		IMPLICATIONS OF BEING A FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER
We are considered a foreign private issuer. In our capacity as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934,as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act.We are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered underthe Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information.
We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time asmore than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority of our executiveofficers or directors are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or (iii) our business is administered principally in theUnited States.
We have taken advantage of certain reduced reporting and other requirements in this Annual Report that are available to foreign private issuers and not to U.S. domesticcompanies. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q from public companiesrequired to report as U.S domestic companies in which you hold equity securities.

An investment in our securities carries a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks, as well as the other information contained inthis Annual Report, including our historical and pro forma financial statements and the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this AnnualReport, before you decide to purchase our securities. Any one of these risks and uncertainties has the potential to cause material adverse effects on our business,prospects, financial condition and operating results which could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements expressed by us and asignificant decrease in the value of our securities. Refer to “Forward-Looking Statements”.
We may not be successful in preventing the material adverse effects that any of the following risks and uncertainties may cause. These potential risks anduncertainties may not be a complete list of the risks and uncertainties facing us.

You could lose all or a significant portion of yourinvestment due to any of these risks and uncertainties.
Risks Related to our Business and Industry
We have limited cash on hand and we will require a significant amount of capital to carry out our proposed business plan to develop, manufacture, sell and serviceelectric vehicles; there is no assurance that any amount raised through this offering will be sufficient to continue to fund operations of our Company.
We incurred a net loss and comprehensive loss of $41,326,835 and $41,326,248, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2021, and a net loss andcomprehensive loss of $63,046,905 and $58,832,999, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2020. Although we had a cash and cash equivalents and aworking capital surplus of $221,928,008 and $232,454,617, respectively, as at December 31, 2021, and of $129,450,676 and $130,755,823, respectively, as at December31, 2020, we believe that we will need significant additional equity financing to continue operations; and among other things:
●		we have begun the commercial production of our flagship vehicle, the SOLO, and we expect to incur significant ramp-up in costs and expenses through thelaunch of the vehicle;
●		we have begun deliveries to customers of our flagship vehicle, the SOLO, on October 4, 2021;
●		we anticipate that the gross profit generated from the sale of the SOLOs will not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses, and our achieving profitabilitywill depend, in part, on our ability to materially reduce the bill of materials and per unit manufacturing cost of our products; and
●		we do not anticipate that we will be eligible to obtain bank loans, or other forms of debt financing, on terms that would be acceptable to us.
We anticipate generating a significant loss for the next fiscal year.
We have minimal revenue and expect significant increases in costs and expenses to forestall profits for the foreseeable future, even if we generate revenues in the nearterm. Even though we have recently launched the SOLO into commercial production and deliveries, and even if we launch the Tofino or other intended electric vehicles (each, an “EV”), they might not become commercially successful. If we are to ever achieve profitability we must have a successful commercial introduction andacceptance of our vehicles, which may not occur. We expect that our operating losses will increase substantially in 2022, and thereafter, and we also expect to continue toincur operating losses and to experience negative cash flows for the next several years.

Table of Contents
We have a limited operating history and have generated minimal revenues.
Our limited operating history makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult. We were formed in February 2015, and we have begun production anddeliveries of our first electric vehicle. We intend to derive revenues from the sales of our SOLO vehicle, our Tofino vehicle , our e-Roadster and other intended EVs. TheTofino is still in the early design development stage, and the first commercially-produced SOLOs were delivered to certain of our initial customers commencing onOctober 4, 2021 and have continued to deliver to customers and fleets since the October 4 date. Our vehicles require significant investment prior to commercialintroduction and may never be successfully developed or commercially successful.
We have a history of operating losses and we expect our operating losses to accelerate and materially increase for the foreseeable future.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we generated a net loss of $41,326,835, bringing our accumulated deficit to $151,653,994.
We have minimal revenue and expect significant increases in costs and expenses to forestall profits for the foreseeable future. We have begun the commercial productionand delivery of our flagship vehicle, the SOLO, and we expect to incur significant additional costs and expenses through the launch of the vehicle. Even with the launchof the SOLO into commercial production, and even if we are able to launch the Tofino or other intended EVs, they might not become commercially successful. If we areto ever achieve profitability, we must have a successful commercial introduction and acceptance of our vehicles, which may not occur. We expect that our operatinglosses will increase substantially in 2022 and thereafter, and we also expect to continue to incur operating losses and to experience negative cash flows for the nextseveral years.
We expect the rate at which we will incur losses to increase significantly in future periods from current levels as we:
●		design, develop and manufacture our vehicles and their components;
●		develop and equip our manufacturing facility;
●		build up inventories of parts and components for the SOLO, the Tofino and other intended EVs;
●		open ElectraMeccanica stores;
●		expand our design, development, maintenance and repair capabilities;
●		develop and increase our sales and marketing activities; and
●		develop and increase our general and administrative functions to support our growing operations.
Because we will incur the costs and expenses from these efforts before we receive any revenues with respect thereto, our losses in future periods will be significantlygreater than the losses we would incur if we developed the business more slowly. In addition, we may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currentlyanticipate or that these efforts may not result in profits or even revenues, which would further increase our losses.
Our ability to achieve profitability will depend, in part, on our ability to materially reduce the bill of materials and per unit manufacturing cost of our products.
We anticipate that the gross profit generated from the sale of the SOLO will not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses for the foreseeable future. To achieve ouroperating and strategic goals while remaining competitive, we will, among other things, need to reduce the bill of materials and the per-unit manufacturing cost of theSOLO. We expect the primary factors to contribute to a reduced bill of materials and per unit manufacturing cost to include:
●		continued product development to make the SOLO easier and cheaper to mass produce commercially;
●		our ability to utilize less expensive suppliers and components that meet the requirements for the SOLO;
	6

Table of Contents
●		increasing the volume of components that we purchase in order to take advantage of volume-based pricing discounts;
●		improving assembly efficiency;
●		enhancing the automation of our strategic manufacturing partner’s facility to increase volume and reduce labour costs; and
●		increasing our volume to leverage manufacturing overhead costs.
Continued product development is subject to feasibility and engineering risks. Any increase in manufacturing volumes is dependent upon a corresponding increase insales. The occurrence of one or more factors that negatively impact the manufacturing or sales of the SOLO, or reduce our manufacturing efficiency, may prevent us fromachieving our desired reduction in manufacturing costs, which would negatively affect our operating results and may prevent us from attaining profitability.
We currently have negative operating cash flows, and if we are unable to generate positive operating cash flows in the future our viability as an operating businesswill be adversely affected.
We have made significant up-front investments in research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses to rapidly develop and expandour business. We are currently incurring expenditures related to our operations that have generated a negative operating cash flow. Operating cash flow may decline incertain circumstances, many of which are beyond our control. We might not generate sufficient revenues in the near future. Because we continue to incur such significantfuture expenditures for research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses, we may continue to experience negative cash flow untilwe reach a sufficient level of sales with positive gross margins to cover operating expenses. An inability to generate positive cash flow until we reach a sufficient level ofsales with positive gross margins to cover operating expenses or raise additional capital on reasonable terms will adversely affect our viability as an operating business.
We may require additional capital to carry out our proposed business plan for the next 12 months if our cash on hand and revenues from the sale of our vehicles arenot sufficient to cover our cash requirements.
If our cash on hand, revenue from the sale of our vehicles, if any, and cash received upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, if any are exercised, are not sufficient tocover our cash requirements, we will need to raise additional funds through the sale of our equity securities, in either private placements or registered offerings and/ordebt instruments. If we are unsuccessful in raising enough funds through such capital-raising efforts we may review other financing possibilities such as bank loans.Financing might not be available to us or, if available, may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us.
Our ability to obtain the necessary financing to carry out our business plan is subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and investor acceptanceof our business plan. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of such financing unattractive or unavailable to us. If we are unable to raisesufficient funds, we will have to significantly reduce our spending, delay or cancel our planned activities or substantially change our current corporate structure. Wemight not be able to obtain any funding, and we might not have sufficient resources to conduct our business as projected, both of which could mean that we would beforced to curtail or discontinue our operations.
Terms of future financings may adversely impact your investment.
We may have to engage in common equity, debt or preferred stock financing in the future. Your rights and the value of your investment in our securities could bereduced. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impacts operating results. Preferred stock could be issued in series from time to time with suchdesignation, rights, preferences and limitations as needed to raise capital. The terms of preferred stock could be more advantageous to those investors than to the holdersof common shares. In addition, if we need to raise equity capital from the sale of common shares, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, andpossibly more, favorable than the terms of your investment. Common shares which we sell could be sold into any market which develops, which could adversely affectthe market price.

Our future growth depends upon consumers’ willingness to adopt three-wheeled single-seat electric vehicles.
Our growth highly depends upon the adoption by consumers of, and we are subject to an elevated risk of, any reduced demand for alternative fuel vehicles in general andelectric vehicles in particular. If the market for three-wheeled single seat electric vehicles does not develop as we expect, or develops more slowly than we expect, ourbusiness, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be negatively impacted. The market for alternative fuel vehicles is relatively new, rapidly evolving,characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicleannouncements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the adoption of alternative fuel vehicles, and specifically electric vehicles,include:
●		perceptions about electric vehicle quality, safety (in particular with respect to lithium-ion battery packs), design, performance and cost, especially if adverseevents or accidents occur that are linked to the quality or safety of electric vehicles;
●		perceptions about vehicle safety in general and, in particular, safety issues that may be attributed to the use of advanced technology, including vehicleelectronics and braking systems;
●		the limited range over which electric vehicles may be driven on a single battery charge;
●		the decline of an electric vehicle’s range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge;
●		concerns about electric grid capacity and reliability, which could derail our efforts to promote electric vehicles as a practical solution to vehicles which requiregasoline;
●		the availability of alternative fuel vehicles, including plug-in hybrid electric vehicles;
●		improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine;
●		the availability of service for electric vehicles;
●		the environmental consciousness of consumers;
●		volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline;
●		government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy;
●		access to charging stations, standardization of electric vehicle charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an electricvehicle;
●		the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate electric vehicles or future regulation requiring increased use of nonpollutingvehicles; and
●		perceptions about and the actual cost of alternative fuel.
The influence of any of the factors described above may cause current or potential customers not to purchase our electric vehicles, which would materially adverselyaffect our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.
The range of our electric vehicles on a single charge declines over time which may negatively influence potential customers’ decisions whether to purchase ourvehicles.
The range of our electric vehicles on a single charge declines principally as a function of usage, time and charging patterns. For example, a customer’s use of their vehicleas well as the frequency with which they charge the battery of their vehicle can result in additional deterioration of the battery’s ability to hold a charge. We currentlyexpect our battery pack will retain approximately 70% of its ability to hold its initial charge after five years or 45,000 miles, whichever comes first. Such batterydeterioration and the related decrease in range may negatively influence potential customer decisions whether to purchase our vehicles, which may harm our ability tomarket and sell our vehicles.

Significant developments in alternative technologies, such as advanced diesel, ethanol, fuel cells or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of theinternal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects in ways we do not currently anticipate. For example, fuel which is abundantand relatively inexpensive in North America, such as compressed natural gas, may emerge as consumers’ preferred alternative to petroleum-based propulsion. Anyfailure by us to develop new or enhanced technologies or processes, or to react to changes in existing technologies, could materially delay our development andintroduction of new and enhanced electric vehicles, which could result in the loss of competitiveness of our vehicles, decreased revenue and a loss of market share tocompetitors.
If we are unable to keep up with advances in electric vehicle technology, we may suffer a decline in our competitive position.
We may be unable to keep up with changes in electric vehicle technology and, as a result, may suffer a decline in our competitive position. Any failure to keep up withadvances in electric vehicle technology would result in a decline in our competitive position which would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects,operating results and financial condition. Our research and development efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in electric vehicle technology. As technologieschange, we plan to upgrade or adapt our vehicles and introduce new models to continue to provide vehicles with the latest technology, in particular battery celltechnology. However, our vehicles may not compete effectively with alternative vehicles if we are not able to source and integrate the latest technology into our vehicles.For example, we do not manufacture battery cells which makes us depend upon other suppliers of battery cell technology for our battery packs.
If we are unable to design, develop, market and sell new electric vehicles and services that address additional market opportunities, our business, prospects andoperating results will suffer.
We may not be able to successfully develop new electric vehicles and services, address new market segments or develop a significantly broader customer base. To date,we have focused our business on the sale of the SOLO, a three-wheeled single seat electric vehicle, and have targeted mainly urban residents of modest means and fleets.We will need to address additional markets and expand our customer demographic to further grow our business. Our failure to address additional market opportunitieswould harm our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.
Demand in the vehicle industry is highly volatile.
Volatility of demand in the vehicle industry may materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. The markets in whichwe will be competing have been subject to considerable volatility in demand in recent periods. Demand for automobile sales depends to a large extent on general,economic, political and social conditions in a given market and the introduction of new vehicles and technologies. As a new start-up manufacturer, we will have fewerfinancial resources than more established vehicle manufacturers to withstand changes in the market and disruptions in demand.

We depend on a third-party for our near-term manufacturing needs.
In October 2017, we entered into a Manufacturing Agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) with Chongqing Zongshen Automobile Industry Co., Ltd. (“Zongshen”),a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zongshen Industrial Group Co. Ltd., an affiliate of Zongshen Power Machinery Co., Ltd., located in Chongqing, China, which has nowbeen amended on June 23, 2021. The delivery of SOLO vehicles to our future customers and the revenue derived therefrom depends on Zongshen’s ability to fulfil itsobligations under that Manufacturing Agreement. Zongshen’s ability to fulfil its obligations is outside of our control and depends on a variety of factors, includingZongshen’s operations, Zongshen’s financial condition and geopolitical and economic risks that could affect China. Our Manufacturing Agreement with Zongshenprovides that non-performance by either us or Zongshen shall be excused to the extent that such performance is rendered impossible by strike, fire, flood, earthquake orgovernmental acts, orders or restrictions; provided that either we or Zongshen, as applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of such non-performance. Notwithstanding any such efforts, any such non-performance by either us or Zongshen shall be cause for termination of the Manufacturing Agreement bythe other party if the non-performance continues for more than six months. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic or measures taken by the Chinese governmentrelating thereto may result in non-performance by Zongshen under our Manufacturing Agreement. If Zongshen is unable to fulfil its obligations or is only able to partiallyfulfil its obligations under our existing Manufacturing Agreement with them, or if Zongshen either voluntarily or is forced to terminate our agreement with them, eitheras a result of the coronavirus outbreak, the Chinese government’s measures relating thereto, or otherwise, we will not be able to produce or sell our SOLO vehicle in thevolumes anticipated and on the timetable that we anticipate, if at all.
The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which Chinese companies conduct their business activities. China is experiencing substantialproblems with environmental pollution and energy consumption. Efforts by the Chinese government to control pollution and energy consumption are making it harder forChinese factories to operate. Our Chinese manufacturers are subject to multiple laws governing environmental protection, as well as standards set by the relevantgovernmental authorities. It is possible that Chinese national, provincial and local governmental agencies will adopt stricter environmental and consumption controls.There can be no assurance that future changes in Chinese laws and regulations will not impose costly compliance requirements on our Chinese manufacturers orotherwise adversely affect their business activities, which in turn could increase the costs associated with operating our business or otherwise adversely affect ourfinancial condition and operating results.
The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on the global economy and our operations remains uncertain, which could have a material adverseimpact on our business, results of operations and financial condition and on the market price of our common shares.
In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (now commonly known as COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spreadrapidly throughout many countries and, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate thespread of COVID-19, many countries, including the United States, Canada and China, have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, and there have been businessclosures and a substantial reduction in economic activity in countries that have had significant outbreaks of COVID-19. Although our manufacturing partner, Zongshen,reports that its operations have not been materially affected at this point, significant uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our andZongshen’s operations (including, without limitation, staffing levels), supply chains for parts and sales channels for our products, and on the global economy as a whole.It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to prior levels. The COVID-19 pandemichas resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty in recent weeks. A continuation or worsening of the levels of market disruption and volatility seen inthe recent past could have an adverse effect on our ability to access capital, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and on the market price of ourcommon shares.
We do not currently have all arrangements in place that are required to allow us to fully execute our business plan.
To sell our vehicles as envisioned we will need to enter into certain additional agreements and arrangements that are not currently in place. These include entering intoagreements with distributors, arranging for the transportation of the commercially-produced SOLOs to be delivered pursuant to our Manufacturing Agreement withZongshen and obtaining battery and other essential supplies in the quantities that we require. If we are unable to enter into such agreements, or are only able to do so onterms that are unfavorable to us, we may not be able to fully carry out our business plans.

We depend on certain key personnel, and our success will depend on our continued ability to retain and attract such qualified personnel.
Our success depends on the efforts, abilities and continued service of Kevin Pavlov, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, Bal Bhullar, our ChiefFinancial Officer, Kim Brink, our Chief Revenue Officer and Isaac Moss, our Chief Administrative Officer and Corporate Secretary. A number of these key employeesand consultants have significant experience in the automobile manufacturing and technology industries. A loss of service from any one of these individuals mayadversely affect our operations, and we may have difficulty or may not be able to locate and hire suitable replacements. We have obtained “key person” insurance oncertain key personnel.
Since we have little experience in mass-producing electric vehicles, any delays or difficulties in transitioning from producing custom vehicles to mass-producingvehicles may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and operating results.
Our management team has experience in producing custom designed vehicles and is now switching focus to mass producing electric vehicles in a rapidly evolving andcompetitive market. If we are unable to implement our business plans in the timeframe estimated by management and successfully transition into a mass-producingelectric vehicle manufacturing business, then our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition will be negatively impacted and our ability to grow ourbusiness will be harmed.
We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws and any breach of such laws may have a material adverse effect on our business andoperating results.
We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws, including statutes, regulations, bylaws and other legal requirements. These laws relate to thegeneration, use, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of regulated substances, including hazardous substances (such as batteries), dangerous goods and waste,emissions or discharges into soil, water and air, including noise and odors (which could result in remediation obligations), and occupational health and safety matters,including indoor air quality. These legal requirements vary by location and can arise under federal, provincial, state or municipal laws. Any breach of such laws and/orrequirements would have a material adverse effect on our Company and its operating results.
Our vehicles are subject to motor vehicle standards and the failure to satisfy such mandated safety standards would have a material adverse effect on our businessand operating results.
All vehicles sold must comply with federal, state and provincial motor vehicle safety standards. In both Canada and the United States vehicles that meet or exceed allfederally mandated safety standards are certified under the federal regulations. In this regard, Canadian and U.S. motor vehicle safety standards are substantially thesame. Rigorous testing and the use of approved materials and equipment are among the requirements for achieving federal certification. Failure by us to have the SOLO,the Tofino or any future model EV satisfy motor vehicle standards would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.
If we are unable to reduce and adequately control the costs associated with operating our business, including costs associated with manufacturing, sales, materials,transportation and logistics, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will suffer.
If we are unable to reduce and/or maintain a sufficiently low level of costs for designing, manufacturing, marketing, selling, transporting, distributing and servicing ourelectric vehicles relative to their selling prices, or if we experience significant increases in these costs and are unable to raise our prices to offset such increases, ouroperating results, gross margins, business and prospects could be materially and adversely impacted. Further, since our preorder vehicles are at fixed sales prices, if weexperience significant increases in costs associated with operating our business, our profitability from these pre-order vehicles may be negatively impacted absent theflexibility to increase such sales prices.

