1.             Irrevocable Subscription; Subject to Acceptance. By signing this Agreement, the Subscriber irrevocably offers to subscribe for the number of Units equal to the aggregate Subscription Price set out on the cover page of this Agreement, divided by the Unit Price. The Corporation may, in its absolute discretion, accept or reject the Subscriber’s subscription for Units set out in this Agreement, in whole or in part, and the Corporation reserves the right to allot to the Subscriber less than the amount of Units subscribed for under this Agreement. This Agreement is not enforceable against the Corporation unless (and except to the extent to which) it has been accepted by the Corporation. The Subscriber waives any requirement of the Corporation to communicate its acceptance of the subscription (in whole or in part) to the Subscriber. The Subscriber acknowledges (on its own behalf and, if applicable, on behalf of the Disclosed Principal) that the subscription for the Units will be made in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement.

The funds for the aggregate subscription price will be held in trust by Fasken Xxxxxxxxx XxXxxxxx LLP (“Fasken”), counsel to the Corporation, for the benefit of the Subscriber pending closing of the Offering. If the Offering is not completed for any reason, or this Agreement is rejected in whole, any payment delivered on account of the subscription price for the Units will, following receipt by Fasken of written notification from the Corporation of such rejection, be promptly returned to the Subscriber, without interest. If this Agreement is accepted only in part, payment in the amount of any excess payment delivered by the Subscriber to Fasken on account of the subscription price for the Units will, following receipt by Fasken of written notification from the Corporation of such partial acceptance, be promptly delivered to the Subscriber, without interest. No fractions of any Securities (as defined herein) will be issued for any subscription. Any funds in excess of the aggregate Subscription Price for the actual number of Units issued shall be promptly delivered to the Subscriber after Closing.

Additional specific attributes of the Warrants shall be set forth in the certificates representing the Warrants, including, among other things, provisions for the appropriate adjustment in number and price of the Warrants upon the occurrence of certain events, including any subdivision, consolidation or reclassification of the Units.

ACCREDITED INVESTOR QUESTIONNAIRE

The undersigned understands that the purpose of this Questionnaire is to permit Edesa Biotech, Inc. (“Edesa” or the “Company”) to determine whether the undersigned is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The undersigned represents to Edesa that (i) the information contained herein is complete and accurate and may be relied upon by Xxxxx, and (ii) the undersigned will notify Edesa immediately of any change in any of such information.

All information furnished is for the sole use of Edesa and its counsel and will be held in confidence by Xxxxx and its counsel, except that this Questionnaire may be furnished to such parties as Xxxxx xxxxx desirable to establish compliance with federal or state securities laws.

A. For Individuals:

The undersigned individual is an “accredited investor” for one or more of the following reasons (check all that apply):

The undersigned is an individual (not a partnership, corporation, etc.) whose individual net worth, or joint net worth with his or her spousal equivalent (a cohabitant occupying a relationship generally equivalent to that of a spouse), presently exceeds $1,000,000. For purposes of the foregoing, “net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value (including personal and real property, but excluding the estimated fair market value of a person's primary home) over total liabilities. Total liabilities excludes any mortgage on the primary home in an amount of up to the home's estimated fair market value as long as the mortgage was incurred more than 60 days before the securities being offered (the “Securities”) are purchased, but includes (i) any mortgage amount in excess of the home's fair market value and (ii) any mortgage amount that was borrowed during the 60-day period before the closing date for the sale of Securities for the purpose of investing in the Securities. “Joint net worth” can be the aggregate net worth of a person and spouse or spousal equivalent; assets do not need to be held jointly to be included in the calculation.

The undersigned is an individual (not a partnership, corporation, etc.) who had (i) an individual income in excess of $200,000 or (ii) joint income together with his or her spousal equivalent (a cohabitant occupying a relationship generally equivalent to that of a spouse) in excess of $300,000, in each of the two most recent years and reasonably expect to reach the same income level in the current year. For purposes of the foregoing, “income” is not limited to “adjusted gross income” as that term is defined for federal income tax purposes, but rather includes certain items of income which are deducted in computing “adjusted gross income”. For investors who are salaried employees, the gross salary of such investor, minus any significant expenses personally incurred by such investor in connection with earning the salary, plus any income from any other source including unearned income, is a fair measure of “income” for purposes of this question. For investors who are self-employed, “income” is generally construed to mean total revenues received during the calendar year minus significant expenses incurred in connection with earning such revenues.

The undersigned is a director, executive officer, or general partner of the Company, or any director, executive officer, or general partner of a general partner of the Company.

The undersigned holds in good standing one or more of the following certifications, designations and/or credentials:

¨General Securities Representative license (Series 7)

¨Private Securities Offerings Representative license (Series 82)

¨Investment Adviser Representative license (Series 65)

The undersigned is a “knowledgeable employee” as defined in Rule 3c-5(a)(4) under the Investment Company Act as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) with respect to the Company.
