Upon submission by a Beneficiary (or its designee) named in the List prepared in connection with the relevant meeting of identification satisfactory to the Trustee’s representative, and at the Beneficiary’s request, such representative shall sign and deliver to such Beneficiary (or its designee) a proxy to exercise personally the Beneficiary Votes as to which such Beneficiary is otherwise entitled hereunder to direct the vote, if such Beneficiary either (i) has not previously given the Trustee instructions pursuant to Section 4.3 in respect of such meeting or (ii) submits to such representative written revocation of any such previous instructions. At such meeting, the Beneficiary (or its designee) exercising such Beneficiary Votes in accordance with such proxy shall have the same rights in respect of such Beneficiary Votes as the Trustee to speak at the meeting in respect of any matter, question, proposal or proposition, to vote by way of ballot at the meeting in respect of any matter, question, proposal or proposition, and to vote at such meeting by way of a show of hands in respect of any matter, question, proposal or proposition.

4.9 Distribution of Written Materials. Any written materials distributed by the Trustee to the Beneficiaries pursuant to this Agreement shall be sent by mail (or otherwise communicated in the same manner as D-Wave Quantum utilizes in communications to holders of D-Wave Quantum Shares, subject to applicable regulatory requirements and to the Trustee being advised in writing of such manner of communications and provided that such manner of communications is reasonably available to the Trustee) to each Beneficiary at its address as shown on the register of holders of Exchangeable Shares maintained by the registrar. In connection with each such distribution, ExchangeCo shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee for purposes of communication, on a timely basis and without charge or other expense, a current List, and upon the request of the Trustee, mailing labels to enable the Trustee to carry out its duties under this Agreement. ExchangeCo’s obligations under this Section 4.9 shall be deemed satisfied to the extent D-Wave Quantum exercises its option to perform the duties of the Trustee to deliver copies of materials to each Beneficiary and ExchangeCo provides the required information and materials to D-Wave Quantum.

4.10 Termination of Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided in the Exchangeable Share Provisions, all of the rights of a Beneficiary with respect to the Beneficiary Votes exercisable in respect of the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary, including the right to instruct the Trustee as to the voting of or to vote personally such Beneficiary Votes, shall lapse and be deemed to be surrendered by the Beneficiary to D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, and such Beneficiary Votes and the Voting Rights represented thereby shall cease immediately upon:

(a)

the delivery by such holder to the Trustee of the certificates (if any) representing such Exchangeable Shares and other required documentation in connection with the exercise by the Beneficiary of the Exchange Right;

(b)

the occurrence of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for D-Wave Quantum Shares, as specified in Article 5 (unless D-Wave Quantum shall not have

delivered the requisite D-Wave Quantum Shares deliverable in exchange therefor to the Trustee pending delivery to the Beneficiaries);

(c)

the retraction or redemption of Exchangeable Shares pursuant to Section 27.6 or 27.7 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions;

(d)

the effective date of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of ExchangeCo or any other distribution of the assets of ExchangeCo among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs pursuant to Section 27.5 of the Exchangeable Share Provisions; or

(e)

upon the purchase of Exchangeable Shares from the holder thereof by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, pursuant to the exercise by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo of the Liquidation Call Right, the Redemption Call Right, the Change of Law Call Right or the Retraction Call Right (unless, in any case, D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, shall not have delivered the requisite consideration deliverable in exchange therefor).

4.11 Disclosure of Interest in Exchangeable Shares. The Trustee or ExchangeCo shall be entitled to require any Beneficiary or any person whom the Trustee or ExchangeCo, as the case may be, knows or has reasonable cause to believe holds any interest whatsoever in an Exchangeable Share to (a) confirm that fact, or (b) give such details as to whom has an interest in such Exchangeable Share, in each case as would be required (if the Exchangeable Shares were a class of “equity securities” of ExchangeCo) under Section 5.2 of National Instrument 62-104 Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids or as would be required under the articles of D-Wave Quantum or any laws or regulations, or pursuant to the rules or regulations of any regulatory agency, if and only to the extent that the Exchangeable Shares (as multiplied by the Exchangeable Share Exchange Ratio) were D-Wave Quantum Shares. If a Beneficiary does not provide the information required to be provided by such Beneficiary pursuant to this Section 4.11, the board of directors of D-Wave Quantum may take any action permitted under the articles or bylaws of D-Wave Quantum or any laws or regulations, or pursuant to the rules or regulations of any regulatory agency, with respect to the Voting Rights relating to the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary as if, and only to that the extent that, the Exchangeable Shares (as multiplied by the Exchangeable Share Exchange Ratio) were D-Wave Quantum Shares.

