The following is a transcript of a video interview
with Benjamin Lightburn, Chief Executive Officer of Filament Health Corp., on The Power Play by The Market Herald on July 25, 2023:
Coreena Robertson: Hello and welcome to
the Power Play. I’m Coreena Robertson. Filament Health is listing on the NASDAQ. Here with the details is CEO Ben Lightburn, Ben
pleasure to have you.
Ben Lightburn: Thanks so much for having
me on.
Coreena Robertson: And to get started let’s
just talk about what is Filament Health?
Ben Lightburn: Filament Health is a botanical,
psychedelic drug development company. What that means is we’ve developed proprietary technology for manufacturing botanical drugs
from natural psychedelic sources. What sets them apart from synthetic drugs is A) the manufacturing technology, which we have 17 issued
patents covering, as well as the fact that they contain all of the active secondary metabolites from the raw material. If you can imagine
magic mushrooms have much more than just psilocybin, they have psilocin, baeocystin, many other secondary compounds. That’s the
exact same for our drug products. They’re the first and only ones to contain, not just the primary metabolites, but also the secondary
metabolites, which, of course, mirrors how humans have been consuming these substances for thousands of years.
Coreena Robertson: All right, and you’ve
also had an exciting week announcing you’re uplisting to the NASDAQ through Jupiter Acquisition, tell us about that transaction
and what it means for your company.
Ben Lightburn: This transaction is extremely
positive news for Filament Health. We believe that the NASDAQ market has many more sophisticated and wealthy, obviously, investors that
will be much more able to appreciate our biotech drug development story. Relative to the NEO exchange in Canada. We came to an agreement
with Jupiter Acquisition which is already a NASDAQ listed, Special Purpose Acquisition Company or SPAC and we negotiated a very attractive
value for Filament shareholders which they will be given in shares of Jupiter upon the listing to NASDAQ. The definitive agreement has
been signed. That’s what was the big announcement last week. There’s still a few steps between now and closing. So stay tuned
for lots of very positive news in that regard, and our targeted close and listing is in Q4 of this year.
Coreena Robertson: All right, and you also
announced a non-brokered private placement, which you have closed for up to two million dollars. What are you going to do with the funds?
Ben Lightburn: So again very exciting news,
for Filament, we’re proud to be one of the few psychedelics companies that’s actually out there, raising money. There’s
been a lot of interest and excitement into what we’re doing. This round which we announced last week and then actually closed yesterday
and in fact it was upsized from 2 million to 2.5 million based on very strong demand, this round is going to be used for general working
capital but also to begin our two key clinical trials, one in methamphetamine use disorder, one in opioid use disorder. Methamphetamine
use disorder is a very large indication with approximately 1.5 million sufferers in the United States alone. There are no approved treatments
and the fatal overdose rate is growing by about 30 percent per year. Opioid use disorder is similar although there are already treatments
that are available as we all know they are often ineffective, poorly tolerated, and in many cases lead to relapse, and we are very excited
to be launching our PEX010 product in development programs for both methamphetamine use disorder and opioid use disorder. Ideally we’re
timing the start of these trials with the Nasdaq uplisting so lots of very very exciting things on the go.
Coreena Robertson: Yes and congratulations
Ben we look forward to continued updates. For the Power Play, I’m Coreena Robertson.

events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances
are beyond the control of Filament, TopCo and Jupiter. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
including (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Proposed Business
Combination; (ii) the failure of either Jupiter or Filament prior to the Proposed Business Combination, or TopCo after the Proposed Business
Combination, to execute their business strategy; (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Filament, TopCo
or Jupiter or others following the announcement of the Proposed Business Combination; (iv) the inability to complete the Proposed Business
Combination due to the failure to obtain any necessary interim order or other required court orders in respect of Filament’s statutory

to obtain the approval of Filament’s shareholders or Jupiter’s stockholders or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (v)
changes to the proposed structure of the Proposed Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws

Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Filament as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Proposed
Business Combination; (viii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination, which may be affected
by, among other things, competition and the ability of TopCo to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers
and retain its management and key employees; (ix) costs related to the Proposed Business Combination; (x) failure to comply with and stay
abreast of changes in laws or regulations applicable to Filament’s business, including health and safety regulations and policies;
(xi) Filament’s estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect to redemptions by Jupiter’s
stockholders and purchase price and other adjustments; (xii) any downturn or volatility in economic or business conditions; (xiii) the
effects of COVID-19 or other epidemics or pandemics; (xiv) changes in the competitive environment affecting Filament or its customers,
including Filament’s inability to introduce, or obtain regulatory approval for, new products; (xv) the failure to obtain additional
capital on acceptable terms; (xvi) the impact of pricing pressure and erosion; (xvii) failures or delay’s in Filament’s supply
chain; (xviii) Filament’s ability to protect its intellectual property and avoid infringement by others, or claims of infringement
against Filament; (xix) the possibility that Filament, TopCo or Jupiter may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive
factors; (xx) the failure of Filament or TopCo to respond to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and (xxi) Filament’s
estimates of its financial performance; and those factors discussed in documents of Jupiter or TopCo filed, or to be filed, with the SEC.
If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied
by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that none of Filament, TopCo or Jupiter presently knows or that Filament,
TopCo and Jupiter currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s expectations, plans, or
forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Filament, TopCo and Jupiter anticipate that subsequent events
and developments will cause Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s assessments to change. However, while Filament, TopCo
and Jupiter may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Filament, TopCo and Jupiter specifically
disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Filament’s, TopCo’s
or Jupiter’s assessments as of any date after the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon
the forward-looking statements.
