Management Information Circular

for the

Annual Meeting of Shareholders

Thursday, June 15th, 2023

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This management information circular (this "Circular") is furnished in connection with the solicitation by and on behalf of management (the "Management") of The Descartes Systems Group Inc. (the "Corporation") of proxies to be used at the Corporation's annual meeting (the "Meeting") of holders of common shares of the Corporation (the "Common Shares") to be held on Thursday, June 15^th, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) or at any adjournment(s) thereof. It is expected that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited personally, by advertisement, by telephone by employees of the Corporation without special compensation, or by the Corporation's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., at a nominal cost. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Corporation.

DELIVERY OF MEETING MATERIALS

As permitted by the Canadian Securities Administrators and pursuant to an exemption from the management proxy solicitation requirement received from the Director appointed under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "CBCA"), the Corporation is using "notice and access" to deliver proxy-related materials such as this Circular and the Corporation's annual financial statements for the year ended January 31^st, 2023 and associated management's discussion and analysis (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to both registered and non-registered shareholders. Rather than receiving a paper copy of the Meeting Materials in the mail, shareholders will have access to them online. Shareholders will receive a notice package (the "Notice Package") containing the information prescribed by applicable Canadian securities laws (including a description of the matters to be addressed at the Meeting and of the notice and access procedures for accessing the Meeting Materials, as well as a form of proxy (for registered shareholders) or a voting instruction form (for non-registered shareholders). Where a shareholder has previously consented to electronic delivery, the Notice Package will be sent to the shareholder electronically, and otherwise will be mailed to the shareholder. Shareholders are reminded to review the Circular prior to voting.

Electronic copies of the Meeting Materials are available online at www.envisionreports.com/TSCQ2023 and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. All references to websites are for your information only. The information contained on or linked through any website is not part of, and is not incorporated by reference in, this Circular.

Shareholders may obtain paper copies of the Meeting Materials free of charge by following the instructions provided in the Notice Package. Shareholders may request paper copies of the Meeting Materials for up to one year from the date of that this Circular was filed on SEDAR. In order to receive paper copies of the Meeting Materials in advance of the deadline for submission of voting instructions and the date of the Meeting, your request must be received by Computershare by June 13^th, 2023. Please note that if you request a paper copy of the Meeting Materials, you will not receive a new form of

proxy or voting instruction form, and you should therefore retain the forms included in the Notice Package in order to vote.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXIES

The persons specified in the enclosed form of proxy are officers of the Corporation. A shareholder has the right to appoint as a proxyholder a person or company (who need not be a shareholder of the Corporation) other than the persons designated by Management of the Corporation in the enclosed form of proxy (the "Management Appointees") to attend and act on the shareholder's behalf at the Meeting or at any adjournment(s) thereof. Such right may be exercised by inserting the name of the person or company in the blank space provided in the enclosed form of proxy or by completing another form of proxy.

A proxy can be submitted by a registered shareholder to Computershare Trust Company of Canada / Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare") either in person, or by mail or courier, to 100 University Avenue, 8^th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2Y1, or via the internet at www.investorvote.com. The proxy must be deposited with Computershare by no later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on June 13^th, 2023, or if the meeting is adjourned or postponed, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, before the commencement of such adjourned or postponed meeting. If a shareholder who has submitted a proxy attends the meeting via the webcast and has accepted the terms and conditions when entering the meeting online, any votes cast by such shareholder on a ballot will be counted and the submitted proxy will be disregarded.

Registered Shareholders

A person or company whose name appears on the books and records of the Corporation as a holder of Common Shares is a registered shareholder.

A registered shareholder may vote Common Shares owned by it at the Meeting in one of two ways - either in by themselves by participating in the Meeting as set out below or by proxy.

A registered shareholder who does not wish to attend the Meeting or does not wish to vote should properly complete and deliver the enclosed form of proxy, and the Common Shares represented by the shareholder's proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions indicated on the form of proxy, on any ballot that may be called at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof.

Non-Registered Shareholders

A non-registered shareholder is a beneficial owner of Common Shares whose shares are registered in the name of an intermediary (such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, or a clearing agency in which an intermediary participates).

Non-registered shareholders will typically be given the ability to provide voting instructions in one of the following two ways.

Usually, a non-registered shareholder will be given a voting instruction form which must be completed and signed by the non-registered shareholder in accordance with the instructions provided by the intermediary. In this case, a non-registered shareholder cannotuse the mechanisms described above for registered shareholders and must follow the instructions provided by the intermediary (which in some cases may allow the completion of the voting instruction form by telephone or the internet).

Occasionally, however, a non-registered shareholder may be given a proxy that has already been signed by the intermediary. This form of proxy is restricted to the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the non-registered shareholder but is otherwise not completed. This form of proxy does not need to be signed by the non-registered shareholder. In this case, the non-registered shareholder can complete the proxy and return by mail or facsimile only, as described above for registered shareholders.

ATTENDING THE MEETING

The Meeting will only be hosted online by way of a live webcast. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person. A summary of the information shareholders will need to attend the online Meeting is provided below.

Registered Shareholders

Registered shareholders can attend the Meeting online by going to https://meetnow.global/MX7R7QMand clicking on "Shareholder" and entering the applicable control number.

Registered shareholders who wish to appoint a third-party proxyholder other than the Management Appointees to represent them at the online meeting must submit their proxy form prior to registering their proxyholder. Registering the proxyholder, other than the Management Appointees, is an additional step once a shareholder has submitted their proxy. Failure to register a duly appointed proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a Username to participate in the meeting. To register a proxyholder, shareholders MUST visit https://www.computershare.com/descartes by June 13^th, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time and provide Computershare with their proxyholder's contact information, so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with a Username via email.

Non-Registered Shareholders

Any non-registered shareholder receiving either a form of proxy or a voting instruction form who wishes to attend at the Meeting should, in the case of a form of proxy, insert the non-registered shareholder's name in the blank space provided or, in the case of a voting instruction form, follow the corresponding instructions provided by the intermediary. In either case, the non-registered shareholder should carefully follow the instructions provided by the intermediary.

Non-Registered shareholders who wish to appoint a third-party proxyholder other than the Management Appointees to represent them at the online meeting must submit their proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable) prior to registering their proxyholder. Registering the proxyholder is an additional step once a shareholder has submitted their proxy/voting instruction form. Failure to register a duly appointed proxyholder will result in the proxyholder not receiving a Username to participate in the meeting. To register a proxyholder, shareholders MUST visit https://www.computershare.com/descartes by June 13^th, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time and provide Computershare with their proxyholder's contact information, so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with an Invite Code via email.

Written submissions received through the dialog box function will be read or summarized by a representative of the Corporation, after which the Chair of the Meeting or members of management present at the Meeting will respond. Submissions relating to a formal matter to be voted on at the Meeting will be addressed before a vote is held on such matter, if applicable.General questions will be addressed by the Chair of the Meeting and other members of management following the end of the Meeting during the question period.

So that as many submissions as possible are addressed, shareholders and proxyholders are asked to be brief and concise and to cover only one topic per submission. If several submissions relate to the same or very similar topic, the Corporation will group the submissions and state that it has received similar submissions. All shareholder submissions are welcome. However, the Corporation does not intend to address submissions that are: irrelevant to the Corporation's business or to the business of the Meeting; related to non-public information; are repetitive or have already been addressed; are in furtherance of a shareholder's personal or business interests; or are out of order or not otherwise appropriate as determined by the Chair or Secretary of the Meeting in their reasonable judgment.

For any submissions made but not addressed during the question period following the end of the Meeting, a member of the Corporation's management will attempt to contact such shareholder to respond to the submission to the extent the shareholder has provided an email address within their submission. Shareholders may also contact the Corporation's Corporate Secretary at investor@descartes.com.

In the event of technical malfunction or other significant problem that disrupts the Meeting, the Chair of the Meeting may adjourn, recess, or expedite the Meeting, or take such other action as the Chair determines is appropriate considering the circumstances.

A shareholder may also revoke a proxy in any other manner permitted by law.

Non-Registered Shareholders

A non-registered shareholder may revoke previously given voting instructions by contacting his or her Intermediary and complying with any applicable requirements imposed by such Intermediary. An Intermediary may not be able to revoke voting instructions if it receives insufficient notice of revocation.

VOTING OF PROXIES

On any ballot that may be called for, Common Shares represented by properly executed proxies in favour of the persons specified in the enclosed form of proxy will be voted for, against or withheld from voting, as applicable, in accordance with the instructions given thereon. If the shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Common Shares will be voted or withheld from voting accordingly. If no choice is specified in the proxy with respect to a particular matter identified in the accompanying notice of meeting (the "Notice of Meeting"), the Common Shares represented by proxies given in favour of the persons designated by Management will be voted FOR such matter.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the persons specified in the proxy to decide how to vote on any amendment(s) or variation(s) to matters identified in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and on any other matters which may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof. As of the date of this Circular, Management is not aware of any such amendment, variation or other matters. However, if any amendments or variations to matters identified in the accompanying Notice of Meeting, or any other matters that are not now known to Management, should properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, the Common Shares represented by proxies given in favour of the persons designated by Management in the enclosed form of proxy will be voted or withheld from voting by those persons pursuant to such discretionary authority.

VOTING OF SHARES

The board of directors (the "Board") has fixed May 2^nd, 2023 as the record date for the Meeting (the "Record Date"). Shareholders of record at the close of business on May 2^nd, 2023 are entitled to vote the Common Shares registered in their name at that date on each matter to be acted upon at the Meeting. As of the Record Date, the Corporation had 85,078,029 Common Shares issued and outstanding, each entitling the holder to one vote, without cumulation, on each matter to be voted on at

the Meeting. As of the date of this Circular, being May 5, 2023, the number of Common Shares issued and outstanding is 85,078,029.

Under normal conditions, confidentiality of voting is maintained by virtue of the fact that proxies and votes are tabulated by the Corporation's transfer agent. However, such confidentiality may be lost as to any proxy or ballot if a question arises as to its validity or revocation or any other like matter. Loss of confidentiality may also occur if the Board decides that disclosure is in the interest of the Corporation or its shareholders.

A quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting shall be persons not being less than two in number and holding or representing by proxy not less than 25% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares entitled to vote at the Meeting. A quorum is required only at the opening of the Meeting.

The Corporation has been granted an exemption from the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ") that require a quorum at any meeting of the holders of Common Shares of no less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding Common Shares. This exemption was granted because this requirement is not consistent with generally accepted business practices in Canada. In particular, Section 139(1) of the CBCAprovides that a corporation's by-laws may set the quorum requirements for a meeting of shareholders.

PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SHARES

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Corporation, as of the Record Date, the only persons or companies who beneficially owned or controlled or directed, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the votes attached to the outstanding Common Shares were as follows:

Name	Number of Common Shares	Percentage of Class
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.⁽¹⁾	9,973,241	11.7%

(1) The number of Common Shares reported as being under the control or direction of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. is based on the Form 62-103F3 as filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators through SEDAR on April 10, 2023.

CURRENCY

In this Circular, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references to "$" and "US$" are to U.S. dollars and all references to "Cdn.$" are to Canadian dollars. All currency amounts, except where otherwise indicated, have been converted into U.S. dollars at the indicative foreign exchange rate on January 31, 2023, the last business day of fiscal 2023. At that date, the exchange rate, as reported by the Bank of Canada, was US$1.00 = Cdn.$1.335.

Board Independence

National Policy 58-201 - Corporate Governance Guidelines recommends that boards of directors of reporting issuers be composed of a majority of independent directors. The Board is currently composed of a majority of independent directors with nine of the ten current directors being independent. Of the ten nominees standing for election at the Meeting, all are independent with the exception of Mr. Ryan, the CEO of the Corporation.

Independent Chair of the Board

Mr. Demirian, an independent director, is the Chair of the Board, and is responsible for, among other things, providing leadership to ensure that the Board functions independently of Management and non-independent directors and calling, where necessary, the holding of special meetings of the Board, non-Management directors or independent directors.

Meetings of Independent Directors

The independent directors meet without management at every board meeting, including special meetings. The various committees of the Board also hold in-camera sessions of the independent directors at the conclusion of every committee meeting, during which management is not present. The Board met ten (10) times during fiscal 2023, and at each meeting held an in-camera session without members of management present and has met three times between February 1, 2023 and May 5, 2023, again holding an in-camera session at each such meeting without management present.

Director Tenure, Age and Board Renewal

The Corporation does not have director term limits or a formal retirement policy. In considering its approach to these topics, the Board of Directors believes term limits and retirement policies may indiscriminately eliminate both high and low performing directors as well as directors with unique and critical skill sets based solely on tenure or age. Instead, the Board:

Has a process of rigorous annual director peer evaluations that allow the Chair of the Board (or in the case of the evaluation of the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee) to have a clear understanding of relative director contribution, skillset and expertise, so that an appropriate level of director turnover can be achieved by having one or more directors not stand for re-election at appropriate times;

Maintains a director skill set and experience matrix to ensure that, in choosing director candidates, it is focused appropriately on skills and experience critical to the Board's responsibilities, including assessing and providing input on the Corporation's strategic and operating activities; and

Provides clear disclosure in the Corporation's management information circular of director tenure and age and an explanation of how the Corporation's approach ensures diversity of skills, experience, background and gender and an appropriate level of turnover.

The Board strives to maintain a balance of experience and familiarity with the business and operations of the Corporation with fresh perspectives, as reflected by the following chart which summarizes the tenure composition of the current Board, including Ed Ryan as CEO and a member of the Board.

The average tenure of the current directors of the Corporation is 6.4 years and the average age is 62.9 years.

Fifty percent (50%) of the Board is made up of directors who have joined the Board in the past six years and during that period two individuals have retired from the Board.

Nomination of Directors

The Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying and recruiting new candidates for nomination to the Board. The Nominating Committee, on at least an annual basis, reviews the competencies and skills that the Board as a whole should possess as well as the current strengths, skills and experience represented by each current director in light of the objectives, priorities, strategic direction and areas of focus of the Corporation. The Nominating Committee assesses potential candidates for nomination to the Board based on a particular candidate's skills, experience, background and ability to commit and fulfill their duties as a director. The Nominating Committee also considers the Corporation's policy with respect to diversity and the Corporation's current needs after taking into consideration the current composition of the Board.

During fiscal 2022, the Nominating Committee undertook a process to assess the overall composition of the Board and to identify areas of competency, experience and background that may be beneficial to the Board on a go-forward basis. As a result of that process, the Board identified two new candidates for additions to the Board and determined to increase the size of the Board of Directors to ten. Each of those candidates was elected to the Board of Directors in June 2022 and is standing for re-election as set out in this Circular.

Orientation of New Directors

Responsibility for orientation of new directors is assigned by the Board to the Corporate Governance Committee. In this regard, the Corporate Governance Committee's duties include ensuring the adequacy of the orientation and education program for new members of the Board. The Corporate Governance Committee reviews this program on an annual basis.

When a new director joins the Board, the new director's orientation program considers the new director's background and skills as well as the new director's contemplated committee involvement. The orientation program is designed to introduce the new director to the business and to the Corporation's expectations of directors. New directors have the opportunity to meet with the Chair of the Board, the CEO, the President and Chief Operating Officer (the "President and COO"), the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO") and the Corporation's General Counsel, in addition to other senior members of Management. The Corporation's General Counsel also reviews with each new member: (i) certain information regarding the Corporation, including the role of the Board and its committees and the Corporation's corporate history; (ii) certain key documents of the Corporation, including the Corporation's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code of Conduct"), the Corporation's Corporate Governance Framework, the Corporation's policy with respect to diversity, Insider Trading Policy, Disclosure Policy, Risk Management Policy, Board Mandate, committee charters and position descriptions; and (iii) the legal obligations of a director of the Corporation. The Corporation's General Counsel includes the Chair of the Board in this orientation process to assist independent directors with enquiries and information relating to such independent director's role on the Board.

Continuing Education

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for arranging continuing education for directors in order to ensure that directors acquire and maintain skills and knowledge relevant to the performance of their duties as directors. In addition to external continuing education sessions attended by Board members, director education sessions, which are presented by Management or external consultants, are generally scheduled to coincide with the Corporation's regular quarterly Board meetings to extend the Board's knowledge of the Corporation and its operations and topics that the Corporate Governance Committee identifies as relevant to those operations. Sessions conducted for the Board in fiscal 2023 included the following:

Each member of the Board is also eligible for reimbursement of up to $3,000 per fiscal year (Chair of the Board, $5,000) of fees paid by that individual director for enrolment in continuing education courses or programs conducted by third parties or institutions relevant to their role as a director of the Corporation.

Majority Voting for Director Nominees

The election of directors at the meeting will be governed by the majority voting requirements under the CBCA, which became effective in August 2022. These require that in an uncontested election of directors, such as the one planned for the Meeting, in order for a nominee to be elected as a director, they must receive more votes in favour of their election, than against. If a nominee fails to receive a majority of votes in favour of their election, they will not be elected, though they may continue to serve up to 90 days after the Meeting if they were a member of the Board prior to the Meeting. In light of these new CBCA statutory majority voting requirements, the Board resolved to revoke the Corporation's then existing Majority Voting Policy, such that this policy will not apply at the Meeting.

Advance Notice Provisions

The Corporation's by-laws provide for advance notice of nominations of directors ("Advance Notice Provisions") in circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the Board are made by shareholders other than pursuant to a requisition of a meeting or a shareholder proposal, in each case made pursuant to the provisions of the CBCA. The Advance Notice Provisions fix deadlines by which a shareholder must notify the Corporation of nominations of persons for election to the Board as follows: such notice must be provided to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation (i) in the case of an annual meeting (including an annual and special meeting) of shareholders, not less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the meeting is to be held on a date that is less than 60 days after the date (the "Notice Date") on which the first public announcement of the date of the meeting was made, notice by the nominating shareholder may be given not later than the close of business (Eastern time) on the tenth day following the Notice Date; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), not later than the close of business (Eastern time) on the fifteenth day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the meeting was made. The Advance Notice Provisions also stipulate that certain information about any proposed nominee and the nominating shareholder be included in such a notice for it to be valid. The purpose of the Advance Notice Provisions is to ensure that all shareholders, including those participating in a meeting by proxy rather than in person, receive adequate prior notice of director nominations, as well as sufficient information concerning the nominees, and can thereby exercise their voting rights in an informed manner. In addition, the Advance Notice Provisions should assist in facilitating an orderly and efficient meeting process. A copy of the Corporation's by-laws is available on the Corporation's website at www.descartes.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

4.	Continuation, Amendment and Restatement of Shareholder Rights Plan

Background

The Corporation and Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the "Rights Agent") entered into an agreement dated as of May 28, 2020 (the "Rights Plan Agreement") to implement the Amended and Restated Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan"), which amended and restated a predecessor of the Rights Plan that was amended and restated as of June 1, 2017, May 29, 2014, June 2, 2011 and May 29, 2008 and originally established in 2004. The Rights Plan was last confirmed by the shareholders at the annual and special meetings of shareholders held on May 28, 2020. The Corporation's Board has approved an amended and restated shareholder rights plan (the "Amended Rights Plan") that is to be governed by an agreement to be dated the date of the Meeting (the "Amended Rights Plan Agreement"), if approved at the Meeting.

The Amended Rights Plan discourages the making of certain take-over bids by creating the potential of significant dilution to any offeror who becomes the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares. This potential is created through the issuance to all shareholders of contingent rights to acquire additional Common Shares at a significant discount to the then-prevailing market prices, which could, in certain circumstances, become exercisable by all shareholders other than the offeror and its joint actors. An offeror can avoid that potential by making a "Permitted Bid" (as defined in the Amended Rights Plan Agreement), negotiating with the Board to have the rights plan waived, or by applying to a securities commission to "cease trade" the rights issued under the rights plan. Any of these approaches will give the Board more control over such sale process and increase the likelihood of a better offer to the Corporation's shareholders. See "Objectives of the Amended Rights Plan" below.

Proposed Amendments

Certain provisions of the Rights Plan have been revised in the Amended Rights Plan to reflect that the continuation of the Amended Rights Plan will be subject to review by holders of Common Shares at or prior to the annual meeting of such shareholders to be held in the 2026 calendar year.

Apart from the above-mentioned amendments, the Amended Rights Plan is identical to the Rights Plan in all material respects with limited, non-material house-keeping amendments also being proposed. If the Rights Plan Resolution is passed at the Meeting, the Corporation and Rights Agent will execute the Amended Rights Plan Agreement and the Amended Rights Plan will come into effect. If the resolution is not passed, the Rights Plan will become void and of no further force and effect, the Amended Rights Plan Agreement will not be executed and will not become effective and the Corporation will no longer have any form of shareholder rights plan.

At the Meeting, holders of Common Shares will be asked to consider, and if thought advisable, to approve, with or without amendment, the following resolution approving the continuation, amendment and restatement of the shareholder rights plan of the Corporation (the "Rights Plan Resolution"):

BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

1.The shareholder rights plan of the Corporation be continued and the Amended and Restated Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement to be made effective as of June 15, 2023 between the Corporation and Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the "Rights Agent"), which amends and restates the Amended and Restated Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement dated May 28, 2020 between the Corporation and the Rights Agent (the "Rights Plan Agreement") and continues the rights issued under the Rights Plan Agreement, is hereby approved; and

2.Any director or officer of the Corporation is hereby authorized to do all such things and execute all such documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the above resolution.