ARTICLE 5

EXCHANGE AND AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE

5.1 Grant and Ownership of the Exchange Right and Automatic Exchange Right.

(1)

D-Wave Quantum and, in the case of the Exchange Right, CallCo hereby grant to the Trustee as trustee for and on behalf of, and for the use and benefit of, the Beneficiaries (i) the right (the “Exchange Right”), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Insolvency Event, to require CallCo or D-Wave Quantum (provided that D-Wave Quantum may, in its sole discretion, cause CallCo to purchase in its stead to the extent permitted by applicable law) to purchase from each or any Beneficiary all or any part of the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary, all in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) the Automatic Exchange Right. Each of D-Wave Quantum and CallCo hereby acknowledge receipt from the Trustee as trustee for and on behalf of the Beneficiaries of good and valuable consideration (and the adequacy thereof) for the grant

of the Exchange Right and the Automatic Exchange Right by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, to the Trustee.

(2)

During the term of the Trust, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall possess and be vested with full legal ownership of the Exchange Right and the Automatic Exchange Right and shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights and powers of an owner with respect to the Exchange Right and the Automatic Exchange Right, provided that the Trustee shall:

(a)

hold the Exchange Right and the Automatic Exchange Right and the legal title thereto as trustee solely for the use and benefit of the Beneficiaries in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and

(b)

except as specifically authorized by this Agreement, have no power or authority to exercise or otherwise deal in or with the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Right, and the Trustee shall not exercise any such rights for any purpose other than the purposes for which the Trust is created pursuant to this Agreement.

5.2 Legended Non-transferable Acknowledgements. ExchangeCo shall cause each non-transferrable acknowledgement representing Exchangeable Shares to bear the following legend notifying the Beneficiary in respect of the Exchangeable Shares represented by such non-transferrable acknowledgement of (a) their or its right to instruct the Trustee with respect to the exercise of the Exchange Right in respect of the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary and (b) the Automatic Exchange Right:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS NON-TRANSFERRABLE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A VOTING AND EXCHANGE TRUST AGREEMENT WHICH PROVIDES FOR, AMONG OTHER THINGS, (A) THE RIGHT OF THE HOLDER TO INSTRUCT THE TRUSTEE IN RESPECT OF THE EXERCISE OF THE EXCHANGE RIGHT, AND (B) AN AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE RIGHT.

5.3 General Exercise of Exchange Right. The Exchange Right shall be and remain vested in and exercisable by the Trustee. Subject to Section 7.15, the Trustee shall exercise the Exchange Right only on the basis of instructions received pursuant to this Article 5 from Beneficiaries entitled to instruct the Trustee as to the exercise thereof. To the extent that no instructions are received from any Beneficiary with respect to the Exchange Right, the Trustee shall not exercise or permit the exercise of the Exchange Right.

5.4 Purchase Price. The purchase price payable by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, for each Exchangeable Share to be purchased by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right shall be an amount per share equal to the Exchangeable Share Price on the last Business Day prior to the day of the closing of the purchase and sale of such Exchangeable Share pursuant to such exercise of the Exchange Right, which price may be satisfied only by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, delivering or causing to be delivered to the Trustee, on behalf of the relevant Beneficiary, the Exchangeable Share Consideration representing such Exchangeable Share Price. Upon payment by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, of the Exchangeable Share Price, the relevant Beneficiary shall cease to have any right to be paid any amount in respect of declared and unpaid dividends on each such Exchangeable Share by ExchangeCo and ExchangeCo shall cease to be obligated to pay any amount in respect of such dividends.

5.5 Exercise Instructions. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, a Beneficiary shall be entitled upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Insolvency Event, to instruct the Trustee to exercise the Exchange Right with respect to all or any part of the Exchangeable Shares registered in the name of such Beneficiary. In order to cause the Trustee to exercise the Exchange Right with respect to all or any part of the Exchangeable Shares registered in the name of a Beneficiary, such Beneficiary shall deliver to the Trustee, in person or by certified or registered mail, at its principal office in Vancouver, British Columbia or at such other place as the Trustee may from time to time designate by written notice to the Beneficiaries, the certificates (if any) representing the Exchangeable Shares which such Beneficiary desires D-Wave Quantum or CallCo to purchase, duly endorsed in blank for transfer, and accompanied by such other documents and instruments as may be required to effect a transfer of the Exchangeable Shares under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), the articles of ExchangeCo and such additional documents and instruments as D-Wave Quantum, ExchangeCo or the Trustee may reasonably require together with:

(a)

a duly completed form of notice of exercise of the Exchange Right, contained on the reverse of or attached to the Exchangeable Share non-transferable acknowledgements, stating (i) that the Beneficiary thereby instructs the Trustee to exercise the Exchange Right so as to require D-Wave Quantum or CallCo to purchase from the Beneficiary the number of Exchangeable Shares specified therein, (ii) that such Beneficiary has good title to and owns all such Exchangeable Shares to be acquired by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests and encumbrances, and (iii) the names in which the D-Wave Quantum Shares issuable in connection with the exercise of the Exchange Right are to be issued; and

(b)

payment (or evidence satisfactory to D-Wave Quantum, ExchangeCo and the Trustee of payment) of the taxes (if any) payable as contemplated by Section 5.8 of this Agreement;

provided that if only a part of the Exchangeable Shares represented by any non-transferable acknowledgement are to be purchased by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right, a new non-transferable acknowledgement for the balance of such Exchangeable Shares shall be issued to the holder at the expense of ExchangeCo.

5.6 Delivery of D-Wave Quantum Shares; Effect of Exercise. Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of the certificates representing the Exchangeable Shares (if any) which a Beneficiary desires D-Wave Quantum or CallCo to purchase pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right, together with a notice of exercise and such other documents and instruments specified by Section 5.5, the Trustee shall notify D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo of its receipt of the same, which notice to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall constitute exercise of the Exchange Right by the Trustee on behalf of such Beneficiary in respect of such Exchangeable Shares, and D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, shall promptly thereafter deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for delivery to such Beneficiary (or to such other persons, if any, properly designated by such Beneficiary) the Exchangeable Share Consideration deliverable in connection with such exercise of the Exchange Right; provided, however, that no such delivery shall be made unless and until the Beneficiary requesting the same shall have paid (or provided evidence satisfactory to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo and the Trustee of the payment of) the taxes (if any) payable as contemplated by Section 5.8 of this Agreement. Immediately upon the giving of notice by the Trustee to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo of any exercise of the Exchange Right, as provided in this

Section 5.6, the closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by the Exchange Right shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Beneficiary in respect of such Exchangeable Shares shall be deemed to have transferred to D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, all of such Beneficiary’s right, title and interest in and to such Exchangeable Shares and in the related interest in the Trust Estate and shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a holder in respect thereof, other than the right to receive the total Exchangeable Share Consideration in respect of such Exchangeable Shares, unless such Exchangeable Share Consideration is not delivered by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, to the Trustee for delivery to such Beneficiary (or to such other person, if any, properly designated by such Beneficiary) within five Business Days of the date of the giving of such notice by the Trustee, in which case the rights of the Beneficiary shall remain unaffected until such Exchangeable Share Consideration is so delivered. Upon delivery of such Exchangeable Share Consideration to the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly deliver such Exchangeable Share Consideration to such Beneficiary (or to such other person, if any, properly designated by such Beneficiary). Concurrently with the closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by such exercise of the Exchange Right, the Beneficiary shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the D-Wave Quantum Shares delivered to it pursuant to such exercise of the Exchange Right.

5.7 Exercise of Exchange Right Subsequent to Retraction. In the event that a Beneficiary has exercised its retraction right under Section 27.6(1) of the Exchangeable Share Provisions to require ExchangeCo to redeem any or all of the Exchangeable Shares held by the Beneficiary (the “Retracted Shares”) and is notified by ExchangeCo pursuant to Section 27.6(1)(c) of the Exchangeable Share Provisions that ExchangeCo will not be permitted as a result of solvency requirements of applicable law to redeem all such Retracted Shares, subject to receipt by the Trustee of written notice to that effect from ExchangeCo, and provided that neither D-Wave Quantum nor CallCo shall have exercised its Retraction Call Right with respect to the Retracted Shares and that the Beneficiary shall not have revoked the retraction request delivered by the Beneficiary to ExchangeCo pursuant to Section 27.6(1)(d) of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, the retraction request will constitute and will be deemed to constitute notice from the Beneficiary to the Trustee instructing the Trustee to exercise the Exchange Right with respect to those Retracted Shares that ExchangeCo is unable to redeem. In any such event, ExchangeCo hereby agrees with the Trustee, and in favour of the Beneficiary, promptly to notify the Trustee of such prohibition against ExchangeCo and to forward or cause to be forwarded to the Trustee all relevant materials delivered by the Beneficiary to ExchangeCo or to the Transfer Agent in connection with such proposed redemption of the Retracted Shares and the Trustee will thereupon exercise the Exchange Right with respect to the Retracted Shares that ExchangeCo is not permitted to redeem and will require D-Wave Quantum or, at the option of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, to purchase such shares in accordance with the provisions of this Article 5.

