PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON JANUARY 27, 2026

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

The Board of Directors of Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (“Lexaria”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held via Event Conferencing by way of calling: for Toronto residents 416-764-8658; and for all others 1-888-886-7786, at 1:00 p.m. (PT), on Tuesday, January 27, 2026 or at any adjournment of the Annual Meeting (the “Meeting”).

This proxy statement, the attached notice of the Meeting, a proxy card and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2025, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 26, 2025 are collectively referred to as the “proxy materials”. The proxy materials are first being made available to our shareholders on or about December 10, 2025.

Important Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials

for the Meeting to be Held on January 27, 2026

All shareholders have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the attached Notice of Annual Meeting. Pursuant to rules adopted by the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to send a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to our shareholders instead of mailing printed copies of the proxy materials, unless you have previously elected to receive printed materials. The Notice provides instructions on how to access the proxy materials via the internet and how to request a printed set of the proxy materials at no charge. In addition, the stockholders can elect to receive future proxy materials electronically by email or in printed form by mail, and any such election will remain in effect until terminated by the shareholder. We encourage all shareholders to take advantage of the proxy materials on the internet to help reduce the cost and environmental impact of our shareholder meetings.

The proxy materials are also available at www.colonialstock.com/LEXX2026 and www.lexariabioscience.com.

What items will be voted at the Meeting?

Our shareholders will vote:

1.	to elect the following seven Director nominees, Richard Christopher, John Docherty, Christopher Bunka, Nicholas Baxter, William Edward (Ted) McKechnie, Albert Reese Jr., and Bal Bhullar as Directors to serve our Company for the ensuing year or until their successors are elected;

2.	to ratify the appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2026, and to allow Directors to set the remuneration;

3.	to ratify and approve all lawful acts of the Directors effected since the last shareholder meeting; and

4.	to transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment of postponement thereof.

We urge you to carefully read and consider the information contained in this proxy statement. We request that you cast your vote on each of the proposals described in this proxy statement. As noted, attendance at the Meeting will be by Event Conferencing and accordingly, only votes cast by registered shareholders attending the Meeting and from validly completed and delivered proxies will be counted. Please follow the instructions provided in the proxy card sent to you.

Table of Contents

How does the Board recommend I vote on the proposals?

Our Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each Director nominee noted under proposal 1 and “FOR” all of the proposals noted under items 2 and 3.

Who can vote at the Meeting?

Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on December 1, 2025, as the Record Date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting or any adjournment. If you were a shareholder of record on the Record Date, you are entitled to vote at the Meeting.

As of the Record Date, 22,225,846, shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding and no other voting securities were issued and outstanding. Therefore, a total of 22,225,846 votes are entitled to be cast at the Meeting.

How many votes do you have?

On each proposal to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of our common shares that you owned on the Record Date. There is no cumulative voting.

How can you Vote?

If you hold shares in your own name as a stockholder of record: Common shares can be voted at our Meeting by way of a proxy over the internet or by telephone by following the instructions in the Notice and/or proxy card, or, if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, you may vote by marking, dating and signing the enclosed proxy card and returning it to the address provided. Additionally, you may vote your shares by way of attending the Meeting via Event Conferencing and calling into the toll free line at 1-888-886-7786 or if you reside in Toronto, at 416-764-8658 and voting by way of selecting the appropriate option for each proposal. Shareholders voting by internet or telephone should understand that, while we and the party providing the service through which you may vote by internet or by telephone do not charge any fees to our shareholders for voting in such manner, there may be usage charges from the internet access providers and telephone companies for which you are responsible.

If your shares are held in the name of a stock brokerage account or by a bank, or other nominee (that is, in “street name”): You will receive instructions from the holder of record that you must follow for your shares to be voted. The availability of telephonic or internet voting will depend on your broker’s (or other nominee’s) voting process. Please check with your broker or other nominee and follow the voting procedure your broker or other nominee provides to vote your shares. If you wish to vote in person via attending the Event Conference Meeting, you must request a legal proxy from your broker or other nominee that holds your shares and email that proxy and proof of identification 48 hours prior to the Meeting to Vanessa Carle, Head of Legal at vcarle@lexariabioscience.com.

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. We are encouraging our shareholders to vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the Meeting via Event Conferencing and to appoint the nominees noted in our proxy, namely Richard Christopher, our Chief Executive Officer, or John Docherty, our President & CSO, to represent such shareholder at our Meeting.

Valid proxies will be voted at our Meeting and at any postponements or adjournments thereof as you direct in the proxy, provided that they are received at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays) prior to the scheduled time of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof.

The common shares represented by the proxy will be voted, or withheld from voting, as directed in the proxy. If no direction is given and the proxy is validly executed, the proxy will be voted: (1) FOR the election of the nominees for our Board of Directors; (2) FOR the approval and ratification of the appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our Company’s auditors for the 2026 fiscal year and the approval to allow the Directors to set the remuneration; and (3) FOR the ratification and approval of all lawful acts of the Directors.

Table of Contents

If any other matters properly come before our Meeting, the persons authorized under the proxies will vote upon such other matters in accordance with their best judgment, pursuant to the discretionary authority conferred by the proxy.

