GREENBROOK TMS INC.

Insider Trading Policy

Approved by the Board of Directors on February 9, 2021


GREENBROOK TMS INC.

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

A.

Introduction

1.

This Insider Trading Policy (the “Policy”) applies to all Trades in Securities of Greenbrook TMS Inc. (the “Corporation”) by all officers and members of the board of directors of the Corporation and, to the extent practicable, Significant Shareholders. It also applies to all employees of the Corporation and to all individuals who have entered into consulting arrangements with the Corporation or are independent contractors to the Corporation pursuant to an agreement with the Corporation who, in each case, are designated as “Non-technical Insiders” of the Corporation pursuant to Section B.

2.

This Policy imposes restrictions beyond those imposed by law by requiring pre-clearance of Trades in Securities. Its purpose is to ensure that Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders do not abuse, and do not place themselves under suspicion of abusing, Undisclosed Material Information that they may have or be thought to have, especially in periods leading up to an announcement of the Corporation’s financial results.

3.

Observance of this Policy does not dispense with the need to observe the law relating to Trading in Securities of the Corporation in Canada, the United States, or in any other jurisdiction to which the Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider may be subject.

4.

The legal restrictions in respect of Trading in Securities may, in certain circumstances (e.g., proposed acquisitions), apply to Securities of other public companies (see Section G).

5.

A summary of the application of this Policy to certain more common transactions is given in Section J.

6.

Insiders are strongly advised to consult the Corporation’s General Counsel if they are in any doubt as to the interpretation or application of this Policy.

7.

This Policy shall be posted on the Corporation’s website.

8.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meaning given to them Section L.

All designations of Non-technical Insiders must be reported to the General Counsel who shall retain a list of all Non-technical Insiders of which he or she is advised.


- 4 -

Without limiting the above, Non-technical Insiders include the following Persons:

C.

Prohibition on Trading in Securities of the Corporation

1.

Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders must not Trade any Securities of the Corporation:

(a)

on considerations of a short term nature or by way of call or put options in accordance with Section J;

(b)

during a Closed Period;

(c)

(d)

2.Exceptions

Despite subsection 1(b) above, anyone subject to this Policy may Trade Securities of the Corporation during a Closed Period with the prior consent of any three disinterested directors of the Corporation (which approval may be confirmed with each of them individually). However, permission to Trade Securities of the Corporation during a Closed Period will be granted only in special circumstances.

D.

Clearance to Trade

1.

General

In addition to obligations of Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders contained in Section E.1 with respect to those in a Special Relationship with them and/or the Corporation but subject to Section K(b), Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders must not Trade in any Securities of the Corporation without first applying for and receiving written clearance.

Attached to this Policy as Appendix B is a form which must be submitted to the General


- 5 -

Counsel by all Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders seeking clearance to Trade.

Consideration and a written response will be given to applications as soon as possible.

If clearance is granted, the Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider, as the case may be, must notify the General Counsel as soon as he/she has purchased or sold the Securities by dating, completing, signing and returning the applicable part of the lower portion of the form attached as Appendix B.

In recognition of the fact that circumstances may change, clearance to Trade will have a maximum validity of two (2) Trading Days (or to the beginning of the next Closed Period, if sooner).

Regardless of whether the Trade is completed within the two (2) Trading Day period, the Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider, as applicable, must notify the General Counsel by dating, completing, signing and returning the applicable part of the lower portion of the form attached as Appendix B.

Trades by the General Counsel and CFO must be pre-cleared with, and reported to, the CEO.

2.

Exceptional Circumstances

In exceptional circumstances where it is the only reasonable course of action available to a Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider, clearance may be given for him/her/it to sell (but not to purchase) Securities when he/she/it would otherwise be prohibited from doing so (for example, to meet a pressing financial commitment on the part of the Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider that cannot otherwise be satisfied).  The determination of whether circumstances are exceptional for this purpose will be made by the Person responsible for giving clearance.

E.

Dealings by Persons in a Special Relationship

1.

Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders must (so far as it is consistent with his/her/its duties of confidentiality to the Corporation) use all reasonable efforts to prohibit Trading in any Securities of the Corporation at any time when he/she/it is prohibited from Trading under this Policy by or on behalf of any Person in a Special Relationship with him/her/it and/or the Corporation.

2.

For the purposes of the above paragraph, Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders must advise all Persons or companies (i) in a Special Relationship with him/her/it or (ii) in a Special Relationship with the Corporation and with whom they have contact:

(a)

that trading restrictions apply to the Securities of the Corporation;

(b)

of the Closed Periods during which Trading cannot take place;

(c)

of any other periods when the Reporting Insider or Non-technical Insider knows


- 6 -

that he/she/it is not himself/herself/itself free to deal under the provisions of this Policy unless his/her or its duty of confidentiality to the Corporation prohibits him/her/it from disclosing such periods; and

(d)

that they must inform him/her/it immediately after they have Traded Securities of the Corporation.

Having taken the above action, Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders must, when possible, seek prior clearance, under Section D above, for the Persons or companies in a Special Relationship to Trade.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Reporting Insiders and Non-technical Insiders need not (i) advise a Person in a Special Relationship with the Corporation that they must inform him/her/it immediately after they have Traded Securities of the Corporation or (ii) seek prior clearance, under Section D above, for a Person in a Special Relationship to Trade, if such Person is in a Special Relationship with the Corporation solely by virtue of their being a member of the board of directors, officer or employee of a company that is engaging in or proposes to engage in any business or professional activity with or on behalf of the Corporation.

F.

Insider Acting as Director

If an insider is a member of the board of directors of a corporation and there is any likelihood of the corporation Trading in the Securities of the Corporation, he or she should seek the advice of the General Counsel, as the provisions of this Policy may apply as if the Trading was on his or her own account.

G.

Prohibition on Trading in Securities of Other Public Entities

Illegal insider trading in Securities of another public issuer and illegal tipping by members of the board of directors, officers and other employees of the Corporation of Undisclosed Material Information relating to another issuer can bring the Corporation into disrepute. Accordingly, neither the Corporation nor a member of the board of directors, officer or other employee of the Corporation who is a Person in a Special Relationship with another issuer, such as the suppliers and clinical partners of the Corporation, and who possess Undisclosed Material Information relating to that other issuer, may Trade Securities of the other issuer while they possess the Undisclosed Material Information, or engage in tipping of the Undisclosed Material Information relating to the other issuer.

With regard to other public entities’ Securities, there will be no formal clearance procedure to Trade (as outlined in Section D) unless specifically advised.


- 7 -

H.

Observance of Insider Trading Law

1.

General

Under the Securities Act (Ontario) it is an offence for an individual who has Undisclosed Material Information as an insider to:

(a)

Trade in Securities of the Corporation;

(b)

inform others of the Undisclosed Material Information unless disclosure is necessary in the course of business; or

(c)

recommend or encourage Trades.

Under Ontario securities law, there are harsh penalties for breaches of the rules governing insider Trading. Essentially, the fine is a minimum equal to the profit made or loss avoided and a maximum equal to the greater of $5,000,000 and three times the profit made or loss avoided. As well, penalties can include imprisonment for up to five years less a day.

The U.S. federal securities laws prohibits the purchase or sale of a security of any issuer, on the basis of material nonpublic information about that security or issuer.

Penalties for trading on or tipping material, non-public information can extend significantly beyond any profits made or losses avoided, both for individuals engaging in such unlawful conduct and their employers.  The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. Department of Justice have made the civil and criminal prosecution of insider trading violations a top priority.  Enforcement remedies available to the government or private plaintiffs under the U.S. federal securities laws include:

·

SEC administrative sanctions;

·

securities industry self-regulatory organization sanctions;

·

civil injunctions;

·

damage awards to private plaintiffs;

·

disgorgement of all profits;

·

civil fines for the violator of up to three times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided;

·

civil fines for the employer or other controlling person of a violator (i.e., where the violator is an employee or other controlled person) of up to the greater of $1,000,000 (subject to adjustment for inflation) or three times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided by the violator;

·

criminal fines for individual violators of up to $5,000,000 ($25,000,000 for an


- 8 -

entity); and

·

jail sentences of up to 20 years.