5.8 Stamp or Other Transfer Taxes. Upon any sale or transfer of Exchangeable Shares to D-Wave Quantum or CallCo pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Right, the D-Wave Quantum Shares to be delivered in connection with the payment of the purchase price therefor shall be issued in the name of the Beneficiary in respect of the Exchangeable Shares so sold or transferred or in such names as such Beneficiary may otherwise direct in writing without charge to the holder of the Exchangeable Shares so sold or transferred; provided, however, that such Beneficiary (a) shall pay (and none of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo or the Trustee shall be required to pay) any documentary, stamp, transfer or other taxes or duties that may be payable in respect of any sale or transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of such shares to a person other than such Beneficiary including, without limitation, in the event that Exchangeable Shares are being delivered, sold or transferred in the

name of a clearing service or depositary or a nominee thereof, or (b) shall have evidenced to the satisfaction of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo and the Trustee that such taxes or duties (if any) have been paid.

5.9 Notice of Insolvency Event. As soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Insolvency Event or any event that with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would be an Insolvency Event, D-Wave Quantum and ExchangeCo shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee. As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving notice from D-Wave Quantum or ExchangeCo of the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, or upon the Trustee otherwise becoming aware of an Insolvency Event, the Trustee shall mail to each Beneficiary, at the expense of D-Wave Quantum (such funds to be received in advance), a notice of such Insolvency Event in the form provided by D-Wave Quantum, which notice shall contain a brief statement of the rights of the Beneficiaries with respect to the Exchange Right.

5.10 U.S. Securities Law Compliance and Listing of D-Wave Quantum Shares. D-Wave Quantum covenants and agrees that it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-1 (or any successor form) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) to register any and all of the D-Wave Quantum Shares to be issued or delivered to holders of the Exchangeable Shares by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo (including, for greater certainty, pursuant to the Exchange Right or the Automatic Exchange Right), (b) cause the Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as reasonably practicable after the time that any Exchangeable Shares are first issued (and in any event no later than the earlier of (i) the 60^th calendar day (or if the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) notifies D-Wave Quantum that it will “review” the Registration Statement, 90^th calendar day) following the date on which any Exchangeable Shares are first issued, and (ii) the 5^th Business Day after the date D-Wave Quantum is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review), and (c) cause the Registration Statement (or a successor registration statement) to remain effective at all times that any Exchangeable Shares remain outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, D-Wave Quantum and CallCo each covenant and agree that it will take all such actions and do all such things as are reasonably necessary or desirable to make such filings and seek such regulatory consents and approvals as are necessary so that the D-Wave Quantum Shares to be issued or delivered to holders of Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the terms of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, the Support Agreement and this Agreement will be offered, sold, issued and delivered in compliance with the 1933 Act and all applicable state securities laws, and applicable securities laws in Canada and will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the D-Wave Quantum Shares will not be subject to any hold period as contemplated by Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or subject to any “hold period” resale restriction under National Instrument 45-102 Resale of Securities. D-Wave Quantum will in good faith expeditiously take all such actions and do all such things as are reasonably necessary or desirable to cause all D-Wave Quantum Shares to be delivered to holders of Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the terms of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, the Support Agreement and this Agreement to be listed, quoted and posted for trading on all stock exchanges and quotation systems on which outstanding D-Wave Quantum Shares have been listed by D-Wave Quantum and remain listed and are quoted or posted for trading at such time.

5.11 D-Wave Quantum Shares. D-Wave Quantum hereby represents, warrants and covenants that the D-Wave Quantum Shares deliverable as described herein will be duly authorized and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance.