Summary of the Amended Rights Plan and Copy of the Amended Rights Plan Agreement

A summary of the key features of the Amended Rights Plan is attached as Schedule "A" hereto. All capitalized terms used in this section of the Circular and Schedule "A" have the meanings set forth in the Amended Rights Plan Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The complete text of the Amended Rights Plan Agreement is available on the Corporation's website at www.descartes.com. The complete text of the Rights Plan Agreement is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under filings of "The Descartes Systems Group Inc.", filed on May 4, 2023 under the filing type of "Other securityholders documents". Both the Rights Plan Agreement and the Amended Rights Plan Agreement are also

available to any shareholder upon request to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation. Shareholders wishing to receive a copy of the Rights Plan Agreement or the Amended Rights Plan Agreement should contact the Corporation by email at investor@descartes.com. The description of the Rights Plan, the Rights Plan Agreement, the Amended Rights Plan and the Amended Rights Plan Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Rights Plan Agreement and the Amended Rights Plan Agreement, as applicable.

Objectives of the Amended Rights Plan

Approval of the Amended Rights Plan is not being proposed in response to or in anticipation of any pending or threatened take-over bid, nor to deter take-over bids generally. As of the date of this Circular, the Board is not aware of any third party considering or preparing any proposal to acquire control of the Corporation. The primary objectives of the Amended Rights Plan are to ensure, in the context of a bid for control of the Corporation through an acquisition of the Common Shares, that shareholders have an equal opportunity to participate in a bid.

In approving the Amended Rights Plan, the Board considered, in particular, that while existing securities legislation has addressed many concerns of unequal treatment, there remains the possibility that control or effective control of an issuer may be acquired at a premium to market price which premium is not shared with other security-holders. For example, a bidder could acquire blocks of shares by private agreement from one or a small group of shareholders at a premium to market price which is not shared with the other shareholders. In addition, a person may slowly accumulate securities through stock exchange acquisitions which may result, over time, in an acquisition of control or effective control without payment of fair value for control or a fair sharing of a control premium among all security-holders. These are generally known as "creeping bids" or "exempt bids". The Amended Rights Plan addresses these concerns by applying to all acquisitions of greater than 20% of the Common Shares, including those acquisitions that are not subject to the formal take-over bid rules under Canadian securities laws, to better ensure that shareholders receive equal treatment.

The Amended Rights Plan in no way prohibits a change of control of the Corporation in a transaction that is fair and in the best interests of the Corporation. The rights of shareholders to seek a change in the management of the Corporation or to influence or promote action of management in a particular manner will not be affected by the Amended Rights Plan. The approval of the Amended Rights Plan does not affect the duty of a director to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation.

General Impact of the Amended Rights Plan

It is not the intention of the Board, in approving the Amended Rights Plan, to secure the continuance of existing directors or management in office, nor to avoid a bid for control of the Corporation in a transaction that is fair and in the best interests of the Corporation. For example, through the Permitted Bid mechanism, described in more detail in the summary contained in Schedule "A" hereto, shareholders may tender to a bid that meets the Permitted Bid criteria without triggering the Amended Rights Plan, regardless of the acceptability of the bid to the Board. Furthermore, even in the context of a bid that does not meet the Permitted Bid criteria, the Board will continue to be bound to consider fully and fairly any bid for the Common Shares in any exercise of its discretion to waive application of the Amended Rights Plan or redeem the Rights. In all such circumstances, the Board must act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation.

The Amended Rights Plan does not preclude any shareholder from utilizing the proxy mechanism under the CBCA and securities laws to promote a change in the management or direction of the Corporation, or its Board, and has no effect on the rights of holders of outstanding Common Shares to requisition a meeting of shareholders in accordance with the provisions of applicable corporate and

securities legislation, or to enter into agreements with respect to voting their Common Shares. The definitions of "Acquiring Person" and "Beneficial Ownership" have been developed to minimize concerns that the Amended Rights Plan may be inadvertently triggered or triggered as a result of an overly-broad aggregation of holdings of institutional shareholders and their clients.

The Amended Rights Plan will not interfere with the day-to-day operations of the Corporation. The continuation of the Rights Plan does not in any way alter the financial condition of the Corporation, impede its business plans or alter its financial statements.

The Board believes that the dominant effect of the Amended Rights Plan will be to maximize the Corporation's opportunity to enhance shareholder value and ensure equal treatment of all shareholders in the context of a take-over bid for the Common Shares.

Vote Required

The Amended Rights Plan has been conditionally approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), subject to shareholder approval. The TSX and the terms of the Rights Plan Agreement require that the continuation of the Rights Plan, and amendment and restatement of the Rights Plan Agreement, must be approved by (i) a simple majority of the votes cast in favour of the Rights Plan Resolution by all shareholders, whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting; and (ii) a simple majority of the votes cast in favour of the Rights Plan Resolution by the Independent Shareholders (as defined in the Rights Plan), whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting. If the Rights Plan Resolution is passed at the Meeting, the Corporation and the Rights Agent will execute the Amended Rights Plan Agreement as of the date the resolution is passed and the Amended Rights Plan will come into effect. If the Rights Plan Resolution is not passed, the Rights Plan will become void and of no further force and effect, the Amended Rights Plan Agreement will not be executed and the Amended Rights Plan will not become effective and the Corporation will no longer have any form of shareholder rights plan.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board has reviewed the Amended Rights Plan for conformity with current practices of Canadian issuers with respect to shareholder rights plan design. Based on its review, the Board has determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Corporation that the Corporation have in place a shareholder rights plan in the form of the Amended Rights Plan. Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote FOR the continuation of the Rights Plan as the Amended Rights Plan, and amendment and restatement of the Rights Plan Agreement as the Amended Rights Plan Agreement. On April 28, 2023, the Board resolved to authorize, subject to regulatory approval and approval by the shareholders at the Meeting, the entering into of the Amended Rights Plan Agreement. The Corporation has been advised that the directors and senior officers of the Corporation intend to vote all Common Shares held by them FOR the Rights Plan Resolution. In the absence of a contrary instruction, the persons designated by Management in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Rights Plan Resolution.

5.	Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation (Say-On-Pay Vote)

The Board has determined to provide the Corporation's shareholders with an advisory vote on the Corporation's approach to executive compensation. While this "Say-on-Pay" vote is non-binding, it gives shareholders an opportunity to provide important input to the Board. Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider, and, if deemed advisable, adopt the following resolution (the "Say-On-Pay Resolution"):

"BE IT RESOLVED, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board, that the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation disclosed in the Corporation's Management Information Circular dated May 5, 2023."

Approval of the Say-On-Pay Resolution will require an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of Common Shares present or represented by proxy at the Meeting.

In the absence of a contrary instruction, the persons designated by Management in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote FOR the Say-On-Pay Resolution.

As this is an advisory vote, the results will not be binding upon the Board. However, the Board of Directors will take the results of the vote into account, as it deems appropriate, when considering future compensation policies, procedures and decisions and in determining whether to increase its current engagement practices with shareholders on compensation and related matters. The Corporation will disclose the results of the shareholder advisory vote as part of its report of voting results for the Meeting.

At the previous year's annual meeting of shareholders held on June 16^th, 2022, 94.69% of the votes cast by shareholders were cast in favour of the "Say-on-Pay" resolution.

6.	Other Matters

The Corporation knows of no other matters to be submitted to the shareholders at the Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons designated by Management in the enclosed form of proxy to vote the Common Shares they represent in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

The Board and Management consider good corporate governance to be central to the effective operation of the Corporation. Both Management and the Board, with the assistance of the Corporate Governance Committee, have devoted significant attention and resources to ensuring that the Corporation's system of corporate governance meets or exceeds applicable legal and stock exchange requirements, and reflects consideration of best practices in corporate governance and their application to the Corporation's circumstances.

The Corporation is subject to the requirements of the Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices; National Policy 58-201 - Corporate Governance Guidelines; and National Instrument 52-110 - Audit Committees (the "Audit Committee National Instrument").

The Corporation is also subject to certain requirements of the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act and requirements of the TSX and NASDAQ and comparable requirements under Canadian provincial securities legislation, including those relating to the certification of financial and other information by the Corporation's CEO and CFO; oversight of the Corporation's external auditors; enhanced independence criteria for audit committee members; the pre-approval of permissible non-audit services to be performed by the Corporation's external auditors; and the establishment of procedures for the anonymous submission of employee complaints regarding the Corporation's accounting practices (commonly known as whistle-blower procedures).

The Board and Management believe that the Corporation has a sound governance structure in place for both Management and the Board, and a comprehensive system of internal controls designed to ensure reliability of financial records. These structures and systems are reviewed and assessed on a regular basis considering developments in both Canada and the United States relating to corporate governance, accountability and disclosure.

Mandate of the Board of Directors

The Board is responsible for the overall stewardship of the Corporation. The Board discharges this responsibility directly and through delegation of specific responsibilities to committees of the Board, the Chair of the Board, and the executive officers of the Corporation, all as more particularly described in the Board Mandate attached to this Circular as Schedule "B".

Risk Oversight

The Board Mandate, among other things, describes the Board's responsibility for oversight of risks impacting the Corporation. The Board Mandate provides that the Board will provide regular oversight of the Corporation's risk management practices, either directly or through its committees, and, with the assistance of its committees, oversee Management's assessment, management and monitoring of key risks affecting the Corporation and the Corporation's risk management/monitoring systems. The Board Mandate also provides that the Board will, with the assistance of the Audit Committee, review the controls relating to financial information and the integrity of the Corporation's financial information and systems, the effectiveness of internal controls and Management's reports on those controls.

Consistent with the Board Mandate, the Corporation has adopted a risk management policy that is reviewed and updated as necessary on an annual basis (the "Risk Management Policy") that establishes principles to guide Management's implementation and operation of the Corporation's risk management program, which are based on the International Standards Organization's ISO 31000:2009, Risk management - Principles and guidelines. The Risk Management Policy also establishes a framework for risk management (the "Risk Management Framework") that includes risk identification, risk assessment/measurement, risk response and control activities, risk reporting and communication, risk monitoring and risk reduction/mitigation.

Each fiscal quarter, Management reports directly to the Board and Audit Committee on existing and emerging risks impacting the Corporation's business risk profile, including human-resource based risk, regulatory changes, litigation, changes in customer relationships, information technology risks, cyber-security risks, product development, credit and liquidity risks, market risks and other business risks, including those more particularly identified in the "Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results" section of the Corporation's periodic financial reports. Management also reports to the Audit Committee on an ongoing basis on Management's risk management activities consistent with the Risk Management Framework. In addition, on an ongoing basis the Board and Management consider short- and long-term risks in developing the Corporation's strategic plans. If new or emerging risks are identified, the Board considers what, if any, amendments to the Corporation's existing policies and procedures are appropriate to establish compensating controls to manage or mitigate the risk. On an ongoing basis, the Corporate Governance Committee and Audit Committee review the Corporation's Risk Management Policy and Risk Management Framework to assist the Board in evaluating the framework's effectiveness.

Although the Board as a whole has responsibility for risk oversight, the Board exercises its oversight of the Corporation's risk management policies and practices primarily through its committees, which in turn report back to the Board on risk oversight.

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing risks related to our accounting, financial statements, financial reporting process and internal controls related to financial reporting. The Board has also assigned to the Audit Committee primary responsibility for overall enterprise risk management and oversight of the Corporation's risk management policies, except in those areas where other committees have express responsibility for specific categories of risk, for example, the Compensation Committee in the area of compensation-related risk. As discussed above, the Audit Committee is also responsible for receiving reports from Management on an ongoing basis related to the risk management activities undertaken pursuant to the Risk Management Framework.

Within its oversight of overall enterprise risk management, the Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of the Corporation's approach to cyber-security risk management. On a quarterly basis, the Audit Committee receives an update from Management on the Corporation's ongoing approach to cyber-security risk management and on a periodic basis the Audit Committee receives reports from third party consultants related to reviews of the Corporation's level of maturity in its cyber-security risk management practices. As part of its annual review of the Corporation's commercial insurance program, the Audit Committee also reviews the level of cyber-security specific insurance maintained by the Corporation.

Also, within its oversight of overall risk management, the Audit Committee exercises oversight of the Corporation's approach to climate-related risks that may be relevant to the Corporation and, on a quarterly basis, the Audit Committee together with Management considers any climate-related events or developments that may pose a material risk to the Corporation or its financial performance.

The Board delegates to the Compensation Committee the responsibility to provide risk oversight of the Corporation's compensation policies and practices, and to identify and mitigate compensation policies and practices that could encourage inappropriate or excessive risks by members of senior Management. See "Compensation - Compensation Discussion and Analysis - Compensation-related Risks".

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for monitoring risk and potential risks associated with the effectiveness of the Corporation's corporate governance framework and for monitoring risks in the areas of environmental and social governance.

The Nominating Committee is delegated responsibility to monitor risks related to overall Board composition and director succession.

The Board reviews the composition of its committees at least annually, typically following the annual meeting of the Corporation's shareholders, to ensure that the committees are appropriately composed to discharge each committee's respective responsibilities. In assigning committee responsibilities among its members, the Board considers factors including the applicable restrictions and requirements of committee composition established by law and regulation; the qualifications and knowledge of the individual members eligible to serve on committees; and the relative distribution of committee responsibilities to each individual member.

ESG Oversight

Although the Board has, through its oversight of the overall governance framework under which the Corporation has operated, exercised oversight over many of the areas that now fall within the broad concepts of environmental, social and governance ("ESG") initiatives, the Board has recently updated its Board Mandate to expressly recognize the role of the Board in reviewing the Corporation's approach to ESG on a regular basis. In addition, specific responsibility for oversight of the Corporation's ESG initiatives has been delegated by the Board to its Corporate Governance Committee and, similarly, the committee charter for the Corporate Governance Committee was updated in 2022 to expressly identify the Committee's role in this area.

For further discussion of the Corporation's approach to ESG, please see the section below under the heading "Environmental and Social Governance Framework".

Role of Board in Corporate Strategy

The Board engages in a detailed review and discussion of the Corporation's short- and long-term strategy on at least an annual basis. The primary areas of focus in such reviews include consideration of forecasted areas of growth, planned investments, corporate development initiatives, capitalization

requirements of the Corporation and overall organizational development. In addition to the formally scheduled strategy review sessions, the Board also regularly engages in considering various elements of the Corporation's strategy as part of each quarterly review of the financial results of the Corporation.

Committee Charters and Position Descriptions

The Board delegates certain responsibilities to the following four committees of the Board: (i) the Audit Committee; (ii) the Compensation Committee; (iii) the Corporate Governance Committee; and (iv) the Nominating Committee.

Recognizing the international nature of the Corporation's operations and the global composition of its workforce, "diversity" under this Diversity Policy expressly includes factors such as gender, age, persons with disabilities, race, nationality, culture, language and other ethnic distinctions, education and regional and industry experience.

Gender diversity is one factor that is considered in identifying and selecting board members and in considering the hiring, promotion and appointment of its senior management. The Corporation regularly considers the level of representation of women on the Board and in senior management positions. The Corporation does not have specific targets respecting the representation of women on the Board and in senior management positions, instead focusing on choosing the most appropriate candidate for the position. However, in assessing the appropriateness of candidates for board and senior management appointments, the Corporation considers the desirability of an appropriate level of representation of women on its board and in senior management positions. Specifically in the context of identification of potential candidates for roles on the Board, the Nominating Committee ensures that the list of potential candidates that it initially considers as part of its process includes female candidates and to the extent that the Nominating Committee uses the assistance of a third-party search firm to establish an initial list of potential candidates, that search firm is instructed to ensure that female candidates are included in the list. The Nominating Committee also attempts to ensure that its list of potential candidates for any new board position includes individuals who are members of a visible minority.

On an annual basis, the Nominating Committee (i) assesses the effectiveness of the Board nomination processes at achieving the Corporation's diversity objectives; and (ii) considers if it is advisable to recommend to the Board for adoption, measurable objectives for achieving diversity on the Board. Further to the foregoing, among other things, the Nominating Committee considers (i) the number of women considered or brought forward for a position on the Board; (ii) the skills, knowledge, experience and other characteristics of female candidates to ensure that such candidates have been fairly considered relative to other candidates; and (iii) the number of women on the Board and the proportion (in percentage terms) of persons on the Board.

Having regard to the current composition of the Board, the Nominating Committee is satisfied that the Board represents a well-balanced combination of diversity across multiple factors, including gender, age, race, nationality, education and regional and industry experience.

Of the current Board of ten directors, six members (60% of the Board) self-identify as being in diverse categories with four (40%) being women and two members (20%) identifying as members of a visible minority. In looking at the independent directors only by excluding the CEO, these percentages increase to 44% representation by women and 22% representation by individuals identifying as members of a visible minority.

As noted above, gender diversity is one factor that the Corporation considers in the hiring, promotion and appointment of individuals for senior management roles. The Corporation does not have specific targets for the number of women in senior management positions, again, choosing to focus on hiring the most appropriate candidate for the position but having regard to an overall interest in increasing the level of representation of women within senior management roles at the Corporation. Management reports to the Board on a quarterly basis with respect to the composition of its workforce including specific disclosure of the number of women within the overall employee base as well as in senior management positions within the Corporation. The Board, in its quarterly one-on-one meetings with the CEO, regularly reinforces its interest in continuing to attract and promote women into senior management positions within the Corporation.

Upon adoption of the Corporation's first formal diversity policy in December 2014, there were three women who were part of the senior management team of the Corporation, being at the level of senior manager (or equivalent) or above, but there were no women in executive officer positions of the Corporation. Currently, there are twenty-one (21) women who are part of the senior management team of the Corporation, representing 21% of the total group of 100 positions that the Corporation currently identifies as being senior management but there are not currently any women in any of the ten roles that are currently identified as executive officer positions of the Corporation. This is an increase from the fifteen (15) women and 15% respectively, that the Corporation had reported within the 96 senior management positions identified in its Information Circular for fiscal 2022.

In reference to the disclosure requirements under the Canada Business Corporations Act, the Corporation has not adopted a written policy that specifically relates to the identification and nomination of women, aboriginal peoples in Canada, persons with disabilities and members of visible minorities (the "Designated Groups") for election as directors or for the appointment of members of senior management. As discussed above, the current Diversity Policy of the Corporation includes consideration of broader categories of diversity beyond those of the Designated Groups (but which encompass the Designated Groups) and which the Board considers to be better aligned to achieve the range of perspectives, experience and expertise required by the Corporation. As noted above, four of the ten Directors on the Board are women, and two other Directors identify as members of a visible minority. Also as noted above, currently 21% of the individuals in senior management positions at the Corporation are women. The Corporation has not requested that individuals within its senior management positions provide self-identification information by which the Corporation can identify if such individuals may constitute a member of a Designated Group and does not have data available to report the level of representation in its senior management positions across those Designated Groups beyond gender.

Please refer to the earlier discussion under the heading of "Director Tenure and Age" for our approach to director renewal and term limits.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has adopted the Code of Conduct applicable to the Corporation's directors and employees. A copy of the Code of Conduct is available on the Corporation's website at https://www.descartes.com/who-we-are/investor-relations/corporate-governanceand has been filed on and is accessible through SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The Code of Conduct sets out in detail the core values and principles by which the Corporation is governed and addresses topics such as: honest and ethical conduct; conflicts of interest; compliance with applicable laws and the Corporation's policies and procedures; public disclosure and books and records; use of corporate assets and opportunities; confidentiality of corporate information; reporting responsibilities and procedures; health and safety; and non-retaliation.

The Corporation's General Counsel is responsible for communicating the Code of Conduct to directors, officers, and employees and assisting the Corporate Governance Committee in administering the Code of Conduct. The Corporate Governance Committee monitors overall compliance with the Code

of Conduct. The Corporation's General Counsel and Corporate Governance Committee each report to the Board at regular quarterly meetings of the Board on any issues or concerns that have been raised, provided that any issues or concerns specifically related to accounting, internal financial controls and/or auditing are reviewed and forwarded to the Audit Committee.

In addition, the Board has adopted and communicated policies and procedures for the submission by employees, directors or officers of concerns regarding accounting matters or violations of the Code of Conduct or applicable laws; and the receipt, retention and treatment of such concerns. The Board and the Audit Committee have established a confidential, anonymous hotline to encourage employees, officers and directors to raise concerns regarding matters covered by the Code of Conduct (including accounting, internal controls or auditing matters) on a confidential basis free from discrimination, retaliation or harassment. Employees have also been advised that concerns relating to compliance with the Code of Conduct may also be raised to an independent director by way of the Chair of the Board. Frequent reminders are sent to employees about the availability of the hotline.

As noted above under the description of the duties of the Corporation's Audit Committee, the Audit Committee has responsibility for oversight and review of any related-party transaction between the Corporation or any of the subsidiary companies under the direct or indirect control of the Corporation and any Director or any executive officer of the Corporation. Under the terms of the Audit Committee Charter this includes any transaction or series of transactions in the same fiscal year involving a payment or any other consideration payable to or receivable by any Director or executive officer of the Corporation outside of approved compensation arrangements or customary expense reimbursement. There were no such related-party transactions in fiscal 2023 or agreements in respect of which a Director or executive officer declared a material interest in fiscal 2023.

