 of the Stockholders and until their respective successors are elected
and qualified. Our Board has nominated: (i) David Worner; (ii) Mark Thoenes; (iii) Ashesh Modi; and (iv) Ketankumar Patel and our management
has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. Their biographies are provided at pages 8 to 9. The biographies of
each of the nominees contains information regarding the person’s service as a director, business experience, public-company director
positions held currently or at any time during the last five years, information regarding involvement in certain legal or administrative
proceedings, if applicable, and the experiences, qualifications, attributes or skills that caused Board to determine that the person should
serve as a director for the Company. In addition to the information presented above regarding each nominee’s specific experience,
qualifications, attributes and skills that led our Board to the conclusion that he or she should serve as a director, we also believe
that all of our director nominees have a reputation for integrity, honesty and adherence to high ethical standards. They each have demonstrated
business acumen and an ability to exercise sound judgment, as well as a commitment of service to Kaival and our Board. Finally, we value
their significant experience on other public company boards of directors and board committees.

A nominee will be elected as a director if he receives
a plurality of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting. This means that the nominees for election as director who
receive the highest number of affirmative votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected as director. Withheld votes and broker non-votes
will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will
vote the proxies received by them “FOR” each of the nominees named above. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election
as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of
a substitute nominee proposed by our Board.

<div align='center'>The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of all of these nominees.
