D. Forward-Looking Statement and Risk factors.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 20-F and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements. We base these forward-looking statements on our expectations and projections about future events, which we derive from the information currently available to us. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these or similar terms.

In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider the following factors, as well as those described in “Risk Factors” below:

  • changes to existing or new tax laws or methodologies impacting the Company’s international operations, fees directed specifically at the ownership and operation of communications sites or international acquisitions, any of which may be applied or enforced retroactively, or failure to obtain an expected tax status for which the Company has applied;

  • laws or regulations that tax or otherwise restrict repatriation of earnings or other funds or otherwise limit distributions of capital;

  • changes in a specific country’s or region’s political or economic conditions, including inflation or currency devaluation;

  • changes to zoning regulations or construction laws, which could be applied retroactively to existing communications sites;

  • expropriation or governmental regulation restricting foreign ownership or requiring reversion or divestiture;

  • actions restricting or revoking the Company’s customers’ spectrum licenses or suspending or terminating business under prior licenses;

  • failure to comply with anti-bribery laws or similar local anti-bribery laws;

  • material site security issues;

  • significant increase in or implementation of new license surcharges on the Company’s revenue;

  • price setting or other similar laws or regulations for the sharing of passive infrastructure;

  • uncertain or inconsistent laws, regulations, rulings or results from legal or judicial systems, which may be enforced retroactively, and delays in the judicial process; and

  • changes in foreign currency exchange rates, including those arising from the Company’s operations, investments and financing transactions related to its international business.

These and other factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are only predictions. The forward-looking events discussed in this Form 20-F and the documents incorporated by reference herein may not occur, and actual events and results may differ materially and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us. Unless required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Risk Factors

An investment in the Common Shares of the Company must be considered highly speculative due to the nature of the Company’s business. The risk and uncertainties below are not the only risks and uncertainties the Company may have. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial may also impair the business, operations and future prospects of the Company and cause the price of the Common Shares to decline. If any of

2





the following risks actually occur, the business of the Company may be harmed and its financial condition and results of operations may suffer significantly. In addition to the risks described elsewhere and the other information in this Form 20-F, the Company notes the following risk factors:

Company Risks

The Company’s business depends on the demand for wireless communication services and wireless infrastructure, and it may be adversely affected by any slowdown in such demand. Additionally, a reduction in carrier network investment may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business (including reducing demand for new tenant additions or network services).

Demand for the Company’s wireless infrastructure depends on the demand for antenna space from its customers, which, in turn, depends on the demand for wireless communication services by their customers. The willingness of the Company’s customers to utilize its wireless infrastructure, or renew or extend existing leases on its wireless infrastructure, is affected by numerous factors, including:

  • consumer demand for wireless connectivity;

  • availability or capacity of wireless infrastructure or associated land interests;

  • location of wireless infrastructure;

  • financial condition of customers, including their profitability and availability or cost of capital;

  • willingness of customers to maintain or increase their network investment or changes in their capital allocation strategy;

  • availability and cost of spectrum for commercial use;

  • increased use of network sharing, roaming, joint development, or resale agreements by customers;

  • mergers or consolidations among customers;

  • changes in, or success of, customers' business models;

  • governmental regulations, including local or state restrictions on the proliferation of wireless infrastructure;

  • cost of constructing wireless infrastructure;

  • technological changes, including those (1) affecting the number or type of wireless infrastructure needed to provide wireless connectivity to a given geographic area or which may otherwise serve as substitute or alternative to wireless infrastructure or (2) resulting in the obsolescence or decommissioning of certain existing wireless networks; or

  • the ability to efficiently satisfy customers' service requirements.

A slowdown in demand for wireless connectivity or wireless infrastructure may negatively impact the Company’s growth or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company. If the Company’s customers or potential customers are unable to raise adequate capital to fund their business plans, as a result of disruptions in the financial and credit markets or otherwise, they may reduce their spending, which could adversely affect the Company’s anticipated growth or the demand for the Company’s wireless infrastructure or network services. The amount, timing, and mix of the Company’s customers' network investment is variable and can be significantly impacted by the various matters described in these risk factors. Changes in carrier network investment typically impact the demand for its wireless infrastructure. As a result, changes in carrier plans such as delays in the implementation of new systems, new technologies (including small cells), or plans to expand coverage or capacity may reduce demand for its wireless infrastructure. Furthermore, the wireless industry could experience a slowdown or slowing growth rates as a result of numerous factors, including a reduction in consumer demand for wireless connectivity or general economic conditions. There can be no assurances that weakness or uncertainty in the economic environment will not adversely impact the wireless industry, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, including by reducing demand for its wireless infrastructure or network services. In addition, a slowdown may increase competition for site rental customers or network services. A wireless industry slowdown or a reduction in carrier network investment may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business.

New technologies may reduce demand for wireless infrastructure or negatively impact revenues.

Improvements in the efficiency, architecture, and design of wireless networks may reduce the demand for the Company’s wireless infrastructure. For example, new technologies that may promote network sharing, joint development, or resale agreements by its customers, such as signal combining technologies or network functions virtualization, may reduce the need for the Company’s wireless infrastructure. In addition, other technologies, such as WiFi, DAS, femtocells, other small cells, or satellite (such as low earth orbiting) and mesh transmission systems may, in the future, serve as substitutes for, or alternatives to, leasing that might otherwise be anticipated or expected on wireless infrastructure had such technologies not existed. In addition, new technologies that enhance the range, efficiency, and capacity of wireless equipment could reduce demand for the Company’s wireless infrastructure. Any significant reduction in demand for the Company’s wireless infrastructure resulting from the new technologies may negatively impact the Company’s revenues or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the

3





Company.

The expansion or development of the Company’s business, including through acquisitions, increased product offerings or other strategic growth opportunities, may cause disruptions in the Company’s business, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial results.

The Company may seek to expand and develop its business, including through acquisitions, increased product offerings, or other strategic growth opportunities. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may review, analyze, and evaluate various potential transactions or other activities in which it may engage. Such transactions or activities could cause disruptions in, increase risk or otherwise negatively impact its business. Among other things, such transactions and activities may:

  • disrupt the Company’s business relationships with its customers, depending on the nature of or counterparty to such transactions and activities;

  • direct the time or attention of management away from other business operations;

  • fail to achieve revenue or margin targets, operational synergies or other benefits contemplated;

  • increase operational risk or volatility in the Company’s business; or

  • result in current or prospective employees experiencing uncertainty about their future roles with the Company, which might adversely affect the Company’s ability to retain or attract key managers or other employees.

If the Company fails to retain rights to its wireless infrastructure, including the land interests, the Company’s business may be adversely affected. The property interests on which the Company’s wireless infrastructure resides, including the land interests under its towers, consist of leasehold interests. A loss of these interests may interfere with the Company’s ability to conduct its business or generate revenues. For various reasons, the Company may not always have the ability to access, analyze, or verify all information regarding titles or other issues prior to purchasing wireless infrastructure. Further, the Company may not be able to renew ground leases on commercially viable terms. The Company’s ability to retain rights to the land interests on which its towers reside depends on its ability to purchase such land, including fee interests and perpetual easements, or renegotiate or extend the terms of the leases relating to such land. If the Company is unable to retain rights to the property interests on which its wireless infrastructure resides, its business may be adversely affected.

Political, economic and other uncertainties in countries where the Company operates could negatively affect the company’s business

The Company’s business operations are currently located in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina. Although Colombia has a long-standing tradition of respecting the rule of law, which has been bolstered in recent years by the present government’s policies and programs, no assurance can be given that the Company’s plans and operations will not be adversely affected by future developments in Colombia. The Company’s existing assets and proposed activities in Colombia are subject to political, economic and other uncertainties, including the risk of expropriation, nationalization, renegotiation or nullification of existing contracts, licenses and permits or other agreements, changes in laws or taxation policies, currency exchange restrictions, changing political conditions, and international monetary fluctuations. Future government actions concerning the economy, taxation, or the operation and regulation of nationally important facilities such as communications could have a significant effect on the Company. Any changes in regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond the Company’s control and may adversely affect its business. The Company’s business may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on future expansion, price controls, export controls, foreign exchange controls, earnings repatriation, income and/or business taxes or expropriations.

In particular, operating in Colombia. Mexico and Argentina presents the following unique risks to the Company’s business and operations:

Legal System

As civil law jurisdictions, each of Colombia. Mexico and Argentina have legal systems that are different from the common law jurisdictions of Canada and the United States. There can be no assurance that licenses, permits, applications or other legal arrangements will not be adversely affected by changes in governments, the actions of government authorities or others, or the effectiveness and enforcement of such arrangements.

Permits and Licenses

The Company’s business activities in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina are each dependent on receipt of government approvals or permits to develop its business. Any delays in receiving government approvals or permits or no objection certificates may delay the Company’s operations or may affect the status of the Company’s contractual arrangements or its ability to meet its

4





contractual obligations.

Repatriation of Earnings

Currently there are no restrictions on the repatriation from Colombia, Mexico or Argentina (which ended such restrictions in 2017) of capital and distribution of earnings from Colombia, Mexico or Argentina to foreign entities. However, there can be no assurance that restrictions on repatriation of capital or distributions of earnings from Colombia or Argentina will not be imposed in the future.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations

The Company’s current and proposed business operations in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina render it subject to foreign currency fluctuations, which may materially affect its financial position. The Company holds Canadian and U.S. dollars and sends funds to Colombia, Mexico or Argentina in U.S. dollars, which are then converted into Colombian pesos, Mexican pesos or Argentinian pesos, as applicable. The important exchange rates for the Company are those for the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar Colombian peso, Mexican peso and the Argentinian peso. While the Company is funding operations in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina, its results could be impaired by adverse changes in the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar relative to each of the Colombian peso, Mexican peso and Argentinian peso. Prior and future equity financings result in the generation of Canadian dollar proceeds to fund the Company’s activities, which are mostly incurred in U.S. dollars, Colombian pesos, Mexican pesos or Argentinian pesos. To the extent funds from such financings are maintained in Canadian dollars, the Company’s results can be significantly impacted by adverse changes in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar, the U.S. dollar, the Mexican peso, the Argentinian peso and the Colombian peso.

The Company’s operations may also be adversely affected by laws and policies of Canada affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment. In the event of a dispute arising in connection with the Company’s operations in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or tribunals, or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions of the courts of Canada or enforcing Canadian judgments in such other jurisdictions. The Company may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing its rights with respect to a governmental body because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

Security and guerrilla activity in Colombia could negatively impact the Company’s business

Colombia has had a publicized history of security problems associated with certain narcotics crime organizations and other terrorist groups. A 40-year armed conflict between the government forces of Colombia and anti-government insurgent groups and illegal paramilitary groups, both thought to be funded by the drug trade, continues in Colombia. Insurgents continue to attack civilians and violent guerrilla activity continues in many parts of the country.

There have been peace negotiations between the government and the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) guerrillas for many years. A recent settlement has been reached to end the conflict, which is intended to bring further institutional strengthening and development, particularly to rural regions. The government’s biggest challenge is to maintain a lasting peace and that demobilized members of the FARC rejoin civilian life, rather than regrouping in criminal bands.

Continuing attempts to reduce or prevent guerrilla activity may disrupt the Company’s operations in the future. The Company may not be able to establish or maintain the safety of its operations and personnel in Colombia and this violence may affect its operations in the future. Any increase in kidnapping and/or terrorist activity in Colombia generally may disrupt supply chains and discourage qualified individuals from being involved in the Company’s operations. Additionally, the perception that matters have not improved in Colombia may hinder the Company’s ability to access capital in a timely or cost effective manner.

Devaluation of the Argentinian peso may adversely affect our results of operations, our capital expenditure program and the ability to service our liabilities and transfer funds abroad.

Since we generate a significant portion of our revenues in Argentinian pesos through our operations in that country, any devaluation may negatively affect the value of our earnings in that country”

The Argentine Peso has been subject to significant devaluation against the U.S. dollar in the past and may be subject to fluctuations in the future. According to the exchange rate published by the Banco de la Nación Argentina, in the year ended December 31, 2017 the devaluation of the peso against the U.S. dollar was 17.4% (compared to 21.9% and 52.5% in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively). The Argentine Peso lost 57.9% of its value against the U.S. dollar in the first eight months of 2018.

5





Beginning on December 17, 2015, the current administration lifted most of the restrictions to access the foreign exchange markets (“FX Markets”) and the multiple exchange rate system was unified into a floating rate regime. As a result, the value of the peso depreciated significantly against the U.S. dollar.

Given the economic and political conditions in Argentina, we cannot predict whether, and to what extent, the value of the Argentinian peso may depreciate or appreciate against the U.S. dollar, the Canadian dollar or other foreign currencies. We cannot predict whether the Argentine government will further modify its monetary, fiscal, and exchange rate policy. If any of these changes takes place we cannot anticipate the impact these could have on the value of the peso and, accordingly, on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and on our ability to transfer funds abroad in order to comply with commercial or financial obligations or dividend payments to shareholders located abroad.

Inflation could accelerate, causing adverse effects on the economy and negatively impacting our margins.

In the past, Argentina has experienced periods of high inflation. Inflation has increased since 2005 and has remained relatively high since then. There can be no assurance that inflation rates will not be higher in the future.

On January 2014, a new consumer price index, the National Urban Consumer Price Index (Indice de Precios al Consumidor Nacional Urbano, or “IPCNu”) was published with the aim of improving the accuracy of measurements of the evolution of prices in the Argentine economy. The IPCNu integrates a set of price indexes which allows for the monitoring of the change in several prices in the economy (wholesale, commodities and construction costs, among others) by considering the price information from all the provinces in Argentina. The IPCNu increased by 11.9% over the period from January to October 2015 (according to last available data); and by 23.9% in 2014. In the past, there has been a substantial disparity between the inflation indexes published by the INDEC and the higher inflation indexes estimated by private consulting firms. The INDEC estimated that the Argentine wholesale price index increased by 13.1% in 2012, 14.8% in 2013, 28.3% in 2014 and 10.6% in the period of January to October 2015 (according to the last available data because INDEC has not disclosed figures for November and December 2015). The INDEC resumed publication of the wholesale price index for full year since 2016, the Argentine Wholesale Price Index increased by 34.6% in 2016 and 18.8% in 2017, on a year-over-year comparison.

On January 8, 2016, the current administration issued Decree No. 55/2016 declaring a state of administrative emergency with respect to the national statistical system and the INDEC until December 31, 2016 (which was not extended). During this state of emergency, the INDEC had suspended publication of certain statistical data (regarding prices, poverty, unemployment and GDP) until it completed a reorganization of its technical and administrative structure capable of producing sufficient and reliable statistical information. As of the date of this Annual Report, INDEC has resumed publication of mentioned statistical data, although for some indicators it has not disclosed or provided re-estimated figures for certain time periods.

