Company Description:

Moon River Capital Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario on August 6, 2019. The Company is a CPC within the meaning of the policies of the TSXV that has not commenced commercial operations and has no assets other than cash. Except as specifically contemplated in the CPC policies of the TSXV, until the completion of a Qualifying Transaction, the Company will not carry on business, other than the identification and evaluation of companies, business or assets with a view to completing a proposed Qualifying Transaction. Investors are cautioned that trading in the securities of a CPC is considered highly speculative.

On March 20, 2020 the Company completed its Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) issuing 2,600,000 common shares for gross proceeds of $260,000.

Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Agent”) acted as agent for the Offering. In connection with the Offering, the Company granted to the Agent, options to acquire up to an aggregate of 260,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.10 per share for a period of 24 months from the date the Common Shares are listed on the TSX-V (expired in the period). In connection with the Offering, the Agent also received a commission of $26,000, representing 10% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering. The Agent options issued with the prospectus (260,000 options at $0.10 pe share) were exercised in the current quarter.

At the closing of the Offering, the Company also granted stock options (the “Options”) to directors and officers of the Company to acquire up to an aggregate of 300,000 Common Shares. The Options may be exercised any time prior to March 20, 2025 at a price of $0.10 per share.

The Common Shares commenced trading on the TSX-V under the stock symbol “MOO.P” on March 20, 2020.

There can be no assurance the Company will successfully identify an assets or businesses to complete a Qualifying Transaction or have the necessary financial resources to complete a Qualifying Transaction.

– 4 –

below, are designed and implemented to ensure that the Company’s risks and the related exposure are consistent with its business objectives and risk tolerance. There have been no changes to the risks to which the Company is exposed or to the corresponding risk management strategies during the current period.

Credit risk

The Company’s accounts receivable include amounts that are recoverable on account of harmonized sales tax. These amounts are subject to verification through audits that may be conducted by Canada Revenue Agency. The accounts receivable do not contain any past due amounts and the Company has no history of bad debts.

Liquidity risk

The Company currently has limited financial resources, has no source of operating income and has no assurance that additional funding will be available to it to enable it to meet its obligations as they become due. Although the Company has been successful in the past in financing its activities, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.

Key officers, consultants and employees

The success of the Company will be largely dependent upon the performance of its key officers, consultants and employees. Locating mineral deposits depends on a number of factors, not the least of which is the technical skill of the exploration personnel involved. Failure to retain key individuals or to attract or retain additional key individuals with necessary skills could have a materially adverse impact upon the Company’s success. The Company has not purchased any key-man insurance with respect to any of its directors, officers or consultants and has no current plans to do so.

Conflicts of interest

Certain directors and officers of the Company are or may become associated with other natural resource companies which may give rise to conflicts of interest. In accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), directors who have a material interest in any person who is a party to a material contract or a proposed material contract with the Company are required, subject to certain exceptions, to disclose that interest and generally abstain from voting on any resolution to approve the contract. In addition, the directors and the officers are required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. The directors and officers of the Company have either other full-time employment or other business or time restrictions placed on them and, accordingly, the Company will not be the only business enterprise of these directors and officers.

Uninsured risks

The Company currently does not have liability insurance.

Dividend policy

No dividends on the common shares of the Company have been paid by the Company to date. The Company intends to retain its earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of its business and has no present intention of paying dividends or making any other distributions in the foreseeable future.

COVID-19

Since March 2020, several governmental measures have been implemented in Canada and the rest of the world in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. While the impact of COVID-19 and these measures are expected to be temporary, the current circumstances are dynamic and the impacts of COVID- 19 on the Company’s business operations cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company anticipates this could have an adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows in 2022. Vaccines have proven effective against the virus, however, going forward new variants may develop for which the vaccine may not be as effective. The ultimate affect of the virus on the Company is still uncertain.
