CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 2024
(Expressed
in United States Dollars)
Independent
Auditor’s Report |
|
To
the Shareholders of BriaPro Therapeutics Corp.:
Opinion
We
have audited the consolidated financial statements of BriaPro Therapeutics Corp. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated
statements of financial position as at July 31, 2024 and July 31, 2023 and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended July 31, 2024 and for the period from inception (May 15,
2023) to July 31, 2023, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In
our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of the Company as at July 31, 2024 and July 31, 2023, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows
from for the year ended July 31, 2023 and the period from inception (May 15, 2023) to July 31, 2023 in accordance with IFRS® Accounting
Standards.
Basis
for Opinion
We
conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the consolidated financial
statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that
the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material
Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We
draw attention to Note 1(c) in the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Company incurred net loss since incorporation
and is currently in the pre-clinical research stage and expects to further incur losses through to the completion of the research and
development stage. As stated in Note 1(c), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1(c), indicate that
a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion
is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other
Information
Management
is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
Our
opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion
thereon.
In
connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained
in the audits or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date
of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities
of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management
is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting
Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In
preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those
charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our
objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level
of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated
financial statements.
As
part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
|
● |
Identify
and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and
perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. |
|
● |
Obtain
an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. |
|
● |
Evaluate
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. |

T: 416.626.6000 F: 416.626.8650 MNP.ca |
|
|
● |
Conclude
on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events
or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. |
|
● |
Evaluate
the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. |
|
● |
Plan
and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business units within the Company as a basis for forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the group audit. We remain solely responsible
for our audit opinion. |
We
communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audits.
We
also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence,
and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards.
The
engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Isabella Lee.

Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
FOR
THE YEAR ENDED JULY 31, 2024
(Expressed
in US Dollars)
NOTE
1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
|
a. |
BriaPro
Therapeutics Corp. (“BriaPro” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British
Columbia) on May 15, 2023. Following the completion of the Arrangement (as defined below), BriaPro is a pre-clinical immuno-oncology
biotechnology company with multiple assets, specifically Bria-TILsRx™, and PKCδ inhibitors for multiple indications including
cancer. The Company’s head office is located at 235 15th Street, Suite 300, West Vancouver B.C, V7T 2X1, Canada.
The Company is an unlisted reporting issuer in Canada. |
|
|
|
|
b. |
On
August 31, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), the Company and BriaCell Therapeutics Corp, the Company’s holding
company, and immune-oncology biotechnology company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and NASDAQ (“BriaCell”),
closed a plan of arrangement spinout transaction (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to which certain assets of the BriaCell,
including Bria-TILsRx™ and protein kinase C delta (PKCδ) inhibitors for multiple indications including cancer (the
“BriaPro Assets”), were spun-out to the Company. See note 7 for details. |
Pursuant
to the terms of the Arrangement, the Company has acquired the entire right and interest in and to the BriaPro Assets in consideration
for the issuance by the Company to BriaCell of the Company’s common shares. Under the terms of the Arrangement, for each
BriaCell share held immediately prior to closing, BriaCell Shareholders receive one (1) common share of BriaPro.
In addition, in connection with
the Arrangement, each BriaCell warrant in issue at the time of the Arrangement entitled the holder thereof to receive, upon the exercise
thereof one BriaCell Share and one BriaPro Share for the original exercise price (“Warrant Shares”), see note 5(c).
As
a result of the Arrangement, 47,945,177 common shares were issued and outstanding and 2,131,400 stock options and 19,100 RSUs
were issued. BriaCell beneficially owns or controls approximately 31,963,452 common shares, representing 2/3rd of the issued
and outstanding common shares.
In
accordance with IFRS, management determined that the Arrangement does not meet the definition of a business combination as the BriaPro
Assets met the concentration test. Further, management asserts that BriaPro had not yet achieved commercial operations and was still
in the Research stage at the time of the Arrangement (hence there were no significant inputs, processes and outputs as defined in IFRS
3 as characteristics of a business).
Consequently,
the Transaction has been recorded as an asset acquisition and the Company recorded the carrying value of the intangible assets acquired
from BriaCell.
The
shares, options and RSUs issued on the Effective Date along with the Warrant Share obligation are considered as part of the transaction.
The carrying value of the BriaPro Assets at the Effective Date were $213,800. The warrants will be recorded as a liability at their fair
value on the Effective Date, and revalued at reach reporting period. The options and RSUs will be recorded at their fair value
on the Effective Date in the share based payments reserve and the balance will be recorded in share capital.
The
table below summarizes the breakdown of the consideration at the Effective date:

Transition
Services Agreement
On
August 31, 2023, the Company and BriaPro executed a transition services agreement (the “Transition Agreement”), pursuant
to which BriaCell will provide certain research and development and head office services (the “Services”) to BriaPro
for a fixed monthly fee of $20,000.
BriaCell
and BriaPro acknowledged the transitional nature
of the Services and accordingly, as promptly as practicable, BriaPro agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to transition each
Service to its own internal organization or to obtain alternate third party providers to provide the Services.
|
c. |
The
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates the realization
of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses
of $440,209 since incorporation, is currently in the pre-clinical research stage and has not commenced commercial operations.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to attain future profitable operations and to
obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come
due. The Company expects to incur further losses through to the completion of the research and development of any therapy; the nature
of a development stage immune-oncology company requires the raising of financial capital to support its clinical development programs
and administrative costs. The Company is planning to finance its operations by exploring additional sources of capital and financing,
while managing its existing working capital resources. The material uncertainty of the Company’s ability to raise such financial
capital casts significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These Consolidated Financial
Statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should
the Company not be able to continue as a going concern. |

2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
a.
Statement of Compliance:
The
Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”),
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee,
effective as of July 31, 2024.
b.
Basis of presentation
The
Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared on a going concern basis and have been presented in United States dollars which is the
Company’s reporting currency. A summary of the material accounting policies is provided in Note 3.
c.
Basis of Measurement:
These
Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost basis, except for financial
instruments which have been measured at fair value.
d.
Basis of Consolidation
These
Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of BriaPro and its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary BriaIP Therapeutics Corp.
(“BriaIP”), incorporated on August 28, 2023. The Consolidated Financial Statements of the subsidiary are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements

to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The Company applies the acquisition
method to account for business combinations in accordance with IFRS 3.
All
inter–company balances, and transactions, have been eliminated upon consolidation.

e.
Functional Currency and Presentation Currency:
The
functional currency is the currency that best reflects the economic environment in which the Company operates and conducts its transactions.
Significantly all the Company’s expenses are denominated in U.S dollars and therefore, the Company’s management
believes that the functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar.
Accordingly,
monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are remeasured into U.S. dollars at each reporting period end.
All transaction gains and losses of the remeasured monetary financial position items are reflected in the statement of operations and
comprehensive loss as financing income or expenses as appropriate.
NOTE
3: MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a.
Material Accounting Judgment and Estimates:
The
accounting policies and use of estimates and judgments described below have been applied consistently in these Consolidated Financial
Statements.
The
preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated
Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The Company’s management believes that the estimates,
judgment and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and
assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the Consolidated Financial Statements,
and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Key
areas of estimation uncertainty include:
Intangible
Assets: The useful lives of intangible assets are estimated based on historical experience and management’s best estimate of the
future economic benefits that will be derived from the use of the assets. The assessment of whether intangible assets are impaired requires
estimates of recoverable amounts, which involve assumptions about future cash flows and discount rates.
Warrant
Liabilities: The fair value of warrant liabilities is determined using valuation techniques appropriate for financial instruments,
including assumptions such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, expected life, and market prices of underlying shares.
These assumptions are reviewed and updated as necessary at each reporting date. The share price for determining the value of the
warrant liability was determined by using the discounted cash flow method, including assumptions relating to future
cash flows, an appropriate discount rate and growth rate and royalty rate. Warrant liabilities are remeasured at fair value at each
reporting date, with any gains or losses recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Going
Concern
Preparation
of the Consolidated Financial Statements is on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities
in the ordinary course of business. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying
value of its assets, including its intangible assets and to meet its liabilities as they become due.
Income
Taxes
Provisions
for taxes are made using the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid based on a qualitative assessment of all relevant factors.
The Company reviews the adequacy of these provisions at the end of the reporting period. However, it is possible that at some future
date an additional liability could result from audits by taxing authorities. Where the final outcome of these tax-related matters
is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will affect the tax provisions in the period in which
such determination is made.

c.
Share-based Payments
Equity-settled
share-based payments for directors, officers and employees are measured at fair value at the date of grant and recorded as compensation
expense over the vesting period with a corresponding increase to share-based payment reserve in the consolidated financial statements.
The
fair value determined at the grant date of equity-settled share-based payments is expensed using the graded vesting method over the vesting
period based on the Company’s estimate of payments that will eventually vest. Upon exercise of the stock options, consideration
paid by the option holder together with the amount previously recognized in share-based payment reserve is recorded as an increase to
share capital. Upon expiry, the amounts recorded for share-based compensation are transferred to the deficit from the share-based payment
reserve. Shares are issued from treasury upon the exercise of equity-settled share-based instruments.
Compensation
expense on stock options granted to non-employees is measured at the earlier of the completion of performance and the date the options
are vested using the fair value method and is recorded as an expense in the same period as if the Company had paid cash for the goods
or services received.
When
the value of goods or services received in exchange for the share-based payment cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value is measured
by use of a Black-Scholes valuation model. The expected life used in the model is adjusted, based on management’s best estimate,
for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioral considerations.
d.
Share Capital
Common
shares are classified as equity. Proceeds from unit placements are allocated between shares and warrants issued using the relative fair
value method. Costs directly identifiable with share capital financing are charged against share capital. Share issuance costs incurred
in advance of share subscriptions are recorded as prepaid assets. Share issuance costs related to uncompleted share subscriptions are
charged to operations in the period they are incurred.
e.
Intangible assets, net:
Separately
acquired intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost including directly attributable costs. Intangible assets acquired
in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Expenditures relating to internally generated intangible
assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are recognized in statement of operations and comprehensive loss when incurred.
Intangible
assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for indications of impairment at least annually. Impairment
analysis is completed whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The evaluation is performed at the lowest level
for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The recoverability of the
group of assets is measured to be the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal. In assessing value in use,
the estimated future cash flows are discounted to present value using pre-tax discount rate. An impairment loss is recognized If the
carrying amount of an asset or the lowest level of cash generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
The
amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at each year end.
The
useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:

Research and Development expenses:
The
Company expenses amounts paid for intellectual property, development and production expenditures as they are incurred. However, such
costs are deferred and recorded in intangible assets when they meet generally accepted criteria, to the extent that their recovery can
reasonably be regarded as assured.