As a consequence of the aforementioned events, the full year 2015 inflation measure for IPCNu index was not disclosed, and according to last available data (from October 2015) the IPCNu registered an increase of 11.9% over the January to October 2015 period. As alternative guidance to IPCNu, the authorities suggested that other measures should be observed, such as those published by the statistical entity of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (IPC CABA) and the San Luis Province that registered an annual increase of 26.9% and 31.6% in 2015, respectively. IPCNu publication was resumed in June 2016 disclosing May 2016 monthly inflation figures, while data for the months in the period January to April 2016 remains unavailable. Taking this into account, IPCNu variation from May to December 2016 was 16.9% and, as alternative guidance, the indexes published by the Province of San Luis and the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires from January to April 2016 represented an increase of 13.9% and 19.2%, respectively. During 2017, the INDEC published monthly IPC index regularly, registering an increase of 24.8% on a year-over-year comparison. The cumulative IPC variation for the first seven months of 2019 was 24.7%

The Argentine government continued implementing several actions to monitor and control prices for the most relevant goods and services. Despite such actions, the Argentine economy continues to experience high levels of inflation. If the value of the peso cannot be stabilized through fiscal and monetary policies, an increase in inflation rates could be expected.

Since a large portion of our revenues are denominated in Argentinian pesos, any further increase in the rate of inflation not accompanied by a parallel increase in our prices would decrease our revenues in real terms and adversely affect our results of operations.

Future policies of the Argentine government may affect the economy as well as the operations of the telecommunications industry in Argentina.

The Argentine government has historically exercised significant influence over the economy, and telecommunications companies in particular have operated in a highly regulated environment. In the past, the Argentine government promulgated

6





numerous, far-reaching regulations affecting the economy and telecommunications companies in particular. In addition, local municipalities in the regions where we operate have also introduced regulations and proposed various taxes and fees for the installation of infrastructure. Provinces have increased their tax rates, particularly the turnover tax rates.

Since assuming office on December 10, 2015, President Macri has announced several economic and policy reforms. As of the date of this report, the impact that these measures and any future measures taken by the current administration will have on the Argentine economy as a whole and the telecommunication sector in particular cannot be predicted. We believe that the effect of the planned liberalization of the economy, the reduction of the poverty and the integration of Argentina to international markets, will be positive for our business by stimulating economic activity. However, it is not possible to predict such effect with certainty and such liberalization could also be disruptive to the economy and fail to benefit or harm the Argentine economy and our business in particular.

We cannot assure you that the Argentine government will not adopt other policies that could adversely affect the Argentine economy or our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, we cannot assure you that future economic, regulatory, social and political developments in Argentina will not impair our business, financial condition or results of operations, or cause the market value of our common shares to decline.

Argentina’s economy may contract in the future due to international and domestic conditions which may adversely affect our operations.

The effects of the global economic and financial crisis in recent years and the general weakness in the global economy may negatively affect emerging economies like Argentina’s. Global financial instability may impact the Argentine economy and cause a slowdown in Argentina’s growth rate or could lead to a recession with consequences in the trade and fiscal balances and in the unemployment level.

Moreover, Argentine economic growth might be negatively affected by several domestic factors such as an appreciation of the real exchange rate which could affect its competitiveness, reductions and even reversion of a positive trade balance, which, combined with capital outflows could reduce the levels of consumption and investment resulting in greater exchange rate pressure. Additionally, abrupt changes in monetary and fiscal policies or foreign exchange regime could rapidly affect local economic output, while lack of appropriate levels of investment in certain economy sectors could reduce long-term growth. Access to the international financial markets could be limited. Consequently, an increase in public spending not correlated with an increase in public revenues could affect the Argentina’s fiscal results and generate uncertainties that might affect the economy’s level of growth.

Moreover, several trading partners of Argentina (such as Brazil, Europe and China) are experiencing significant slowdowns or recession periods in their economies. This may impact the demand for products coming from Argentina and hence affect its economy.

If international and domestic economic conditions for Argentina were to worsen, the Argentine economy could be negatively affected as a result of lower international demand and lower prices for its products and services, higher international interest rates, lower capital inflows and higher risk aversion, which may also adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

A large portion of our operations, properties and customers are located in Argentina, and, as a result, our business is, to a large extent, dependent upon economic and legal conditions prevailing in Argentina. If economic and legal conditions in Argentina were to deteriorate, they could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Economic and legal conditions in Argentina remain uncertain which may affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Although general economic conditions have shown improvement in the last decade, and political protests and social disturbances have diminished considerably since the economic crisis of 2001 and 2002, the nature of the changes in the Argentine political, economic and legal environment over the past several years has given rise to uncertainties about the country’s business environment.

In the event of any economic, social or political crisis, companies operating in Argentina may face the risk of strikes, expropriation, nationalization, forced modification of existing contracts, and changes in taxation policies including tax increases and retroactive tax claims. In addition, Argentine courts have issued rulings changing the existing case law on labor matters and requiring companies to assume greater responsibility for, and assumption of costs and risks associated with, sub-contracted labor and the calculation of salaries, severance payments and social security contributions. Since we operate in a

7





context in which the governing law and applicable regulations change frequently, it is difficult to predict if and how our activities will be affected by such changes.

Social Disruptions and Instability in Colombia could disrupt the Company’s Operations

Generally, companies operating in the telecommunications industry in Colombia have experienced various degrees of interruptions to their operations as a result of social instability. This uncertainty may affect operations in unpredictable ways, including disruptions of access of the Company’s operators to the Company’s towers. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in protecting itself against these risks and the related financial consequences. Further, these risks may not in any part be insurable in the event the Company does suffer damage.

Political Risk, Social Disruptions and Instability in Mexico

The Company does much of its business in Mexico. As such, the Company is subject to certain risks specific to doing business in Mexico, including currency fluctuations and possible political, social or economic instability. Further, the Company’s activities may be affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to the industry in which it operates. Operating in Mexico exposes the Company to various levels of political, economic and other risks and uncertainties which could result in work stoppages, blockades of the Company’s business activities and appropriation of assets. Some of the Company’s assets may be located in areas where Mexican drug cartels operate. These risks and uncertainties vary from region to region and include, but are not limited to, terrorism; hostage taking; local drug gang activities; military repression; expropriation; extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates; high rates of inflation; labor unrest; the risks of war or civil unrest; renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions, licenses, permits and contracts; changes in taxation policies; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; and changing political conditions, currency controls and governmental regulations that favor or require the awarding of contracts to local contractors or require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction. The Company cannot provide assurances that this type of social instability or labor disruption will not be experienced in future. The potential impact of future social instability, labor disruptions and any lack of public order in Mexico, and on the Company’s operations in particular, is not known at this time. This uncertainty may affect operations in unpredictable ways, including disruptions of supplies and markets, ability to move equipment from site to site, or disruption of infrastructure facilities, including public roads, could be targets or experience collateral damage as a result of social instability, labor disputes or protests. The Company may be required to incur significant costs in the future to safeguard the Company’s assets against such activities, incur standby charges on stranded or idled equipment or to remediate potential damage to the Company’s assets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in protecting itself against these risks and the related financial consequences. Further, these risks may not in any part be insurable in the event the Company does suffer damage.

The application of anti-bribery or corruption laws could impact the Company’s operations

The Company’s operations are governed by the laws of many jurisdictions, which generally prohibit bribery and other forms of corruption. It is possible that the Company, or some of its subsidiaries, employees or contractors, could be charged with bribery or corruption as a result of the unauthorized actions of its employees or contractors. If the Company is found guilty of such a violation, which could include a failure to take effective steps to prevent or address corruption by its employees or contractors, the Company could be subject to onerous penalties and reputational damage. A mere investigation itself could lead to significant corporate disruption, high legal costs and forced settlements (such as the imposition of an internal monitor). In addition, bribery allegations and corruption convictions could impair the Company’s ability to work with governments or nongovernmental organizations. Such convictions or allegations could result in the formal exclusion of the Company from a country or area, national or international lawsuits, government sanctions or fines, project suspension or delays, reduced market capitalization and increased investor concern.

If the Company fails to comply with laws or regulations which regulate its business and which may change at any time, the Company may be fined or even lose its right to conduct some of its business.

A variety of laws and regulations apply to the Company’s business, including the laws of Colombia, Mexico and Argentina. Failure to comply with applicable requirements may lead to civil penalties or require the Company to assume indemnification obligations or breach contractual provisions. The Company cannot guarantee that existing or future laws or regulations will not adversely affect its business or result in additional costs. These factors may have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company’s industry is heavily regulated and thus the Company is subject to substantial regulatory risks

The activities of the Company are subject to intense regulation by governmental authorities. Achievement of the Company’s business objectives are contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements enacted by these governmental

8





authorities and obtaining all regulatory approvals. The Company cannot predict the time required to secure all appropriate regulatory approvals for its products, or the extent of testing and documentation that may be required by governmental authorities. Any delays in obtaining, or failure to obtain regulatory approvals could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company. The business of the Company is subject to rapid regulatory changes. Failure to keep up with such changes may adversely affect the business of the Company and have a detrimental impact on the Company’s business.

Changes in current or future laws or regulations could restrict its ability to operate its business as it currently does

The Company’s business and that of its tenants are subject to various laws and regulations. In certain jurisdictions, these regulations could be applied or enforced retroactively, which could require that the Company modify or dismantle existing towers. Since the Company has operating subsidiaries that are incorporated in each of Colombia, Mexico and Argentina it is thus subject to the laws of such jurisdictions. For example, the Colombian Ministry of Communications has a protocol aimed to explain to local authorities and communities the existence of environmental impacts and negative effects on the health of the people. Zoning authorities and community organizations are often opposed to construction of communications sites in their communities, which can delay, prevent or increase the cost of new tower construction, modifications, additions of new antennas to a site or site upgrades, thereby limiting the Company’s ability to respond to tenant demands. The regulations about distance of cell towers to schools, hospitals, and residences, depend on local authorities, as in Colombia the mayors of municipalities have the power to regulate in an autonomous way the matters related to telecommunication infrastructure. Existing regulatory policies may materially and adversely affect the timing or cost of construction projects associated with the Company’s communications sites and new regulations may be adopted that increase delays or result in additional costs to the Company, or that prevent such projects in certain locations, and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. In certain jurisdictions, there may be changes to zoning regulations or construction laws based on site location, which may result in increased costs to modify certain of the Company’s existing towers or decreased revenue due to the removal of certain towers to ensure compliance with such changes. These factors could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

Changes to the tax laws in Colombia, Mexico or Argentina could negatively impact the Company’s business and operations.

The introduction of new tax laws, regulations or rules, or changes to, or differing interpretation of, or application of, existing tax laws, regulations or rules in Colombia, Mexico or Argentina, could result in an increase in the Company’s taxes, or other governmental charges, duties or impositions. No assurance can be given that new tax laws, regulations or rules will not be enacted or that existing tax laws, regulations or rules will not be changed, interpreted or applied in a manner which could result in any of the Company’s profits being subject to additional taxation or which could otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company.

If radio frequency emissions from wireless handsets or equipment on wireless infrastructure are demonstrated to cause negative health effects, potential future claims could adversely affect the Company’s operations, costs or revenues.

The potential connection between radio frequency emissions and certain negative health effects, including some forms of cancer, has been the subject of substantial study by the scientific community in recent years. The Company cannot guarantee that claims relating to radio frequency emissions will not arise in the future or that the results of such studies will not be adverse to the Company. Public perception of possible health risks associated with cellular or other wireless connectivity services may slow or diminish the growth of wireless companies, which may in turn slow or diminish the Company’s growth. In particular, negative public perception and regulations regarding these perceived health risks may slow or diminish the market acceptance of wireless services. If a connection between radio frequency emissions and possible negative health effects were established, the Company’s operations, costs, or revenues may be materially and adversely affected. The Company currently does not maintain any significant insurance with respect to these matters.

The Company may be vulnerable to security breaches that could adversely affect its operations, business, operations, and reputation.

The Company’s wireless infrastructure may be vulnerable to damage, disruptions, or shutdowns due to unauthorized access, computer viruses, cyber-attacks, and other security breaches. An attack attempt or security breach could potentially result in (1) interruption or cessation of certain of the Company’s services to its customers, (2) the Company’s inability to meet expected levels of service, or (3) data transmitted over the Company’s customers' networks being compromised. The Company cannot guarantee that its security measures will not be circumvented, resulting in customer network failures or interruptions that could impact its customers' network availability and have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or operational results. The Company may be required to expend significant resources to protect against or recover from such threats. If an actual or perceived breach of its security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of its security measures could be

9





harmed, and the Company could lose customers. Further, the perpetrators of cyber-attacks are not restricted to particular groups or persons. These attacks may be committed by the Company’s employees, contractors or external actors operating in any geography. Any such events could result in legal claims or penalties, disruption in operations, misappropriation of sensitive data, damage to the Company’s reputation, negative market perception, or costly response measures, which could adversely affect its business.

If the Company is unable to protect its rights to the land under its towers, its business and operating results would be adversely affected.

The Company’s real property interests relating to its towers consist primarily of leasehold and sub-leasehold interests. A loss of these interests at a particular tower site may interfere with the Company’s ability to operate tower sites and generate revenues. For various reasons, the Company may not always have the ability to access, analyze and verify all information regarding titles and other issues prior to completing an acquisition of communications sites, which can affect its rights to access and operate a site. From time to time the Company may also experience disputes with landowners regarding the terms of ground agreements for land under towers, which may affect the Company’s ability to access and operate tower sites. Further, for various reasons, landowners may not want to renew their ground agreements with the Company, they may lose their rights to the land, or they may transfer their land interests to third parties, including ground lease aggregators, which could affect the Company’s ability to renew ground agreements on commercially viable terms. The Company’s inability to protect its rights to the land under its towers may have a material adverse effect on its business and operating results.

The Company could have liability under environmental and occupational safety and health laws.

The Company’s operations are subject to the requirements of environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations, including municipal zoning regulations and height restrictions imposed by the Colombian DAAC-FAN (Colombia’s FAA). Many of these laws and regulations contain information reporting and record keeping requirements. The Company may not be at all times in compliance with all environmental requirements. The Company may be subject to potentially significant fines or penalties if it fails to comply with any of these requirements. The requirements of these laws and regulations are complex, change frequently and could become more stringent in the future. In certain jurisdictions these laws and regulations could be applied or enforced retroactively. It is possible that these requirements will change or that liabilities will arise in the future in a manner that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

The Company’s towers, data centers or computer systems may be affected by natural disasters and other unforeseen events for which the Company’s insurance may not provide adequate coverage.

The Company’s towers are subject to risks associated with natural disasters, such as ice and wind storms, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes and earthquakes, as well as other unforeseen events, such as acts of terrorism. Any damage or destruction to, or inability to access, its towers or data centers may impact its ability to provide services to its tenants and lead to tenant loss, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition.

As part of the Company’s normal business activities, it relies on information technology and other computer resources to carry out important operational, reporting and compliance activities and to maintain its business records. The Company’s computer systems could fail on their own accord and are subject to interruption or damage from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches (including through cyber-attack and data theft), usage errors, catastrophic events such as natural disasters and other events beyond its control. If the Company’s computer systems and its backup systems are compromised, degraded, damaged, or breached, or otherwise cease to function properly, it could suffer interruptions in its operations or unintentionally allow misappropriation of proprietary or confidential information (including information about its tenants or landlords), which could damage the Company’s reputation and require the Company to incur significant costs to remediate or otherwise resolve these issues.

The Company may not have adequate insurance to cover the associated costs of repair or reconstruction for a major future event. Further, the Company may be liable for damage caused by towers that collapse for any number of reasons including structural deficiencies, which could harm the Company’s reputation and require it to incur costs for which it may not have adequate insurance coverage.

The Company’s operations are primarily in jurisdictions outside of Canada or the United States and consequently the Company is subject to the risks of foreign operations generally.

