Just wanted to clear up a few comments about the timing of the AGM.  We changed the date very early on because of the requirements around notice, record date, etc.  The earlier date was noted informally in response to a few people inquiring about it.

However, ever since our Management Information Circular went out on August 28, it has been scheduled for 1:00pm Eastern on October 14, without any change in the time.

POET Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “POET”) is pleased to invite you to join us at our Annual and Special Meeting (the “Meeting”) of holders of common shares (the “Shares”) of the Company (the “Shareholders”). To ensure the safety of the Company’s employees and Shareholders during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Meeting will be held via a virtual on-line platform at 1:00 p.m. (EDT) on October 14, 2022.

If I am wrong about this and there was some other official communication, please bring it to my attention so that I can ensure the same doesn't happen again.

Please contact me on my regular emai, rather that private messages on this platform.  tm@poet-technologies.com

Thanks,

Tom
