Pursuant to the terms of the LOI and pending TSXV acceptance, UPI and Xemoto intend to enter into a loan agreement whereby UPI will advance $250,000 to Xemoto (the "Principal Sum"). The maturity date of the loan shall be the earlier of (i) the closing of the Proposed Transaction, (ii) the termination of the LOI by either party or expiry of the LOI without having executed a Definitive Agreement in respect of the Proposed Transaction, or (iii) six months from the advance of the loan (the "Maturity Date").

Xemoto shall pay 0% interest on the Principal Sum outstanding from time to time from the date the loan agreement is entered into, including the Maturity Date.

UPI shall be granted a general security agreement from Xemoto in favour of UPI, constituting a lien on all of the present and future property of Xemoto.

It is currently anticipated that UPI will acquire Xemoto by way of a three-cornered amalgamation. The final structure of the Proposed Transaction is subject to the receipt of tax, corporate and securities law advice for both UPI and Xemoto. Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the issuer resulting from the Proposed Transaction (the "Resulting Issuer") will carry on the business of Xemoto.

Additionally, separate and apart from the Proposed Transaction, Xemoto intends to complete an equity financing (the "Equity Financing") to raise proceeds of up to $250,000, on terms to be determined in the context of the market and/or a debt financing (the "Debt Financing") to raise gross proceeds of up to $250,000 ($100,00 of which has already been raised) of 10% unsecured convertible debentures which debentures would be convertible into up to 10,000,000 Xemoto Shares.

The Xemoto Securities consist of (i) 129,741,407 common shares in the capital of Xemoto ("Xemoto Shares"); (ii) common share purchase warrants to acquire 25,978,123 Xemoto Shares; (iii) stock options to acquire up to 3,600,000 Xemoto Shares; (iv) restricted share units issuable into an aggregate of 3,200,000 Xemoto Shares; (v) broker warrants to acquire up to 2,119,200 Xemoto Shares (which may be issued after the date hereof and before the completion of the Proposed Transaction); (vi) up to an additional 25,000,000 Xemoto Shares by way of the Equity Financing to be completed prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction; (vii) up to $250,000 (of which, $100,000 has already been issued) in principal amount of convertible debentures of Xemoto ("Xemoto Debentures"), which may be convertible into an aggregate of up to 10,000,000 Xemoto Shares by way of the Debt Financing prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction; (viii) up to 8,888,889 additional Xemoto stock options, and (ix) up to 16,000,000 Xemoto Shares issuable in connection with a potential acquisition transaction by Xemoto prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction.

It is expected that, upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will have approximately 88,952,478 shares issued and outstanding (each, a "Resulting Issuer Share") on an undiluted basis. Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, it is expected that: (i) the former shareholders of Xemoto will hold approximately 44.7% of the Resulting Issuer Shares; and (ii) the former shareholders of UPI will hold approximately 55.3% of the Resulting Issuer Shares, on an undiluted basis.
