While an investment issuer under the name of QuestCap and prior to becoming a single purpose medical company and embarking on its current Telehealth focus, Medivolve had focused its investment strategy in three areas:

MedQuest

The COVID-19 pandemic is threatening societies across the world. This virus has created serious challenges but also new opportunities to bring life-saving technology and therapies to market. MedQuest is pursuing numerous investments in health sciences to help advance and develop products used to detect, treat, and overcome COVID-19. MedQuest is looking to invest in opportunities that will: improve testing around the world, source effective therapies, and develop a lasting cure.

ClimateQuest

Anthropogenic climate change is threatening to drastically alter the environments we inhabit and the way we live. In order to prevent further degradation of our planet, it is imperative that mankind adopt new technologies and systems that limit, eliminate, or remove greenhouse gas emissions. The crisis is understood, and numerous organizations and entrepreneurs have produced powerful innovations but lack the resources to commercialize them. Our experienced team will source, review and identify meaningful investment opportunities in sustainable initiatives that have the potential to produce tangible environmental impacts.

TechQuest

Disruptive innovation changed transportation from horseback to cars, communication from landlines to cellphones, and entertainment from cable to streaming video. TechQuest aims to continue human evolution by sourcing and financing ground-breaking technology, procedures, and platforms. We will work with innovators and developers to fund their passions and help turn them into reality. Partnering with visionaries at the seed-stage has the potential to create exceptional value for TechQuest investors.

Subsequently the Company decided to redeploy its resources to become a single purpose medical company and as discussed above.

Effective October 15, 2020, the Company up-listed to the NEO Exchange (“NEO”) concurrent with the transition to a single purpose company from an investment issuer, redeploying its assets and resources to be a single purpose medical company. The NEO is considered a senior Canadian exchange akin to the Toronto Stock Exchange, however it offers issuers and investors enhanced liquidity, greater visibility, and lower fees. In conjunction with this uplisting, after listing on the Company arranged for the delisting from the Canadian Stock Exchange (CSE), effective the close of trading on October 14, 2020. The Company continued to trade under the symbol “QSC” until December 29 when we changed our name to “Medivolve Inc.” (“Medivolve”) in conjunction with its transition to a single purpose medical company. Trading of the Company’s shares under the new name and new ticker “MEDV” on the NEO commenced on January 7, 2021.

(“PCL”), a South Korean company, to secure the exclusive right to distribute and market PCL’s various technologies, tests and kits, including specifically PCL’s proprietary COVID-19 lgG/lgM Rapid Gold Tests in the United States and Canada with selling rights in Mexico and South America.

12

Under the profit-sharing agreement, Medivolve would receive 40% of the net profits in connection with, or in any way related to MJTR’s relationship with PCL and /or sales of the antibody tests. As consideration, the Company was obliged to issue 10,000,000 common shares (a total of 5,000,000 shares subject to milestones based on the sales of the tests, and the remaining 5,000,000 shares upon MTJR’s satisfaction of all conditions under the supply agreement).

The Company was obliged to use its best efforts to work with MJTR to deliver, or cause to be delivered: (i) up to US$250,000 to MJTR in reimbursement for actual costs in connection with the product and the implementation of the supply agreement and (ii) $US10,000,000 to MJTR for the purchase of the tests from PCL, which amount is to be reduced by deposits received by MJTR from third-party purchasers of the tests.

On April 23, 2020, the Company issued a promissory note (the ”Note”) in the amount of USD$7,700,000 ($9,803,640) to an arms length, third-party lender (the “Lender”) to fund a portion of the initial cash payment. MJTR was obliged, prior to making any payments from the gross proceeds received from the sale of products or any business with PCL, to apply all or any portion of such proceeds to repay any and all funds advanced to MTJR by the Company, including the reimbursement amount.

No interest is payable under the terms of the Note.