Quorum

A quorum of shareholders is necessary to take action at our Meeting. Currently, the holders of at least 33.33% of our issued shares entitled to vote as at the Record Date, present in person (via Event Conferencing) or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at our Meeting. However, if a quorum is not present, then the holders of a majority of the common shares of our Company who are present at the Meeting, in person (via Event Conferencing) or by proxy, may adjourn such meeting from time to time until it is determined that holders constituting the required quorum of the issued common shares of the capital stock shall attend. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the original meeting. Broker non-votes occur when a nominee holding common shares for a beneficial owner of those common shares has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner with respect to a particular matter and such nominee does not possess or choose to exercise discretionary authority with respect thereto. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be included in the determination of the number of common shares present at our Meeting for quorum purposes but neither broker non-votes nor abstentions will be counted as votes cast on any matter presented at our Meeting.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. ACCORDINGLY, YOU ARE ASKED TO COMPLETE AND RETURN YOUR PROXY PURSUANT TO ONE OF THE METHODS AVAILABLE WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND OUR MEETING VIA EVENT CONFERENCING.

Dissenting Shareholder Rights

Dissenting shareholders have no appraisal rights under Nevada law or under our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws in connection with the matters to be voted on at the Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

If you receive more than one proxy card, it means that you hold shares registered in more than one name or in different accounts. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, please vote by proxy by following instructions provided in each proxy card. If some of your shares are held in “street name,” you should have received voting instructions with these materials from your broker, bank or other nominee. Please follow the voting instructions provided to ensure that your vote is counted.

What vote is required for the election of Directors or for the approval of a proposal?

The vote of a simple majority of our stock held by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting will be sufficient to elect Directors. For the election of Directors, the nominees who receive more “For” votes than the “Withheld” votes, will be elected as Directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of Directors.

The vote of a simple majority of our stock held by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting will be sufficient to ratify the appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2026 and to allow Directors to set the remuneration.

The vote of a simple majority of our stock held by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting will be sufficient to ratify and approve all lawful acts of the Directors effected since the last shareholder meeting.

Table of Contents

Counting of Votes

All votes will be tabulated by Vanessa Carle, the Company’s Secretary who will serve as the inspector of elections appointed for the Meeting, and in that capacity will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes and abstentions. Shares represented by proxies that reflect an abstention or broker “non-vote” will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Abstentions and a broker “non-vote” will be treated as not-voted for purposes of determining approval of a proposal and will not be counted as “for” or “against” that proposal. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary authority or does not have instructions from the beneficial owner.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Yes. You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote again on a later date via the Internet or by telephone (only your latest Internet or telephone proxy submitted prior to the Meeting will be counted) or by signing and returning a new proxy card with a later date. You may also request that your prior proxy be revoked by delivering to our Company, at the address on the Notice of Meeting, Attention: Secretary, a written notice of revocation prior to the Meeting being held at the offices of Lexaria. Any revocation of proxy or later dated proxy MUST BE RECEIVED by 9:00 a.m. PT prior to the commencement of the Meeting.

If you hold your shares in street name, you will need to follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to revoke or change your vote.

How can I attend the Event Conferencing Meeting?

You may call 416-764-8658 if you live in Toronto, Ontario, otherwise you can call toll-free at 1-888-886-7786 if you wish to participate in the Event Conferencing Meeting to hear the business of the Meeting, to vote on the proposals and to listen to the question and answer session. A limited amount of questions will be allowed to be submitted on the proposals to be voted on during the Meeting.

You will be asked to provide your name, and if different, the name that your shares are registered under, the number of shares you hold as well as an email address, should we need to follow up with you regarding any unanswered questions.

How can I ask questions?

We welcome the opportunity to respond to your questions and encourage you to email any questions that you may have regarding the proposals to the Company in advance of the Meeting. Please provide your questions to our Head of Legal, Vanessa Carle at vcarle@lexariabioscience.com as we will only have time to answer questions on proposals that are submitted in advance and a maximum of two (2) questions per proposal during the Meeting. When we come to each proposal that requires a vote, we will have the moderator provide instructions on the process for asking questions for the purposes of discussion on the proposal. Once the questions have been responded to, the moderator will provide instructions on the method of voting on the proposal.

In addition to the matters described in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and the Proxy Statement, we will be conducting a question and answer session after the termination of the meeting (the “Q & A Session”). The Q & A Session will entail the Chief Executive Officer answering questions that were submitted in advance of the Meeting; it should be noted that no new questions will be taken from attendees during the Q & A session. In order to ensure that we are able to address as many general questions as possible, we encourage you to forward your questions in advance of the meeting by emailing our Head of Legal, Vanessa Carle at vcarle@lexariabioscience.com who will then ensure that they are answered at the end of the Meeting.

Who pays for the cost of proxy preparation and solicitation?

We will pay for the cost of proxy preparation and solicitation, including the reasonable charges and expenses of brokers, banks or other nominees for forwarding proxy materials to street name holders.

We are soliciting proxies for use at our Event Conferencing Meeting primarily by mail. In addition, our Directors, officers and regular employees may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, mail, other means of communication or personally. These individuals will receive no additional compensation for such services.

Notes:

	(1)	Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of common shares actually outstanding on the Record Date.