Currently the Company’s operations are conducted in foreign jurisdictions including, but not limited to Colombia, Mexico or Argentina. The Company expects that receivables with respect to foreign sales will continue to account for a significant portion

10





of its total accounts and receivables outstanding. As such, the Company’s operations may be adversely affected by changes in foreign government policies and legislation or social instability and other factors which are not within the control of the Company including, but not limited to, recessions in foreign economies, expropriation, nationalization and limitation or restriction on repatriation of earnings, longer receivables collection periods and greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable, changes in consumer tastes and trends, renegotiation or nullification of existing contracts or licenses, regulatory requirements or the personnel administering them, currency fluctuations and devaluations, exchange controls, economic sanctions and royalty and tax increases, risk of terrorist activities, revolution, border disputes, implementation of tariffs and other trade barriers and protectionist practices, taxation policies, including royalty and tax increases and retroactive tax claims, volatility of financial markets and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, difficulties in the protection of intellectual property, labor disputes and other risks arising out of foreign governmental sovereignty over the areas in which the Company’s operations are conducted. The Company’s operations may also be adversely affected by social, political and economic instability and by laws and policies of such foreign jurisdictions affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment. If the Company’s operations are disrupted and/or the economic integrity of its contracts is threatened for unexpected reasons, its business may be harmed.

In the event of a dispute arising in connection with the Company’s operations in a foreign jurisdiction where the Company conducts its business, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions of the courts of Canada or enforcing Canadian judgments in such other jurisdictions. The Company may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing its rights with respect to a governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. Accordingly, the Company’s activities in foreign jurisdictions could be substantially affected by factors beyond the Company’s control, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Some countries in which the Company may operate may be considered politically and economically unstable and, in some cases, failure to follow certain formalities or obtain relevant evidence may call into question the validity of the entity or the actions taken by the Company. Management of the Company is unable to predict the effect of additional corporate and regulatory formalities which may be adopted in the future including whether any such laws or regulations would materially increase the Company’s cost of doing business or affect its operations in any area.

The Company may in the future enter into agreements and conduct activities outside of the jurisdictions where it currently carries on business, which expansion may present challenges and risks that the Company has not faced in the past, any of which could adversely affect the results of operations and/or financial condition of the Company.

The Company has a limited operating history.

The Company will be subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources, lack of revenue and the risk that it will not achieve its growth objective. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operations will be profitable in the future or will generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy its working capital requirements. Even if the Company does achieve profitability, it cannot predict the level of such profitability. If the Company sustains losses over an extended period of time, it may be unable to continue its business.

A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from our relationship with one tenant.

A substantial portion of our total operating revenues is derived from our leasing agreements with Millicom International Cellular SA. If they are unwilling or unable to perform their obligations under our agreements with them, our revenues, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity would be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, due to the long-term nature of our tenant leases with Millicom International Cellular SA, we depend on the continued financial strength of them. If our current tenant or any future tenants are unable to raise adequate capital to fund their business plans, they may reduce their spending, which could materially and adversely affect demand for our communications sites and our services business. If, as a result of a prolonged economic downturn or otherwise, one or more of our significant tenants experiences financial difficulties or files for bankruptcy, it could result in uncollectible accounts receivable. The loss of our current tenant, or the loss of all or a portion of our anticipated lease revenues from this tenant or future tenants, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The Company is reliant on its management and key personnel.

The success of the Company is dependent upon the ability, expertise, judgment, discretion and good faith of its senior management. While employment agreements are customarily used as a primary method of retaining the services of key employees, these agreements cannot assure the continued services of such employees. The Company attempts to enhance its management and technical expertise by recruiting qualified individuals who possess desired skills and experience in certain

11





targeted areas. The Company’s inability to retain employees and attract and retain sufficient additional employees as well as, engineering, and technical support resources could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operation. Any loss of the services of such individuals could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition.

The Company conducts business in countries with a history of corruption and transactions with foreign governments and doing so increases the risks associated with our international activities.

As we operate internationally, we are subject to the United States’ Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by the United States and other business entities that have securities registered in the United States for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We have operations and agreements with third parties in countries known to experience corruption. Further international expansion may involve more exposure to such practices. Our activities in these countries create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by our employees or consultants that could be in violation of various laws including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, even though these parties are not always subject to our control. It is our policy to implement safeguards to discourage these practices by our employees and consultants. However, our existing safeguards and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective and our employees or consultants may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. Violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 may result in criminal or civil sanctions and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to U.S. proxy rules and are exempt from filing certain reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors, and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not be required under the Exchange Act to file annual and current reports and financial statements with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as frequently or as promptly as domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, and we are generally exempt from filing quarterly reports with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

If we were to loose our foreign private issuer status, we will be required to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We would have to present our financial statements under US GAAP and may also be required to modify certain of our policies to comply with corporate governance practices applicable to U.S. domestic issuers. Such conversion and modifications will involve additional costs. In addition, we may lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on U.S. stock exchanges that are available to foreign private issuers.

If we were a “passive foreign investment company” for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, U.S. Holders of Common Shares could be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

If we were a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held Common Shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences may apply to the U.S. Holder. We do not believe we have been a PFIC and do not expect to be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our current taxable year or the reasonably foreseeable future, although there can be no assurance that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will not challenge our determination in this regard or that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. Our possible status as a PFIC must be determined annually and therefore may be subject to change. This determination will depend on the composition of our income and assets, the market valuation of our assets (including, among others, our goodwill) from time to time, and our spending schedule for cash balances and the proceeds of any offering, as well as on the application of complex statutory and regulatory rules that are subject to potentially varying or changing interpretations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for any taxable year. If we were a PFIC, U.S. Holders of Common Shares may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, such as taxation at the highest ordinary income tax rate on gains recognized from the disposition of Common Shares and on certain actual or deemed distributions with respect to Common Shares, interest charges on certain taxes treated as deferred, and additional reporting requirements.

The Company has never paid dividends and has no intention of paying dividends.

The Company has no earnings or dividend record and does not anticipate paying any dividends on the common shares in the

12





foreseeable future. Dividends paid by the Company would be subject to tax and, potentially, withholdings. The payment of future cash dividends, if any, will be reviewed periodically by the Company’s board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, conditions then existing including earnings, financial condition and capital requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, business opportunities and conditions and other factors.

The Company is subject to a going-concern risk.

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of equity or debt financing and the achievement of profitable operations at an indeterminate time in the future. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing an equity or debt financing or in achieving profitability. The financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

13





On March 30, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Offer Agreement with the shareholders of Evolution Technology SA ("Evotech") to acquire 65% ownership interest in Evotech. Evotech is a private company incorporated under the laws of Argentina. Since its incorporation on March 10, 2016, Evotech has obtained various permits for constructing cellular towers and also has a master lease agreement with a major telecom carrier in Argentina. To obtain the 65% ownership interest in Evotech, the Company paid US$350,000 to the original shareholders of Evotech and transferred US$400,000 to Evotech for operating expenses. The Company also issued 1,500,000 common shares with a fair value of $480,000 to the shareholders of Evotech. In addition, the Company is committed to contribute the funds necessary for Evotech to construct 50 towers, or a lower number of towers to be agreed between the parties, for up to a total maximum amount of US$3,500,000.

Each Unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock ( a “Common Share”) and one transferable Common Share purchase warrant ( a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder to purchase, for a period of 12 months from the date of issue, one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.40per Common Share. The Warrants also have an acceleration clause whereby if the closing price of the Common Shares is greater than $0.60per Common Share for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days, the Company will have the right to accelerate the expiry of the Warrants by giving notice to the holders of the Warrants by news release or other form of notice permitted by the certificate representing the Warrants that the Warrants will expire at 4:30 p.m. (Vancouver time) on a date that is not less than ten (10) days from the date notice is given. As compensation for raising proceeds under the Private Placement, eligible finders and brokers received cash commission of 8% of the gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement and compensation Warrants (the “Financing Warrants”) entitling the finder or broker to purchase Common Shares up to 8% of the number of Placement Units sold in the Private Placement, exercisable at a price of $0.40 per Common Share for a period of 12 months from the date of issuance of the Financing Warrants, subject to an acceleration provision.

Warrant Incentive Programs

After the completion of the Private Placement, the Company instituted an incentive program, whereby holders of Warrants were granted incentive warrants (the “Incentive Warrants”) that were exercisable at $0.50 per share within 12 months of issuance if they exercised their Warrants from June 21, 2017 to July 21, 2017. As a result of this incentive program, 3,774,466 Warrants were exercised with total proceeds of $1,132,340 and 3,774,466 Incentive Warrants were issued.

The Company instituted a second incentive program that provided for the following: (i) that the expiration date of the Warrants was extended to March 30, 2018, (ii) the exercise price of the Warrants and the Incentive Warrants was reduced to $0.25 per share, and (iii) additional warrants with an exercise price of $0.40 per share were issued to current holders of Warrants and Incentive Warrants in consideration for such Warrants or Incentive Warrants to be exercised prior to March 30,2018. The deadline for this incentive program was extended to April 6, 2018, and on such date a total of 8,665,201 Warrants and Incentive Warrants were exercised to acquire 8,665,201 Common Shares at a price of $0.25, which resulted in $2,166,300 in gross proceeds for the Company.

The Company intends to utilize these funds to continue to build wireless cellular towers, predominately in Argentina as well as for general corporate purposes.

B. Business Overview

The Company is a pure-play, Build-to-Suit (“BTS”) tower owner, operator and developer of multitenant communications real estate. The Company’s primary business is the leasing of space on communications sites to mobile network operators (“MNOs”) in countries it services with lease terms of over 10 years. Each tower is built with an initial anchor tenant commitment and space for an additional 1-3 tenants, or collocations. The Company does not build any towers without an anchor tenant in place.The Company offers tower-related services in the largest Spanish speaking countries in Latin America: Argentina, Colombia and Mexico. These tower-related services include site acquisition, zoning and permitting, structural analysis, and construction which primarily supports the Company’s site leasing business, including the addition of new tenants and equipment on its sites. BTS is a process where a long-term lease is secured with a tenant prior to the construction of a tower. Terms are outlined in master lease agreements (“MLAs”) with tenants. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had a total of 7 signed MLA agreements with major MNOs in Argentina, Colombia and Mexico and a total backlog of over 300 sites. In Argentina, the Company has executed MLAs with Claro Argentina, Telecom Argentina SA, and DirecTV. In Colombia, the Company had executed MLAs with Claro Colombia, Telefónica. In Mexico, the Company had executed MLAs with Altan Redes and AT&T Mexico.

The Telecommunications Tower Industry

The telecommunications tower industry leases different structure types (monopole, self-supporting, guyed, and rooftop) to MNOs to create a cell site. A cell site is an area within an MNO’s wireless network which is serviced by an antenna array. The Company can host multiple MNO tenants on a single tower with marginal incremental cost. Each additional tenant is referred to as a “collocation”.

The process of building a tower for an MNO starts with the MNO issuing “search rings” to the tower company. A search ring represents a radius around a specific global positioning system or “GPS” coordinate and a height requirement for the MNO. A cell site within this search ring is critical for the MNO to provide quality cellular coverage to its customers. Mostly due to the critical nature of the cell site’s location, little migration occurs among MNOs once a cell site is in place. After issuing a search ring, the Company looks for places to construct a tower. This process is called “site acquisition” and takes anywhere from 1 to 90 days. Following completion of the site acquisition process, or in many cases concurrently with completion, the Company seeks permitting from local authorities as well as the Aeronautica Civil (Colombia), ANAC (Argentina) or Directorate General of Civil Aviation (Mexico). The final step is construction of the tower, which typically takes less than 30 days. From start to finish, on average an individual MNO tower site takes approximately 180 days to be placed in service.

The process of site acquisition, permitting and construction are also outsourced to specialized third party companies that focus on these services. The Company has internal groups, including legal, site acquisition, engineering and construction supervision that supervise these areas and manage the time, quality and service received.

Terms of the tenant lease are set forth in an MLA between the Company and tenant which include length of contract, rent by

17





structure type, colocation rates and annual price increases to adjust for local inflation.

The Company’s Tower Portfolio

Through its subsidiaries, the Company currently has 100 constructed towers, with 48 located in Argentina and 18 located in Colombia and 34 located in Mexico. A total of 24 of the Company’s 100 constructed towers have a second tenant collocating, representing 1.24 tenants per in-service tower. Further, there are 24 towers currently under construction, 16 of which are in Argentina and 8 of which are in Colombia.

See below for a summary of the Company’s tower portfolio:

  Constructed     Towers Under
Country Towers Collocations Tenants Construction
Argentina 48 20 68 16
Colombia 18 4 22 8
Mexico 34 - 34 0
Total 100 24 124 24

The above summary reflects the Company’s sale of 22 towers in Colombia to a third party for $2,516,354 (USD).

Products and Services

The Company’s revenue is primarily derived from tenant leases on the towers it owns and operates in Argentina, Colombia and Mexico. The lease terms of each structure type are outlined in the MLAs, and these agreements include information about lease amounts by structure type, annual increases and adjustments for local inflation, collocation terms, and minimum infrastructure design requirements. The lease payment amount depends on a number of factors including tower location, height and amount of equipment on the tower. Expenses at the tower site include insurance and maintenance expenses, and in certain cases, property taxes. Ground rent and power and fuel costs are passed through to the Company’s tenants. In the tower industry, tower level cash flow (“TCF”) is defined as leasing revenue from the tenants less the expenses at the tower site.

The Company’s operations are concentrated in Colombia, Argentina and Mexico. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded total of revenues of $161,826, $240,622, $nil, and $904,714 in Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and the United States respectively, while the Company recorded total assets of $422,830, $6,953,232, $1,445,472 and $296 742, in Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and the United States respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded total of revenues of $118,700, $65,061, $nil, and $16,737 in Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and the United States respectively, while the Company recorded total assets of $464,459, $2,637,063, $nil and $5,375, in Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and the United States respectively.

The Telecommunications Market in Latin America

General

Despite considerable progress in building out mobile broadband networks in Latin America over recent years (there are estimated to be over 160,000 towers in Latin America), approximately 10% of the population, or approximately 64 million people, still have no access to a mobile broadband network in the region. Latin America is characterized by densely populated and sprawling cities, but also by vast, sparsely populated areas, mountain ranges, rainforests and islands. Although most people live in urban or suburban areas, it is the small proportion of people living in rural areas (20% of the population) that are most likely to currently be without access to mobile broadband.

Although the business model utilized by mobile network operators has so far proven effective in expanding coverage to current levels, the Company believes that moving further into remote areas through traditional network deployment is a much greater challenge, owing to the sparsely populated unconnected areas, the difficult economic situation in many Latin American countries, the high cost of investment with limited potential for return, and a challenging market environment that often makes coverage expansion uneconomical. As a result, mobile network operators are increasingly adopting alternative methods, notably infrastructure sharing and partnerships with other ecosystem players, to complement traditional network deployments. In addition, they want to focus on their core business by deploying more cell sites and spending money on sales and marketing.

18





The Company believes that governments in the region want to make access to and use of mobile broadband universal, a goal shared by mobile network operators. The Company expects this will require a multidimensional approach and collaboration between governments and the mobile industry, with the former supporting industry-led initiatives with policies and programs that create the right incentives and an enabling environment for extending connectivity to underserved areas. The Company also believes that in many cases mobile network operators’ efforts to improve coverage are hampered by inefficient and arduous regulation from governments and policymakers, including onerous coverage obligations, strict quality-of-service (“QoS”) expectations, and restrictive planning laws around new infrastructure deployment which, together, make for a challenging regulatory environment. In many markets, this continues to be less of the case and as these markets mature they adopt many programs such as strict timelines for licensing and the utilization of government properties to enhance deployment speeds.