Succession Planning

Oversight of the Corporation's succession planning is primarily the responsibility of the Compensation Committee, with the Nominating Committee having responsibility for succession planning related to the role of the Chair of the Board. Each of these two committees is comprised entirely of independent directors. In addition, other committees of the Board may be consulted in the succession planning process depending upon the specific role under consideration.

The Corporation's process for succession planning for the roles held by Management, including the CEO, involves the identification and consideration of potential internal and external candidates based on various factors, including the following: executive experience; market and industry expertise; geographic location; familiarity with the Corporation's business and customers; and past successes in achieving particular corporate goals. Interim internal successors for those roles are also identified for the purposes of the Corporation's Emergency Succession Plan, and these may differ from those identified as potential longer-term succession candidates.

The Compensation Committee reviews the Corporation's Emergency Succession Plan on at least an annual basis. The Compensation Committee also reviews the CEO's recommendations for the ongoing longer-term succession plans for other members of Management.

In succession planning for the role of the CEO, the Compensation Committee, with the assistance of the Corporation's senior human resources management, has developed a skills matrix that identifies the key skills and experience that would be important in any successor to the CEO role. The Compensation Committee utilizes that matrix in considering whether there are individuals within the existing senior management team who have the skills and experience to be a potential successor to the CEO role and what additional skills or experience might need to be further developed or expanded by any of those individuals.

Succession planning for the CEO role and other key senior management roles is regularly discussed between the Compensation Committee and the CEO at quarterly in-camera meetings without other members of Management present. The recommendations and views of the Compensation Committee and, in the case of the Chair of the Board, the Nominating Committee in respect of succession planning are presented to the Board on an annual basis for consideration at a session without Management present.

Shareholder Engagement

The Board has a formal shareholder engagement policy that encourages regular and constructive engagement directly with shareholders by both Management and the Board. Members of the Board actively contact a target list of the largest shareholders of the Corporation on at least a bi-annual basis to solicit feedback from those shareholders on the performance of the CEO; the performance of the Board; the performance of the Corporation generally; and overall governance and compensation matters. These meetings are generally held with the Chair of the Board and the Chair of either the Compensation Committee, the Corporate Governance Committee or the Audit Committee. The Board most recently engaged in this shareholder engagement process during fiscal 2023 and a significant percentage of the Corporation's largest shareholders accepted the invitation to provide feedback directly to the Board through this process. This policy of engagement has also included regular meetings with the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance to review governance and compensation matters relative to the Corporation.

In addition to engagement with shareholders by the Board, Management also regularly engages with shareholders of the Corporation and attempts to meet with, or offer meetings to, each of the Corporation's largest shareholders on at least an annual basis. On a quarterly basis, Management holds a conference call available to all shareholders to review the financial and operating results of the most recently completed quarter and several of our Management regularly attend and speak at various investor conferences and broker-sponsored meetings with groups of investors and potential investors.

On an annual basis, our shareholders are invited to consider and approve an advisory resolution on our approach to executive compensation.

Environmental, Social and Governance Framework

The Corporation recognizes the role that it can play in helping advance environmental, social and governance initiatives ("ESG Initiatives") that are important to our stakeholders, including our shareholders, customers, suppliers and employees. The Corporate Governance Committee exercises oversight over the Corporation's ESG Initiatives and consider progress towards these initiatives on a quarterly basis. In order to demonstrate its commitment to these principles, the Corporation has adopted an Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability Statement to provide guidance to the Corporation's employees, customers and business partners of its expectations in this regard. A current copy of that statement is as follows.

The Descartes Systems Group Inc.

Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability Statement

The Descartes Systems Group Inc. (the "Company")'s approach to environmental, health, safety and sustainability matters is founded on the following principles: respect for human rights (in accordance with the Company's Human Rights Statement), the protection of the health and wellbeing of the Company's employees and the protection of the environment at each of the Company's global offices and in the manner in which the Company operates its business.

The Company believes that each employee, regardless of his/her/their role in the organization, is accountable for these matters. Accordingly, each employee is expected to and empowered to take responsibility for conducting himself/herself/themself in a manner that is consistent with the principles of this statement.

Specifically, the Company is committed to:

•

Complying with all social, occupational health and safety and environmental legislation applicable to the Company's services and operations;

•

Encouraging each employee to take personal responsibility for the environmental, health, safety and sustainability matters within his/her/their department;

•

Identifying and eliminating hazards, if practical, and mitigating risks related to environmental, health, safety and sustainability matters;

•

Involving and consulting employees in addressing environmental, health, safety and sustainability risks through committees and representatives;

•

Promoting the minimization of the use of energy and the elimination, reduction, reuse and recycling of waste materials as part of Company-wide initiatives to improve the life cycle environmental effects of the Company's services and operations;

•

Fostering awareness of sustainability principles amongst the Company's employees;

•

Promoting the principles of this statement to the Company's suppliers and partnering with suppliers and organizations that are ethically, socially and environmentally responsible;

Organizational Governance

Within the area of Organizational Governance, we have adopted a number of policies and procedures to reinforce the principle that the Corporation, and its employees and directors, should at all times act in an ethical, respectful and responsible manner. These include our Code of Business Conduct, Business Partner Code of Conduct, Diversity Policy, Global Anti-Corruption Policy, Disclosure Policy, Whistle-blower Policy, Anti-Harassment Policy and a variety of other policies that set the tone for the type of workplace we intend to operate and the manner in which we expect all employees and directors to conduct themselves.

Environmental Impact

The Corporation is proud of the positive environmental impacts that can be achieved through the use of many of its solutions and services. For readers who are interested in the positive environmental impacts that some of the products and solutions of the Corporation can have for its customers, the Corporation has published an Environmental Impact guide which is available on its website at www.descartes.com that outlines many of the positive benefits from some of the Corporation's solutions in reductions in paper, reductions in fuel consumption, reductions in numbers of vehicles on the road and to generally improve efficiencies in various transportation and logistics processes.

In addition to the benefits the Corporation's solutions deliver to its customers in helping them achieve their own environmental impact goals, the Corporation has also taken a number of actions of its own to positively impact its own environmental footprint including:

(a)

reducing paper usage by adopting paperless processes where possible;

(b)

adopting electronic signing processes for documents to reduce paper copies and mail/courier usage and by default requiring two-sided printing of paper documents where a paper copy is required;

(c)

adoption of several communication tools to enable remote collaboration between employees and with customers and to reduce travel where possible;

(d)

reducing the number and sizes of corporate offices wherever possible to reduce heating, cooling and electrical consumption; and

(e)

adoption of recycling programs in those jurisdictions and office locations where it is supported.

As directly relevant to this Information Circular, the Corporation has adopted notice-and-access to distribute the Meeting Materials, thereby reducing the number of pages of paper required for printing and a significant volume of mail weight that would otherwise need to be handled by postal delivery.

Human Rights and Labour Practices

The Corporation has adopted a number of policies that are focused on respecting the rights of all employees and providing a safe and healthy working environment. These include compliance with requisite occupational health and safety requirements of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our Code of Business Conduct and our Anti-Harassment Policy are two key components of our approach in this area. In addition, we expect each of our suppliers to respect basic human rights in their own operations and we enshrine that principle in our Business Partner Code of Conduct which defines the standards by which we expect our suppliers to conduct their own businesses.

The Corporation is committed to the protection of personal information and to the principle of only using such information for the purpose for which it was provided and has implemented a variety of measures to protect the security and confidentiality of the data it processes.

The Corporation has also adopted a policy on director and executive officer diversity to recognize the value of diversity within members of the Board and Management. We refer to the discussion earlier under the heading "Policy on Diversity".

Recognizing that the Corporation's commitments to these principles are reflected in a variety of different policies, the Corporation has adopted an over-arching Human Rights Statement which can be found below.

The Descartes Systems Group Inc.

Human Rights Statement

The Descartes Systems Group Inc. and its various affiliates (collectively, the "Company") is committed to providing a global work environment that is free from harassment or discrimination based on the grounds enumerated in federal, national, state, provincial or other Human Rights legislation. More fundamentally, in addition to compliance with applicable laws and regulations, the Company is steadfast in conducting its business in a manner that is consistent with internationally recognized norms, tenets and principles such as the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

These core values are specifically reflected in the manner by which the Company conducts itself in its dealings with its prospective and current employees, its customers and its other stakeholders as further outlined in the following practices, policies and initiatives:

•

Providing a safe space for employees that is free of harassment, bullying and violence as expressed in the Company's Workplace Violence and Harassment Policy and Program;

•

Promoting ethical conduct and behaviour by our employees and suppliers through adherence to the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics;

Fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment and providing opportunities for underrepresented employee groups and communities to participate and thrive;

•

Recognizing the right of our employees to join associations of their own choosing or to refrain from joining, and the right to collective bargaining; and

•

Maintaining safe, healthy and respectful working conditions in accordance with the Company's Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability Statement.

Business Conduct and Fair Dealing

The Corporation is committed to conducting its business in an ethical and honest manner. This principle is a core component of the approach taken in the design of the Corporation's Code of Business Conduct, our Business Partner Code of Conduct and our Global Anti-Corruption Policy. Our Code of Business Conduct is an internally facing policy, designed to set out our expectations of our employees in how they conduct themselves in their business dealings on behalf of the Corporation and in the performance of their duties. This includes guidance in the areas of ethical conduct in dealing with customers, suppliers and co-workers; avoiding conflicts of interest; compliance with applicable laws; and reporting of any violations of the code itself. Our Business Partner Code of Conduct sets out our expectations of how our suppliers will conduct themselves in their business operations, including our expectations of their compliance with applicable laws, providing a safe work environment, following sound labour practices, compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and responsible sourcing.

For readers that want to learn more about the Corporation's activities and progress specifically in the areas of ESG, the Corporation has published a more comprehensive statement related to its

progress in various ESG initiatives by way of a Corporate ESG Report for 2023 which is available on the Corporation's website at www.descartes.com.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with Management the following Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended to the Board that the following Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Circular.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides you with a detailed description of our executive compensation objectives, philosophy and programs, the compensation decisions we have made under those programs, and the rationale and details supporting specific compensation decisions relating to our fiscal 2023 period ended January 31, 2023.

Overview of Compensation Program

The CEO, CFO and the Corporation's three other most highly compensated executives (collectively, the "Named Executive Officers" or "NEOs"), who are the subject of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, are as set forth in the following table:

Name	Position
Edward J. Ryan	Chief Executive Officer
Allan Brett	Chief Financial Officer
J. Scott Pagan	President & Chief Operating Officer
Andrew Roszko	Chief Commercial Officer
Kenneth Wood	Executive Vice President, Product Management

The Compensation Committee's oversight is designed to ensure that total compensation paid to the NEOs is fair and reasonable and consistent with our compensation philosophy.

Executive Officer Compensation Philosophy

The Compensation Committee believes that compensation plays an important role in achieving the Corporation's short- and long-term business objectives that ultimately drive business success in alignment with long-term shareholder goals. The Corporation's compensation philosophy is based on three fundamental principles:

Strong link to business strategy- the performance required to successfully execute our business strategy and achieve the Corporation's short- and long-term goals should be reflected in our overall compensation program;

Performance-based- compensation should be linked to the operating and financial performance of the Corporation to a significant degree; and

Market-relevant- compensation should be market competitive in terms of value and structure in order to retain key employees who are performing according to their objectives and to attract new talented employees.

What we do	What we don't do
Link executive pay to company performance through our annual and long-term incentive plans	No single-trigger change-in-control provisions
Balance among short- and long-term incentives, cash and equity and fixed and variable pay	No golden-parachute type arrangements
Compare executive compensation and company performance to relevant peer group companies	No hedging or pledging by executives or directors of equity holdings
Require executives to meet minimum stock ownership requirements	No re-pricings of underwater stock options
Maintain a compensation claw-back policy to recapture unearned incentive pay	No tax gross-ups
Provide only limited perquisites	No aspect of our pay policies or practices pose material adverse risk to the Company

Compensation Objectives

The objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

Attract and retain highly-qualified executive officers;

Align the interests of executive officers with our shareholders' interests and with the execution of our business strategy;

Evaluate executive performance based on key financial measurements which we believe closely measure the performance of our business; and

Tie compensation directly to those measurements based on achieving and overachieving predetermined objectives.

Market Competitive Compensation for Attracting and Retaining Highly Qualified Executive Officers

We seek to attract and retain high performing executives by offering competitive compensation; and an appropriate mix and level of short- and long-term financial incentives. We benchmark compensation to a comparator group of peer companies to assess the competitiveness of our compensation programs. The comparator group is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee with assistance from its independent compensation consultant. The comparator group used by the Compensation Committee to assess compensation levels at the beginning of fiscal 2023 and for the purposes of setting performance criteria for performance-based awards comprised 16 publicly traded peers in the technology industry, consisting of two Canadian peers, 13 US peers and one Australian peer (the "Comparator Group"). The Corporation was positioned as follows against the Comparator Group in terms of revenues and market capitalization based on data as of the end of calendar year 2021, being immediately prior to the commencement of the Corporation's fiscal 2023 period:

	Revenue (in millions)	Market Capitalization (in millions)
25^th Percentile	$ 337	$ 2,124
Median	$ 421	$ 3,297
75^th Percentile	$ 631	$ 5,904
Descartes	$ 406	$ 7,068
Percentile Rank	P48	P78

Historically, the comparator group used by the Compensation Committee had included a larger number of Canadian peers but, as the Corporation has grown in terms of revenue and market

capitalization, it has been increasingly difficult to find appropriate technology company peers of the Corporation that are based in Canada and, accordingly, over the past several years, the Compensation Committee has found that identifying an appropriate comparator group for the Corporation has resulted in a larger number of US-based and other international peers being added to the group. The Compensation Committee has determined that this is appropriate given a number of factors, including the dual-listing of the Corporation's shares in Canada and the US; the distribution of the Corporation's shares across shareholders in both Canada and the US; the nature of the Corporation's operations with a significant portion of its revenues coming from and operations being located in the US; the location of the most directly comparable industry peers to the Corporation; and the composition of both its Board of Directors and Management, being a mix of Canadian and US residents.

The Comparator Group used in developing the Corporation's director and officer compensation program for fiscal 2023 was as follows:

Canadian Peers

US Peers

Enghouse Systems Ltd.	Altair Engineering Inc.	Bottomline Technologies Inc.
Kinaxis Inc	Commvault Systems, Inc.	E2Open Parent Holdings, Inc.
	Ebix, Inc.	EverCommerce Inc.
	Guidewire Software, Inc.	Manhattan Associates Inc.
Australian Peer	Progress Software Corp	Qualys, Inc.
WiseTech Global Limited	SPS Commerce Inc.	Upland Software, Inc.
		.

Compensation for each of the CEO, President & COO, CFO and Chief Commercial Officer is designed to be competitive with the target total direct compensation for similar roles and/or seniority positioning in the Comparator Group and for the other NEOs, to be competitive to available market benchmarking data for the particular role and consistent with the internal pay practices for other executive officers of the Corporation who are not NEOs. Although we review each element of compensation for market competitiveness, and weigh each particular element based on the individual NEO's role within the Corporation, we are primarily focused on remaining competitive in the market with respect to total direct compensation.

In determining the overall compensation program of our CEO for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee, with assistance from its compensation consultant, compared the material elements of our CEO compensation program to those of the Comparator Group. The review included base salary, actual and target bonus, actual and target total cash, expected value of long-term incentives and actual and target total direct compensation. The purpose of this process was to:

•

Understand the competitiveness of current pay levels for the Chief Executive Officer position relative to the Comparator Group;

•

Identify and understand any significant differences that may exist between current compensation levels for the Corporation's CEO and market compensation levels; and

•

Serve as a basis for determining salary adjustments and short- and long-term incentive awards for Compensation Committee consideration.

At the beginning of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee also conducted an annual benchmarking compensation study with its compensation consultant for the positions of: (i) President and Chief Operating Officer; (ii) Chief Financial Officer; and (iii) EVP Global Sales (which was subsequently updated to include a study of Chief Commercial Officer roles because Mr. Roszko was promoted to that role in June 2022).

Based on the results of the compensation study, the Compensation Committee recommended certain increases to the overall compensation program for each of the NEOs to be

effective during fiscal 2023, which consisted of a combination of increases in base salary, on-target short-term incentives and on-target long-term incentives in each case as set out below.

Aligning the Interests of the NEOs with the Interests of Descartes' Shareholders and the Execution of our Business Strategy

We believe that transparent, objective and easily verified corporate goals, combined with individual performance goals, play an important role in creating and maintaining an effective compensation strategy for our NEOs. We use a combination of fixed and variable compensation to motivate our executives to achieve our corporate goals because we believe that achieving these goals contributes to increases in shareholder value.

For fiscal 2023, the three basic components of our executive officer compensation program were: (i) base salary and benefits; (ii) short-term incentives; and (iii) long-term incentives. In establishing the appropriate pay mix among these components, we consider what compensation is "at-risk" based on performance. The greater the NEO's ability to drive the business results, the higher the "at risk" portion of his or her compensation. We consider all compensation other than base salary and benefits to be "at risk".

In establishing the appropriate pay mix to align the interests of the NEO with the interests of the Corporation's shareholders and execution of our business strategy, we consider the following in respect of the three components of total compensation:

Base Salary and Benefits

Base salaries for our NEOs are reviewed annually. The base salary review for each NEO considers factors such as current competitive market conditions and particular skills, scope of the role, experience in the role, leadership ability and management effectiveness, internal equity, responsibility and proven or expected performance of the particular individual. The following chart outlines the base salaries that were in place for the NEOs during fiscal 2023 and shows the changes in base salary levels compared to fiscal 2022. The Compensation Committee, having regard to the findings of the compensation benchmarking study discussed above and considering the performance of the Corporation over the past several fiscal years, recommended an increase to the base salary of the CEO and approved the recommendation of the CEO for certain increases to the base salaries of the other NEOs effective during fiscal 2023 to more closely align those salaries and the overall compensation structure with the Compensation Committee's target of the 50^th percentile findings within the Peer Group compensation study.

Name	Fiscal 2022 Base Salary ($)	Fiscal 2023 Base Salary ($)	Percentage Change
Edward J. Ryan	$500,000	$550,000	10%
Allan Brett	$350,000	$400,000	14%
J. Scott Pagan	$350,000	$400,000	14%
Andrew Roszko	$300,000	$350,000	17%
Kenneth Wood	$250,000	$265,000	6%

We also provide various benefits to all of our employees, which include but are not limited to, medical and health insurance; dental insurance; life insurance; and tax-based retirement savings plan matching contributions. NEOs are also eligible to participate in an executive health care benefits program that is not otherwise available to all of our employees. Under this program, each NEO is eligible to be reimbursed for a limited value of additional health care expenses in excess of the dollar limitations available to all of our employees.

NEOs in Canada are eligible to participate in the Corporation's deferred profit-sharing plan ("DPSP") under which the Corporation will contribute to the NEO's DPSP account 50% of the NEO's contributions to the Corporation's group registered retirement savings plan, subject to a maximum contribution by the Corporation of 3% of the NEO's annual base salary. NEOs in the United States are eligible to participate in the Corporation's 401(k) plan under which the Corporation will contribute to the NEO's 401(k) account 3% of the NEO's base salary contributions to the 401(k) plan, subject to a maximum annual contribution by the Corporation of $2,000 per NEO. This is provided in lieu of a pension or retirement benefit.

ii.

Short-Term Incentives

For each NEO, the at-target and maximum eligibility for short-term incentives is established for each fiscal year. These levels are assessed in the context of the findings of the Peer Group compensation study and established to roughly align to a compensation structure at the 50^th percentile of such findings. The following table shows the percentage of salary payable for fiscal 2023 for on-target short-term incentives ("On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility"):

Name	Base Salary ($)	On-Target STI Eligibility (% of Base Salary)	On-Target STI Eligibility ($)	Maximum STI Eligibility (% of Base Salary)	Maximum STI Eligibility ($)	Actual STI Awarded in Fiscal 2023
Edward J. Ryan	$550,000	100%	$550,000	150%	$825,000	$550,000
Allan Brett	$400,000	100%	$400,000	150%	$600,000	$400,000
J. Scott Pagan	$400,000	100%	$400,000	150%	$600,000	$400,000
Andrew Roszko	$350,000	100%	$350,000	150%	$525,000	$350,000
Kenneth Wood	$265,000	30%	$79,500	45%	$119,250	$79,500

For the NEOs, where short-term incentives have been awarded, the amount has historically been paid, at the option of the NEO, in cash and/or in cash settled restricted share units ("CRSUs") vesting and paid over a period of no more than three years from the grant.

The amount of the short-term incentive actually payable to each NEO is based on meeting pre-established, Board-approved, Corporation-wide quantitative and qualitative corporate objectives related to creating shareholder value and executing business strategy on budget. For fiscal 2023, the quantitative objectives measured and monitored by the Compensation Committee in assessing performance (the "Quantitative Measures") were:

•

Adjusted EBITDA;

•

Revenue; and

•

Cash generated from operations as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA.