	(2)	the address for these persons is c/o Lexaria Bioscience Corp., 100 – 740 McCurdy Road, Kelowna, BC V1X 2P7

	(3)	Percentage of ownership is based on 22,225,846 common shares issued and outstanding as of the Record Date on a diluted basis. Except as otherwise indicated, we believe that the beneficial owners of the common stock listed above, based on information furnished by such owners, have sole investment and voting power with respect to such common shares.

	(4)	Aggregate amount as a group includes all vested and unvested options.

	(5)	Consists of (a) 65,000 shares of common stock owned by Richard Christopher and (b) 274,998 options which are exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date.

	(6)	Consists of (a) 54,075 shares held in the name of Docherty Management Ltd.; (b) 5,376 shares held directly by John Docherty; and (c) 310,834 options held in the name of John Docherty which are exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date.

	(7)	Consists of (a) 281,912 shares held in the name of C.A.B. Financial Services, (b) 273,543 shares held directly by Christopher Bunka, and (c) 184,834 options held in the name of Christopher Bunka which are exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date

	(8)	Consists of (a) 11,000 shares of common stock owned by Nicholas Baxter and (b) 63,000 options which are exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date.

Meetings

All proceedings of the Board of Directors were conducted either at such formal meetings and evidenced by way of minutes of such proceedings or by way of resolutions consented to in writing by all the Directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the Directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the Directors are, according to the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the Directors duly called and held.

As our Directors and executive officers live in various areas within Canada, the United States and Europe, they are invited to attend the Meeting of shareholders via Event Conferencing.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Compensation Committee

The Company created a Compensation Committee on July 2, 2020 and during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025 the Compensation Committee held nine (9) meetings. Currently the Compensation Committee consists of Nicholas Baxter and Ted McKechnie, all Directors being “independent” pursuant to Nasdaq independence standards.

The Compensation Committee’s purpose is to review, consider, research and recommend compensation for the Company’s executive management, taking into consideration achieved milestones, the compensation issued by companies of similar size and the overall financial health of the Company. In addition, the Compensation Committee is also responsible for approving and reviewing employment agreements and benefits agreements as well as any executive compensation information that is incorporated into the Company’s periodic reports. The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors, which was most recently created on July 2, 2020. A copy of the Compensation Committee charter can be downloaded from the Company’s website http://www.lexariabioscience.com under our Investors/Governance/Governance Documents tab.

Governance and Nominating Committee

The Company created a Governance and Nominating Committee (the “G & N Committee”) on December 8, 2020 and during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025 the G & N Committee held one (1) meeting. Currently the members of the G & N Committee are Bal Bhullar, Ted McKechnie and Albert Reese Jr., all of whom qualify as independent Directors of the Company. The purpose of the G & N Committee is to assist the Board of Directors with fulfilling its responsibilities by: (i) being satisfied that corporate governance guidelines are adopted, disclosed and applied including director qualification standards, director responsibilities, director access to management and independent advisors, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, and annual performance evaluation of the Board; (ii) identifying individuals qualified to become new Board members and recommending to the Board the nominees for each Annual Meeting of shareholders of the Corporation; and (iii) such other matters delegated to the Committee by the Board.

A copy of the G & N Committee charter can be downloaded from the Company’s website http://www.lexariabioscience.com under our Investors/Governance/Governance Documents tab.

The Board of Directors has a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and overseeing the management of our business, and accordingly, we seek to attract and retain highly qualified directors who have sufficient time to engage in the activities of the Board of Directors and to understand and enhance their knowledge of our industry and business plans. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates, the G & N Committee and Board of Directors may take into account many factors, including: relevant education, experience and expertise; knowledge of the Company and the issues facing the Company; whether the candidate will strengthen the Board, as a whole, and remedy any perceived deficiencies in the specific criteria; moral and ethical character; diversity of expertise and experience in substantive matters pertaining to our business relative to other board members; diversity of background and perspective, including, but not limited to, with respect to age, gender, race, sexual orientation, place of residence and specialized experience; and any other relevant qualifications, attributes or skills. The core competencies of directors should address accounting or finance experience, market familiarity, business or management experience, industry knowledge, customer-base experience or perspective, crisis response, leadership, and/or strategic planning.

Audit and Finance Committee

It is not the duty of our Audit and Finance Committee to determine that our financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our management is responsible for preparing our financial statements, and our independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing those financial statements. Our Audit and Finance Committee does, however, consult with management and our independent registered public accounting firm prior to the presentation of financial statements to shareholders and, as appropriate, initiates inquiries into various aspects of our financial affairs. In addition, our Audit and Finance Committee is responsible for retaining, evaluating and, if appropriate, recommending the termination of our independent registered public accounting firm and approving professional services provided by them.

AUDIT AND FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT

Our Audit and Finance Committee oversees our financial reporting process. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal accounting controls.

Our Audit and Finance Committee has discussed with MaloneBailey LLP, Chartered Accountants, our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended August 31, 2025, the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1.

Not “Soliciting Material” The material in this report is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC and is not to be incorporated by reference in any filing of our Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

Director Independence

We currently act with seven Directors, consisting of Richard Christopher, John Docherty, Christopher Bunka, Ted McKechnie, Nicholas Baxter, Albert Reese Jr. and Bal Bhullar. We have determined that Ted McKechnie, Nicholas Baxter, Albert Reese Jr. and Bal Bhullar are each an “independent director” as defined in Nasdaq Rules.