If our vehicles fail to perform as expected, our ability to develop, market and sell our electric vehicles could be harmed.
Our vehicles may contain defects in design and manufacture that may cause them not to perform as expected or that may require repair. For example, our vehicles use asubstantial amount of software code to operate. Software products are inherently complex and often contain defects and errors when first introduced. While we haveperformed extensive internal testing, we currently have a very limited frame of reference by which to evaluate the performance of our SOLO in the hands of ourcustomers and currently have no frame of reference by which to evaluate the performance of our vehicles after several years of customer driving. With the e-Roadster, weare in the prototype phase, and with the Tofino, we are still in early design development phase, whereby the similar evaluations are further behind.
We have very limited experience servicing our vehicles. If we are unable to address the service and warranty requirements of our future customers our business willbe materially and adversely affected.
If we are unable to successfully address the service requirements of our future customers our business and prospects will be materially and adversely affected. Inaddition, we anticipate the level and quality of the service we will provide our customers will have a direct impact on the success of our future vehicles. If we are unableto satisfactorily service our customers, our ability to generate customer loyalty, grow our business and sell additional vehicles could be impaired.
We have very limited experience servicing our vehicles. We have begun production of the SOLO vehicles and began deliveries during the last quarter of 2021. The totalnumber of production SOLOs that we have produced as at December 31, 2021 is 291. The total number of SOLOs that we have produced as pre-production as ofDecember 31, 2021 is 124 (64 from Canada and 60 from Zongshen). Throughout its history, our subsidiary, Intermeccanica International Inc. (“InterMeccanica”), hasproduced approximately 2,500 cars, which include providing after sales support and servicing. We only have limited experience servicing the SOLO as a limited numberof SOLOs have been produced. Servicing electric vehicles on a mass scale is different than servicing electric vehicles and vehicles with internal combustion engines andrequires specialized skills, including high voltage training and servicing techniques on a mass scale. On October 14, 2021, we announced our strategic agreement withRobert Bosch LLC (“Bosch”) to establish a service network of independent automobile repair shops approved by Bosch (the “Bosch Car Service Network”). The BoschCar Service Network will support service and maintenance operations for ElectraMeccanica’s flagship SOLO EV beginning with commercial launch locations throughoutthe western United States and then expanding throughout the rest of the United States.
In addition, we presently expect that our warranty covering the SOLO will cover three years/36,000 miles and that the battery pack will cover a five year/45,000 mileswarranty period. For additional information on the warranty information please visit https://www.electrameccanica.com/warranty/.
We may not succeed in establishing, maintaining and strengthening the ElectraMeccanica brand, which would materially and adversely affect customer acceptanceof our vehicles and components and our business, revenues and prospects.
Our business and prospects heavily depend on our ability to develop, maintain and strengthen the ElectraMeccanica brand. Any failure to develop, maintain andstrengthen our brand may materially and adversely affect our ability to sell our planned electric vehicles. If we are not able to establish, maintain and strengthen ourbrand, we may lose the opportunity to build a critical mass of customers. Promoting and positioning our brand will likely depend significantly on our ability to providehigh quality electric vehicles and maintenance and repair services, and we have very limited experience in these areas. In addition, we expect that our ability to develop,maintain and strengthen the ElectraMeccanica brand will also depend heavily on the success of our marketing efforts. To date, we have limited experience with marketingactivities as we have relied primarily on the internet, word of mouth and attendance at industry trade shows to promote our brand. To further promote our brand, we maybe required to change our marketing practices, which could result in substantially increased advertising expenses, including the need to use traditional media such astelevision, radio and print. The automobile industry is intensely competitive, and we may not be successful in building, maintaining and strengthening our brand. Manyof our current and potential competitors, particularly automobile manufacturers headquartered in Detroit, Japan and the European Union, have greater name recognition,broader customer relationships and substantially greater marketing resources than we do. If we do not develop and maintain a strong brand, our business, prospects,financial condition and operating results will be materially and adversely impacted.

Increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of raw materials, in particular lithium-ion cells, could harm our business.
We may experience increases in the cost or a sustained interruption in the supply or shortage of raw materials. Any such increase or supply interruption could materiallynegatively impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. We use various raw materials in our business, including aluminum, steel, carbon fiberand non-ferrous metals such as copper and cobalt. The prices for these raw materials fluctuate depending on market conditions and global demand for these materials andcould adversely affect our business and operating results. For instance, we are exposed to multiple risks relating to price fluctuations for lithium-ion cells. These risksinclude:
●		the inability or unwillingness of current battery manufacturers to build or operate battery cell manufacturing plants to supply the numbers of lithium-ion cellsrequired to support the growth of the electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle industry as demand for such cells increases;
●		disruption in the supply of cells due to quality issues or recalls by the battery cell manufacturers; and
●		an increase in the cost of raw materials, such as cobalt, used in lithium-ion cells.
Our business depends on the continued supply of battery cells for our vehicles. We do not currently have any agreements for the supply of batteries and depend upon theopen market for their procurement. Any disruption in the supply of battery cells from our supplier could temporarily disrupt the planned production of our vehicles untilsuch time as a different supplier is fully qualified. Moreover, battery cell manufacturers may choose to refuse to supply electric vehicle manufacturers to the extent theydetermine that the vehicles are not sufficiently safe. Furthermore, current fluctuations or shortages in petroleum and other economic conditions may cause us toexperience significant increases in freight charges and raw material costs. Substantial increases in the prices for our raw materials would increase our operating costs, andcould reduce our margins if we cannot recoup the increased costs through increased electric vehicle prices. We might not be able to recoup increasing costs of rawmaterials by increasing vehicle prices. We have set up sales price for the base model of our SOLO to be $18,500 and we have also already announced an estimated pricefor the base model of our SOLO Cargo, eRoadster and the Tofino. However, any attempts to increase the announced or expected prices in response to increased rawmaterial costs could be viewed negatively by our potential customers, result in cancellations of SOLO, eRoadster and Tofino reservations and could materially adverselyaffect our brand, image, business, prospects and operating results.
We rely upon independent third-party transportation providers for our vehicle shipments and are subject to increased shipping costs as well as the potential inabilityof our third-party transportation providers to deliver on a timely basis.
We currently rely upon independent third-party transportation providers for our vehicle shipments. Our utilization of these delivery services for shipments is subject torisks which may impact a shipping company's ability to provide delivery services that adequately meet our shipping needs, including risks related to employee strikes,labor and capacity constraints, and inclement weather. In addition, we are subject to increased shipping costs when fuel prices increase and due to other economic factorsaffecting supply and demand within the transportation industry. If we change the shipping companies we use, we could face logistical difficulties that could adverselyaffect deliveries, and we would incur costs and expend resources in connection with such change. Moreover, we may not be able to obtain terms as favorable as thosereceived from our current independent third-party transportation providers which, in turn, would increase our costs and may impact our overall profitability.
The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,operating results and prospects.
Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives that are offered to purchasers of EVs or persons installinghome charging stations, the reduced need for such subsidies and incentives due to the perceived success of the electric vehicle, fiscal tightening or other reasons mayresult in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel vehicle industry generally or our electric vehicles in particular. This could materially and adversely affectthe growth of the alternative fuel automobile markets and our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

If we fail to manage future growth effectively, we may not be able to market and sell our vehicles successfully.
Any failure to manage our growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. We plan to expandour operations in the near future in connection with the planned production of our vehicles. On March 16, 2021, the Company announced that it has selected Mesa, AZ,in the greater Phoenix area, for its U.S. based assembly facility and engineering technical center. The proposed facility in Mesa will support the Company’s strategic planto meet anticipated demand for its flagship SOLO EV and other intended EVs. Our future operating results depend to a large extent on our ability to manage thisexpansion and growth successfully. Risks that we face in undertaking this expansion include:
●		training new personnel;
●		forecasting production and revenue;
●		controlling expenses and investments in anticipation of expanded operations;
●		establishing or expanding design, manufacturing, sales and service facilities;
●		implementing and enhancing administrative infrastructure, systems and processes;
●		addressing new markets; and
●		establishing international operations.
We intend to continue to hire a number of additional personnel, including design and manufacturing personnel and service technicians, for our electric vehicles.Competition for individuals with experience in designing, manufacturing and servicing electric vehicles is intense, and we may not be able to attract, assimilate, train orretain additional highly qualified personnel in the future. The failure to attract, integrate, train, motivate and retain these additional employees could seriously harm ourbusiness and prospects.
Our business may be adversely affected by labor and union activities.
Although none of our employees are currently represented by a labor union, it is common throughout the automobile industry generally for many employees atautomobile companies to belong to a union, which can result in higher employee costs and increased risk of work stoppages. We have a Manufacturing Agreement withZongshen to produce SOLO vehicles. Zongshen’s workforce is not currently unionized, though they may become so in the future or industrial stoppages could occur inthe absence of a union. We also directly and indirectly depend upon other companies with unionized work forces, such as parts suppliers and trucking and freightcompanies, and work stoppages or strikes organized by such unions could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or operating results. If awork stoppage occurs within our business, or that of Zongshen or our key suppliers, it could delay the manufacture and sale of our electric vehicles and have a materialadverse effect on our business, prospects, operating results or financial condition. Additionally, if we expand our business to include full in-house manufacturing of ourvehicles, our employees might join or form a labor union and we may be required to become a union signatory.
We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure againstsuch claims.
We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. The automobile industryexperiences significant product liability claims and we face inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our vehicles do not perform as expected or malfunctionresulting in personal injury or death. Our risks in this area are particularly pronounced given we have limited field experience of our vehicles. A successful productliability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about ourvehicles and business and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future vehicle candidates which would have a material adverse effect on our brand, business,prospects and operating results. We plan to maintain product liability insurance for all our vehicles on a claims-made basis, but any such insurance might not be sufficientto cover all potential product liability claims. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages either in excess of our coverage or outside of our coverage may have amaterial adverse effect on our reputation, business and financial condition. We may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commerciallyacceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if we do face liability for our products and are forced to make a claim under our policy.

Our patent applications may not result in issued patents, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from interfering with ourcommercialization of our products.
The registration and enforcement of patents involves complex legal and factual questions and the breadth and effectiveness of patented claims is uncertain. We cannot becertain that we are the first to file patent applications on these inventions, nor can we be certain that our pending patent applications will result in issued patents or thatany of our issued patents will afford sufficient protection against someone creating competing products, or as a defensive portfolio against a competitor who claims thatwe are infringing its patents. In addition, patent applications filed in foreign countries are subject to laws, rules and procedures that differ from those of the United States,and thus we cannot be certain that foreign patent applications, if any, will result in issued patents in those foreign jurisdictions or that such patents can be effectivelyenforced, even if they relate to patents issued in the United States.
We may need to defend ourselves against patent or trademark infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs.
Companies, organizations or individuals, including our competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit orinterfere with our ability to make, use, develop, sell or market our vehicles or components, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From timeto time we may receive communications from third parties that allege our products are covered by their patents or trademarks or other intellectual property rights.Companies holding patents or other intellectual property rights may bring suits alleging infringement of such rights or otherwise assert their rights. If we are determinedto have infringed upon a third party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to do things that include one or more of the following:
●		cease making, using, selling or offering to sell processes, goods or services that incorporate or use the third-party intellectual property;
●		pay substantial damages;
●		seek a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or at all;
●		redesign our vehicles or other goods or services to avoid infringing the third-party intellectual property; or
●		establish and maintain alternative branding for our products and services.
In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us and our failure or inability to obtain a license to the infringed technology or other intellectual property right,our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, couldresult in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.
You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the US federal courts may be limited because we areincorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, a substantial portion of our assets are in Canada and some of our executive officers and directorsreside outside the United States.
We are organized pursuant to the laws of the Province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), as amended (the “BusinessCorporations Act”). Two of our four officers, our auditor and all but four of our directors reside outside the United States. In addition, a substantial portion of their assetsand our assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, you may have difficulty serving legal process within the United States upon us or any of these persons.You may also have difficulty enforcing, both in and outside of the United States, judgments you may obtain in U.S. courts against us or these persons in any action,including actions based upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal or state securities laws. Furthermore, there is substantial doubt as to the enforceability in Canadaagainst us or against any of our directors, officers and any experts named in this Annual Report who are not residents of the United States, in original actions or in actionsfor enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of liabilities based solely upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, shareholders inBritish Columbia companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in U.S. federal courts. As a result, our public shareholders may have moredifficulty in protecting their interests through actions against us, our management, our directors or our major shareholders than would shareholders of a corporationincorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States.

Global economic conditions could materially adversely impact demand for our products and services.
Our operations and performance depend significantly on economic conditions. Uncertainty about global economic conditions could result in customers postponingpurchases of our products and services in response to tighter credit, unemployment, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values and othermacroeconomic factors, which could have a material negative effect on demand for our products and services and, accordingly, on our business, results of operations orfinancial condition.
We are vulnerable to a growing trade dispute between the United States and China
A growing trade dispute between the United States and China could increase the proposed sales price of our products or decrease our profits, if any. In June 2018, theprevious U.S. administration imposed tariffs on $34 billion of Chinese exports, including a 25% duty on vehicles built in China and shipped to the United States.Following the imposition of these tariffs, China has imposed additional tariffs on U.S. goods manufactured in the United States and exported to China. Subsequently, theU.S. administration indicated that it may impose tariffs on up to $500 billion on goods manufactured in China and imported into the United States. These tariffs mayescalate a nascent trade war between China and the United States. This trade conflict could affect our business because we intend to mass produce the SOLO in Chinaand our intended principal market is the west coast of North America. If a trade war were to escalate, or if tariffs were imposed on any of our products, we could beforced to increase the proposed sales price of such products or reduce the margins, if any, on such products.
Recently, U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled that the SOLO has a classification under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States that applies topassenger vehicles for less than 10 people with only electric motors. The total applicable duty for this classification was recently raised to 27.5% (2.5% is a “most-favored-nation” tariff for this classification and 25% derives from this classification being on the China 301 List 1). The suggested retail purchase price for our SOLO isU.S.$18,500. As the landscape for tariffs involving imports to the United States from the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) has been changing over the past yearand may change again, we have not determined how to adjust the purchase price in the United States in response to the recent tariff increase.
On January 15, 2020, the United States and the PRC signed the Phase 1 Trade Agreement which came into force on February 14, 2020. Notwithstanding the coming intoforce of the Phase 1 Trade Agreement, the United States will maintain its tariffs on vehicles built in China and shipped to the United States.
Uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of Chinese laws and regulations could limit the legal protections available to you and us.
The legal system in the PRC is based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which legal cases have limited value as precedents. In the late1970s the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislationover the past three decades has significantly increased the protections afforded to various production services in the PRC. Zongshen, our manufacturing partner, is subjectto various PRC laws and regulations generally applicable to companies in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal systemcontinues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involveuncertainties.
From time to time we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights or Zongshen may have to resort to administrative and courtproceedings to fulfill its obligations under the Manufacturing Agreement. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion ininterpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level oflegal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some ofwhich are not published in a timely manner or at all) that may have retroactive effect. As a result, we or Zongshen may not be aware of our violation of these policies andrules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property)and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China, could materially and adversely affect our business and impede ourability to continue our operations.

Risks Related to Our Common Shares
Our executive officers and directors beneficially own approximately 9.8% of our common shares.
As of March 22, 2022, our executive officers and directors beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 9.8% of our common shares, which includes shares thatour executive officers and directors have the right to acquire pursuant to warrants, stock options, restricted stock units (“RSU”s) and deferred stock units (“DSU”s) whichhave vested. As a result, they will be able to exercise a significant level of control over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors,amendments to our Articles and approval of significant corporate transactions. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of ourCompany or changes in management and will make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without the support of these shareholders.
The continued sale of our equity securities will dilute the ownership percentage of our existing shareholders and may decrease the market price for our commonshares.
Our Notice of Articles authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of common shares and the issuance of preferred shares. Our Board of Directors has the authority toissue additional shares of our capital stock to provide additional financing in the future and designate the rights of the preferred shares, which may include voting,dividend, distribution or other rights that are preferential to those held by the common shareholders. The issuance of any such common or preferred shares may result in areduction of the book value or market price, if one exists at the time, of our outstanding common shares. Given our lack of revenues, we will likely have to issueadditional equity securities to obtain working capital we require for the next 12 months. Our efforts to fund our intended business plans will therefore result in dilution toour existing shareholders. If we do issue any such additional common shares, such issuance also will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting powerof all other shareholders. As a result of such dilution, if you acquire common shares your proportionate ownership interest and voting power could be decreased.Furthermore, any such issuances could result in a change of control or a reduction in the market price for our common shares.
Additionally, we had 11,274,981 stock options and 7,252,021 warrants outstanding as of March 22, 2022. The exercise price of some of these options and warrants isbelow our current market price, and you could purchase shares in the market at a price in excess of the exercise price of our outstanding warrants or options. If theholders of these options and warrants elect to exercise them, your ownership position will be diluted and the per share value of the common shares you have or acquirecould be diluted as well. As a result, the market value of our common shares could significantly decrease as well.
Issuances of our preferred stock may adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common shares and reduce the value of our common shares.
Our Notice of Articles authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of preferred stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority to create one or more series ofpreferred stock and, without shareholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with rights superior to the rights of the holders of common shares. As a result, shares ofpreferred stock could be issued quickly and easily, adversely affecting the rights of holder of common shares and could be issued with terms calculated to delay orprevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult. Although we currently have no plans to create any series of preferred stock and have nopresent plans to issue any shares of preferred stock, any creation and issuance of preferred stock in the future could adversely affect the rights of the holders of commonshares and reduce the value of our common shares.
The market price of our common shares may be volatile and may fluctuate in a way that is disproportionate to our operating performance.
Our common shares began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) in August 2018, and before that it had been trading on the OTCQB starting in September2017. The historical volume of trading has been low (within the past fiscal year, the fewest number of our shares that were traded on Nasdaq was 1,325,395 shares daily),and the share price has fluctuated significantly (since trading began on Nasdaq our closing price has been as low as U.S.$0.91 and as high as U.S.$10.81). The share pricefor our common shares could decline due to the impact of any of the following factors:
●		sales or potential sales of substantial amounts of our common shares;
●		announcements about us or about our competitors;
	17

Table of Contents
●		litigation and other developments relating to our patents or other proprietary rights or those of our competitors;
●		conditions in the automobile industry;
●		governmental regulation and legislation;
●		variations in our anticipated or actual operating results;
●		change in securities analysts’ estimates of our performance, or our failure to meet analysts’ expectations;
●		change in general economic trends; and
●		investor perception of our industry or our prospects.
Many of these factors are beyond our control. The stock markets in general, and the market for automobile companies in particular, have historically experienced extremeprice and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. These broad marketand industry factors could reduce the market price of our common shares regardless of our actual operating performance.
We do not intend to pay dividends and there will thus be fewer ways in which you are able to make a gain on your investment.
We have never paid any cash or stock dividends and we do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that we require additional fundingcurrently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may prohibit the payment of any dividends. Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gainon your investment will need to result from an appreciation in the price of our common shares. There will therefore be fewer ways in which you are able to make a gainon your investment.
FINRA sales practice requirements may limit your ability to buy and sell our common shares, which could depress the price of our shares.
Financial Industry Regulation Authority (“FINRA”) rules require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customerbefore recommending that investment to the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers mustmake reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status and investment objectives, among other things. Under interpretations ofthese rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRArequirements may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common shares, which may limit your ability to buy and sell ourcommon shares, have an adverse effect on the market for our common shares and, thereby, depress their market prices.
Our common shares have been thinly traded, and you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your common shares to raise money orotherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
From October 2017 until August 2018, our common shares were quoted on the OTCQB where they were “thinly-traded”, meaning that the number of persons interestedin purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time was relatively small or non-existent. Since we listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market in August2018, the volume of our common shares traded has increased, but that volume could decrease until we are thinly-traded again. That could occur due to a number offactors, including that we are relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate orinfluence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and might be reluctant to follow an unproven company suchas ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our common shares until such time as we became more seasoned. As a consequence, there may be periods of severaldays or more when trading activity in our common shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of tradingactivity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. Broad or active public trading market for our common shares may notdevelop or be sustained.

