Notice-and-access: This Notice of Meeting is prepared under the notice-and-access rules that came into effect on February 11, 2013 under National Instrument 54-101 Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer. Notice-and-access is a set of rules intended to reduce the volume of materials that must be physically mailed to shareholders by allowing issuers to post the Management Information Circular and additional materials online. Aurinia has elected to use procedures known as stratification and will provide a paper copy of the Management Information Circular to some but not all of the shareholders. In relation to the meeting, the registered shareholders will receive a paper copy of the notice of meeting, the
Management Information Circular, and the form of proxy. Beneficial shareholders will receive a paper copy of the notice of meeting and a voting instruction form. In addition, a paper copy of this Management Information Circular will be mailed to those beneficial shareholders who have previously requested to receive a paper copy. Materials may be delivered electronically to shareholders. Please call Computershare Investor Services Inc. (Computershare), the transfer agent of Aurinia, toll free at 1-866-964-0492 if you have any questions about notice-and-access.
Management Information Circular: The Management Information Circular, audited financial statements and management discussion and analysis and additional materials are available on Aurinias pages on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on Aurinias website at www.auriniapharma.com.

Shareholders may obtain paper copies by: a) calling Aurinia toll free at 1-844-744-2487; or b) emailing Aurinia at lwalker@auriniapharma.com.