Additionally, of the 90% of the population of Latin America who have access to mobile broadband services, just over 160 million people, or approximately a quarter of the population, subscribed to such services. This means that three-quarters of the population do not currently subscribe to mobile broadband services, primarily due to affordability and/or consumer challenges.

Mobile network operators in Latin America face a tough balancing act in allocating capital across multiple divergent needs: investing in network expansion projects to meet coverage obligations, or boosting network capacity in existing service areas to address QoS expectations (most countries in Latin America have more than 3,500 users (subscribers) per cell site, compared to around 1,000 or fewer in the US and other developed markets). The Company believes that this puts an additional burden on mobile network operators and inadvertently weakens the business case for investment in coverage expansion. The Company believes that tower companies – like the Company – have a role to play in creating and sustaining an enabling environment for effective investment in infrastructure deployment for carriers and operators.

The Company’s infrastructure sharing is intended to enable mobile network operators to deploy networks more efficiently, optimize asset utilization and reduce operating costs compared with standalone deployment by the mobile network operator. It is also designed to minimize duplication of infrastructure, which has come under the spotlight in many countries due to growing environmental and public safety concerns.

The Focus Markets: Argentina, Colombia and Mexico

The Company operates in the three largest Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America: Argentina, Colombia and Mexico. The Company’s focus markets have an estimated total population of approximately 220 million people.

Source: The World Factbook

The Company estimates there are currently over 60,000 tower sites in these markets with over 3,500 subscribers per tower. This figure differs substantially from the U.S. average of approximately 1,200 subscribers per cell site, which the Company

19





believes points to the need for more towers in the region. Furthermore, the Company believes a key driver for further cell site growth in these markets is the substantial increase in mobile data consumption per user. Mobile data consumption per user in Latin America was 0.9 GB per month in 2016 and is projected to grow roughly 6 times that to 5.4 GB per month by 2021 per the GSMA Association (“GMSA”).

The Argentine Market

Argentina has a population of 44 million and GDP per capita of approximately $26,910. There are an estimated 16,150 towers in Argentina as of October 2018 with approximately 3,777 subscribers per cell site, according to TowerXchange. The Company believes over 1,400 towers annually are needed in Argentina to meet demand and we believe that MNOs are planning to spend approximately $12 billion from 2016 through 2020 on capital expenditures, per GSMA. Major MNOs include Claro Argentina, Telecom Argentina SA and Telefonica. Claro and Telecom make up over 65% of the market and are tenants of the Company. The Company believes further demand drivers of future cell sites include Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones or “ENACOM’s recent spectrum auction and newly published guidelines to encourage telecom competition, Telecom’s commitment to invest $6.8 billion in Argentina by 2020, and the election of Mauricio Macri as the President of Argentina in 2015.

The Company believes that Argentina market has many positive characteristics with regard to its potential for tower companies – with three sizeable, competitive mobile operators vying for market share, high penetration yet potential for subscriber growth, and a burgeoning 4G mobile market. Significant tower infrastructure will be required to meet coverage targets and to cater to mobile data growth in large population centers. The latest political and economic events are still being assessed to understand the effects on the mobile operators tower construction growth.

The Colombian Market

Colombia has a population of 48 million and GDP per capita of approximately $18,850. There are 15,553 towers in Colombia as of October 2018 with approximately 3,626 subscribers per cell site, according to TowerXchange. The Company beleives over 1,400 towers annually are needed in Colombia to meet demand and we believe that MNOs are planning to spend approximately $8 billion from 2016 through 2020 on capital expenditures, per GSMA. Major MNOs include Avantel, Claro Colombia, Telefonica and Tigo. The Company works with the four major carriers in Colombia and has MLAs with Telefonica, Claro, and Avantel. The Company has seven towers with Tigo, and is working on getting an MLA in place. The Company believes further demand drivers of future cell sites include a pro-infrastructure political climate, carrier LTE deployments and a planned network investment of over $300 million by Tigo.

The Mexican Market

Mexico has a population of 125 million and GDP per capita of $25,350. There are 30,349 towers in Mexico as of October 2018 with approximately 3,535 subscribers per cell site, according to TowerXchange. Management projects over 4,900 towers annually are needed in Mexico to meet demand and we believe that MNOs are planning to spend approximately C$14 billion from 2016 through 2020 on capital expenditures, per GSMA. Major MNOs include Altan Redes, AT&T Mexico, TelCel and Telefonica. Altan, AT&T and Telefonica make up over 30% of the market and are customers of the Company. The Company believes further demand drivers of future cell sites include a recent high-profile spectrum auction, a countrywide wholesale wireless broadband initiative by Altan and increased mobile data consumption.

Competition

The Company operates in a very competitive industry. Competitors vary in size from small private organizations to large publicly-traded companies. The Company believes that price, network density, speed of service, access to capital, quality and

20





site acquisition strategies are the primary competitive factors affecting companies in its industry.

In Colombia, there are less than 12 tower companies; Argentina, less than eight tower companies; and Mexico, less than 18 tower companies. The Company believes there is ample room for its business to serve clients in these countries.

D. Property, plant and equipment.

The Company has 100 towers built as of the date of this report, and another 24 under construction. In Argentina, the Company has 48 constructed towers with 20 collocations and 16 under construction. In Colombia, the Company has 18 constructed towers with 4 collocations and 8 under construction. In Mexico, the Company has 34 constructed towers.

The Company’s interests in its towers are comprised of a variety of ownership interests, including leases created by long-term ground lease agreements, easements, licenses or rights-of-way granted by government entities. A typical tower site consists of a compound enclosing the tower site, a tower structure and one or more equipment shelters that house a variety of transmitting, receiving and switching equipment. In addition, the Company’s sites typically include backup or auxiliary power generators and batteries.

The principal structure types of the Company’s towers are monopole towers, self-supported towers and rooftops. A monopole tower is a tubular structure that is used primarily to address space constraints or aesthetic concerns. Monopole towers typically have heights ranging from 100 to 200 feet. A monopole tower site used in metropolitan areas for a typical communications tower site can consist of a plot of land of fewer than 1,000 square feet. A self-supported tower (“SST”) is a stem-pattern tower which is compiled and connected to form a self-supporting frame without any other subvention. SST towers have a conventional form of tower frame which is designed to withstand wind pressure and the geographic condition at the tower’s location. The height of the SST can be anywhere between 100 to 400 feet. A rooftop lease usually requires only a fraction of the space, as a mobile network operator may require as little as 50 square feet for each cell site installation.

Our head office is located at 600-535 Howe Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 2Z4 Canada. We currently lease this office location.

The Company’s net comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2018, totaled $9,167,839 or $0.10 per Common Share compared to net comprehensive loss of $9,881,797 or $0.16 per Common Share for the year ended December 31, 2017 and a net comprehensive loss of $301,183 or $29.20 per Common Share for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in net comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the prior year was primarily the result of increased revenues and decreased other expenses being partially offset by increased operating related expenses, mostly in connection with the growth of the Company’s operations in 2018 compared to the prior year. The increase in net comprehensive loss in 2017 from 2016 was primarily the result of the Company’s increased operational activities in 2017 compared to the prior year mostly due to the completion of the Tower Three Transaction in January 2017.

Revenues

2018 compared to 2017

Total revenue increased to $1,556,742 for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to $200,498 as of December 31, 2017, primarily as a result of BTS towers coming into service during the 2018. The Company expects to generate revenues in 2019 mostly from monthly lease payments by MNOs on existing and future tower sites.

2017 compared to 2016

The Company has generated revenues of $200,498 in 2017 primarily from fees received through lease agreements involving the Company’s cellular towers compared to $19,403 in total revenue generated in the prior year.

Expenses

2018 compared to 2017

Professional fees increased to $1,834,575 during the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to $1,710,312 in the previous year primarily due to an increase in third party consulting services mostly related to increased corporate and operational activities of the Company in 2018 compared to 2017. Professional fees include consulting services, legal fees and related expenses. Office and miscellaneous expenses increased to $675,553 in the 2018 compared to $128,184 for the year ended December 31, 2017 mainly due to increased operational activities in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina. Advertising and promotion expenses increased to $1,403,269 in 2018 compared to $1,199,150 in 2017 mainly due to increased marketing and promotional efforts in 2018 compared to the prior year. Travel expenses decreased to $201,888 in 2018 compared to $333,666 in 2017 mostly as a result of less travel throughout Colombia, Mexico and Argentina to find out optimal locations for cellphone towers in 2018. Transfer agent fees increased to $44,983 during 2018 compared to compared to $Nill in 2017 mainly due to exercise of options and warrants in 2018. The Company incurred $1,080,743 in interest, financing charges and bank charges during 2018 compared to $380,864 in the prior year mostly due to interest and penalties for the previous and existing loans, bank fees and transfer charges in Colombia, Mexico and Argentina. Maintenance and operation expenses increased to $1,517,698 in 2018 from $301,915 in 2017 mainly due to the Company incurring increased operating costs in connection with the generation of increased revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $480,132 in unrealized foreign exchange loss to its cumulative translation account. The Company’s functional currency reporting is the Canadian Dollar, while Tower Three reports in the Colombian Peso, Evotech reports in the Argentina Peso, and Comercializadora Mexmaken reports in the Mexican Peso. The Company records a cumulative translation adjustment due to the changes resulting from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates.

2017 compared to 2016

During the year ended December 31, 2017, total expenses for the Company were $7,842,058 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2016 where total expenses were $311,407. The increased expenses in 2017 compared to the prior year was mainly due to professional fees of $1,710,312, travel expenses of $333,366 (compared to $29,631 in 2016, office and miscellaneous expenses of $128,184 (compared to $60,113 in 2016), share based compensation of $3,693,799 ($nil in 2016) and advertising and promotion expense of $1,199,150($Nil in 2016). Expenses incurred from share based payments in 2017 primarily resulted from the issuance stock options to consultants during the year, while the increase in professional fees in 2017 compared to the prior year was mainly the result of increased, financial, accounting and legal fees incurred by the Company in connection with the Tower Three Transaction, and the other acquisitions and dispositions made by the Company during 2017. The increase in office and miscellaneous expenses, advertising and promotional expenses and travel expenses in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily the result of the commencement of operational activities in Colombia and Argentina in 2017. Specifically, the further development of our cellular tower business after the Tower Three Transaction increased: (i) office related costs mostly due to the hiring of new employees and the acquisition of additional offices to accommodate the growth of our operations in Colombia and Argentina, (ii) marketing and promotional efforts in Latin America, the United States and Canada

24





to promote our business and create increased awareness of our Company in these markets, and (iii) travel to Colombia and Argentina to scope out optimal locations for cellular towers. The Company also incurred $380,864 in interest and bank charges in 2017, mostly due to interest fees for the previous and existing loans, bank fees and transfer charges in Colombia and Argentina.

Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no interest income for the period ended December 31, 2018 and years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Impact of Inflation

In May 2018, the Argentinean Peso underwent a severe devaluation resulting in Argentina’s three-year cumulative inflation exceeding 100% in 2018, and consequently for the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company determined that Argentina was in a state of hyperinflation. The Company’s subsidiary, Evotech, operates in Argentina and the functional currency of Evotech is the Argentinian Peso.

Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our revenues or income over the past two fiscal years, the hyperinflationary situation in Argentina helped contribute to a foreign exchange translation loss of 480,132 in 2018 and further increases in inflation in Argentina or the other markets in which we operate could result in increases in our expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the price of goods or services provided to our clients. To the extent that inflation results in rising interest rates and has other adverse effects on capital markets, it could adversely affect our financial position and profitability.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations

The Company generates revenues and incurs expenses and capital expenditures primarily in Colombia, Argentina and Mexico and is exposed to the resulting risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Some administrative and head office related expenses are incurred in Canada and the United States. In addition, the Company holds financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies that expose the Company to foreign exchange risks. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to the Colombia Peso, the Mexico Peso or the Argentina Peso could have an effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position and/or cash flows.

The Company recorded $480,132 in losses related to foreign exchange translation adjustments in 2018 compared to a loss of $18,120 in 2017 and a loss of $9,179 in 2016. The increased foreign exchange translation loss in 2018 was primarily the result of the hyperinflationary situation in Argentina. The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar, while Tower Three conducts business in Colombia with the Colombian Peso and Evotech conducts business in Argentina with the Argentinian Peso and Comercializadora Mexmaken conducts business in Mexico with the Mexican Peso. At December 31, 2018, Tower Three, had cash of $14,752, amount receivable of $37,017 and accounts payable of $236,385, all of which were originally denominated in Colombia Peso. Evotech had cash of $38,481, accounts receivable of $36,143 and accounts payable of $1,330,347, all of which were originally denominated in Argentina Pesos. Comercializadora Mexmaken had cash of $73,962, accounts receivable of $275,429 and accounts payable of $944,405, all of which were originally denominated in Mexican Pesos. Despite the increase in foreign exchange translation losses in 2018, foreign currency fluctuations have not previously had a material impact on the Company’s financial results. Consequently, the Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates and therefore does not hedge its exposure to currency fluctuations. It is the opinion of management that the foreign exchange risk to which the Company is exposed is currently not material. However, the Company anticipates that the fluctuations of the Colombian Mexican and Argentinian Pesos may impact the Company’s financial results moving forward. The Company intends to monitor such potential impact and will possibly develop a hedging policy if such fluctuations become material.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company’s accounting policies are presented in Note 7 of the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requires management to select accounting policies and make estimates. Such estimates may have a significant impact on the financial statements. Actual amounts could differ materially from the estimates used and, accordingly, affect the results of the operations. These include:

  • the assumptions used for the valuation of listing expense;

  • the assumptions used for the determination of the impairment of intangible assets;

25





  • the assumptions used for the determination of the useful life of equipment;

  • the assumptions used for the determination of the useful life of intangible assets; and

  • the assumptions used for the determination of the value share based payments and compensation.

Regulation

Colombia

Our tower leasing business in Colombia is subject to Colombian national, state and local regulatory requirements with respect to the construction, registration, marking and maintenance of our towers. Colombia is divided into 32 departments and one capital district, which is treated as a department (Bogotá also serves as the capital of the department of Cundinamarca). Departments are subdivided into municipalities, each of which is assigned a municipal seat, and municipalities are in turn subdivided into corregimientos in rural areas and into comunas in urban areas. Each department has a local government with a governor and assembly directly elected to four-year terms, and each municipality is headed by a mayor and council. There is a popularly elected local administrative board in each of the corregimientos or comunas. In addition to the capital four other cities have been designated districts (in effect special municipalities), on the basis of special distinguishing features. These are Barranquilla, Cartagena, Santa Marta and Buenaventura. Some departments have local administrative subdivisions, where towns have a large concentration of population and municipalities are near each other (for example in Antioquia and Cundinamarca). Where departments have a low population (for example Amazonas, Vaupés and Vichada), special administrative divisions are employed, such as “department corregimientos”, which are a hybrid of a municipality and a corregimiento. The majority of existing infrastructure in remote areas, including buildings, open spaces such as parks and squares, legacy fixed-line telecoms infrastructure and public utilities, is owned by governments and public institutions.