Volatility in our common shares or warrant price may subject us to securities litigation.
The market for our common shares may have, when compared to seasoned issuers, significant price volatility, and we expect that our share or warrant prices maycontinue to be more volatile than that of a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against acompany following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result insubstantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.
We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and as such we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to UnitedStates domestic public companies.
We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act. As such, we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to United Statesdomestic public companies. For example:
●		we are not required to provide as many Exchange Act reports, or as frequently, as a domestic public company;
●		for interim reporting we are permitted to comply solely with our home country requirements, which are less rigorous than the rules that apply to domestic publiccompanies;
●		we are not required to provide the same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation;
●		we are exempt from provisions of Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information;
●		we are not required to comply with the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a securityregistered under the Exchange Act; and
●		we are not required to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities andestablishing insider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction.
Our shareholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important and are accustomed to receive from U.S. reporting companies.
As an “emerging growth company” under applicable law, we will be subject to lessened disclosure requirements. Such reduced disclosure may make our commonshares less attractive to investors.
For as long as we remain an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the JOBS Act, we will elect to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reportingrequirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” and including, but not limited to, not being required to comply withthe auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports,exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments notpreviously approved. Because of these lessened regulatory requirements, our shareholders would be left without information or rights available to shareholders of moremature companies. If some investors find our common shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for such securities and their marketprices may be more volatile.

We incur significant costs as a result of being a public company, which costs will grow after we cease to qualify as an “emerging growth company.”
We incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses as a public company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and theNasdaq Capital Market, impose various requirements on the corporate governance practices of public companies. We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined inthe JOBS Act, and will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of : (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following February 10, 2022, (b) in which we havetotal annual gross revenue of at least U.S.$1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common sharesthat is held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the prior June 30th; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than U.S.$1.0 billion in non-convertibledebt during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act inthe assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting and permission to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards untilsuch time as those standards apply to private companies.
Compliance with these rules and regulations increases our legal and financial compliance costs and makes some corporate activities more time-consuming and costlier.After we are no longer an emerging growth company, we expect to incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance withthe requirements of Section 404 and the other rules and regulations of the SEC. For example, as a public company we have been required to increase the number ofindependent directors and adopt policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. We have incurred additional costs in obtaining director andofficer liability insurance. In addition, we incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. It may also be more difficult for us to findqualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules andregulations, and we cannot predict or estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

B. Business Overview
General
We are a development-stage electric vehicle, or EV, designer and manufacturer company located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Our initial product line targetsurban commuters, commercial fleets/deliveries and shared mobility seeking to commute in an efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner.
Our first flagship EV is the SOLO, a single seat vehicle, of which we have built 64 prototype vehicles in-house as of December 31, 2021 and 60 pre-production vehicleswith our manufacturing partner, Zongshen. We have used some of these pre-mass production vehicles as prototypes and for certification purposes, have delivered some tocustomers and have used others as test drive models in our showroom. We believe our schedule to mass produce EVs, combined with our subsidiary, InterMeccanica’s,62-year history of automotive design, manufacturing and deliveries of motor vehicles to customers, significantly differentiates us from other early and development stageEV companies.
We launched commercial production of our SOLO on August 26, 2020. For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, we have produced 109 SOLOs for a total of 291SOLOs since we launched production. We currently have 20 retail stores located in the States of California, Arizona, Oregon, Washington and Colorado. Deliveries willbe made to key markets along the U.S. west coast as the Company continues to expand. The Company commenced deliveries on October 4, 2021, to initial customers andcommercial fleets.
On September 16, 2020, we announced plans to produce an alternative “cargo and fleet” version of our flagship SOLO EV and debuted the SOLO alternative version atthe ACT Expo in Long Beach on August 31, 2021. The Company recently announced its plan to start delivering the SOLO Cargo EV early in the third quarter of 2022.The starting suggested retail price of the SOLO Cargo is U.S.$24,500 with 11.8 cubic feet of storage.
To support our production, in October of 2017 we entered into a Manufacturing Agreement with Zongshen, acting through its wholly-owned subsidiary. Zongshen is anaffiliate of Zongshen Power Machinery Co., Ltd., a large-scale scientific and technical enterprise which designs, develops, manufactures and sells a diverse range ofmotorcycles and motorcycle engines in China. We amended the Manufacturing Agreement in June of 2021 to update certain manufacturing and delivery provisions of thesame. Zongshen has previously purchased common shares and exercised 1,400,000 warrants at CAD$4 to common shares from us, and beneficially owns approximately2.4% of our common shares.
On March 16, 2021, we announced that we had selected Mesa, Arizona, as the site for the establishment of our U.S.-based assembly facility and engineering technicalcenter. On May 12, 2021, we celebrated the official groundbreaking of the assembly facility and engineering technical center. The intended 235,000 square foot facility isto be located on 18 acres of land adjacent to the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway airport. The building is expected to include an assembly and manufacturing plant, a researchcenter, 22,000 square feet of office space and 19,000 square feet of lab space. In this respect we plan to use an asset-light model in the facility’s development, wherebythe building will be leased from the land owner and developer. The building is being designed by the architectural firm, Ware Malcomb, and is being engineered byHunter Engineering with Willmeng Construction acting as the facility’s general contractor. When operational, it is expected that facility will have a production capacityof up to 20,000 vehicles per year and employ upwards of 200 to 500 people. The current completion date is targeted for summer of 2022.
We have another EV candidate in early design development stage, the “Tofino”, an all-electric, two-seater roadster.
We have devoted substantial resources to create an affordable EV which brings significant performance and value to our customers. To this end, the SOLO carries amanufacturer’s suggested retail price of $18,500, prior to any surcharge to cover tariffs (discussed below), and being powered by a high-performance electric rear drivemotor which enables the SOLO to achieve:
●		a top speed of 80 mph and an attainable cruise speed of 68 mph resulting from its lightweight aerospace composite chassis;
●		acceleration from 0 mph to 60 mph in approximately ten seconds; and
●		a range of up to 100 miles generated from a lithium-ion battery system that requires up to four hours of charging time on a 220-volt charging station (up to eighthours from a 110-volt outlet) that utilizes approximately 17.3 kW/h.
	21

Table of Contents
In addition, the SOLO contains a number of standard features found in higher price point vehicles, including:
●		LCD Digital Instrument Cluster;
●		Power Windows, Power Steering and Power Brakes;
●		AM/FM Stereo with Bluetooth/ USB;
●		Rear view backup camera;
●		Air conditioning;
●		Heated seat;
●		Heater and defogger; and
●		Keyless remote entry.
Unique to Canada, the SOLO is under the three-wheeled vehicle category and is subject to the safety standards listed in Schedule III of the Canadian Motor VehicleSafety Regulations. See “Government Regulation” herein.
For sale into the United States, we and our vehicles must meet the applicable provisions of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Title 49 —Transportation.Since the U.S. regulations do not have a specific class for three-wheeled “autocycles”, the SOLO falls under the definition of a motorcycle pursuant to Sec. 571.3 of 49CFR Part 571. However, currently a motorcycle license is not required to drive them in all but the States of Indiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, NewMexico, North Carolina and New York (New York will no longer require a Helmet as of April 20, 2022); Motorcycle helmets must be worn while operating in the Statesof Alaska (when operating without a motorcycle license or endorsement), Nebraska, North Carolina and Oregon. Helmets are also required if the driver is under 18 yearsold in the States of Alaska, Colorado, Indiana, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire and New Mexico. See “Government Regulation” herein.
Potential Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (now commonly known as COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spreadrapidly throughout many countries, and, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate thespread of COVID-19, many countries, including the United States, Canada and China, have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, and there have been businessclosures and a substantial reduction in economic activity in countries that have had significant outbreaks of COVID-19.
Our manufacturing partner, Zongshen, reports that its operations have not been materially affected at this point, and with our partner Zongshen we have begun producingthe SOLO for targeted deliveries to customers during 2021. However, significant uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our andZongshen’s operations, and on the global economy as a whole. Government-imposed restrictions on travel and other “social-distancing” measures, such as restrictions onassemblies of groups of persons, have potential to disrupt supply chains for parts and sales channels for our products, and may result in labor shortages.
It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to prior levels. We will continue tomonitor the COVID-19 situation closely, and intend to follow health and safety guidelines as they evolve.

Potential Impact of Tariffs
A growing trade dispute between the United States and China could increase the proposed sales price of our products or decrease our profits, if any. In June 2018, theprevious U.S. administration imposed tariffs on $34 billion of Chinese exports, including a 25% duty on vehicles built in China and shipped to the United States.Following the imposition of these tariffs, China has imposed additional tariffs on U.S. goods manufactured in the United States and exported to China. Subsequently, theU.S. administration indicated that it may impose tariffs on up to $500 billion of goods manufactured in China and imported into the United States. These tariffs mayescalate a nascent trade war between China and the United States. This trade conflict could affect our business because we intend to mass produce the SOLO in Chinaand our intended principal market is the west coast of North America. If a trade war were to escalate or if tariffs were imposed on any of our products, we could be forcedto increase the proposed sales price of such products or reduce the margins, if any, on such products.
Recently, U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled that the SOLO has a classification under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States that applies topassenger vehicles for less than 10 people with only electric motors. The total applicable duty for this classification was recently raised to 27.5% (2.5% is a “most-favored-nation” tariff for this classification and 25% derives from this classification being on the China 301 List 1). As indicated above, the current base purchase pricefor our SOLO is approximately U.S.$18,500. As the landscape for tariffs involving imports to the United States from the PRC has been changing over the past year andmay change again, we have not determined how to adjust the base purchase price in the United States in response to the recent tariff increase.
On January 15, 2020, the United States and the PRC signed an Economic and Trade Agreement commonly referred to as the Phase 1 Trade Agreement, which enteredinto force on February 14, 2020. Notwithstanding the coming into force of the Phase 1 Trade Agreement, the United States will maintain its tariffs on vehicles built inChina and shipped to the United States.
Corporate Structure and Principal Executive Offices
We were incorporated on February 16, 2015 under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, and have a December 31st fiscal year end. As of March 22, 2022, we had118,611,496 common shares outstanding.
Our principal executive offices are located at 8057 North Fraser Way, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, V5J 5M8. Our telephone number is (604) 428-7656. Ourwebsite address is www.electrameccanica.com. Information on our website does not constitute part of this Annual Report. Our registered and records office is located atSuite 1500, 1055 West Georgia Street, P.O. Box 11117, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 4N7.
We have five subsidiaries: InterMeccanica, a British Columbia, Canada, corporation; EMV Automotive USA Inc., a Nevada corporation; SOLO EV LLC, a Michiganlimited liability company; ElectraMeccanica USA LLC, an Arizona limited liability company; and EMV Automotive Technology (Chongqing) Ltd., a PRC corporation.
Strategy
Our near-term goal is to commence and expand sales of the SOLO while continuing to develop our other EVs. We intend to achieve this goal by:
●		Began commercial production of the SOLO: Zongshen, our manufacturing partner, began production of the SOLO on August 26, 2020, with deliveries tocustomers that commenced on October 4, 2021, and have delivered 61 vehicles as at December 31, 2021;
●		Increasing orders for our EVs: We have an online reservation system which allows a potential customer to reserve a SOLO by paying a refundable $250deposit, a Tofino by paying a refundable $1,000 deposit and an e-Roadster by paying a refundable $1,000 deposit. Once reserved, the potential customer isallocated a reservation number and, although we cannot guarantee that such pre-orders will become binding and result in sales, we intend to fulfill thereservations as the respective vehicles are produced. We maintain certain refundable deposits from various individuals for SOLOs, Tofinos and e-Roadsters;
●		Having sales and services supported by local corporate stores: We will monitor all vehicles in real time via telematics which provides early warning ofpotential maintenance issues; and
	23

Table of Contents
●		Expanding our product offering: In parallel with the production and sale of the SOLO, we have started to take orders of the SOLO Cargo with anticipateddeliveries during third quarter of 2022 with a starting suggested retail price of $24,500. We aim to continue the development of our other proposed products,including the Tofino and e-Roadster, two-seater sports cars, in the expected price range of $50,000 to $60,000 for the Tofino and starting at $150,000 for the e-Roadster.
We have achieved our pre-order book through an online “direct sales to customers and corporate sales” platform, as well as a showroom at our headquarters inVancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Additionally, we have service and distribution centers in Studio City, California, and in Mesa, Arizona. We plan on expanding thecorporate retail stores model and will be opening retail stores in key urban areas. We currently have 17 retail stores located in the States of California, Arizona, Oregon,Washington and Colorado. Deliveries will be made to key markets along the U.S. west coast as the Company continues to expand. The Company commenced deliveriesto initial customers on October 4, 2021.
We will continue to identify other retail targets in additional regions. The establishment of stores will depend on regional demand, available candidates and localregulations. Our vehicles will initially be available directly from us. We plan to only establish and operate corporate stores in those states in the United States that do notrestrict or prohibit certain retail sales models by vehicle manufacturers.
Marketing and Sales Plan
We recognize that marketing efforts must be focused on customer education and establishing brand presence and visibility which is expected to allow our vehicles to gaintraction and subsequently gain increases in orders. Our marketing and promotional efforts emphasize the SOLO’s image as an efficient, clean and attainable EV for themasses to commute on a daily basis, for commercial fleets/deliveries and for shared mobility.
A key point to the marketing plan is to target metropolitan areas with high population density, expensive real estate, high commuter traffic load and pollution levelswhich are becoming an enormous concern. Accordingly, our management has identified California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Colorado and Southern Florida asareas with cities that fit the aforementioned criteria. We are currently delivering vehicles in the State of California.
We plan to develop a marketing strategy that will generate interest and media buzz based on the SOLO’s selling points. Key aspects of our marketing plan include:
●		Digital marketing: Organic engagement and paid digital marketing media with engaging posts aimed to educate the public about EVs and develop interest in ourSOLO;
●		Earned media: We have already received press coverage from several traditional media sources and expect these features and news stories to continue as weembark on our commercial launch;
●		Investor Relations/Press Releases: Our in-house investor relations team will provide media releases/kits for updates and news on our progress;
●		Industry shows and events: Promotional merchandise giveaways are expected to enhance and further solidify our branding in consumer minds. In October 2020we hosted the “First Look & Drive” media event in Santa Monica, California, and during March 2021 we showcased the SOLO at Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale,Arizona. In August/September 2021 we showcased the SOLO and SOLO Cargo version at the ACT Expo in Long Beach, California. Computer stations andpayment processing software will be readily on hand at such events to accept SOLO reservations. In November of 2021 we showcased SOLO O2 and SOLOCrassodon at SEMA in Las Vegas, Nevada. Also in November we showcased the entire SOLO line up at the LA Autoshow along with test drives; and
●		First-hand experience: Test-drives and/or public viewings are available at our existing stores in the Vancouver downtown core, Arizona, California, Oregon andsoon in Colorado and Washington.
We anticipate that our marketing strategy and tactics will evolve over time as our SOLO gains momentum and we identify appropriate channels and media that align withour long-term objectives. In all of our efforts we plan to focus on the features that differentiate our SOLO from the existing EVs in the market.

SOLO
We created the SOLO’s first prototype in September of 2016. Since the completion of the prototype, our engineers and designers have devoted significant efforts toprovide the SOLO with an appealing design and have engaged in proprietary research and development leading to a high-performance electric rear drive motor.
The SOLO has a suggested retail purchase price of U.S.$18,500 and features a lightweight chassis to allow for a top speed of 80/mph, an attainable cruise speed of68/mph and is able to go from 0/mph to 60/mph in approximately 10 seconds. Our SOLO features a lithium ion battery system that requires only up to four hours ofcharging time on a 220-volt charging station or up to eight hours from a 110-volt outlet. The lithium battery system utilizes approximately 17.3 kW/h for up to 100 milesin range. We offer a limited warranty for three years or 36,000 miles for the SOLO and limited warranty up to five years or 45,000 miles for the battery. Standardequipment in the SOLO includes, but is not limited to the following:
●		LCD Digital Instrument Cluster;
●		Power Windows, Power Steering and Power Brakes;
●		AM/FM Stereo with Bluetooth/ USB;
●		Rear view backup camera;
●		Air conditioning;
●		Heated seat;
●		Heater and defogger; and
●		Keyless remote entry.

SOLO Cargo
In September 2020 we announced our plans to produce an alternative “utility and fleet” version of our flagship SOLO EV. On February 2, 2022, the Company announcedits plan to start delivering the SOLO Cargo EV in the third quarter of 2022. This modified vehicle is being developed based on direct input from potential commercialand fleet partners and will be equipped with a stylish and functional cargo “cap”, offering additional capacity and versatility to suit a variety of different, single-occupantcommercial and utility fleet applications. Our engineers and designers have devoted efforts to provide the SOLO Cargo with an appealing design and have engaged inproprietary research and development leading to a high-performance electric rear drive motor.
The SOLO Cargo has the similar features as the SOLO; however, we anticipate that there will be some additional fleet technology and features that would be able to addto the SOLO Cargo. The SOLO Cargo EV has a range of up to 100 miles and a top speed of 80 mph, making it safe for highway use. It also features front and rearcrumple zones, side impact protection, a Kevlar reinforced safety hoop, torque-limiting control as well as power steering, power brakes, air conditioning and aconfigurable entertainment system.
SOLO Cargo EV dimensions have been expanded to include cargo space for a total of 11.8 cubic feet of storage space – as compared to 5 cubic feet of storage in thestandard SOLO EV. The uniquely styled vehicle is 53” tall and approximately 123” long, and the rear cargo dimensions are 37.5” long x 34” wide x 16” high. The Cargoversion contains a variety of features for commercial applications, including a bulkhead which separates the driver from the cargo contents, an adjustable/folding interiorfloor panel, cargo netting, lighting in the rear cargo space and a telematics enabled device. For added safety, the roof is reinforced with a Kevlar band.
The SOLO Cargo EV is now available for order with your ElectraMeccanica fleet representative by phone or email – all at a starting MRSP of U.S.$24,500. A dedicatedsales manager is available to walk customers through the purchasing and outfitting process. A post-sale account manager is provided for aftersales service and warrantysupport including in-shop service trainings, parts, and allocated resources to ensure limited downtime for fleets.

The Tofino
We announced on March 28, 2017, at the Vancouver International Auto Show, that we intended to build the Tofino; an all-electric, two-seater roadster. We are designingthe Tofino to be equipped with a high-performance, all-electric motor. The Tofino is still in early design stage development.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
We continue to source duplicate suppliers for all of our components and, in particular, we are currently sourcing our lithium batteries from Panasonic, Samsung and LTChem. Lithium is subject to commodity price volatility which is not under our control and could have a significant impact on the price of our lithium batteries.
At present we are subject to the supply of our chassis from one supplier for the production of the SOLO. We are exploring additional suppliers of the chassis to mitigatethe risk of depending on only one supplier.
Patents and Licenses
We have filed patent and design applications for inventions and designs that our legal counsel deems necessary to protect our products. We do not rely on any licensesfrom third-party vendors at this time.
	28

Table of Contents
Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this we rely on a combination of patent anddesign applications and registrations, trade secrets, including know-how, employee and third-party non-disclosure agreements, copyright, trademarks and othercontractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology and other intellectual property. As at March22. 2022, we have 14 issued designregistrations, 17 pending invention patent applications and four granted invention patent in specific countries which we consider core to our business in a broad range ofareas related to the design of the SOLO and its powertrain. Additionally, and pursuant to our Manufacturing Agreement with Zongshen, legal title has been transferredfor 24 granted Chinese design registrations from Chongqing Zongshen Institute of Innovation and Technology Co., Ltd. to EMV Automotive Technology (Chongqing)Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary. We intend to continue to file additional patent and design applications with respect to our technology and designs. Examination isproceeding with our pending patent applications, but it is not yet clear whether these applications will result in the issuance of patents or whether the examination processwill require us to narrow our claims such that, even if patents are granted, they might not provide us with adequate protection.

