NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS

We are permitted under the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adapted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, to prepare this annual report on Form 40-F, or Annual Report, in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which differ from those of the United States.

These differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP might be material to the financial information presented in this Annual Report. In addition, differences may arise in subsequent periods related to changes in IFRS or U.S. GAAP or due to new transactions we enter into. We are not required to prepare a reconciliation of our consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures between IFRS and U.S. GAAP and have not quantified such differences.

DISCLOSURE CONTROL AND PROCEDURES

At the end of the period covered by this Annual Report for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2020, an evaluation was carried out by management, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and by our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, who are our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined un Rule 13(a)-15(e) of the Exchange Act).

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Internal control over financial reporting, as defined by Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers or persons performing similar functions and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:


   

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

In connection with the Company’s reporting obligations in Canada and its obligations under Rule 13a-15(c) under the Exchange Act, management, under the supervision and with the participation of its CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2020, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting were effective.

NO AUDITORS ATTESTATION REPORT

The Company will be required to provide an attestation report when it no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Registrant has an audit committee, or Audit Committee, comprised of four independent directors, namely: Paul Pommier, its Chair, Gary Littlejohn, Gérald A. Lacoste and Alain Trudeau.

The Audit Committee reviews the financial statements of the Registrant and performs other duties, as described in the Audit Committee’s charter adopted by the board of directors and attached as Schedule “A” to the Annual Information Form of the Registrant for the year ended November 30, 2020 filed as Exhibit 99.1, as set forth in the Exhibit Index attached hereto.

All four members of the Audit Committee are independent and financially literate. The board of directors has determined that Paul Pommier is the financial expert of the Audit Committee. The SEC has indicated that the designation or identification of Mr. Pommier as an audit committee financial expert does not deem him an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on Mr. Pommier that are greater than those imposed on members of the audit committee and board of directors who do not carry this designation or identification, or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the audit committee or board of directors.

The details mentioned hereunder describe the education and experience of the Audit Committee members that is relevant to the performance of their responsibilities, in particular any experience in preparing, auditing, analyzing and evaluating financial statements.

Paul Pommier. Mr. Pommier holds an MBA degree and has more than 25 years of experience in the financial field, notably in public and private company financings, as well as in merger and acquisition activities. While acting as a director of Royal Aviation Inc., he was also a member of its audit committee.

Gary Littlejohn. Mr. Littlejohn holds a B.A. (Honours Economics), a BCL and a MBA from McGill University. From 2008 to 2015, Mr. Littlejohn held the position of CEO and then of advisor to the Chairman and Board Member of the Arab National Investment Company, also known as ANB Invest, in Riyadh, a subsidiary of Arab National Bank. Previously, he was Managing Director of investment banking at Desjardins Securities in Montreal, a position he


took after serving six years as Executive Vice-president at Ecopia Biosciences. Mr. Littlejohn also occupied various senior positions in investment banking at TD Securities, Midland Walwyn, BMO Nesbitt Burns and National Bank Financial.

Gérald A. Lacoste. Mr. Lacoste has more than 30 years of experience in the fields of securities regulation, corporate finance and corporate governance. Mr. Lacoste was president of the audit committee of Amisco Ltd. from 2002 to 2009 and was also a member of the audit committee of Andromed Inc. from 2004 to 2007. Mr. Lacoste was a member of the audit committee of Génome Québec from 2006 to 2009.

Alain Trudeau. Mr. Trudeau holds a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting from HEC Montréal. From 1982 to 2019, Mr. Trudeau has had a distinguished career at Ernst & Young where he held the position of Managing Partner, Assurance Services, for Ernst & Young offices in the Province of Quebec, from 2008 to 2019. During his career, Mr. Trudeau was responsible for the audit of various publicly-traded companies.

Each member of the Audit Committee has acquired in-depth financial expertise giving each the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements which presents the breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to those that can reasonably be expected to be raised in the Registrant’s financial statements.

NASDAQ QUORUM REQUIREMENT

Credit facility:

The Corporation has a CA$1,500,000 credit facility for its ongoing operations, bearing interests at the bank’s Canadian prime rate, plus 1.0%, and a US$1,000,000 revolving credit facility bearing interest at the Bank’s U.S. prime rate plus 1.0%. Under the terms of the credit facility, the bank has a first rank movable hypothec on all of the assets of the Corporation.

As at November 30, 2020 and 2019, the Corporation did not have any borrowings outstanding under this credit facility.

Licence agreement:

On February 4, 2020, the Corporation entered into an amended and restated licence agreement with the Massachusetts General Hospital, or MGH, as amended on April 15, 2020, in order to benefit from its assistance and knowledge for the development of tesamorelin for the potential treatment of NASH in the general population. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the MGH, through Dr Steven Grinspoon, will provide services related to the study design, selection of optimal patient population, dosing, study duration and other safety matters and participate, if need be, in regulatory meetings with the FDA or the European Medicines Agency, or EMA. In consideration, we agreed to make certain milestone payments to the MGH related to the development of tesamorelin and to pay a low single-digit royalty on all sales of EGRIFTA ® and EGRIFTA SV® above a certain threshold amount. The payment of the royalty will begin upon approval by the FDA or the EMA (the first to occur) of an expanded label of tesamorelin for the treatment of any fatty liver disease, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or NASH in the general population.

Post-Approval Commitments:

In connection with the approval of Trogarzo® in Europe, we are required to conduct a paediatric investigation plan, or PIP, and a post-authorisation efficacy study, or Registry. The PIP is comprised of two studies: the first one consists in evaluating the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of Trogarzo® in children from 6 to less than 18 years of age with HIV-1 infection in order to provide pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics data to support the extrapolation of efficacy from adults; and the second study is a modelling and simulation study to evaluate the use of Trogarzo® in the treatment of HIV-1 infection resistant to at least 1 agent in 3 different classes in children from 6 to less than 18 years of age. The Registry consists primarily in evaluating the long-term efficacy and durability of Trogarzo® in combination with other antiretrovirals by comparing the virologic, immunologic and clinical outcomes of patients receiving Trogarzo® treatment versus matched patients not receiving Trogarzo®. The study comprising the Registry should be conducted over a five-year period. The cost of the Registry, estimated to be approximately 4,000,000 Euros, will be borne as to 52% by TaiMed and as to 48% by us.

Milestones:

Reference should be made to Note 12 (Intangible Assets) to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Registrant for the year ended November 30, 2020 for a description of all potential commercial milestones payable by the Registrant.