These same individuals are being nominated for re-election by the shareholders of the Company.

Executive Sessions of Independent Directors

To encourage and enhance communication between independent directors, and as required by Nasdaq Rules, we provide for executive sessions to be held, at the sole discretion of the independent directors, at each formal board meeting.

Shareholder Communications with Our Board of Directors

Because of our Company’s small size, we do not have a formal procedure for shareholder communication with our Board of Directors. In general, members of our Board of Directors and executive officers are accessible by telephone or mail. Any matter intended for our Board of Directors, or for any individual member or members of our Board of Directors, should be directed to our Head of Legal, Vanessa Carle by:

Email at: vcarle@lexariabioscience.com

Fax at: 250-765-2599

Mail at: 100 – 740 McCurdy Road, Kelowna, BC V1X 2P7

with a request to forward the communication to the intended recipient.

Board Leadership Structure

The Chairman of our Board of Directors is Christopher Bunka, who was also our Chief Executive Officer until August 31, 2024. Mr. Bunka currently acts as a strategic executive advisor to the Company. We have determined that the leadership structure of our Board of Directors is appropriate, especially given the early stage of our development and the size of our Company.

Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors oversees our exposure to risk through its interaction with management and receipt from management of periodic reports outlining matters related to clinical trial, financial, operational, regulatory, legal and strategic risks. As the Company does not currently employ the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) within its business management or conduct, no specific Board AI-related risk oversight has been formalized. Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our Board of Directors encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings, and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the Board of Directors at regular board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on particular business functions, operations or strategies and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.

As an early stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing our patented DehydraTECH technology, we do not sell products nor maintain customer lists or similar personal information. Therefore, we do not consider that we face significant cybersecurity risk and have not adopted a formal cybersecurity risk management program or process for assessing cybersecurity risk currently. We assess material risks from cybersecurity threats on an ongoing basis, including any potential unauthorized access to or occurrence on or conducted through our information systems that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our information systems or any information residing therein. To this end, we utilize an outsourced information technology consultant, who we believe has sufficient experience and expertise with regard to cybersecurity matters, to implement systems and procedures designed to reduce, respond to and monitor for cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. Our outsourced information technology consultant conducts proactive patching and monitoring of all of our existing systems monthly and has implemented systems and procedures to mitigate cybersecurity risks that we believe are appropriate for a company of our size, stage of growth and financial condition.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and Directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the SEC and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, Directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock were complied with.

All compensation paid pursuant to the above-noted agreements that is paid in Canadian currency but reported in US currency is calculated using the Bank of Canada interbank rate as at the last day of the applicable month.

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for our executive officers, except that our executive officers may receive stock options at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our Philosophy on Compensation

At Lexaria, our goal is to positively impact human health and lifestyles through consumer and pharmaceutical products that reduce onset times, reduce dosage quantities, provide healthier administration methods and minimize severe side effects though the incorporation of Lexaria’s patented DehydraTECH technology. In order to accomplish this goal, we must attract, engage and retain highly qualified individuals who are able, due to our small size, to fulfil a broad range of business development responsibilities, while also creating long-term shareholder value and embracing Lexaria’s core values of innovation, high-performance and expertise. Our compensation incentives are designed to align our goals with the long-term interests of our shareholders and partners.

Objectives

When determining compensation payable to our Named Executive Officers, Lexaria considers the following:

Relationship between individual efforts and company performance: We reinforce a high-performance culture by linking annual bonuses payable to our executive officers with company performance. These performance-based milestone bonuses are dependent on the successful completion or partial completion of certain corporate objectives determined by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. These corporate objectives encompass a broad spectrum of improvement, including, advancements in Lexaria’s technology as evidenced through patents granted or successful results from clinical trials and/or research studies, material financings or strategic partnerships and increased share value.

Attract and retain talented executives: Compensation opportunity is market competitive and reflects the level of job impact and responsibilities. Retention of talent is an important factor in the milestones set for our performance milestones.

Consider shareholder input: Management and the Compensation Committee consider the results of our say-on-pay vote and other sources of shareholder feedback when considering the executive compensation payments.

Review of Peer Companies: The Compensation Committee has historically engaged a third party service provider to assist them with conducting a peer analysis of compensation provided to the directors and executive officers of similar companies to Lexaria and continues to monitor those peer companies and their associated compensation.

Say-on-Pay Results for 2025

The last shareholder advisory vote on the executive compensation was provided at the 2025 Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders whereby the executive compensation described in the Named Executive Officer’s employment and/or consulting agreements was approved by a vote of 97% with the next shareholder advisory vote being scheduled for our 2028 annual shareholder meeting. As the shareholders had indicated to the Company, by way of their substantial vote in favour, that the compensation being provided to the Named Executive Officers was acceptable and approved, the Company has maintained the forms of compensation as detailed in the above noted employment/consultant agreements.

Table of Contents

Compensation Committee’s Processes and Analyses

Due to the small size of Lexaria, the CEO and the President & CSO consider the business objectives and goals of the Company for the ensuing calendar year and provide recommendations to the Compensation Committee for the establishment of performance milestones for the Company’s executives and other key employees which will assist in the accomplishment of such objectives and goals at a high level of success.