5.12 Automatic Exchange on Liquidation of D-Wave Quantum

(1)	D-Wave Quantum shall give the Trustee written notice of each of the following events (each, a “Liquidation Event”) at the time set forth below:

(a)

in the event of any determination by the board of directors of D-Wave Quantum to institute voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up proceedings with respect to D-Wave Quantum or to effect any other distribution of assets of D-Wave Quantum among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at least 30 days prior to the proposed effective date of such liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or other distribution; and

(b)

as soon as practicable following the earlier of (A) receipt by D-Wave Quantum of notice of, and (B) D-Wave Quantum otherwise becoming aware of any instituted claim, suit, petition or other proceedings with respect to the involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of D-Wave Quantum or to effect any other distribution of assets of D-Wave Quantum among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, in each case where D-Wave Quantum has failed to contest in good faith any such proceeding commenced in respect of D-Wave Quantum within 30 days of becoming aware thereof.

(2)

As soon as practicable following receipt by the Trustee from D-Wave Quantum of notice of a Liquidation Event, the Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Beneficiaries. Such notice shall be provided by D-Wave Quantum to the Trustee and shall include a brief description of the automatic exchange of Exchangeable Shares for D-Wave Quantum Shares provided for in Section 5.12(3) (the “Automatic Exchange Right”).

(3)

In order that the Beneficiaries will be able to participate on a pro rata basis with the holders of D-Wave Quantum Shares in the distribution of assets of D-Wave Quantum in connection with a Liquidation Event, immediately prior to the effective date (the “Liquidation Event Effective Date”) of a Liquidation Event, each of the then outstanding Exchangeable Shares (other than Exchangeable Shares held by D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and their affiliates) shall be automatically exchanged for one D-Wave Quantum Share multiplied by the Exchangeable Share Exchange Ratio. To effect such automatic exchange, D-Wave Quantum (or, if D-Wave Quantum so decides, in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, CallCo) shall purchase each such Exchangeable Share outstanding immediately prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, and each Beneficiary shall sell each Exchangeable Share held by it at such time, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance, for a purchase price per share equal to the Exchangeable Share Price immediately prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, which price shall be satisfied in full by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as applicable, delivering to such holder the Exchangeable Share Consideration representing such Exchangeable Share Price. For greater certainty, the Beneficiary shall upon delivery of the Exchangeable Share Consideration cease to have any rights to be paid by ExchangeCo any amount in respect of declared and unpaid dividends on the Exchangeable Shares.

(4)

The closing of the transaction of purchase and sale contemplated by any exercise of the Automatic Exchange Right shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Liquidation Event Effective Date, and each Beneficiary shall be deemed to have transferred to D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as

applicable, all of such Beneficiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Exchangeable Shares held by such Beneficiary free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance and the related interest in the Trust Estate, any right of each such Beneficiary to receive declared and unpaid dividends from ExchangeCo shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged, and each such Beneficiary shall cease to be a holder of such Exchangeable Shares and D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as applicable, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for delivery to such Beneficiary, the Exchangeable Share Consideration deliverable to such Beneficiary upon such exercise of the Automatic Exchange Right. Concurrently with each such Beneficiary ceasing to be a holder of Exchangeable Shares, such Beneficiary shall be considered and deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the D-Wave Quantum Shares included in the Exchangeable Share Consideration to be delivered to such Beneficiary and the non-transferable acknowledgements held by such Beneficiary previously representing the Exchangeable Shares exchanged by the Beneficiary with D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as applicable, pursuant to the exercise of the Automatic Exchange Right shall thereafter be deemed to represent the D-Wave Quantum Shares issued to such Beneficiary by D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as applicable, pursuant to the exercise of the Automatic Exchange Right.

5.13 Withholding Rights. D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any other person that has any withholding obligation with respect to any amount paid, deemed paid or otherwise deliverable under this Agreement to any holder of Exchangeable Shares or D-Wave Quantum Shares (any such person, an “Other Withholding Agent”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold or direct D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee or any Other Withholding Agent to deduct or withhold on their behalf, from any such amounts as D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee or Other Withholding Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment or deemed payment under the Income Tax Act (Canada) or United States tax laws or any provision of federal, provincial, territorial, state, local, foreign or other tax law, in each case as amended or succeeded. D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any Other Withholding Agent may act and rely on the advice of counsel with respect to such matters. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid to the holder of the shares to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid or deemed paid and such deducted or withheld amounts shall be timely remitted to the appropriate governmental authority as required by applicable law. To the extent that the amount so required to be deducted or withheld from any payment or deemed payment to a holder exceeds the cash portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the holder (such difference, a “Withholding Shortfall”), D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any Other Withholding Agent are hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of, or direct D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee or any Other Withholding Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of, on their account or through a broker (the “Broker”) and on behalf of the relevant holder, or require such holder to irrevocably direct the sale through a Broker and irrevocably direct the Broker to pay the proceeds of such sale to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any Other Withholding Agent, as appropriate (and, in the absence of such irrevocable direction, the holder shall be deemed to have provided such irrevocable direction) such portion of the consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds (after deducting commissions payable to the Broker and other costs and expenses) to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee or the Other Withholding Agent, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee or the Other Withholding Agent, as the case may be, shall notify the holder thereof and remit to such holder any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale. Each of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any Other Withholding Agent, as applicable, shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in

