(“Purchaser”), G. Lamonde Investissements Financiers Inc., 9356-8988 Québec Inc., Germain Lamonde, and Philippe Morin (each, a “Filing Person,” and collectively, the “Filing Persons”) with respect to the plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) contemplated by an arrangement agreement among EXFO, Purchaser and G. Lamonde Investissements Financiers Inc., dated as of June 7, 2021 (as amended by the Amending Agreement dated July 7, 2021 and the Second Amending Agreement dated July 12, 2021, the “Arrangement Agreement”) pursuant to which Purchaser will acquire all of the outstanding subordinate voting shares of EXFO (the “Subordinate Voting Shares”) not already owned, directly or indirectly, by G. Lamonde Investissements Financiers Inc. 9356-8988 Québec Inc., Germain Lamonde, and Philippe Morin (to the extent an agreement is reached between the Purchaser or any of its affiliates and Philippe Morin such that Philippe Morin will, effective upon closing of the transaction, become a shareholder of the Purchaser) for the per Subordinate Voting Share consideration of $6.00 and EXFO will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser. A copy of the Plan of Arrangement is included as Appendix B to the Management Proxy Circular, which is attached as Exhibit (a)(2)(i) hereto (the “Circular”).

The Circular is being provided to EXFO’s shareholders pursuant to applicable Canadian law.

If the Arrangement Resolution is approved by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders virtually present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, voting as a single class (each shareholder being entitled to one vote per Subordinate Voting Share and the holders of multiple voting shares being entitled to ten votes per multiple voting share), and a majority of the votes cast by the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares (other than Subordinate Voting Shares controlled by the Filing Persons) virtually present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, the transaction is expected to close on August 24, 2021.