The Compensation Committee then considers the recommendations of the CEO and President & CSO and independently accepts, rejects or amends them, as they deem appropriate, based on their internal discussions, research and/or consultation with the Company’s outside lawyers, accountants or any third party consultants. The final performance milestones are then weighted based on importance and difficulty of achievement.

Payment of Bonus Compensation Based on Success of Performance Milestones

At the end of the calendar year, or shortly thereafter, the CEO and President & CSO provide the Compensation Committee with a summary of the Company’s overall performance identifying whether a performance milestone was met. The Compensation Committee then considers the performance milestone and the validating evidence to confirm the applicable rate of the performance milestone bonus, with such bonus being no greater than 50% of the annual salary of the CEO, President & CSO and CFO, respectively.

Competitive Pay Assessment

In 2024, the Company engaged, for the first time in its history, US residents to act in the capacity of executive officers. Accordingly, in conjunction with the Compensation Committee’s review of a third party provided peer analysis report and a review by the Company’s US employment legal counsel, the base salary (“Base Salary”) for the Company’s current Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer was established. The annual increase to the Base Salary of the Chief Financial Officer is based on 1.25 times the inflation rate as published by the US Federal Reserve Board and the annual increase to the Base Salary of the Chief Executive Officer is based on a 5% increase on Jan. 1, 2026 with additional annual increases being based on normal business practices and in the sole discretion of the Company. The Company renegotiated its contract with its President & CSO, John Docherty, which resulted in an increase to Mr. Docherty’s then current Base Salary to bring it in line with similar executives of the peer companies reviewed to establish the Base Salaries in 2024 for the CEO and CFO. Mr. Docherty will receive a 5% Base Salary increase on January 1, 2026 and again on January 1, 2027, with additional annual increases being based on normal business practices and in the sole discretion of the Company.

Components of our Compensation

Our 2025 executive compensation was composed of three components:

	·	Base salary;
	·	Cash bonus (performance milestone, subsidiary sale and change of control); and
	·	Equity compensation, namely stock options.

Base Salary

As noted under Employment and Consulting Agreements and Competitive Pay Assessment above, each of our Named Executive Officers receives a Base Salary that is increased pursuant to their respective annual increase formula.

Cash Bonus – Performance Milestone

As noted under Employment and Consulting Agreements and above, each of our Named Executive Officers has certain performance milestone goals set for them pursuant to the successful completion of which they are eligible to qualify to be paid a bonus of not more than 50% of their Base Salary.

Table of Contents

For the calendar year ended December 31, 2025, the Performance Based Incentives established by the Compensation Committee focused on the positive findings, supporting future pre-/clinical investigations of the Company’s DehydraTECH technology with GLP-1 and GIP molecules, from the completion of human pilot studies and its Phase 1b clinical trial in Australia. As well, commercial success metrics were established for the completion of a publicly disclosable collaboration with a marquis business partner, completing successful financing(s) of $7.5 million or more to avoid a going concern opinion, without negative effects to shareholders, and meeting certain financial performance metrics. The Compensation Committee then presented the milestones and timeframes for the completion of same to the independent Board for approval. The approved milestones and timeframes then set a basis for the compensation payable pursuant to the Performance Based Incentives to the Named Executive Officers, with such payments being made by March 31, 2026. All of the milestones established for the payment of Performance Based Incentives contained a high level of difficulty to achieve due to various unpredictable outside factors.

For the calendar year ended December 31, 2024, the Performance Based Incentives established by the Compensation Committee focused on the advancement of the Company’s DehydraTECH technology with GLP-1 and GIP molecules through the completion of animal and human pilot studies. As well, commercial success metrics were established for the completion of a strategic commercial transaction, completing successful financing(s) of $15 million or more, without negative effects to shareholders and meeting certain financial performance metrics. The Compensation Committee then presented the milestones and timeframes for the completion of same to the independent Board for approval. The approved milestones and timeframes then set a basis for the compensation payable pursuant to the Performance Based Incentives to the Named Executive Officers, with such payments being made by March 31, 2025.

Cash Bonus – Change of Control

With respect to compensation provided to the fiscal year end Named Executive Officers, in the circumstances of a change of control, it is considered that such change of control will be linked to Lexaria being taken over by a larger successful company, thus creating increased value for its shareholders. A change of control will be triggered if any of the following events occurs:

	(a)	If any individual, partnership, company, society, or other legal entity (a “Person”), alone or together with any other Persons with whom it is acting jointly or in concert, becomes the beneficial owner of, or acquires the power to exercise control or direction over, directly or indirectly, such securities (or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities) entitled to more than fifty percent (50%) or more of the votes exercisable by holders of the then-outstanding securities generally entitled to vote for the election of directors (“Voting Stock”) of the Company or if any Persons that previously were not acting jointly or in concert commence acting jointly or in concert and together beneficially own, or have the power to exercise control or direction over, securities entitled to more than fifty percent (50%) or more of the votes exercisable by holders of Voting Stock, or have rights of conversion which, if exercised, would permit such Persons to own or control such a percentage of votes;

	(b)	The Company is merged, amalgamated or consolidated into or with another Person and, as a result of such business combination, a Person who previously held securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the votes exercisable by the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company, either alone or together with any other persons with whom it is acting jointly or in concert, is now, either alone or together with any other persons with whom it is acting jointly or in concert, entitled to hold more than fifty percent (50%) of the votes, exercisable by holders of the Voting Stock of the Company or of such Person into which the Voting Stock of the Company has been converted;

	(c)	The capital of the Company is reorganized and a Person, together with any other persons with whom it is acting jointly or in concert, which previously held securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the votes exercisable by the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company, now as a result of such reorganization, holds securities entitled to more than fifty percent (50%) of the votes exercisable by the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company;

	(d)	The Company sells or otherwise transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another Person and a Person, together with any other persons with whom it is acting jointly or in concert, which previously held securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the votes exercisable by the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company, now as a result of such sale or transfer, holds securities entitled to more than fifty percent (50%) of the votes exercisable by the holders of the Voting Stock of the Company; or

	(e)	During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of any such period constitute the directors of the Company or constitute the directors of the sole shareholder of the Company, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof.