NOTE
3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
The
costs must meet the following criteria to be deferred: the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be
available for use or sale; the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; the ability to use or sell the intangible
asset; the probability of future economic benefits; the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete
the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and the ability to reliably measure the expenditure attributable to the intangible
asset during its development. Once those criteria are met, the future costs, such as costs to obtain patent or trademark protection over
the developed technologies, will be capitalized. These costs are then amortized over their expected useful lives. To date it has not
been demonstrated that these expenditures will generate or be able to be used to generate probable future economic benefits.
g.
Fair value of financial instruments:
a)
Classification
The
Company determines the classification of financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition. The classification of its instruments
is driven by the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and liabilities and their contractual cash flow characteristics.
Equity instruments that are held for trading (including all equity derivative instruments) are classified as fair value through profit
and loss (“FVTPL”). For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election
(on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”). Financial
liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or
derivatives) or the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.
The
following table shows the classification of financial instruments under IFRS 9:

b)
Measurement
Financial
assets and liabilities at amortized cost
Financial
assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently
carried at amortized cost less any impairment.
Financial
assets and liabilities at FVTPL
Financial
assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statements of
operations and comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets
and liabilities held at FVTPL are included in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise.
Where the Company has opted to recognize a financial liability at FVTPL, any changes associated with the Company’s own credit risk
will be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).

Fair value of financial instruments:
b)
Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost
The
Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting
date, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the
credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset
has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount
equal to twelve month expected credit losses. The Company recognizes an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses
(or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized.
Fair
value measurement
Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. Fair value measurement is based on the assumption that the transaction will take place in the assets
or the liability’s principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.
The
fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
Fair
value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using
the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best
use.
The
Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair
value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All
assets and liabilities measured at fair value or for which fair value is disclosed are categorized into levels within the fair value
hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement:
|
Level
1 |
— |
quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
Level
2 |
— |
inputs
other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. |
|
Level
3 |

inputs
that are not based on observable market data (valuation techniques which use inputs that are not based on observable market data). |

Income Taxes:
Income
tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized
directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case the income tax is also recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive
income.
Current
tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the end of the reporting period, and any
adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are only offset if a legally enforceable
right exists to offset the amounts and the Company intends to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously.
Deferred
tax is recognized in respect of all qualifying temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is determined on a non-discounted basis using tax rates and laws that
have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the deferred tax asset or
liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that the assets can be recovered. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred
tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
Deferred
tax assets are recognized to the extent future recovery is probable. At each reporting period end, deferred tax assets are reduced to
the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable earnings will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
i.

BriaPro Board adopted the BriaPro incentive plan, The purpose of the BriaPro incentive plan is to allow BriaPro to issue stock options,
performance share units (“PSUs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”), and deferred share units (“DSUs”
and together with the PSUs and RSUs, “Share Units”) to directors, officers, employees and consultants, as additional compensation,
and as an opportunity to participate in the success of BriaPro. The granting of such Awards is intended to align the interests of such
persons with that of the shareholders (the “Omnibus Plan”).
Pursuant
to the Arrangement, all BriaCell option holders received the same amount of BriaPro options (“BriaPro Option”) under the
BriaPro incentive plan as they had under the BriaCell incentive plan. The exercise price of the BriaCell options will be apportioned between the BriaCell options and the BriaPro
options, as follows:
Each
one (1) BriaPro Option to acquire one (1) Share shall have an exercise price equal to the product obtained by multiplying the original
exercise price of the BriaCell Option by the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the fair market value of a BriaPro Share at the Effective
Date by (B) the aggregate fair market value of a BriaCell Share and a BriaPro Share at the Effective Date (“BriaPro Option Exercise
Price”)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JULY 31, 2024
(Expressed in US Dollars)
NOTE 11: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Financial Instruments and Financial Risk
Exposures
The Company’s financial instruments consist
of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loans from a related party, and the warrant liability. Unless otherwise noted, it
is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values, unless otherwise noted.
Management
understands that the Company is exposed to financial risk arising from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility
of these rates as a portion of the Company’s transactions occur in Canadian Dollars, and the Company’s functional and presentation
currency is the US dollar. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
The
Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors
the risk management process. The overall objectives of the Board are to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without
unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility.
The
type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is as follows:
The
Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. Management believes that the credit risk concentration
with respect to financial instruments is remote.
The
Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities as they come
due. Until the Company raises additional financing, it is entirely dependent on BriaCell to finance the Company’s operations. As
of July 31, 2024, the Company has a negative working capital balance of $455,649 (July 31, 2023 – working capital of $1). The table
below presents the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments:

Interest
Rate risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Loans
payable include both fixed and variable interest rates; however, the Company does not believe it is exposed to material interest rate
risk.
As
the Company has no revenues, price risk is remote.
The
Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as a portion of the Company’s transactions occur in Canadian Dollars and, therefore,
the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period through its Canadian denominated accounts payable
and cash. As of July 31, 2024, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would not have a material
effect on the in total loss and comprehensive loss.
The
carrying values of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short terms to maturity.
Cash,
is valued using quoted market prices in active markets. The warrant liability is measured using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
The
Company considers its capital to be comprised of shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objectives in managing its capital are
to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern and to further develop its business. To effectively manage the Company’s
capital requirements, the Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to meet its strategic goals. In order to facilitate the
management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors,
including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. Management reviews the capital structure on a regular basis
to ensure the above objectives are met. There have been no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the year
ended July 31, 2024. There are no externally imposed restrictions on the Company’s capital.

BUSINESS
OF BRIAPRO
Overview
of BriaPro
BriaPro
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BriaCell Therapeutics Corp., a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the development
of Bria-TILsRx™, and PKCδ inhibitors for multiple indications including cancer.
BriaPro’s
novel and highly selective PKCδ inhibitors may be developed as candidates for multiple disease indications including several tumor
types. BriaPro’s two novel Bria-TILsRx™s are multi-specific binding reagents designed to act as potent immune cell activators
and/or immune checkpoint inhibitors. They are expected to selectively target and destroy cancer cells without harming normal (non-cancerous)
cells. This may mean less severe side effects for the treated cancer patients compared with those of alternative therapies.
BriaPro’s
operations are conducted in compliance with local laws where such activities are permissible and either (a) do not require any specific
legal or regulatory approvals, or (b) BriaPro has all necessary legal and/or regulatory approvals. See “Risk Factors.”
Corporate
Highlights
BriaPro
is a spin-out from BriaCell Therapeutics (NASDAQ: BCTX); two-thirds retained ownership. BriaPro is a pre-clinical stage immunotherapy
company developing binding agents and proteins with the intention to boost the ability of the body’s own cancer-fighting cells
to destroy cancerous tumors. Using artificial intelligence (“AI”) [with ImmunoPrecise Antibodies and Receptor AI],
BriaPro will identify drug candidates.
The
lead drug discovery candidates for BriaPro include:
|
● |
Bria-TILsRx™:
Multi-Specific Binding Reagents - Immunotherapy for Cancer: being developed in collaboration with ImmunoPrecise Antibodies. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Small
Molecule Program: Protein Kinase C delta (PKCδ) Inhibitors being developed with Receptor AI. |
The
power of AI in drug candidate selection has been hailed by experts and investments in AI-driven drug discovery companies have tripled
over the past four years, reaching $24.6 billion in 2022.2 Using AI technology to identify the next blockbuster therapies
can help eliminate some of the guesswork that typically requires hundreds of lab experiments—often spread over many years—to
identify promising molecules.
Instead
of coming up with tens of thousands of compounds to figure out, computers suggest testing ten compounds in a lab, then getting feedback
from the lab results. The machines learn from those results to make a better prediction to provide the next hundred candidates for testing
and ultimately filter to one molecule.
Over
the course of the next year, BriaPro expects to screen several different multi specific binding reagents for activity in vitro as well
as in mouse models of cancer. BriaPro also expects to select at least one candidate to advance into IND enabling studies. Human clinical
studies are expected to be initiated in the first half of 2025. In parallel, BriaPro will continue to optimize the structure of its proprietary
protein kinase C delta inhibitors and advance to the candidates election stage. Human clinical studies are expected to be initiated in
the second half of 2025.
BriaPro’s
Business Strategy
BriaPro’s
business strategy includes using AI to guide the design of novel multi specific binding reagents known as Bria-TILsRx™. BriaPro
will also use AI to further enhance the selectivity and potency of novel protein kinase C delta inhibitors. These agents will be tested
in vitro and in animal models to optimize their characteristics. They will then enter preclinical IND, enabling studies which are expected
to take up to one year in duration. They will then be introduced into the clinic in phase one clinical studies in patients with cancer.
As the activity and safety of these assets is confirmed, BriaPro will advance their clinical programs, culminating in applying for biological
licensing applications or new drug applications to the FDA and other regulatory authorities around the world. Bria-TILsRx™ and
protein kinase C delta inhibitors will then be marketed for the treatment of patients with cancer.
BriaPro’s
Research and Development Programs
Bria-TILSRx™:
BriaPro Lead Assets
T
cells typically recognize and attack cancer cells. But cancer can suppress the immune response. Bria-TILsRx™ work in one of two
ways:
|
● |
Directly
linking killer T cells to cancer cells and activating them to kill the cancer cells; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
Blocking
the molecules on the cancer cells that suppress the immune response. |