The Compensation Committee considered these Quantitative Measures to be the most appropriate to ensure the Corporation remained focused on its path of consistent, profitable growth.

Adjusted EBITDA Criteria

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, was the exclusive measure of corporate performance for purposes of determining eligibility for short-term incentive awards for fiscal 2023. To achieve On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility, the Compensation Committee requires that the Corporation has achieved its annual target for Adjusted EBITDA, which for fiscal 2023 was as set out in the table below. To the extent the

Corporation over-achieves the annual target, the Compensation Committee may award Short-Term Incentives up to the Maximum STI Eligibility set out above. The Compensation Committee will not award short-term incentives unless the annual target for Adjusted EBITDA has been achieved.

FY23 Adjusted EBITDA^*Target (in millions of USD)	FY23 Adjusted EBITDA^*Target Growth (as a % increase from FY22 Actual)	FY23 Adjusted EBITDA Actual (in millions of USD)	FY23 Adjusted EBITDA^*Actual Growth (as a % increase from FY22 Actual)
$204.3	10%	$215.2	16%

* A non-GAAP ratio. A description and definition of Adjusted EBITDA used by the Corporation, as well as a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income for fiscal 2023, is included in Schedule "C" to this Circular.

In considering whether the Adjusted EBITDA target has been achieved, the Compensation Committee considers any impact on the target based on fluctuations in foreign currency exchange compared to the foreign currency exchange rates used at the time of setting the targets. If the Adjusted EBITDA target has been achieved, the Compensation Committee then considers whether there are reasons that an amount other than the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility should be awarded. For fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee concluded that the On-Target amount was appropriate and should neither be adjusted upwards nor downwards.

Recognizing that any short-term incentive amount awarded would reduce Adjusted EBITDA, if the Adjusted EBITDA target would not otherwise be achieved if the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility were awarded, then the Compensation Committee would intend to reduce the short-term incentive compensation that may be awarded to the NEOs on a pro-rata basis to the extent such reduction would then result in the Corporation achieving its Adjusted EBITDA target.

Other Quantitative Measures

The Committee retains discretion to reduce the short-term incentive awards even when the annual target for Adjusted EBITDA is achieved if the Corporation has not achieved its objectives for the other Quantitative Measures (revenue and cash generated from operations as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA) or has otherwise failed to perform against the Other Factors monitored by the Compensation Committee, as discussed below. For fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee concluded that there were no concerns in terms of the Corporation's performance against the Other Factors that would warrant a downward adjustment to the short-term incentive awards.

Revenue

The following table details the Corporation's fiscal 2023 target and actual results for revenue in fiscal 2023.

FY23 Revenue Target (in millions of USD)	FY23 Revenue Target Growth (as a % increase from FY22 Actual)	FY23 Revenue Actual (in millions of USD)	FY22 Revenue Actual Growth (as a % increase from FY22 Actual)
$467.0	10%	$486.0	14%

The Committee noted that revenue growth in fiscal 2023 was negatively impacted on a comparative year over year basis by changes in foreign exchange rates and that actual revenue growth from FY22 to FY23 would have been $14 million higher if calculated using the same foreign exchange rates in effect at the end of fiscal 2022.

Cash Flow from Operations as a Percentage of Adjusted EBITDA

For fiscal 2023, the target for cash flow from operations was set at a target range of 80-85% of Adjusted EBITDA.

Actual Cash Flow from Operations (in millions of USD)	Target Cash Flow from Operations (% of Adjusted EBITDA)	Actual Cash Flow From Operations (% of Adjusted EBITDA)*
$192.4	80-90%	89%

* A non-GAAP ratio. A description and definition of Adjusted EBITDA used by the Corporation, as well as a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income for fiscal 2022, is included in Schedule "C" to this Circular.

The Compensation Committee noted that the Corporation's cash from operations was adversely impacted in fiscal 2023 by approximately $5.3 million due to the payment of additional purchase price on acquisitions completed in prior periods which, if excluded, would have had the Corporation's cash from operations as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA being above the 90% target.

Other Factors

In determining whether an amount less than the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility should be awarded when the annual minimum target for Adjusted EBITDA has otherwise been achieved, the Compensation Committee will consider the following "Other Factors": (i) the performance of the Corporation relative to the above mentioned Quantitative Measures other than Adjusted EBITDA; (ii) the progress of the Corporation's corporate development activities; (iii) the performance of the Corporation against various return metrics on invested capital that are monitored on a quarterly basis; (iv) the Corporation's performance in comparison to its annual budget; (v) the performance of the Corporation's Common Shares in the public market over the year; and (vi) the progress of the Corporation towards the achievement of its ESG Initiatives. In addition, the Compensation Committee considers the individual performance of each NEO which, in the case of the CEO, is evaluated by the Compensation Committee and, in the case of the other NEOs, is evaluated by the Compensation Committee based on the recommendation of the CEO, as further discussed below under "Evaluating Individual Executive Performance".

In determining whether an amount more than the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility should be awarded, up to the Maximum Short-Term Incentive Eligibility, the Compensation Committee considers whether there has been significant over-performance by the Corporation against its Adjusted EBITDA target, provided that any additional amount awarded above the On-Target Short-Term Incentive must continue to result in the Corporation achieving, or exceeding, its Adjusted EBITDA target. The Compensation Committee establishes "high-end" targets for both Adjusted EBITDA and Revenue which are used in assessing over-performance and considering if the Maximum Short-Term Incentive Eligibility should be awarded. For fiscal 2023, these "high-end" targets were based on 15% growth in Adjusted EBITDA and 14% growth in Revenue. Prior to making any award above the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility, the Compensation Committee will also consider the Other Factors discussed above.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award to the NEOs. Considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee determined to award each NEO a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 at the On-Target Short-Term Incentive Eligibility amount for fiscal 2023, to be satisfied in cash.

iii.

Long-Term Incentives

The fiscal 2023 compensation program for our NEOs, included long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity-based awards consisting of a mix of:

•

PSU grants which vest at the end of a three-year performance period (weighted 50%);

•

RSU grants which vest over a period of three fiscal years (weighted 25% or 35% depending on role); and

•

stock options that vest over a period of three fiscal years (weighed 15% or 25% depending on role).

The PSUs are subject to performance conditions and vest on an interpolation basis from 0% to 200% based on the total shareholder return performance of the Corporation relative to the Comparator Group over a three-year period in accordance with the following criteria:

RELATIVE PERFORMANCE	ADJUSTMENT FACTOR
Less than the 30^th percentile	0
30^th percentile	.50
50^th percentile	1.00
75^th percentile	1.50
90^th percentile	2.00

The following table shows the on-target long-term incentive compensation established for fiscal 2023 ("On-Target Long-Term Incentive Eligibility"):

Name	On-Target Total LTI	Value of PSUs at time of grant (and percentage of total LTI)	Value of RSUs at time of grant (and percentage of total LTI)	Value of stock options at the time of grant (and percentage of total LTI)
Edward J. Ryan	$5,400,000	$2,700,000 (50%)	$1,890,000 (35%)	$810,000 (15%)
Allan Brett	$1,907,250	$953,625 (50%)	$667,538 (35%)	$286,088 (15%)
J. Scott Pagan	$2,430,500	$1,215,250 (50%)	$850,675 (35%)	$364,575 (15%)
Andrew Roszko	$1,300,000	$650,000 (50%)	$325,000 (25%)	$325,000 (25%)
Kenneth Wood	$555,500	$277,500 (50%)	$138,750 (25%)	$138,750 (25%)

The Board and Compensation Committee review and approve all grants of PSUs, RSUs and stock options. In making these determinations, the Board and Compensation Committee consider the recommendations of the CEO (except for grants to the CEO). The Board and Compensation Committee also consider previous grants of stock options and Share Units that have been made to an individual in deciding whether to make new grants of stock options and Share Units.

When deciding whether to grant stock options, our Board, subject to the recommendation of our Compensation Committee, makes the following determinations:

•

Which NEOs and others are eligible for a grant of options;

•

The number of options to be granted under the plan in general and to each recipient;

•

The exercise price for each stock option granted (which may not be less than fair market value of a Common Share at the date of the grant);

•

The date on which each option is granted (which may not be earlier than the date the grant is approved by the Board);

•

The vesting period;

•

The expiration date; and

•

Other material terms and conditions of each stock option grant.

As the long-term incentives granted to our NEOs are Common Share-based, and the price of our Common Shares has increased over each of the past five fiscal years, the value to be realized by each NEO from such incentives has increased over this same period.

Evaluating Individual Executive Performance

We believe that regular and comprehensive evaluation of our NEOs contributes to effective compensation programs and the achievement of the Corporation's business goals. Our Board, Compensation Committee and CEO have instituted a set of procedures to evaluate the performance of each of our NEOs to help determine the amount of base salary and short- and long-term incentives to award to each NEO.

CEO - The Board and Compensation Committee assess the performance of the CEO on an ongoing basis, with a formal review conducted annually. The formal review includes interviews with the CEO and comments solicited from members of the Board, Management and the Corporation's major shareholders. The Compensation Committee, if appropriate, approves adjustments to the CEO's compensation under authority delegated to it by the Board. However, decisions about share-based compensation are ultimately determined by the Board on receiving the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee communicates its assessment and any compensation decisions directly to the CEO.

NEOs other than the CEO - The performance of each NEO other than the CEO is evaluated by the CEO and assessed by the Compensation Committee on the basis of the CEO's evaluation. Recommendations for adjustments to compensation for these NEOs are made by the CEO to our Compensation Committee for consideration. The Compensation Committee follows its review and assessment process described in this Circular and, if appropriate, approves compensation adjustments for the NEOs under authority delegated to it by the Board. However, decisions about share-based compensation are ultimately determined by the Board on receiving the recommendation of the Compensation Committee.

In evaluating NEO performance for a fiscal year, the Compensation Committee and Board consider several factors including the following:

Contribution to the achievement of the Corporation's longer-term financial and corporate development plan;

Contribution to the achievement of annual corporate financial targets;

Contribution to the achievement of the Corporation's corporate development goals in acquiring businesses and integrating acquired businesses;

Contribution to advancing the Corporation's ESG Initiatives;

Customer service, satisfaction and retention;

Infrastructure development;

Investor communication;

Organizational development;

Succession planning and initiatives;

Strategic planning; and

Other corporate and individual qualitative factors.

Evaluating Overall Corporate Performance

Longer-term Financial and Corporate Development Plan

The Corporation's long-term financial plan is focused on consistent, sustainable growth in Adjusted EBITDA, accomplished through a combination of the performance of existing operations and acquiring and integrating new operations. The Corporation typically targets ongoing growth in Adjusted EBITDA of 10-15% per year.

The Corporation's Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2023 grew by 16% over fiscal 2022, which was above the high end of the Corporation's ongoing financial plan despite a challenging global economy in fiscal 2023 and an unfavourable foreign exchange rate climate.

The Corporation also acquired four businesses in fiscal 2023 (NetCHB, Foxtrot, XPS Technologies and Supply Vision) consistent with its corporate development goals.

Annual Corporate Financial Targets

The Corporation's annual corporate financial targets are considered and established in two levels for each of annual revenues and annual Adjusted EBITDA: (i) a minimum level; and (ii) a high-end target level.

This budget and the financial targets are established with various assumptions, including foreign exchange rate assumptions relating to foreign operations.

The Corporation exceeded its established target for Adjusted EBITDA and revenues in fiscal 2023. The Corporation targeted growing its Adjusted EBITDA 10-15%, and it actually grew 16% from fiscal 2022. The Corporation targeted growing its revenues by 10-14%, and they actually grew 14% from fiscal 2022 despite a significant adverse impact from foreign exchange rates on a comparative year over year basis.

The following table details the Corporation's fiscal 2023 minimum and high-end target plans for both revenues and Adjusted EBITDA and the Corporation's actual reported revenues and approximate unaudited Adjusted EBITDA results in the period. The targets have not been adjusted for movements in foreign exchange rates from the beginning of the fiscal year to the end of the fiscal year.

Revenue Minimum Target (millions)	Revenue High-End Target (millions)	Revenue Actual (millions)	Adjusted EBITDA Minimum Target (millions)	Adjusted EBITDA High-End Target (millions)	Adjusted EBITDA Actual (millions)
$467.0	$484.0	$486.0	$204.3	$213.6	$215.2

Overall, the Corporation's revenues and Adjusted EBITDA grew 14% and 16%, respectively, from fiscal 2022.

In addition, the Compensation Committee noted the Corporation's strong cash generated from operations in fiscal 2023 in evaluating the Corporation's and executive officer's performance. The Corporation has targeted cash from operations of between 80% and 90% of Adjusted EBITDA in a fiscal period. In fiscal 2023, the Corporation generated $192.4 million in cash from operations, representing 89% of Adjusted EBITDA for the year.

On an ongoing basis, the Compensation Committee and Board also monitored the Corporation's return on invested capital, both on individual acquisitions and in the aggregate, using various return metrics. The Compensation Committee noted that the metrics were in-line with the aggregate returns anticipated to be generated by the Corporation's acquisition portfolio.

Common Share Price

The Compensation Committee also considers any change in the trading price of the Corporation's Common Shares during the fiscal year in evaluating awards of short-term compensation. Over fiscal 2023, the price of the Corporation's Common Shares increased as follows:

Market	January 31, 2022 (closing price)	January 31, 2023 (closing price)	% Increase
TSX	Cdn. $92.48	Cdn. $97.10	5.0%
NASDAQ	$72.77	$73.02	0.3%

In considering the performance of the Corporation's Common Share price, the Compensation Committee noted the impact of market challenges on the stock prices of many comparable technology companies during the 2022 calendar year and the decline in valuation multiples observed in the shares of many publicly traded technology companies and considered the Corporation's relative common share price performance in that context.

Performance Graph

The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return on the Common Shares of the Corporation to the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Composite Index, the NASDAQ Composite Index and the "Software & Services" industry subgroup of the S&P/TSX Composite Index for the Corporation's last five years commencing February 1, 2018.

1. CEO Compensation set out in the table above is based on total compensation from the Summary Compensation Table.

As reflected in the graph above, over that five-year period, the performance of the Corporation's Common Shares has exceeded that of the S&P/TSX Composite Index and the NASDAQ Composite Index but had performed slightly below the S&P/TSX Composite Index "Software & Services" industry subgroup index for four of those five years, until this past year. During this five-year period, the price of the Corporation's Common Shares on the TSX has shown an increase of 279%. During that same period, the aggregate total compensation awarded to the Chief Executive Officer (as calculated as set out in the Summary Compensation Table below) has shown an increase of 264%. As the Corporation's revenues and share price have increased over the past five years, with a

corresponding increase in the Corporation's market capitalization, the composition of the Corporation's compensation peer group has similarly changed over that period to include larger companies in terms of revenue and market capitalization. This, in turn, has led to an increase in the median compensation levels observed within the compensation peer group over that period and a resulting increase in the overall total compensation awarded to the Chief Executive Officer to maintain competitiveness with the trends in median compensation levels within the selected peer group. As reflected in the graph above, increases in the CEO compensation over this period have closely aligned to the appreciation in the Corporation's Common Shares over that same period.

Shareholder Engagement

The Board has a formal shareholder engagement policy that encourages regular and constructive engagement directly with shareholders by both Management and the Board. Members of the Board actively contact a target list of the largest shareholders of the Corporation on at least a bi-annual basis to solicit feedback from those shareholders on the performance of the CEO; performance of the Board; performance of the Corporation generally; and overall governance and compensation matters. These meetings are generally held with the Chair of the Board and the Chair of either the Compensation Committee, the Corporate Governance Committee or the Audit Committee. This policy of engagement has also included regular meetings with the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance to review governance and compensation matters relative to the Corporation and responding to other governance related inquiries from other investment industry focused governance bodies from time to time. In addition to engagement with shareholders by the Board, Management also regularly engages with shareholders of the Corporation and attempts to meet with, or offer meetings to, each of the Corporation's largest shareholders on at least an annual basis.

As discussed above, during fiscal 2023, the Board conducted a pro-active outreach program with many of the Corporation's largest shareholders inviting discussion on the corporation's governance and compensation practices. Many of the contacted shareholders agreed to participate in the process and provided feedback directly to the Board members who led the process.

Management has also continued its outreach program with the Corporation's largest shareholders, offering one-on-one meetings following the release of each quarter's financial results. Feedback from these meetings is discussed on a quarterly basis with the Board.

The Corporation has adopted an annual "say on pay" resolution at its annual shareholder meeting to give shareholders the opportunity to vote on the executive compensation arrangements of the Corporation. At the most recent shareholder meeting of June 16th, 2022, the "say on pay" resolution received a vote of 94.69% in favour. This significant level of support from shareholders, combined with the direct feedback received from shareholders through the engagement process discussed above, has given the Compensation Committee increased confidence that its overall approach to compensation structure is well received by shareholders.

Compensation Oversight Process

The Compensation Committee has responsibility for overseeing executive compensation and director compensation and makes compensation recommendations to the Board for final approval. The Compensation Committee met five times during fiscal 2023 and, as of the date of this Circular, had met twice more during fiscal 2024. Management assists the Chair of the Compensation Committee in the coordination and preparation of the meeting agenda and materials for meetings as requested by the

Chair. Following the approval of the Chair of the Compensation Committee, meeting materials are delivered for review to the other Compensation Committee members and invitees, if any, typically in advance of each meeting.

Use of Compensation Consultants

The Compensation Committee seeks the advice of outside, independent compensation consultants to provide assistance and guidance on compensation issues. Consultants are screened and chosen by the Compensation Committee and report to the Compensation Committee. The consultants provide the Compensation Committee with relevant information pertaining to market compensation levels, alternative compensation plan designs, market trends and best practices. The consultants assist the Compensation Committee with respect to determining the appropriate compensation benchmarks for the Chief Executive Officer and each of the other executive officers of the Corporation (which includes the NEOs).

Commencing from the latter half of fiscal 2018, the Compensation Committee has engaged the services of Mercer (Canada) Limited ("Mercer") to act as compensation consultant to the committee. Mercer has confirmed to the Compensation Committee that it will not accept any engagement from the Corporation or any members of Management of the Corporation except with the prior written approval of the Compensation Committee. During the same period, the Corporation's human resources department has subscribed to a global compensation and benefits database service operated by Mercer. This database subscription service is unrelated to the compensation consulting services provided by Mercer to the Compensation Committee and identified as "Other Fees" in the summary of fees set out below.

During fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 Mercer provided services to the Compensation Committee in the following: (i) assisting the Compensation Committee in considering the comparator group used to assess the Corporation's director and executive officer compensation arrangements; (ii) conducting a compensation-related risk review; (iii) conducting a competitive benchmarking analysis of the Corporation's director and CEO compensation arrangements; and (iv) recommending the overall short-term and long-term incentive mix for CEO compensation.

Mercer's fees incurred in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 regarding services provided were as follows⁽¹⁾:

Fiscal year ended	Executive Compensation-Related Fees	All Other Fees⁽²⁾
January 31, 2023	$59,515	$53,000
January 31, 2022	$77,285	$53,000

(1)

Amounts included in this table have been converted to US dollars at the indicative foreign exchange rate on the last business day of the applicable year as reported by the Bank of Canada, which was 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars at January 31, 2023 and 1 US dollar = 1.2719 Canadian dollars at January 31, 2022.

(2)

The Other Fees consist of an annual subscription to global compensation and benefits survey data published by Mercer and subscribed to by the Corporation's Human Resources department independent of the relationship with Mercer as a compensation consultant to the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee's written charter provides that, with respect to any external compensation consultant or advisor retained by the Compensation Committee or the Board for determining executive or director compensation, the Compensation Committee must pre-approve any other services that Management has requested be provided to the Corporation or Management by such external compensation consultant or advisor or its affiliates.

Role of Executive Officers in the Compensation Process

The Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board: (i) with respect to the CEO's compensation following an annual review of the performance of the CEO, an annual review of compensation benchmarking data provided by its compensation consultant and following discussion with the CEO; and (ii) with respect to all other executive officers of the Corporation, including the NEOs, the Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board following an annual review of the overall performance of the Corporation, consideration of any compensation benchmarking data that may have been requested by the Committee from its compensation consultant and based on the Compensation Committee's consideration of the recommendations of the CEO. At a meeting of the Compensation Committee at which Management, including the CEO, is not present, the Compensation Committee determines the compensation of the CEO and of the executive officers of the Corporation, including the NEOs, that will be recommended by the Committee to the Board. The Compensation Committee then makes its recommendations to the Board, which approves the compensation of the CEO and of the executive officers of the Corporation, including the NEOs.

Compensation-related Risk Mitigation

The Board provides regular oversight of the Corporation's risk management practices, and delegates to the Compensation Committee the responsibility to provide risk oversight of the Corporation's compensation policies and practices, and to identify and mitigate compensation policies and practices that could encourage members of Management to take inappropriate or excessive risks.