Industry Overview
Investment in clean technology has been trending upwards for several years as nations, governments and societies overall become more aware of the damaging effectsthat pollution and greenhouse gas emissions have on the environment. In an attempt to prevent and/or slow-down these damaging effects and create a more sustainableenvironment, consumers have taken to exploring and purchasing clean technology while nations and government agencies have undertaken programs to reducegreenhouse gas emissions, contribute funding into research and development in clean technology and offer incentives/rebates for clean technology investments bybusinesses and consumers. EVs are a growing segment of this clean technology movement.
EV is a broad term for vehicles that do not solely operate on gas or diesel. Within this alternative vehicle group there are sub-categories of alternative vehicles that utilizedifferent innovative technologies such as: (i) battery electric vehicles (“BEV”s); (ii) fuel-cell electric vehicles (“FCV”s) and (iii) plug-in hybrid electric vehicles(“PHEV”s).
BEVs draw on power from battery management systems to power electric motors instead of from an internal combustion engine, a fuel cell or a fuel tank. The NissanLeaf, Tesla Model S and our vehicles are BEVs.
FCVs typically utilize a hydrogen fuel cell that, along with oxygen from the air, converts chemical energy into electricity which powers the vehicle’s motor. Emissionsfrom FCVs are water and heat, hence making FCVs true zero-emission vehicles. The Honda Clarity, Hyundai Tucson and Toyota Mirai are examples of FCVs.
PHEVs are the hybrid vehicles that have both an electric motor and an internal combustion engine. A PHEV can alternate between using electricity while in its all-electric range and relying on its gas-powered engine. The Chevrolet Volt and the Toyota Prius are examples of PHEVs.

The popularity of EVs have also been met with difficulties in charging convenience. There are far more gas stations available than public EV charging stations. Theconvenience and availability of public EV charging stations may prove to be an obstacle of mass adoption of EVs.
Consumers may be afraid that their EVs may run out of charge while they are out on the road and this fear is recognized by the public and has been popularized with theterm “range anxiety”. Despite this fear, the distance travelled by most urban commuters is a lot lower than the typical range of an EV. Data from Statistics Canada’sNational Household Survey in 2011 reported the average Canadian takes 25 minutes to commute to work.
There currently exists different categories of charging stations depending on the voltage they provide. EV owners can often charge at home on a regular 110-volt outletwhich may take between 10 hours to 20 hours depending on the model and make of the EV. This type of outlet and charging is termed level 1 charging. Level 2 chargingmeans the voltage at the charging station is typically around 240 volts and this type of outlet is usually available at public charging stations, shopping malls and big boxretailer parking lots, and even located in certain residential hi-rises. Charging at a level 2 station typically cuts down the level 1 charge time in half and may require asmall fee for the service which may vary depending on the provider and the location.
Global EV Market
EVs have been around for over 100 years but have only recently gained widespread adoption and public interest due to open discussions of greenhouse gas emissionlevels, government and international policies on climate change and pollution, increased literature on EVs, fluctuating fuel costs and improved battery managementsystems and EV range. In addition, the market for electric vehicles has experienced significant growth in recent years due to consumer demand for vehicles that achievegreater fuel efficiency and lower environmental emissions without sacrificing performance.
Traditional automotive manufacturers have entered into the EV market to capitalize on its growth. The majority of growth in the EV market has been led by the followingEV models: the Nissan Leaf, the Honda Clarity (PHEV), the Toyota Prius (PHEV), the Tesla Model 3 and the Mitsubishi Outlander (PHEV). Four of the five modelsabove are made by traditional automotive manufacturers, and the fifth is made by Tesla Motors, one of several manufacturers that are solely devoted to the manufacturingof EVs.
Oil was the predominant energy source in the transport sector, providing 92% of final energy over the past decade, down only two percentage points from 1973.Increased demand for transport for people and goods called for more oil use, which was accompanied by increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Today, the transportsector is responsible for nearly one-quarter of global energy-related direct CO2 emissions and is a significant contributor to air pollution. Global and local objectives andcommitments to improve climate and air quality underscore that the transport sector has a critical role to play.
Even with the ongoing dominance of oil products in transport, these drivers drove rapid change. Over the last decade momentum accelerated to deploy a range ofpowertrains and alternative fuels. The 2010s were ground breaking for the introduction of electric vehicles and to shape a promising nascent market. Electrification is akey technological strategy to reduce air pollution in densely populated areas and a promising option to contribute to countries’ energy diversification and greenhouse gas(“GHG”) emissions reduction objectives. Electric vehicle benefits include zero tailpipe emissions, better efficiency than internal combustion engine vehicles and largepotential for GHG emissions reduction when coupled with a low-carbon electricity sector.
Hitting the commercial market in the first-half of the decade, the sales of electric vehicles have soared over the last five years. The top sellers were both fast growingemblematic companies such as Tesla as well as established automakers such as Nissan (Leaf model) and Renault (Zoe model). Notably, a rapidly developing industry inthe PRC had the biggest impact on electric vehicle sales.
Only about 17,000 electric vehicles were on the world’s roads in 2010. Just five countries could count more than 1,000 on their roads: China, Japan, Norway, UnitedKingdom and the United States. The electric vehicle market was in its infancy and made up of early adopters.
Yet by 2020 there were over 10 million electric vehicles on the world’s roads. Nine countries had more than 100,000 electric vehicles on the road. The global stockremains concentrated in China, Europe and the United States. At least 20 countries reached market shares above 1% in 2020.

Electric vehicle sales increased 40% in 2020 from 2019 with a record three million vehicles sold. While the EV market was breaking records, overall vehicle sales weredown 16%, largely attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. With over 10 million electric vehicle on the road, EVs now account for ~1% of the global vehicle stock. Earlydata for 2021 is indicating rapid growth once again in major markets.
Prospects for Electric Mobility Deployment to 2030
Below is an outlook for electrification of road transport to 2030. It considers deployment of electric vehicles and charging infrastructure, battery capacity and relatedmaterials demand as well as the implications for energy demand and GHG emissions.
The projections in this analysis rely on the gross domestic product (“GDP”) assumptions in the World Energy Outlook 2020 (IEA, 2020) as at the time of writing therewas not yet an updated GDP projection. Given the economic disruption related to the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, the assumption in this outlook implies an economicrecovery following the pandemic that leads to a similar level of economic activity over the next few years as was previously estimated, which means a relatively speedyglobal recovery. The analysis also assumes that policy targets that were in place by end-2020 for transport in general and EVs in particular remain in the context of theCOVID-19 pandemic and its economic repercussions.
The global EV stock (excluding two/three-wheelers) expands from around 10 million in 2020 to more than 50 million by 2025 and over 140 million vehicles by 2030,corresponding to an annual average growth rate close to 30%. Thanks to this continuous increase in sales share, EVs are expected to account for about 7% of the globalvehicle fleet by 2030. EV sales reach almost 14 million in 2025 and 25 million vehicles in 2030, representing, respectively, 10% and 16% of all road vehicle sales.

North American EV Market
Our primary market is North America, with a focus on the west coast of the United States – especially California. As of December 2021, cumulative registrations of plug-in electric passenger vehicles totaled 635,602 units, making California the leading plug-in market in the U.S. While the state represents about 10% of nationwide newvehicle sales, California has accounted for almost half of cumulative plug-in sales in the American market. Plug-in electric vehicles represented about 0.5% of thepassenger fleet on California’s roads by September 2015.
Until December 2014, California not only had more plug-in electric vehicles than any other American state but also more than any other country in the world. In 2015only two countries, Norway (22.4%) and the Netherlands (9.7%), achieved a higher plug-in market share than California. Sales of plug-in electric vehicles in the statepassed the 200,000 unit milestone in March 2016. By November 2016, with about 250,000 plug-in vehicles sold in the state since 2010, China was the only countrymarket that exceeded California in cumulative plug-in electric vehicle sales. Cumulative plug-in vehicle registrations achieved the 500,000 unit milestone by the end ofNovember 2018.

Annual registrations of plug-in electric vehicles in California increased from 6,964 units in 2011 to 20,093 in 2012, and reached 42,545 units in 2013. In 2014,California’s plug-in car market share reached 3.2% of total new car sales in the state, up from 2.5% in 2013, while the national plug-in market share in 2014 was 0.71%.The state’s plug-in market share fell to 3.1% in 2015, with the plug-in hybrid segment dropping from 1.6% in 2014 to 1.4%, while the all-electric segment increased to1.7% from 1.6% in 2014. Still, California’s market share was 4.7 times higher than the U.S. market (0.66%), and registrations of plug-in electric cars in the state in 2015represented 54.5% of total plug-in car sales in the U.S. that year.
California’s plug-in car market share rose to 3.5% of new car sales in 2016, while the U.S. take-rate was 0.90%. In 2017, California’s plug-in market share reached 4.8%,while the national share was 1.13%. Also, in 2017, the state’s plug-in segment market share surpassed the take-rate of conventional hybrids (4.6%) for the first time. Theplug-in market share rose to 7.8% in 2018, again ahead of conventional hybrids (4.2%), with the all-electric segment reaching for the first time a higher share thanconventional hybrids.
Currently, with the latest numbers from 2020, the plug-in market share has risen to a record 8.1% and the conventional hybrid has reached a six year high of 6.9%. Incomparison to the 8.1% market share for plug-in electric vehicles in California, they only make up for 2% of the market-share nationally. Much of the impeded growth interms of overall vehicle sales has been an effect of the COVID-19 pandemic with chip shortages and supply chain issues.

Fleet and Urban Driving market
We designed the SOLO with a view to redefining SOLO mobility for fleets in terms of vehicle share, deliveries and other mobility purposes; and for urban drivers whouse a personal vehicle by cutting their commuting costs and reducing their environmental footprint. We believe that a substantial number of fleets and urban drivers willfind the capacity of our EVs attractive in comparison to vehicles designed to carry more people. As vehicles designed to carry between four and eight people generallyweigh substantially more than those that carry one or two people, they require more fuel or energy to operate. This significant mismatch between capacity and utilizationleads to a significant excess of traffic and pollution and higher operating costs.
Although consumers may be afraid that their EVs may run out of charge while they are out on the road, the average U.S. one-way commute was only 39 minutes in 2019.The 100-mile range of our SOLO on a full charge would more than cover such a round-trip commute. [Data Source: United States KBB.]
Government Support
There has been a growing trend for governments as a matter of public policy to favor EVs. This has taken the form of initiatives aimed at improving transit, financialincentives for the purchase of EVs and financial incentives for the manufacture of EVs.
Initiatives to Improve Transit
Many localities try to reduce or regulate traffic, and particularly in places where there is high population density, chronic congestion, narrow roads and limited urbanspace. While these initiatives might be onerous to owners of traditional internal combustion engine vehicles, they often exempt or partially exclude EVs. These initiativesinclude various forms of congestion charging (which often exempt or provide discounts for EVs), priority lanes for high-occupancy vehicles and EVs, restrictions on newregistrations of vehicles (excluding EVs) and subsidies for the installation of public charging stations for EVs.

Going further than restrictions on vehicles fueled by petrol or diesel, several European countries and cities are formulating programs that would actually ban them.Norway’s Minister for the Environment has expressed an indication that they expect to implement a ban on the sale of vehicles that are not EVs by 2025. PresidentMacron of France has expressed an indication that they will eliminate the sale of vehicles with internal combustion engines in France by 2040, and city hall in Paris hasexpressed an indication calling for a ban on all vehicles with traditional combustion engines from its streets by 2030. In the United Kingdom the government hasannounced a strategy that calls for sales of new gas and diesel vehicles and vans to end by 2030.

Purchaser Incentives

To promote the purchase of EVs, many state and local governments offer financial incentives to purchasers. These incentives can take the form of rebates, tax credits orthe elimination or reduction of sales tax. Financial incentives available in selected North American jurisdictions for the purchase of EVs are set out in the following table:

Although these financial incentives may not continue at this level or at all, we believe that our SOLO would currently qualify for these tax credits and rebates in theStates of California and Oregon. As of March 12, 2020, we have passed the CARB test for the State of California for the $750 rebate to be posted on the Clean VehicleRebate Project website and for a $2,500 rebate from the State of Oregon.

Several jurisdictions offer similar financial incentives for the purchase and installation of home charging stations for EVs.

Manufacturing Incentives

To promote the manufacture and development of EVs, many federal, state and local governments provide financial incentives to EV companies. These incentives cantake the form of tax credits or grants. We did not receive any tax credits or grants in 2021. In 2020, we received $187,421 in a Scientific Research and ExperimentalDevelopment (“SR&ED”) grant and $176,088 from the Innovation Assistance Program administered by the National Research Council. In 2019, we received $797,002in a SR&ED grant. In 2018, we received $559,872 in a SR&ED grant and $6,659 from Canada’s Industrial Research Assistance Program (“IRAP”) administered by theNational Research Council. In 2017, we received $149,273 from the IRAP and $85,907 in a SR&ED grant. We will continue to apply for grants where we believewarranted.

Competitive Factors

The EV market is evolving and companies within it must be able to adapt without jeopardizing the timing, quality or quantity of their products. Other manufacturers haveentered the electric vehicle market and we expect additional competitors to enter this market within the next several years. As they do, we expect that we will experiencesignificant competition. With respect to the SOLO, we face strong competition from established automobile manufacturers, including manufacturers of EVs such as theTesla Model 3, the Chevrolet Bolt and the Nissan Leaf.

We believe the primary competitive factors in our market include but are not limited to: (i) technological innovation; (ii) product quality and safety; (iii) service options;(iv) product performance; (v) design and styling; (vi) brand perception; (vii) product price; and (viii) manufacturing efficiency.

Most of our current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources than we do and may be able todevote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of their products. Virtually all of our competitors havemore extensive customer bases and broader customer and industry relationships than we do. In addition, almost all of these companies have longer operating histories andgreater name recognition than we do. Our competitors may be in a stronger position to respond quickly to new technologies and may be able to design, develop, marketand sell their products more effectively.

Furthermore, certain large manufacturers offer financing and leasing options on their vehicles and also have the ability to market vehicles at a substantial discount,provided that the vehicles are financed through their affiliated financing company. We do not currently offer

Table of Contents
any form of direct financing on our vehicles. The lack of our direct financing options and the absence of customary vehicle discounts could put us at a competitivedisadvantage.
We expect competition in our industry to intensify in the future in light of increased demand for alternative fuel vehicles, continuing globalization and consolidation inthe worldwide automotive industry. Our ability to successfully compete in our industry will be fundamental to our future success in the EV market and our market share.We might not be able to compete successfully in our market. If our competitors introduce new vehicles or services that compete with or surpass the quality, price orperformance of our vehicles or services, we may be unable to satisfy existing customers or attract new customers at the prices and levels that would allow us to generateattractive rates of return on our investment. Increased competition could result in price reductions and revenue shortfalls, loss of customers and loss of market share,which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
We believe that our experience, production capability, product offering and management give us the ability to successfully operate in the EV market in a way that ourcompetitors cannot. In particular, we believe that we have a number of competitive advantages:
●		Extensive in-house development capabilities: Our acquisition of InterMeccanica. in 2017 enables us to leverage InterMeccanica’s extensive 62 years ofexperience in vehicle design, manufacture, sales and customer support. InterMeccanica was founded in Turin, Italy, in 1959, as a speed parts provider and soonbegan producing in-house designed, complete vehicles like the Apollo GT, Italia, Murena, Indira and the Porsche 356 replica. InterMeccanica’s former owner,Henry Reisner, is our former Executive Vice-President and a former director. We have integrated InterMeccanica’s staff with the research and development teamthat we had prior to the acquisition to develop and enhance current and future model offerings;
●		In-house production capabilities: We have the ability to manufacture our own products on a non-commercial scale. As of December 31, 2021, we haveproduced 64 prototype SOLOs at our facilities in Vancouver, British Columbia, and 60 pre-production SOLOs with our manufacturing partner, Zongshen;
●		Commercial production of the SOLO commenced August 26, 2020: As at December 31, 2021, in accordance with our Manufacturing Agreement, Zongshen hasproduced a total of 60 pre-production vehicles and a total of 291 production vehicles and we have delivered a total of 61 vehicles as at December 31, 2021 tocustomers and commercial fleets since deliveries commenced on October 4, 2021;
●		Unique product offering: The SOLO’s manufacturer suggested retail price of U.S.$18,500, prior to any surcharge for tariffs, is far below the retail price of EVsoffered by those who we consider to be our principal competitors; and we believe that the SOLO compares favorably against them; and
●		Management expertise: We have selected our management with an eye towards providing us with the business and technical expertise needed to be successful.They include Kevin Pavlov, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, Bal Bhullar, our Chief Financial Officer, Kim Brink, our Chief RevenueOfficer and Isaac Moss, our Chief Administrative Officer and Corporate Secretary. A number of these key employees and consultants have significantexperience in the automobile manufacturing and technology industries. We have supplemented additional expertise by adding consultants and directors withcorporate, accounting, legal and other strengths.
Government Regulation
As a vehicle manufacturer we are required to ensure that all vehicle production meets applicable safety and environmental standards. Issuance of the National SafetyMark (the “NSM”) by the Minister of Transport for Canada will be our authorization to manufacture vehicles in Canada for the Canadian market. Receipt of the NSM iscontingent on us demonstrating that our vehicles are designed and manufactured to meet or exceed the applicable sections of the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Act(C.R.C. Chapter 1038) and that appropriate records are maintained. Unique to Canada, the SOLO is under the three-wheeled vehicle category and is subject to the safetystandards listed in Schedule III of the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations (“CMVSR”), which can be found at (http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/C.R.C.,c.1038/section-sched3.html). For sales into the United States, we and our vehicles must meet the applicable parts of the U.S.Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Title 49 — Transportation. This includes providing manufacture identification information (49 CFR Part 566), VIN-decipheringinformation (49 CFR Part 565), and certifying that our vehicles meet or exceeds the applicable sections of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (40 CFR Part 571)and Environmental Protection Agency noise emission standards (40 CFR 205). Since the U.S. regulations do not have a specific class for three-wheeled “autocycles”, theSOLO falls under the definition of a motorcycle pursuant to Sec. 571.3 of 49 CFR Part 571.