“AI Drug Discovery Is a $50 Billion Opportunity for Big Pharma,” (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-09/pharmaceutical-companies-embrace-ai-to-develop-new-drugs).
Bria-TILsRx™
Rationale:
The
global cancer immunotherapy market was estimated at $115 billion in 2022. Current immunotherapies only work in some cancers, and then
not in all patients. Recent entrees into the cancer immunotherapy field are bi-specific T cell engagers (BITEs). These work by linking
killer T cells to cancer cells and activating the killer T cells to kill the cancer cells. Hailed as a potentially major advance in cancer
therapy, they still suffer from side effects and don’t work in all patients. BriaPro’s Bria-TILsRx™ platform is quadrivalent,
enhancing the ability to specifically target tumor cells and potently activate T cells, and to block the ability of the cancer cells
to shut down the immune system. Bria-TILsRx™: Multivalent Binding Reagents are designed to activate the immune system against cancer
more specifically and more potently than current approaches.
Bria-TILsRx™
Advantages:
Multi-specific
Binding Reagents have the potential to (i) bind more selectively to cancer cells and link them with T cells to kill the cancer cells;
and (ii) block the ability of cancer cells to shut down the T cells more potently that current agents.
There
are two approved BITEs to date, with many others in development: BLINCYTO® for leukemia and KIMMTRAK® for melanoma. These are
limited by the cancer cell targets available. By using artificial AI, BriaPro can rapidly develop novel binding agents that can target
more and different types of cancer than other BITEs. The BriaPro molecules are also able to engage more than one target, as shown below.
Current
immunotherapies (Keytruda®, Opdivo®, Tecentriq®, etc) block the ability of selected molecules on cancer cells to shut down
the immune response (so-called immune checkpoints). Their mechanism of action is shown here.
However,
cancer cells express multiple different immune checkpoints. Bria-TILsRx™ can block multiple immune checkpoints with a single molecule
making them potentially more effective, as shown below.
Protein
Kinase C delta (PKCδ) Inhibitors: BriaPro Small Molecule Program
Rationale:
30%
of all human malignancies display activating RAS mutations. As well, another 60% show over-activity of Ras-signaling pathways. Ras has
been termed “undruggable” (as it is difficult to make a Ras inhibitor drug). BriaPro’s novel, proprietary PKCδ
inhibitors have shown activity against multiple RAS transformed tumors. Lung cancer, Melanoma, Breast cancer, Neuroendocrine cancer,
Pancreatic cancer, Colorectal cancer. This target has an attractive safety profile based on in vivo studies and knock out mouse studies.
PKCδ inhibitors should qualify for an accelerated clinical development plan and regulatory pathway. PKCδ inhibitors potentially
offer a safe treatment for up to 90% of all human cancers.
Protein
Kinase C delta (PKCδ) Inhibitors: Advantages:
BriaPro
will have access to novel structures with extended patent life and large number of chemical moieties covered. Fourth generation inhibitors
are under development using AI in collaboration with Receptor AI to optimize drug-like characteristics.
Studies
have also shown that PKCδ inhibitors lack endothelial cell cytotoxicity & PKCδ deficient mice develop normally and are
fertile. This portends an excellent safety profile.
The
below graphic shows three generations of PKCδ inhibitors. The first generation is the natural compound rottlerin, which corresponds
to Generation 1 in the table below. The low potency and selectivity of rottlerin for PKCδ was enhanced by making a hybrid struction,
combining part of the staurosporine molecular structure (shown in red) with part of the rottlerin structure (shown in blue) to produce
KAM1. Note that staurosporine is a highly potent but non-selective PKC inhibitor. The improvement in selectivity of KAM1 over rottlerin
is shown in the table (Generation 2). KAM1 was further modified for produce BP-106 with enhances potency and selectivity (Generation
3).

High
selectivity of the currently available inhibitors suggests an excellent safety profile with potent anti-cancer activity. Novel PKCδ
inhibitors with excellent safety in vitro and in animal models have been developed and are being optimized. New generation molecules
are being designed using AI.
Several
in vitro and animal model studies have shown efficacy against various human cancers as depicted by the charts below.
PKCδ
inhibitor reduces tumor burden in a human lung cancer model (left; the red line shows increasing tumor size in the control animals while
the blue line shows the tumor size shrinking in the animals treated with a PKCδ inhibitor) and a human pancreatic cancer model
(right) with decreases in tumor amounts (right top; the blue line shows increasing tumor size in the control animals while the purple
line shows the tumor size shrinking in the animals treated with a PKCδ inhibitor) and increased survival (right bottom; survival
is shown, which quickly goes to 0 in the control animals (purple line), but survival of the treated animals (green line) stabilizes at
50% and is maintained for up to 300 days).
Production
and Services
BriaPro
contains the expertise to both discover and develop novel drug candidates, take them through clinical testing and have them approved
for use and marketing in humans. BriaPro will operate as a virtual company using contract research organizations for the bulk of the
research that will be performed. This includes the molecular biology aspect of developing novel protein therapeutics, having them tested
in vitro and tested in animal models, and performing IND enabling toxicology pharmacology and pharmacokinetics studies. BriaPro may develop
a small laboratory presence to perform some of these activities in house.
Specialized
Skill and Knowledge
BriaPro
possesses individuals with expertise in multiple scientific areas relevant to drug discovery and development. This includes molecular
biology, immunology, immuno oncology, clinical pharmacology, preclinical evaluation, basic pharmacology, interpretation of toxicological
studies, regulatory interactions, design and implementation of phase one, phase two, and phase three clinical studies. In addition, BriaPro
works with consultants who are experts in medicinal chemistry, artificial intelligence, structural biology, and other relevant disciplines.
Competitive
Conditions
The
market for cancer therapeutics is highly competitive. BriaPro will compete with other research teams who are also examining potential
therapeutics with regards to cancer, both immunotherapies and targeted approaches. Many of its competitors have greater financial and
operational resources and more experience in research and development than BriaPro. Other companies may have developed, or could in the
future develop, new technologies that compete with BriaPro’s technologies or render its technologies obsolete. Competition in cancer
therapeutics markets is primarily driven by (i) timing of technological introductions; (ii) the ability to develop, maintain and protect
proprietary products and technologies; and (iii) expertise of research and development team. BriaPro possesses particular unique expertise
and approaches that differentiate BriaPro from its competition. Very few competitors are using a quadrivalent platform to develop immunotherapies,
and even fewer are targeting the specific receptors that BriaPro is targeting. As well, small molecules that combat RAS transformed tumors
are not common and even less so protein kinase C delta inhibitors.
New
Products
Bria-TILsRx™:
Multi-Specific Binding Reagents - Immunotherapies for Cancer
Developed
as potential immunotherapies for cancer, BriaPro’s two novel Bria-TILsRx™s are multi-specific binding reagents designed to
act as potent immune cell activators and/or immune checkpoint inhibitors. They are expected to selectively target and destroy cancer
cells without harming normal (non-cancerous) cells. This may mean less severe side effects for the treated cancer patients compared with
those of alternative therapies.
PKCδ
Inhibitors: Therapeutics for multiple disease indications including cancer
PKCδ,
also called novel PKC, has been associated with a number of diseases including cancer. Selective inhibitors of PKCδ, have been
shown to be effective treatments for several animal models of cancer and other diseases. BriaPro’s novel and highly selective PKCδ
inhibitors may be developed as candidates for multiple disease indications, including several tumor types.
Components
BriaPro
depends on third party suppliers to obtain BriaPro’s raw ingredients, intermediate drug substances and specialized equipment, which
are necessary for the production of BriaPro’s products.
BriaPro
currently obtains ingredients and API for the manufacturing of BriaPro’s pipeline products from specialized suppliers. For some
components, including raw ingredients, BriaPro has so far identified only one supplier which is qualified for outsourcing and/or current
good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”) process. If that supplier were to stop supplying the required ingredient(s),
BriaPro would need to identify an alternative source of such components, if possible, and may need to wait until it is qualified for
BriaPro’s outsourcing and/or cGMP process before procuring the components. This could cause substantial delays and a significant
increase in costs to one or all of BriaPro’s development programs. If no alternate suppliers were identified, such supply issues
could terminate the program.
Intellectual
Property Rights
Protection
of intellectual property is integral to BriaPro’s success. As such, BriaPro has and will continue to pursue patent protection,
register trademarks, and protect other intellectual property through trade secrets, copyright, confidential disclosure agreements, and
other mechanisms as appropriate. This includes the use of confidential disclosure agreements with all prospective vendors and partners,
reviewed by legal counsel under the direction of BriaPro.
In
order to maximize the duration of patent protection during the commercial life of a potential product and/or allow the generation of
data to strengthen a potential patent, BriaPro may on occasion delay patent filing. However, BriaPro will ensure it does not risk the
product protection during such delay.
To
ensure protection of all trade secrets, BriaPro will put in place strict confidentiality agreements with its directors, executive officers
and staff and stores research and development materials and data in secure facilities.

set forth in Exhibit A, which were assigned to them from the inventors recorded at Reel/Frame 041014/0095 on January 19, 2017, and FWT,
pursuant to this Agreement, licensed the patents to Sapientia. Within 30 days of the date of this Agreement, Sapientia must pay to FWT
$75,000 to be paid half in cash ($37,500) and the other half in Sapientia common shares, fully vested, valued at $37,500, representing
Sapientia’s reimbursement of FWT’s prior expenses associated with the Patents and execution of the Agreement, in addition
to certain milestone payments.
Royalties
are also payable pursuant to this Agreement. Following the first Commercial Sale of a first Product in the United States, Sapientia shall
pay to FWT 5% of Net Sales of Products encompassed by one or more valid claims of the Patents and/or the Improvement within the Territory,
and 2.5% of Net Sales of Products not encompassed within one or more valid claims of the Patents within the Territory. Payment must be
made on or before January 1st and on or before July 1st of every year. If sales of Product require the payment of a royalty to a Third
Party for a prior art patent, Royalties payable to FWT shall be reduced by the amount of the Third Party royalty actually paid, but in
no event shall the Royalty payments payable to FWT be reduced by more than one half of the amounts set forth in this Section. Three years
after receiving marketing approval from the regulatory bodies listed in Section 3.5, Sapientia must make minimum royalty payments to
FWT of US$250,000 per year. Within 30 days of sublicensing to a Third Party, Sapientia must pay to FWT 25% of all consideration received
by Sapientia for the sublicense.
FWT
retains all rights to use and practice the Patents and any Improvement for research, education, and other non-commercial purposes, and
may exercise those rights with or without Notice or compensation to Sapientia.

Cycles
The
nature of BriaPro’s business is not seasonal or cyclical.
Economic
Dependence
BriaPro
does not have a contract upon which its business is substantially dependent.
Changes
to Contracts
BriaPro
does not anticipate any aspect of its business in the current financial year that would be affected by renegotiation or termination of
contracts or sub-contracts.
Environmental
Protection
BriaPro
does not anticipate any financial or operational effects of environmental protection requirements on the capital expenditures, profit
or loss and competitive position in the current financial year or in future years.
Management
and Employees
BriaPro
will initiate operations with four employees.
Foreign
Operations
BriaPro
does not have any foreign operations. Several of BriaPro’s contractors are located in other countries and this could present a
risk to ongoing operations.
Lending
BriaPro
does not have any lending operations.
Market
Opportunity
BriaPro
is dedicated to the development of novel immunotherapies to fight cancer and improve the lives of patients whose medical needs are currently
unmet. The global cancer immunotherapy market is estimated at $115 billion in 2022.1 However, current immunotherapies
only work in some cancers, and even then, not in all patients. Recent entries into the cancer immunotherapy field are bi-specific T cell
engagers (BITEs). To date, there are two approved BITEs, with many others in development: BLINCYTO® for leukemia and KIMMTRAK®
for melanoma. These existing options are limited by the cancer cell targets available. By using AI, BriaPro can rapidly develop novel
binding agents that can target more and different types of cancer. Currently, one of BriaPro’s lead drug discovery candidates,
Protein Kinase C Delta (PKCδ) Inhibitors, is being developed with AI with the intention of boosting the ability of the body’s
own cancer-fighting cells to destroy various types of cancerous tumors. Technology and discovery like this allows BriaPro to also exist
and be an early competitor in a market subset of AI-driven drug discovery, a sector that has seen investments triple over the past four
years, reaching $24.6 billion in 2022.2
BriaPro
expects any products that it develops and commercializes to compete on the basis of, among other things, efficacy, safety, price and
the availability of reimbursement from government and other third-party payors. BriaPro’s commercial opportunity is significantly
influenced by its ability to obtain regulatory approval for current product candidates or any future product candidate more rapidly than
BriaPro’s competitors.