In addition, insider trading could result in serious sanctions by the Corporation, including dismissal.  Insider trading violations are not limited to violations of the U.S. and Canadian securities laws.  Other U.S. federal and state, and Canadian federal or provincial, civil or criminal laws, such as the laws prohibiting mail and wire fraud and the U.S. Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”), also may be violated in connection with insider trading.

2.

Reporting of Reporting Insiders and Trades

Immediately after becoming an insider of the Corporation, each Reporting Insider who holds Securities of the Corporation must complete and file all insider reports required by the securities regulators and provide evidence of same to the General Counsel or provide to the General Counsel the requisite information to complete the relevant filing(s). The General Counsel must, in turn, file the report(s) with the applicable regulator(s) in a timely fashion. To the extent you wish to receive guidance as to the nature of the filings required, please contact the General Counsel.

Upon completing a Trade, each Reporting Insider must, as described in Section D1, notify the General Counsel or CEO, as applicable, by dating, completing, signing and returning the applicable part of the lower portion of the form attached as Appendix B and must complete all insider reports required by the securities regulators and provide evidence of same to the General Counsel or CEO, as applicable, or provide to the General Counsel or CEO, as applicable, the requisite information to complete the relevant filing(s). The General Counsel or CEO, as applicable, must, in turn, file the report(s) with the applicable regulator(s) in a timely fashion.

Reporting Insiders are responsible for ensuring that their individual profile on file with securities regulators remains up to date. Without limiting this obligation, upon ceasing to be a Reporting Insider of the Corporation each Reporting Insider who holds (or in the past held) Securities of the Corporation must complete and file all documentation necessary to update his/her/its personal profile to indicate that he/she/it is no longer a Reporting Insider of the Corporation.

Reporting Insiders requiring assistance with this updating should contact the General Counsel. The above obligations are in addition to any contained in Section D1.

I.

Trading in Breach of the Policy

Any Trading in breach of the law or this Policy will be regarded as a serious offence.

J.

Anti-Hedging

1.

Introduction and Objective

The board of directors of the Corporation believes that it is inappropriate for members of the board of directors, officers or employees of the Corporation or its respective subsidiary entities, or, to the extent practicable, any other Person  (or their Associates) in a Special Relationship with the Corporation to hedge or monetize transactions to lock in the value of holdings in the Securities of the Corporation or to sell “short” Securities of the Corporation. Such transactions, while allowing the holder to own the Corporation’s Securities without the full risks and rewards of ownership, potentially separate the holder’s interests from those of other stakeholders, particularly in the case of equity Securities, the public shareholders of the Corporation.

The objective of this Section J is therefore to prohibit those subject to it from directly or indirectly engaging in hedging against future declines in the market value of any Securities of the Corporation through the purchase of financial instruments designed to offset such risk.

2.

Prohibitions Against Certain Hedging Transactions

Unless otherwise approved by the Corporation’s Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee (or, if so delegated by the Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee, the General Counsel, CFO or CEO, as applicable), no member of the board of directors, officer or employee of the Corporation, or, to the extent practicable, any other Person (or their Associate) in a Special Relationship with the Corporation, may, at any time, purchase financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, instruments for the short sale or purchase or sale of call or put options, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchangeable funds, that are designed to or that may reasonably be expected to have the effect of hedging or offsetting a decrease in the market value of any equity Securities granted to any such Person as compensation or any other Securities of the Corporation held directly or indirectly thereby.

Any violation of this Section J will be regarded as a serious offence.

3.

General

Nothing in this Section J in any way detracts from or limits any obligations that those subject to it have in law or pursuant to a management, employment, consulting or other agreement with the Corporation.

K.