Table of Contents

Cash Bonus – Affiliate Sale

The President & CSO of the Company has maintained, in his renegotiated contract, a cash bonus for the sale of an affiliate of the Company. It was determined that compensation for these transactions was justified as the sale of an affiliate, (or the material assets of an affiliate), was deemed to represent the development of a strategic asset, namely a subsidiary representing a branch of the Company’s technology, that became a desirable acquisition for an established company which would result in significant cash revenue for the Company. The development of the assets of such an affiliate would be based on patents that the President & CSO is not only an inventor of, but also the driving force behind the study designs to support such patents.

Equity Compensation

Equity compensation, namely through the issuance of stock options, to the Named Executive Officers is typically considered in conjunction with each of the Company’s Directors, employees and, if applicable, consultants. The Company’s non-employee Directors are contractually issued stock options for the purchase of up to 11,000 shares of common stock annually. For the remainder of the Company’s team members, the executive officers review the allotment and value of options currently issued by the Company to its team members and then consider the contributions made by each of the Company’s team members during the year, the equity compensation practices of its peer companies and number of options available for issuance. The executive officers then present their suggested option issuance allotment to the Compensation Committee along with an explanation for such suggested allotments for their review and consideration. After any adjustments are made to the option issuance allotment pursuant to the feedback provided by the Compensation Committee, the full Board of Directors will then authorize and approve the stock options issuances. While there are no formalized practices in place with respect to the timing of option issuances, the Company has a strict policy of refraining from issuing stock options close in time to the filing of its Form 10-K or Form 10-Q financial statements and until after any material non-public information has been released. Lexaria uses equity compensation as a further means to align the interests of its Named Executive Officers with those of its shareholders.

Compensation Plans

As of August 31, 2025, we had one active equity compensation plan, a summary of which follows:

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”)

On May 1, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the Incentive Plan which was subsequently approved by the Lexaria shareholders on June 20, 2019 at the Company’s annual and special meeting. The Incentive Plan permits grants of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights (collectively the “incentive securities”) to eligible participants. On May 9, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved an increase to the maximum number of incentive securities that could be issued under the Incentive Plan to 809,165 shares and further approved an evergreen formula so that the maximum number of incentive securities issuable under the Incentive Plan would adjust as at January 1 of each year, starting in 2024, to be 10% of the issued share capital as at December 31 of the previous year.

On January 18, 2024 and January 6, 2025 the Company filed a Form S-8 Registration Statement with the SEC, to register the increase to the incentive securities issuable pursuant to the evergreen formula.

Table of Contents

The purchase price per share deliverable upon the exercise of an incentive security granted under the Incentive Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant of such incentive security but cannot be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value per share on the date of the incentive security grant. Further incentive securities issued to persons who own ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, shall bear an exercise price of no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Company’s shares on the date of grant. Incentive securities granted under the Incentive Plan shall expire on such date as determined by the Board of Directors and set forth in the applicable award agreement, provided, that such date shall not be later than (10) ten years after the date on which the incentive security is granted and, in the case of recipients who hold more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, such date shall not be more than five (5) years from the date on which the incentive security is granted.

Eligible participants to the Incentive Plan shall include Directors, officers, employees and consultants of Lexaria and of Lexaria’s affiliates. Vesting provisions may be placed on incentive security issuances at the discretion of the Board of Directors, taking into consideration the length of service of the recipient and the number of incentive securities granted. Specifically, options shall typically terminate on the earlier of: (i) the expiry date; (ii) one year after disability or death of the optionee; or (iii) three months after termination of the optionee’s services to Lexaria or an affiliate of Lexaria. As at the Record Date, there are currently 1,484,435, issued and unexercised options under the Incentive Plan with an allowable 158,324 options available for issuance.

Policies and Practices related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information (“MNPI”)

The Company has a strict policy of not issuing options or allowing its insiders to conduct stock trades at times, subject to any allowable trades that might occur pursuant to a 10b5-1 Trading Plan, where MNPI is known or a material transaction is anticipated to occur. Each insider and employee of the Company is required to read and sign the Company’s Insider Trading and Black Out Period Policy, which prescribes certain set periods that prohibit insider trading. Other than as established for black-out periods associated with our quarterly and annual financial statement filings, our executive management will also issue notices of black-out trading periods if they are aware of material transactions which they anticipate closing.

Despite diligent efforts to prevent such grant of equity awards close in time to the release of MNPI, there are times when a material transaction may unexpectedly close with a faster timeline than expected which may result in an inadvertent issuance of stock options near or close to the disclosure of MNPI.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Company did not grant any equity awards to its directors or officers that were close in time to the release of MNPI.