We certified the SOLO for compliance with the applicable US requirements in the first quarter of 2018. Results from third party vehicle testing at a facility in Quebec,Canada, were used for this certification. We continue to use third party facilities for certification testing to ensure that any changes to the SOLO’s design continue to meetsafety requirements. Compliance certification of the SOLO for Canada began in 2018.
Within the three-wheel vehicle classification in Canada, CMVSR Standard 305 sets out the regulation for prevention of injury to the occupant during and after a crash asrelated to the vehicle’s batteries. Under this standard, the security and integrity of electric drive system components and their isolation from the occupant are evaluated inthe course of a frontal barrier crash test in accordance with Technical Standard Document No. 305. The equivalent U.S standard, FMVSS No. 305, is not applicable to themotorcycle category under the U.S. regulations.
We and our vehicles must meet the applicable parts of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Title 49 —Transportation. Since the U.S. regulations do not have a specificclass for three-wheeled “autocycles”, the SOLO falls under the definition of a motorcycle pursuant to Sec. 571.3 of 49 CFR Part 571. For sale into the United States, weand our vehicles must meet the applicable provisions of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Title 49 —Transportation. Since the U.S. regulations do not havea specific class for three-wheeled “autocycles”, the SOLO falls under the definition of a motorcycle pursuant to Sec. 571.3 of 49 CFR Part 571. However, currently amotorcycle license is not required to drive them in all but the States of Indiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina and NewYork (New York will no longer require a Helmet as of April 20, 2022). Motorcycle helmets must be worn while operating in the States of Alaska (when operating withouta motorcycle license or endorsement), Nebraska, North Carolina and Oregon. Helmets are also required if the driver is under 18 years old in the States of Alaska,Colorado, Indiana, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire and New Mexico. See “Government Regulation” herein.
Research and Development

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

General

As at January 1, 2021, our functional currency changed to the U.S. dollar (“USD”) from the Canadian dollar. The following management's discussion and analysis,prepared for the year ended December 31, 2021, is a review of our operations, current financial position and outlook and should be read in conjunction with our annualaudited financial statements for the year ended December 31,

Table of Contents
2021 and the notes thereto. Amounts are reported in USD based upon financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
This Annual Report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes. The discussion and analysis of the financial conditionand results of operations are based upon the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as adopted by the IASB.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts ofassets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On anon-going basis we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates were based on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable underthe circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates or other forward-looking statements under different assumptions or conditions, but we do notbelieve such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Our actual results may differ materially as a result of many factors, includingthose set forth under “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” herein.
Critical accounting policies, the policies we believe are most important to the presentation of our financial statements and require the most difficult, subjective andcomplex judgments, are outlined below under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”, and have not changed significantly since our founding.
Overview
We were incorporated on February 16, 2015, under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, and our principal activity is the development andmanufacturing of single occupancy electric vehicles. Our head office and principal address is located at 8057 North Fraser Way, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, V5J5M8.
Additional information related to the Company is available on www.electrameccanica.com. Information on our website does not constitute part of this Annual Report.
Financing
Our ability to continue operations will depend on our continued ability to raise capital on acceptable terms. We incurred losses of $41,326,835 in 2021, $63,046,905 in2020, $23,212,698 in 2019 and anticipate incurring losses in our 2022 fiscal year. We had negative operating cash flows of $60,418,163 for the year ended December 31,2021 and anticipate negative operating cash flows during 2022. Although we had working capital surplus of $232,454,617, including cash and cash equivalents of$221,928,008, at December 31, 2021, and anticipate deriving revenue in 2022 from the sale of EVs and high-end custom cars, and while our cash on hand and cashinflow from sales in 2022 will finance our operations over the 12 month period following issuance of the financial statemetns, we believe that we will need additionalfinancing to continue and expand operations . If we are unable to continue to access private and public capital on terms that are acceptable to us, we may be forced tocurtail or cease operations.
Market conditions, trends or events
Our ability to continue operations also depends on market conditions outside of our control. Significant developments in alternative technologies, such as advanceddiesel, ethanol, fuel cells or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect ourbusiness and prospects. Failure to keep up with advances in electric vehicle technology would result in a decline in the Company’s competitive position which maymaterially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.
A. Operating Results
Results of Operations for the Year ended December 31, 2021 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2020
Revenues
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $2,100,770 (2020: $568,521). The cost of revenue was $4,334,681 (2020: $699,455) providing a gross loss of$2,233,911 (2020: $130,934) or -106.3% (2020: -23.0%). The revenue of the Company derives from sales of

our flagship vehicle, the SOLO, and our high-end custom build cars. The first commercially-produced SOLOs were delivered to certain of our initial customers onOctober 4, 2021. 61 SOLOs and 12 high-end custom build cars were delivered in 2021.

The Company operates in two reportable business segments in Canada.

The two reportable business segments offer different products, require different production processes and are based on how the financial information is producedinternally for the purposes of making operating decisions. The following summary describes the operations of each of the Company’s reportable business segments:

●

Electric Vehicles – development and manufacture of electric vehicles for mass markets, and

●

Custom build vehicles – development and manufacture of high-end custom built vehicles.

Sales between segments are accounted for at prices that approximate fair value. No business segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable businesssegments. (Financial statement note 19 for the year ended December 31, 2021).

Revenue for Solo and custom build vehicles is recognized when the Company has transferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon shipment. Thefollowing table indicates the number of vehicles produced for either delivery to customers, testing or marketing purposes.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
The Company’s operations consist of the designing, developing and manufacturing of electric vehicles. The Company’s financial success depends upon its ability tomarket and sell its electric vehicles and to raise sufficient working capital to enable the Company to execute its business plan. The Company’s historical capital needshave been met by the sale of the Company’s stock. Equity funding might not be possible at the times required by the Company. If no funds can be raised and sales of itselectric vehicles do not produce sufficient net cash flow, then the Company may require a significant curtailing of operations to ensure its survival or may be required tocease operations. As at December 31, 2021, the Company has $221,928,008 of cash and cash equivalents on hand and, with inflow from sales in 2022, theCompanybelieves that it has sufficient cash to carry on operationfor the next 12 month period following issuance of this Annual Report.

Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods include the estimated recoverableamount of other long-lived assets, the useful lives of plant and equipment, fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based payments and therecoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets.
The COVID-19 outbreak brings significant uncertainty as to the potential impact on our operations, supply chains for parts and sales channels for our products, and onthe global economy as a whole. It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to priorlevels. Therefore, the Company has not changed any estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the financial statements.
Significant judgements
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgements, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accountingpolicies. The most significant judgements in applying the Company’s financial statements include:
●		the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue operations and whether there are events or conditions that may give rise to significant uncertainty;
●		the assessment of the Company’s functional currency;
●		the classification of financial instruments; and
●		the vesting probability of stock options with market conditions.

Table of Contents
Financial Instruments
The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”); or at amortized cost. The Companydetermines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of financial assets is driven by the Company’s business model for managing thefinancial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on theday of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at fair value through other comprehensiveincome (loss) (“FVTOCI”). Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for tradingor derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.
The following table shows the classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets/liabilities
Cash and cash equivalents	Amortized cost
Restricted cash	Amortized cost
Receivables	Amortized cost
Trade payables and accrued liabilities	Amortized cost
Derivative liabilities	FVTPL
Lease liabilities	Amortized cost
Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortizedcost less any impairment.
Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated statements of loss andcomprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included inthe consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise.
Revenue from contracts with customers
Sales of electric vehicles
Revenues from selling SOLO EV is recognized when the Company has transferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon delivery and transfer ofownership. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The totalconsideration in the contract is allocated to all products and services based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined withreference to the selling prices of similar products or services and other reasonably available information.
Customers usually pay consideration prior to the transfer of control over the products to customers.
In addition, product sales contracts with customers include warranty clauses to guarantee that the products comply with agreed-upon specifications. The Companyrecognizes general estimated warranties costs on its EVs at the time products are sold to customers. These provisions are estimated based on historical warranty claimexperience with consideration given to the expected level of future warranty costs as well as current information on repair costs. Provision for product warranties areutilized for expenditures based on the demand from customers. As of December 31, 2021, $nil warranty provision is recognized based on management’s estimate of thesame.

Share-based payments
Share-based compensation expenses are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payment expenses tonon-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goodsor services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amounts are recorded to the share-basedpayment reserve. For awards with no market-based performance measurement, the fair value of awards is determined using a Black–Scholes pricing model. For awardssubject to the performance against a market-based performance measure, management has used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the grant date fair value.The number of awards expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received asconsideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. The share-based payment reserve records itemsthat are recognized as stock-based compensation expense and other share-based payments until such time that the underlying securities are exercised, at which time thecorresponding amount will be transferred to share capital. If the securities expire unexercised, the amount remains in the share-based payment reserve account.
Research and development expenses
Research costs are expensed when incurred and are stated net of government grants. Development costs including direct material, direct labour and contract service costsare capitalized as intangible assets when: the Company can demonstrate that the technical feasibility of the project has been established; the Company intends tocomplete the asset for use or sale and has the ability to do so; the asset can generate probable future economic benefits; the technical and financial resources are availableto complete the development; and the Company can reliably measure the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. After initial recognition,internally generated intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. These capitalized costs are amortized on astraight-line basis over the estimated useful life. To date, the Company did not have any development costs that met the capitalization criteria.
Derivative Liability - Warrants
The Company accounts for its warrants as either equity or liabilities based upon the characteristics and provisions of each instrument. Warrants classified as equity arerecorded at fair value as of the date of issuance on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position and no further adjustments to their valuation are made.Warrants classified as derivative liabilities that require separate accounting as liabilities are recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position attheir fair value on the date of issuance and will be revalued on each subsequent statement of financial position date until such instruments are exercised or expire, withany changes in the fair value between reporting periods recorded as other income or expense. Management estimates the fair value of these liabilities using option pricingmodels and assumptions that are based on the individual characteristics of the warrants or instruments on the valuation date, as well as assumptions for future financings,expected volatility, expected life, yield and risk-free interest rate. On January 1, 2021, the Company change its functional currency from CAD to USD. As a result,warrants denominated in CAD were recognized as derivative liabilities and warrants denominated in USD were recognized as equity.
Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of the Company’s long-lived assets with finite useful lives (which include plant and equipment and intangible assets) is reviewed at each reportingdate to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extentof the impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (“CGU”) assets exceeds its recoverableamount. The Company has identified two CGUs, including electric vehicles, which develop and manufacture electric vehicles for mass markets, and custom-builtvehicles which develop and manufacture high-end custom-built vehicles. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensiveloss.
The recoverable amount of assets is the greater of an asset’s fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows arediscounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.For an asset that does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit towhich the asset belongs.
	49

Table of Contents
An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the estimates used to determinethe recoverable amount. Any reversal of impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the asset to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have beendetermined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years.
Income taxes
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax ratesand tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in the countries where the Company operates andgenerates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in other comprehensive incomeor equity and not in profit or loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations aresubject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences at the reporting date arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities andtheir carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognizedonly to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Deferred income taxassets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and taxlaws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset if adeferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.
The following table specifies the amounts spent on research and development for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019:

Potential Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (now commonly known as COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spreadrapidly throughout many countries and, on March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate thespread of COVID-19, many countries, including the United States, Canada and China, have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, and there have been businessclosures and a substantial reduction in economic activity in countries that have had significant outbreaks of COVID-19. Our manufacturing partner, Zongshen, reportsthat its operations have not been materially affected at this point, and we anticipate that Zongshen remained on track and began production of the SOLOs on August 26,2020 and deliveries began October 4,2021. However, significant uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our and Zongshen’soperations, and on the global economy as a whole. It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activityto return to prior levels. We do not yet know the full extent of any impact on our business or our operations, however, we will continue to monitor the COVID-19situation closely, and intend to follow health and safety guidelines as they evolve.

E. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet debt nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) orother relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have material current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in the financialconditions, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources or significant components of revenue or expenses.

F. Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

The Company adopted IFRS 16 on January 1, 2019, resulting in an increase of $1.60 million in total assets and total liabilities each for recognition of right-of-use assetsand lease liabilities, respectively. The following table provides the contractual obligations:

B. Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
This section sets out the objectives of our Company’s executive compensation arrangements, our Company’s executive compensation philosophy and the application ofthis philosophy to our Company’s executive compensation arrangements. It also provides an analysis of the compensation design, and the decisions that the Board ofDirectors made in Fiscal 2021 with respect to its Named Executive Officers (as herein defined). When determining the compensation arrangements for the NamedExecutive Officers, our Compensation Committee considers the objectives of: (i) retaining an executive critical to the success of the Company and the enhancement ofshareholder value; (ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; (iii) balancing the interests of management and our Company’s shareholders; and (iv) rewardingperformance, both on an individual basis and with respect to the business in general.
Benchmarking
Our Board of Directors established a Compensation Committee in March of 2018. Prior to that, our Board of Directors acted as the Compensation Committee.
The Compensation Committee will consider a variety of factors when designing and establishing, reviewing and making recommendations for executive compensationarrangements for all our executive officers. The Compensation Committee does not intend to position executive pay to reflect a single percentile within the industry foreach executive. Rather, in determining the compensation level for each executive, the Compensation Committee will look at factors such as the relative complexity of theexecutive’s role within the organization, the executive’s performance and potential for future advancement and pay equity considerations.
Elements of Compensation
The compensation paid to Named Executive Officers in any year consists of two primary components:
(a) base salary; and
(b) long-term incentives in the form of stock options (each, an”Option”) and RSU awards granted under our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan.
The key features of these two primary components of compensation are discussed below.
Base Salary
Base salary recognizes the value of an individual to our Company based on his or her role, skill, performance, contributions, leadership and potential. It is critical inattracting and retaining executive talent in the markets in which the Company competes for talent. Base salaries for the Named Executive Officers are intended to bereviewed annually. Any change in base salary of a Named Executive Officer is generally determined by an assessment of such executive’s performance, a considerationof competitive compensation levels

Options and RSU Awards
The Company provides long-term incentives to Named Executive Officers in the form of Options and RSUs as part of its overall executive compensation strategy. OurCompensation Committee believes that Option grants and RSU awards serve the Company’s executive compensation philosophy in several ways: firstly, it helps attract,retain and motivate talent; secondly, it aligns the interests of the Named Executive Officers with those of the shareholders by linking a specific portion of the officer’stotal pay opportunity to the share price; and finally, it provides long-term accountability for Named Executive Officers.
Risks Associated with Compensation Policies and Practices
The oversight and administration of the Company’s executive compensation program requires the Compensation Committee to consider risks associated with theCompany’s compensation policies and practices. Potential risks associated with compensation policies and compensation awards are considered at annual reviews andalso throughout the year whenever it is deemed necessary by the Compensation Committee.
The Company’s executive compensation policies and practices are intended to align management incentives with the long-term interests of the Company and itsshareholders. In each case, the Company seeks an appropriate balance of risk and reward. Practices that are designed to avoid inappropriate or excessive risks include: (i)financial controls that provide limits and authorities in areas such as capital and operating expenditures to mitigate risk taking that could affect compensation; (ii)balancing base salary and variable compensation elements; (iii) spreading compensation across short and long-term programs; and (iv) the Company maintains the rightto clawback an annual incentive award that may have been based on materially inaccurate financial statements or materially inaccurate performance criteria.
Compensation Committee
Our Compensation Committee consists of Luisa Ingargiola, Steven Sanders, Joanne Yan and Dave Shemmans and is chaired by Dave Shemmans. Each of theCompensation Committee members satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Listing Rules of Nasdaq. Our Compensation Committee willassist the Board of Directors in reviewing and approving the compensation structure, including all forms of compensation, relating to our directors and executive officers.No officer may be present at any committee meeting during which such officer’s compensation is deliberated upon.
The Compensation Committee’s responsibility is to formulate and make recommendations to our Board of Directors in respect of compensation issues relating to ourdirectors and executive officers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Compensation Committee has the following duties:
(a) to review the compensation philosophy and remuneration policy for our executive officers and to recommend to our directors changes to improve our ability to
		recruit, retain and motivate executive officers;
(b) to review and recommend to the Board of Directors the retainer and fees, if any, to be paid to our directors;
(c) to review and approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”), evaluate the CEO’s performance
		in light of those corporate goals and objectives, and determine (or make recommendations to our directors with respect to) the CEO’s compensation level basedon such evaluation;
(d) to recommend to our directors with respect to non-CEO officer and director compensation including reviewing management’s recommendations for proposed
		Options and other incentive-compensation plans and equity-based plans, if any, for non-CEO officer and director compensation, and make recommendations inrespect thereof to our directors;
(e) to administer the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan approved by our directors in accordance with its terms. including the recommendation to our directors of the grant
		of Options and RSU awards in accordance with the terms thereof; and
(f) to determine and recommend for the approval of our directors’ bonuses to be paid to our executive officers and employees and to establish targets or criteria for
		the payment of such bonuses, if appropriate. Pursuant to the mandate and terms of reference

		of the Compensation Committee, meetings of the Compensation Committee are to take place at least once per year and at such other times as the Chair of theCompensation Committee may determine.
Appointment of GGA
Since March of 2020, consistent with good governance practices, our Compensation Committee has now retained an independent compensation advisor to provide adviceon the structure and levels of compensation for our executive officers and directors and to undertake a comprehensive review of our incentive plans. In Fiscal 2021, theCompensation Committee retained Global Governance Advisors (“GGA”) to provide independent compensation advice to the Compensation Committee and to theBoard of Directors. GGA is an internationally recognized, independent advisory firm that provides counsel to boards of directors on matters relating to executivecompensation and governance. GGA is now retained to continually review the compensation levels for the Company’s executive officers and directors and short andlong-term incentive plans, and to evaluate and make recommendations on the Company’s overall executive and director compensation philosophy, objectives andapproach.
GGA’s services in Fiscal 2021 included:
●		compensation philosophy validation;
●		peer group review and development;
●		executive compensation review for our CEO, Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Operating Officer and Chief Administrative Officer;
●		short-term incentive plan design and performance metric criteria review;
●		long-term incentive plan review including:
●		performance based restricted stock unit design and long-term incentive plan mix evaluation; and
●		non-employee director compensation review; and
●		review of compensation discussion and analysis in the Company’s proxy statement.
Fees paid for GGA’s services for the last fiscal year was CAD$51,000.
The Compensation Committee reviews all fees and the terms of consulting services provided by GGA.
Overview of Executive Compensation Program
In Fiscal 2021, with the recommendations put forth by GGA (the “GGA Recommendations”), the Compensation Committee maintained the following general principlesin determining its executive and non-employee director total compensation plans.
The Company recognizes that people are our primary asset and our principal source of competitive advantage. In order to recruit, motivate and retain the most qualifiedindividuals as senior executive officers, the Company strives to maintain an executive compensation program that is competitive in the automotive and electric vehicleindustry, which is a competitive, global labor market.
The Compensation Committee’s compensation objective is designed to attract and retain the best available talent while efficiently utilizing available resources. TheCompensation Committee compensates executive management primarily through base compensation and variable at risk annual incentive and equity basedcompensation. The executive compensation plan is designed to be competitive with comparable companies, and to align management’s compensation with the long-terminterests of stockholders. In determining executive management’s compensation, the Compensation Committee also takes into consideration the financial condition of theCompany and discussions with the executive in each instance.
	59

Table of Contents
In order to accomplish our goals and to ensure that the Company’s executive compensation program is consistent with its direction and business strategy, thecompensation program for our senior executive officers is based on the following objectives:
●		to attract, motivate, retain and reward a knowledgeable and driven management team and to encourage them to attain and exceed performance expectationswithin a calculated risk framework; and
●		to reward each executive based on individual and corporate performance and to incentivize such executives to drive the organization’s current growth andsustainability objectives.
The following key principles guide the Company’s overall compensation philosophy:
●		compensation is designed to align executives to the critical business issues facing the Company;
●		compensation should be fair and reasonable to stockholders and be set with reference to the local market and similar positions of comparable companies;
●		a substantial portion of total compensation is at-risk and linked to individual efforts, as well as divisional and corporate performance. This ensures the linkbetween executive pay and business performance;
●		an appropriate portion of total compensation should be equity-based, aligning the interests of executives with stockholders; and
●		compensation should be transparent to the Board of Directors, executives and stockholders.
Benchmarking Compensation and Primary Peer Group
In Fiscal 2021 the Compensation Committee commissioned a peer group review from GGA as part of a more holistic executive and non-employee director compensationreview, in order to address changes in the external market and to ensure that the Company continued to benchmark executive compensation with appropriate marketcomparators. The Compensation Committee considered the complexity of the Company and the range of size of several of the appropriate comparable companies and,with the GGA Recommendations provided to them, established a revised peer group to better reflect the Company’s current business. The peer group was developedusing a combination of criteria including company size, industry, business practices, geography and stock exchange to qualify each organization. More specifically thepeer group met some or most of the following parameters:
●		companies of similar size to ElectraMeccanica (0.25x to 4x), primarily from a research and development expenditure perspective, but also taking into accountother factors such as market capitalization, total assets and revenue;
●		companies who belong to similar industry segments as ElectraMeccanica (i.e. automobile, electronic components, health care equipment or other complexengineering-related segments which integrate both software and hardware);
●		companies with a similar business strategy and scope of operations to the Company; and
●		publicly traded companies on major U.S. or Canadian exchanges.
In Fiscal 2021, with the GGA Recommendations, the resulting companies created a peer group At the time of the peer group selection, ElectraMeccanica’s market capwas positioned at the 53rd percentile of the peer group, and the research and development expenditure was also at the 53rd percentile.
In Fiscal 2021, with the GGA Recommendations, our compensation philosophy aimed to align both our executive and Board of Directors’ compensation around themedian of our peer group.
Compensation Elements and Rationale
There are three basic components to the Company’s executive compensation program: base compensation; short-term incentive awards; and long-term incentive equitycompensation.
	60

