Donald Streuber

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Annual General and Special Meeting of the shareholders of Exchange Income Corporation. It's great to see so many here, particularly those who have been shareholders since the establishment of our company. My name is Don Streuber and as Director and Chair of the Board of Directors, I will act as Chair of this meeting.

Before we begin, I would also like to take a moment to review some important safety information. Emergency exits, please familiarize yourself with the nearest emergency exit. The primary exits are in the north corner not over the wings, but in the north corner or the door that you entered in from over there. In the event of an evacuation, please proceed calmly to the nearest exit and move to the designated muster point outside. The muster point is on the corner of Ferry Road.

Fire alarms and equipment. If the fire alarm sounds, we will stop the meeting immediately and evacuate the building. Fire extinguishers are located at every exit and only personnel trained should use them. No smoking or vaping are permitted indoors at any time. If you notice any hazards or unsafe conditions, please report them right away to any staff member. Your safety is our priority. Thank you for your attention and cooperation and do not look for an oxygen mask to drop from the ceiling.

Before we begin, I would like to also take the time to acknowledge that this meeting is taking place on the indigenous ancestral lands on Treaty 1
