This presentation is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and must be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the preliminary prospectus. Neither the Company nor any of the Underwriters has authorized anyone to provide prospective investors with different or additional information. If anyone provides prospective investors with additional or different or inconsistent information, including information or statements in media articles about the Company, prospective investors should not rely on it. Prospective investors should not assume that the information contained in this document is accurate as of any date other than the date of the preliminary prospectus, or where information is stated to be as of a date other than the date of the preliminary prospectus, such other applicable date. No securities regulatory authority has expressed an opinion about the securities described herein and it is an offence to claim otherwise. An investment in the securities described herein is speculative and involves a number of risks that should be considered by a prospective investor. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in the preliminary prospectus and other information included in the preliminary prospectus before investing in the Company and purchasing the securities described herein.

The Company is not offering, or soliciting offers to acquire, the securities described herein in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not permitted. For prospective investors outside Canada, neither the Company nor the Underwriters have done anything that would permit the offering or distribution of this document together with the preliminary prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required, other than in Canada. Prospective investors are required to informthemselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the offering and the distribution of this document and of the preliminary prospectus.

In this presentation, all amounts are in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Terms undefined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the preliminary prospectus.

Forward-looking InformationThis presentation contains “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking information may relate to the Company’s future outlook and anticipated events or results and may include information regarding the financial position, business strategy, growth strategy (including the objectives to open new stores, to drive annual SSSG (1) and to increase revenue and Operating EBITDA (1) over the next five to seven years), budgets, operations, financial results, taxes, dividends, plans and objectives of the Company. Particularly, information regarding future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities of the Company or the Canadian or U.S. market is forward-looking information. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “targets”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “an opportunity exists”, “is positioned”, “estimates”, “intends”, “assumes”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate” or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”.

Discussions containing forward-looking information in this presentation may be found, among other places, under the headings “Stable long-term growth”, “Future same store sales growth”, “Roadmap to growth – Continued implementation of enhanced store design”, “Roadmap to growth – Add stores in new, existing and satellite markets”, “Attractive financial model results in strong cash flow conversion”, “National scale has economic benefits”, “Regional dominance adds profitability and barrier to entry”, “Select Financial Highlights and Growth Targets”, “Capitalization”, “Investment Highlights” and “Summary of the Initial Public Offering”. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements relating to:

the Company’s expectations regarding its revenue, expenses and operations; the Company’s future growth plans, including new store openings and store closures, entry into existing, satellite and new markets, and acquisitions; the Company’s expectations with respect to SSSG and growth of revenue and Operating EBITDA; the Company’s expectations with respect to growth resulting from its marketing and advertising efforts; the Company’s expectations with respect to growth resulting from the continued implementation of the enhanced store design; the Company’s expectations with respect to growth resulting from the continued implementation of its sales associate training programs; the Company’s intention to declare dividends and the anticipated quantum of any dividends; the Company’s expectations with respect to its relationships with its suppliers; the Company’s expectations with respect to its ability to leverage its scale to improve margins; anticipated trends and challenges in the Company’s business and the market in which it operates; the Company’s anticipated use of the net proceeds of the Offering and completion of the Acquisition; and the market price for the Common Shares.

In addition, the Company’s assessment of potential new store openings and SSSG and increases in revenue and Operating EBITDA over the next five to seven years is considered forward-looking information. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SCCI — Outlook” in the preliminary prospectus for additional information concerning the Company’s strategies, assumptions and outlook in relation to this assessment.

