The Company’s Business

Shooting Star Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated as a private company by Certificate of Incorporation issued pursuant to the provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on September 21, 2018. The Company completed an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on May 30, 2019 and is classified as a Capital Pool Company as defined in the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) Policy 2.4. On May 30, 2019, the Company was listed on the TSX-V, and commenced trading on June 4, 2019 under the trading symbol SSSS.P.

The Company has not conducted commercial operations and it is focused on the identification and evaluation of businesses or assets to acquire. Until Completion of the Qualifying Transaction (as such term is defined in Policy 2.4), the Company will not carry on any business other than the

SHOOTING STAR ACQUISITION CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the year ended September 30, 2021

identification and evaluation of businesses or assets with a view to completing a Qualifying Transaction. Except as described in the Company’s prospectus dated February 27, 2019, the funds raised pursuant to the Company’s IPO will be utilized only for the identification and evaluation of potential Qualifying Transactions and, to the extent permitted by Policy 2.4, for general and administrative expenses. While the Company has commenced the process of identifying potential acquisitions, it has not yet entered into a definitive agreement for any particular Qualifying Transaction.

On August 17, 2020, the Company entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Astor Holdings Ltd. (“Astor”) pursuant to which the Company will acquire the Tassawini gold property located in Guyana, which is intended to constitute the Company’s qualifying transaction. The Company has agreed to assume Astor’s rights and obligations under Astor’s option agreement respecting the property in exchange for (i) an aggregate cash payment to Astor of (US)$500,000; $25,000 of which has already been advanced to Astor as a refundable deposit; (ii) the issuance to the vendors of an aggregate of 42,000,000 common shares of the Company and (iii) the additional issuance to the vendors of an aggregate of 33,000,000 common shares of the Company upon successful completion of an environmental impact statement on the property.

Prior to closing of the transaction, the Company will conduct a financing of up to 13,333,333 subscription receipts of the Company at a price of $0.15 per subscription receipt, for an aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2,000,000. Each subscription receipt will be convertible upon satisfaction of the escrow release conditions, and without payment of additional consideration, into one share and one-half of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will be exercisable into one share at an exercise price of $0.25 per share for a period of 30 months from the date of issuance. In connection with the financing the Company will pay cash finder’s fee equal to 7% of the subscription receipts and issue finder’s warrants equal to 7% of the subscription receipts subscribed.

On September 11, 2020, the Company completed its first tranche and collected $1,244,785 in gross proceeds by issuing 8,298,565 subscription receipts. On December 23, 2020, the Company completed its second tranche and collected $403,862 in gross proceeds by issuing 2,692,416 subscription receipts. The proceeds will be released following the satisfaction of the escrow release conditions.

On June 2, 2021, the Company and Astor entered into a termination agreement whereby Astor and the Company has agreed to continue to work on the Technical Report and Valuation Report on the Tassawini property. Astor has agreed to reimburse the Company $100,000 in cash within ninety days of the agreement.

Accordingly, as at September 30, 2021, all of the funds raised through the Company’s offering have been returned to the investors except for $25,000 which is included in restricted cash and subscription receipts received. Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the remaining $25,000 have been returned to the investors.

As at September 30, 2021 and the date of the MD&A, the Company has not received the reimbursement from Astor. Accordingly, the Company provided an expected loss for the full amount and the receivable has a carrying amount of $nil at year-end. Further, the $25,000 deposit advanced to Astor in the prior year was written off at September 30, 2021.

The Company will continue to seek out potential new transaction.

On June 30, 2021, the Company adopted the amendments from the TSX Venture exchange’s updated Policy 2.4 Capital Pool Companies that came into effect on January 1, 2021 (the “New CPC Policy”).

SHOOTING STAR ACQUISITION CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the year ended September 30, 2021

Removal of the Consequences of Failing to Complete a Qualifying Transaction within 24 Months of Listing

Under the former policy, there were certain consequences if a Qualifying Transaction was not completed within 24 months of the date the Corporation's common shares became listed on the Exchange. These consequences included a potential for Corporation's shares to be delisted or suspended, or, subject to the approval of the majority of the Corporation's shareholders, transferring Corporation to the NEX and cancelling certain seed shares. Under the New CPC Policy, these consequences will be removed provided the Corporation obtains disinterested shareholder approval to do so.