For infrastructure deployment and antenna siting, mobile operators and tower companies need to obtain local approvals from municipalities for each antenna or tower site. The absence of a clear national policy can lead to each municipality adopting its own policy and procedures that are sometimes in conflict with the technical requirements of deploying mobile networks.

Argentina

Following the election of President Mauricio Macri in 2015, the Argentine government issued a Decree of Necessity and Urgency (Decreto de Necesidad y Urgencia) to create a new communications ministry and regulator to oversee the telecommunications and media sectors. The National Communications Agency (Ente Nacional de Comunicaciones, or “Enacom”) is now the main telecommunications regulatory authority in Argentina and became operational in 2016. The Company’s operations in Argentina are regulated by Enacom, which in early 2018, established new testing standards for cellular towers in Argentina. In accordance with this new Enacom policy, all now must be tested in Argentina under these new Enacom standards in order to obtain a certificate of homologation.

All telecommunications providers in Argentina must contribute approximately 1.0% of their monthly revenues to finance the provision of telecommunications services in underserved areas and to underserved persons. All providers must also meet certain quality-of-service requirements.

Mexico

On 11 June 2013, through a constitutional reform, a new telecommunication and broadcasting legal framework was put in place in Mexico. This reform created the Federal Telecommunications Institute (the “Insititute”) as an autonomous public agency, independent in its decisions and function, with its own legal status and resources, for the purpose of regulating and promoting competition and efficient development of the telecommunications and broadcasting sectors in Mexico. The Institute is responsible for the regulation, promotion and supervision of the use, enjoyment and exploitation of the radio spectrum, orbital resources, satellite services, public telecommunication networks, and broadcasting and telecommunications services, and has the authority to regulate access to active and passive infrastructure, as well as to other essential resources related to such industries.

The Institute, which superseded the previous Mexican Federal Telecommunications Commission, is the authority in terms of antitrust matters in the Mexican broadcasting and telecommunications sectors, and it exercise the powers set forth in the Mexican Constitution, the Mexican Federal Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law and the Mexican Federal Competition Law.

The Mexican Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT) awarded a tender for the national shared wholesale network known as “Red Compartida” in November 2016. Construction of the Red Compartida was mandated to address the objectives of providing near-universal broadband coverage and increasing access to services in regions neglected by commercial carriers. The Red Compartida was intended to be a wholesale-only carrier, deploying infrastructure throughout the country and selling wholesale services to retail commercial carriers and Mexican government agencies. Two consortia bid on the Red Compartida, and the project was awarded to Grupo Altan, which met its deadline of providing 30 percent coverage by March 2018. The rollout of the network will continue until 92 percent coverage is provided.

Future Liquidity

As a result of the Tower three Transaction, the Company now expects to generate revenues from its operations, while also incurring additional costs in connection with its tower development business.

At December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $18,789,710, which is funded primarily by the raising of equity funding and loans. Consequently, the Company’s ongoing operations are dependent on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient revenues in the future, receive continued financial support and complete equity financings. The Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from its operations in the foreseeable future to support its working capital needs and may have to rely on funding through future equity issuances and short term borrowings to finance ongoing operations and the construction of cellular towers. Based upon the current level of our operations and our current expectations for future periods in light of the current economic environment, we believe that cash flow from our operations and available cash, will not be adequate to finance the capital requirements for our business during the next 12 months without additional funding through future equity issuances and short term borrowings, which will depend on market conditions. Additionally, in the future we may make acquisitions of businesses or assets or commitments to additional capital projects. To achieve the long-term goals of expanding our assets and earnings, including through acquisitions, additional capital resources will be required. Depending on the size of a transaction, the capital resources that will be required can be substantial. The necessary resources will be generated from cash flow from operations, cash on hand, borrowing against our assets or the issuance of securities.

In order to finance the Company’s future operations and to cover administrative and overhead expenses the Company may raise money through equity sales. Many factors influence the Company’s ability to raise funds, including the Company’s track record, and the experience and caliber of its management. Actual funding requirements may vary from those planned due to a number of factors. Management believes it will be able to raise equity capital as required in the long term, but recognizes there will be risks involved that may be beyond their control. Should those risks fully materialize, it may not be able to raise adequate funds to continue its operations.

C. Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.

Research and development activities are not material to the Company’s business or operations and consequently, the Company had no research and development policies during of the last three years

D. Trend Information

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Form 20-F, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our revenues, income, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that caused the disclosed financial information to be not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial conditions.

Stock Option Plan

2016 Stock Option Plan

The Board adopted a stock option plan (the “Option Plan”), which was approved by shareholders on May 20, 2016 at the Company’s Annual General Meeting. The purpose of the Option Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate executive officers, directors and employees whose present and future contributions are important to the Company. The maximum number of the Company’s shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to stock options granted under the Option Plan will, at any time, be 10% of the number of the Company’s shares of common stock then outstanding. The number of the Company’s shares of common stock that may be issued to any one person shall not exceed 5% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a non-diluted basis. The price at which the Company’s shares may be issued under the stock option plan will be determined from time to time by the Board in compliance with the rules and policies of any stock exchange upon which the Company’s shares of common stock are listed. The vesting of options granted under the Option Plan will be determined by the Board at the time of the grant. Options granted under the Option Plan may be exercisable over a maximum period of five years. They will generally have a term of 5 years and vest over four years, 25% on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant, provided the optionee is in continuous service to the Company. The Board may amend the terms of the Option Plan from time to time, to the extent permitted by the Option Plan and any rules and policies of any stock exchange on which the Company’s shares of common stock are listed, or terminate it at any time. If the Company accepts any offer to amalgamate, merge or consolidate with any other company (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary) or if holders of greater than 50% of the Company’s shares of commons stock accept an offer made to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s shares of common stock to purchase in excess of 50% of our current issued and outstanding shares of commons stock, any then-unvested options will automatically vest in full.

During the 2018 Annual General Meeting of the Company’s shareholders held on February 5, 2019, the Company’s shareholders ratified and renewed the Option Plan pursuant to the rules of the CSE (the “2018 Option Plan”). Under the 2018 Option Plan, the total number of Common Shares that may be reserved for issuance will be 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares at the time of grant, less any common shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the grant of stock options under any other share compensation arrangements. Additionally, the 2018 Option Plan provides for the following:

  • The options granted under the 2018 Stock Option Plan are non-assignable and non-transferable (except that the optionee’s heirs or administrators can exercise any portion of the outstanding option, up to 180 days from the optionee’s death);

  • that the 2018 Option Plan, together with all other previously established or proposed share compensation arrangements may not, during any 12 month period, result in:

    • the number of options granted to any one person exceeding 5% of the issued shares of the Company; or

    • the number of options granted to any one consultant exceeding 2% of the issued shares of the Company.

33





  • The exercise price of an option may not be set at less than the greater of the closing market price of the Common Shares on (a) the trading day immediately prior to the date of grant of the options; and (b) the date of grant of the options as permitted by the rules of the Canadian Securities Exchange;

  • The options may be exercisable for a period of up to 5 years (subject to extension where the expiry date falls within a “blackout period”); and

  • Any options granted to any optionee who is a director, employee, consultant or management company employee must expire within 90 days following the date the optionee ceases to be in that role.

Corporate Governance

Composition of the Board

In order to attempt to facilitate its exercise of independent supervision over management, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has established a goal that the Board be composed of a majority of independent directors. However, because of the Company’s size and limited operating history the Board has not been able to recruit enough candidates for the Board in order to meet this goal. Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A “material relationship” is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment. In establishing the standard for what qualifies as an independent director, the Board has adopted the independence standard outlined in National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, which is applicable to Canadian public companies. The Board currently has four directors, of which Mr. Gusko is considered to be independent for the purposes of NI 58-101.

The mandate of the Board is to act in the best interests of the Company and to supervise management. The Board is responsible for approving long-term strategic plans and annual operating budgets recommended by management. Board consideration and approval is also required for material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions. Any responsibility which is not delegated to management or to the committees of the Board remains with the Board. The Board meets on a regular basis consistent with the state of the Company’s affairs and also from time to time as deemed necessary to enable it to fulfill its responsibilities.

The Chairman of the Board is Brian Gusko, who is an independent director.

Duties of Directors

Under British Columbia law, our directors have a duty of loyalty to act honestly in good faith with a view to our best interest. Our directors also have a duty to exercise the care, diligence and skills that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with the Company’s articles. A shareholder has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by our directors is breached.

The functions and powers of our Board include, among others:

  • convening shareholders’ annual general meetings and reporting its work to shareholders at such meetings;

  • issuing authorized but unissued Common Shares and redeeming or purchasing outstanding Common Shares;

  • declaring dividends and distributions;

  • appointing officers and determining the term of office and compensation of officers;

  • exercising the borrowing powers of our Company and mortgaging the property of our Company; and

  • approving the transfer of Common Shares, including the registering of such Common Shares in our share register.

Position Descriptions

The Board has not developed written position descriptions for the chair or the chair of any Board committees or for the CEO. Given the size of the Company and the existence of only a small number of officers, the Board does not feel that it is necessary at this time to formalize position descriptions in order to delineate their respective responsibilities.

Nomination of Directors

The Company does not have a formal process or committee for proposing new nominees for election to the Board. The nominees are generally the result of recruitment efforts by the Board members, including both formal and informal discussions among Board members.

Qualification

34





There is no shareholding qualification for directors.

Orientation and Continuing Education

When new directors are appointed, they receive orientation, commensurate with their previous experience, on the Company’s technologies, business and industry and on the responsibilities of directors. New directors also receive historical public information about the Company and the mandates of the committees of the Board. Board meetings may also include presentations by the Company’s management and employees to give the directors additional insight into the Company’s business. In addition, new directors are encouraged to visit and meet with management on a regular basis and to pursue continuing education opportunities where appropriate.

Assessments

The Board regularly assesses its own effectiveness and the effectiveness and contribution of each Board committee member and director.

Interested Transactions

A director may vote with respect to any contract or transaction in which he or she is interested, provided that the nature of the interest of any director in such contract or transaction is disclosed by him or her at or prior to its consideration and any vote in that matter.

Board Committees

Our Board has established an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee has various responsibilities as set forth in Multilateral Instrument 52-110 (“MI 52-110”). The Audit Committee oversees the accounting and financial reporting practices and procedures of the Company and the audits of the Company’s financial statements. The principal responsibilities of the Audit Committee include: (i) overseeing the quality, integrity and appropriateness of the internal controls and accounting procedures of the Company, including reviewing the Company’s procedures for internal control with the Company’s auditors and Chief Financial Officer; (ii) reviewing and assessing the quality and integrity of the Company’s internal and external reporting processes, its annual and quarterly financial statements and related management discussion and analysis, and all other material continuous disclosure documents; (iii) establishing separate reviews with management and external auditors of significant changes in procedures or financial and accounting practices, difficulties encountered during auditing, and significant judgments made in management's preparation of financial statements; (iv) monitoring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related to financial reporting; (v) reviewing and pre-approving the engagement of the auditor of the Company and independent audit fees; and (vi) assessing the Company’s accounting policies, and considering, approving, and monitoring significant changes in accounting principles and practices recommended by management and the auditor.

Audit Committee Charter

The Audit Committee Charter is filed as an exhibit to this Form 20-F.

Composition of the Audit Committee

As noted above, the members of the Audit Committee are Alejandro Ochoa, Robert Horsley, and Brian Gusko, of which only Mr. Gusko is considered independent pursuant to NI 52-110. All members of the Audit Committee are considered to be financially literate.

A member of the Audit Committee is independent if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A material relationship means a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, reasonably interfere with the exercise of a member’s independent judgment.

A member of the Audit Committee is considered financially literate if he or she has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company.

Canadian Federal Income Tax Information for United States Residents

The following is a discussion of material Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to holders of our common shares who, for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations thereunder, or the Canadian Tax Act:

  • deal at arm’s length and are not affiliated with us;

  • hold such shares as capital property;

  • do not use or hold (and will not use or hold) and are not deemed to use or hold our common shares, in or in the course of carrying on business in Canada;

  • have not been at any time residents of Canada; and

  • are, at all relevant times, residents of the United States, or U.S. Residents, under the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980), or the Convention.

TAX MATTERS ARE VERY COMPLICATED AND THE CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, OWNING AND DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON SHARES WILL DEPEND UPON THE STOCKHOLDER’S PARTICULAR SITUATION. THE SUMMARY OF MATERIAL CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SET FORTH BELOW IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE ONLY A GENERAL SUMMARY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES.

THIS DISCUSSION DOES NOT INCLUDE A DESCRIPTION OF THE TAX LAWS OF ANY PROVINCE OR TERRITORY WITHIN CANADA. ACCORDINGLY, HOLDERS AND PROSPECTIVE HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON SHARES ARE ENCOURAGED TO CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISERS ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM HAVING REGARD TO THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING ANY CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, OWNING OR DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON

41





SHARES ARISING UNDER CANADIAN FEDERAL, CANADIAN PROVINCIAL OR TERRITORIAL, U.S. FEDERAL, U.S. STATE OR LOCAL TAX LAWS OR TAX LAWS OF JURISDICTIONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES OR CANADA.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Canadian Income Tax Act, proposed amendments to the Canadian Income Tax Act publicly announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Proposed Amendments”), and the provisions of the Convention as in effect on the date hereof. No assurance can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be entered into law in the manner proposed, or at all. No advance income tax ruling has been requested or obtained from the Canada Revenue Agency to confirm the tax consequences of any of the transactions described herein.

This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax consequences for U.S. Residents, and other than the Proposed Amendments, does not take into account or anticipate any changes in law, whether by legislative, administrative, governmental or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account Canadian provincial, U.S. or foreign tax considerations which may differ significantly from those discussed herein. No assurances can be given that subsequent changes in law or administrative policy will not affect or modify the opinions expressed herein.

A U.S. Resident will not be subject to tax under the Canadian Tax Act in respect of any capital gain on a disposition of our common shares unless such shares constitute “taxable Canadian property”, as defined in the Canadian Tax Act, of the U.S. Resident and the U.S. Resident is not eligible for relief pursuant to the Convention. Our common shares will not constitute “taxable Canadian property” if, at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding the disposition of the common shares, the U.S. Resident, persons with whom the U.S. Resident did not deal at arm’s length, or the U.S. Resident together with all such persons, did not own 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares of our capital stock. In addition, the Convention generally will exempt a U.S. Resident who would otherwise be liable to pay Canadian income tax in respect of any capital gain realized by the U.S. Resident on the disposition of our common shares, from such liability provided that the value of our common shares is not derived principally from real property situated in Canada, Canadian Resource Property and Canadian Timber Resource Property. However, where the US resident and purchaser are related the purchaser must generally report the transaction to the Canada Revenue Agency within 30 days of the transaction date to benefit from the Convention. The Convention may not be available to a U.S. Resident that is a U.S. LLC which is not subject to tax in the U.S.

Amounts in respect of our common shares paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited as, on account or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, dividends to a U.S. Resident will generally be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax at the rate of 25%. Currently, under the Convention the rate of Canadian non-resident withholding tax will generally be reduced to:

  • 5% of the gross amount of dividends if the beneficial owner is a company that is resident in the U.S. and that owns at least 10% of our voting shares; or

  • 15% of the gross amount of dividends if the beneficial owner is some other resident of the U.S.

Generally, the Convention does not apply to US resident LLC’s that are fiscally transparent. However, the Convention may apply to afford reduced withholding tax rates on dividends attributed to a US resident member of a US resident fiscally transparent LLC to the extent of the dividend being consider to have been received by that member.