Subsequently, it was determined that the test kits could not be sold in the United States as they did not meet the emergency use provision of the FDA. As a result, the Company and MTJR are seeking to have the funds paid to PCL refunded in their entirety. As this is a contingency related to a possible gain that is not virtually certain to occur, no amounts have been recognized in these financial statements related to the refund.

In addition, as a result of the test kits not being available to sell in the United stated, the profit sharing agreement with MTJR has been terminated.

As additional consideration for providing the Note, the Company has agreed to pay the Lender an origination fee of US$1,300,000 and to issue to the Lender 6,000,000 common shares as, subject to any applicable regulatory approvals. The origination fee forms part of the principal owing under the Note, consequently USD$9,000,000 is due at maturity. The 6,000,000 common shares were issued to the Lender on April 23, 2020 with as estimated fair value of $2,790,000 based on the closing price of the share on the date of issuance.

The Note provides for security over all of the assets of the Company and was due within 60 days from the date of issuance. On June 25, 2020, the Lender approved a 60-day extension of the loan. On October 21, 2020, the Company signed a 90-day 12% loan agreement with the Lender for CAD $600,000. On November 10, the Company repaid CAD $1,600,000 as partial payment against the US$7.7 million promissory note.

The Company has a 40% profit sharing agreement with MTJR. MTJR has completed the sale of 750,000 PCL Rapid Gold COVID-19 IgG/IgM Antibody tests to Breeze Laboratories, a medical manufacturing company with well-developed distribution channels, for US$4.00 per test. The proceeds from the sale will be returned to the Company and used to repay a portion the outstanding loan commitment. Breeze Laboratories has the necessary regulatory approvals and licenses from the Colombian authorities to import and distribute the PCL COVID-19 IgG/IgM Antibody tests and they have now arrived in Columbia. Breeze’s intention is to market the kits through institutional and retail sales channels. To date no funds have been retuned to MTJR for the sale of the Kits.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, a 10% decrease in the value of these concentrated positions would result in a decrease in before-tax income of approximately $316,000.

Capital Management

The Company considers its capital structure to consist of share capital, share purchase options, share purchase warrants and loans. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments based on the funds available to support its capital management objectives:

  • a) to allow the Company to respond to changes in economic and/or marketplace conditions by maintaining the Company’s ability to purchase new investments;

  • b) to give shareholders sustained growth in value by increasing shareholders’ equity; while

  • c) taking a conservative approach towards financial leverage and management of financial risks

The management and board of directors of the Company review its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believe it reflects a reasonable approach given the relative size of the Company’s assets. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements other than those of the NEO Exchange.

Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Fair value

25

IFRS requires that the Company disclose information about the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value estimates are made at the statements of financial position date, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties in significant matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates.

The Company has determined the carrying values of its financial instruments as follows:

  • i. The carrying values of cash, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrual liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

  • ii. Public and private investments and notes and loans receivable are carried at amounts in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies as set out in Note 2 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as at December 31, 2020:

The public investment in Sulliden Mining Capital is classified as a Level 1 investment, as the shares were released from escrow on May 1, 2020. The public investment in Last Mile Holdings Ltd. (formerly OjO Electric Corp.) is classified as a Level 2 investment, as the shares were held in escrow at December 31, 2020. The loan receivable from Newdene Gold Inc. and has a conversion feature. On December 1, 2020, Newdene repaid the loan principal plus interest of $338,360. The repayment was held in trust and received subsequent to December 31, 2020.

Within Level 3, the Company includes private company investments that are not quoted on an exchange. The key assumptions used in the valuation of these investments include (but are not limited to) the value at which a recent financing was done by the investee, company-specific information, trends in general market conditions and the share performance of comparable publicly traded companies.

The following table presents the fair value, categorized by key valuation techniques and the unobservable inputs used within Level 3 as at December 31, 2020:

Amino Therapeutics Inc. (“Amino”)

The Company invested 40% interest of Amino for 15 million shares of the Company in April 2020 and $2 million cash payable from July 2020 to December 2021 with an estimated fair value of $7,009,438 done through an independent valuation, and the fair value as at December 31, 2020 was estimated at $3,162,369. A 10% change in fair value would result in a change of income of approximately $316,237 at December 31, 2020. Had the Company applied a marketability discount of 5%, it would have resulted in a corresponding decrease of approximately $151,000 in income.