In respect of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee retained Mercer to assist it in reviewing the risks associated with the Corporation's executive compensation policies and practices. The Compensation Committee reviewed Mercer's risk report and presented it to the Board in March 2023. The Compensation Committee and Board concluded that there were no identified risks arising from the Corporation's compensation policies or practices that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

The Compensation Committee and Board have concluded that the Corporation has policies and practices to ensure that Management does not have incentives to take inappropriate or excessive risks including the following:

•

An appropriate balance of fixed and variable compensation, and an appropriate weighting of share-based compensation and short- and long-term compensation;

•

An appropriate equity ownership policy for Management;

•

•

Compensation Committee members, Deborah Close, Dennis Maple, Chris Muntwyler and Jane O'Hagan, who are also members of either the Corporate Governance Committee or the Nominating Committee, which ensures that compensation governance and compensation related risk are considered from a broader corporate governance perspective.

Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy

In April 2015, the Board adopted an Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy (the "Clawback Policy"). The Clawback Policy authorizes the independent directors of the Corporation (the "IndependentCommittee") to recover short- and long-term incentive compensation of an executive officer, including any gains realized upon exercise or settlement of any share-based awards, in the following circumstances:

the Corporation is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under applicable securities laws (the "Restatement");

the executive officer engaged in gross negligence, intentional misconduct or fraud that either caused or significantly contributed to the non-compliance resulting in the Restatement; and

the executive officer was over-compensated as a result of the Restatement.

If the Independent Committee concludes that such circumstances exist, it may in its sole discretion, to the extent that it considers such action to be in the best interests of the Corporation, direct the Corporation to take any combination of the following actions as it considers necessary or advisable for the Corporation to recover the amount of the excess incentive compensation and all costs incurred in recovering the incentive compensation: (a) require the executive officer to reimburse the Corporation; (b) withhold any amounts owing or that may become owing, or cancel any share-based awards outstanding (whether vested or unvested) or due to be granted or awarded, to the executive officer; and (c) such other action as the Independent Committee considers appropriate.

Management Equity Ownership Policy

The Corporation has an equity ownership policy applicable to Management (the "Management Equity Ownership Policy").

The objective of the Management Equity Ownership Policy is to ensure that the CEO and other senior executives acquire and hold a meaningful equity ownership interest in the Corporation within a reasonable period following the individual's appointment to the office. Under the policy, within five years of becoming subject to the policy, the NEOs are required to attain and maintain the following equity ownership levels:

Position	Equity Ownership Level as a Multiple of Annual Base Salary
CEO	6X
President & COO	4X
Chief Financial Officer	4X
Other NEOs	1X

For purposes of the Management Equity Ownership Policy, "Market Value" for determining compliance means the volume-weighted average trading price of a Common Share on the TSX for the five trading days preceding the measurement date. In April 2023, the Board, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, amended certain provisions of the Management Equity Ownership Policy related to the mechanics of calculating the value of various equity instruments under the Policy. As a result of these amendments, as of the date of this Circular, in determining compliance with the Management Equity Ownership Policy:

•

Common Shares are included and valued at Market Value;

•

CRSUs and vested RSUs are included and valued at Market Value at the date of measurement. Any RSUs that are not yet vested are not included in this calculation;

•

Vested PSUs are included and valued at Market Value at the date of measurement. Any PSUs that are subject to a vesting condition or future performance condition are not included in this calculation until fully vested or earned; and

•

Options are given no value under the terms of the policy.

During a period when an NEO has not met the applicable equity ownership levels, the NEO must retain 25% of the Common Shares received on the exercise of a stock option or the redemption of an RSU or PSU and, to the extent made available to the NEO, elect to convert to CRSUs 25% of any cash proceeds otherwise receivable by the NEO pursuant to the Corporation's annual short-term incentive compensation plans.

The following table identifies the equity ownership levels of each of the NEOs as at May 5, 2023 with reference to the minimum equity ownership levels required by the Management Equity Ownership Policy. Market Values included in the table are calculated by multiplying the number of securities by the volume-weighted average trading price of a Common Share on the TSX for the five trading days preceding May 5, 2023, being Cdn. $104.86, converted to US dollars at the rate of 1 US dollar = 1.3566 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on May (4), 2023. The table identifies the Market Value of Common Share-based holdings included for the purposes of calculation pursuant to the Management Equity Ownership Policy (which does not include any value for stock options, whether vested or unvested). Minimum equity ownership levels are determined by multiplying the level set out in the Management Equity Ownership Policy for the applicable position by the individual's current annual base salary converted to US dollars at the rate of 1 US dollar = 1.3566 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on May (4), 2023:

Name	Multiple of Base Salary	Minimum Equity Ownership Level Required ($)	Market Value of Common Shares Held ($)	Market Value of vested Share Units Held (vested RSUs and vested PSUs) ($)	Market Value of cash-settled Share Units Held (cRSUs) ($)	Value of Holdings per Equity Ownership Policies ($)	Minimum Equity Ownership Level Achieved?
Edward J. Ryan	6X	3,300,000	-	41,130,457	-	41,130,457	Yes
Allan Brett	4X	1,600,000	2,705,366	15,019,267	-	17,724,633	Yes
J. Scott Pagan	4X	1,600,000	15,104,370	25,182,632	-	40,287,002	Yes
Andrew Roszko	1X	350,000	270,537	997,585	7,034	1,275,156	Yes

Total Value of Equity Holdings of NEOs

The following table shows the total value of all equity holdings of each of the NEOs as at May 5, 2023, determined in accordance with the Market Value determination set out above plus the "in the money value" of unexercised but vested options, which are otherwise not included in the calculation under the Corporation's Equity Ownership Policies.

Name	Market Value of Common Shares Held ($)	Market Value of vested RSUs ($)	Market Value of vested PSUs ($)	Market Value of cash-settled Share Units Held (cRSUs) ($)	Value of unexercised in-the-money options¹	Total
Edward J. Ryan	-	13,614,176	27,516,281	-	4,782,322	45,912,779
Allan Brett	2,705,366	4,940,927	10,078,340	-	2,572,437	20,297,070
J. Scott Pagan	15,104,370	8,225,473	16,957,159	-	3,698,929	43,985,931

Kenneth Wood	431,622	203,289	249,589	11,904	1,133,888	2,030,292

(1) The value of unexercised in-the-money options has been calculated using the difference between the closing price of the Corporation's Common Shares on the TSX on May 4, 2023 (Cdn.$99.86) and the Canadian dollar option exercise price. The value has been reported in US dollars using an exchange rate of 1 US dollar = 1.3566 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on May 4, 2023.

Hedging and Pledging Restrictions

The Corporation's compensation program is designed to align a significant portion of NEO compensation to longer-term shareholder interests. Under the terms of the Corporation's Insider Trading Policy, all employees and Directors, including the NEOs, are prohibited from purchasing financial instruments, including, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds that directly hedge or offset a decrease in market value of securities or Common Share-based compensation held, directly or indirectly, by the individual. In addition, any Director or NEO who seeks to specifically pledge securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Director or NEO must first consult with the Corporation's insider trading policy administrator to determine whether the proposed pledge would reasonably be expected to cause the Director or NEO to no longer have a meaningful aggregate equity ownership interest in the Corporation.

Fiscal 2023 Compensation Structures of the NEOs

CEO - Edward J. Ryan

Mr. Ryan was appointed Chief Executive Officer on November 26, 2013 and had served in senior executive roles at the Corporation for more than 10 years prior to this appointment.

On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee reviews Mr. Ryan's compensation as the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation. As part of this review the Compensation Committee considers

the total target direct compensation of the chief executive officer role in the Comparator Group and the mix of the overall compensation components, including the allocation among base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives, as well as the split between guaranteed components and "at-risk" components. The Compensation Committee also considers the level of equity ownership that it wants Mr. Ryan to accumulate over the long-term incentive period.

For fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered various factors in determining that Mr. Ryan's total target direct compensation should be positioned at the median of the Comparator Group, including the following factors:

•

Mr. Ryan has significant tenure with the Corporation in a senior executive role;

•

During Mr. Ryan's tenure in a senior executive role, and since his appointment to the role of Chief Executive Officer, the Corporation has achieved superior financial performance and executed on its long-term and corporate development strategy;

•

During the past years of Mr. Ryan's tenure, the performance of the Common Shares exceeded that of the S&P/TSX Composite Index and the NASDAQ Composite Index and tracked slightly under the S&P/TSX Composite Index "Software &Services" industry subgroup index;

•

Mr. Ryan developed a strong relationship with many of the significant shareholders of the Corporation, and the Board of Directors receives positive feedback regarding Mr. Ryan and his performance through its shareholder engagement process; and

•

Mr. Ryan played an integral role in the steady increase in the Corporation's revenues and the completion of various acquisitions and financing transactions over the past fiscal year.

The following chart illustrates the pay mix for, and components of, Mr. Ryan's overall compensation structure as was set for fiscal 2023, assuming on-target performance:

In determining the appropriate compensation levels and pay mix for Mr. Ryan for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee continued to weight total compensation more heavily towards "at-risk" and long-term incentives, consistent with the Corporation's past practice, market practice and the Comparator Group. Following a review of the compensation benchmarking study for the CEO position conducted by the Compensation Committee's compensation consultant and in consideration of the performance achieved by the Corporation through fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined that an increase in Mr. Ryan's aggregate compensation was appropriate for fiscal 2023.

Accordingly, Mr. Ryan's base salary was set at $550,000 (an increase of 10% from $500,000 in fiscal 2022), his eligibility for on-target short-term incentives was set at 100% of base salary, with a maximum of 150% of base salary (the same percentages as in fiscal 2022), and his total on-target long-term incentive eligibility was set at $5,400,000 for fiscal 2023 (an increase from $4,000,000 in fiscal 2022). This increase in both base salary and in long-term incentive eligibility was identified by the Compensation Committee as necessary to continue to maintain target total compensation roughly in line with the median compensation level identified in the Peer Group compensation study for fiscal 2023. The long-term incentive component continued to be awarded 50% in the form of PSUs, 35% in the form of RSUs and 15% in the form of stock options.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award Mr. Ryan in respect of fiscal 2023. As previously discussed above, considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023 and its performance against its Adjusted EBITDA targets, as well as the performance of the Corporation in a number of other areas (as discussed above under the headings "Longer-term Financial and Corporate Development Plan", "Annual Corporate Financial Targets" and "Common Share Price") and Mr. Ryan's contribution to such performance, Mr. Ryan was awarded a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 in the amount of $550,000, being his on-target short-term incentive eligibility at 100% of his on-target short-term incentive for fiscal 2023, to be paid in cash.

Chief Financial Officer - Allan Brett

Mr. Brett joined the Corporation as Chief Financial Officer on May 29, 2014. Mr. Brett previously served as Chief Financial Officer of Aastra Technologies Limited from 1996 through to its sale to Mitel Networks Corporation in 2014.

The Compensation Committee received certain recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the setting of Mr. Brett's compensation package for fiscal 2023. In considering these recommendations, the Compensation Committee considered compensation benchmarking data prepared by the Corporation's compensation consultant in past fiscal periods assessing the compensation arrangements of the chief financial officer position within the Comparator Group.

The Compensation Committee considered various factors in determining that Mr. Brett's total target direct compensation should be positioned at a level that approaches the median for the chief financial officer position in the Comparator Group, including the following factors:

•

Mr. Brett has significant experience in the role of a Chief Financial Officer to a publicly traded company with international operations;

•

Mr. Brett has demonstrated his abilities and knowledge in several areas that have added value to the Corporation since his appointment, including in the areas of capital market transactions, merger and acquisition integration, taxation, business planning and overall financial management and financial reporting; and

•

Mr. Brett has played a key role in capital market transactions, including putting in place a restated credit facility that assists the Corporation in executing against its business plan and executing on a public offering of Commons Shares of the Corporation.

The following chart illustrates the pay mix for, and components of, Mr. Brett's overall compensation structure as was set for fiscal 2023, assuming on-target performance:

In determining the appropriate compensation levels and pay mix for Mr. Brett for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that the total compensation should be more heavily weighted towards "at-risk" and long-term incentives, consistent with the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. Considering the performance of the Corporation in fiscal 2022 and based on the recommendation of the CEO which was then approved by the Compensation Committee, the compensation arrangements for Mr. Brett for fiscal 2023 included base salary in the amount of $400,000 (a 14% increase from $350,000 in fiscal 2022), on-target eligibility for short-term incentives set at $400,000, being 100% of base salary, with a maximum eligibility of 150% of base salary and eligibility for long-term incentives set at $1,907,250 for fiscal 2023 (an increase from $1,487,500 in fiscal 2022). This increase in both base salary and in long-term incentive eligibility was identified by the Compensation Committee as necessary to continue to maintain target total compensation roughly in line with the median compensation level identified in the Peer Group compensation study for fiscal 2023. Consistent with the arrangements with the CEO and the President and COO, and consistent with past practice, it was determined that the long-term incentives for Mr. Brett continue to be granted 50% in the form of PSUs, 35% in the form of RSUs and 15% in the form of stock options.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award Mr. Brett in respect of fiscal 2023. As previously discussed above, considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023 and its over-performance against its Adjusted EBITDA targets, as well as the performance of the Corporation in a number of other areas (as discussed above under the headings "Longer-term Financial and Corporate Development Plan", "Annual Corporate Financial Targets" and "Common Share Price") and Mr. Brett's contribution to such performance, Mr. Brett was awarded a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 in the amount of $400,00, being his on-target short-term incentive eligibility at 100% of his on-target short-term incentive for fiscal 2023, to be paid in cash.

President & COO - J. Scott Pagan

Mr. Pagan was appointed President and COO on November 26, 2013 and had served in a senior executive role in the Corporation for more than 10 years prior to this appointment.

The Compensation Committee received certain recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the setting of Mr. Pagan's compensation package for fiscal 2023. In considering these recommendations, the Compensation Committee reviewed a benchmarking report prepared by

the Corporation's compensation consultant assessing the compensation arrangements of the second-highest paid officer position within the Comparator Group. The Compensation Committee considered various factors in determining that Mr. Pagan's total target direct compensation should be positioned within a competitive range of the median of the Comparator Group for the second-highest paid officer, including the following factors:

•

The scope of Mr. Pagan's role is broader than comparable roles at peer companies;

•

Mr. Pagan had served in a senior executive role for more than 10 years;

•

During such time, the Corporation has achieved superior financial performance and executed on its long-term and corporate development strategy;

•

During the past five years of Mr. Pagan's tenure, the performance of the Common Shares exceeded that of the S&P/TSX Composite Index and the NASDAQ Composite Index and tracked slightly under the S&P/TSX Composite Index "Software &Services" industry subgroup index; and

•

Mr. Pagan played an integral role in the steady improvement in the Corporation's operating performance and the completion of various acquisitions and financing transactions.

The following chart illustrates the pay mix for, and components of, Mr. Pagan's overall compensation structure as was set for fiscal 2023, assuming on-target performance:

In determining the appropriate compensation levels and pay mix for Mr. Pagan for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that the total compensation should be more heavily weighted towards "at-risk" and long-term incentives, consistent with the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. Considering the performance of the Corporation in fiscal 2022 and based on the recommendation of the CEO which was then approved by the Compensation Committee, the compensation arrangements for Mr. Pagan for fiscal 2023 included base salary in the amount of $400,000 (a 14% increase from $350,000 in fiscal 2022), on-target eligibility for short-term incentives set at $400,000, being 100% of base salary, with a maximum eligibility of 150% of base salary and eligibility for long-term incentives set at $2,430,500 for fiscal 2023 (an increase from $1,837,500 in fiscal 2022). This increase in both base salary and in long-term incentive eligibility was identified by the Compensation Committee as necessary to continue to maintain target total compensation roughly in line with the median compensation level identified in the Peer Group compensation study for fiscal 2023. Consistent with the arrangements with the CEO and the CFO, and consistent with past practice, it was

determined that the long-term incentives for Mr. Pagan continue to be granted 50% in the form of PSUs, 35% in the form of RSUs and 15% in the form of stock options.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award Mr. Pagan in respect of fiscal 2023. As previously discussed above, considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023 and its over-performance against its Adjusted EBITDA targets, as well as the performance of the Corporation in a number of other areas (as discussed above under the headings "Longer-term Financial and Corporate Development Plan", "Annual Corporate Financial Targets" and "Common Share Price") and Mr. Pagan's contribution to such performance, Mr. Pagan was awarded a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 in the amount of $400,000, being his on-target short-term incentive eligibility at 100% of his on-target short-term incentive for fiscal 2023, to be paid in cash.

Chief Commercial Officer - Andrew Roszko

Mr. Roszko was promoted to the role of Chief Commercial Officer in June 2022 from Mr. Roszko's previous role of Executive Vice President, Global Sales which he had held since February 2019.

The Compensation Committee received certain recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the setting of Mr. Roszko's compensation package for fiscal 2023. In considering these recommendations, the Compensation Committee reviewed previous benchmarking reports prepared by the Corporation's compensation consultant assessing the compensation arrangements of roles similar to that of Mr. Roszko within the Comparator Group.

In determining the appropriate compensation levels and pay mix for Mr. Roszko for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the new role which Mr. Roszko was being promoted in to and his ongoing role in managing the Corporation's global sales organization and his responsibility for achieving overall sales revenue targets. Considering the performance of the Corporation in fiscal 2022 and based on the recommendation of the CEO which was then approved by the Compensation Committee, the compensation arrangements for Mr. Roszko for fiscal 2023 included base salary in the amount of $350,000 (a 17% increase from $300,000 in fiscal 2022), on-target eligibility for short-term incentives set at $350,000, being 100% of base salary, with a maximum eligibility of 150% of base salary and eligibility for long-term incentives set at $1,300,000 for fiscal 2023 (an increase from $800,000 in fiscal 2022). This increase in both base salary and in long-term incentive eligibility was primarily as a result of the promotion of Mr. Roszko to the role of Chief Commercial Officer in June 2022 and the corresponding findings of the Compensation Committee to maintain target total compensation roughly in line with the median compensation level identified in the Peer Group compensation study for that role. The long-term incentive component for Mr. Roszko in respect of fiscal 2023 was awarded 50% in the form of PSUs vesting following a three-year performance period, 25% in the form of RSUs vesting equally over three years and 25% in the form of stock options vesting over three years.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award Mr. Roszko in respect of fiscal 2023. As previously discussed above, considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023 and its over-performance against its Adjusted EBITDA targets and, in the case of Mr. Roszko specifically, the performance of the Corporation against its aggregate revenue targets and Mr. Roszko's contribution to such performance, Mr. Roszko was awarded a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 in the amount of $350,000, being his on-target short-term incentive eligibility at 100% of his on-target short-term incentive for fiscal 2023, to be paid in cash.

Executive Vice President, Product Management - Kenneth Wood

The Compensation Committee received certain recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer with respect to Mr. Wood's compensation package for fiscal 2023. As part of its review of the recommendations, the Compensation Committee considered overall executive compensation trends that had been noted by its compensation consultant and determined that any compensation adjustments within the executive officer positions of the Corporation, of which Mr. Wood is a part, should be more heavily weight towards increases in the long-term incentive component of such compensation. Considering the performance of the Corporation in fiscal 2022 and based on the recommendation of the CEO which was then approved by the Compensation Committee, the compensation arrangements for Mr. Wood for fiscal 2023 included base salary in the amount of $265,000 (a 6% increase from $250,000 in fiscal 2022), on-target eligibility for short-term incentives set at $79,500, being 30% of base salary, with a maximum eligibility of 45% of base salary and eligibility for long-term incentives set at $555,500 for fiscal 2023 (an increase of 39% from $400,000 in fiscal 2022 in an effort to align the overall compensation of Mr. Wood more closely to the median compensation level for similar roles as identified in the Peer Group compensation study for fiscal 2023 and consistent with the intention of the Compensation Committee that any increases be more heavily weighted in the area of long-term incentive and "at-risk" compensation). The long-term incentive component for Mr. Wood in respect of fiscal 2023 was awarded 50% in the form of PSUs vesting following a three-year performance period, 25% in the form of RSUs vesting equally over three years and 25% in the form of stock options vesting over three years.

Upon the completion of fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee considered the appropriate level of short-term incentives to award Mr. Wood in respect of fiscal 2023. As previously discussed above, considering the Corporation's overall performance in fiscal 2023 and its over-performance against its Adjusted EBITDA targets and Mr. Wood's contribution to such performance, Mr. Wood was awarded a short-term incentive in respect of fiscal 2023 in the amount of $79,500, being his on-target short-term incentive eligibility at 100% of his on-target short-term incentive for fiscal 2023, to be paid in cash.

(1) Amounts in this column reflect actual amounts paid during the specified period and may not reflect the base salary set for the specified period under the Corporation's compensation plans depending upon the timing of any adjustments to base salary during the fiscal year.