United States Federal Income Tax Information for United States Holders.

The following is a general discussion of material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares by U.S. Holders (as defined below). This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury regulations (whether final, temporary or proposed) promulgated thereunder, and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof, all as in effect at the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion only addresses the tax consequences for U.S. Holders that hold their Common Shares as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Code Section 1221 (generally, property held for investment purposes) and does not address U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to particular U.S. Holders in light of their individual circumstances or U.S. Holders that are subject to special treatment under certain U.S. federal income tax laws, such as:

  • tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts or other tax-deferred accounts;

  • persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

  • banks, other financial institutions or regulated investment companies;

  • insurance companies;

  • dealers in securities or currencies or traders that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method;

  • persons who hold their Common Shares as a hedge or as part of a straddle, constructive sale, conversion transaction, or other risk management transaction;

  • persons that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar;

42





  • persons subject to Code Section 451(b);

  • persons who acquired their Common Shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation;

  • persons who are U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

  • persons that own (directly, indirectly or by attribution) 10% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the outstanding shares of the Company; or

  • corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax.

If an entity that is classified as a partnership (or other “pass-through” entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Common Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such partnership (or other “pass-through” entity) and the partners of such partnership (or owners of such other “pass-through” entity) generally will depend on the activities of the partnership (or other “pass-through” entity) and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences for any such partner or partnership (or other “pass-through” entity or owner). Partners of entities that are classified as partnerships (or owners of other “pass-through” entities) for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares.

This summary does not address the U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. Medicare contribution, or non-U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. state and local, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. Medicare contribution, and non-U.S. tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares.

As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Common Shares that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is:

  • an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

  • a corporation, or any other entity classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state in the United States, or the District of Columbia;

  • an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

  • a trust if (i) such trust has validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust.

TAX MATTERS ARE VERY COMPLICATED AND THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF OWNING AND DISPOSING OF COMMON SHARES WILL DEPEND UPON THE U.S. HOLDER’S PARTICULAR SITUATION. THE SUMMARY OF MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SET FORTH BELOW IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE ONLY A GENERAL SUMMARY AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES THAT MAY APPLY TO A U.S. HOLDER AS A RESULT OF OWNING OR DISPOSING OF COMMON SHARES. ACCORDINGLY, THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS, LEGAL OR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX ADVICE WITH RESPECT TO ANY PARTICULAR U.S. HOLDER. EACH U.S. HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, U.S. STATE AND LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF COMMON SHARES.

Ownership of Common Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, the gross amount of any distribution received by a U.S. Holder with respect to Common Shares generally will be included in the U.S. Holder’s gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent attributable to our current and accumulated “earnings and profits” (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). To the extent a distribution received by a U.S. Holder is not a dividend because distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, it will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the U.S. Holder’s Common Shares and reduce (but not below zero) the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. Holder’s Common Shares. To the extent the distribution exceeds the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. Holder’s Common Shares, the distribution will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of the U.S. Holder’s Common Shares (See more detailed discussion under the heading “Sale of Common Shares,” below). We may not maintain calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder should therefore assume that any distribution by the Company with respect to Common Shares will constitute a dividend.

Dividends received by a non-corporate U.S. Holder from a “qualified foreign corporation” (as defined below) are taxed at the same preferential rates that apply to long-term capital gains if the shares with respect to which the dividends are paid have been

43





held for at least 61 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the "ex-dividend date.” A foreign corporation is a “qualified foreign corporation” if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States (the income tax treaty between Canada and the United States is such a treaty) or the shares with respect to which such dividend is paid are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Notwithstanding satisfaction of one or both of these conditions, a foreign corporation is not a qualified foreign corporation if it is a PFIC for the taxable year of the corporation in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year. (Whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is discussed below under the heading “Passive Foreign Investment Companies”).

If we are not a qualified foreign corporation, subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a dividend paid by the Company to a U.S. Holder, including a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, generally will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates (and not at the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains). The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the dividend rules.

If we make a distribution in Canadian dollars, the U.S. dollar value of such distribution based on the exchange rate on the date of receipt is generally used to determine the amount of the distribution received by a U.S. Holder. A U.S. Holder who continues to hold such Canadian dollars after the date on which they are received may recognize gain or loss upon their disposition due to exchange rate fluctuations. Generally such gains and losses will be ordinary income or loss from U.S. sources.

Corporate U.S. Holders generally will not be eligible for the “dividends received deduction” with respect to dividends they receive from us.

Sale of Common Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares equal to the difference, if any, between: (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Common Shares. This gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held such Common Shares for more than one year at the time of sale or other taxable disposition. Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares generally will be treated as “U.S. source” for purposes of applying the U.S. foreign tax credit rules.

Generally, the long-term capital gains of a non-corporate U.S. Holder are subject to taxation at preferential tax rates. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations under the Code.

The amount realized on a sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares for an amount in foreign currency will generally be the U.S. dollar value of this amount on the date of sale or disposition. On the settlement date, the U.S. Holder will recognize U.S. source foreign currency gain or loss (taxable as ordinary income or loss) equal to the difference (if any) between the U.S. dollar value of the amount received based on the exchange rates in effect on the date of sale or other disposition and the settlement date.

Foreign Tax Credit

Subject to a number of limitations, a U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on Common Shares or gain from the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares may generally elect to claim a credit or a deduction for such Canadian income tax paid. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder’s income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder’s “foreign source” taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder’s worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder’s various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either “foreign source” or “U.S. source.” In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. Dividends paid by the Company generally will constitute “foreign source” income and generally will be categorized as “passive income.”

The rules relating to the determination of the foreign tax credit are very complex. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to determine whether and to what extent they would be entitled to claim a foreign tax credit.

Passive Foreign Investment Companies

If the Company is or becomes a PFIC, or a U.S. Holder held Common Shares while the Company was a PFIC, the preceding sections of this summary may not describe the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares.

We will be a PFIC if, in any taxable year either: (a) 75% or more of our gross income consists of passive income (“income test”); or (b) on average for such taxable year, 50% or more of the value of our assets is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income (“asset test”). Subject to certain limited exceptions, if we meet the income test or the asset test for a particular taxable year, the Common Shares held by a U.S. Holder in that year will be treated as shares of a PFIC for that year and all subsequent years in the U.S. Holder’s holding period, even if we fail to meet either test in a subsequent year.

For purposes of the income test and asset test, if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, the Company will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other corporation. In addition, if the Company is a PFIC and owns shares of another foreign corporation that also is a PFIC (“subsidiary PFIC”), a disposition of the shares of the subsidiary PFIC by the Company or a distribution received by the Company from the subsidiary PFIC generally will be treated as an indirect disposition by a U.S. Holder or an indirect distribution received by a U.S. Holder, subject to the excess distribution regime discussed below. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should be aware that they could be subject to tax even if no distributions are received and no redemptions or other dispositions of Common Shares are made. To the extent that gain recognized on the actual disposition by a U.S. Holder of Common Shares or income recognized by a U.S. Holder on an actual distribution received on Common Shares was previously subject to U.S. federal income tax under these indirect ownership rules, such amount generally should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax again.

If the Company is currently a PFIC, or a U.S. Holder held Common Shares while the Company was a PFIC in prior years, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares will depend on whether such U.S. Holder makes an election to treat the Company and any subsidiary PFIC as a “qualified electing fund” or “QEF” under Code Section 1295 (a “QEF Election”) or a mark-to-market election for the Company under Code Section 1296 (a “Mark-to-Market Election”). A U.S. Holder that does not make either a QEF Election or a Mark-to-Market Election is referred to in this summary as a “Non-Electing U.S. Holder.”

A Non-Electing U.S. Holder would be subject to tax under the excess distribution regime. Under the excess distribution regime, federal income tax on a U.S. Holder’s gain from the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares would be calculated by allocating the gain ratably to each day the U.S. Holder held its Common Shares. Gain allocated to years preceding the first year in which we were a PFIC in the U.S. Holder’s holding period, if any, and gain allocated to the year of disposition would be treated as gain arising in the year of disposition and taxed as ordinary income. The amount of any gain allocated to other years generally would be subject to U.S. federal income tax in the current year at the highest tax rate applicable to ordinary income in each such prior year, and a Non-Electing U.S. Holder would be required to pay interest on the resulting tax liability for each such prior year, calculated as if such tax liability had been due in each such prior year. A distribution that exceeds 125% of the average distributions received on Common Shares by a U.S. Holder during the three preceding taxable years (or, if shorter, the portion of the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the taxable year) (referred to as an “excess distribution”) would be taxed in a similar manner.

A U.S. Holder may avoid taxation under the excess distribution regime by making a QEF Election. If a QEF Election is made, for each year that we met the income test or asset test, an electing U.S. Holder would be required to include in gross income its pro rata share of our net ordinary earnings and net capital gains, if any. The U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Common Shares would be increased by the amount of such income inclusions. An actual distribution to the U.S. Holder out of such income generally would not be treated as a dividend for U.S. tax purposes and would decrease the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Common Shares. Gain realized from the sale of Common Shares subject to a QEF election would generally be taxed as a capital gain. U.S. Holders will be eligible to make QEF elections only if we agree to provide to the U.S. Holders the information they need to comply with the QEF rules. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the availability and desirability of, and procedure for, making a timely and effective QEF Election for the Company and any subsidiary PFIC.

A U.S. Holder may also avoid taxation under the excess distribution regime by timely making a Mark-to-Market Election. A U.S. Holder may make a Mark-to-Market Election only if Common Shares are “marketable stock” (as defined in Code Section 1296(e)). An electing U.S. Holder would include in gross income, as ordinary income, for each taxable year in which the Company met the income test or asset test, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the fair market value of the Common Shares as of the close of such taxable year over (b) such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such Common Shares. A U.S. Holder that

45





makes a Mark-to-Market Election will, subject to certain limitations, be allowed a deduction in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Common Shares over (b) the fair market value of such Common Shares as of the close of such taxable year. Gain from the sale or other taxable disposition of Common Shares covered by a Mark-to-Market Election generally is treated as ordinary income from U.S. sources while a loss is generally treated as an ordinary loss from U.S. sources but only to the extent of prior income inclusions. Losses in excess of such prior income inclusions are treated as capital losses from U.S. sources. Capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code. A Mark-to-Market Election may not be made with respect to the stock of any subsidiary PFIC because such stock is not “marketable stock.” Hence, a Mark-to-Market Election will not be effective to eliminate the application of the excess distribution regime, described above, with respect to deemed dispositions of subsidiary PFIC stock or excess distributions with respect to a subsidiary PFIC. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the availability and desirability of, and procedure for, making a timely and effective Mark-to-Market Election with respect to Common Shares.

The Company does not believe that it has been a PFIC, and, based on current operations and financial projections, does not expect that it will be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2019. The determination of whether the Company was, or will be, a PFIC for a taxable year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether the Company will be a PFIC for the taxable year ending December 31, 2019 and each subsequent taxable year depends on the assets and income of the Company over the course of each such taxable year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this Annual Report. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the determination made by the Company concerning its PFIC status or that the Company was not, or will not be, a PFIC for any taxable year.

If the Company meets the income test or asset test for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns Common Shares, the Company will be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder for that taxable year and for all subsequent taxable years, regardless of whether the Company meets the income test or asset test for such subsequent taxable years, unless the U.S. Holder elects to recognize any unrealized gain in the Common Shares or makes a timely and effective QEF Election or Mark-to-Market Election.

The PFIC rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the PFIC rules and how the PFIC rules may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Common Shares.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

United States information reporting and backup withholding, currently at the rate of 24%, may apply to distributions received with respect to, or the payment of proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Common Shares, unless the U.S. Holder: (a) is an exempt recipient (including a corporation), (b) complies with certain requirements, including applicable certification requirements, or (c) is described in certain other categories of exempt persons. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld from a payment to a U.S. Holder under the backup withholding rules may be credited against any U.S. federal income tax liability of the U.S. Holder and may entitle the U.S. Holder to a refund if required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO U.S. HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF COMMON SHARES. U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO THEM IN THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss related to changes in market prices, including interest rates and foreign exchange rates, of financial instruments that may adversely impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Inflation-related risks

In May 2018, the Argentinean Peso underwent a severe devaluation resulting in Argentina’s three-year cumulative inflation exceeding 100% in 2018, and consequently for the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company determined that Argentina was in a state of hyperinflation. The Company’s subsidiary, Evotech, operates in Argentina and the functional currency of Evotech is the Argentinian Peso.

Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our revenues or income over the past two fiscal years, the hyperinflationary situation in Argentina helped contribute to a foreign exchange translation loss of 480,132 in 2018 and further increases in inflation in Argentina or the other markets in which we operate could result in increases in our expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the price of goods or services provided to our clients. To the extent that inflation results in rising interest rates and has other adverse effects on capital markets, it could adversely affect our financial position and profitability.

Financial Instruments and Risk

Fair values

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, amounts receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable, due to related parties and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of their current nature.

The following table summarizes the carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments:

  2018 2017
  $ $
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (i) 1,092,245 389,801
Amortized cost (ii) 12,081,561 2,297,298

 

  (i)     

Cash, accounts receivable and other receivables and bonds payable.

  (ii)     

Bank indebtedness, accounts payable, interest payable, deferred revenue, convertible debt, promissory notes payable, loans payable and loans due to related parties.

The Company provides information about financial instruments that are measured at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the inputs used to determine the fair value are observable.

  • Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The Company’s cash is measured using level 1 fair value measurements.

Credit Risk

47





Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. To minimize the credit risk the Company places cash with high credit quality financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company's objective in managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity available to meet its liabilities when due. The Company uses cash to settle its financial obligations as they fall due. The ability to do this relies on the Company’s ability to collect its revenue in a timely manner, continuous support from shareholders and investors and maintain sufficient cash on hand. As at December 31, 2018, the Company is not subject to significant liquidity risk.

The following table summarizes the maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities as of December 31, 2018 based on undiscounted cash flows:

The Company has a working capital deficiency as of December 31, 2018 of $10,107,307

Currency Risk

The Company generates revenues and incurs expenses and capital expenditures in Canada, Colombia, Mexico, Argentina and the United States and is exposed to the resulting risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Some administrative and head office related expenses are incurred in Canada. In addition, the Company holds financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies that expose the Company to foreign exchange risks. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to the Colombia Peso, Mexico Peso, Argentina Peso or U.S. dollars could have an effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position and/or cash flows. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations.

At December 31, 2018, the Company had the following financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies:

  Argentinian Colombian Mexican United States Total
  Pesos Pesos Pesos Dollars

Item 15. Controls and Procedures

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Our principal executive and financial officers supervised and participated in this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon various assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any of our plans, products, services or procedures will succeed in achieving their intended goals under future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15f and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are

49





subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. In making this assessment management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment and the criteria discussed above, management believes that, as of December 31, 2018, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. F-1

 






REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Tower One Wireless Corp.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Tower One Wireless Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (collectively referred to as the “ consolidated financial statements”).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of Matter

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit and has accumulated losses since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our audit opinion.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Tower One Wireless Corp. (“Tower One” or the “Company") is a pure-play, build-to-suit (“BTS”) tower owner, operator and developer of multitenant communications structures. The Company’s primary business is the leasing of space on communications sites to mobile network operators (“MNOs”). The Company offers tower-related services in the largest Spanish speaking countries in Latin America: Argentina, Colombia and Mexico, and technical support services in the United States of America. Tower-related services include site acquisition, zoning and permitting, structural analysis, and construction which primarily supports the Company’s site leasing business, including the addition of new tenants and equipment on its sites.

