| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. As a condition of the February 26, 2015 closing of the acquisition (the "Acquisition Transaction") by the Issuer of Bionik Laboratories Inc., a company existing under the laws of Canada ("Bionik Canada"), Bionik Canada created a new class of exchangeable shares (the "Exchangeable Shares"), which were issued to the then-existing common shareholders of Bionik Canada, including the Reporting Person, in exchange for all of their outstanding common shares. |
| 2. The Exchangeable Shares are intended to have, to the extent practicable, the same economic, voting and other rights of the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Issuer (the "Common Stock"), and have the following attributes, among others: (a) be, as nearly as practicable, the economic equivalent of the Common Stock as of the consummation of the Acquisition Transaction; (b) have dividend entitlements and other attributes corresponding to the Common Stock; (c) be exchangeable, at each holder's option, for Common Stock on a one-for-one basis; and (d) upon the direction of the board of directors of the Issuer, be exchanged for Common Stock on the 10 year anniversary of the Acquisition Transaction, subject to applicable law, unless exchanged earlier upon the occurrence of certain events. |
| 3. The Reporting Person directly owns such Exchangeable Shares. The Reporting Person is entitled to vote the Exchangeable Shares as if the Reporting Person was a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock, through a single share of The Special Voting Preferred Stock of the Issuer, held in trust by Computershare Trust Company of Canada. |