Replacement of the Escrow Agreement

Under the former policy, the Corporation entered into an escrow agreement dated March 1, 2018 (the “Current Escrow Agreement”) with certain of its shareholders and Computershare Investor Services Inc., pursuant to which 10% of the escrowed shares would be released from escrow on the issuance by the Exchange of a final bulletin in respect of the Corporation's Qualifying Transaction (the "Initial Release") and an additional 15% will be released on each of the 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36 months following the Initial Release. The Current Escrow Agreement also provides that all shares acquired on exercise of stock options prior to the completion of a Qualifying Transaction must also be deposited in escrow and will be subject to escrow until the Qualifying Transaction is completed.

Under the New CPC Policy, the Corporation's escrowed securities would be subject to a different escrow release schedule whereby 25% of the escrowed securities would be released from escrow on the Initial Release and 25% of the escrowed securities would be released from escrow on each of the 6, 12 and 18 months following such date. The New CPC Policy also provides that all options granted prior to the date the Exchange issues a final bulletin for the Corporation's Qualifying Transaction and all Common Shares that were issued upon exercise of such options prior to such date will be released from escrow on such date, other than options that (a) were granted prior to the Corporation's Initial Public Offering ("IPO") with an exercise price that is less than the issue price of the common shares issued in the IPO and (b) any common shares that were issued pursuant to the exercise of such options, which will be released from escrow in accordance with the schedule set out above.

Fourth Quarter

Total expenses for the fourth quarter in 2021 amounted to $62,472 as compared to $52,153 for the corresponding period in 2020, a decrease of approximately $10,300. The reason for the decrease is that the Company had terminated its qualifying transaction in the previous quarter and the cost incurred in the fourth quarter is mainly residual cost associated with the qualifying transaction. All other costs of are consistent with that of maintaining the Company as a reporting issuer. Included in expenses for the fourth quarter in 2021 is a write-off of the deposit previously advanced to Astor and no longer recoverable as a result of the termination of the LOI.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company incurred a net loss of $169,699 for the year ended September 30, 2021 as compared to $92,444 for the comparable year ended September 30, 2020, an increase of approximately $77,000 in net loss. The majority of the increase in expenses can be attributed to consulting fees, and professional fees associated with continuous updates to the filing statement throughout the year. The Company will continue to seek out new business opportunities to complete its Qualifying Transaction.

CHANGE IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Between September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2021, the Company's principal changes in financial condition were the result of incurring expenses associated with the preparation and filing of the Company’s prospectus and associated with its proposed Qualifying Transaction with Astor Holdings Ltd. On August 17, 2020, the Company entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Astor Holdings Ltd. (“Astor”) pursuant to which the Company will acquire the Tassawini gold property located in Guyana, which is intended to constitute the Company’s qualifying transaction. On June 2, 2021, the Company and Astor mutually agreed to terminate the LOI.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s current activities have been funded to date through the issuance of common shares.

As at September 30, 2021, the Company had working capital deficiency of $40,026 consisting of cash and restricted cash of $51,601, GST receivable of $2,527 and prepaid expenses and deposit of $4,473, less accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $73,627 and subscription receipts of $25,000.

On May 30, 2019, the Company completed an IPO for the net proceeds of approximately $200,000. The Company will have no revenue and significant expenses are expected in the identification and acquisition of a qualifying asset. In addition, as a result of the Company’s activities, unanticipated problems or expenses could result and require additional capital requirements, subject to TSX Venture Exchange policies and approvals.

This Company is only suitable to investors who are willing to rely solely on management of the Company and who can afford to lose their entire investment. Those investors who are not prepared to do so should not invest in the common shares.

The Company has no significant assets other than cash and restricted cash and other receivables, and has not pledged any of its assets as security for loans, or otherwise and is not subject to any debt covenants. Management believes that the completed IPO will have sufficient working capital to meet its current financial obligations.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

Related Party Transactions

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is a CPC under the policies of the Exchange. Investment in the common shares of the Company must be regarded as highly speculative due to the proposed nature of the Company’s business and its present stage of development. The following are risk factors associated with the Company:

(a) The Company was only recently incorporated, has not commenced commercial operations and has no assets other than cash, receivables and prepaid expenses. It has no history of earnings, and shall not generate earnings or pay dividends until at least after completion of the Qualifying Transaction;

(b) The Board of Directors and Officers of the Company will only devote a portion of their time to the business and affairs of the Company and some of them are or will be engaged in other projects or businesses such that conflicts of interest may arise from time to time;