Athletic and Health Solutions Inc. (“A&H”)

The Company invested in A&H for 6 million shares of the Company in April 2020 with an estimated fair value of $3,000,000. The Company has wrote down the fair value of the investment at December 31, 2020 to reflect the sale of A&H to an arm’s-length company for $1 subsequent to the year-end.

Glenco Medical (“Glenco”)

The Company invested in Glenco for 12 million shares of the Company in June 2020 with an estimated fair value of $2,220,000.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Subject to the limitations, if any, described below, the Company’s CEO and CFO have, as at the end of the year ended December 31, 2020, designed Disclosure and Control Procedures, (“DC&P”) or caused it to be designed under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance that:

27

  • Material information relating to the issuer is made known to us by others, particularly during the period in which the interim filings are being prepared; and

  • Information required to be disclosed by the issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation;

Internal control over financial reporting has been designed, based on the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.

Management, under the supervision of the CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the framework designed as described above and based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls can provide only reasonable assurances and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Furthermore, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The CEO and CFO have certified that Internal Controls over Financial Reporting have been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. The Audit Committee of the Company has reviewed this MD&A, and the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended DEcember 31, 2020, and the Company’s board of directors approved these documents prior to their release.

New accounting pronouncements

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company adopted a number of amendments and improvements of existing standards. These included IAS 1, IFRS 3. These new standards and changes did not have any material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Certain pronouncements were issued by the IASB or the IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods commencing on or after January 1, 2021. Many are not applicable or do not have a significant impact to the Company and have been excluded.

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) was amended in January 2020 to provide a more general approach to the classification of liabilities under IAS 1 based on the contractual arrangements in place at the reporting date. The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent is based solely on a company’s right to defer settlement at the reporting date. The right needs to be unconditional and must have substance. The amendments also clarify that the transfer of a company’s own equity instruments is regarded as settlement of a liability, unless it results from the exercise of a conversion option meeting the definition of an equity instrument. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023.

28

IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities, and Contingent Assets (“IAS 37”) was amended. The amendments clarify that when assessing if a contract is onerous, the cost of fulfilling the contract includes all costs that relate directly to the contract – i.e. a full-cost approach. Such costs include both the incremental costs of the contract (i.e. costs a company would avoid if it did not have the contract) and an allocation of other direct costs incurred on activities required to fulfill the contract – e.g. contract management and supervision, or depreciation of equipment used in fulfilling the contract. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2022.

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) was amended. The amendments introduce new exceptions to the recognition and measurement principles in IFRS 3 to ensure that the update in references to the revised conceptual framework does not change which assets and liabilities qualify for recognition in a business combination. An acquirer should apply the definition of a liability in IAS 37 – rather than the definition in the Conceptual Framework – to determine whether a present obligation exists at the acquisition date as a result of past events. For a levy in the scope of IFRIC 21, the acquirer should apply the criteria in IFRIC 21 to determine whether the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay the levy has occurred by the acquisition date. In addition, the amendments clarify that the acquirer should not recognize a contingent asset at the acquisition date. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2022.

Critical Judgments and Estimation Uncertainties

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised, and the revision affects both current and future periods.

Information about critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

  • Fair value of investments not quoted in an active market or private company investments Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible, but where observable market data are not available, judgment is required to establish fair values.

  • Fair value of financial derivatives Investments in options and warrants which are not traded on a recognized securities exchange do not have a readily available market value. When there are sufficient and reliable observable market inputs, a valuation technique is used; if no such market inputs are available, the warrants and options are observed at intrinsic value.