Table of Contents
Base Compensation
Base compensation is the foundation of the compensation program and is intended to compensate competitively relative to comparable companies within our industryand the marketplace where we compete for talent. Base compensation is a fixed component of the compensation program and is used as the base to determine elements ofincentive compensation and benefits.
Short-Term Incentive Awards
Our short-term incentive plan (the “STIP”) is a variable component of compensation and has the objective of motivating the executive officers to achieve pre-determinedobjectives over a one-year period and to provide a means to reward the achievement of corporate milestones and fulfillment of the annual business plan.
Historically, the amount of the short-term incentive awards paid to the Company’s executive officers was determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee on adiscretionary basis, given the Company’s stage of development and its transitional stage of growth, based on the expected benefits to the Company for meeting itsperformance targets, the Company’s available resources and market conditions.
As of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, with the GGA Recommendations, the Compensation Committee established guidelines for the amount of annual short-term incentive awards payable to the executives as a percentage of an executive’s base compensation for specific performance targets and levels achieve. GGArecommended that the Board of Directors adopt a balanced scorecard that supports a payout curve ranging from 50% of target for threshold performance, 100% of targetand a 150% of target for maximum performance to eligible executives.
In Fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committee approved the following guidelines for the opportunity of annual incentive awards to the executives, based on a selection offinancial, operating:
●		in addition to the performance metrics used to evaluate the executive officer’s annual incentive, the payment of annual incentive awards shall be subject to adetermination by the Board of Directors that the Company maintains sufficient cash on hand to meet the Company’s financial obligations as determined on thedate of payment; and
●		annual incentive awards shall be subject to a provision for recovery or “clawback” if a payment is subsequently determined by the Board of Directors to havebeen based on materially inaccurate financial statements or materially inaccurate performance criteria.
The Compensation Committee determined that it would continue evaluating and evolving the short-term incentive program design against best market practices as theCompany experiences further growth.
In Fiscal 2021, short-term incentive awards were paid to the executive officers for performance meeting or exceeding target performance levels in the form of cashbonuses as more particularly described in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.
Long-Term Incentive (Equity)
The Company’s long-term incentive program provides for, among other awards, the granting of Options and RSUs to executive officers to both motivate executiveperformance and retention, as well as to align executive officer performance to shareholder value creation. In awarding long-term incentives, the Company compares itslong-term incentive program to that of comparable companies within our industry and evaluates such factors as the number of shares available for awards under theCompany’s Plan, as ratified by the stockholders of the Company on July 9, 2020, and the number of awards outstanding relative to the number of shares outstanding.
Each long-term incentive grant is based on the level of the position held and overall market competitiveness. The Compensation Committee takes into considerationprevious grants when it considers new grants of Options and RSUs. The Board of Directors administers the granting of equity awards in accordance with the 2020 StockIncentive Plan.
In Fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committee reviewed the market prevalence of long-term equity incentive plans within the Company’s primary peer group. TheCompensation Committee determined that granting Options and making RSU awards were the most appropriate form of long-term equity incentive to award in Fiscal2021 due to market practice.

Table of Contents

In Fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committee considered the advice of GGA and the recommendations issued by leading independent proxy advisors and determined thatit would implement a performance based long-term incentive award structure based on best market practice to more closely align pay with future performance.

2020 Stock Incentive Plan

On June 11, 2015, our Board of Directors adopted our 2015 Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) under which an aggregate of 30,000,000 common shares maybe issued, subject to adjustment as described in the Stock Option Plan.

On May 29, 2020, with the prior recommendations from GGA, the Board of Directors passed a resolution to adopt our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2020 StockIncentive Plan” herein), subject to, and effective upon, the approval of shareholders. The 2020 Stock Incentive Plan provides flexibility to the Company to grant equity-based incentive awards (each, an “Award”) in the form of Options, RSUs, preferred shared units (“PSUs”) and DSUs, as described in further detail below. The 2020Stock Incentive Plan was approved by Company shareholders on July 9, 2020 and, accordingly, all future grants of equity-based Awards will be made pursuant to, or asotherwise permitted by, the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, and no further equity-based awards will be made pursuant to the Company’s prior Stock Option Plan.

The purpose of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan is to, among other things, provide the Company with a share-related mechanism to attract, retain and motivate qualifieddirectors, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries, to reward such of those directors, employees and consultants as may be granted awards underthe 2020 Stock Incentive Plan by the Board of Directors from time to time for their contributions toward the long-term goals and success of the Company, and to enableand encourage such directors, employees and consultants to acquire Common Shares as long-term investments and proprietary interests in the Company.

A summary of the key terms of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan is set out below, which is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan.

Key Terms of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan

Shares Subject to the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan

The 2020 Stock Incentive Plan is a fixed number share plan which provides that the aggregate maximum number of common shares (each, a “Common Share”) that maybe issued upon the exercise or settlement of Awards granted under it shall not exceed 30,000,000 Common Shares, subject to the adjustment provisions provided fortherein (including those that apply in the event of a subdivision or consolidation of Common Shares). Such maximum number of Common Shares consists of (i)12,850,917 Common Shares issuable pursuant to Awards previously granted and that remain outstanding under the Company’s Stock Option Plan, which Awards will becovered by the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan upon its ratification by the shareholders, and (ii) 17,149,083 additional Common Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awardsto be granted under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan.

Administration of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan
The 2020 Stock Incentive Plan designates the Board of Directors as the initial Plan Administrator (as defined in the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan), subject to the ability ofthe Board of Directors to delegate from time to time all or any of the powers conferred on the Plan Administrator to a committee of the Board of Directors. The Board ofDirectors has resolved to delegate all powers of administration of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan to the Compensation Committee.
The Plan Administrator determines which directors, officers, consultants and employees are eligible to receive Awards under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, the time ortimes at which Awards may be granted, the conditions under which awards may be granted or forfeited to the Company, the number of Common Shares to be covered byany Award, the exercise price of any Award, whether restrictions or limitations are to be imposed on the Common Shares issuable pursuant to grants of any Award, andthe nature of any such restrictions or limitations, any acceleration of exercisability or vesting, or waiver of termination regarding any Award, based on such factors as thePlan Administrator may determine.
In addition, the Plan Administrator interprets the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and may adopt guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the 2020 Stock IncentivePlan, and make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan.
Eligibility
All directors, employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan. The extent to which any such individual is entitled to receive a grantof an Award pursuant to the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Plan Administrator.
Types of Awards
Awards of Options, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs may be made under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan. All of the Awards described below are subject to the conditions,limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement and forfeiture provisions determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, subject to suchlimitations provided in the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, and will generally be evidenced by an Award agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the2020 Stock Incentive Plan and in accordance with applicable law, the Plan Administrator may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of Awards, cancel or modifyoutstanding Awards and waive any condition imposed with respect to Awards or Common Shares issued pursuant to Awards.
Options
An Option entitles a holder thereof to purchase a prescribed number of treasury Common Shares at an exercise price set at the time of the grant. The Plan Administratorwill establish the exercise price at the time each Option is granted, which exercise price must in all cases be not less than the volume weighted average closing price ofthe Common Shares on Nasdaq for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of grant (the “Market Price”) on the date of grant. Subject to any acceleratedtermination as set forth in the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, each Option expires on its respective expiry date. The Plan Administrator will have the authority to determinethe vesting terms applicable to grants of Options. Once an Option becomes vested, it shall remain vested and shall be exercisable until expiration or termination of theOption, unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator, or as otherwise set forth in any written employment agreement, Award agreement or other writtenagreement between the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and the participant. The Plan Administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any Optionbecomes exercisable. The Plan Administrator may provide at the time of granting an Option that the exercise of that Option is subject to restrictions, in addition to thosespecified in the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, such as vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified performance goals.
Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of granting an Option and set forth in the particular Award agreement, an exercise notice must beaccompanied by payment of the exercise price. A participant may, in lieu of exercising an Option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such Option to theCompany (a “Cashless Exercise”) in consideration for an amount from the Company equal to (i) the Market Price of the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of suchOption (or portion thereof) as of the date such Option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ü) the aggregate exercise price of the Option (or portion thereof) surrenderedrelating to such Common Shares (the “In-the-Money Amount”) by written notice to the Company indicating the number of Options such participant wishes to exerciseusing the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that the Company may require. Subject to the provisions of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company willsatisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the participant such number of Common Shares having a fair market value equal to the In-the-MoneyAmount.

Restricted Share Units
A RSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive oneCommon Share (or the value thereof) for each RSU after a specified vesting period. The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the 2020Stock Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant RSUs to any participant in respect of a bonus or similar paymentin respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a taxation year.
The number of RSUs (including fractional RSUs) granted at any particular time under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan will be calculated by dividing: (a) the amount that isto be paid in RSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator; by (b) the greater of (i) the Market Price of a Common Share on the date of grant and (ii) such amount asdetermined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion.
The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine the settlement and any vesting terms applicable to the grant of RSUs, provided that the terms applicable toRSUs granted to U.S. taxpayers comply with Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent applicable.
Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested RSU for one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share in respect of each vested RSU.
Performance Share Units
A PSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive oneCommon Share for each PSU after specific performance-based vesting criteria determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, have been satisfied. The PlanAdministrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator mayprescribe, grant PSUs to any participant in respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a taxation year. The performance goals to be achieved during anyperformance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any PSUs granted, the effect of termination of a participant’s service and the settlement termspursuant to any PSU will be determined by the Plan Administrator and by the other terms and conditions of any PSU, all as set forth in the applicable Award agreement.
The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine the settlement and any vesting terms applicable to the grant of PSUs, provided that the terms applicable toPSUs granted to U.S. taxpayers comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested PSU for one fully paidand non-assessable Common Share in respect of each vested PSU.
Deferred Share Units
A DSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Share credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive oneCommon Share (or, at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, the cash value thereof) for each DSU on a future date. The Boardof Directors may fix from time to time a portion of the total compensation (including annual retainer) paid by the Company to a director in a calendar year for service onthe Board of Directors (the “Director Fees”) that are to be payable in the form of DSUs. In addition, each director is given, subject to the provisions of the 2020 StockIncentive Plan, the right to elect to receive a portion of the cash Director Fees owing to them in the form of DSUs.
Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award agreement, DSUs shall vest immediately upon grant. The number ofDSUs (including fractional DSUs) granted at any particular time will be calculated by dividing: (a) the amount of Director Fees that are to be paid in DSUs, asdetermined by the Plan Administrator; by (b) the Market Price of a Common Share on the date of grant. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested DSU for: (a)one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share issued from treasury in respect of each vested DSU, or (b) at the election of the holder and subject to the approval ofthe Plan Administrator, a cash payment on the date of settlement. Any cash payments made under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan by the Company to a participant inrespect of DSUs to be redeemed for cash shall be calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Market Price per Common Share as atthe settlement date.

Dividend equivalents shall vest in proportion to, and settle in the same manner as, the Awards to which they relate. Such dividend equivalents shall becomputed by dividing: (a) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid per Common Share by the number of RSUs, PSUs andDSUs, as applicable, held by the participant on the record date for the payment of such dividend; by (b) the Market Price at the close of the first business dayimmediately following the dividend record date, with fractions computed to three decimal places.

C. Board Practices
Board of Directors
Our Notice of Articles and Articles were filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form F-1 as filed with the SEC on October 12, 2016 and incorporated hereinby reference. The Articles of the Company provide that the number of directors is set at:
(a) subject to paragraphs (b) and (c), the number of directors that is equal to the number of our first directors;
(b) if we are a public company, the greater of three and the number most recently elected by ordinary resolution (whether or not previous notice of the resolution
		was given); and
(c) if we are not a public company, the number most recently elected by ordinary resolution (whether or not previous notice of the resolution was given).
Our Board of Directors currently consists of eight directors. Our directors are elected annually at each annual meeting of our Company’s shareholders. The Board ofDirectors assesses potential Board candidates to fill perceived needs on the Board of Directors for required skills, expertise, independence and other factors.
Management is delegated the responsibility for meeting defined corporate objectives, implementing approved strategic and operating plans, carrying on the Company’sbusiness in the ordinary course, managing cash flow, evaluating new business opportunities, recruiting staff and complying with applicable regulatory requirements. TheBoard of Directors facilitates its independent supervision over management by reviewing and approving long-term strategic, business and capital plans, material contractsand business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions. Through its Audit Committee, the Board of Directors examines the effectiveness of theCompany’s internal control processes and management information systems. The Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation and recommends Optiongrants. Members of the Company’s Audit Committee are Luisa Ingargiola (Chair), Steven Sanders, Joanne Yan and Dave Shemmans.
The independent members of the Board of Directors are Ms. Ingargiola, Ms. Yan and Messrs. Sanders, Shemmans and Richardson. Ms. Bhullar and Mr. Pavlov are notindependent as they are officers of the Company and Mr. Kroll is not independent as he is a significant security holder of the Company and was the former President andChief Executive Officer of the Company until August 12, 2019.
Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A “material relationship” is a relationship whichcould, in the Board of Directors’ opinion, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment. The Board of Directors facilitates itsindependent supervision over management of the Company through frequent meetings of the Board of Directors at which members of management or non-independentdirectors are not in attendance and by retaining independent consultants where it deems necessary.
On April 16, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted a new Board Mandate among other new corporate governance materials. Pursuant to the Board Mandate, the Board ofDirectors is specifically charged with responsibility for:
(a) to the extent feasible, satisfying itself as to the integrity of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and that the Chief Executive Officer and
		other executive officers create a culture of integrity throughout the Company;
(b) adopting a strategic planning process and approving, on at least an annual basis, a strategic plan which takes into account, among other things, the opportunities
		and risks of the business;
	81

Table of Contents
(c) the identification of the principal risks of the Company’s business, and ensuring the implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks;
(d) succession planning (including appointing, training and monitoring senior management);
(e) adopting a communication policy for the Company;
(f) the Company’s internal control and management information systems; and
(g) developing the Company’s approach to corporate governance, including developing a set of corporate governance principles and guidelines that are specifically
		applicable to the Company.
A copy of the complete text of the Board Mandate was filed as Exhibit 99.5 to the Company’s Form 6-K filed with the SEC on April 27, 2020, and a copy can also beviewed on the Company’s website at https://investors.electrameccanica.com/governance-docs.

On April 16, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted written position descriptions for theChair of the Board of Directors and the Chair of each Committee of the Board of Directors.

SOLO Manufacturing Agreement
On October 2, 2017, we announced a Manufacturing Agreement with Zongshen to produce 75,000 SOLO all-electric vehicles with an initial term of four years withautomatic one-year renewal periods. On June 23, 2021, the current term was extended for a further three years. The production commenced on August 26, 2020,deliveries to customers commenced on October 4, 2021. Under the Manufacturing Agreement we agreed to reimburse Zongshen for: (i) the cost of the prototype toolingand molds estimated to be $1.4 million, which was due on or before March 18, 2018 and which had been postponed to complete until the second quarter of 2019 due toZongshen not then completing the prototype of the tooling and molds; and (ii) the mass production tooling and molds estimated to be $4.3 million, which shall bepayable 50% when Zongshen commences manufacturing the tooling and molds, 40% when Zongshen completes manufacturing the tooling and molds and 10% upondelivery to the Company of the first production vehicle. At December 31, 2020, the Company had completed the prototype tooling and molds with an actual cost of $1.7million, as inspected and assessed by the Company, most of the prototype tooling and molds will be used for the mass production and the Company has completed themass production tooling and molds with an actual cost of $6.4 million. The Company had paid 100% of prototype tooling and molds and 95% of the mass productiontooling and molds.
Share Pledge Agreement
In connection with the Manufacturing Agreement with Zongshen, on October 16, 2017, Jerry Kroll, our then CEO, entered into a Share Pledge Agreement to guaranteethe payment by us for the cost of the prototype tooling and molds estimated to be $1.4 million to Zongshen through the pledge of 400,000 of our common shares at adeemed price of USD$4.00 per share. We had agreed to reimburse Mr. Kroll on a one-for-one basis for any pledged shares realized by Zongshen under the Share PledgeAgreement. The Share Pledge Agreement has been terminated in 2021.
D. Exchange Controls
We are incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. There is no law or governmental decree or regulation in Canada that restricts theexport or import of capital, or affects the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of common shares, other than withholding taxrequirements. Any such remittances to United States residents are generally subject to withholding tax, however no such remittances are likely in the foreseeable future.See “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Information For United States Residents” below.
There is no limitation imposed by Canadian law or by the charter or other constituent documents of our Company on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote commonshares of our Company. However, the Investment Canada Act (Canada) (the “Investment Act”) has rules regarding certain acquisitions of shares by non-Canadians, alongwith other requirements under that legislation.
The following discussion summarizes the principal features of the Investment Act for a “non-Canadian” (as defined under the Investment Act) who proposes to acquirecommon shares of our Company. The discussion is general only; it is not a substitute for independent legal advice from an investor’s own advisor; and it does notanticipate statutory or regulatory amendments.
The Investment Act is a federal statute of broad application regulating the establishment and acquisition of Canadian businesses by non-Canadians, including individuals,governments or agencies thereof, corporations, partnerships, trusts or joint ventures (each an “entity”). Investments by non-Canadians to acquire control over existingCanadian businesses or to establish new ones are either reviewable or notifiable under the Investment Act. If an investment by a non-Canadian to acquire control over anexisting Canadian business is reviewable under the Investment Act, the Investment Act generally prohibits implementation of the investment unless, after review, theMinister of Innovation, Science and Industry (the “Minister”) is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada.
A non-Canadian would acquire control of our Company for the purposes of the Investment Act through the acquisition of common shares if the non-Canadian acquired amajority of the voting interests in our Company.
Further, the acquisition of less than a majority but one-third or more of the voting interests in our Company by a non-Canadian would be presumed to be an acquisition ofcontrol of our Company unless it could be established that, on the acquisition, our Company was not controlled in fact by the acquirer through the ownership of suchvoting interests.
For a direct acquisition that would result in an acquisition of control of our Company, subject to the exception for “WTO-investors” that are controlled by persons whoare nationals or permanent residents of World Trade Organization (“WTO”) member nations, a proposed investment generally would be reviewable where the value ofthe acquired assets is $5 million or more.
	96

Table of Contents
For a proposed indirect acquisition by an investor other than a so-called “WTO investor” that would result in an acquisition of control of our Company through theacquisition of a non-Canadian parent entity, the investment generally would be reviewable where the value of the assets of the entity carrying on the Canadian business,and of all other entities in Canada, the control of which is acquired, directly or indirectly, is $50 million or more.
In the case of a direct acquisition by a WTO investor, the threshold is significantly higher. An investment in common shares of our Company by a WTO investor that isnot a state-owned enterprise would be reviewable only if it was an investment to acquire control of the Company and the enterprise value of the assets of the Companywas equal to or greater than a specified amount, which is published by the Minister after its determination for any particular year. For 2022, this amount is $1.141 billion(unless the investor is controlled by persons who are nationals or permanent residents of countries that are party to one of a list of certain free trade agreements, in whichcase the amount is $1.711 billion for 2022); each January 1, both thresholds are adjusted by a GDP (Gross Domestic Product) based index.
The higher WTO threshold for direct investments and the exemption for indirect investments do not apply where the relevant Canadian business is carrying on a “culturalbusiness”. The acquisition of a Canadian business that is a “cultural business” is subject to lower review thresholds under the Investment Act because of the perceivedsensitivity of the cultural sector.
In 2009, amendments were enacted to the Investment Act concerning investments that may be considered injurious to national security. If the Minister has reasonablegrounds to believe that an investment by a non-Canadian “could be injurious to national security,” the Minister may send the non-Canadian a notice indicating that anorder for review of the investment may be made. The review of an investment on the grounds of national security may occur whether or not an investment is otherwisesubject to review on the basis of net benefit to Canada or otherwise subject to notification under the Investment Act.
Certain transactions, except those to which the national security provisions of the Investment Act may apply, relating to common shares of our Company are exempt fromthe Investment Act, including:
(a) acquisition of voting shares or other voting interests in the Company by a person in the ordinary course of that person’s business as a trader or dealer in
		securities,
(b) acquisition of control of our Company in connection with the realization of security granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for a purpose related
		to the provisions on the Investment Act, if the acquisition is subject to approval under the Bank Act, the Cooperative Credit Associations Act, the InsuranceCompanies Act or the Trust and Loan Companies Act, and
(c) acquisition of control of our Company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization following which the ultimate direct or
		indirect control in fact of our Company, through the ownership of voting interests, remained unchanged.
E. Taxation
Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for United States Residents
The following is a summary of certain Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the holding and disposition of our common shares acquired bya holder who, at all relevant times, (a) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”) (i) is not resident, or deemed to be resident, in Canada, (ii) dealsat arm’s length with us and the Agents, and is not affiliated with us or the Agents, (iii) holds our common shares as capital property, (iv) does not use or hold the commonshares in the course of carrying on a business in Canada, or otherwise in connection with a business carried on or deemed to be carried on in Canada, and (v) is not a“registered non-resident insurer”, an “authorized foreign bank” (each as defined in the Tax Act), or other holder of special status or in special circumstances, and (b) forthe purposes of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention (the “Tax Treaty”), is a resident of the United States, has never been a resident of Canada, does not have and has nothad, at any time, a permanent establishment or fixed base in Canada, and who qualifies in all respects for the full benefits of the Tax Treaty. Holders who meet all of thecriteria in clauses (a) and (b) above are referred to herein as “U.S. Holders”, and this summary only addresses such U.S. Holders.
This summary does not deal with special situations, such as the particular circumstances of traders or dealers, tax exempt entities, partnerships, insurers or financialinstitutions, or other holders of special status or in special circumstances. Such holders, and all other holders who do not meet the criteria in clauses (a) and (b) above,should consult their own tax advisors.