(2) Dollar amounts in this column reflect the grant date fair value of CRSUs, PSUs and RSUs issued in the applicable year which are recorded by the Corporation for expense purposes in its functional currency of Canadian dollars and converted to US dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the specified period and which may vary from the exchange rate applied at the time of calculating the US dollar equivalent fair value as of the grant date. Stated amounts do not include any amounts of annual short-term incentive plan compensation that the NEO elected to receive in the form of CRSUs. The grant date fair value of a CRSU was determined by multiplying the number of CRSUs granted by the weighted-average closing price of the Common Shares in the period of five trading days preceding the date of the grant. This approach is used as it is the model used to value CRSUs for the purposes of the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. The grant date fair value of a PSU is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation approach. This approach is used as it is the model used to value PSUs for the purposes of the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. The grant date fair value of an RSU is based on the closing price of the Common Shares on the trading day preceding the date of the grant. This approach is used as it is the model used to value RSUs for the purposes of the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Amounts in this column do not reflect any actual financial benefit an NEO may receive upon any eventual vesting and redemption of PSUs, RSUs or CRSUs. Please see the section entitled "Security-Based Compensation Plans".

(3) Dollar amounts in this column reflect the grant date fair value of stock options issued in the applicable year which are recorded by the Corporation for expense purposes in its functional currency of Canadian dollars and converted to US dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the specified period and which may vary from the exchange rate applied at the time of calculating the US dollar equivalent fair value as of the grant date. Amounts in this column do not reflect whether the NEO has actually realized a financial benefit from the exercise of the awards. The grant date fair value of a stock option is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. This model is used as it is the model used to value stock options for the purposes of the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Please see the section entitled "Security-Based Compensation Plans - Common Shares Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans".

(4) Annual non-equity incentive plan compensation reflects the entitlement of an NEO pursuant to the Corporation's short-term incentives, described earlier in this Circular. An NEO may elect to take such entitlements in the form of cash or CRSUs. Where the NEO elected to receive an award in the form of CRSUs, the award is made using the weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX in the period of five trading days preceding the date of the grant and paid out over a period of ten quarters.

(5) "All Other Compensation" includes contributions made by the Corporation to, in the case of Messrs. Brett, Pagan and Roszko, the NEO's DPSP Plan or, in the case of Messrs. Ryan and Wood, the NEOs' 401(k) plan. "All Other Compensation" does not include benefits received by the NEOs which are available generally to all our salaried employees. "All Other Compensation" also does not include the value of perquisites for each NEO where the aggregate value of those is less than 10% of the NEO's total salary for the financial year and less than Cdn.$50,000. Mr. Ryan, as a salaried officer of the Corporation, does not receive compensation for serving as a Director of the Corporation.

(6) The Option-Based Awards granted to Mr. Roszko in fiscal 2023 included a one-time award of 50,000 options vesting over a period of five (5) years and having a Black-Scholes value of approximately $875,000 as of the date of grant in connection with Mr. Roszko's promotion to the role of Chief Commercial Officer.

Using the data and valuation methodology from the above summary compensation table, the Corporation has calculated the following:

(1) See the discussion of Executive Compensation for each of the NEOs commencing on page 61 above for details of the specific option- and share-based awards received in respect of fiscal 2023.

(2) Options granted April 15, 2016, April 13, 2017, April 13, 2018, April 13, 2019, April 12, 2020, December 7, 2020, April 14, 2021, April 14, 2022 and June 17, 2022 were granted with Canadian dollar exercise prices of Cdn.$24.79, Cdn.$29.90, Cdn.$36.44, Cdn.$50.40, Cdn.$51.58, Cdn.$73.67,Cdn. $81.87, Cdn. $80.50 and Cdn. $76.42 respectively. The exercise prices noted in this table have been converted to US dollars using an exchange rate of 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on January 31, 2023, the last business day of fiscal 2023. The April 15, 2016 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2017. The April 13, 2017 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2018. The April 13, 2018 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2019. The April 13, 2019 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2020 except for the 100,000 options granted to Mr. Roszko which vest annually over a period of five years from January 31, 2020. The April 12, 2020 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2021. The December 7, 2020 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of two years from January 31, 2022. The April 14, 2021 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2022. The April 14, 2022 options granted to Mr. Ryan, Mr. Brett, Mr. Pagan, Mr. Roszko and Mr. Wood vest annually over a period of three years from January 31, 2023. The June 17, 2022 options granted to Mr. Roszko vest annually over a period of five years from June 17, 2023.

(3) The value of unexercised in-the-money options has been calculated using the difference between the closing price of the Corporation's Common Shares on the TSX at the end of fiscal 2023 (Cdn.$97.10) and the Canadian dollar option exercise price (see footnote (2) above). The value has been reported in US dollars using an exchange rate of 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on January 31, 2023, the last business day of fiscal 2023. No adjustment has been made for options that have not yet vested and are therefore not yet exercisable.

(4) The number of PSUs included assumes a 1.0 adjustment factor. See also footnote (5).

(5) PSU awards under the PRSU Plan are subject to performance vesting criteria. The number of PSUs that vest on a vesting date is subject to an adjustment factor which ranges from 0.0 to 2.0 for outstanding grants. Please see the section entitled "Security-Based Compensation Plans - PRSU Plan". The market value of PSUs included assumes a 1.0 adjustment factor.

(6) Unvested share-based awards are in the form of CRSUs, RSUs and PSUs. The market value of CRSUs, RSUs and PSUs that have not vested was determined using the closing price of the Common Shares on NASDAQ on January 31, 2023 ($73.02) being the last trading day of fiscal 2023.

(7) Vested share-based awards are in the form of RSUs and PSUs. The market value of RSUs and PSUs that have vested but have not been distributed was determined using the closing price of the Common Shares on NASDAQ on January 31, 2023 ($73.02), being the last trading day of fiscal 2023.

(1) The total value of stock options that vested in fiscal 2023. The value is equal to the difference between the closing price of the Corporation's Common Shares on the TSX on the vesting date and the Canadian dollar option exercise price. The value has been reported in US dollars using an exchange rate of 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on January 31, 2023, the last business day of fiscal 2023.

(2) The total value of RSUs, PSUs and CRSUs vested during fiscal 2023. The value of RSUs and PSUs that have vested was determined using the closing price of the Common Shares on NASDAQ on January 31, 2023 ($73.02), the last business day of fiscal 2023. PSUs that vested in fiscal 2023 are based on PSUs awarded in fiscal 2020 subject to three year performance vesting criteria and, based on the three year total shareholder return applicable to those PSU awards for the three-year period ended January 31, 2022, the final vested number of units resulting from such awards reflected a 1.739x performance factor adjustment.

(3) Annual non-equity incentive plan compensation reflects the entitlement of an NEO pursuant to the Corporation's short-term incentives, described earlier in this Circular. These amounts are also included in the Summary Compensation Table above.

CEO Five-Year Look Back Compensation

The following chart represents a five-year look back comparison of the on-target compensation awarded to the CEO in a fiscal year compared to the amounts "realizable" from those compensation awards.

The "Total Target Compensation" reflects the total on-target compensation set for the CEO by the Compensation Committee for the fiscal year as indicated, consisting of base salary, on-target STI eligibility and on-target LTI award values at time of grant.

The "Total Realizable Compensation" reflects the actual salary and STI amounts received by the CEO in respect of the fiscal year indicated plus the value of any vested RSUs, vested PSUs or vested stock options awarded as part of the LTI for the fiscal year indicated. RSUs and PSUs have been valued based on the fair market value of a Common Share on the date of vesting. Stock options have been valued based on the "in-the-money" value of the stock option on the date of vesting, being the difference between the fair market value of a Common Share and the exercise price of the stock option. In each case, the values have been calculated using the Canadian dollar closing price of Common Shares on the date of vesting, converted to USD at the applicable exchange rate as of that calculation date. These calculations are based on values determined as of vesting dates and are not reflective of actual amounts that may be received by the CEO depending on the timing of the redemption of any vested stock options or vested share units resulting from any of the RSU or PSU awards included in the 5 year period covered below. For details of any actual amounts received from exercises of vested stock options, please refer to the separate discussion of NEO option exercises above.

As a significant portion of the CEO's target compensation is in the form of LTI that is equity-based and vests over time, more recent periods will reflect that the LTI corresponding to that period has largely not yet vested. The appreciation in the price of Common Shares during the 5-year period has had a corresponding appreciation impact on the realizable value of the LTI compensation awarded in past years that is now being calculated in this chart as those past LTI awards vest. In addition, the Corporation's success in achieving the applicable performance criteria for incremental adjustment to the PSU awards during this 5-year period (as discussed above and in previous years in the discussion of Long-Term Incentives) has also resulted in a corresponding increase in the realizable value of the PSU component of the LTI compensation. The combination of share price appreciation and the impact of PSU performance-based adjustment factor vesting has resulted in an increase in Total Realizable Compensation compared to Target Total Compensation as the long-term incentive components of that compensation structure vest. This is consistent with long-term performance the compensation program adopted by the Compensation Committee is designed to reward.

The chart below similarly reflects that a significant portion of the compensation awarded in fiscal 2022 and 2023 is in the form of LTI that has not been earned yet and has not yet vested and therefore is not reflected in the "Total Realizable Compensation" for those fiscal years as of the date of this Circular based on the calculation method outlined above.

NEO Termination and Change of Control Benefits

The employment contracts we have with our NEOs may require us to make certain types of payments and provide certain types of benefits to the NEOs upon the occurrence of:

The termination without cause of the NEO;

A material adverse change to the NEO's terms of employment; and/or

A change of control of the Corporation.

The Corporation considers it to be in its best interests to establish severance benefits for its NEOs to provide certainty to both the Corporation in respect of its obligations in the event of termination of employment as well as to the NEOs as an incentive to encourage their retention and continued focus on the Corporation's operations in circumstances such as an unsolicited change of control transaction. The Corporation believes that the severance benefits established for its NEOs are competitive and in-line with market practice. The period over which severance benefits are calculated is based on the position held by the NEO and the NEO's length of service with the Corporation.

a.Termination Without Cause

If the NEO is terminated without cause, we may be obligated to make severance payments as described below. We may also be required to continue the NEO's employment benefits during any applicable severance period.

Edward J. Ryan / J. Scott Pagan

•

We are required to pay the NEO his base salary and on-target short-term compensation for up to two years.

Allan Brett

•

We are required to pay the NEO his base salary for up to one year and an amount equal to his annual average short-term compensation received over the two preceding years.

Andrew Roszko

•

We are required to pay the NEO his base salary for up to one year and an amount equal to his on-target short-term compensation for the then current year.

Kenneth Wood

•

We are required to pay the NEO his base salary for up to one year, subject to a 50% reduction of the unpaid balance of such severance amount from the date the departed NEO finds alternate employment prior to the end of the one-year period.

The PRSU Plan provides that if the employment of an NEO is terminated by the Corporation without cause, a prorated portion of the NEO's unvested Share Units will automatically vest, based on the number of months from the first day of the grant to the termination date divided by the number of months in the grant and, in the case of PSUs, using an adjustment factor of 1.0. The PRSU Plan provides that if the employment of an NEO is terminated by the Corporation without cause within 12 months of a Change of Control (as defined below), then there will be immediate accelerated vesting of all of the NEO's Share Units using an adjustment factor of 1.0. Potential payouts relating to such grants are reflected in the table in the section "Quantitative Estimates of Payments upon Termination or Change of Control".

b.Material Adverse Change to the NEO's Terms of Employment

If there is an adverse change in the relationship between the Corporation and the NEO without the NEO's written consent, we may be obligated to provide the payments or benefits to the NEO outlined above in the section "Termination Without Cause". Some examples of such an adverse change in the relationship between the NEO and the Corporation are as follows:

•

A Change in Control as described in the section below which results in a material change of the NEO's position, duties, responsibilities, title or office which were in effect immediately prior to such a change in control;

•

A material reduction by the Corporation of the NEO's salary, benefits or any other form of remuneration payable by the Corporation; or

•

A material breach of the employment agreement between the Corporation and the NEO that is committed by the Corporation.

c.Change of Control

The only situation in which a change in control, by itself and absent any termination of employment, results in any unvested compensation of an NEO being accelerated is the limited circumstances where there is:

•

A Corporate Transaction; and

•

The surviving, successor or acquiring entity does not assume the outstanding Share Units;

in which case, under the PRSU Plan all outstanding and then unvested Share Units will vest immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction at not less than 100% and not more than 200% as determined by the Compensation Committee.

•

A "Change of Control" includes:

A transaction in which any person or group acquires ownership of more than 50% of the Corporation's Common Shares, on a fully-diluted basis;

During any two-year period, directors, including any additional director whose election was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then in office or who were appointed by the directors then in office, cease to constitute a majority of the Board;

A transaction which results in more than 50% of the Corporation's Common Shares, on a fully-diluted basis, being held by any person or group other than the Corporation's shareholders immediately preceding the transaction; or

There is a transaction to sell all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation;

•

A "Corporate Transaction" is defined as any of the following:

A capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, plan of arrangement or other scheme or reorganization;

An offer for Common Shares, where the Common Shares subject to the offer, together with the offeror's Common Shares and Common Shares of any person or company acting jointly or in concert with the offeror, constitute in the aggregate 20% or more of the Common Shares;

An acquisition by a person of Common Shares such that the Common Shares acquired, together with the person's Shares and Shares of any person or company acting jointly or in concert with such person, constitute in the aggregate 20% or more of the Common Shares outstanding immediately after such acquisition, unless another person has previously acquired and continues to hold Common Shares that represent a greater percentage than the first-mentioned person;

A sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or any subsidiary; or

An extraordinary distribution to shareholders, including extraordinary cash dividends, dividends in kind and return of capital.

Quantitative Estimates of Payments to NEOs upon Termination or Change of Control

Further information regarding payments to our NEOs in the event of a termination without "cause" and/or upon a Change of Control may be found in the table below. This table sets forth the estimated amount of payments each NEO would be entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the indicated event, assuming that the event occurred on January 31, 2023. Amounts potentially payable under plans which are generally available to all salaried employees, such as life and disability insurance, are excluded from the table. The values related to vesting of stock options and awards are based upon the fair market value of our Common Shares of Cdn.$97.10 per Common Share as reported on the TSX on January 31, 2023, the last trading day of fiscal 2023, converted to US dollars at the rate of 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on January 31, 2023, the last business day of fiscal 2023. Stock option amounts deduct the applicable exercise price of the stock options. CRSU values are calculated using the fair market value of our Common Shares of $73.02 per Common Share as reported on NASDAQ on January 31, 2023, being the last trading day of fiscal 2023. Payments that would be incurred in Canadian dollars are also converted to US dollars at the rate of 1 US dollar = 1.335 Canadian dollars. Severance amounts included in the table below assume that an NEO does not obtain alternate employment during any severance period. Severance amounts do not include amounts payable by the Corporation on account of, or in lieu of, employment benefits. The "Without Cause" summary information includes any deemed termination by the Corporation due to an adverse change in relationship between the Corporation and the NEO.

Director Compensation

The Compensation Committee also exercises oversight over the compensation paid to non-executive directors of the Corporation and recommends the annual compensation program for directors to the Board of Directors for approval. In setting the director compensation structure for fiscal 2023, the Compensation Committee sought the advice of its outside, independent compensation consultant, Mercer, to provide assistance and guidance on director compensation issues. In making director compensation recommendations to the Board for approval, the Compensation Committee considers a number of factors, including: if applicable for that particular year, the director compensation benchmarking report from Mercer and the relative positioning of the board compensation within the Comparator Group; feedback from shareholders in the shareholder engagement process undertaken by the Board; the results of the previous year's "say on pay" shareholder vote; the overall performance of the Corporation over the past fiscal year in terms of both financial performance against its budget and its share price performance relative to the Comparator Group; overall industry trends in director compensation; and the general macro-economic environment facing the Corporation.

Given that a director compensation benchmarking study had been completed prior to fiscal 2022 which resulted in some adjustments to the director compensation model, the Compensation Committee determined that a refreshed benchmarking study was not required in advance of fiscal 2023 and determined to recommend to the Board that director compensation be maintained at the same level as in fiscal 2022.

Compensation Policies

Directors who are officers or employees of the Corporation receive no compensation for serving as directors. Non-employee directors of the Corporation were compensated in fiscal 2023 based on the annual retainers for Board and committee work outlined in the table below.

Retainer	Fiscal 2022 Amounts	Fiscal 2023 Amounts
Annual Base Retainer - Non-Executive Chair	$135,000	$135,000
Annual Base Retainer - All Other Non-Executive Directors	$60,000	$60,000
Audit Committee Retainer	$28,000 - Chair $14,000 - Member	$28,000 - Chair $14,000 - Member
Compensation Committee Retainer	$14,000 - Chair $7,000 - Member	$14,000 - Chair $7,000 - Member
Corporate Governance Committee Retainer	$14,000 - Chair $5,250 - Member	$14,000 - Chair $5,250 - Member

Nominations Committee Retainer	$7,000 - Chair $3,500 - Member	$7,000 - Chair $3,500 - Member
Annual Equity Grant - Non-Executive Chair	$200,000	$200,000
Annual Equity Grant - All Other Non-Executive Directors	$175,000	$175,000

Outside directors who are not ordinarily resident in the Province of Ontario and travel to attend a meeting of the Board in person were compensated an additional $1,500 per meeting.

All annual retainers are paid in cash and/or DSUs. Each DSU granted has a value equal to the weighted-average closing price of the Common Shares in the period of five trading days preceding the date of grant. A director may elect, prior to the commencement of a fiscal year, to receive a portion of his or her cash compensation for that fiscal year in the form of DSUs. Directors are required to receive a minimum of 50% of their retainer compensation in the form of DSUs if they have not yet achieved the minimum equity ownership threshold specified by the Director Equity Ownership Policy described below.

Directors are not permitted to purchase financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds that directly hedge or offset a decrease in market value of securities held, directly or indirectly, by the director.

Directors are entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred by them in their capacity as directors. During fiscal 2023, each non-employee member of the Board was also eligible for reimbursement of up to $3,000 per fiscal year (Non-Executive Chair of the Board, $5,000) of fees paid by that individual director for enrolment in continuing education courses or programs conducted by third parties or institutions relevant to their role as a director of the Corporation.

Director Equity Ownership Policy

The Corporation has an equity ownership policy applicable to directors (the "Director Equity Ownership Policy").

The objective of the Director Equity Ownership Policy is to ensure that non-Management members of the Board acquire and hold a meaningful ownership interest in the Corporation within a reasonable period following the individual's election or appointment to the Board. Under the policy, within five years of becoming subject to the policy, each non-Management director is required to attain and maintain the following equity ownership level. During a period when a non-Management director has not met the applicable equity ownership levels, the non-Management director must elect to receive at least 50% of the base annual retainer received by the director for serving on the Board in the form of DSUs.

Position	Equity Ownership Level as a Multiple of Annual Base Retainer
Non-Management Director	3X

For purposes of the Director Equity Ownership Policy, "Market Value" for determining compliance means the volume-weighted average trading price of a Common Share on the TSX for the five trading days preceding the measurement date. In determining compliance with the Director Equity Ownership Policy, Common Shares are included and valued at Market Value at the date of measurement and DSUs are included and valued at Market Value at the date of measurement.

The following table identifies the equity ownership levels of each of the current Directors, other than Mr. Ryan, Chief Executive Officer, as at May 5, 2023 with reference to the minimum equity ownership levels required by the Director Equity Ownership Policy. Where Market Values have been included in the table they are calculated by multiplying the number of securities by the volume-weighted average trading price of a Common Share on the TSX for the five trading days preceding May 5, 2023, being Cdn.$104.86 converted to US dollars at the rate of 1 US dollar = 1.3566, being the indicative foreign exchange rate reported by the Bank of Canada on May 4, 2023. Minimum equity ownership levels are determined by multiplying the level set out in the Director Equity Ownership Policy by the current annual base retainer (which, as of the date of this Circular, is $135,000 for Mr. Demirian in his role as Chair and $60,000 for other directors):

Name	Minimum Equity Ownership Level ($)	Value of Holdings per Equity Ownership Policies⁽¹⁾ ($)	Minimum Equity Ownership Level Achieved?
Deepak Chopra	180,000	845,852	Yes
Deborah Close	180,000	2,945,680	Yes

SECURITY-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

Common Shares Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

The following table sets out, as of January 31^st, 2023 and May 5, 2023, the number and price of Common Shares to be issued under equity compensation plans to employees, directors and others. The percentages in parentheses in the table are the number of Common Shares to be issued under equity compensation plans to employees and others as a percentage of the Corporation's Common Shares outstanding as of each of January 31^st, 2023 and May 5, 2023.

(1) PSU awards under the PRSU Plan are subject to performance vesting criteria. The number of PSUs that vest on a vesting date is subject to an adjustment factor which ranges from 0.0 to 2.0 for unvested outstanding grants. Please see the section entitled "Security-Based Compensation Plans - PRSU Plan". In this chart, the number of Common Shares to be issued upon redemption of outstanding PSUs assumes a 2.0 adjustment factor.

(2) RSUs and PSUs issued under the PRSU Plan are excluded from the total calculation of weighted-average exercise price.

(3) The Corporation's 1998 Stock Option Plan and the PRSU Plan, each of which is described in more detail below, are the only current equity compensation plans that have been approved by shareholders pursuant to which the Corporation may issue previously unissued Common Shares.