Regulatory
Environment
Drug
products must be approved by the appropriate governing body before it can be sold in that country or area. The FDA approves products
for the United States market and Health Canada approves products for the Canadian market. The European Medicines Agency (“EMA”)
approves products for the European Union. While the process by which products are approved by the FDA and Health Canada is very similar,
each regulatory body has its own unique requirements for a product. In both cases, the development of a product through to approval can
be a lengthy process and, in some cases, can take over ten years. While early studies conducted in one jurisdiction will usually be accepted
in the other, further and somewhat modified studies may be required to have a product approved in another jurisdiction.
The
process required by the FDA before drug products may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:
|
● |
completion
of extensive preclinical laboratory tests and preclinical animal studies, some performed in |
|
|
|
|
● |
accordance
with the GLP regulations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
submission
to the FDA of a pre-investigational new drug (“IND”), which must be reviewed by the FDA and become active before
human clinical trials may begin and must be updated annually; |
|
|
|
|
● |
approval
by an independent review board (“IRB”) or ethics committee representing each clinical site before each clinical
trial may be initiated; |
|
|
|
|
● |
performance
of adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials conducted under Good Clinical Practices (“GCP”) to establish
the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication; |
|
|
|
|
● |
preparation
of and submission to the FDA of an NDA or BLA after completion of all pivotal clinical trials; |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
determination by the FDA within 60 days of its receipt of an NDA or BLA to file the application for review; |
|
|
|
|
● |
potential
review of the product application by an FDA advisory committee, where appropriate and if applicable; |
|
|
|
|
● |
satisfactory
completion of an FDA pre-approval inspection of the manufacturing facilities where the proposed product is produced to assess compliance
with cGMP. |
|
|
|
|
● |
a
potential FDA audit of the preclinical research and clinical trial sites that generated the data in support of the NDA or a Biological
License Application (“BLA”); and |
|
|
|
|
● |
FDA
review and approval of an NDA or BLA prior to any commercial marketing or sale of the product in the United States. |
The
preclinical research, clinical testing and approval process require substantial time, effort, and financial resources, and BriaPro cannot
be certain that any approvals for BriaPro’s product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all. An IND is a request
for authorization from the FDA to administer an investigational new drug product to humans in clinical trials. The central focus of an
IND submission is on the general investigational plan and the protocol(s) for human clinical trials. The IND also includes results of
animal studies assessing the toxicology, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, and pharmacodynamic characteristics of the product; chemistry,
manufacturing, and controls information; and any available human data or literature to support the use of the investigational new drug.
An IND must become effective before human clinical trials may begin. An IND will automatically become effective 30 days after receipt
by the FDA, unless before that time the FDA raises concerns or questions related to the proposed clinical trials. In such a case, the
IND may be placed on clinical hold and the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questions before clinical
trials can begin. Accordingly, submission of an IND may or may not result in the FDA allowing clinical trials to commence. As drug product
programs continue in development, clinical trial protocols, additional preclinical testing results, and manufacturing information is
submitted with the IND to facilitate discussions with the FDA and approval of additional clinical trials. See “Risk Factors.”
Options
and Other Rights to Purchase Shares
The
BriaPro Board adopted the BriaPro Incentive Plan, and the BriaCell Shareholders subsequently approved same. The purpose of the
BriaPro Incentive Plan is to allow BriaPro to issue performance share units (“PSUs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”),
and deferred share units (“DSUs” and together with the PSUs and RSUs, “Share Units”) and BriaPro Options
(together with the Share Units, “Awards”) to directors, officers, employees and consultants, as additional compensation,
and as an opportunity to participate in the success of BriaPro. The granting of such options is intended to align the interests of such
persons with that of the shareholders.
Following
the closing of the Arrangement and the exchange of BriaCell Options for BriaCell Replacement Options and BriaPro Options
under the Plan of Arrangement, BriaCell Replacement Options (and, any new options of BriaCell granted thereafter) will
continue to be governed by the BriaCell Omnibus Plan or BriaCell Stock Option Plan, as applicable, based on the original
issuance of such BriaCell Options, and BriaPro Options shall be governed by the BriaPro Incentive Plan. The exercise price of
the BriaCell Options exchanged will be apportioned between the BriaCell Replacement Options and the BriaPro Options, subject
to adjustments as provided for therein.
There
are no other immediate plans to grant BriaPro Options under the BriaPro Incentive Plan. As the date hereof, there is no current market
for the BriaPro Shares.
Prior
Sales
On
May 15, 2023, BriaPro has issued one (1) incorporation BriaPro Share to BriaCell for consideration of C$1.00.
Following
completion of the Arrangement, on August 31, 2023, the Company issued BriaCell and BriaCell shareholders, 31,963,451 and
15,981,726 BriaPro shares, respectively for no consideration.
Escrowed
Securities and Securities Subject to Contractual Restriction on Transfer
There
are no BriaPro Shares currently held in escrow or that are subject to a contractual restriction on transfer.
Resale
Restrictions
There
is currently no market through which the BriaPro Shares may be sold and, unless the BriaPro Shares are listed on a stock exchange, BriaCell
Shareholders may not be able to resell the BriaPro Shares. There can be no assurances that BriaPro will be obtain such a listing
on the TSX, NASDAQ or any other recognized North American stock exchange.
Principal
Shareholders
Except
as described below, to the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of BriaPro, and based on existing information as of the
date hereof, no person or company, upon completion of the Arrangement will, beneficially own, or control or direct, directly or indirectly,
voting securities of BriaPro carrying 10.0% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of voting securities of BriaPro, except
from BriaCell, who will initially own 66.67% ownership of BriaPro.

LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements.
The
Company is an early-stage biotech company focused on research and development of its products, and currently does not generate any revenues
from its operations.
The
Company’s current financial resources are not sufficient to meet its short-term liquidity requirements and to fund its operations
for at least the coming 12 months, and will require additional proceeds to be raised through an offering of securities.
For
the year ended July 31,2024, the Company has a negative working capital of $455,649 (July 31, 2023 – $1) and an accumulated
deficit of $440,209 (July 31, 2023 - $nil).
For
the year ended July 31,2024, the Company’s overall position of cash and cash equivalents remained unchanged. This can be attributed
to the following:
The
Company’s net cash used in operating activities during the year ended July 31,2024, was nil. as the Company continues to
be financed by its holding company – BriaCell.
Capital
Management
The
Company manages its capital to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern and to provide returns to shareholders and benefits
to other stakeholders. The capital structure of the Company consists of cash and equity comprised of issued capital.
The
Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of economic conditions. The Company, upon approval from its
Board of Directors, will balance its overall capital structure through new share issuances or by undertaking other activities as deemed
appropriate under the specific circumstances.
The
Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and the Company’s overall strategy with respect to capital risk
management remains unchanged.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
There
are no off-balance sheet arrangements to which the Company is committed.
Transactions
With Related Parties
Parties are considered to be
related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the
other party in making operating and financial decisions. This would include the Company’s directors and senior management (CEO and CFO),
who are considered to be key management personnel by the Company. Parties are also related if they are subject to
common control or significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be
a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
As of July 31, 2024, pursuant to the
Transition Agreement, the balance owing to BriaCell group companies is $424,654 comprising the fixed monthly services of $220,000 and
direct expenses of $204,654 of BriaCell on behalf of BriaPro.
During the year ended July 31, 2024,
the Company incurred Services and direct expense paid for by BriaCell in the amount of $424,654.
Financial
Instruments and Financial Risk Exposures
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loans from a related party, and
the warrant liability. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest
or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values,
unless otherwise noted.
Management
understands that the Company is exposed to financial risk arising from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility
of these rates as a portion of the Company’s transactions occur in Canadian Dollars, and the Company’s functional and presentation
currency is the US dollar. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
The
Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors
the risk management process. The overall objectives of the Board are to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without
unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility.
The
type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is as follows:
The
Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. Management believes that the credit risk concentration
with respect to financial instruments is remote.
The
Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities as they come
due. Until the Company raises additional financing, it is entirely dependent on BriaCell to finance the Company’s operations.
As of July 31, 2024, the Company has a negative working capital balance of $455,649 (July 31, 2023 – working capital of
$1). The table below presents the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments:

Interest
Rate risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Loans
payable include both fixed and variable interest rates; however, the Company does not believe it is exposed to material interest rate
risk.
As
the Company has no revenues, price risk is remote.
The
Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as a portion of the Company’s transactions occur in Canadian Dollars and, therefore,
the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period through its Canadian denominated accounts payable
and cash. As of July 31, 2024, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would not have a
material effect on the in total loss and comprehensive loss.
The
carrying values of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short terms to maturity.
Cash,
is valued using quoted market prices in active markets. The warrant liability is measured using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