Table of Contents
This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act, the regulations thereunder in force at the date hereof (“Regulations”), the current provisions of the TaxTreaty, and our understanding of the administrative and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency published in writing prior to the date hereof. This summarytakes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the datehereof (the “Proposed Amendments”) and assumes that such Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, such Proposed Amendments mightnot be enacted in the form proposed, or at all, and no assurance in this regard can be given. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changesin law or administrative or assessing practices, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account tax laws of any provinceor territory of Canada or of any other jurisdiction outside Canada, any or all of which may differ significantly from those discussed in this summary.
For the purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of our common shares must be expressed in Canadian dollars. Amountsdenominated in United States currency generally must be converted into Canadian dollars using the rate of exchange that is acceptable to the Canada Revenue Agency.
This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular U.S. Holder, and norepresentation with respect to the Canadian federal income tax consequences to any particular U.S. Holder or prospective U.S. Holder is made. This summary is notexhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Accordingly, all prospective purchasers (including U.S. Holders as defined above) should consult with theirown tax advisors for advice with respect to their own particular circumstances.
Withholding Tax on Dividends
Amounts paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited as, on account or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, dividends on our common shares to a U.S. Holderwill be subject to Canadian withholding tax. Under the Tax Treaty, the rate of Canadian withholding tax on dividends paid or credited by us to a U.S. Holder thatbeneficially owns such dividends and substantiates eligibility for the benefits of the Tax Treaty is generally 15% (unless the beneficial owner is a company that owns atleast 10% of our voting stock at that time, in which case the rate of Canadian withholding tax is generally reduced to 5%).
Disposition of Common Shares
A U.S. Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on a capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of our common shares, unless the commonshares are “taxable Canadian property” to the U.S. Holder for purposes of the Tax Act and the U.S. Holder is not entitled to relief under the Tax Treaty.
Provided the common shares are listed on a “designated stock exchange” as defined in the Tax Act (which currently includes Nasdaq) at the time of disposition, thecommon shares generally will not constitute “taxable Canadian property” of a U.S. Holder at that time unless, at any time during the 60 month period immediatelypreceding the disposition, the following two conditions are met: (i) the U.S. Holder, persons with whom the U.S. Holder did not deal at arm’s length, partnerships inwhich the U.S. Holder or such non-arm’s length person holds a membership interest (either directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships), or the U.S. Holdertogether with all such persons, owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares of our company; and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market valueof the shares of the company was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, Canadian resourceproperties (as defined in the Tax Act), timber resource properties (as defined in the Tax Act) or options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, propertydescribed in any of the foregoing (whether or not the property exists). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain other circumstances set out in the Tax Act, commonshares could also be deemed to be “taxable Canadian property”.
U.S. Holders who may hold common shares as “taxable Canadian property” should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of Canadian capitalgains taxation, any potential relief under the Tax Treaty, and compliance procedures under the Tax Act, none of which is described in this summary.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are 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 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 that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. Our primary exposureto credit risk is on our cash held in bank accounts. The majority of cash is deposited in bank accounts held with major banks in Canada. As most of our cash is held byone bank there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using major banks that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by ratingagencies. Our secondary exposure to risk is on its other receivables. This risk is minimal as receivables consist primarily of refundable government value added taxes andinterest receivable from the major financial institution with high credit rating.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations as they fall due. We have a planning and budgeting process in place to help determinethe funds required to support our normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. We ensure that there are sufficient funds to meet our short-term businessrequirements, taking into account our anticipated cash flows from operations and our holdings of cash and cash equivalents.
Historically, our source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements and public offerings. Our access to financingis always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding

Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differfrom the respective functional currency. We are exposed to currency risk as we incur some expenditures that are denominated in CAD while our functional currency isUSD. We do not hedge its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
The following is an analysis of financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in CAD dollars:
					December 31,	December 31,	December 31,

Cash and cash equivalents				$				2,867,716	$	1,864,404	$	8,143,357

				$				440,276	$							782,625	$	7,716,095
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. We are exposed tointerest rate risk on our cash equivalents as these instruments have original maturities of three months or less and are therefore exposed to interest rate fluctuations onrenewal. A 1% change in market interest rates would have an impact on the Company’s net loss of $65,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. A 0.1% change inmarket interest rates would have an impact on the Company’s net loss of $71,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. A 0.1% change in market interest rates wouldhave an impact on the Company’s net loss of $209,500 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Fair Value
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, other than the derivative liability which is measured at fair value, approximates the carrying amount.
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used toestimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
●										Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
●										Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
●										Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
Financial liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2021 consisted of the derivative liability, which includes non-transferrable warrants and DSUs. DSUs areclassified as level 1, and the fair value of non-transferrable warrants are classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the derivative liability relating to the DSUs was calculated using the quoted market price on the NASDAQ exchange.
The fair value of the derivative liability relating to the non-transferrable warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using historical volatilityof comparable companies as an estimate of future volatility

ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Company is a foreign private issuer and our common shares are listed on Nasdaq. Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5615(a)(3) permits a foreign private issuer to follow itshome country practices in lieu of most of the requirements of the 5600 Series of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. In order to claim such an exemption, the Company mustdisclose the significant differences between its corporate governance practices and those required to be followed by U.S. domestic issuers under Nasdaq’s corporategovernance requirements. Set forth below is a brief summary of such differences.
Shareholder Approval Requirements
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635 requires each issuer to obtain shareholder approval prior to certain dilutive events, including a transaction other than a public offeringinvolving the sale of 20% or more of the issuer’s common shares outstanding prior to the transaction for less than the greater of book or market value of the stock. TheCompany does not follow this Nasdaq Marketplace Rule. Instead, and in accordance with the Nasdaq exemption, the Company complies with British Columbia corporateand securities laws, which do not require shareholder approval for dilutive events unless the Company were to dispose of all or substantially all of its undertaking.
In addition, Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635 requires shareholder approval of most equity compensation plans and material revisions to such plans, as well as with respectto the sale of our securities at a discount to their market value to an officer, director, employee or consultant. We do not follow this Nasdaq Marketplace Rule. Instead,and in accordance with the Nasdaq exemption, we comply with British Columbia corporate and securities laws, which do not require shareholder approval of equitycompensation plans or most discount to market offerings of securities unless otherwise indicated in the Articles of the Company.
Quorum Requirement
NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5620(c) requires that each company that is not a limited partnership shall provide for a quorum as specified in its by-laws for any meeting ofholders of common stock; provided, however, that in no case shall such quorum be less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the company’s common voting stock.The Company does not presently follow this NASDAQ Marketplace Rule. Instead, and in accordance with the NASDAQ exemption, the Company complies with BritishColumbia corporate and securities laws and its Articles which do not require a quorum of no less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s commonvoting stock and provides that the quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of shareholders is the quorum established by the Company’s Articles, which is oneor more persons, present in person or by proxy.
Executive Sessions
NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(b)(2) requires that the independent board members of a company have Executive Sessions which are regularly scheduled and at whichonly independent directors are present. Although we have previously followed this NASDAQ Marketplace Rule we may not do so in the future or on a consistent orregularly scheduled basis. Under applicable Canadian rules, customs and practice, the Company's independent directors are not required to hold executive sessions. However, the Company is subject to certain disclosure requirements prescribed in Canadian Form 58-101F1 - Corporate Governance Disclosure. In particular, theCompany must disclose whether the independent directors hold executive sessions and, if such executive sessions are held, how many of these meetings have been heldsince the beginning of the Company's most recently completed financial year. If the Company does not hold executive sessions, the Company must describe what theBoard does to facilitate open and candid discussion among its independent directors.
Proxy Delivery Requirements
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5620(b) requires that a listed company that is not a limited partnership shall solicit proxies and provide proxy statements for all meetings ofshareholders, and also provide copies of such proxy solicitation materials to Nasdaq. The Company is a "foreign private issuer" as defined in Rule 3b-4 under theExchange Act, and the equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from the proxy rules set forth in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c) and 14(f) of the ExchangeAct. The Company solicits proxies in accordance with applicable rules and regulations in Canada.

Distribution of Annual and Interim Reports
Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5250(d)(1) requires that a listed company (including a limited partnership) make available to shareholders an annual report containing auditedfinancial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (which, for example may be on Form 10-K, 20-F, 40-F or N-CSR) within a reasonable period of time followingthe filing of the annual report with the SEC. In addition, under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5250(d)(4)(A), each company that is not a limited partnership and is not subjectto Rule 13a-13 under the Exchange Act and that is required to file with the SEC, or other regulatory authority, interim reports relating primarily to operations andfinancial position, shall make available to shareholders reports which reflect the information contained in those interim reports. Such reports shall be made available toshareholders either before or as soon as practicable following filing with the appropriate regulatory authority. If the form of the interim report provided to shareholdersdiffers from that filed with the regulatory authority, the company shall file one copy of the report to shareholders with Nasdaq in addition to the report to the regulatoryauthority that is filed with Nasdaq pursuant to Rule 5250(c)(1).
The Company currently complies with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5250(d)(1) and 5250(d)(4)(A), however, the Company may not do so or on a consistent basis. Instead,the Company may determine to comply with British Columbia corporate and securities laws which do not require the distribution of annual or interim reports toshareholders but do require the Company to place before the annual general meeting the annual financial statements that the Company is required to with the applicablesecurities commissions in Canada under the Securities Act (British Columbia) in relation to the most recently completed financial year, file annual and interim financialstatements on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, and send annually a request form to the registered holders and beneficial owners of its securities that can be used to request apaper copy of the Company's annual financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the annual financial statements, and a copy of the Company'sinterim financial reports and management discussion and analysis for the interim financial reports free of charge.

			Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of DirectorsElectrameccanica Vehicles Corp.:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Electrameccanica Vehicles Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31,2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period endedDecember 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in allmaterial respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the years in thethree-year period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
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 financialstatements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and arerequired 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 andExchange 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 assuranceabout whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were weengaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control overfinancial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, weexpress no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, andperforming procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in theconsolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well asevaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The Company’smanagement reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events thatare believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.
Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods include the estimated recoverableamount of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, the useful lives of plant and equipment, fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based payments, and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets.
The COVID-19 outbreak brings significant uncertainty as to the potential impact on our operations, supply chains for parts and sales channels for our products, and onthe global economy as a whole. It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to priorlevels. Therefore, the Company has not changed any estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the financial statements.
Significant judgments
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accountingpolicies. The most significant areas that require judgment from the Company in completing its consolidated financial statements include:
-	the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue operations and whether there are events or conditions that may give rise to significant uncertainty;
-	the classification of financial instruments; and
-	the vesting probability of stock options with market conditions.
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s functional currency is USD. The functional currency of Intermeccanica is CAD, the functional currency of EMV Automotive USA Inc.andElectraMeccanica USA, LLC is USD, and the functional currency of EMV Automotive Technology (Chongqing) Inc. is the Chinese RMB. The Company reassessed thefunctional currency during its first quarter of 2021 and determined that the factors now supported USD as the functional currency for the Company. The Company hasapplied the change in functional currency from CAD to USD effective January 1, 2021. The change in functional currency is discussed in Note 3.
Transactions in foreign currency
Each entity within the consolidated group records transactions using its functional currency, being the currency of the primary economic environment in which itoperates. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the respective functional currency of each entity using the foreign currency rates prevailing at the date of thetransaction. Period-end balances of monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency are translated to the respective functional currencies using period-end foreigncurrency rates. Foreign currency gains and losses arising from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized in profit or loss.
Foreign operations translation
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations that have a functional currency other than USD are translated into USD at the exchange rates in effect atthe end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period.The resulting translation gainsand losses are included as other comprehensive loss. The cumulative deferred translation gains or losses on the foreign operations are reclassified to net income, only ondisposal of the foreign operations.

Segment reporting
The Company’s operations currently consist of two operating segments, which are its reportable segments.
Financial Instruments
The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”); or at amortized cost. The Companydetermines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of financial assets is driven by the Company’s business model for managing thefinancial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on theday of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at fair value through other comprehensiveincome (loss) (“ FVTOCI”). Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for tradingor derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.
The following table shows the classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets/liabilities
Cash and cash equivalents			Amortized cost
Restricted cash		Amortized cost
Receivables			Amortized cost
Trade payables and accrued liabilities			Amortized cost
Derivative liabilities			FVTPL
Lease liabilities		Amortized cost
Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortizedcost less any impairment.
Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated statements of loss andcomprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included inthe consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise.
The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the Companymeasures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the financial risk on the financial asset has increasedsignificantly since initial recognition. If, at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the lossallowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses. The Company will recognize in the consolidated statements of loss andcomprehensive loss, as an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date tothe amount that is required to be recognized.
The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets andsubstantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in the consolidatedstatements of loss and comprehensive loss.

Revenue from contracts with customers
Sales of electric vehicles
Revenues from selling SOLO EVs is recognized when the Company has transferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon delivery and transfer ofownership. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The totalconsideration in the contract is allocated to all products and services based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined withreference to the selling prices of similar products or services and other reasonably available information.
Customers usually pay consideration prior to the transfer of control over the products to customers.
In addition, product sales contracts with customers include warranty clauses to guarantee that the products comply with agreed-upon specifications. The Companyrecognizes costs for general estimated warranties costs on SOLO EVs at the time products are sold to customers. These provisions are estimated based on historicalwarranty claim experience with consideration given to the expected level of future warranty costs as well as current information on repair costs. Provision for productwarranties are utilized for expenditures based on the demand from customers. As of December 31, 2021, $nil warranty provision is recognized based on management'sestimate.
Part sales
Sales of parts are recognized when the Company has transferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon shipment.
Services, repairs and support services
Services, repairs and support services are recognized in the accounting period when the services are rendered.
Sales of custom build vehicles
The Company manufactures and sells custom built vehicles typically on fixed fee arrangements with its customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company hastransferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon shipment.
Government grants
A government grant is recognized if there is reasonable assurance that it will be received and that the Company will comply with the conditions associated with the grant.If the conditions are met, the Company recognizes the grant in profit or loss on a systematic basis in line with its recognition of the expenses that the grant is intended tocompensate. For grants related to income, a company can elect to either offset the grant against the related expenditure or include it in other income. Governmentassistance received by the Company during the period has been accounted for as government grants related to income and have been included in other income.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 180 days and are presented at cost, which approximates marketvalue.
Customer deposits
Customer deposits consist primarily of advance payments from customers who order the SOLO EVs. The deposit is recognized as revenue when the Company transferscontrol to the customer which generally occurs upon delivery and transfer of ownership.

Construction contract liabilities
Construction contract liabilities consist primarily of advance payments from customers who order custom-built vehicles. The deposit is recognized as revenue when theCompany has transferred control to the customer which generally occurs upon shipment.
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue consists primarily of advance payments that may be made to the Company by its manufacturing partner in China, Chongqing Zongshen AutomobileCo., Ltd. (“Zongshen”), for royalties to be derived from the sales of SOLO EVs by Zongshen in China when any such sales are made in accordance with the terms of ourmanufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”). The deferred revenue from any such royalties will be recognized in profit or loss on a periodic basis as andwhen the Zongshen builds and sells the permitted number of SOLO EVs in China under the Manufacturing Agreement.
Inventory
Inventory consists of vehicles and parts held for resale or for use in fixed fee contracts and is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventoriesincludes purchase costs and conversion costs, and is determined principally by using the weighted average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price inthe ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Trademarks and patents
The Company expenses legal fees and filing costs associated with the development of its trademarks and patents.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefitsassociated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced asset is derecognized. All otherrepairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss andcomprehensive loss.
Amortization is calculated on a straight-line method to write off the cost of the assets to their residual values over their estimated useful lives. The amortization ratesapplicable to each category of plant and equipment are as follows:
		Class of plant and equipment			Amortization rate
		Furniture and equipment				20%
		Computer hardware				33%
		Computer software				50%
		Vehicles				33%
		Production molds		33%
		Leasehold improvements			over term of lease
		Right of use assets	over term of lease

Share-based payments
Share-based compensation expenses are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payment expenses tonon-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goodsor services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amounts are recorded to the share-basedpayment reserve. For awards with no market-based performance measurement, the fair value of options is determined using a Black–Scholes pricing model. For awardssubject to the performance against a market-based performance measure, management have used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the grant date fair value.The number of options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received asconsideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. The share-based payment reserve records itemsthat are recognized as stock-based compensation expense and other share-based payments until such time that the underlying securities are exercised, at which time thecorresponding amount will be transferred to share capital. If the securities expire unexercised, the amount remains in the share-based payment reserve account.
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted Stock Units (“RSU”s) are stock-based awards that may be granted by the Company to certain eligible participants pursuant to its current 2020 Stock IncentivePlan (the “Plan”) which was ratified by Company shareholders on July 9, 2020. RSUs are accounted for as equity-settled share based payment transactions as theobligations under an RSU will be settled through the issuance of common shares. The Company measures the cost of equity-settled share-based transactions by referenceto the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted and is recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss over the vesting period.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period.For all periods presented, the loss attributable to common shareholders equals the reported loss attributable to owners of the Company. Fully diluted loss per share iscalculated by the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the calculation of fully dilutedloss per share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive share options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at the average marketprice during the period.
Research and development expenses
Research costs are expensed when incurred and are stated net of government grants. Development costs including direct material, direct labour and contract service costsare capitalized as intangible assets when: the Company can demonstrate that the technical feasibility of the project has been established; the Company intends tocomplete the asset for use or sale and has the ability to do so; the asset can generate probable future economic benefits; the technical and financial resources are availableto complete the development; and the Company can reliably measure the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. After initial recognition,internally generated intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. These capitalized costs are amortized on astraight-line basis over the estimated useful life. To date, the Company did not have any development costs that met the capitalization criteria.