(4) In connection with Mr. Allan Brett joining the Corporation as Chief Financial Officer, on July 3, 2014 he was granted (a) 6,642 RSUs redeemable for Common Shares, and (b) 6,642 PSUs redeemable for Common Shares. The other material features of the foregoing RSUs and PSUs are the same as provided for under the PRSU Plan but were not granted pursuant to such plan. Please see the section entitled "Security-Based Compensation Plans - PRSU Plan". The foregoing equity compensation was, in each case, granted without shareholder approval, in compliance with an allowance under the rules of the TSX, as an inducement for such individual to enter into a contract of full-time employment with the Corporation.

(5) No new awards of Share Units may be made under the PRSU Plan after April 30, 2022, being the tenth anniversary of the PRSU Plan's effective date.

1998 Stock Option Plan

Eligible participants ("Participants") under the Corporation's 1998 Stock Option Plan are directors, officers, key employees and service providers of the Corporation. Participants under the plan are eligible to be granted options to purchase Common Shares at an exercise price established upon approval of the grant by the Board. A maximum aggregate of 13,154,787 Common Shares have been reserved for issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan since its inception, representing 15.46% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of May 5, 2023. As at each of January 31, 2023 and May 5, 2023, the Common Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options under the 1998 Stock Option Plan were 1,593,433 and 1,684,281, respectively, and the aggregate number of Common Shares remaining available for issuance pursuant to further grants was 2,703,675 and 2,429,216, respectively.

As of May 5, 2023, an aggregate of 9,041,290 options granted pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan have been exercised for Common Shares since the 1998 Stock Option Plan's inception, representing 10.63% of the 85,078,029 Common Shares outstanding as of May 5, 2023.

The annual "burn rate" under the 1998 Stock Option Plan for the three most recently completed financial years, expressed as a percentage and calculated by dividing the number of options granted during the fiscal year by the weighted average number of Shares outstanding for the fiscal year, is set forth in the following table:

	Fiscal 2021	Fiscal 2022	Fiscal 2023
Options Granted during the fiscal period	381,859	271,025	356,014
Weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding for the fiscal period	84,360,284	84,591,234	84,791,155
"Burn Rate"	0.45%	0.32%	0.42%

When options are granted, the exercise price is determined as the highest of the closing sale prices for board lots of Common Shares on the stock exchanges on which the Common Shares are

listed, and on which at least one board lot was traded, on the first business day immediately preceding the day on which the grant was made. The 1998 Stock Option Plan does not authorize grants of options with an exercise price below this market price. Vesting rules for stock option grants are determined by the Board and set out in the option grant agreement between the Participant and the Corporation. The typical vesting for employee grants is annual vesting over five years, and the typical vesting for directors and executive officers is quarterly vesting over three to five years. The term of the options is established by the Board and set out in the option grant agreement; provided that, pursuant to the terms of the 1998 Stock Option Plan, the term of an option may not exceed 10 years from the date of the grant. All outstanding options that have been granted pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan have terms of seven years. Options that would expire within, or within the 10 business days that follow, a trading black-out may be exercised within 10 business days following the end of such trading black-out. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Compensation Committee of the Board has the sole and complete authority to take any action required by Section 162(m) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "US TaxCode"), with respect to any awards under the 1998 Stock Option Plan that are intended to be performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the US Tax Code.

No options may be granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan if, together with any of the Corporation's other security based compensation arrangements of the Corporation, such grant of options could result in the aggregate number of Common Shares (i) issued to insiders, within any one-year period or (ii) issuable to insiders at any time, in either case, exceeding 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares; provided, however, that the number of options or Share Appreciation Rights ("SARs") that may be granted to any Participant in any one calendar year shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

No options may be granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan to any non-employee director if such grant would, at the time of the grant, result in: (i) the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to non-employee directors under the 1998 Stock Option Plan and all other security-based compensation arrangements of the Corporation exceeding 1.0% of the total number of Common Shares then-issued and outstanding; (ii) the aggregate value of options granted to the non-employee director during the Corporation's fiscal year exceeding $100,000; or (iii) the aggregate value of options and, in the case of security based compensation arrangements that do not provide for the granting of options ("Full Value Awards"), the grant date value of Common Shares, granted to the non-employee director during the Corporation's fiscal year exceeding $150,000, provided that any Full Value Award elected to be received by a non-employee director, in the non-employee director's discretion, in place of the same value of foregone cash compensation from the Corporation shall not be counted toward the foregoing $150,000 limit.

The 1998 Stock Option Plan also provides for the issuance of SARs in tandem with options. Shareholder approval for such amendment was not required under the 1998 Stock Option Plan or pursuant to the rules of the TSX or NASDAQ and therefore was not sought. Under the terms of the 1998 Stock Option Plan, each SAR entitles the holder to surrender to the Corporation, unexercised, the right to subscribe for a Common Share pursuant to the related option and receive from the Corporation cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of a Common Share on the date the SAR is exercised minus the exercise price under the related option, net of applicable withholding taxes and other source deductions. For this purpose, fair market value of a Common Share is deemed to be the amount that would be the exercise price of an option covering such Common Share, if such option were granted on the date of exercise of the SAR. The Corporation may, if authorized by the Board in its discretion, in lieu of all or a portion of the cash amount that would be payable to a holder of a SAR in respect of the exercise of one or more SARs, issue to such holder Common Shares equal to the number produced by dividing the amount that would be payable in cash in respect of the exercise of such SARs by the amount that would be the fair market value of a Common Share on the date of exercise of the SARs, rounded down to the next whole Common Share.

Each unexercised SAR terminates when the related option is exercised or the option terminates. Upon each exercise of a SAR in respect of a Common Share covered by an option such option shall be cancelled in respect of such Common Share and shall be of no further force or effect. If any option is cancelled in connection with the exercise of the related SAR, the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan shall be reduced by the number of Common Shares underlying such cancelled options.

The 1998 Stock Option Plan addresses the implications for option exercise rights in the case of the termination of a Participant's employment, the removal or non re-election of a Participant who is a director, and the death of a Participant, all of which are subject to the discretion of the Board to establish alternate treatment on a case-by-case basis. In the event of the termination of the Participant's employment with the Corporation for cause or the removal of a Participant who is a director of the Corporation prior to the end of his or her term, each vested and unvested option granted to that Participant immediately terminates, subject to the discretion of the Board. In the event of the death of a Participant, each option granted to that Participant that has not then vested immediately terminates, subject to the discretion of the Board, and all options that have vested may be exercised by the Participant's estate at any time within six months from the date of death. If a Participant's employment with the Corporation is terminated other than for cause or a director is not re-elected to the Board, each option granted to the Participant that has not vested will immediately terminate, subject to the discretion of the Board, and each option that has vested may be exercised by the Participant at any time within six months of the date of termination or non re-election, as the case may be.

A Participant may assign or transfer one or more options granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan to a personal holding corporation wholly owned by such Participant or to a registered retirement savings plan established for the sole benefit of such Participant. Except as specified above and in the preceding paragraph, options granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan may only be exercised by a Participant personally and no assignment or transfer of options is permitted.

The 1998 Stock Option Plan does not permit financial assistance to be provided to Participants to facilitate the purchase of Common Shares pursuant to options granted.

The Corporation may withhold from any amount payable to a Participant such amount as may be necessary to enable the Corporation to comply with the applicable requirements of any federal, provincial, state or local law, or any administrative policy of any applicable tax authority, relating to the withholding of tax or any other required deductions with respect to Options hereunder ("WithholdingObligations"). The Corporation also has the right, in its discretion, to satisfy any liability for any Withholding Obligations by selling, or causing a broker to sell, on behalf of any Participant or causing any Participant to sell such number of Common Shares issued to the Participant sufficient to fund the Withholding Obligations (after deducting any commissions payable to the broker).

The following types of amendments to the 1998 Stock Option Plan require shareholder approval: (i) any increase in the maximum number of Common Shares issuable by the Corporation under the 1998 Stock Option Plan; (ii) any amendment that would reduce the option exercise price at which options may be granted below the minimum price currently provided for in the 1998 Stock Option Plan; (iii) any amendment that would increase or delete the percentage limits on the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable or that could be issuable to insiders under the 1998 Stock Option Plan; (iv) any amendment that would increase or delete the maximum term during which options may be exercised pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan to be greater than 10 years; (v) any amendment that would extend the expiry date of any outstanding option, subject to the expiry date occurring during a trading black-out; (vi) any amendment that would reduce the exercise price of an outstanding option (other than as may result from general anti-dilution adjustments provided for in the 1998 Stock Option Plan) including a cancellation of an option and re-grant of an option to the same Participant in conjunction therewith, constituting a reduction of the exercise price of the option; (vii) any exchange for cash or other

entitlements of an option for which the exercise price is equal to, or less than, the fair market value of a Common Share; (viii) any amendment that would permit transfers or assignments to persons not currently permitted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan; (ix) any amendment that would expand the scope of those persons eligible to participate in the 1998 Stock Option Plan; (x) any amendment to increase or delete the value of options granted or the percentage limit relating to Common Shares issuable, in each case, to non-executive directors; (xi) any amendment that would allow the Board to reduce the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued under the 1998 Stock Option Plan in respect of the exercise of a SAR by less than one whole Common Share; (xii) any amendment to provide for other types of compensation through equity issuance; and (xiii) any amendment to the amendment procedures. Any amendment other than those expressly enumerated in the 1998 Stock Option Plan or that would require shareholder approval under applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX and NASDAQ) may be made by the Board without shareholder approval.

PRSU Plan

On April 30^th, 2012, the Board adopted the PRSU Plan pursuant to which the Board may, from time to time, determine those eligible employees who will receive a grant of RSUs and/or PSUs. The purposes of the PRSU Plan are to: (i) support the achievement of the Corporation's performance objectives; (ii) ensure that interests of key persons are aligned with the success of the Corporation; (iii) provide compensation opportunities to attract, retain and motivate senior Management critical to the long-term success of the Corporation and its subsidiaries; and (iv) provide compensation incentives that do not promote excessive risk-taking by the Corporation's key employees. Non-employee directors are not eligible to participate in the PRSU Plan. The PRSU Plan has been amended from time to time since its original adoption and the most current version of the PRSU Plan, with certain amendments as adopted by the Board on April 26^th, 2022 having received shareholder approval at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Corporation held on June 16^th, 2022. Such amendments included: the removal of an express expiry date on the PRSU Plan; certain amendments of a housekeeping nature; amendments related to trading blackout periods; updates to the concept of "Corporate Transaction"; and amendments to the plan amendment provisions

As of May 5, 2023. there were 982,932 PSUs and 477,237 RSUs issued and outstanding pursuant to the PRSU Plan, with a potential of up to a further 270,566 PSUs being earned if a maximum 2.0 performance factor is achieved in respect of the outstanding PSU awards.

Over the past three fiscal years, the Corporation's "burn rate" under the PRSU Plan has been as follows:

	Fiscal 2021	Fiscal 2022	Fiscal 2023
RSUs and PSUs Granted during the fiscal period¹	228,186	204,981	259,633
Weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding for the fiscal period	84,360,284	84,591,234	84,791,155
"Burn Rate"	0.27%	0.24%	0.31%

(1) The number of PSUs granted for the purposes of the above is calculated based on the maximum number of PSUs that could be earned over the three-year performance period applicable to the PSUs using a maximum 2.0 performance factor.

The maximum number of Common Shares currently available for issuance under the PRSU Plan is 2,587,500 Common Shares, representing 3.04% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as at May 5, 2023; provided that Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Share Units that are terminated or are cancelled without having been redeemed will again be available for issuance under

the PRSU Plan; and also provided that Common Shares underlying Share Units that are redeemed will not again be available for issuance under the PRSU Plan.

Pursuant to the terms of the PRSU Plan: (i) the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Share Units and/or other units or stock options and/or under any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Corporation to any one person shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation; (ii) the number of Common Shares issued to any insider or that insider's associates under the PRSU Plan and/or under any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Corporation shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation within a 12-month period; and (iii) the aggregate number of Common Shares issued to insiders of the Corporation within any 12-month period, or issuable to insiders of the Corporation at any time, under the PRSU Plan and any other security-based compensation arrangement of the Corporation, may not exceed 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation at such time.

Subject to the Compensation Committee reporting to the Board on all matters relating to the PRSU Plan and obtaining approval of the Board for those matters required by the Compensation Committee's mandate, the PRSU Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which has the sole and absolute discretion to recommend to the Board the individuals to whom grants of Share Units should be made and the number of Share Units to be granted; interpret and administer the PRSU Plan; establish conditions to the vesting of Share Units; set, waive, and amend performance targets; and make any other determinations that the Compensation Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the PRSU Plan. Any decision of the Compensation Committee with respect to the administration and interpretation of the PRSU Plan will be conclusive and binding on the participants.

The Board may award Share Units to any eligible person and an eligible person may elect to defer compensation to be received under the Corporation's annual incentive program in the form of RSUs, by delivering to the Corporation an election notice not later than December 31 of the year preceding the first date of any period of services over which any compensation to be received under the annual incentive program would be earned. Such eligible person will be awarded the number of RSUs determined by dividing the dollar amount of incentive compensation to be deferred by the Fair Market Value as at the award date.

Each Share Unit granted to a participant under the PRSU Plan is credited to the participant's share unit account. From time to time, a participant's share unit account will be credited with Dividend Share Unitsin respect of outstanding PSUs or RSUs, as applicable, on each dividend payment date in respect of which dividends are paid in the ordinary course on Common Shares. Such Dividend PSUs and Dividend RSUs are computed as the amount of any such dividend declared and paid per Common Share multiplied by the number of PSUs and RSUs, as applicable, recorded in the participant's share unit account on the date for the payment of such dividend, divided by the Fair Market Value as at the dividend payment date.

Each RSU vests on the date or dates designated in the applicable grant agreement or such earlier date as is provided for in the PRSU Plan or is determined by the Compensation Committee, conditional on the satisfaction of any additional vesting conditions established by the Compensation Committee.

Each PSU vests on the date or dates designated in the applicable grant agreement or such earlier date as is provided in the PRSU Plan or is determined by the Compensation Committee, conditional on the satisfaction of any additional vesting conditions established by the Compensation Committee. The number of PSUs that vest on a vesting date are the number of PSUs and Dividend PSUs scheduled to vest on such vesting date multiplied by the applicable adjustment factor set out in the relevant grant agreement. The adjustment factor, which ranges from 0.0 to 2.0 for outstanding grants, is determined

based on the relative performance of the Corporation with respect to a group of comparator companies determined by the Compensation Committee.

Canadian participants may elect at any time to redeem vested Share Units on any date or dates after the date the Share Units become vested and on or before the expiry date. U.S. participants shall elect to redeem vested Share Units on a fixed date or dates after the date the Share Units become vested and on or before the expiry date in accordance with the terms of the PRSU Plan. A participant who does not elect an early redemption date as specified under the PRSU Plan shall have vested Share Units redeemed on their expiry date. The expiry date for Share Units is determined by the Compensation Committee for each applicable grant.

The Corporation redeems each Share Unit elected to be redeemed by a participant on the applicable redemption date by (i) issuing to the participant the number of Common Shares equal to one Common Share for each whole vested Share Unit elected to be redeemed and delivering (A) such number of Common Shares; less (B) the number of Common Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the Applicable Withholdings (as defined in the PRSU Plan); or (ii) at the election of the participant and subject to the consent of the Corporation, paying the participant an amount in cash equal to: (A) the number of vested Share Units elected to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the Fair Market Value minus (C) Applicable Withholdings; or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii).

If a Share Unit would be redeemed within a trading blackout period applicable to the holder of the Share Unit, such redemption will automatically be postponed until the trading blackout period ends.

Rights respecting Share Units and Dividend Share Units are not transferable or assignable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

In the event a participant's employment is terminated due to resignation by the participant or by the Corporation for just cause, the participant will forfeit all rights, title and interest with respect to Share Units and the related Dividend Share Units which are not vested at the participant's termination date. All vested Share Units will be redeemed as at the participant's termination date.

In the event a participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation without just cause, a pro-rata portion of the participant's unvested PSUs and Dividend PSUs will vest immediately prior to the participant's termination date, based on the number of complete months from the first day of the performance period to the applicable termination date divided by the number of months in the performance period and using an adjustment factor of one. Similarly, if the participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation without just cause, a pro-rata portion of the participant's unvested RSUs and Dividend RSUs will vest immediately prior to the participant's termination date, based on the number of months from the first day of the grant term to the termination date divided by the number of months in the grant term. The participant's vested PSUs and RSUs will be redeemed as at the participant's termination date.

In the event a participant's employment is terminated by the death or disability of the participant or the participant ceases to be employed due to retirement, all of the participant's PSUs and RSUs and related Dividend PSUs and Dividend RSUs, as applicable, will vest immediately prior to the date of such event, for purposes of PSUs using an adjustment factor of one, and will be redeemed as at that date.

In the event that employment of a participant is terminated by the Corporation without just cause or if the participant resigns in circumstances constituting constructive termination, in each case, within twelve months following a Change of Control (as such term is defined under the PRSU Plan) which includes, among other things the acquisition of 50% or more of the Common Shares, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or a significant change in directors of the Corporation, all of the participant's Share Units and related Dividend Share Units as applicable will vest immediately

prior to the participant's termination date, for purposes of PSUs using an adjustment factor of one, and will be redeemed as at that date.

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the PRSU Plan, or any portion thereof or, subject to the consent of the holder, any outstanding Share Units granted thereunder, at any time, and in whole or in part, subject to those provisions of applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX and NASDAQ), if any, that require the approval of shareholders or any governmental or regulatory body, provided that, the Board may not, without seeking shareholder approval of the holders of a majority of the Common Shares present and voting in person or by proxy at a meeting of shareholders, make:

(i)

amendments to the number of Common Shares issuable under the PRSU Plan;

(ii)

any amendment expanding the categories of eligible person which would have the potential of permitting the introduction of non-employee members of the Board;

(iii)

any amendment extending the term of a Share Unit or any rights pursuant thereto held by an insider beyond its original expiry date;

(iv)

the addition of any other provision which results in participants receiving Common Shares while no cash consideration is received by the Corporation;

(v)

any amendment that would increase or remove the insider participation limits;

(vi)

amendments which would permit awards to be transferred or assigned other than for normal estate planning purposes; and

(vii)

amendments to the amending provision within the PRSU Plan.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing pre-amble, but subject to the foregoing listed subsections, the Board may, without shareholder approval, make:

(i)

amendments that are of a "housekeeping" nature;

(ii)

amendments to the terms and conditions of the PRSU Plan necessary to ensure that the PRSU Plan complies with the provisions of applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX);

(iii)

amendments to the provisions of the PRSU Plan respecting administration of the PRSU Plan and eligibility for participation under the PRSU Plan;

(iv)

amendments to the provisions of the PRSU Plan respecting the terms and conditions on which Share Units may be granted to eligible persons pursuant to the PRSU Plan; and

(v)

any other amendments not requiring shareholder approval under the provisions of applicable law (including, without limitation, the rules, regulations and policies of the TSX and NASDAQ).

Subject to the foregoing, the Board may amend or modify any outstanding Share Unit in any manner, provided that, where such amendment or modification is adverse to the holder, the consent of the holder is required to effect such amendment or modification.

Directors' DSU Plan

The Corporation adopted a deferred share unit plan (the "DSU Plan") effective June 28^th, 2004. Pursuant to the DSU Plan, non-employee directors are entitled to elect to receive deferred share units ("DSUs") in full or partial satisfaction of their annual retainers, with each DSU having a value equal to the market price of the Common Shares, which under the DSU Plan is equal to the weighted-average closing price of the Common Shares in the period of five trading days preceding the date of grant. Although each DSU is fully vested on grant, it is not payable by the Corporation until the non-employee director ceases to be a member of the Board. Each director is required to hold the DSUs until the director either resigns or is not re-elected to the Board, following which the DSU will be redeemed by the

Corporation for cash during a prescribed period at a value equal to the market price of the Common Shares prevailing at the date of redemption. No Common Shares are issuable pursuant to the DSU Plan. There are no restrictions on a director assigning his or her entitlement to payment pursuant to the DSU Plan. The Corporation may amend the DSU Plan as it deems necessary or appropriate, but no such amendment may adversely affect the rights of an eligible director in DSUs granted prior to the date of amendment without the consent of the director.

Cash-settled RSU Plan

The Corporation adopted a cash-settled restricted share unit plan (the "CRSU Plan") effective May 23^rd, 2007. Pursuant to the CRSU Plan, full-time employees and outside directors are eligible to receive cash-settled restricted share units ("CRSUs") in respect of services rendered in a fiscal year. A participant is entitled to receive a payout in respect of each vested CRSU, with each CRSU having a value equal to the market price of the Common Shares, which under the CRSU Plan is equal to the weighted-average closing price of the Common Shares in the period of five trading days preceding the date of the payout. Vesting terms and conditions for the CRSUs may be set out in a separate grant agreement, provided that all CRSUs automatically vest on December 1^st of the third calendar year following the end of the calendar year that includes the last day of the fiscal year in which services to which the grant of CRSUs relates were rendered. Vested CRSUs must be paid out by the Corporation within 30 days of vesting and, at the latest, by the end of the calendar year in which they vest. No Common Shares are issuable pursuant to the CRSU Plan. There are no restrictions on a participant assigning his or her entitlement to payment pursuant to the CRSU Plan. The Corporation may amend the CRSU Plan as it deems necessary or appropriate, but no such amendment may adversely affect the rights of a participant in CRSUs granted prior to the date of amendment without the consent of the participant.

