1290439 B.C. LTD. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION (FEBRUARY 23, 2021) TO JUNE 30, 2021

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The following management’s discussion and analysis, prepared as of August 27, 2021 and should be read together with the unaudited interim financial statements and accompanying notes for the period from incorporation (February 23, 2021) to June 30, 2021, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) effective for the reporting period ended June 30, 2021. All amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the recoverability of past expenditures mainly in day-to-day operations are dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing and/or loans to successfully complete its future objectives. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Should the Company be unable to realize its assets or discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded in the financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management pursues relationships and alliances with diverse entities in order to attract additional sources of funds or other transactions that would assure the continuance of the Company’s operations.

All statements in this report that do not directly and exclusively relate to historical facts constitute forward-looking statements. These statements represent the Company’s intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs, and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors of which many are beyond the control of the Company. These factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations. The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Additional information related to the Company is available for view on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

On May 29, 2019, ECC Diversified Inc. (“ECC”) completed a strategic reorganization of its assets by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) in which it spun out Larose Ventures Ltd and its other investee subsidiaries. This Arrangement involved the transfer of certain assets into Larose.

The Company is investigating and evaluating business opportunities to either acquire or in which to participate.

On April 1, 2021, Larose Ventures Ltd. and 1290439 B.C. Ltd. (“439”) announced that the previously announced spin-out of the Spinout Entities by a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Arrangement”) has been completed. The Arrangement was approved by the unanimous written consent of the shareholders of the Company. The Company obtained the final order approving the Arrangement from the Supreme Court of British Columbia on March 26, 2021 and the Arrangement closed and became effective on April 1, 2021.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, shareholders of Larose as of the close of business on the record date of March 8, 2021 received one half of one common share of each of the Spinout Entities for every common share of Larose that they held as of March 8, 2021.

1290439 B.C. LTD. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCORPORATION (FEBRUARY 23, 2021) TO JUNE 30, 2021

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the payment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. At June 30, 2021, the Company had no sources of revenue and an accumulated deficit $12,603 (2020 – $nil). At June 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $92,894 and working capital of $87,397. These conditions raise material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the recoverability of past expenditures mainly in day-to-day operations are dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing and/or loans to successfully complete its future objectives. Management pursues relationships and alliances with diverse entities in order to attract additional sources of funds or other transactions that would assure the continuance of the Company’s operations.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Interim MD&A and in certain documents incorporated by reference in this Interim MD&A, constitute forward-looking information and forward-looking statements, as defined in applicable securities laws (collectively referred to herein as “forward-looking statements”). These statements relate to future events or the Company’s future performance. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “continues”, “forecasts”, “projects”, “predicts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “believes”, or variations of, or the negatives of, such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this Interim MD&A speak only as of the date of (i) this Interim MD&A or (ii) as of the date specified in such statement. The following table outlines certain significant forward-looking statements contained in this Interim MD&A and provides the material assumptions used to develop such forward-looking statements and material risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking information in this MD&A reflects the current expectations, assumptions or beliefs of the Company based on information currently available to the Company. With respect to forward looking information contained in this MD&A, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things, the Company’s ability to successfully generate sufficient funds from capital markets to meet its future obligations as and when required, assumptions relating to the Company’s critical accounting policies, the Company’s business, the Company’s ability to pursue potential corporate transactions, the Company's ability to continue to obtain qualified staff and equipment in a timely and cost-efficient manner to meet the Company's demand. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward- looking information are reasonable, forwardlooking information is not a guarantee of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such information due to the inherent uncertainty therein.

Forward-looking information is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking information, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, the Company.

Any forward-looking information speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise.

This MD&A (See “FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK”) contain information on risks, uncertainties and other factors relating to the forward‐looking information. Although the Company has attempted to identify factors that would cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those disclosed in the forward‐looking information, there may be other factors that cause actual results, performances, achievements or events not to be anticipated, estimated or intended. Also, many of the factors are beyond the Company’s control. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward‐looking information. The Company undertakes no obligation to reissue or update forward looking information as a result of new - information or events after the date of this MD&A except as may be required by law. All forward looking information disclosed in this document is qualified by this cautionary statement.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and loans payable. As at June 30, 2021, the carrying value of accounts payable, accrued liabilities and loans payable approximate their fair value due to their short term to maturity. Cash is measured at fair value.

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its financial obligations when they are due. As at June 30, 2021, the Company had cash balance of $92,894 (June 30, 2020 - $Nil) and current liabilities of $5,497 (June 30, 2020 - $Nil). To manage liquidity risk, the Company reviews additional sources of capital to continue its operations and discharge its commitments as they become due. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of 30 days or due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms.

Credit risk

The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets and would arise from the non-performance by counterparties of contractual financial obligations. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk on liquid assets by maintaining its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions, for which management believes the risk of loss to be minimal.

Interest rate risk

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has no interest-bearing term deposits.