(c) There can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the Company’s common shares will develop and an investor may find it difficult to resell their common shares;

(d) Until completion of an IPO, the Company is not permitted to carry on any business other than the identification and evaluation of potential Qualifying Transactions;

(e) The Company has only limited funds with which to identify and evaluate potential Qualifying Transactions and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify a suitable Qualifying Transaction;

(f) Even if a proposed Qualifying Transaction is identified, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully complete the Qualifying Transaction;

(g) Completion of the Qualifying Transaction is subject to a number of conditions including acceptance by the Exchange and, in the case of a Non-Arm’s Length Qualifying Transaction (within the meaning of Exchange Policies), majority of the minority approval;

(h) Unless the shareholder has the right to dissent and be paid fair value in accordance with applicable corporate or other law, a shareholder who votes against a proposed Non Arm’s Length Qualifying Transaction for which majority of the minority approval by shareholders has been given,

SHOOTING STAR ACQUISITION CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the year ended September 30, 2021

will have no rights of dissent and no entitlement to payment by the Company of fair value for the common shares;

(i) Upon public announcement of a proposed Qualifying Transaction, trading in the common shares of the Company will be halted and will remain halted for an indefinite period of time, typically until a Sponsor has been retained and certain preliminary reviews have been conducted. The common shares of the Company will be reinstated to trading before the Exchange has reviewed the transaction and before the Sponsor has completed its full review. Reinstatement to trading provides no assurance with respect to the merits of the transaction or the likelihood of the Company completing the proposed Qualifying Transaction;

(j) Trading in the common shares of the Company may be halted at other times for other reasons, including for failure by the Company to submit documents to the Exchange in the time periods required;

(k) The Exchange will generally suspend trading in the Company’s common shares or delist the Company if the Exchange has not issued a Final Exchange Bulletin (as that term is defined in Exchange Policies) within 24 months from the date of listing. On June 30, 2021, the Company received approval from disinterested shareholders to adopt the new CPC Policy for the removal of this consequences.

(l) Neither the Exchange nor any securities regulatory authority passes upon the merits of the proposed Qualifying Transaction;

(m) If management of the Company resides outside of Canada or the Company identifies a foreign business as a proposed Qualifying Transaction, investors may find it difficult or impossible to effect service of notice to commence legal proceedings upon any management resident outside of Canada or upon the foreign business and may find it difficult or impossible to enforce against such Persons, judgments obtained in Canadian courts;

(n) The Qualifying Transaction may be financed in whole or in part by the issuance of additional securities by the Company and this may result in further dilution to the investor, which dilution may be significant and which may also result in a change of control of the Company;

(o) The Company is relying solely on the past business success of its Directors and Officers to identify a Qualifying Transaction of merit. The success of the Company is dependent upon the efforts and abilities of its management team. The loss of any member of the management team could have a material adverse effect upon the business and prospects of the Company. In such event, the Company will seek satisfactory replacements but there can be no guarantee that appropriate personnel may be found.

As a result of these factors, this Company is only suitable to investors who are willing to rely solely on management of the Company and who can afford to lose their entire investment. Those investors who are not prepared to do so should not invest in the common shares.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and

SHOOTING STAR ACQUISITION CORP.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the year ended September 30, 2021

liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

The assessment of the Company’s ability to execute its strategy by funding future working capital requirements involves judgment. The Directors monitor future cash requirements to assess the Company’s ability to meet these future funding requirements.

A considerable amount of judgment and estimation is required in assessing the ultimate realization of other receivable and determining the expected losses to reduce the carrying amount to its net collectible amount.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES INCLUDING INITIAL ADOPTION

The preparation of financial data is based on accounting principles and practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the audited financial statements as at September 30, 2021.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and restricted cash, other receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and subscription receipts.

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial statements are summarized below.

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and other receivables. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with major financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to the other receivable, and the maximum exposure is its carrying amount on the statements of financial position.

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the cash maintained at the financial institutions is subject to floating rate of interest. The interest rate risks on cash and on the Company’s obligations are not considered significant.

Liquidity risk

All of the Company’s financial liabilities are classified as current and are anticipated to mature within the next fiscal period. The Company will have to raise additional funds to address its working capital deficiency position.

Foreign currency risk

The Company may be exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency. As at September 30, 2021, the Company did not have any accounts in foreign currencies and considers foreign currency risk insignificant.