SCHEDULE "A"

SUMMARY OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

The following is a summary of key features of the Amended Rights Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amended Rights Plan Agreement, a copy of which is available on www.sedar.com or also on request from the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation as described in the Circular. All capitalized terms used in this summary without definition have the meanings attributed to them in the Amended Rights Plan unless otherwise indicated.

(a)Issuance of Rights

One Right was issued by the Corporation for each Common Share outstanding at the close of business on November 29, 2004, the date that the Rights Plan came into effect, and one Right was issued and will continue to be issued for each Common Share of the Corporation after such date and prior to the earlier of the Separation Time and the Expiration Time. The Amended Rights Plan reconfirms the Rights and the Corporation's authority to continue issuing one new Right for each Common Share issued.

Each Right entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase from the Corporation one Common Share at the exercise price equal to three times the Market Price of the Common Share, subject to adjustment and certain anti-dilution provisions (the "Exercise Price"). The Rights are not exercisable until the Separation Time. If a Flip-in Event occurs, each Right will entitle the registered holder to receive, upon payment of the Exercise Price, Common Shares having an aggregate market price equal to twice the Exercise Price.

The Corporation is not required to issue or deliver Rights, or securities upon the exercise of Rights, outside Canada or the United States where such issuance or delivery would be unlawful without registration of the relevant Persons or securities. If the Amended Rights Plan would require compliance with securities laws or comparable legislation of a jurisdiction outside Canada and the United States, the Board may establish procedures for the issuance to a Canadian resident fiduciary of such securities, to hold such Rights or other securities in trust for the Persons beneficially entitled to them, to sell such securities, and to remit the proceeds to such Persons.

(b)Trading of Rights

Until the Separation Time (or the earlier termination or expiration of the Rights), the Rights will be evidenced by the certificates representing the Common Shares and will be transferable only together with the associated Common Shares. From and after the Separation Time, separate certificates evidencing the Rights ("Rights Certificates") will be mailed to holders of record of Common Shares (other than an Acquiring Person) as of the Separation Time. Rights Certificates will also be issued in respect of Common Shares issued prior to the Expiration Time, to each holder (other than an Acquiring Person) converting, after the Separation Time, securities ("Convertible Securities") convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares. The Rights will trade separately from the Common Shares after the Separation Time.

(c)Separation Time

The Separation Time is the Close of Business on the tenth Business Day after the earlier of (i) the "Stock Acquisition Date", which is generally the first date of public

A-1

announcement of facts indicating that a Person has become an Acquiring Person or such later date as may from time to time be determined by the Board; (ii) the date of the commencement of, or first public announcement of the intent of any Person (other than the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation) to commence a Take-over Bid (other than a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid, so long as such bid continues to satisfy the requirements of a Permitted Bid or Competing Permitted Bid); and (iii) the date on which a Permitted Bid ceases to qualify as such.

In any case, the Separation Time can be such later date as may from time to time be determined by the Board. If a Take-over Bid expires, is cancelled, terminated or otherwise withdrawn prior to the Separation Time, it shall be deemed never to have been made.

(d)Acquiring Person

In general, an Acquiring Person is a Person who is or becomes the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares. Excluded from the definition of "Acquiring Person" are the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, and any Person who becomes the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares as a result of one or more or any combination of an acquisition or redemption by the Corporation of Common Shares, a Permitted Bid Acquisition, an Exempt Acquisition, a Convertible Security Acquisition and a Pro Rata Acquisition. The definitions of "Permitted Bid Acquisition", "Exempt Acquisition", "Convertible Security Acquisition" and "Pro Rata Acquisition" are set out in the Amended Rights Plan. However, in general:

(i)

a "Permitted Bid Acquisition" means an acquisition of Common Shares made pursuant to a Permitted Bid or a Competing Permitted Bid;

(ii)

an "Exempt Acquisition" means an acquisition of Common Shares in respect of which the Board has waived the application of the Amended Rights Plan, which was made pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan of the Corporation, which was made pursuant to the receipt or exercise of rights issued by the Corporation to all the holders of Common Shares (other than holders resident in a jurisdiction where such distribution is restricted or impracticable as a result of applicable law) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or Convertible Securities (provided that such rights are acquired directly from the Corporation and not from any other Person and provided that the Person does not hereby acquire a greater percentage of Common Shares or Convertible Securities so offered than the Person's percentage of Common Shares or Convertible Securities Beneficially Owned immediately prior to such acquisition), which was made pursuant to a distribution by the Corporation of Common Shares or Convertible Securities made pursuant to a prospectus (provided that the Person does not thereby acquire a greater percentage of the Common Shares or Convertible Securities so offered than the percentage Beneficially Owned immediately prior to such acquisition), which was made pursuant to a distribution by the Corporation of Common Shares or Convertible Securities by way of a private placement or a securities exchange take-over bid circular or upon the exercise by an individual employee of stock options granted under a stock option plan of the Corporation or rights to purchase securities granted under a share purchase plan of the Corporation, or which is made pursuant to an amalgamation arrangement, merger or other statutory procedure requiring approval of the Corporation's shareholders;

A-2

(iii)

a "Convertible Security Acquisition" means an acquisition of Common Shares upon the exercise of Convertible Securities received by such Person pursuant to a Permitted Bid Acquisition, Exempt Acquisition or a Pro Rata Acquisition; and

(iv)

a "Pro Rata Acquisition" means an acquisition as a result of a stock dividend, a stock split or other event pursuant to which such Person receives or acquires Common Shares or Convertible Securities on the same pro rata basis as all other holders of Common Shares of the same class.

Also excluded from the definition of "Acquiring Person" are underwriters or members of a banking or selling group, acting in such capacity, who are acting in connection with a distribution of securities by way of prospectus, registration statement or private placement.

(e)Beneficial Ownership

General

In general, a Person is deemed to Beneficially Own Common Shares actually held by others in circumstances where those holdings are or should be grouped together for purposes of the Amended Rights Plan. Included are holdings by the Person's Affiliates (generally, a Person that controls, is controlled by, or under common control with another Person) and Associates (generally, relatives sharing the same residence). Also included are securities which the Person or any of the Person's Affiliates or Associates has the right to acquire within 60 days (other than (1) customary agreements with and between underwriters and banking group or selling group members with respect to a distribution to the public or pursuant to a private placement of securities; or (2) pursuant to a pledge of securities in the ordinary course of business).

A Person is also deemed to "Beneficially Own" any securities that are Beneficially Owned (as described above) by any other Person with which the Person is acting jointly or in concert (a "Joint Actor"). Generally, a Person is a Joint Actor with any Person who (i) is a party to an agreement, arrangement or understanding with the first Person or an Associate or Affiliate thereof to acquire or offer to acquire Common Shares or (ii) is an Associate or Affiliate of the first Person or any Person referred to in (i).

Institutional Shareholder Exemptions from Beneficial Ownership

The definition of "Beneficial Ownership" contains several exclusions whereby a Person is not considered to "Beneficially Own" a security. There are exemptions from the deemed "Beneficial Ownership" provisions for institutional shareholders acting in the ordinary course of business. These exemptions apply to (i) an investment manager ("Investment Manager") which holds securities in the ordinary course of business in the performance of its duties for the account of any other Person (a "Client"), including, the acquisition or holding of securities for non-discretionary accounts held on behalf of a Client by a broker or dealer registered under applicable securities laws; (ii) a licensed trust company ("Trust Company") acting as trustee or administrator or in a similar capacity in relation to the estates of deceased or incompetent persons (each an "Estate Account") or in relation to other accounts (each an "Other Account") and which holds such security in the ordinary course of its duties for such accounts; (iii) the administrator or the trustee (a "Plan Trustee") of one or more pension funds or plans (a "Plan") registered under applicable law; (iv) a Person who is a Plan or is a Person established by statute (the "Statutory Body"), and its ordinary business or activity includes the management of investment funds for employee benefit plans, pension plans, insurance plans, or various

A-3

public bodies; (v) a Crown agent or agency; (iv) a manager or trustee ("Manager") of a mutual fund ("Mutual Fund") that is registered or qualified to issue its securities to investors under the securities laws of any province of Canada or the laws of the United States of America or is a Mutual Fund. The foregoing exemptions only apply so long as the Investment Manager, Trust Company, Plan Trustee, Plan, Statutory Body, Crown agent or agency, Manager or Mutual Fund is not then making or has not then announced an intention to make a Take-over Bid, other than an Offer to Acquire Common Shares or other securities pursuant to a distribution by the Corporation or by means of ordinary market transactions.

A Person will not be deemed to "Beneficially Own" a security solely because (i) the Person is a Client of the same Investment Manager, an Estate Account or an Other Account of the same Trust Company, or Plan with the same Plan Trustee as another Person or Plan on whose account the Investment Manager, Trust Company or Plan Trustee, as the case may be, holds such security; or (ii) the Person is a Client of an Investment Manager, Estate Account, Other Account or Plan, and the security is owned at law or in equity by the Investment Manager, Trust Company or Plan Trustee, as the case may be.

Exemption for Permitted Lock-up Agreement

Under the Amended Rights Plan, a Person will not be deemed to "Beneficially Own" any security solely because the holder of such security has agreed to deposit or tender such security, pursuant to a Permitted Lock-up Agreement, to a Take-over Bid made by such Person or such Person's Affiliates or Associates or a Joint Actor, or such security has been deposited or tendered pursuant to a Take-over Bid made by such Person or such Person's Affiliates, Associates or Joint Actors until the earliest time at which any such tendered security is accepted unconditionally for payment or is taken up or paid for.

A Permitted Lock-up Agreement is essentially an agreement between a Person and one or more holders of Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities (the terms of which are publicly disclosed and available to the public within the time frames set forth in the definition of Permitted Lockup Agreement) pursuant to which each Locked-up Person agrees to deposit or tender Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities to the Lock-up Bid and which further (i) permits the Locked-up Person to withdraw its Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities in order to deposit or tender the Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities to another Take-over Bid or support another transaction at a price or value that exceeds the price under the Lock-Up Bid; or (ii) permits the Locked-up Person to withdraw its Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities in order to deposit or tender the Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities to another Take-over Bid or support another transaction at an offering price that exceeds the offering price in the Lock-up Bid by as much as or more than a Specified Amount and that does not provide for a Specified Amount greater than 7% of the offering price in the Lock-up Bid. The Amended Rights Plan therefore requires that a Person making a Take-Over Bid structure any lock-up agreement so as to provide reasonable flexibility to the shareholder in order to avoid being deemed the Beneficial Owner of the Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities subject to the lock-up agreement and potentially triggering the provisions of the Amended Rights Plan.

A Permitted Lock-up Agreement may contain a right of first refusal or require a period of delay to give the Person who made the Lock-up Bid an opportunity to match a higher price in another Take-Over Bid or other similar limitation on a Locked-up Person's right to withdraw Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities so long as the limitation does not preclude the exercise by the Locked-up Person of the right to withdraw Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities during the period of the other Take-Over Bid or transaction. Finally, under a Permitted Lock-up Agreement, no "break up" fees, "top up" fees, penalties, expenses or other

A-4

amounts that exceed in aggregate the greater of (i) 2.5% of the price or value of the consideration payable under the Lock-up Bid; and (ii) 50% of the amount by which the price or value of the consideration received by a Locked-up Person under another Take-Over Bid or transaction exceeds what such Locked-up Person would have received under the Lock-up Bid; can be payable by such Locked-up Person if the Locked-up Person fails to deposit or tender Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities to the Lock-up Bid or withdraws Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities previously tendered thereto in order to deposit such Common Shares and/or Convertible Securities to another Take-Over Bid or support another transaction.

(f) Flip-in Event

A Flip-in Event occurs when any Person becomes an Acquiring Person. In the event that, prior to the Expiration Time, a Flip-in Event which has not been waived by the Board occurs (see "Redemption, Waiver and Termination"), each Right (except for Rights Beneficially Owned or which may thereafter be Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person or a Joint Actor (or a transferee of any such Person), which Rights will become null and void) shall constitute the right to purchase from the Corporation, upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of the Amended Rights Plan, that number of Common Shares having an aggregate Market Price on the date of the Flip-in Event equal to twice the Exercise Price, for the Exercise Price (such Right being subject to anti-dilution adjustments). For example, if at the time of the Flip-in Event the Exercise Price is $75 and the Market Price of the Common Shares is $30, the holder of each Right would be entitled to purchase Common Shares having an aggregate Market Price of $150 (that is, five Common Shares) for $75 (that is, a 50% discount from the Market Price).

(g)Permitted Bid and Competing Permitted Bid

A Permitted Bid is a Take-over Bid made by way of a Take-over Bid circular and which complies with the following additional provisions:

(i)

the Take-over Bid is made to all holders of record of Common Shares, other than the Offeror;

(ii)

the Take-over Bid contains irrevocable and unqualified conditions that:

no Common Shares shall be taken up or paid for pursuant to the Take-over Bid prior to the close of business on the date that is no earlier than the earlier of (1) the date 105 days following the date of the Take-over Bid and (2) the last day of the initial deposit period that the Offeror must allow securities to be deposited under the Take-over Bid pursuant to National Instrument 62-104;

unless the Take-over Bid is withdrawn, Common Shares may be deposited pursuant to the Takeover Bid at any time prior to the close of business on the date of first take-up or payment for Common Shares and all Common Shares deposited pursuant to the Take-over Bid may be withdrawn at any time prior to the close of business on such date;

more than 50% of the outstanding Common Shares held by Independent Shareholders must be deposited to the Take-over Bid and not withdrawn at the close of business on the date of first take-up or payment for Common Shares; and

A-5

in the event that more than 50% of the then outstanding Common Shares held by Independent Shareholders have been deposited to the Take-over Bid and not withdrawn as at the date of first take-up or payment for Common Shares under the Take-over Bid, the Offeror will make a public announcement of that fact and the Take-over Bid will remain open for deposits and tenders of Common Shares for not less than 10 Business Days from the date of such public announcement.

A Competing Permitted Bid is a Take-over Bid that is made after a Permitted Bid has been made but prior to its expiry and that satisfies all the requirements of a Permitted Bid as described above, except that a Competing Permitted Bid is not necessarily required to remain open for 105 days so long as it is open until the close of business on the date that is the last day of the initial deposit period that the Offeror must allow securities to be deposited under the Take-over Bid pursuant to National Instrument 62-104.

(h)Redemption, Waiver and Termination

(i)

Redemption of Rights on Approval of Holders of Common Shares and Rights. The Board acting in good faith may, after having obtained the prior approval of the holders of Common Shares or Rights, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, elect to redeem all but not less than all of the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.000001 per Right, appropriately adjusted for anti-dilution as provided in the Amended Rights Plan Agreement (the "Redemption Price").

(ii)

Waiver of Inadvertent Acquisition. The Board acting in good faith may waive or agree to waive the application of the Amended Rights Plan in respect of the occurrence of any Flip-in Event if (i) the Board has determined that a Person became an Acquiring Person under the Amended Rights Plan by inadvertence and without any intent or knowledge that it would become an Acquiring Person; and (ii) the Acquiring Person has reduced its Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares such that at the time of waiver the Person is no longer an Acquiring Person.

(iii)

Deemed Redemption. In the event that a Person who has made a Permitted Bid or a Take-over Bid in respect of which the Board has waived or has deemed to have waived the application of the Amended Rights Plan consummates the acquisition of the Common Shares, the Board shall be deemed to have elected to redeem the Rights for the Redemption Price.

(iv)

Discretionary Waiver with Mandatory Waiver of Concurrent Bids. The Board acting in good faith may, prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event as to which the Amended Rights Plan has not been waived under the applicable clause, upon prior written notice to the Rights Agent, waive the application of the Amended Rights Plan to a Flip-in Event that may occur by reason of a Take-over Bid made by means of a Take-over Bid circular to all holders of record of Common Shares. However, if the Board waives the application of the Amended Rights Plan, the Board shall be deemed to have waived the application of the Amended Rights Plan in respect of any other Flip-in Event occurring by reason of such a Take-over Bid made prior to the expiry of a bid for which a waiver is, or is deemed to have been, granted.

A-6

(v)

Discretionary Waiver respecting Acquisition not by Take-over Bid Circular. The Board acting in good faith may, with the prior consent of the holders of Common Shares, determine, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event as to which the application of the Amended Rights Plan has not been waived, if such Flip-in Event would occur by reason of an acquisition of Common Shares otherwise than pursuant to a Take-over Bid made by means of a Take-over Bid circular to holders of Common Shares and otherwise than by inadvertence when such inadvertent Acquiring Person has then reduced its holdings to below 20%, to waive the application of the Amended Rights Plan to such Flip-in Event. However, if the Board waives the application of the Amended Rights Plan, the Board shall extend the Separation Time to a date subsequent to and not more than 10 Business Days following the meeting of shareholders called to approve such a waiver.

(vi)

Redemption of Rights on Withdrawal or Termination of Bid. Where a Take-over Bid that is not a Permitted Bid is withdrawn or otherwise terminated after the Separation Time and prior to the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, the Board may elect to redeem all the outstanding Rights at the Redemption Price.

If the Board is deemed to have elected or elects to redeem the Rights as described above, the right to exercise the Rights will thereupon, without further action and without notice, terminate and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights is to receive the Redemption Price. Within 10 Business Days of any such election or deemed election to redeem the Rights, the Corporation will notify the holders of the Common Shares or, after the Separation Time, the holders of the Rights.

(i)Anti-Dilution Adjustments

The Exercise Price of a Right, the number and kind of securities subject to purchase upon exercise of a Right, and the number of Rights outstanding, will be adjusted in certain events, including:

(a)

if there is a dividend payable in Common Shares or Convertible Securities (other than pursuant to any optional stock dividend program, divided reinvestment plan or a dividend payable in Common Shares in lieu of a regular periodic cash dividend) on the Common Shares,

(b)

a subdivision or consolidation of the Common Shares,

(c)

an issuance of Common Shares or Convertible Securities in respect of, in lieu of or in exchange for Common Shares in a reclassification, amalgamation, merger, statutory arrangement or consolidation; or

(d)

if the Corporation fixes a record date for the distribution to all holders of Common Shares of certain rights or warrants to acquire Common Shares or Convertible Securities, or for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Shares of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than regular periodic cash dividend or a dividend payable in Common Shares) or rights or warrants.

(j)Supplements and Amendments

The Corporation may make amendments to correct any clerical or typographical error or which are necessary to maintain the validity of the Amended Rights Plan Agreement as a

A-7

result of any change in any applicable legislation, rules or regulation. Any changes made to maintain the validity of the Amended Rights Plan shall be subject to subsequent confirmation by the holders of the Common Shares or, after the Separation Time, the holders of the Rights.

Subject to the above exceptions, any amendment, variation or deletion of or from the Amended Rights Plan Agreement and the Rights is subject to the prior approval of the holders of Common Shares, or, after the Separation Time, the holders of the Rights.

Under the Amended Rights Plan Agreement, such required approval of the holders of Common Shares regarding any such amendment, variation or deletion shall be deemed to have been given if authorized by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by Independent Shareholders at a meeting of the holders of Common Shares in compliance with the Amended Rights Plan Agreement.

Under the Amended Rights Plan Agreement, such required approval of the holders of Rights regarding any such amendment, variation or deletion shall be deemed to have been given if authorized by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of Rights at a meeting of such holders in compliance with the Amended Rights Plan Agreement.

SCHEDULE "C"

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES - ADJUSTED EBITDA

We prepare and release quarterly unaudited and annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We also disclose and discuss certain non-GAAP financial information, used to evaluate our performance as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. We believe that current shareholders and potential investors in our company use non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues, in making investment decisions about our company and measuring our operational results.

The term "Adjusted EBITDA" refers to a financial measure that we define as earnings before certain charges that management considers to be non-operating expenses and which consist of interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation (for which we include related fees and taxes) and other charges (for which we include restructuring charges and acquisition-related expenses). Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues divides Adjusted EBITDA for a period by the revenues for the corresponding period and expresses the quotient as a percentage.

Management considers these non-operating expenses to be outside the scope of Descartes' ongoing operations and the related expenses are not used by management to measure operations. Accordingly, these expenses are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, which we reference to both measure our operations and as a basis of comparison of our operations from period-to-period. Management believes that investors and financial analysts measure our business on the same basis, and we are providing the Adjusted EBITDA financial metric to assist in this evaluation and to provide a higher level of transparency into how we measure our own business. However, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues should not be construed as a substitute for net income determined in accordance with GAAP or other non-GAAP measures that may be used by other companies, such as EBITDA. The use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues does have limitations. In particular, we have completed seven acquisitions since the beginning of fiscal 2022 and may complete additional acquisitions in the future that will result in acquisition-related expenses and restructuring charges. As these acquisition-related expenses and restructuring charges may continue as we pursue our consolidation strategy, some investors may consider these charges and expenses as a recurring part of operations rather than expenses that are not part of operations.

The table below reconciles Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues to net income reported in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations for Q4FY23, Q3FY23, Q2FY23 and Q1FY23, which we believe is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