These statements and other forward-looking information are based on opinions, assumptions and estimates made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that the Company believes are appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances, but there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. In addition, if any of the assumptions or estimates made by management prove to be incorrect, actual results and developments are likely to differ, and may differ materially, from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. Accordingly, prospective purchasers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of the opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date such statements are made, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to the following factors described in greater detail in “Risk Factors” in the preliminary prospectus: industry risk and economic sensitivity; effectiveness and efficiency of advertising expenditures; ability to maintain profitability and implement growth strategy; fluctuations in same store sales; damage to the Company’s reputation; competition; seasonality and weather; real estate; dependence on key personnel; labour relations; relationship with suppliers; intellectual property; dependence on distribution centres and timely delivery to customers; dependence on management information systems; insurance; comfort and price guarantees; debt covenants in New Credit Facility; dependence on operating subsidiaries; fluctuations in product cost, inflation and foreign currency; legal proceedings; government regulation; third-party consumer financing arrangements; absence of a prior public market for the Offered Shares; price volatility of the Offered Shares; forward-looking information; risks relating to the Acquisition; significant ownership by the Birch Hill Entities; future sales of Common Shares by the Birch Hill Entities and directors and officers of the Company; payment of dividends; pro forma financial information; public company status; financial reporting and other public company requirements; dilution; and securities analysts’ research or reports could impact the price of the Common Shares. These factors and assumptions are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors and assumptions that could affect the Company. These factors and assumptions, however, should be considered carefully.

All of the forward-looking information in this presentation is qualified by these cautionary statements. Statements containing forward-looking information contained herein are made only as of the date of the preliminary prospectus. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or alter statements containing any forward-looking information, or the factors or assumptions underlying them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Non-IFRS Measures and Retail Industry Metrics

3

This presentation makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. They are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. The Company uses non-IFRS measures, including “Adjusted Net Income”, “EBITDA”, “Free Cash Flow”, “Free Cash Flow Conversion”, “Operating EBITDA” and “Working Capital”. This presentation also makes reference to certain operating metrics that are commonly used in the retail industry, including “AUSP”, “conversion” and “Same Store Sales Growth” or “SSSG”. These non-IFRS measures and retail industry operating metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of the Company’s operating performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and these retail industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers and to compare the Company’s performance against others in the retail industry. The Company’s management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and to determine components of management compensation. See “Selected Consolidated Financial Information” in the preliminary prospectus.

Prospective investors should review this information in conjunction with SCCI’s consolidated financial statements and the Company’s pro forma financial statements, including the notes thereto, as well as “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SCCI”, “Use of Proceeds”, “Capitalization” and “Description of Material Indebtedness”, included in the preliminary prospectus.

Description of Non-IFRS Measures and Retail Industry Metrics

40

The financial statements included in the preliminary prospectus have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and accounting policies adopted in accordance with IFRS. However, this presentation makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures including:

“Adjusted Net Income” is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for: (i) interest expense on the Series A and Series B promissory notes of SCCI; (ii) interest expense and fair value adjustment on Class A convertible shares and Class B common shares of SCCI; (iii) reduction in management bonuses; (iv) reduction in management compensation; (v) certain non-recurring items (shareholder capital reorganization, professional fees and customer deposit breakages and other provision); and (vi) share based compensation.

“AUSP” is defined as the average unit selling price of a mattress or foundation.

“EBITDA” is defined as net earnings (loss) from continuing operations before: (i) net interest expense and other financing charges; (ii) income taxes; (iii) depreciation of property, plant and equipment; and (iv) amortization of other assets.

“Conversion” is defined as the number of customers who entered a store and made a purchase divided by the total number of customers who entered the store (expressed as a percentage).

“Free Cash Flow” is defined as EBITDA less: (i) maintenance capital expenditures; and (ii) changes in Working Capital.

“Free Cash Flow Conversion” is defined as Free Cash Flow divided by EBITDA.

“Operating EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for: (i) reduction in management bonuses; (ii) reduction in management compensation; (iii) certain non-recurring items (shareholder reorganization, professional fees and customer deposit breakages and other provision); and (iv) share based compensation.

“Same Store Sales Growth” or “SSSG” is a retail industry metric used to compare sales derived from the established stores of certain period over the same period in prior year. SSSG helps to explain what portion of sales growth can be attributed to growth in established stores and what portion can be attributed to the opening of the new stores. Sleep Country calculates SSSG as the percentage increase or decrease in sales of stores opened for at least 12 complete months relative to the same period in the prior year.

“Working Capital” is defined as the sum of trade and other receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses and deposits less trade and other payables and customer deposits.

These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. They are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS.

See “Selected Consolidated Financial Information” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SCCI” in the preliminary prospectus.