Critical Estimates and Judgements
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during
the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. The consolidated financial statements include estimates
which, by their nature, are uncertain. 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 also in future periods when the revision affects both current and future periods.
New
Accounting Policies Adopted
There
are a number of standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations which have been issued by the IASB that are effective in future
accounting periods that the Company has decided not to adopt early.
The
following amendments are effective for the annual periods beginning 1 January 2024:
|
- |
IFRS
16 Leases (Amendment – Liability in a Sale and Leaseback) |
|
|
|
|
- |
IAS
1 Presentation of Consolidated Financial Statements (Amendment – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current) |
|
|
|
|
- |
IAS
1 Presentation of Consolidated Financial Statements (Amendment – Non-current Liabilities with Covenants) |
The
Company has assessed the impact of these new accounting standards and amendments and adopted them. There were no significant impact these
consolidated financial statements..
The
Company does not expect any other standards issued by the IASB, but not yet effective, to have a material impact on the Company.
Additional
Disclosure for Companies Without Significant Revenue

analysis of material components of the Company’s general and administrative expenses is disclosed in the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended July 31, 2024, to which this MD&A relates.
Additional
Disclosure for Companies Without Significant Revenue
An
analysis of material components of the Company’s general and administrative expenses is disclosed in the Consolidated Financial
Statements for the period from inception through to July 31, 2024, to which this MD&A relates.
Disclosure
of Outstanding Share Data
Authorized
share capital consists of unlimited number of common shares without par value.
As
of July 31, 2024, and November 1, 2024, the Company had 47,945,178 common shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
As
of July 31, 2024, and November 1, 2024, the Company had 2,131,400 stock options outstanding.
As
of July 31, 2024, and November 1, 2024, the Company had no share purchase warrants outstanding. However, BriaCell has 8,168,302
warrants outstanding, and these warrants entitle holders thereof to receive, upon the exercise thereof, one BriaCell Share
and one BriaPro Share for the original exercise price.
As
of July 31, 2024, and November 1, 2024, the Company had 19,200 RSUs outstanding, respectively.
Risk
Factors
The
Company business, and investing in the Company’s securities, are subject to numerous risks. If any of these risks actually occur,
the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations would likely be materially adversely affected. In each case,
the trading price of the Company’s securities would likely decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment. The
following is a summary of some of the principal risks the Company faces:
Risks
Associated with the Business
Nature
of the Securities and No Assurance of any Listing
BriaPro
Shares are not currently, and will not as a result of the Arrangement, be listed on any stock exchange and there is no assurance that
the BriaPro Shares will ever be listed on any stock exchange. Even if a listing is obtained in the future, the holding of BriaPro Shares
will involve a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by investors whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them
to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. BriaPro Shares should not be held by persons who
cannot afford the possibility of the loss of their entire investment. Furthermore, an investment in securities of BriaPro should not
constitute a major portion of an investor’s portfolio.
Future
Sales or Issuances of Securities
BriaPro
may issue additional securities to finance future activities. BriaPro cannot predict the size of future issuances of securities or the
effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of securities will have on the market price of the BriaPro Shares. Sales or issuances
of substantial numbers of BriaPro Shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices
of the BriaPro Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of BriaPro Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and
BriaPro may experience dilution in its earnings per share.
Limited
Operating History
BriaPro
was incorporated on May 15, 2023 and has a limited operating history and no operating revenues.
Lack
of Supporting Clinical Data
The
clinical effectiveness and safety of any of BriaPro’s developmental products is not yet supported by extensive clinical data and
the medical community has not yet developed a large body of peer reviewed literature that supports the safety and efficacy of BriaPro’s
products. If future studies call into question the safety or efficacy of BriaPro’s products, BriaPro’s business, financial
condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Unproven
Market for Product Candidates
BriaPro
believes that the anticipated market for its potential products and technologies if successfully developed will continue to exist and
expand. These assumptions may prove to be incorrect for a variety of reasons, including competition from other products and the degree
of commercial viability of the potential product.
Growth
of Business
Anticipated
growth in all areas of BriaPro’s business is expected to continue to place a significant strain on its managerial, operational
and technical resources. BriaPro expects operating expenses and staffing levels to increase in the future. To manage such growth, BriaPro
must expand its operational and technical capabilities and manage its employee base while effectively administering multiple relationships
with various third parties. There can be no assurance that BriaPro will be able to manage its expanding operations effectively. Any failure
to implement cohesive management and operating systems, to add resources on a cost-effective basis or to properly manage BriaPro’s
expansion could have a material adverse effect on its business and results of operations.
Reliance
on Third Parties
BriaPro
does not expect to have any in-house manufacturing, pharmaceutical development or marketing capability. To be successful, a product must
be manufactured and packaged in commercial quantities in compliance with regulatory requirements and in reasonable time frames and at
accepted costs. BriaPro intends to contract with third parties to develop its products. No assurance can be given that BriaPro or its
suppliers will be able to meet the supply requirements in respect of the product development or commercial sales. Production of therapeutic
products may require raw materials for which the sources and amount of supply are limited, or may be hindered by quality or scheduling
issues in respect of the third party suppliers over which BriaPro has limited control. An inability to obtain adequate supplies of raw
materials could significantly delay the development, regulatory approval and marketing of a product. BriaPro has limited in-house personnel
to internally manage all aspects of product development, including the management of multi-center clinical trials. BriaPro is significantly
reliant on third-party consultants and contractors to provide the requisite advice and management. There can be no assurance that the
clinical trials and product development will not encounter delays which could adversely affect prospects for BriaPro’s success.
To be successful, an approved product must also be successfully marketed. The market for BriaPro’s product being developed by BriaPro
may be large and will require substantial sales and marketing capability. At the present time, BriaPro does not have any internal capability
to market pharmaceutical products. BriaPro intends to enter into one or more strategic partnerships or collaborative arrangements with
pharmaceutical companies or other companies with marketing and distribution expertise to address this need. If necessary, BriaPro will
establish arrangements with various partners for geographical areas. There can be no assurance that BriaPro can market, or can enter
into a satisfactory arrangement with a third party to market a product in a manner that would assure its acceptance in the marketplace.
However,
if a satisfactory arrangement with a third party to market and/or distribute a product is obtained; BriaPro will be dependent on the
corporate collaborator(s) who may not devote sufficient time, resources and attention to BriaPro’s programs, which may hinder efforts
to market the products. Should BriaPro not establish marketing and distribution strategic partnerships and collaborative arrangements
on acceptable terms, and undertake some or all of those functions, BriaPro will require significant additional human and financial resources
and expertise to undertake these activities, the availability of which is not guaranteed. BriaPro will rely on third parties for the
timely supply of raw materials, equipment, contract manufacturing, and formulation or packaging services. Although BriaPro intends to
manage these third-party relationships to ensure continuity and quality, some events beyond BriaPro’s control could result in complete
or partial failure of these goods and services. Any such failure could have a material adverse effect on the financial conditions and
results of operations of BriaPro. Due to the complexity of the process of developing pharmaceutical products, BriaPro’s business
may depend on arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, corporate and academic collaborators, licensors, licensees
and others for the research, development, clinical testing, technology rights, manufacturing, marketing and commercialization of its
products. Such agreements could obligate BriaPro to diligently bring potential products to market, make milestone payments and royalties
that, in some instances, could be substantial, and incur the costs of filing and prosecuting patent applications. There can be no assurance
that BriaPro will be able to establish or maintain collaborations that are important to its business on favorable terms, or at all. A
number of risks arise from BriaPro’s potential dependence on collaborative agreements with third parties. Product development and
commercialization efforts could be adversely affected if any collaborative partner terminates or suspends its agreement with BriaPro,
causes delays, fails to on a timely basis develop or manufacture in adequate quantities a substance needed in order to conduct clinical
trials, fails to adequately perform clinical trials, determines not to develop, manufacture or commercialize a product to which it has
rights, or otherwise fails to meet its contractual obligations. BriaPro’s collaborative partners could pursue other technologies
or develop alternative products that could compete with the products BriaPro is developing.
BriaPro
is expected to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements (“NDA”) with third parties with which it engages in research and development
activities. There is no guarantee that, despite the terms of the NDA which bind third parties, BriaPro will ultimately be able to prevent
such third parties from breaching their obligations under the NDA. Use of BriaPro’s confidential information in an unauthorized
manner is likely to negatively affect BriaPro.
Pre-Clinical
Studies and Initial Clinical Trials Not Necessarily Predictive of Future Results
Pre-clinical
tests and Phase I/II clinical trials are primarily designed to test safety, to study pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and to understand
the side effects of product candidates at various doses and schedules. Success in pre-clinical and early clinical trials does not ensure
that later large-scale efficacy trials will be successful, nor does it predict final results. Favorable results in early trials may not
be repeated in later trials. A number of companies in the life sciences industry have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical
trials, even after positive results in earlier trials. Clinical results are frequently susceptible to varying interpretations that may
delay, limit or prevent regulatory approvals. Negative or inconclusive results or adverse medical events during a clinical trial could
cause a clinical trial to be delayed, repeated or terminated. Any pre-clinical data and the clinical results obtained for BriaPro’s
technology may not predict results from studies in larger numbers of subjects drawn from more diverse populations or in the commercial
setting, and also may not predict the ability of BriaPro’s products to achieve their intended goals, or to do so safely.
Results
of Early Clinical Trials May Not be Predictive of Future Trial Results
BriaPro
has limited experience in conducting and managing the clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approvals, including the United
States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval. Clinical trials are expensive and complex, can take many years and
have uncertain outcomes. BriaPro cannot predict whether it or its licensees will encounter problems with any of the completed, ongoing
or planned clinical trials that will cause it or its licensees or regulatory authorities to delay or suspend clinical trials, or delay
the analysis of data from completed or ongoing clinical trials. BriaPro estimates that clinical trials of their most advanced therapeutic
candidates will continue for several years, but they may take significantly longer to complete. Failure can occur at any stage of the
testing and BriaPro may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, the clinical trial process that could delay
or prevent commercialization of their current or future therapeutic candidates, including but not limited to: delays in securing clinical
investigators or trial sites for the clinical trials; delays in obtaining institutional review board and other regulatory approvals to
commence a clinical trial; slower than anticipated patient recruitment and enrollment; negative or inconclusive results from clinical
trials; unforeseen safety issues; uncertain dosing issues; an inability to monitor patients adequately during or after treatment; and
problems with investigator or patient compliance with the trial protocols. A number of companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology
industries, including those with greater resources and experience than BriaPro, have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical
trials, even after seeing promising results in earlier clinical trials. Despite the results reported in earlier clinical trials for BriaPro’s
therapeutic candidates, BriaPro does not know whether any phase 3 or other clinical trials that BriaPro or its licensees may conduct