Tower One was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada on September 12, 2005. The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the symbol TO.CN. The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 605, 815 Hornby Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6Z 2E6.

On January 17, 2017, Tower One completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tower Three SAS (“Tower Three”) and the shareholders of Tower Three. According to the Agreement, Tower One acquired Tower Three by issuing shares which resulted in the shareholders of Tower Three obtaining control of the Company (the “Acquisition”). Accordingly, this transaction was recorded as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes, with Tower Three being identified as the accounting acquirer.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, and accordingly, do not purport to give effect to adjustments which may be required should the Company be unable to achieve the objectives above as a going concern. The net realizable value of the Company’s assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded in these consolidated financial statements should the Company be unable to realize its ass ets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $10,107,344 and an accumulated deficit of $18,789,710 which has been funded primarily by loans from related parties. Ongoing operations of the Company are dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient revenues in the future, receive continued financial support and complete equity financings. These factors raise significant doubt about the Company’s abili ty to continue as a going concern.

On May 7, 2019, the Company received a cease trade order, pursuant to which the Company's stock was halted from trading. This cease trade order was issued in connection with the Company's failure to file these audited consolidated financial statements by the due date of April 30, 2018.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

(c) Use of Estimates and Judgments

The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the following:

  (i)     

Intangible Assets – useful lives

The Company records intangible assets purchased in a business combination at their fair value. Determining fair value requires management to use estimates that could be material. Following initial recognition, the Company carries the value of intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recorded on a straight -line basis based upon management’s estimate of the useful life and residual value. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of technical obsolescence or legal and other limits to use. A change in the useful life or residual value will impact the reported carrying value of the intangible assets resulting in a change in related amortization expense.

  (ii)     

Inputs into Black-Scholes model

The Company has applied estimates with respect to the valuation of shares issued for non -cash consideration. Shares are valued first at the fair value of services received, and if this not readily determinable, at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the date the Company receives the goods or services.

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of services performed, and if the fair value of the services performed is not readily determinable, at the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the fair value of the underlying common shares, the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield. The fair value of the underlying common shares is assessed as the quoted market price on grant date. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are discussed in Note 15. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

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

(c) Use of Estimates and Judgments (Continued)

  (iii)     

Useful lives of Equipment

Amortization is recorded on a declining balance basis based upon management’s estimate of the useful life and residual value. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of the physical condition, technical obsolescence or legal and other limits to use. A change in the useful life or residual value will impact the reported carrying value of towers and equipment resulting in a change in related amortization expense.

Use of Judgments

Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments with a significant risk of material adjustment in the year:

  (i)     

Going concern

The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. The Company is aware that material uncertainties related to events or conditions may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Further information regarding going concern is outlined in Note 1.

  (ii)     

Income taxes

The measurement of income taxes payable and deferred income tax assets and liabilities requires management to make judgments in the interpretation and application of the relevant tax laws. The actual amount of income taxes only becomes final upon filing and acceptance of the tax return by the relevant tax authorities, which occurs subsequent to the issuance of the Consolidated financial statements.

  (iii)     

Business acquisitions

The determination of the acquirer in business acquisitions is subject to judgment and requires the Company to determine which party obtains control of the combining entities. Management applies judgment in determining control by assessing the following three factors: whether the Company has power; whether the Company has exposure or rights to variable returns; and whether the Company has the ability to use its power to affect the amount of its returns. In exercising this judgment, management reviewed the representation on the Board of Directo rs and key management personnel, the party that initiated the transaction, and each of the entities’ activities.

The assessment of whether an acquisition constitutes a business is also subject to judgment and requires the Company to review whether the acquired entity contains all three elements of a business, including inputs, processes and the ability to create output.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

(c) Use of Estimates and Judgments (Continued)

  (iv)     

Intangible Assets – impairment

The application of the Company’s accounting policy for intangible assets expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditures are capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditures is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in profit or loss in the period the new information becomes available.

  (v)     

Classification of lease agreements

Management uses judgment in determining whether a lease is a finance lease arrangement that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

  (vi)     

Impairment of equipment

At the end of each reporting period, management makes a judgment whether there are any indications of impairment of its equipment. If there are indications of impairment, manag ement performs an impairment test on a cash-generating unit basis. The impairment test compares the recoverable amount of the asset to its carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s value in use (present value of the estimated fut ure cash flows) and its estimated fair value less costs of disposal.

  (vii)     

Determination of functional currency and hyperinflationary economies

The determination of the functional currency for the Company and its subsidiaries was based on management's judgment of the underlying transactions, events and conditions relevant to each entity. The determination of whether an entity operates in a hyperinflationary economy was based on management’s judgment of the underlying economic condition of the country the entity operates in.

  (viii)     

Discount rate used for convertible debentures

The carrying value of the convertible debentures is subject to management’s estimates in determining an appropriate discount rate based on similar instruments with no conversion features.

3. REVERSE ACQUISITION AND LISTING EXPENSE

The Company completed the Acquisition described in Note 1 by issuing 30,000,000 common shares to the shareholders of Tower Three. For accounting purposes, the Acquisition is considered to be outside the scope of IFRS 3 Business Combinations since Tower One was inactive prior to the Acquisition and were limited to the management of cash resources and the maintenance of its listing and accordingly did not constitute a business. The Acquisition was accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment whereby Tower Three was deemed to have issued shares in exchange for the net assets or liabilities of Tower One together with its listing status at the fair value of the consideration received by Tower Three.

Since the share and share-based consideration allocated to the former shareholders of the Company on closing the Acquisition is considered within the scope of IFRS 2, and the Company could not identify specifically some or all of the goods or service received in return for the allocation of the shares, the value in excess of the net identifiable assets or obligations plus liabilities assumed by the Company acquired on closing was expensed in the statement of comprehensive loss as listing expense.

The Company was deemed to have issued 6,735,885 common shares of Tower Three at $0.15 per common share for a fair value of $1,010,383, which was included as consideration to the former shareholders of the Company. The $0.15 value for the above -mentioned shares was based on the fair value from the concurrent private placement. The fair value of all the consideration given and charged to listing expense was comprised of:

4. ACQUISITION OF EVOLUTION TECHNOLOGY SA

On March 30, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Offer Agreement with the shareholders of Evolution Technology SA (“Evotech”) to acquire a 65% ownership interest. Since its incorporation on March 10, 2016, Evotech has obtained various permits for constructing cellular towers and also has master lease agreements with major telecom carriers in Argentina.

To obtain the 65% ownership interest, the Company paid US$350,000 and issued 1,500,000 common shares with a fair value of $480,000 to the shareholders of Evotech. In addition, the Company is committed to contribute the funds necessary for Evotech to construct 50 towers, or a lower number of towers to be agreed between the parties, for up to a total maximum amount of US$3,500,000.

The Company determined that the acquisition of Evotech constituted a business combination as Evotech has inputs, processes and outputs. As such the Company has applied the acquisition method of accounting. As part of the acquisition of Evotech, the Company acquired Evotech’s master lease agreement, which was recorded as an intangible asset.

The following table presents the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilitie s assumed based on their estimated fair values, which is the same as the carrying values, at the date of acquisition:

5. ACQUISITION OF TOWER CONSTRUCTION & TECHNICAL SERVICES, INC.

On October 18, 2017, the Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with the shareholders of Tower Construction & Technical Services, Inc. (“TCTS”) to acquire 70% ownership interest in TCTS.

To obtain the 70% ownership interest, the Company is committed to operate the business and manage its financial affairs. No cash consideration or equity instruments were issued on this acquisition.

The Company determined that the acquisition of TCTS constituted a business combination as it has inputs, processes and outputs. As such, the Company has applied the acquisition method of accounting.

The following table presents assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, which is the same as the carrying values, at the date of acquisition:

6. ACQUISITION OF COMERCIALIZADORA MEXMAKEN, S.A. DE C.V.

On April 3, 2018, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Offer Agreement with the shareholders of Comercializadora Mexmaken, S.A. de C.V. (“Mexmaken”) to acquire a 90% ownership interest. Since its incorporation on September 9, 2015, Mexmaken obtained two Master Lease Agreements (“MLA”) with major Mexican telecom operators, one of which was acquired prior to the Company’s acquisition of Mexmaken.

To obtain the 90% ownership interest, the Company issued 7,500,000 common shares with a fair value of $1,312,500 to the shareholders of Mexmaken. As part of the acquisition of Mexmaken, the Company also issued common shares to a related party, who was a controlling shareholder of Mexmaken.

The Company determined that the acquisition of Mexmaken constituted a business combination as Mexmaken has inputs, processes and outputs. As such the Company has applied the acquisition method of accounting. As part of the acquisition of Mexmaken, the Company acquired Mexmaken’s master lease agreement, which was recorded as an intangible asset.

The following table presents the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, which is the same as the carrying values, at the date of acquisition:

    $  
  Fair value of common shares issued 1,312,500  
  Total consideration 1,312,500  
       
  Assets acquired:    
  Cash 18,436  
  Amounts receivable and prepaid expenses 20,463  
  Construction in progress 91,339  
  Furniture and equipment 2,741  
  Master lease agreement 428,000  
  Goodwill 1,315,258

  Accounts payable (356,404 )
  Deferred income tax liability (61,500 )
       
  Net assets of Mexmaken 1,458,333  
  Net assets attributed to non-controlling interest (145,833 )
       
  Net assets acquired 1,312,500  

As at December 31, 2018, the Company completed an impairment analysis in accordance with IAS 36 and determined that the carrying value of the Mexmaken CGU exceeded the fair value of the Mexmaken CGU based on its value in use. As a result, the Company recognized impairment of $2,132,942, including $1,315,258 of goodwill, $461,597 of property and equipment, $417,587 of intangible asset, and recorded a recovery of deferred income taxes of $61,500.

7. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these Consolidated financial statements:

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on hand, deposits in banks and highly liquid investments having original terms to maturity of 90 days or less.

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. To compute diluted loss per share, adjustments are made to common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would be outstanding if, at the beginning of the period or at time of issuance, all options and warrants were exercised. The proceeds from exercise are assumed to be used to purchase the Company’s common shares at their average market price during the period. For the years presented, this calculation proved to be anti-dilutive.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s leasing revenue is derived from lease arrangements to obtain rights to use the Company’s equipment.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the Company are classified as operating leases. Assets under operating leases are included in equipment. Leasing revenue from operating leases is recognized as the leasing services are provided.

The Company also earns service revenue. This revenue is recognized when the control over goods or services is transferred to the customer. As such, the revenue is recognized after: the contract is identified; performance obligations are identified; the transaction price is determined; the transaction price is allocated to the various performance obligations (if multiple performance obligations are identified); and ultimately, once the performance obligation is satisfied .

7. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Foreign currency translation

The results and financial position of a subsidiary whose functional currency is not the currency of a hyperinflationary economy is translated into the presentation currency using the following procedures:

  i.     

Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented (i.e. including comparatives) are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position;

  ii.     

Income and expenses for each statement presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income (i.e. including comparatives) are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and

  iii.     

All resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

For practical reasons, a rate that approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions, for example an average rate for the period, is often used to translate income and expense items.

The resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity. For the year ended December 31, 2018, an unrealized foreign exchange translation loss of $480,132 (2017 – $18,120; 2016 – $9,179) was recorded under accumulated other comprehensive loss as a result of changes in the value of the Colombian Peso, Argentina Peso, Mexican Peso and US dollars with respect to the Canadian dollar.

The results and financial position of a subsidiary whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy are translated into the presentation currency using the following procedures:

  i.     

All amounts (i.e. assets, liabilities, equity items, income and expenses, including comparatives) are translated at the closing rate at the date of the most recent statement of financial position, except that

  ii.     

When amounts are translated into a non-hyperinflationary presentation currency (i.e. CAD), comparative amounts remain unchanged from those reported in the prior periods.

When an entity's functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, the entity shall restate its financial statements in accordance with IAS 29 before applying the translation meth od described above. When the economy ceases to be hyperinflationary and the entity no longer restates its financial statements in accordance with IAS 29, it shall use as the historical costs for translation into the presentation currency the amounts restated to the price level at the date the entity ceased restating its financial statements.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, it was determined that Argentina was in a state of hyperinflation. The Company’s subsidiary, Evotech, operates in Argentina and the functional currency of Evotech is the Argentinian Peso. Accordingly, the balances of Evotech were restated using the historical cost approach in accordance with IAS 29 prior to translation into the presentation currency. In order to restate the balances of Evotech, the Company used Argentina’s consumer price index, Índice de Precios al Consumidor (“IPCBA”), as per which the IPCBA for Argentina fluctuated from 483.3 0 at December 2017 to 703.01 in December 2018.

7. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization expense for towers begins in the month of transfer of each tower from construction in progress to towers. Costs not clearly related to the procurement, manufacturing and implementation are expensed as incurred.

Towers represent cellular towers owned by the Company. The towers are operated at various sites and under contractual license agreements.

  • Amortization of the equipment is calculated on the declining-balance basis at the following annual rates: Towers - 10%

  • Furniture and equipment - between 10% and 33.3%

Costs of assets in the course of construction are capitalized as construction in prog ress. Upon completion, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property and equipment and amortization commences when the asset is available for its intended use.

An asset’s residual value, useful life and amortization meth od are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted if appropriate. When parts of an item of equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the equipment and are recognized in profit or loss.

Intangible asset

Intangible assets consist of master lease agreements acquired by the Company. Acquired lease agreements are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are reviewed annually for impairment. Any impairment of intangible asset is recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss but increases in intangible asset values are not recognized.

Estimated useful lives of intangible assets are the shorter of the economic life and the period the right is legally enforceable. The assets’ useful lives are reviewe d, and adjusted if appropriate, at each statement of financial position date. The useful life of the Company’s intangible asset s, consisting of master lease agreements, is estimated to be 25 years.

At each financial position reporting date, the carrying amounts of the Company’s long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible asset, are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units (“CGU’s”) to which the asset belongs.

Impairment

Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset’s carrying amount may be less than its recoverable amount. Management uses its judgment to estimate these inputs and any changes to these inputs could have a material impact on the impairment calculation. For impairment testing, non -financial assets that do not generate independent cash flows are grouped together into CGU, which represent the levels at which largely independent cash flows are generated. An impairment loss is recognized in earnings to the extent that the carrying value of an asset, CGU or group of CGU’s exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset, CGU or group of CGU’s is the greater of its value i n use and its fair value less cost to sell. Value in use is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at appropriate pre-tax discount rates. An impairment loss relating to a specific asset reduces the carrying value of the asset. An impairment loss relating to a group of CGU’s is allocated on a pro -rata basis to reduce the carrying value of the assets in the units comprising the group. A previously recognized impairment loss related to non-financial assets is assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss related to non -financial assets is reversed if there is a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying value does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no loss had been recognized.

Share capital

Common shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs directl y attributable to the issue of common shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Common shares issued for consideration other than cash, are valued based on their market value at the date the shares are issued.

