On February 26, 2019, Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) and Novo Healthnet Limited (“NHL”) entered into a Software License Agreement (the “Cloud DX License”) with Cloud DX Inc. (“Cloud DX”) pursuant to which Cloud DX agreed to sell, and NHL agreed to purchase, a fully paid up, perpetual license, with 5-year conditional exclusivity, for the Cloud DX Bundled Pulsewave PAD-1A USB Blood Pressure Device, up-to-date product releases and Licensed Software Products (the “Licensed Software”) to include the:
| ● | Cloud DX Connected Health web portal for clinical users, |
| ● | Cloud DX Connected Health mobile app, |

Pursuant to the terms of the Cloud DX License, Cloud DX also agreed to sell, and NHL agreed to purchase, 4,000 fully functional Pulsewave PAD 1A USB blood pressure monitor devices bundled with the perpetual license discussed above (the “Bundled Devices”).

| b) | During the 5-year initial period, NHL is expected to sell a minimum of 4,000 Bundled Devices and to sell a minimum of 200 franchises. |
| c) | In Year 6 and beyond, additional 1-year periods of conditional exclusivity will be granted provided that NHL sales in the preceding 12 months are equal to total sales achieved in Year 5. |
| d) | If the minimums set forth in item (b) above are not met, continued exclusivity will require the payment of an additional fee, to be negotiated in good faith between the parties. |
| e) | 2-Way Exclusivity – NHL agrees not to replace the Software and Bundled Devices or offer a competitive offering as long as NHL is representing the Cloud DX product line. |