will demonstrate adequate efficacy and safety to result in regulatory approval to market BriaPro’s therapeutic candidates. If later-stage
clinical trials of any therapeutic candidate do not produce favorable results, BriaPro’s ability to obtain regulatory approval
for the therapeutic candidate may be adversely impacted, which will have a material adverse effect on BriaPro’s business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Inability
to Obtain Raw Materials
Raw
materials and supplies are generally available in quantities to meet the needs of BriaPro’s business. BriaPro will be dependent
on third-party manufacturers for the pharmaceutical products that it markets An inability to obtain raw materials or product supply could
have a material adverse impact on BriaPro’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Must
Obtain Additional Capital to Continue Operations
BriaPro
anticipates that additional capital will be required to complete its current research and development programs. It is anticipated that
future research, additional pre-clinical and toxicology studies and manufacturing initiatives, including to prepare for market approval
and successful product market launch, will require additional funds. Further financing may dilute the current holdings of shareholders
and may thereby result in a loss for the shareholders. There can be no assurance that BriaPro will be able to obtain adequate financing,
or financing on terms that are reasonable or acceptable for these or other purposes, or to fulfill BriaPro’s obligations under
various license agreements. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further research
and development of BriaPro’s technologies with the possible loss of license rights to these technologies.
Highly
Dependent on Key Personnel.
Although
BriaPro is expected to have experienced senior management and personnel, BriaPro will be substantially dependent upon the services of
a few key personnel, particularly Dr. William V. Williams, Dr. Giuseppe Del Priore, Dr. Miguel Lopez-Lago and other professionals for
the successful operation of its business. The loss of the services of any of these personnel could have a material adverse effect on
the business of BriaPro. BriaPro may not be able to attract and retain personnel on acceptable terms given the intense competition for
such personnel among high technology enterprises, including biotechnology and healthcare companies, universities and non-profit research
institutions. If BriaPro loses any of these persons, or is unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, BriaPro’s business,
financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. BriaPro’s directors and officers and other
BriaCell personnel support made available pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement may be subject to competing commitments
to BriaCell and its research and development programs.
Conflicts
of Interest
Certain
directors and officers of BriaPro are, and may continue to be, involved in the health and biotechnology industries through their direct
and indirect participation in corporations, partnerships or joint ventures which are potential competitors of BriaPro, including BriaCell.
Situations may arise in connection with potential acquisitions in investments where the other interests of these directors and officers
may conflict with the interests of BriaPro. Directors and officers of BriaPro with conflicts of interest will be subject to the procedures
set out in applicable corporate and Securities Legislation, regulation, rules and policies.
No
History of Earnings
BriaPro
has no history of earnings or of a return on investment, and there is no assurance that BriaPro Assets or any other asset or business
that BriaPro may acquire or undertake will generate earnings, operate profitably or provide a return on investment in the future. BriaPro
has no plans to pay dividends for some time in the future, if ever. The future dividend policy of BriaPro will be determined by the BriaPro
Board.
Risks
Related to Regulatory Changes
Existing
and proposed changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies may cause BriaPro to incur increased costs as BriaPro evaluates
the implications of new rules and responds to new requirements. Failure to comply with new rules and regulations could result in enforcement
actions or the assessment of other penalties. New laws and regulations could make it more difficult to obtain certain types of insurance,
including director’s and officer’s liability insurance, and BriaPro may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage
or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage, to the extent that such coverage remains available.
The
impact of these events could also make it more difficult for BriaPro to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the Board, or
as executive officers. BriaPro may be required to hire additional personnel and utilize additional outside legal, accounting and advisory
services, all of which could cause the BriaPro’s general and administrative costs to increase beyond what BriaPro currently has
planned. Although BriaPro will evaluate and monitor developments with respect to new rules and laws, BriaPro cannot predict or estimate
the amount of the additional costs BriaPro may incur or the timing of such costs with respect to such evaluations and/or compliance and
cannot provide assurances that such additional costs will render BriaPro compliant with such new rules and laws.
Dilution
Issuances
of additional securities including, but not limited to, BriaPro Shares, BriaPro Options or some form of convertible debentures, will
result in a substantial dilution of the equity interests of any persons who may become BriaPro Shareholders as a result of or subsequent
to the Arrangement.
No
Independent Operating History
The
BriaPro Assets have no operating history independent from BriaCell, and estimates of future cash flows have been based upon the
combined operations of BriaPro and BriaCell. There can be no assurance that the estimates of future cash flows will prove to be
accurate once BriaPro begins operating independently.
Early
Stage Development Company
Market
perception of early stage companies may change, potentially affecting the value of investors’ holdings and the ability of BriaPro
to raise further funds through the issue of further BriaPro Shares or otherwise. BriaPro is developing novel technologies that may not
be efficacious or safe. BriaPro expects to spend a significant amount of capital to fund research and development. As a result, BriaPro
expects that its operating expenses will increase significantly and, consequently, it will need to generate significant revenues to become
profitable. Even if BriaPro does become profitable, it may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual
basis. BriaPro cannot predict when, if ever, it will be profitable. There can be no assurances that the intellectual property of BriaPro,
or other technologies it may acquire, will meet applicable regulatory standards, obtain required regulatory approvals, be capable of
being produced in commercial quantities at reasonable costs, or be successfully marketed. BriaPro will be undertaking additional laboratory
studies or trials with respect to the intellectual property of BriaPro, and there can be no assurance that the results from such studies
or trials will result in a commercially viable product or will not identify unwanted side effects.
Dividend
Policy
No
dividends on BriaPro Shares have been paid by BriaPro to date. BriaPro anticipates that it will retain all earnings and other cash resources
for the foreseeable future for the operation and development of its business. Payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion
of the BriaPro Board after taking into account many factors, including BriaPro’s operating results, financial condition and current
and anticipated cash needs.
Government
Regulations, Permits and Licenses
BriaPro’s
operations may be subject to governmental laws or regulations promulgated by various legislatures or governmental agencies from time
to time. A breach of such legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental
regulations has the potential to reduce the profitability of operations. BriaPro intends to fully comply with all governmental laws and
regulations. While there are currently no indications that BriaPro will require approval by a governmental or regulatory authority in
Canada or the U.S., such approvals may ultimately be required. If any permits are required for BriaPro’s operations and activities
in the future, there can be no assurance that such permits will be obtainable on reasonable terms or on a timely basis, or that applicable
laws and regulations will not have an adverse effect on BriaPro’s business.
The
current and future operations of BriaPro are and will be governed by laws and regulations governing the healthcare industry, labor
standards, occupational health and safety, land use, environmental protection, and other matters. Amendments to current laws, regulations
and permits governing operations, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on BriaPro and cause
increases in capital expenditures or costs, or reduction in levels of its medical services.
Privacy
and Data Regulation
BriaPro
may be subject to federal, state and provincial data protection laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates, such
as laws and regulations that address privacy and data security. BriaPro may obtain health information from third parties, which are subject
to privacy and security requirements under applicable laws. Depending on the facts and circumstances, BriaPro could be subject to significant
civil, criminal, and administrative penalties if it obtains, uses, or discloses individually identifiable health information maintained
by entities covered by applicable health and data protection laws in a manner that is not authorized or permitted by such laws.
Compliance
with privacy and data protection laws and regulations could require BriaPro to contractually restrict its ability to collect, use and
disclose data, or in some cases, impact its ability to operate in certain jurisdictions. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations
could result in civil, criminal and administrative penalties, private litigation, or adverse publicity and could negatively affect BriaPro’s
operating results and business. Moreover, clinical trial subjects, employees and other individuals may limit our ability to collect,
use and disclose information collected. Claims that BriaPro has violated privacy rights, failed to comply with data protection laws,
or otherwise breached obligations, could be expensive and time-consuming to defend and could result in adverse publicity that could harm
BriaPro’s business.
Data
Security
BriaPro
and its customers could suffer harm if personal and health information were accessed by third parties due to a system security failure.
The collection of data requires BriaPro to receive and store a large amount of personally identifiable data. Recently, data security
breaches suffered by well-known companies and institutions have attracted a substantial amount of media attention, prompting legislative
proposals addressing data privacy and security. BriaPro may become exposed to potential liabilities with respect to the data that it
collects, manages and processes, and may incur legal costs if information security policies and procedures are not effective or if BriaPro
is required to defend its methods of collection, processing and storage of personal data. Future investigations, lawsuits or adverse
publicity relating to its methods of handling such information could have a material adverse effect on BriaPro’s business, financial
condition and results of operations due to the costs and negative market reaction relating to such developments.
Product
Liability
As
BriaPro’s drug candidates enter clinical trials, BriaPro will face an inherent risk of product liability suits and will face an
even greater risk if BriaPro obtains approval to commercialize any drugs. For example, BriaPro may be sued if its drug candidates cause
or are perceived to cause injury or are found to be otherwise unsuitable during clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any
such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent
in the drug, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts.
If BriaPro cannot successfully defend itself against product liability claims, BriaPro may incur substantial liabilities or be required
to limit commercialization of BriaPro’s drug candidates. Even successful defense would require significant financial and management
resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in: decreased demand for BriaPro’s drugs;
injury to BriaPro’s reputation; withdrawal of clinical trial participants and inability to continue clinical trials; initiation
of investigations by regulators; costs to defend the related litigation; diversion of management’s time and BriaPro’s resources;
substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients; product recalls, withdrawals or labeling, marketing or promotional restrictions;
loss of revenue; exhaustion of any available insurance and BriaPro’s capital resources; the inability to commercialize any drug
candidate; and a decline in the price of BriaPro Shares.
BriaPro
shall seek to obtain the appropriate insurance once its candidates are ready for clinical trial. However, BriaPro’s inability to
obtain sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent
or inhibit the commercialization of drugs BriaPro develops, alone or with collaborators. BriaPro does not currently have in place product
liability insurance and although BriaPro plans to have in place such insurance as and when the products are ready for commercialization,
as well as insurance covering clinical trials, the amount of such insurance coverage may not be adequate, BriaPro may be unable to maintain
such insurance, or may not be able to obtain additional or replacement insurance at a reasonable cost, if at all. BriaPro’s insurance
policies may also have various exclusions, and may be subject to a product liability claim for which BriaPro has no coverage. BriaPro
may have to pay any amounts awarded by a court or negotiated in a settlement that exceed BriaPro’s coverage limitations or that
are not covered by BriaPro’s insurance, and may not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient capital to pay such amounts. Even if
BriaPro’s agreements with any future corporate collaborators entitle BriaPro to indemnification against losses, such indemnification
may not be available or adequate should any claim arise.
Additionally,
BriaPro may be sued if the products that BriaPro commercialize, market or sell cause or are perceived to cause injury or are found to