The Company has adopted a residual value method with respect to the measurement of shares and warrants issued as private placement units. The residual value method first allocates value to the more easily measurable component based on fair value and then the residual value, if any, to the less easily measurable component. The Company considers the fair value of common shares issued in a private placement to be the more easily measurable component and the common shares are valued at their fair value, as determined by the closing quoted bid price on the announcement date. The balance, if any, is allocated to the attached warrants. Any fair value attributed to the warrants is recorded as reserves.

Share-based payments

Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it i s determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards expected to vest. The offset to the recorded cost is to warrants and options reserve. Consideration received on the exercise of stock options is recorded as share capital and the related amount in warrants and options reserve is transferred to share capital. Charges for options that are forfeited before vesting are reversed from share -based payments reserve. For those options that expire or are forfeited after vesting, the recorded value is transferred to deficit.

Income taxes

Income tax expense consisting of current and deferred tax expense is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period-end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regard to previous years.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities and the related deferred income tax expense or recovery are recognized for deferred tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that substantive enactment occurs.

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxa ble profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, the deferred tax asset is reduced. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Provisions

Provisions are recorded when a present legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of past events where it is probable that an outflow of resourced embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the statement of financial position date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

Financial instruments

Financial assets - Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories:

  • Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”), or through profit or loss), and

  • Those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification depends on the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses are either recorded in profit or loss or OCI.

Financial assets - Measurement

At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVTPL are expensed in profit or loss. Financial assets are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification. There are three measurement categories under which the Company classifies its financial assets:

  • Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those c ash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included as finance income using the effective interest rate method.

  • Fair value through OCI (“FVOCI”): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains and losses, interest revenue, and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognized in other gains (losses). Interest income fr om these financial assets is included as finance income using the effective interest rate method.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

  • Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on an investment that is subsequently measured at FVTPL is recognized in profit or loss and presented net as revenue in the Statement of Loss and Comprehensive Loss in the period in which it arises.

The Company has classified its cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, and other receivable as FVTPL.

Financial liabilities

The Company classifies its financial liabilities into the following categories:

  • Financial liabilities at FVTPL; and

  • Amortized cost.

A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held -for-trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. The fair value changes to financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as follows:

  • the amount of change in the fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liability is presented in OCI; and

  • the remaining amount of the change in the fair value is presented in profi t or loss.

The Company does not designate any financial liabilities at FVTPL.

Other non-derivative financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

The Company has classified its bank indebtedness, accounts payable, interest payable, deferred revenues, convertible debentures, promissory note payable, loans payable, loans from related parties, and bonds payable as amortized cost.

Fair value hierarchy

The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy under which the Company's financial instruments are valued.

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based upon observable market data.

Cash is carried at fair value using a level 1 fair value measurement. The carrying value of amounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, interest payable, deferred revenues, convertible debentures, promissory note payable, loans payable, loans from related parties, and liabilities related to assets held for sale approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of the instruments.

Fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time, base d on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.

Adoption of new pronouncements

The Company adopted the following standards for the year ended December 31, 2018:

  • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

  • IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

  • IFRS 2 Share-based Payment

The mandatory adoption of the above revised accounting standards and interpretations on January 1, 2018 had no significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated financial statements for the current year or prior year presented.

Future changes in accounting policies

Certain new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards have been issued by the IASB that are mandatory for future accounting periods. Some updates that are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company may have been excluded from the list below.

Standard effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019

IFRS 16 Leases - In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 “Leases” (“IFRS 16”) that sets out the principles for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessee and lessor. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases, except when the term is 12 months or less or when the underlying asset has a low value. The effective date of IFRS 16 for the Company is January 1, 2019 and the Company will apply the standard retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings or deficit at that date, subject to permitted practical expedients. Therefore, the Company will not restate comparative information.

The adoption of IFRS 16 will result in the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability measured at the present value of the future lease payments on the consolidated statements of financial position for a majority of its leases that are considered operating leases under IAS 17 “Leases”. An amortization expense on the right-of-use asset and an interest expense on the lease liability will replace the operating lease expense. IFRS 16 will change the presentation of cash flows relating to leases in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows, but does not cause a difference in the amount of cash transferred between the parties of a lease. The Company is currently finalizing the quantification of the impact of IFRS 16 on its consolidated financial statements. As at January 1, 2019, it is estimated that total liabilities would increase by approximately $1,070,000 and assets would increase by approximately $1,070,000. The Company is continuing to assess the overall impact of the new standard, including the required changes to the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

10. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with a company (the “Purchaser”) whereby the Company has agreed to sell to the Purchaser certain tower assets in Colombia. The sale was not completed as of December 31, 2018, and accordingly the Company has reclassified the towers from property and equipment to assets held for sale on the consolidated statement of financial position . The net book value reported represents the lower of the carrying value and fair value less costs to sell.

In connection with the Agreement, the Company received an advance of USD$1,300,000 from the Purchaser in the form of a promissory note. The amount is subject to an annual interest rate of 10%, due on demand and is secured by a personal guarant ee from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company has incurred interest expense of $14,840 on this promissory note, which remains payable and is recorded within interest payable on the consolidated statement of financial position. As at December 31, 2018, the balance of the promissory note outstanding is $1,780,822 (USD$1,300,000)

11. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

June 2018

In June, 2018, the Company issued secured convertible debentures for gross proceeds of $1,000,000 under the following terms:

  • A term of one year;

  • An interest rate of 1% per month, payable monthly; and

  • Convertible into common shares of the Company at $0.20 per common share, until June 12, 2019, subject to adjustment in certain events.

In connection with the convertible debentures, the Company also issued 5,000,000 share purchase warrants to the holders exercisable at a price of $0.25 per common share for a period of one year. T he Company also incurred cash debt issuance costs of $76,791.

In November, 2018, the terms of these convertible debentures were modified as follows:

  • The conversion price was reduced to $0.10 per common share;

  • The expiry date of the original warrants was extended to November 13, 2019;

  • The exercise price of the share purchase warrants was reduced to $0.125 per common share; and

  • The Company issued 5,000,000 additional share purchase warrants to the purchasers exercisable at a price of $0.125 per common share, subject to certain adjustments in certain events with an expiry date of November 13, 2019.

The convertible debentures are secured against the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of a general security agreement of the Company issued in favor of the holders.

11. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (CONTINUED)

November 2018

In November, 2018, the Company issued secured convertible debentures for gross proceeds of $500,000 under the following terms:

  • A term of seven months;

  • An interest rate of 1% per month, payable monthly; and

  • Convertible into common shares of the Company at $0.10 per common share, until June 12, 2019, subject to adjustment in certain events.

In connection with the convertible debentures, the Company also issued 5,000,000 share purchase warrants to the purchasers exercisable at a price of $0.125 per common share for a period of one year until November 13, 2019. The Company also incurred cash debt issuance costs of $46,295.

The convertible debentures are secured against the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of a general security agreement of the Company issued in favor of the holders.

For accounting purposes, the convertible debentures are separated into their liability and equity components using the residual method. The fair value of the liability component at the time of issue was determined based on an estimated rate of 17% for convertible debentures without the conversion feature. The fair value of the equity component was determined as the difference between the face value of the convertible debentures and the fair value of the liability component. After initial recognition the liability component is carried on an amortized cost basis and will be accreted to its face value over the term to maturity of the convertible debentures at the effective rates noted below.

In connection with the bonds issued, the Company paid cash debt issuance costs of $77,304 and issued 740,240 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $28,514. The share purchase warrants are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.08 to $0.14 per common share for a period of two years.

The fair value of the share purchase warrants was calculated using the Black -Scholes model and the following weighted average assumptions:

  Share price at date of grant $0.10
  Exercise price $0.10
  Expected life 2 years
  Expected volatility 92.85%
  Risk free interest rate 2.12%
  Expected dividend yield 0%
  Expected forfeiture rate 0%

The cash debt issuance costs and fair value of the share purchase warrants were applied against the carrying value of the bond. As at December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the bond is $865,937. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company has incurred interest expense of $15,038 on the bonds payable, which remains payable and has been recorded within interest payable on the consolidated statement of financial position.

16. CAPITAL DISCLOSURE

The Company considers its capital under management to be comprised of shareholders’ equity and any debt that it may issue. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to maximize return on investment in towers, expand the Company’s wireless coverage footprint and to maximize returns for shareholders over the long term. The Company is not subject to any capital restrictions. There has been no change in the Company’s objectives in managing its capital.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK

As at December 31, 2018, the Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, other receivables, bank indebtedness, accounts payable, interest payable, deferred revenues, convertible debentures, promissory note payable, loans payable, loans from related parties, and bonds payable.

The Company provides information about financial instruments that are measured at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the inputs used to determine the fair value are observable.

  • Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data.

Cash is measured using level 1 fair value inputs. The carrying values of the amounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, interest payable, deferred revenues, convertible debentures, loans payable, and loans from related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

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 processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. To minimize the credit risk the Company places cash with a high credit quality financial institution.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company's objective in managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity available to meet its liabilities when due. The Company uses cash to settle its financial obligations as they fall due. The ability to do this relies on the Company’s ability to collect its revenue in a timely manner, continuous support from shareholders and investors and maintain sufficient cash on hand . To the extent that the Company does not believe it has sufficient liquidity to meet its current obligations, the Board of Directors considers securing additional funds through issuances of equity and debt or partnering transactions.

THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of January 31, 2019 (the “Effective Date”) among TOWER THREE SAS, a company organized and existing under the laws of Colombia (the “Developer”) and [***], a company organized and existing under the laws of Colombia (“[***]”). Each of Developer and [***] may hereafter be referred to as a “Party”, and collectively, as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Purchase Agreement.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Developer and [***] entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of November 21, 2018 (as amended, the “Colombia Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Developer agreed to sell and assign to [***], and [***] agreed to purchase and assume from Developer the Sites (as defined in the Colombia Purchase Agreement), in each case as more fully described and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, Developer is engaged in the business of constructing and operating telecommunications towers in Colombia (the “Territory”); and

WHEREAS, [***] desires to purchase from Developer, and Developer desires to sell to [***] certain Towers and their related Tower Assets that Developer intends to develop in the Territory (each a “Development Tower”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby mutually acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Purchase and Sell; Minimum Number of Development Towers; Term of Agreement.

(a) For a period of [***] commencing as of the Effective Date (the “Term”), and subject to the satisfaction of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Developer agrees to offer up to [***] Development Towers (in the aggregate together with the Mexico Development Towers and the Argentina Development Towers) for sale to [***] in accordance with the procedure described in Section 2 that meet the Minimum Conditions set forth in Exhibit A, and free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens. In the event that [***] (or its applicable affiliate in connection with the Mexico Development Towers or the Argentina Development Towers) approves the development of [***] Development Towers (in the aggregate together with the Mexico Development Towers and the Argentina Development Towers), [***] and Developer (or their respective affiliates) could mutually agree to amend this Agreement, the Mexico Development Agreement, and/or the Argentina Development Agreement to contemplate the development and acquisition of an additional [***] Towers.





(b) The Term may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties to be confirmed in writing prior to expiration of the Term then in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, if [***] has approved its intention to purchase any Development Tower during the Term, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall continue to apply through Closing (and any related post-Closing obligations) related to such Development Tower(s) but neither Party shall have continuing obligations related to any potential Development Tower(s) not identified by Developer and/or approved by [***].

2. Identification; Purchase Price; Payments; Closing.

(a) (i) Identification and Acceptance of Sites for Development Towers. During the Term, Developer shall identify each communications site (each a “Site”) on which it proposes to develop a future Tower in the Territory and which, in Developer’s sole discretion, it wishes to present to [***], by delivering to [***] detailed information in a form of a Search Ring or Site Acquisition Map in the form acceptable to the prospective Tenant. [***] shall have ten (10) Business Days following receipt from Developer of a Search Ring or Site Acquisition Map to determine, in its sole discretion, whether or not to accept the Site as a “Development Tower” for the sale to [***] under the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Asset Purchase Agreement. Any failure to respond by [***] during such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to be a rejection of the Site as a Development Tower. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, only those sites presented by Developer to [***] and accepted by [***] in accordance with this Section 2(a)(i) shall be “Development Towers” for purposes of this Agreement.

(ii) Ground Lease Option or Usufruct. For each Site that is accepted as a “Development Tower” pursuant to Section 2(a)(i), Developer shall provide to [***], as soon as practicable, the proposed Ground Lease Option applicable to such Site substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit 2(a)(ii) hereto. If the terms of the proposed Ground Lease Option are satisfactory to [***], [***] will purchase the Development Tower (and the related Tower Assets and Site) subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable Asset Purchase Agreement. If the terms of the proposed Ground Lease Option are not satisfactory to [***], [***] shall have the right to reject such Site as a Development Tower upon written notice to Developer within five (5) Business Days and upon receipt of such written notice, neither Party shall have any further obligations to the other Party under this Agreement with respect to such Site and such Site shall not be deemed to be a Development Tower for purposes of this Agreement (the failure of [***] to deliver written notice within such time frame shall be deemed [***]’s acceptance of the Ground Lease Option set forth therein).

(iii) ROFO. During the Term, Developer shall not sell, transfer or otherwise convey, or agree to sell, transfer or otherwise convey, except in connection with a joint venture or other financing arrangement to which Developer is a party, all or any portion of a tower (including the related Tower Assets and Site if such tower were a “Development Tower” or an “Acquisition Tower” under this Agreement), or any group of towers or any interest therein, located in the Territory, to any Person unless Developer has first offered to sell, transfer and convey the tower(s) (including the related Tower Assets and Site) to [***] by written notice (the “Sale Notice”). Any tower previously tendered to and rejected

by [***] as described in this Agreement (each a “Rejected Tower”) shall be exempt from the terms of this Section 2(a)(iii), provided that such exemption shall not apply if Developer proposes to include any Rejected Tower in an offer to any Person that combines such Rejected Tower with any other tower or group of towers that is subject to this Section 8 (the “Renewed ROFO”). The Sale Notice shall include (A) a description of the proposed tower(s) and (B) the price and other terms and conditions on which it is willing to sell such tower(s).

In the event [***] purchases the tower(s) pursuant to this Section 2(a)(iii), the Parties shall negotiate an Asset Purchase Agreement containing at least the same terms and conditions contemplated in the Sale Notice. Unless the Parties otherwise agree, the closing of any purchase of tower(s) shall occur five (5) Business Days after all third-party consents (including governmental approvals) are obtained. As to any tower(s) [***] does not exercise its right to purchase, Developer shall be free, during the [***] period following the Sale Notice (together with any reasonable and bona fide extensions of time required to complete the closing of an agreement made binding during such [***] period), to sell and convey the tower(s) to a bona fide third-party upon the same material terms and conditions available to [***] set forth in the Sale Notice. Any towers (and related Tower Assets and Sites) not sold within such [***] period shall continue to be subject to the requirements of this Section 2(a)(iii).

(b) Purchase Price. The purchase price for each Development Tower that meets the Minimum Conditions (the “Purchase Price”) shall equal the sum of (A) the Allocable Purchase Price, plus (B) any Earn-Out Amounts, if any, payable to Developer in accordance with this Section 2(b). At the Closing of each Development Tower, [***] shall pay an amount (the “Closing Date Payment”) equal to the Allocable Purchase Price minus the total amount of Milestone Payments paid in accordance with Section 2(c) of this Agreement (it being understood that the Fifth Milestone Payment shall not be required to be paid to the Developer until the Closing in accordance with Section 2(c)).
