and has been beneficial and necessary to attract and retain NEOs. Furthermore, the Board believes Security-Based Compensation Awards are an effective long-term incentive vehicle because they are directly tied to our share price over a longer period and therefore motivates NEOs to deliver sustained long-term performance and increase shareholder value, and have a time horizon that aligns with long-term corporate goals. As such, our Board does not grant Security-Based Compensation Awards in excessively dilutive numbers or at exercise prices not reflective of the Company's underlying value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">In determining individual equity-based grants, the Board considers the experience, responsibilities and performance of each recipient of an award under the LTIP. Previous grants are also taken into consideration during the grant process.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following is a brief summary of each type of security-based compensation available under our LTIP.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Stock Options</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Eligible Persons (Directors and Key Employees of the Company and its subsidiaries), Consultants and Persons performing Investor Relations Services (as such terms are defined in the LTIP) are eligible to receive grants of stock options to acquire Common Shares at the time of employment or contract, if applicable, and thereafter as determined by the Board.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Restricted Share Units</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Eligible Persons and Consultants, are eligible to receive grants of RSUs, entitling the holder to receive one Common Share for each RSU, subject to restrictions as the Board may, in its sole discretion, establish in the applicable award agreement. The Board believes the granting of RSUs creates long-term incentive, a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and stakeholders. The granting of RSUs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for RSUs in addition to other restrictions, this compensation element is also designed to support long term retention of valuable Key Employees and Directors as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Performance Share Units</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Key Employees and Consultants are eligible to receive grants of PSUs, entitling the holder to receive one Common Share for each PSU, subject to the achievement or attainment of specific performance criteria ("<b>Performance Criteria</b>") within a specific period ("<b>Performance Cycle</b>"). The number of PSUs and the Performance Criteria which must be satisfied in order for the PSUs to vest and the Performance Cycle in respect of such PSUs shall be specified in the applicable award agreement. The Board believes the granting of the PSUs incentivizes the attainment of specific goals which support our overall strategies and creates a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and stakeholders. The granting of PSUs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for PSUs in addition to other restrictions, this compensation element is also designed to support long-term retention of valuable employees as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>