be otherwise unsuitable, and may result in: decreased demand for those products; damage to BriaPro’s reputation; costs incurred
related to product recalls; limiting BriaPro’s opportunities to enter into future commercial partnerships; and a decline in the
price of BriaPro’s common shares.
Third
Party License Risk
BriaPro’s
intellectual property is currently under third-party licenses and may require additional third-party licenses to effectively develop
and manufacture its key products or future technologies. BriaPro is currently unable to predict the availability or cost of such licenses.
A substantial number of patents have already been issued to other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. To the extent that valid
third-party patent rights cover BriaPro’s products or services, BriaPro or its strategic collaborators would be required to seek
licenses from the holders of these patents in order to manufacture, use or sell these products and services, and payments under them
would reduce BriaPro’s profits from these products and services. BriaPro is currently unable to predict the extent to which it
may wish or be required to acquire rights under such patents, the availability and cost of acquiring such rights, and whether a license
to such patents will be available on acceptable terms or at all. There may be patents in the U.S. or in foreign countries or patents
issued in the future that are unavailable to license on acceptable terms. BriaPro’s inability to obtain such licenses may hinder
or eliminate an ability to manufacture and market products.
Failure
to Comply with Intellectual Property or License Agreements
BriaPro
is or may become a party to third-party agreements under which BriaPro grants or is granted rights to intellectual property that are
potentially important to BriaPro’s business and BriaPro expect that BriaPro may need to enter into additional license or collaboration
agreements in the future. BriaPro’s existing third party agreements impose, and BriaPro expect that future license agreements will
impose, various obligations related to, among other things, therapeutic development and payment of royalties and fees based on achieving
certain milestones. In addition, under several of BriaPro’s collaboration agreements, BriaPro are prohibited from developing and
commercializing therapies that would compete with the therapies licensed under such agreements.
If
BriaPro fails to comply with BriaPro’s obligations under these agreements, BriaPro’s licensor or collaboration partner may
have the right to terminate the agreement, including any licenses included in such agreement. The termination of any license or collaboration
agreements or failure to adequately protect such license agreements or collaboration could prevent BriaPro from commercializing BriaPro’s
therapeutic candidates or any future therapeutic candidates covered by the agreement or licensed intellectual property. For example,
BriaPro may rely on license agreements which grant failure BriaPro rights to certain intellectual property and proprietary materials
that BriaPro use in connection with the development of BriaPro’s therapies. If this agreement were to terminate, BriaPro would
be unable to timely license similar intellectual property and proprietary materials from an alternate source, on commercially reasonable
terms or at all, and may be required to conduct additional bridging studies on BriaPro’s therapeutic candidates or any future therapeutic
candidates, which could delay or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the development and commercialization of BriaPro’s
therapeutic candidates or any future therapeutic candidates.
Reliance
on the Transition Services Agreement
BriaPro
will enter into a Transition Services Agreement with BriaCell, whereby certain BriaCell employees will assist with the
day to day operation of BriaPro. In the short term, BriaPro will continue to rely on BriaCell to assist with operations. If such
agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable or is terminated by the counterparty, this could have a material adverse effect on
the business, prospects, financial condition and operating results of BriaPro.
Significant
Majority Shareholder
BriaCell
owns a substantial number of the outstanding BriaPro
Shares (on a non-diluted and partially-diluted basis). As such, BriaCell is able to exercise influence over matters requiring
shareholder approval, including the election of directors and the determination of corporate actions. As well, BriaCell could
delay or prevent a change in control of the BriaPro that could otherwise be beneficial to the BriaPro Shareholders.
Inflation
Inflation
has the potential to adversely affect BriaPro’s business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity by increasing
BriaPro’s overall cost structure, particularly if BriaPro is unable to achieve commensurate increases in the prices it charges
customers. The existence of inflation in the economy has the potential to result in higher interest rates and capital costs, supply shortages,
increased costs of labor and other similar effects. As a result of inflation, BriaPro may experience increases in the costs of labor,
materials, and other inputs, such as engineering consultants. Although BriaPro may take measures to mitigate the impact of this inflation,
if these measures are not effective BriaPro’s business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity could be materially
adversely affected. Even if such measures are effective, there could be a difference between the timing of when these beneficial actions
impact BriaPro’s results of operations and when the cost of inflation is incurred.
Failure
to Remediate Material Weaknesses in Internal Accounting Controls
Management
may identify material weaknesses in BriaPro’s internal control over financial reporting related to lack of segregation of duties
within account processes, and systems, inadequate documentation to evidence the operation of controls, inconsistent procedures and approvals,
lack of periodic user access reviews, lack of assessment of controls of financially significant vendors and insufficient written policies
and procedures for accounting, IT and financial reporting and record keeping. BriaPro’s management may concluded that, due to such
material weakness, BriaPro was not active during the period ended July 31, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures will need to be implemented
going forward. Management is implementing processes to document and retain evidence to support reviews and reconciliations. Such changes
may not, however, be effective in establishing the adequacy of BriaPro’s internal control over financial reporting. If the material
weaknesses are not adequately remedied, or if BriaPro identifies further material weaknesses in its internal controls, BriaPro’s
failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could result
in material misstatements in its Consolidated Financial Statements and a failure to meet reporting and financial obligations, each of
which could have a material adverse effect on BriaPro’s financial condition. In addition, investors’ perceptions that BriaPro’s
internal control over financial reporting is inadequate or that BriaPro is unable to produce accurate Consolidated Financial Statements
may materially adversely affect the price of BriaPro’s securities.
Government
Price Controls and Other Restrictions on Pricing, Reimbursement and Access to Drugs
To
the extent BriaPro’s products are developed, commercialized, and successfully introduced to market, they may not be considered
cost-effective and third-party or government reimbursement might not be available or sufficient. Globally, governmental and other third-party
payors are becoming increasingly aggressive in attempting to contain health care costs by strictly controlling, directly or indirectly,
pricing and reimbursement and, in some cases, limiting or denying coverage altogether on the basis of a variety of justifications, and
BriaPro expects pressures on pricing and reimbursement from both governments and private payors inside and outside the U.S. to continue.
In the U.S., BriaPro may in the future be subject to substantial pricing, reimbursement, and access pressures from state Medicaid programs,
private insurance programs and pharmacy benefit managers, and implementation of U.S. health care reform legislation is increasing these
pricing pressures. The Affordable Care Act instituted comprehensive health care reform, and includes provisions that, among other things,
reduce and/or limit Medicare reimbursement, require all individuals to have health insurance (with limited exceptions), and impose new
and/or increased taxes. The future of the Affordable Care Act and its constituent parts are uncertain at this time. In almost all markets,
pricing and choice of prescription pharmaceuticals are subject to governmental control. Therefore, the price of BriaPro’s products
and their reimbursement in Europe and in other countries is and will be determined by national regulatory authorities. Reimbursement
decisions from one or more of the European markets may impact reimbursement decisions in other European markets. A variety of factors
are considered in making reimbursement decisions, including whether there is sufficient evidence to show that treatment with the product
is more effective than current treatments, that the product represents good value for money for the health service it provides, and that
treatment with the product works at least as well as currently available treatments. The continuing efforts of government and insurance
companies, health maintenance organizations, and other payors of health care costs to contain or reduce costs of health care may affect
BriaPro’s future revenues and profitability or those of BriaPro’s potential customers, suppliers, and collaborative partners,
as well as the availability of capital.
U.S.
Federal and State Privacy Laws May Increase Costs of Operation and Expose BriaPro to Civil and Criminal Sanctions
Pursuant
to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPPA”), and the regulations that have been issued under
it, and similar laws outside the United States, contains substantial restrictions and requirements with respect to the use and disclosure
of individuals’ protected health information. The HIPAA privacy rules prohibit “covered entities,” such as healthcare
providers and health plans, from using or disclosing an individual’s protected health information, unless the use or disclosure
is authorized by the individual or is specifically required or permitted under the privacy rules. Under the HIPAA security rules, covered
entities must establish administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability
of electronic protected health information maintained or transmitted by them or by others on their behalf. While BriaPro does not believe
that it will be a covered entity under HIPAA, BriaPro believes many of its potential future customers will be covered entities subject
to HIPAA. Such customers may require BriaPro to enter into business associate agreements, which will obligate BriaPro to safeguard certain
health information obtained in the course of BriaPro’s relationship with them, restrict the manner in which BriaPro may use and
disclose such information and impose liability on BriaPro for failure to meet contractual obligations.
In
addition, under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH”), which was signed
into law as part of the U.S. stimulus package in February 2009, certain of HIPAA’s privacy and security requirements are now also
directly applicable to “business associates” of covered entities and subject them to direct governmental enforcement for
failure to comply with these requirements. BriaPro may be deemed as a “business associate” of some of its customers. As a
result, BriaPro may be subject as a “business associate” to civil and criminal penalties for failure to comply with applicable
privacy and security rule requirements. Moreover, HITECH created a new requirement obligating “business associates” to report
any breach of unsecured, individually identifiable health information to their covered entity customers and imposes penalties for failing
to do so.
In
addition to HIPAA, most U.S. states have enacted patient confidentiality laws that protect against the disclosure of confidential medical
information, and many U.S. states have adopted or are considering adopting further legislation in this area, including privacy safeguards,
security standards, and data security breach notification requirements. These U.S. state laws, which may be even more stringent than
the HIPAA requirements, are not supplanted by the federal requirements, and BriaPro is therefore required to comply with them to the
extent they are applicable to its operations. These and other possible changes to HIPAA or other U.S. federal or state laws or regulations,
or comparable laws and regulations in countries where BriaPro conducts business, could affect BriaPro’s business and the costs
of compliance could be significant. Failure by BriaPro to comply with any of the standards regarding patient privacy, identity theft
prevention and detection, and data security may subject BriaPro to penalties, including civil monetary penalties and in some circumstances,
criminal penalties. In addition, such failure may damage BriaPro’s reputation and adversely affect BriaPro’s ability to retain
customers and attract new customers. The protection of personal data, particularly patient data, is subject to strict laws and regulations
in many countries. The collection and use of personal health data in the E.U. is governed by the provisions of Directive 95/46/EC of
the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal
data and on the free movement of such data (the “Data Protection Directive”). The Data Protection Directive imposes a number
of requirements, including an obligation to seek the consent of individuals to whom the personal data relates, the information that must
be provided to the individuals, notification of data processing obligations to the competent national data protection authorities of
individual E.U. member states and the security and confidentiality of the personal data. The Data Protection Directive also imposes strict
rules on the transfer of personal data out of the E.U. to the U.S. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Data Protection Directive
and the related national data protection laws of the E.U. member states may result in fines and other administrative penalties and harm
BriaPro’s business. BriaPro may incur extensive costs in ensuring compliance with these laws and regulations, particularly if it
is considered to be a data controller within the meaning of the Data Protection Directive.
Development,
Formulation, Manufacturing, Packaging, Labeling, Handling, Distribution, Import, Export, Licensing, Sale and Storage of Pharmaceuticals
and Medical Devices