Other Forms of Compensation

Lexaria has agreed to provide reimbursement for medical and dental benefits to its US Named Executive Officers.

Other than as noted above, Lexaria does not provide any benefits associated with pension, retirement, RRSP matching, gym membership, car allowance, life insurance plans or, with respect to its Canadian Named Executive Officer, extended health or dental.

Pay Versus Performance

In accordance with rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, we are providing the following table outlining the past three fiscal years’ executive compensation for our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and Non-PEO executive officers (“NEOs”) and comparative Company performance based on total shareholder return. We are a smaller reporting company (“SRC”), as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act and have elected to provide in this proxy statement certain scaled disclosures permitted under the Exchange Act for SRCs

	(1)	The PEO reflects Chris Bunka, who served as the Company’s CEO until August 31, 2024 and Richard Christopher, the Company’s current CEO. The Non-PEO NEOs noted are John Docherty, the Company’s President & CSO, Michael Shankman, the Company’s current CFO, Nelson Cabatuan, the Company’s CFO from March 2024 to July 2024 and Greg Downey, the Company’s CFO from April 2021 to June 2023;

	(2)	The amounts shown in the Compensation Actually Paid have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually realized or received, but rather reflect compensation as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table for each year, adjusted as described in footnote 3 below;

	(3)	Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718;

	(4)	As we have not paid any dividends, cumulative TSR is calculated by dividing $100 by the last closing price in fiscal 2020 to obtain a number of shares, and multiplying that number of shares by the closing price on the last trading day of the relevant measure period.

	3)	Represents Ms. Turkel’s compensation from September 1, 2024 to January 14, 2025

Effective on January 14, 2025, each non-employee Director entered into a Board of Director Services Agreement with the Company which replaced any previous Board of Director Services Agreement. Under the new agreement, they are paid $40,000 annually as compensation for their director services, $5,000 annually as compensation for their committee services and $5,000 annually as compensation for acting as the Chair on any committee or as the Chair of the board. In addition, each non-employee director receives an annual stock option allotment of 11,000 options. The annual option allowance for 2024 was increased by an additional 12,000 options per independent director in order to align each independent director’s option holdings with those of peer companies to Lexaria, as determined by a third party consultant. The non-employee directors have been granted an aggregate of 55,000 stock options with a calculated fair value of $34,107 and is included in consulting expense during the fiscal year 2025.

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for our independent Directors, except that they may receive additional stock options at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Transactions with Related Persons and Related Person Transaction Policy

No Director, executive officer, shareholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction since the beginning of the year ended August 31, 2025, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last two completed fiscal years.

Under our Code of Ethics, our senior financial officers are required to act with honesty and integrity, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships. In addition, our Audit and Finance Committee Charter provides that the Audit and Finance Committee will be responsible for the review of any related-party transactions.

Anti-Hedging Policy

We have not established any sort of anti-hedging policy that would prohibit our executive officers and Directors from hedging the economic interest of their stock ownership and holding shares of the Company’s common stock in a margin account or pledging shares as collateral for a loan.

Fees Paid to Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Audit Fees

MaloneBailey LLP has been appointed as our independent auditor since 2022 and has conducted the audits for our 2025 and 2024 fiscal years. The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal years ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant and to others for the provision of specialized advice for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:

	Year Ended
	August 31, 2025 $		August 31, 2024 $
Audit Fees		111,000		111,000
Audit Related Fees		118,800		53,700
Tax Fees		11,433		12,360
Total		241,233		177,060

Table of Contents

Audit fees consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements, reviews of our interim financial statements included in quarterly reports, services performed in connection with filings with the SEC and related comfort letters and other services that are normally provided by MaloneBailey LLP for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

MaloneBailey LLP will be submitted to the shareholders for ratification as to its continued appointment under Proposal 2 located at page 28.

Audit related Fees

Audit related fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services by Lexaria’s principal accountants for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Tax Fees

Tax fees consist of fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. These services include assistance regarding federal, state and local tax compliance and consultation in connection with various transactions and acquisitions.

All Other Fees

We did not use MaloneBailey LLP for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers.

Effective May 6, 2003, the SEC adopted rules that require that before our independent auditors are engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

	·	approved by our Audit and Finance Committee; or

	·	entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the Board of Directors is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the Board of Directors’ responsibilities to management.

Our Board of Directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Our Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.

PROPOSALS FOR SHAREHOLDER VOTE

Proposal 1

Election of Directors

Our Board of Directors has nominated the persons previously named under Director Nominees as candidates for Directors at the Meeting. These nominees are all of our current Directors and information regarding their expertise is provided under the Director Nominees section. Unless otherwise directed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the election of: Richard Christopher, John Docherty, Christopher Bunka, Ted McKechnie, Nicholas Baxter, Albert Reese Jr., and Bal Bhullar.

Each Director who is elected will hold office until the next Meeting of Shareholders and until their successor is elected and qualified. Any Director may resign their office at any time and may be removed at any time by the majority of votes of the shareholders given at a special meeting of our shareholders called for that purpose.

Vote Required

If a quorum exists, the nominees for director receiving a majority of the votes cast, will be elected as directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of this vote.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the nominees.