  • Fair value/impairment of loans receivable The recoverability of loans receivable is assessed when events occur indicating impairment. Recoverability is based on factors such as failure to pay interest on time and failure to pay the principal. An impairment loss is recognized in the period when it is determined that the carrying amount of the assets will not be recoverable. Convertible debentures and convertible notes issued to publicly traded companies are carried at the higher of the loan receivable value of the fair value of the common shares or units receivable from the conversion assuming the conversion can be done at the Company’s option.

29

  • Share-based payments The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to fair value options in order to calculate share-based compensation expense. The Black-Scholes model involves six key inputs to determine the fair value of an option: risk-free interest rate, exercise price, market price of the Company’s shares at date of issue, expected dividend yield, expected life, and expected volatility. Certain inputs are estimates which involve considerable judgment and are, or could be, affected by factors that are out of the Company’s control.

  • Investment entity Management has determined that the Company qualifies for the exemption from consolidation given that the Company has the following typical characteristics of an investment entity:

  • a) obtains funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing those investor(s) with investment management services;

  • b) commits to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and

  • c) measures and evaluates the performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is exposed to a number of risks, which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. The following outlines certain risk factors specific to the Company. These risk factors could materially affect the Company’s future results and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward–looking information relating to the Company.

An investment in securities of the Company is subject to certain risks, which should be carefully considered by prospective investors before purchasing the securities. In addition to the other information set out in this MD&A, investors should carefully consider the risk factors referred to below. Any one of such risk factors could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition and/or future operating results and prospects and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements and information relating to the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently identified by the Company or that the Company currently believes not to be material also may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operations or prospects. Investors should also carefully consider the risks described in the Company’s other public disclosure documents available on SEDAR, including its financial statements and MD&A.

Limited Operating History

The Company has a limited operating history and its business is subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. The Company’s likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with establishing a new business.

COVID-19

Since very early in 2020, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of

30

the government and central bank interventions. As the Company’s current business focus is on mobile COVID-19 testing, the Company’s financial performance is significantly linked to the future need for such testing. However, a continuation of the pandemic could also constrain the Company’s ability to pursue other opportunities in the medical and related technology sectors.

Permitting and Licensing

The Company’s ability to develop its business may be dependent on obtaining licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. The process for obtaining and renewing licenses and permits from governmental authorities often takes an extended period of time and is subject to numerous delays, costs and uncertainties. Any unexpected delays or costs or failure to obtain such licenses or permits associated with the permitting process could delay or prevent the commercialization of the Company’s business.

The Company’s licenses and permits are subject to change in various circumstances. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in injunctions, fines, suspensions or revocation of permits and licenses, and other penalties. There can be no assurance that the Company has been or will be at all times in compliance with all such laws and regulations and with its licenses and permits or that the Company has all required licenses and permits in connection with its businesses. The Company may be unable, on a timely basis, to obtain, renew or maintain in the future all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to operate its business.

Availability of Supplies and Skilled Labour

Profitability is affected by the market prices and availability of supplies that the Company uses or consumes for its operations and new products, which are sourced from a limited number of suppliers. The Company’s operations depend on suppliers to meet those needs. The Company does have long term contracts with its suppliers. For example, any failure to source testing kits or the materials required to construct its mobile testing hubs could significantly hamper the Company’s current business plan. Similarly, any inability to secure sufficient laboratory access to support its testing could significantly impact the Company’s financial health.

Higher worldwide demand for critical supplies and skilled labour could affect the Company’s ability to acquire them and lead to delays in delivery and unanticipated cost increases, which could have an effect on its operating costs, capital expenditures and revenue. Additionally, the Company will be relying on certain key third-party suppliers and contractors for equipment, raw materials and services used in, and the provision of services necessary for its business activities. As a result, its operations will be subject to a number of risks, some of which are outside of its control, including negotiating agreements with suppliers and contractors on acceptable terms, the inability to replace a supplier or contractor and its equipment, raw materials or services in the event that either party terminates the agreement, interruption of operations or increased costs in the event that a supplier or contractor ceases its business due to insolvency or other unforeseen events, and failure of a supplier or contractor to perform under its agreement with the Company or to support its future demand. The occurrence of one or more of these risks could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Commercializing its Products and Services