respect of any withholding obligation; however, none of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo, the Trustee and any Other Withholding Agent, as applicable, will be liable for any loss arising out of any sale or other disposal of such consideration, including any loss relating to the manner or timing of such sale or other disposal, the prices at which the consideration is sold or otherwise disposed of or otherwise.

5.14 No Fractional Shares. A holder of an Exchangeable Share shall not be entitled to any fraction of a D-Wave Quantum Share upon the exercise of the Exchange Right or Automatic Exchange Right hereunder and such holder otherwise entitled to a fractional interest shall be entitled to receive for such fractional interest from the Company, D-Wave Quantum or CallCo, as the case may be, a cash payment equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the Current Market Price.

ARTICLE 6

RESTRICTIONS ON ISSUE OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES

6.1 Issue of Additional Special Voting Shares. During the term of this Agreement, D-Wave Quantum shall not, without the consent of the holders at the relevant time of Exchangeable Shares, given in accordance with Section 27.10(2) of the Exchangeable Share Provisions, issue any Special Voting Shares other than the Special Voting Share issued pursuant to Section 3.1.

7.2 Conflict of Interest. If the Trustee has a material conflict of interest in the role of the Trustee as a fiduciary hereunder and the role of the Trustee in any other capacity, the validity and enforceability of this Agreement shall not be affected in any manner whatsoever by reason only of the existence of such material conflict of interest. If the Trustee contravenes the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.2, any interested party may apply to the Supreme Court of British Columbia for an order that the Trustee be replaced as Trustee hereunder.

The Trustee shall have the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any other reason whatsoever, the Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation or regulation or guideline. Further, should the Trustee, in its sole judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Agreement has resulted in its being in non-compliance with any applicable anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist legislation or regulation, then it shall have the right to resign on fifteen days written notice to the other parties to this Agreement, provided that (a) the Trustee’s written notice shall describe the circumstances of such non-compliance and (b) if such circumstances are rectified to the Trustee’s satisfaction within such fifteen day period, such resignation shall not be effective.

In so refusing, the Trustee may elect not to exercise any Voting Rights, Exchange Right, Automatic Exchange Right or other rights subject to such conflicting claims or demands and, in so doing, the Trustee shall not be or become liable to any person on account of such election or its failure or refusal to comply with any such conflicting claims or demands. The Trustee shall be entitled to continue to refrain from acting and to refuse to act until:

(a)

the rights of all adverse claimants with respect to the Voting Rights, Exchange Right, Automatic Exchange Right or other rights subject to such conflicting claims or demands have been adjudicated by a final judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction and all rights of appeal have expired; or

(b)

7.18 Privacy. The parties acknowledge that Canadian federal and/or provincial legislation that addresses the protection of individuals’ personal information (collectively, “Privacy Laws”) applies to obligations and activities under this Agreement. Despite any other provision of this Agreement, no party shall take or direct any action that would contravene, or cause the others

to contravene, applicable Privacy Laws. The parties shall, prior to transferring or causing to be transferred personal information to the Trustee, obtain and retain required consents of the relevant individuals to the collection, use and disclosure of their personal information, or shall have determined that such consents either have previously been given upon which the parties can rely or are not required under the Privacy Laws. Specifically, the Trustee agrees (a) to have a designated chief privacy officer, (b) to maintain policies and procedures to protect personal information and to receive and respond to any privacy complaint or inquiry, (c) to use personal information solely for the purposes of providing its services under or ancillary to this Agreement and not to use it for any purpose except with the consent of or direction from the other parties or the individual involved, (d) not to sell or otherwise improperly disclose personal information to any third party, and (e) to employ administrative, physical and technological safeguards to reasonably secure and protect personal information against loss, theft, or unauthorized access, use or modification.