The Board believes the granting of DSUs creates long-term incentive, a sense of ownership and an alignment of the recipients' interests with those of our shareholders and Stakeholders. The granting of DSUs is intended to reward directors who are responsible for oversight of our management and growth and to encourage such directors to maintain a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Stock Appreciation Rights</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Eligible Persons and Consultants are eligible to receive grants of SARs, entitling the recipient to receive a payment in Common Shares equal to the current market price less the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Board at the time of the grant for each SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion, satisfy payment of the entitlement in cash rather than in Common Shares. The granting of SARs is intended to reward those executives who are responsible for our management and growth and to encourage such executives to develop a long-term vision for us to operate in a manner to maximize shareholder value. By using vesting periods for SARs, this compensation element is also designed to support long-term retention of valuable employees as well as provide an incentive for the achievement of specific milestones, if applicable.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Benefits Plans</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The NEOs are entitled to life insurance, health and dental benefits.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">We do not maintain a pension plan or retirement benefit plan for the NEOs.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>External Compensation Consultants</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">During Fiscal 2022 and 2021, we did not retain the services of executive compensation consultants to assist our Board in determining compensation for any of our NEOs or directors. Further, the Board did not adjust the base salary for any NEOs during Fiscal 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Assessment of Risks Associated with Our Compensation Policies and Practices</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board has assessed the compensation plans and programs for our executive officers to ensure alignment with our business plan and to evaluate the potential risks associated with those plans and programs. Our Board has concluded that the compensation policies and practices do not create any risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board considers the risks associated with executive compensation and corporate incentive plans when designing and reviewing such plans and programs. We have not adopted a policy restricting our NEOs or directors from purchasing financial instruments that are designated to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by its NEOs or directors. To our knowledge, none of the NEOs or directors has purchased such financial instruments.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">In connection with the U.S. IPO and Canadian Offerings, our directors and officers have entered into lock-up agreements prohibiting them for trading in KWESST securities for three months from December 9, 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Performance Graph</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following graph illustrates the cumulative return to our shareholders based on a $100 investment in the Common Shares from September 22, 2020, the date we went public in Canada, to September 30, 2022, as compared to the cumulative total return on the Standard &amp; Poor's / TSX-V Composite Index for the same period, assuming the reinvestment of cash distributions and/or dividends:</p>
    <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="exhibit99-2xu001.jpg"></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The trend in the above performance graph does not correlate to the trend of the compensation paid to the NEOs. As described under "Elements of Compensation", based salaries reflect each NEO's primary duties and responsibilities and are set at levels based on responsibility, experience and expertise as well as subjective factors such as leadership. We believe that management must be compensated a minimum base salary for the value of the services provided, irrespective of our Common Share price performance. Pursuant to our LTIP, we have granted Options, RSUs, and PSUs to our NEOs, each form a significant portion of compensation, and therefore the total compensation for the NEOs is directly affected by decreases or increases in the price of our Common Shares as the value of such Options, RSUs, and PSUs changes as our Common Share price changes.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><u><b>Summary Compensation Table</b></u></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following table provides information concerning the total compensation paid and accrued to the NEOs for the years ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Employment and Consulting Agreements</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following summarizes the key salient terms of the employment and consulting agreements between us and our NEOs in force as of September 30, 2022.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>David Luxton</i>: On October 1, 2019, we entered into a professional services agreement with DEFSEC Corporation, a private holding company owned by Mr. Luxton, in which he agreed to serve as our Executive Chairman for an annual fee of $120,000 per year and raising to $150,000 per year upon a going public transaction. This agreement was amended effective August 1, 2020, whereby the annual fee was adjusted to $180,000 per year. Mr. Luxton is entitled to an annual incentive bonus up to 200% of his annual fee at the Board's sole discretion. This agreement will expire on December 31, 2022. We have the right to terminate his consulting agreement with six (6) month notice period, subject to termination benefits (see below<i> - Potential Termination and Change of Control Benefits</i>).</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Jeffrey MacLeod</i>: On October 1, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. MacLeod to serve as our President and CEO with an initial base salary of $140,000 per year and raising to $160,000 upon a going public transaction. Because Mr. MacLeod's principal residence is based in West Montrose, Ontario, his employment agreement includes a $1,000 per month housing allowance for accommodations in Ottawa, Ontario while working at our corporate office. For Fiscal 2019, Mr. MacLeod collected a lower base salary to help us conserve cash to fund our working capital requirements. Further, he did not receive any housing allowance in the last three financial years. Mr. MacLeod is entitled to an annual incentive bonus at the Board's sole discretion and five weeks of vacation per year. His employment agreement will expire on September 30, 2022. We have the right to terminate his consulting agreement with six (6) month notice period, subject to termination benefits (see below<i> - Potential Termination and Change of Control Benefits</i>).</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;"><i>Potential Termination and Change of Control Benefits</i></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">All outstanding equity compensation is forfeited / cancelled if we terminate a NEO's employment / consulting agreement for cause. Further, in the event a NEO voluntarily resigns from his employment / consulting with us, any unpaid annual incentive and unvested equity compensation are forfeited in accordance with our LTIP.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">We have agreements with the NEOs that set out the terms of their employment / consulting and what they are entitled to in connection with a termination of employment or change of control. These agreements include non-solicitation, confidentiality, and ownership of intellectual property provisions to protect our interests.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The table below sets out the amount that would have been payable to each NEO had there been a change of control of the Company on September 30, 2022 and the severance payment that would have been payable to each NEO had the Company terminated employment of the NEO on September 30, 2022:</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">NI 58-101 - <i>Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices</i> ("<b>NI 58-101</b>") defines an "independent director" as a director who has no direct or indirect "material relationship" with the issuer. A <font style="color: #2b2b2b;">" </font>material relationship" is as a relationship which could<font style="color: #2b2b2b;">, </font>in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member's independent judgment. The Board maintains the exercise of independent supervision over management by ensuring that the majority of its directors are independent.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Board is currently comprised of five (5) directors being David Luxton (Executive Chairman), Jeffrey MacLeod, John McCoach, Paul Fortin, and Paul Mangano.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Within the meaning of NI 58-101, the following directors are independent: Messrs<font style="color: #2b2b2b;">. </font>McCoach, Fortin, and Mangano.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Board believes that it functions independently of management and reviews its procedures on an ongoing basis to ensure that it is functioning independently of management. The Board meets without management present, as circumstances require. When conflicts arise, interested parties are precluded from voting on matters in which they may have an interest. In light of the suggestions contained in National Policy 58-201 <font style="color: #444444;">- </font><i>Corporate Governance Guidelines</i><font style="color: #2b2b2b;"><i>, </i></font>the Board convenes meetings<font style="color: #2b2b2b;">, </font>as deemed necessary, of the independent directors, at which nonindependent directors and members of management are not in attendance.</p>

In this regard, we are committed to increasing diversity on our board. In searches for new director candidates, we will consider the level of diversity, including representation of underrepresented individuals and female representation, on the board, which will be one of several factors used in the search process. Further, we will continuously monitor the level of diversity and recruit qualified diverse candidates, including underrepresented individuals and/or female candidates, as part of our overall recruitment and selection process to fill openings, as the need arises, through vacancies, growth or otherwise.</font></p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability among the members of the Board.

