Historical results of operations and trends that may be inferred from the following discussions and analysis may not necessarily indicate future results from operations.
1.2 Over-all Performance
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia on August 15, 2019. The Company is a Capital Pool Company (“CPC”) as its principal business is the identification and evaluation of assets or businesses with a view to completing a Qualifying Transaction (“QT”) in accordance with Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”)
On May 8, 2020, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on the TSX-V raising $200,000 through the issuance of 2,000,000 common shares of the Company at $0.10 per share. The Company’s common shares were approved for listing on the TSX-V on May 8, 2020 and commenced trading effective May 12, 2020 under the symbol “IL.P”.
On October 8, 2020, the Company entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Waveforce Electronics Inc. (“Waveforce”) to acquire a consumer wellness enhancement membership program. On February 17, 2021, the LOI was mutually terminated by both parties.
On March 27, 2021, the Company entered into a letter of intent(“LOI”) with FREmedica Technologies Inc.(“FREmedica”) pursuant to which the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of the FREmedica Technologies ( the “Transaction”), which could qualify as the Company’s QT. See 1.11 Proposed Transactions for details of the transaction .
FREmedica is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waveforce, a developer of light pulse frequency emitter platforms for different industries to assist in improving performance in people, plants and products. FREmedica was

founded on November 5, 2016 for the purpose of creating a frequency emitter that delivers a special package of frequencies designed for the health and wellness market, specifically to target Lyme disease within North America.
The Company has not commenced operations and has no assets other than cash. The Company’s continuing operations as intended are dependent upon its ability to identify, evaluate and negotiate an acquisition, or business, or an interest therein. Such an acquisition will be subject to the approval of the regulatory authorities concerned and in the case of a non-arms’ length transaction, of the majority of the minority shareholders.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak a pandemic, which continues to spread globally. As a CPC with no commercial operations, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a significant impact on the Company’s routine operations or on the carrying value of its assets. However, the pandemic’s effect on broader capital markets may hinder the Company’s ability to complete a QT and to raise capital.

ISRAEL CAPITAL CANADA CORP. Management Discussion & Analysis April 30, 2021
During the six months ended April 30, 2021, the Company spent $43,827 (2020 - $69,934) in operating activities. The Company did not raise additional capital (2020 - $100,000) though common share financing.
The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern with a view of completing its QT. The Company will have no revenue, and significant expenses are expected in the process of identification and acquisition of qualifying asset.
The Company may continue to have capital requirements in excess of its currently available resources. The other sources of funds potentially available to the Company are through the exercise of outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants. See item 1.15 – Other Requirements – Summary of outstanding share data. In the event the Company’s plans change, its assumptions change or prove inaccurate, or its capital resources in addition to projected cash flow, if any, prove to be insufficient to fund operations, the Company may be required to seek additional financing, subject to the TSX-V policies and approval.
There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient financing to meet its future capital requirements or that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company in the future.
1.7 Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not utilize off-balance sheet arrangements.
1.8 Risk and Uncertainties
The Company’s financial performance is likely to be subject to the following risks:
-
Although management of the Company is working diligently to complete the QT, there is no assurance that a QT will be entered into nor completed.
-
The Company was incorporated on August 15, 2019, has not commenced commercial operations, has not generated any revenue and has no assets other than cash.
-
Until completion of a QT, the Company is not permitted to carry on any business other than the identification and evaluation of potential QTs.
-
The Company has limited funds, with which to identify, evaluate and complete a potential QT and continue its business operations.
-
Completion of the QT is subject to a number of conditions including acceptance by the TSX-V, securities regulatory authorities and the shareholders’ approval, if required.
The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from a customer or third party to a financial instrument failing to meet its contractual obligations. The Company limits exposure to credit risk by maintaining its cash with a major Canadian financial institution.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient readily available reserves in order to meet its liquidity requirements at any point in time. The Company achieves this by maintaining sufficient cash and seeking equity financing when needed. As at April 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $390,991

ISRAEL CAPITAL CANADA CORP. Management Discussion & Analysis April 30, 2021
(October 31, 2020 – $434,818) which is sufficient to settle its current liabilities of $55,695 (October 31, 2020 - $22,000).
Pursuant to the policies of the TSX-V, the proceeds raised from the issuance of common shares may only be used to identify and evaluate assets or businesses for future investment, with the exception that not more than the lesser of 30% of the gross proceeds from the issuance of shares or $210,000 may be used to cover prescribed costs of issuing the common shares or for administrative and general expenses. These restrictions apply until completion of the Company’s Qualifying Transaction as defined by TSX-V Policy 2.4.
Effective January 1, 2021, the Exchange amended its Policy 2.4. Under the amended policy, a CPC may only incur expenses to operate its business to identify and evaluate assets or business for a proposed QT; reasonable expenses related to the CPC’s IPO and prescribed costs of issuing the common shares and maintaining the CPC’s regulatory requirements; and reasonable general and administrative expenses of the CPC not exceeding $3,000 per month.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices.
(a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
(b) Foreign currency risk
The Company does not have assets or liabilities in a foreign currency and therefore is not exposed to foreign currency risk.
(c) Price risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potentially adverse impact on the Company’s ability to obtain equity financing due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. The Company closely monitors individual equity movements and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
1.9 Transactions with Related Parties
Key management personnel are persons responsible for planning, directing and controlling activities of an entity, and include executive and non-executive directors and officers.
On July 1, 2020, the Company entered into an administrative services agreement with Varshney Capital Corp. (“VCC”), a company with a director in common, for administrative services provided to the Company for an initial term of 120 days or until the Company completes a QT in exchange for a monthly fee of $1,500 plus taxes.