The Company is in the early stages of building out its COVID-19 testing centres. At the same time, the Company is pursuing other opportunities in the medical technology and related sectors. If the Company is unable to establish sales and marketing capabilities or enter into partnerships and other agreements with

31

third parties to host its testing centres or to sell and market its services, the Company may not be successful in commercializing its products and services. The Company does not have a significant sales or marketing infrastructure in place. To achieve commercial success for any of its products or services in the future, the Company must either develop a sales and marketing organization or outsource these functions to third parties. If the Company does not establish such sales and marketing capabilities successfully, it will not be successful in commercializing its products and services.

The Company is dependent on a small number of key partners that have agreed to host the Company’s mobile testing centres. Any loss of any of these key partners, or the failure to enter into agreements with additional third parties to host testing centres, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s ability to achieve its build-out objectives for its COVID-19 mobile testing centres.

Impact of Laws

The Company operates in Canada and the United States any may eventually expand into other countries. The Company is and will be subject to a variety of laws in Canada, the United States and abroad, including laws regarding health and safety, consumer protection, privacy, intellectual property and taxation that are continuously evolving and developing. The scope, enforcement and interpretation of the laws that are or may be applicable to the Company are often uncertain and may be conflicting. Compliance with applicable laws or regulations could be very difficult or liability could arise under these laws or regulations due to amendments to or evolving interpretation and enforcement of such laws and regulations. As a result, the Company could be directly harmed, and may be forced to implement new measures to reduce the exposure to this liability. This may require substantial resources to be expended or a modification of its products and services, which would harm the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

Competition

The COVID-19 testing sector in particular and the medical technology industry in general is highly competitive. Competition could prevent the Company from achieving its proposed build-out of its mobile testing centres on a profitable basis, from securing sufficient access to testing kits and laboratories or from securing sufficient customers to achieve its business plan. More generally, competition may result in the Company being unable to: make accretive acquisitions; recruit or retain qualified employees or consultants; obtain necessary financing or capital; or achieve its projected financial performance. Increased competition could result in increased costs and lower prices for the Company’s products which, in turn, could reduce profitability. Consequently, the Company’s revenues, operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Dependence on Management Personnel

The Company is dependent upon the efforts, skill and business contacts of key members of management, the board of directors of the Company and the advisory board of the Company, for among other things, the information and deal flow they generate during the normal course of their activities and the synergies that exist amongst their various fields of expertise and knowledge. Accordingly, the Company’s success may depend upon the continued service of these individuals who are not obligated to remain consultants to the Company. The loss of the services of any of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues, net income and cash flows and could harm its ability to maintain or grow existing assets and raise additional funds in the future.

32

Management of the Company’s Growth

Significant growth in the business, as a result of acquisitions or otherwise, could place a strain on the Company’s managerial, operational and financial resources and information systems. Future operating results will depend on the ability of senior management to manage rapidly changing business conditions, and to implement and improve the Company’s technical, administrative and financial controls and reporting systems. No assurance can be given that the Company will succeed in these efforts. The failure to effectively manage and improve these systems could increase costs, which could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and overall performance.

Exchange Rate Fluctuations

The Company conducts business with entities located in foreign jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could significantly affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Tax

No assurance can be given that new taxation rules will not be enacted or existing rules will not be applied in a manner which could result in the Company being subject to additional taxation or which could otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results from operations and financial condition.

The Company may be subject to limitations on the repatriation of earnings in each of the countries where the Company does business. In particular, there may be significant withholding taxes applicable to the repatriation of funds from foreign countries to Canada. There can be no assurance that changes in regulations, including tax treaties, in and among the relevant countries where the Company or its investee companies do business will not take place, and if such changes occur, they may adversely impact the Company’s ability to receive sufficient cash payments from its subsidiaries.