8.1 Fees and Expenses of the Trustee. D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo jointly and severally agree to pay the Trustee reasonable compensation for all of the services rendered by it under this Agreement and shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable and documented expenses (including, but not limited to, taxes (other than taxes based on the net income or capital of the Trustee), fees paid to legal counsel and other experts and advisors and agents and travel expenses) and disbursements, including the reasonable cost and expense of any suit or litigation of any character and any proceedings before any governmental agency, in each case reasonably incurred by the Trustee in connection with its duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall have no obligation to reimburse the Trustee for any expenses or disbursements paid, incurred or suffered by the Trustee in any suit or litigation or any such proceedings in which the Trustee is determined to have acted in bad faith or with fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

ARTICLE 9

INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

9.1 Indemnification of the Trustee.

(1)

D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and each of its directors, officers, employees and agents appointed and acting in accordance with this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against all claims, losses, damages, reasonable costs, penalties, fines and reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonable and documented expenses of the Trustee’s legal counsel) which, without bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party, may be paid, incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Party by reason or as a result of the Trustee’s acceptance or administration of the Trust, its compliance with its duties set forth in this Agreement, or any written or oral instruction delivered to the Trustee by D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo pursuant hereto.

(2)

The Trustee shall promptly notify D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo of a claim or of any action commenced against any Indemnified Parties promptly after the Trustee or any of the Indemnified Parties shall have received written assertion of such a claim or action or have been served with a summons or other first legal process giving information as to the nature and basis of the claim or action; provided, however, that the omission to so notify D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo shall not relieve D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo of any liability which any of them may have to any Indemnified Party except to the extent that any such delay prejudices the defence of any such claim or action or results in any increase in the liability which D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo have under this indemnity. Subject to (ii) below, D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall be entitled to participate at their own expense in the defence and, if D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo so elect at any time after receipt of such notice, any of them may assume the defence of any suit brought to enforce any such claim. The Trustee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such suit and participate in the defence thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Trustee unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized by D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo, or (ii) the named parties to any such suit include both the Trustee and D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo and the Trustee shall have been advised by counsel acceptable to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo that there may be one or more legal defences available to the Trustee that are different from or in addition to those available to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo and that, in the judgement of such counsel, would present a conflict of interest were a joint representation to be undertaken (in which case D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall not have the right to assume the defence of such suit on behalf of the Trustee but shall be liable to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Trustee). This indemnity shall survive the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

(3)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any liability of the Trustee shall be limited to: (i) direct damages; and (ii) in the aggregate, the amount of annual fees collected by the Trustee under this Agreement in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the first notice of the claim.

(4)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and whether such losses or damages are foreseeable or unforeseeable, the Trustee shall not be liable under any circumstances whatsoever for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, aggravated or punitive losses or damages of any other person.

9.2 Limitation of Liability. The Trustee shall not be held liable for any loss which may occur by reason of depreciation of the value of any part of the Trust Estate or any loss incurred on any investment of funds pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10

CHANGE OF TRUSTEE

10.1 Resignation. The Trustee, or any trustee hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo specifying the date on which it desires to resign, provided that such notice shall not be given less than 30 days before such desired resignation date unless D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo otherwise agree and provided further that such resignation shall not take effect until the date of the appointment of a successor trustee and the acceptance of such appointment by

the successor trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall promptly appoint a successor trustee, which successor trustee shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Canada and authorized to carry on the business of a trust company in all provinces and territories of Canada, by written instrument in duplicate, one copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. Failing the appointment and acceptance of a successor trustee, a successor trustee may be appointed by order of a court of competent jurisdiction upon application of one or more of the parties to this Agreement. If the retiring trustee is the party initiating an application for the appointment of a successor trustee by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall be jointly and severally liable to reimburse the retiring trustee for its reasonable and documented legal costs and expenses in connection with same.

10.2 Removal. The Trustee, or any trustee hereafter appointed, may (provided a successor trustee is appointed) be removed at any time on not less than 30 days’ prior notice by written instrument executed by D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo, in duplicate, one copy of which shall be delivered to the trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, provided that such removal shall not take effect until the date of acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee.

10.3 Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided under this Agreement shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with the like effect as if originally named as trustee in this Agreement. However, on the written request of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due to it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon the request of any such successor trustee, D-Wave Quantum, CallCo, ExchangeCo and such predecessor trustee shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers.

10.4 Notice of Successor Trustee. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided herein, D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo shall cause to be mailed notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to each Beneficiary specified in a then-current List. If D-Wave Quantum, CallCo or ExchangeCo shall fail to cause such notice to be mailed within ten Business Days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed promptly at the expense of D-Wave Quantum, CallCo and ExchangeCo.