Such
laws, regulations and other constraints can exist at the federal, provincial or local levels in Canada and at all levels of government
in foreign jurisdictions. There can be no assurance that BriaPro and BriaPro’s partners are in compliance with all of these laws,
regulations and other constraints. BriaPro and its partners may be required to incur significant costs to comply with such laws and regulations
in the future, and such laws and regulations may have an adverse effect on the business. The failure of BriaPro or its partners to comply
with current or future regulatory requirements could lead to the imposition of significant penalties or claims and may have a material
adverse effect on the business. In addition, the adoption of new laws, regulations or other constraints or changes in the interpretations
of such requirements might result in significant compliance costs or lead BriaPro and its partners to discontinue product development
and could have an adverse effect on the business.
Risks
Associated with BriaPro’s Intellectual Property
Intellectual
Property Litigation
There
is a substantial amount of litigation over patent and other intellectual property rights in the biotechnology industry. Whether or not
a product infringes a patent involves complex legal and factual considerations, the determination of which is often uncertain. BriaPro’s
management is presently unaware of any other parties’ patents and proprietary rights which BriaPro’s products under development
would infringe. Searches typically performed to identify potentially infringed patents of third parties are often not conclusive and,
because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be applications now pending, which may later result in issued patents
which BriaPro’s current or future products may infringe or be alleged to infringe. In addition, BriaPro’s competitors or
other parties may assert that BriaPro’s product candidates and the methods employed may be covered by patents held by them. If
any of BriaPro’s products infringes a valid patent, BriaPro could be prevented from manufacturing or selling such product unless
it is able to obtain a license or able to redesign the product in such a manner as to avoid infringement. A license may not always be
available or may require BriaPro to pay substantial royalties. BriaPro also may not be successful in any attempt to redesign its product
to avoid infringement, nor does a later redesign protect BriaPro from prior infringement. Infringement and other intellectual property
claims, with or without merit, can be expensive and time-consuming to litigate and can divert BriaPro’s management’s attention
from operating BriaPro business.
Steps
Taken to Protect Intellectual Property May be Inadequate
BriaPro’s
ability to establish and maintain a competitive position may be achieved in part by prosecuting claims against others who it believes
to be infringing its rights. In addition, enforcement of BriaPro’s patents in foreign jurisdictions will depend on the legal procedures
in those jurisdictions. In addition to filing patent applications, BriaPro relies on confidentiality, non-compete, non-disclosure and
assignment of inventions provisions, as appropriate, in BriaPro’s agreements with employees, consultants, and service providers,
to protect and otherwise seek to control access to, and distribution of, BriaPro’s proprietary information. These measures may
not be adequate to protect BriaPro’s intellectual property from unauthorized disclosure, third-party infringement or misappropriation,
for the following reasons: the agreements may be breached, may not provide the scope of protection BriaPro believes it provides or may
be determined to be unenforceable; BriaPro may have inadequate remedies for any breach; proprietary information could be disclosed to
BriaPro competitors; or others may independently develop substantially equivalent or superior proprietary information and techniques
or otherwise gain access to BriaPro’s trade secrets or disclose such technologies.
Specifically,
with respect to non-compete agreements, both state law and precedent varies greatly from state to state and BriaPro may be unable to
enforce these agreements, in whole or in part, and it may be difficult for BriaPro to restrict its competitors from gaining the expertise
that its former employees gained while working for BriaPro. If BriaPro’s intellectual property is disclosed or misappropriated,
it could harm BriaPro’s ability to protect its rights and could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition
and results of operations.
Need
to Initiate Lawsuits to Protect or Enforce Patents and Other Intellectual Property Rights
BriaPro
relied on patents, confidentiality and trade secrets to protect a portion of its intellectual property and competitive position. Patent
law relating to the scope of claims in the technology fields in which BriaPro operates is still evolving and, consequently, patent positions
in the biotechnology/pharmaceutical industry can be uncertain. In order to protect or enforce BriaPro’s patent rights, BriaPro
may initiate patent and related litigation against third parties, such as infringement suits or requests for injunctive relief. BriaPro’s
ability to establish and maintain a competitive position may be achieved in part by prosecuting claims against others who it believes
to be infringing its rights. In addition, enforcement of BriaPro’s patents in foreign jurisdictions will depend on the legal procedures
in those jurisdictions. Any lawsuits that BriaPro initiates could be expensive, take significant time and divert BriaPro’s management’s
attention from other business concerns and the outcome of litigation to enforce BriaPro’s intellectual property rights in patents,
copyrights, trade secrets or trademarks is highly unpredictable. Litigation also puts BriaPro’s patents at risk of being invalidated
or interpreted narrowly and BriaPro’s patent applications at risk of not issuing, or adversely affect its ability to distribute
any products that are subject to such litigation. In addition, BriaPro may provoke third parties to assert claims against BriaPro. BriaPro
may not prevail in any lawsuits that it initiates, and the damages or other remedies awarded, including attorney fees, if any, may not
be commercially valuable. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on BriaPro’s business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Damage
Resulting from Claims
Many
of BriaPro’s employees and contractors were previously employed at universities or other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies,
including BriaPro’s competitors or potential competitors. Although no claims against BriaPro are currently pending, BriaPro may
be subject to claims that BriaPro or any employee or contractor have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other
proprietary information of his or her former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. If BriaPro fails
in defending such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, BriaPro may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel.
A loss of key research personnel or their work product could hamper or prevent BriaPro’s ability to commercialize certain therapeutic
candidates, which could severely harm BriaPro’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Even if BriaPro is successful
in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management.
Regulatory
Approval of a New Drug
Once
a new drug application is approved, the product covered thereby becomes a “reference listed drug” in the FDA’s publication,
“Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,” commonly known as the Orange Book. Manufacturers may seek
approval of generic versions of reference listed drugs through submission of abbreviated new drug applications in the United States.
In support of an abbreviated new drug applications, a generic manufacturer need not conduct clinical trials. Rather, the applicant generally
must show that its product has the same active ingredient(s), dosage form, strength, route of administration and conditions of use or
labeling as the reference listed drug and that the generic version is bioequivalent to the reference listed drug, meaning it is absorbed
in the body at the same rate and to the same extent. Generic products may be significantly less costly to bring to market than the reference
listed drug and companies that produce generic products are generally able to offer them at lower prices. Thus, following the introduction
of a generic drug, a significant percentage of the sales of any branded product or reference listed drug is typically lost to the generic
product. The FDA may not approve abbreviated new drug applications for a generic product until any applicable period of non-patent exclusivity
for the reference listed drug has expired. The United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act provides a period of five years of
non-patent exclusivity for a new drug containing a new chemical entity (“NCE”). Specifically, in cases where such exclusivity
has been granted, abbreviated new drug applications may not be submitted to the FDA until the expiration of five years, unless the submission
is accompanied by a Paragraph IV certification that a patent covering the reference listed drug is either invalid or will not be infringed
by the generic product, in which case the applicant may submit its application four years following approval of the reference listed
drug. While BriaPro believes that its products contain active ingredients that would be treated as NCEs by the FDA and, therefore, if
approved, should be afforded five years of data exclusivity, the FDA may disagree with that conclusion and may approve generic products
after a period that is less than five years. If the FDA were to award NCE exclusivity to someone other than BriaPro, BriaPro believes
that it would still be awarded three year “Other” exclusivity protection from generic competition, which is awarded when
an application or supplement contains reports of new clinical investigations (not bioavailability studies) conducted or sponsored by
an applicant and essential for approval. Manufacturers may seek to launch these generic products following the expiration of the applicable
marketing exclusivity period, even if BriaPro still has patent protection for its product. If BriaPro does not maintain patent protection
and data exclusivity for its product candidates, BriaPro’s business may be materially harmed. Competition that BriaPro’s
products may face from generic versions of BriaPro’s products could materially and adversely impact BriaPro’s future revenue,
profitability and cash flows and substantially limit BriaPro’s ability to obtain a return on the investments BriaPro has made in
those product candidates.
Patent
Terms may be Inadequate to protect Competitive Position on Product Candidates for an Adequate Amount of Time
Patents
have a limited lifespan. In the United States, if all maintenance fees are timely paid, the natural expiration of a patent is generally
20 years from its earliest United States non-provisional filing date. Various extensions may be available, but the life of a patent,
and the protection it affords, is limited. Even if patents covering BriaPro’s product candidates are obtained, once the patent
life has expired, BriaPro may be open to competition from competitive products, including generics or biosimilars. Given the amount of
time required for the development, testing, and regulatory review of new product candidates, patents protecting such candidates might
expire before or shortly after such candidates are commercialized. As a result, BriaPro’s owned and licensed patent portfolio may
not provide BriaPro with sufficient rights to exclude others from commercializing products similar or identical to BriaPro’s.
General
Risk Factors for BriaPro
BriaPro’s
Operations are Subject to Human Error
Despite
efforts to attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as the retention of qualified consultants, to manage BriaPro’s interests,
and even when those efforts are successful, people are fallible and human error could result in significant uninsured losses to BriaPro.
These could include loss or forfeiture of assets for non-payment of fees or taxes, significant tax liabilities in connection with any
tax planning effort BriaPro might undertake and legal claims for errors or mistakes by BriaPro personnel.
Difficulty
in Enforcing Judgments and Effecting Service of Process on Directors and Officers
Certain
directors and officers of BriaPro reside outside of Canada. Some or all of the assets of such persons may be located outside of Canada.
Therefore, it may not be possible for investors to collect or to enforce judgments obtained in Canadian courts predicated upon the civil
liability provisions of applicable Canadian securities laws against such persons. Moreover, it may not be possible for investors to effect
service of process within Canada upon such persons.
Litigation
BriaPro
may become party to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business, or a claim based in related legal theories of negligence
or vicarious liability among others, which could adversely affect BriaPro’s business. Should any litigation in which BriaPro becomes
involved be determined against BriaPro, such a decision could adversely affect BriaPro’s ability to continue operating and the
market price if ever listed, of BriaPro Shares. Even if BriaPro is involved in litigation and wins, litigation can redirect significant
resources. Litigation may also create a negative perception of BriaPro’s business.
Insurance
BriaPro
believes the Company’s insurance coverage addresses material risks to which it is exposed and that a company of its size and nature
would insure for in the context of underwriting conditions, and is adequate and customary in its current state of operations, however
such insurance is subject to coverage limits and exclusions and may not be available for the risks and hazards to which BriaPro is exposed.
Moreover, there can be no guarantee that BriaPro will be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage in the future or obtain or maintain
liability insurance on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against all potential liabilities.
Social
Media
There
has been a recent marked increase in the use of social media platforms and similar channels that provide individuals with access to a
broad audience of consumers and other interested persons. The availability and impact of information on social media platforms is virtually
immediate and many social media platforms publish user-generated content without filters or independent verification as to the accuracy
of the content posted. Information posted about BriaPro may be averse to BriaPro’s interests or may be inaccurate, each of which
may harm BriaPro’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