Litigation Risks

Litigation and other claims may arise in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and, in addition to product or services-oriented allegations and personal injury claims, litigation could include securities law compliance, employee and customer claims, commercial disputes and intellectual property issues. These claims can raise complex factual and legal issues that are subject to risks and uncertainties and could require significant management time. Litigation and other claims against the Company, even if the Company is ultimately successful, could result in unexpected expenses and liabilities, which could materially adversely affect its operations, reputation and financial condition.

Cybersecurity Threats and Privacy Breaches

The Company relies on secure and adequate operations of information technology systems in the conduct of its operations. Access to and security of the information technology systems are critical to its operations. To the Company’s knowledge, it has not experienced any material losses relating to disruptions to its information technology systems. The Company has implemented ongoing policies, controls and practices to manage and safeguard the Company, its clients and its stakeholders from internal and external cybersecurity threats and to comply with changing legal requirements and industry practice. Given that cyber risks cannot be fully mitigated and the evolving nature of these threats, the Company may not have the resources or technical sophistication to anticipate, prevent, or recover from cyber-attacks and cannot assure that its information technology systems are fully protected from cybercrime or that the systems will not be inadvertently compromised, or without failures or defects. Disruptions to the Company’s information technology systems, including, without limitation, security breaches, power loss, theft, computer viruses,

33

cyber-attacks, natural disasters, and non-compliance by third-party service providers and inadequate levels of cybersecurity expertise and safeguards of third-party information technology service providers, may adversely affect the operations of the Company as well as present significant costs and risks including, without limitation, loss or disclosure of confidential, proprietary, personal or sensitive information and thirdparty data, material adverse effect on its financial performance, compliance with its contractual obligations, compliance with applicable laws, damaged reputation, remediation costs, potential litigation, regulatory enforcement proceedings and heightened regulatory scrutiny. A cybersecurity breach that results in the loss of clients’ medical information could cause a negative impact on the Company’s reputation and ability to continue to operate in the medical testing sector.

Indebtedness

The Company has, and may continue to have and incur indebtedness. As a result of challenging economic or other conditions affecting the Company, it may incur greater levels of indebtedness than currently exist. The amount of indebtedness that the Company currently has or which it may incur in the future could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition, for example, by (i) limiting its ability to obtain additional financing, (ii) requiring it to dedicate a substantial portion of its cash flow generated from operations to payments on its indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available for other purposes, (iii) making the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns, and (iv) limiting its flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, competitive pressures or changes in its business environment. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from its operations to pay its debts and other financing obligations. Each of these factors is, to a large extent, subject to economic, financial, competitive, regulatory, operational and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control.

Intellectual Property Rights

The Company may in the future seek patent or other protection for its intellectual property rights. If the Company is unable to obtain patents or otherwise protect its trade secrets or other intellectual property and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Risks Relating to the Financial Condition of the Company Additional Funding Requirements

The Company may require additional financing in order to carry out its commercialization activities. Failure to obtain such financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to delay or indefinitely postpone the build-out of its COVID-19 testing centres and its other potential projects, curtail or terminate its operations, or miss certain acquisition opportunities. If the Company’s cash flows from operations is not sufficient to satisfy its capital expenditure and other financing requirements, there can be no assurance that additional debt or equity financing will be available to meet these requirements or be available on favorable terms. The Company may issue securities on less than favorable terms to raise sufficient capital to fund its business plan. Any transaction involving the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into Common Shares would result in dilution, possibly substantial, to present and prospective holders of Common Shares.