        <li style="margin-left: 28.06pt; text-align: justify; padding-left: 7.94pt;">personal qualities and characteristics, accomplishments and reputation in the business community;</li>

    </ul>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Our Board will periodically assess the appropriate number of directors on the Board and whether any vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise. If vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, or the size of the Board is expanded, the Board will consider various potential candidates for director<font style="color: #333333;">. </font>Candidates may come to the attention of the Board through current directors or management, stockholders or other persons. These candidates will be evaluated at regular or special meeting of the Board<font style="color: #111111;">, and may be considered at any point during the year.</font></p>

    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: center;"><b>KWESST Micro Systems Inc.</b> (the "<b>Company</b>")</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: center;">(Adopted effective January 12, 2022)</p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><br>(This document was adopted by the Board of Directors of the KWESST Micro Systems Inc. and<br>supersedes and replaces all prior Audit Committee Charters)</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>I.</b><font style="width: 28.97pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>PURPOSE</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Audit Committee (the "Committee") is a standing committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The primary function of the Committee in respect of its audit committee functions is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to monitoring the Company's accounting and financial reporting and practices and procedures; the adequacy of the Company's internal accounting controls and procedures; the quality and integrity of financial statements and other financial information provided by the Company to shareholders, and others; and for liaising with the external auditors of the Company.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>II.</b><font style="width: 24.69pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>STRUCTURE AND OPERATIONS</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Committee shall be comprised of three or more members of the Board of Directors, each of whom are "independent" as such term is defined under applicable laws and in the rules and regulations of all exchanges and marketplaces on which the securities of the Company may be listed for trading. At least one member of the Committee shall have past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or any other comparable experience or background which results in such individual having financial sophistication. Each member of the Committee shall be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including the Company's balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. Additionally, no member of the Committee shall have participated in the preparation of the financial statements of the Company or any current subsidiary of the Company at any time during the past three years.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The members of the Committee shall be annually appointed by the Board of Directors and shall serve until such member's successor is duly elected and qualified or until such member's earlier resignation or removal. The members of the Committee may be removed, with or without cause, by a majority of the Board of Directors.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Chair shall be annually appointed by the members of the Committee. The Chair shall not be an employee, control person or officer of the Company or any of its associates or affiliates. The Chair shall be entitled to vote to resolve any ties. The Chair will set the agendas for Committee meetings and chair all meetings of the Committee unless the Chair is not present at such meeting in which case the members present shall elect a chair for the conduct of the meeting.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>III.</b><font style="width: 20.41pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>MEETINGS</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Committee shall meet at least quarterly or more frequently as circumstances dictate. As part of its goal to foster open communication, the Committee shall periodically meet with management and the external auditors in separate sessions to discuss any matters that the Committee or each of these groups believes should be discussed privately. The Committee may meet privately with outside counsel of its choosing and the Chief Financial Officer, as necessary. In addition, the Committee shall meet with management quarterly to review the Company's financial statements in a manner consistent with that outlined in Section IV of this Charter and, if the Committee so determines, the external auditors.</p>

    <p style="text-align: justify;">All non-management directors that are not members of the Committee may attend meetings of the Committee but may not vote. Additionally, the Committee may invite to its meetings any directors, management of the Company and such other persons as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities. The Committee may exclude from its meetings any persons it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">A majority of the Committee members, but not less than two, will constitute a quorum. A majority of members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present may act on behalf of the Committee. The Committee may meet by telephone or videoconference and may take action by unanimous written consent with respect to matters that may be acted upon without a formal meeting.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Chair of the Committee shall designate a person, who need not be a member thereof, to act as Secretary, who shall record the proceedings of the meetings. The agenda of each meeting will be prepared by the Secretary, upon consultation with the Chair, and, whenever reasonably practicable, circulated to each member prior to each meeting. The Committee shall maintain minutes or other records of meetings and activities of the Committee.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><b>IV.</b><font style="width: 22.53pt; display: inline-block;">&#160;</font><b>RESPONSIBILITIES, DUTIES, AUTHORITY</b></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The following functions shall be the common recurring activities of the Committee in carrying out its responsibilities outlined in Section I of this Charter. These functions should serve as a guide with the understanding that the Committee may carry out additional functions and adopt additional policies and procedures as may be appropriate in light of changing business, legislative, regulatory, legal and other conditions. The Committee shall also carry out any other responsibilities and duties delegated to it by the Board of Directors from time to time related to the purposes of this Committee outlined in Section I.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Committee, in discharging its duties, is empowered to investigate any matter of interest or concern that the Committee deems appropriate. In this regard, the Committee shall have the authority to retain outside counsel, accounting, or other advisors for this purpose, including authority to approve the fees payable to such advisors and other terms of retention.</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The Committee shall be given full access to the Board of Directors, management, employees of the Company, directly and indirectly responsible for financial reporting, and independent accountants, as necessary, to carry out these responsibilities. While acting within the scope of this stated purpose, the Committee shall have all the authority of the Board of Directors.</p>