ARTICLE 11

D-WAVE QUANTUM SUCCESSORS

case of an amalgamation or merger, of the continuing corporation resulting therefrom, provided that it may do so if:

(a)

such other person or continuing corporation (the “D-Wave Quantum Successor”), by operation of law, becomes, without more, bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement or, if not so bound, executes, prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction, a trust agreement supplemental hereto and such other instruments (if any) as are necessary or advisable to evidence the assumption by the D-Wave Quantum Successor of liability for all moneys payable and property deliverable hereunder and the covenant of such D-Wave Quantum Successor to pay and deliver or cause to be paid and delivered the same and its agreement to observe and perform all the covenants and obligations of D-Wave Quantum under this Agreement; and

(b)

such transaction shall be upon such terms and conditions as to substantially preserve and not impair any of the rights, duties, powers and authorities of the Trustee or the holders of the Exchangeable Shares.

11.2 Vesting of Powers in Successor. Whenever the conditions of Section 11.1 have been duly observed and performed, the parties, if required by Section 11.1, shall execute and deliver the supplemental trust agreement provided for in Section 11.1(a) and thereupon the D-Wave Quantum Successor and such other person that may then be the issuer of the D-Wave Quantum Shares shall possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of D-Wave Quantum under this Agreement in the name of D-Wave Quantum or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Agreement required to be done or performed by the board of directors of D-Wave Quantum or any officers of D-Wave Quantum may be done and performed with like force and effect by the directors or officers of such D-Wave Quantum Successor.

11.3 Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries. Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing (a) the amalgamation or merger of any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of D-Wave Quantum (other than ExchangeCo or CallCo) with or into D-Wave Quantum, (b) the winding-up, liquidation or dissolution of any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of D-Wave Quantum (other than ExchangeCo or CallCo), provided that all of the assets of such subsidiary are transferred to D-Wave Quantum or another wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of D-Wave Quantum, (c) any other distribution of the assets of any wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of D-Wave Quantum among the shareholders of such subsidiary for the purpose of winding up its affairs, and (d) any such transactions which are expressly permitted by this Article 11.

11.4 Successor Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 11, in the event of a D-Wave Quantum Extraordinary Transaction:

(a)

in which D-Wave Quantum merges, combines or amalgamates with, or in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding D-Wave Quantum Shares are acquired by, one or more other corporations to which D-Wave Quantum is, immediately before such merger, combination, amalgamation or acquisition, “related” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (otherwise than by virtue of a right referred to in paragraph 251(5)(b) thereof);

(b)

which does not result in an acceleration of the Redemption Date in accordance with paragraph (ii) of the definition of Redemption Date in the Exchangeable Share Provisions; and

(c)

in which all or substantially all of the then outstanding D-Wave Quantum Shares are converted into or exchanged for shares or rights to receive such shares (the “Other Shares”) of another corporation (the “Other Corporation”) that, immediately after such D-Wave Quantum Extraordinary Transaction, owns or controls, directly or indirectly, D-Wave Quantum;

then, (i) all references herein to “D-Wave Quantum” shall thereafter be and be deemed to be references to “Other Corporation” and all references herein to “D-Wave Quantum Shares” shall thereafter be and be deemed to be references to “Other Shares” (with appropriate adjustments, if any, as are required to result in a holder of Exchangeable Shares on the exchange, redemption or retraction of such shares pursuant to the Exchangeable Share Provisions or the exchange of such shares pursuant to this Agreement immediately subsequent to the D-Wave Quantum Extraordinary Transaction being entitled to receive that number of Other Shares equal to the number of Other Shares such holder of Exchangeable Shares would have received if the exchange, redemption or retraction of such shares pursuant to the Exchangeable Share Provisions or the exchange of such shares pursuant to this Agreement had occurred immediately prior to the D-Wave Quantum Extraordinary Transaction and the D-Wave Quantum Extraordinary Transaction was completed) but subject to subsequent adjustments to reflect any subsequent changes in the share capital of the issuer of the Other Shares, including without limitation, any subdivision, consolidation or reduction of share capital, without any need to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement and without any further action required, and (ii) D-Wave Quantum shall cause the Other Corporation to deposit one or more voting securities of such Other Corporation to allow Beneficiaries to exercise voting rights in respect of the Other Corporation substantially similar to those provided for in this Agreement.

Accidental failure or omission to give any notice, request or other communication to one or more holders of Exchangeable Shares, or any defect in such notice, shall not invalidate or otherwise alter or affect any action or proceeding to be taken pursuant thereto.

14.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