Insufficient Cash Flow and Funds in Reserve

The Company’s cash flow and funds in reserve may not be sufficient to fund its ongoing activities at all times and from time to time and it may require additional financing in order to carry out its activities. In addition,

34

the Company may incur major unanticipated liabilities or expenses. Although the Company has been successful in the past in financing its activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing on commercially acceptable terms. The ability of the Company to arrange such financing in the future will depend in part upon the prevailing capital market conditions as well as the business performance of Company. There is risk that if the economy and banking industry experienced unexpected and/or prolonged deterioration, the Company’s access to additional financing may be affected. This may be further complicated by the limited market liquidity for shares of smaller companies such as the Company, restricting access to some institutional investors. Due to uncertainty in the capital markets, the Company may from time to time have restricted access to capital and increased borrowing costs. To the extent that external sources of capital become limited, unavailable, or available on onerous terms, the Company’s ability to make capital investments and maintain existing assets may be impaired, and its assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be affected materially and adversely as a result.

Conflicts of Interest may Arise

Certain current or future directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries may be shareholders, directors and officers of other companies that may operate in the same sectors as the Company. Such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. The directors and officers of the Company are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and to disclose any interest that they may have in any project or opportunity of the Company. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the board of directors of the Company, any director in such conflict is required under the applicable corporate laws to disclose his or her interest and to abstain from voting on such matter.

Risks Relating to the Common Shares

Market Price of Common Shares may Experience Volatility

The market price of the Common Shares has been volatile in the past and may continue to be volatile. The market price is, and could be, subject to wide fluctuations due to a number of factors, including actual or anticipated fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations, changes in estimates of its future results of operations by management or securities analysts, market rumours, investments or divestments by the Company or its competitors and general industry changes.

Many of the factors that could affect the market price of the Common Shares are outside of the Company’s control. Broad market fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally, may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. The stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rate changes or international currency fluctuations, may negatively impact the market price of the Common Shares.

Shareholders’ Interest in the Company may be Diluted in the Future

If the Company raises additional funding by issuing additional equity securities, or securities convertible into equity, such financing may substantially dilute the interests of shareholders.

The Company has Never Paid Dividends and may not do so in the Foreseeable Future

35

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its Common Shares. Currently, the Company intends to retain its future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of its business, and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its Common Shares in the near future. As a result, shareholders will have to rely on capital appreciation, if any, to earn a return on investment in any Common Shares in the foreseeable future.

Private Issuers and Illiquid Securities

The Company may invest in securities of private issuers, illiquid securities of public issuers and publicly traded securities that have low trading volumes. The value of these investments may be affected by factors such as investor demand, resale restrictions, general market trends and regulatory restrictions. Fluctuation in the market value of such investments may occur for a number of reasons beyond the control of the Company and there is no assurance that an adequate market will exist for investments made by the Company. Many of the investments made by the Company may be relatively illiquid and may decline in price if a significant number of such investments are offered for sale by the Company or other investors.

Due Diligence

The due diligence process undertaken by the Company in connection with acquisitions may not reveal all facts that may be relevant in connection with an acquisition. Before making aquisitions, the Company will conduct due diligence that it deems reasonable and appropriate based on the facts and circumstances applicable to each acquisition. When conducting due diligence, the Company may be required to evaluate important and complex business, financial, tax, accounting, environmental and legal issues. Outside consultants, legal advisors, accountants and acquisition banks may be involved in the due diligence process in varying degrees depending on the type of acquisition. Nevertheless, when conducting due diligence and making an assessment regarding an acquisition, the Company will rely on resources available, including information provided by the target of the acquisition and, in some circumstances, third-party investigations. The due diligence investigation that is carried out with respect to any acquisition opportunity may not reveal or highlight all relevant facts that may be necessary or helpful in evaluating such acquisition opportunity. Moreover, such an investigation will not necessarily result in the acquisition being successful.

Non-controlling Interests

The Company has investments. Such instruments and securities may be acquired through trading activities or through purchases of securities from the issuer. These investments are subject to the risk that the company in which the investment is made may make business, financial or management decisions with which the Company does not agree or that the majority stakeholders or the management of the investee Company may take risks or otherwise act in a manner that does not serve the Company’s interests. If any of the foregoing was to occur, the values of the Company’s investments could decrease and its financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could suffer as a result.