1.11 Proposed Transactions
On March 27, 2021 the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with FREmedica Technologies Inc. (Note 1), which sets out the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of FREmedica in exchange for 18,000,000 common shares (the “Payment Shares”) in the capital of the Company, which Payment Shares the Company will issue to Waveforce Electronic Inc. (“Waveforce”), the parent company of FREmedica. The intention is for the Transaction to constitute the Company’s Qualifying Transaction, as such term is defined under the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) Policy 2.4 – Capital Pool Companies (the “CPC Policy”).
On completion of the Transaction, the Company intends to be listed on the Exchange as a Tier 2 technology issuer and will principally focus on continuing and developing the business of FREmedica. FREmedica is applying for a patent for the formulation of frequencies that they have captured and packaged to help manage the symptoms of Lyme disease. The frequency package is delivered by a frequency emitter which FREmedica has designed. The frequencies are downloaded from an app, which delivers the frequencies to an upgradeable wearable device called “Wave 1” that transmits the frequencies in a conformable pattern using light diodes onto the skin.
The directors and officers of the Company own approximately 19.49% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Waveforce. Stephen Davis, the CEO and a director of the Company, is the Chairman and a director of Waveforce. Dr. Keith Pyne - a director of the Company - is also a director of Waveforce. The Transaction, therefore, is considered a Non-Arm’s Length Qualifying Transaction under the CPC Policy. In accordance with the rules of the Exchange, the Company will seek shareholder approval for the Qualifying Transaction by written consent of the “majority of the minority” or by holding a shareholders’ meeting.
Terms of the Transaction
Under the terms of the Letter Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of FREmedica from Waveforce in exchange for the Payment Shares and a 10% royalty payable to Waveforce in exchange for the frequency capture technology, secure storage of frequencies and the platform for the delivery of frequencies through the Wave 1 frequency emitter. In addition, the Company has agreed to settle outstanding shareholder loans provided by Waveforce to FREmedica in the approximate amount of $1,245,000 through the issuance of 3,557,143 common shares in the capital of the Company at a deemed price of $0.35 per common share (the “Debt Settlement”). The Debt Settlement is subject to acceptance by the Exchange and disinterested shareholder approval in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, which the Company will seek to obtain.

ISRAEL CAPITAL CANADA CORP. Management Discussion & Analysis April 30, 2021
In addition, the Company has agreed to change its name to FREmedica Inc. or such another name as the parties may decide following completion of the Transaction. The current directors of the Company will have an option to remain on the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) for one year following completion of the Transaction. The Company will grant FREmedica a right to nominate one additional director for appointment to the Board, subject to acceptance by the Exchange and all required shareholder approvals. The Company has also agreed to advance up to $25,000 to FREmedica, subject to Exchange approval, which FREmedica will use to pay for its audit and legal fees.
The Letter Agreement provides that the parties will execute a comprehensive agreement (the “Formal Agreement”) to supersede the Letter Agreement by April 30, 2021. The Formal Agreement will contain all customary representation and warranties, covenants, provision of legal opinions, and other items that would normally appear in a comprehensive agreement covering such matters. The Letter Agreement remains binding and enforceable until the Formal Agreement is executed or until April 30, 2021.
The Company does not anticipate paying any finder’s fees on the Transaction. Further details of the Transaction will follow in future news releases.
Proposed Business
The Company intends to develop and deliver frequency packages to purchasers and users of the Wave 1 device developed by Waveforce and FREmedica. The Company plans to develop other devices capable of delivering frequency packages in the future. The Wave 1 is intended to receive from the cloud software programing data and then emit layered frequency recordings tailored to the user. The Company intends to offer an increasing variety of light pulse frequency packages to members and clients. These frequency packages will be built by the Company or will be licensed by the Company from third parties.
The licenses and underlying technology were developed over a 5-year period. Waveforce and FREmedica spent approximately $642,000 in development costs with third party consultants and engineers. This cost does not include the time and cost associated with in-house development and testing of the device and software by Waveforce and FREmedica.
The Company expects to obtain immediate ongoing revenue from acquiring FREmedica. The Wave 1 device has generated approximately $1,937,000 in gross revenues for FREmedica to date through the initial test markets for 2019 and 2020. The foregoing costs and revenue have not been audited.
Currently, FREmedica is focused on exclusively selling the Wave1 device and Lyme related frequency packages to those who have been diagnosed with Lyme disease. Lyme disease is the most common tickborne disease affecting human and dog health in North America and Europe. If left untreated, it is believed the disease can progress to arthritic, cardiac, and neurological manifestations. According to the Global Lyme Alliance, approximately, 476,000 people a year are diagnosed with Lyme disease in the United States. Scientists estimated that two million people could suffer from post-treatment Lyme disease by 2020. Lyme disease has also been found in 80 additional countries. Cases of Lyme disease continues to outpace other infectious diseases in the U.S. by significant margins. In fact, there are 618% more new cases of Lyme disease in the U.S. than Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and West Nile Virus combined. This doesn’t even take into account the growing number of other tick-borne infections. (https://globallymealliance.org/about-lyme). The North American total addressable market of potential consumers for the Wave 1 and Lyme related frequency packages is valued at approximately $785 million annually.

Further details regarding the Offering will be included in a subsequent news release once additional details become available.