Proposal 2

Ratification of the Continued Appointment of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Our Audit and Finance Committee has directed our Board of Directors to ask our shareholders to ratify the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025 at a remuneration to be fixed by the Board. MaloneBailey LLP was first appointed in November 2022 by the Company as its independent registered public accounting firm.

Shareholder ratification of the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP is not required under Nevada corporate law or pursuant to our bylaws. However, our Board of Directors is submitting the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of corporate practice. If our shareholders fail to ratify the continued appointment, our Board of Directors will reconsider whether or not to retain the firm. Even if the appointment is ratified our Board of Directors, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if our Board of Directors determines that such a change would be in the best interest of our Company and our shareholders.

Representatives of MaloneBailey LLP are not expected to be present at the Meeting. However, we will provide contact information for MaloneBailey LLP to any shareholders who would like to contact the firm with questions and the firm will be expected to respond to any appropriate questions; however, if representatives from MaloneBailey LLP are present at the Meeting, they will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

Unless otherwise directed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the ratification of the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025.

At the Meeting the shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or via proxy will be asked to approve the following resolution by a simple majority:

“RESOLVED THAT the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is ratified, approved and confirmed and that the remuneration be fixed by the Board.”

Vote Required

The ratification of the appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are not votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of this vote. Broker non-votes are not expected for this proposal because we believe this matter is a routine matter. If there were to be any broker non-votes they would have no effect on this proposal.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the ratification of the continued appointment of MaloneBailey LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm as our auditors for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025 at a remuneration to be fixed by the Board.

Proposal 3

Ratification and Approval of Acts of the Directors

Since the date of the last meeting of shareholders, the Board of Directors have effected transactions, entered into contracts and have completed other lawful acts by and on behalf of the Company. At the Meeting, the shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or via proxy will be asked to approve the following resolution by way of a simple majority:

“RESOLVED THAT the lawful acts of the Directors made by and on behalf of the Company and effected since the date of the last shareholders’ meeting are hereby ratified and approved.”

Required Vote

The affirmative vote from the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the Ratification of the Acts of Directors at the Meeting is required for approval of this proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

Our Board of Directors recommends a vote in favour for the ratification of the Directors’ lawful acts.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

No Director, executive officer, or nominee for election as a Director of the Company and no associate of any of the foregoing persons has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holding or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting.

“HOUSEHOLDING” OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC permits companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and Annual Reports with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Proxy Statement or Annual Report, as applicable, addressed to those shareholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding”, potentially provides extra conveniences for shareholders and cost savings for companies.

Although we do not intend to household for our shareholders of record, some brokers household our proxy materials and Annual Reports, delivering a single copy of the Proxy Statement or Annual Report to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate copy of the Proxy Statement or Annual Report, or if you are receiving multiple copies of either document and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker. Shareholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Proxy Statement at their address from their brokers and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Shareholders may submit proposals or director nominations for inclusion by the Company in next year’s proxy statement. For your proposal or director nomination to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for next year’s Annual Meeting, your written proposal must be received by our corporate secretary at our principal executive office no later than 120 days before the anniversary of the release date of this Proxy Statement, unless the date of next year’s Annual Meeting is changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date of this year’s Meeting. If the date of next year’s Annual Meeting is changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date of this year’s Meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy materials. After such date, any shareholder proposal will be considered untimely.

Table of Contents

If we change the date of next year’s Annual Meeting by more than thirty (30) days from the date of this year’s Meeting, then the deadline is a reasonable time before we begin to print and distribute our proxy materials. You should also be aware that your proposal must comply with SEC regulations regarding inclusion of shareholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials, and with any provision in our bylaws regarding the same.

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. expects to hold its next Annual Meeting of shareholders in January 2027 with proxy materials expected to be published in December 2026. Proposals from shareholders intended to be present at the next Annual Meeting of shareholders should be addressed to Lexaria Bioscience Corp., 100 – 740 McCurdy Road, Kelowna, British Columbia, V1X 2P7, Canada, Attention: Corporate Secretary. We must receive the proposals by August 10, 2026. Upon receipt of any such proposal, we shall determine whether or not to include any such proposal in the Proxy Statement and proxy in accordance with applicable law. It is suggested that shareholders forward such proposals by Certified Mail-Return Receipt Requested. After September 15, 2026, any shareholder proposal will be considered to be untimely.

As to any proposal that a shareholder intends to present to shareholders other than by inclusion in our proxy statement for our 2027 Annual Meeting of shareholders, the proxies named in our proxy for that meeting will be entitled to exercise their discretionary voting authority on that proposal unless we receive notice of the matter to be proposed not later than Monday, September 15, 2026. Even if proper notice is received on or prior to that date, the proxies named in our proxy for that meeting may nevertheless exercise their discretionary authority with respect to such matter by advising shareholders of that proposal and how they intend to exercise their discretion to vote on such matter, unless the shareholder making the proposal solicits proxies with respect to the proposal to the extent required by Rule 14a-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

With respect to business to be brought before the Meeting, we have received no notices from our shareholders that we were required to include in this proxy statement.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

We file annual and other reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and these documents are available to the public from the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov. Additional information regarding our Company and our business activities is available on the SEDAR+ website located at www.sedarplus.ca and at our Company’s website located at http://www.lexariabioscience.com.
