SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR NEXT YEAR’S ANNUAL MEETING

The BCBCA permits certain eligible shareholders of the Corporation to submit shareholder proposals, including shareholder proposals for director nominees, to the Corporation, which proposals may be included in a management proxy circular relating to an annual meeting of shareholders. Shareholders having proposals that they desire to present at the next year’s annual meeting of shareholders should, if they desire that such proposals be included in the Corporation’s proxy circular relating to such meeting, submit such proposals in time to be received by Fennec not later than December 26, 2025, which is 120 days before the date on which the Corporation released its proxy statement to shareholders in connection with the previous year's annual meeting. If the next year’s annual meeting of shareholders is changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before the Corporation begins to print and send its proxy materials. To be so included, all such submissions must comply with the requirements of the SEC’s Rule 14a-8 and you should pay close attention to that rule. Proposals should be mailed to the Secretary at Fennec Pharmaceuticals Inc., PO Box 13628, 68 TW Alexander Drive, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709.

Proxies for the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders will confer discretionary authority to vote with respect to all proposals of which the Corporation does not receive proper notice by, March 13, 2026, which is 45 days before the first anniversary of the date on which the Corporation first sent its proxy materials for the prior year’s annual meeting of shareholders. If the date of the meeting has changed more than 30 days from the prior year, then notice must not have been received a reasonable time before the registrant sends its proxy materials for the current year.

The Corporation’s Articles do not provide a method for a shareholder to submit a director nomination. Shareholders wishing to include director nominees in the Corporation’s proxy circular for the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders must provide written notice to the Secretary by December 26, 2025; provided, however, that if the date of the 2026 annual meeting