Derivative Liabilities - Warrants
The Company accounts for its warrants as either equity or liabilities based upon the characteristics and provisions of each instrument. Warrants classified as equity arerecorded at fair value as of the date of issuance on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position and no further adjustments to their valuation are made.Warrants classified as derivative liabilities that require separate accounting as liabilities are recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position attheir fair value on the date of issuance and will be revalued on each subsequent statement of financial position date until such instruments are exercised or expire, withany changes in the fair value between reporting periods recorded as other income or expense. Management estimates the fair value of these liabilities using option pricingmodels and assumptions that are based on the individual characteristics of the warrants or instruments on the valuation date, as well as assumptions for future financings,expected volatility, expected life, yield and risk-free interest rate. On January 1, 2021, the Company change its functional currency from CAD to USD. As a result,warrants denominated in CAD were recognized as derivative liabilities and warrants denominated in USD were recognized as equity. Refer to Note 3.
Derivative Liabilities - Deferred Stock Units
Deferred Stock Units ("DSU"s) are stock-based awards that may be granted by the Company to certain eligible participants pursuant to its Plan. During the year endedDecember 31, 2021, the Company changed the settlement intention by allowing the holders of the DSUs to settle the DSUs in cash or common shares. As a result, theentire DSU balance of $152,165 was reclassified from equity to DSU liability. At inception, the Company measures the cost of equity-settled share-based transactions byreference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted and is recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss in the periodthey are granted (immediate vesting). At each reporting date, between the grant and settlement dates of DSUs, the fair value of the liability is re-measured with anychanges in fair value recognized in net income (loss) for the period.
Leases
The Company assesses at inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an indentifed asset for aperiod of time in exchange for consideration.
As a lessee
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. Leases are recognized asa right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability at the lease commencement date. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the future fixed payments andvariable lease payments that depend on an index or rate over the lease term, less any lease incentives receivable, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate,unless the implicit interest rate in the lease can be easily determined. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as epxneses in theperiod in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Lease terms applied are the contractual non-cancellable periods ofthe lease, plus periods covered by renewal or termination options, if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise those options. Lease liabilities are remeasured (with acorresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset) when there is a change in the lease term, a change in the future lease payments resulting from a change in an index orrate used to determine those payments or when the lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease.
The right-of-use assets include the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liabilities, lease payments at or before the commencement date and any initial directcosts, less any lease incentives received before the commencement date. The right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost and are depreciated on a straight-linebasis from the date the underlying asset is available for use over the lease term.
The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.

The Company applies the shorter lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of Kiosk locations (i.e. those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less fromthe commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). Lease payments on short-term leases are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the leaseterm.
As a lessor
When the Company acts as an intermediate lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease and accounts for its interestin the head lease and the sublease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, and notwith reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Company applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sublease asan operating lease.
Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of the Company’s long-lived assets with finite useful lives (which include plant and equipment and intangible assets) is reviewed at each reportingdate to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extentof the impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (CGU) assets exceeds its recoverableamount. The Company has identified two CGUs including electric vehicles, which develop and manufacture electric vehicles for mass markets, and custom-built vehicleswhich develop and manufacture high-end custom-built vehicles. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
The recoverable amount of assets is the greater of an asset’s fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows arediscounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.For an asset that does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit towhich the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the estimates used to determinethe recoverable amount. Any reversal of impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the asset to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have beendetermined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years.
Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment at both CGU assets level andtotal assets level, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist.
Income taxes
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax ratesand tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in the countries where the Company operates andgenerates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in other comprehensive incomeor equity and not in profit or loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations aresubject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Tax Credits
The Company earns scientific research and experimental development activity (“SR&ED”) tax credits with respect to its research and development expenses. The benefitof these SR&ED tax credits is recorded as a reduction of research and development expenses when their recoverability is reasonably expected. The SR&ED tax creditsearned while the Company was Canadian Controller Private Corporation (as defined by Canadian income tax legislation) are refundable to the Company and are recordedas a receivable, while the tax credits earned now that the Company is a public company (as defined under Canadian tax laws) can be used to reduce future Canadianincome taxes payable.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences at the reporting date arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities andtheir carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognizedonly to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Deferred income taxassets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and taxlaws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset if adeferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Standards issued but not yet effective
Definition of Accounting Estimates – Amendments to IAS 8
In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8, in which it introduced a definition of ‘accounting estimates’. The amendments clarify the distinction betweenchanges in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies and the correction of errors. Also, they clarify how one is entitied to use measurement techniques andinputs to develop accounting estimates. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and apply to changes inaccounting policies and changes in accounting estimates that occur on or after the start of that period. Earlies application is permitted as long as the fact is disclosed. Theamendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
Disclosure of Accounting Policies – Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2
In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements, in which it provides guidance and examples tohelp entities apply materiality judgements to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments aim to help entities provide accounting policy disclosure that is more usefulby replacing the requirement for entities to disclose their ‘significant’ accounting policies with a requirement to disclose their ‘material’ accounting policies and addingguidance on how entities apply the concept of materiality in making decisions about accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 1 are applicable for annualperiods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 with earlier application permitted. Since the amendments to the Practice Statement 2 provide non-mandatory guidance onthe application of the definition of material to accounting policy information, an effective date for these amendments is not necessary. The Company is currentlyassessing the impact of the amendments to determine the impact they will have on the Company’s accounting policy disclosures.
3. Change in presentation currency and functional currency

Prior to December 31, 2020, the Company reported its annual consolidated financial statements in CAD. In making this change in presentation currency, the Companyfollows the recommendations set out in IAS 21, the Effects of Change in Foreign Exchange Rates. In accordance with IAS 21, comparable financial statements for theyear ended December 31, 2019 were restated retrospectively in the new presentation currency of USD using the current rate method as comparatives in the Company’sDecember 31, 2020 annual report filing.
The consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2020 of the Company has been prepared in CAD and translated into the new presentation currency ofUSD using the current rate method.
The procedures under the current rate method are outlined as below:
☐ Income Statement and Statement of Cash Flows have been translated into USD using average foreign currency rates prevailing for the relevant reporting periods
		of years ended December 31, 2020;
☐ assets and liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position have been translated into USD at the closing foreign currency rates on the relevant reporting dates as
		of December 31, 2020 and 2019;
☐ the equity section of the Statement of Financial Position, including foreign currency translation reserve, retained earnings, share capital and the other reserves,
		have been translated into USD using historical rates; and
☐ earnings per share has also been restated to USD to reflect the change in presentation currency.
All resulting exchange differences arising from the translation are included as a separate component of other comprehensive income.
Functional Currency
The Company considered the current and prospective economic substance of the underlying transactions and circumstances of the Company and concluded that, as ofJanuary 1, 2021, the functional currency should be USD rather than CAD.
The effect of the change in functional currency to USD was applied prospectively in the financial statements effective January 1, 2021. The financial position of theCompany as at January 1, 2021 has been translated from CAD to USD at an exchange rate of 1.273.
All transactions for the Company are recorded in USD from January 1, 2021 and onwards. Transactions denominated in currencies other than USD are considered foreigncurrency transactions. Foreign currency transactions are translated into USD using the foreign currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Period-end balancesof monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency are translated to USD using period-end foreign currency rates. Foreign currency gains and losses arising from thesettlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized in profit or loss.
The Company reassessed its derivative liabilities upon the change in functional currency, which resulted in an increase of $14,539,226 in derivative liabilities with acorresponding decrease in share capital as at January 1, 2021.
Warrants issued other than as compensation for goods and services with exercise prices denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company arerecognized as derivative liabilities and measured at fair value at each reporting period.
As at December 31, 2020, the functional currency of the Company was CAD and, therefore, warrants with exercise prices denominated in USD were recognized asderivative liabilities and measured at fair value by the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with a valuation date of December 31, 2020. The derivative liabilities of theCompany was $17,899,855 as at December 31, 2020.
As at January 1, 2021, the functional currency of the Company is USD. Accordingly, warrants with exercise prices denominated in CAD are recognized as derivativeliabilities and measured at fair value by the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with a valuation date of January 1, 2021. The fair value of the derivative liabilities of theCompany was $32,439,081 as at January 1, 2021.

12. Derivative liabilities
a) Warrants
The exercise price of certain warrants is denominated in CAD, however the functional currency of the Company is USD (see Note 3). Consequently, the value of theproceeds on exercise is not fixed and will vary based on foreign exchange rate movements. The warrants when issued other than as compensation for goods and servicesare therefore a derivative for accounting purposes and are required to be recognized as derivative liabilities and measured at fair value at each reporting period. Anychanges in fair value from period to period are recorded as non-cash gain or loss in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Upon exercise, theholders will pay the Company the respective exercise price for each warrant exercised in exchange for one common share of the Company and the fair value at the date ofexercise and the associated non-cash liability will be reclassified to share capital. The non-cash liability associated with any warrants that expire unexercised will berecorded as a gain in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. There are no circumstances in which the Company would be required to pay any cashupon exercise or expiry of the warrants (see Note 13 for further information on warrants issued and outstanding).
A reconciliation of the changes in fair values of the warrants derivative liabilities for years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is below:
			December 31,		December 31,
			2021		2020

The fair value of the non-transferrable warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
b) Deferred Stock Units

20. Financial instruments and financial risk management
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk managementprocesses, inclusive of 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 that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company’sprimary exposure to credit risk is on its cash and cash equivalents held in bank accounts. The majority of cash is deposited in bank accounts held with major financialinstitutions in Canada. As most of the Company’s cash is held by one financial institution there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using majorfinancial institutions that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company’s secondary exposure to risk is on its receivables.This risk is minimal as receivables consist primarily of refundable government goods and services taxes and interest receivable from major financial institutions withhigh credit rating.

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 has a planning and budgeting process in placeto help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company ensures that there are sufficient fundsto meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents.
Historically, the Company’s source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements and public offerings. TheCompany’s access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding.
The following is an analysis of the contractual maturities of the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities as at December 31, 2021 and 2020. We have excludedwarrants derivative liabilities from the table because they are settled by shares (see note 12).

		$					4,037,571	$	373,889	$	125,652
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differfrom the respective functional currency. The Company is exposed to currency risk as it incurs some expenditures that are denominated in CAD while its functionalcurrency is USD. The Company does not hedge its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
The following is an analysis of financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in CAD:
								December 31,				December 31,
								2021				2020
Cash and cash equivalents					$	2,867,716			$	1,864,404
Restricted cash			81,176					80,550
Receivables								242,953					48,992
Lease liabilities			(1,429,629)	(433,157)
Trade payables and accrued liabilities								(1,321,940)	(778,164)
					$	440,276			$	782,625
Based on the above net exposures, as at December 31, 2021, a 10% change in the CAD to the USD exchange rate would impact the Company’s net loss by $35,877(2020 - $78,262).

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’sexposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s cash balances which are earning interest income based on US deposit referencerate. A 0.1% decrease in market interest rates would increase the Company’s net loss of $209,510 for the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020 - $71,000).

Fair value
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, other than the derivative liabilities which are measured at fair value, approximates the carrying amount.
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used toestimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
●									Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
●									Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
●									Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
Financial liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2021 consisted of the derivative liabilities, which include non-transferrable warrants and DSUs. The fair valueof DSUs is classified as level 1, and the fair value of the non-transferrable warrants are classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the derivative liabilities relating to the DSUs was measured using the quoted market price on the Nasdaq.

Shareholder Meetings

The Business Corporations Act provides that: (i) a general meetings of shareholders must be held in British Columbia, or may be held at a location outside BritishColumbia since our Articles do not restrict our Company from approving a location outside of British Columbia for the holding of the general meeting and the locationfor the meeting is approved by ordinary resolution, or the location for the meeting is approving in writing by the British Columbia Registrar of Companies before themeeting is held; (ii) directors must call an annual meeting of shareholders not later than 15 months after the last preceding annual meeting; (iii) for the purpose ofdetermining shareholders entitled to receive notice of or vote at meetings of shareholders, the directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for that determination,provided that such date shall not precede by more than two months or by less than 21 days the date on which the meeting is to be held; (iv) the holders of not less than5% of the issued shares entitled to vote at a meeting may requisition the directors to call a meeting of shareholders for the purposes stated in the requisition; (v) onlyshareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, our directors and our auditor are entitled to be present at a meeting of shareholders; and (vi) upon the application of a directoror shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting, the British Columbia Supreme Court may order a meeting to be called, held and conducted in a manner that the Courtdirects.

Limitations on Rights of Non-Canadians

Our Company is incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. There is no law or governmental decree or regulation in Canada thatrestricts the export or import of capital, or affects the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of common shares, other thanwithholding tax requirements. Any such remittances to United States residents are generally subject to withholding tax, however, no such remittances are likely in theforeseeable future. For additional information, see “Item 10. Additional Information - E. Taxation - Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations for United StatesResidents” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F.

There is no limitation imposed by Canadian law or by our Articles or other constituent documents of our Company on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote commonshares of our Company. However, the Investment Canada Act (Canada) has rules regarding certain acquisitions of shares by non-residents, along with other requirementsunder that legislation. For additional information, see “Item 10. Additional Information - B. Memorandum and Articles of Association – Limitations on Rights of Non-Canadians” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Warrants

As of December 31, 2021, we had 7,402,021 Warrants issued and outstanding.

As of March 22, 2022, we had 7,252,021 Warrants issued and outstanding.

Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of US$4.25 per WarrantShare (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants were immediately exercisable upon issuance, and will expire at 5:00 pm (New York time) on August 13, 2023 (the“Expiration Date”).

The Warrants have been issued pursuant to a warrant agent agreement dated as of August 9, 2018 (the “Warrant Agreement”) between our Company and VStockTransfer, LLC, as warrant agent (in such capacity, the “Warrant Agent”). Unless terminated earlier by the parties, the Warrant Agreement shall terminate 90 days after theearlier of the Expiration Date and the date on which no Warrants remain outstanding (the “Termination Date”). Any Warrants that remain unexercised on the TerminationDate shall be automatically exercised by way of a cashless exercise on that date, as described below.
Our Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement, No. 333-222814, on Form F-1 (as amended from time totime, the “Registration Statement”), for the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of certain securities, including the Warrantsand the underlying Warrant Shares. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on August 3, 2018.
The Warrants are in registered form and are evidenced by a global Warrant certificate (“Global Certificate”) in the form attached as Annex A to the Warrant Agreement.The Global Certificate has been deposited on behalf of our Company with a custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and registered in the name of Cede &Co., a nominee of DTC. In the event that the Warrants cease to be eligible for registration in the name of Cede & Co., as DTC’s nominee, or in circumstances where it isno longer necessary to have the Warrants so registered, our Company may instruct the Warrant Agent to cause DTC to deliver the Global Certificate to the Warrant Agentfor cancellation, and the Company will instruct the Warrant Agent to deliver to each holder of Warrants (each, a “Holder”) separate certificates evidencing Warrants, inthe form attached as Annex C to the Warrant Agreement.
Our Company has agreed to cause the Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of Warrants to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) tothe Holder by:
(a) crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian
	system (“DWAC”) if our Company is then a participant in such system, and either (i) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of theWarrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder, or (ii) the Warrant is being exercised by way of cashless exercise; and
(b) otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate registered in our Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee.
Such transmittal of Warrant Shares by the Transfer Agent to the Holder is to occur after the delivery to our Company of the Holder’s notice of exercise of Warrants (the“Notice of Exercise”) on that date (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”) that is the earlier of:
(a) two trading days thereafter; and
(b) the number of trading days comprising the Standard Settlement Period.
Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect towhich the Warrants have been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than inthe case of a cashless exercise) is received no later than the Warrant Share Delivery Date.
Under the Warrant Agreement, our Company cannot effect any exercise of a Warrant, and a Holder will not have any right to exercise any portion of a Warrant, if aftergiving effect to the issuance of Warrant Shares after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates, and anyother persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s affiliates would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.Except otherwise expressly provided for in the Warrant Agreement, beneficial ownership is to be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, andthe rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% (or, upon election by a Holder prior to the issuance of anyWarrants, 9.99%) of the number of common shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the common shares issuable upon exercise of theWarrant. The Holder, upon notice to our Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation inno event exceeds 9.99% of the number of common shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of common shares upon exercise of the Warrantheld by the Holder. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
If, upon exercise of the Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will, at its election, upon exercise, either pay a cashadjustment in respect of such fraction (in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price) or round the number of shares to be received by the holder upto the next whole number.

If our Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, our Company mustpay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the commonshares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per trading day (increasing to $20 per trading day on the fifth trading day after such liquidated damagesbegin to accrue) for each trading day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date, until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. We have agreedto maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable.
Under the Warrant Agreement:
	“Standard Settlement Period” is defined to mean the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of trading days, on our Company’s primary TradingMarket with respect to our common shares as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise;
	“Trading Market” is defined to mean any of the following markets or exchanges on which our common share are listed or quoted for trading on the date inquestion: the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the New York Stock Exchange; and
	“VWAP” is defined to mean, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if our common shares are then listed orquoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the common shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Marketon which the common share are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m.(New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the common share for such date (or the nearestpreceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the common shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices forthe common shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to itsfunctions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per common share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a common share asdetermined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants then outstanding and reasonably acceptableto our Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by our Company.
Under the Warrant Agreement, we must use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the current status of the prospectusincluded therein, or to file and maintain the effectiveness of another registration statement and another current prospectus covering the Warrants and the Warrant Shares,at any time that the Warrants are exercisable. We must provide to the Warrant Agent and each Holder prompt written notice of any time that we are unable to deliver theWarrant Shares via DTC transfer or otherwise without restrictive legend because:
(a) the SEC has issued a stop order with respect to the Registration Statement,
(b) the SEC otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently,
(c) our Company has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently,
(d) the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, or
(e) otherwise;
(each a “Restrictive Legend Event”).
If the Warrants cannot be exercised as a result of a Restrictive Legend Event, or if a Restrictive Legend Event occurs after a Holder has exercised Warrants but prior tothe delivery of the Warrant Shares, we must, at the election of the Holder, either (i) rescind the previously submitted notice of Warrant exercise, in which case we mustreturn all consideration paid for such Warrant Shares, or (ii) treat the attempted exercise as a cashless exercise, as described below, and refund the cash portion of theexercise price to the Holder. The Holder must make this election within five days of receipt of our notice of the Restrictive Legend Event.
If, following a Restrictive Legend Event, the Holder elects to proceed by way of a cashless exercise of the Warrants, the Holder will be entitled to receive the number ofWarrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A-B) (X) by (A), where:
	(A) = the last VWAP immediately preceding the date of exercise giving rise to the applicable “cashless exercise”, as set forth in the applicable Notice of
	Exercise;

(B) = the Exercise Price of the Warrant; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the Warrant in accordance with the terms of the Warrant if such exercise were bymeans of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
	The Warrant Agreement also provides that any Warrants that remain unexercised on the Termination Date shall be automatically exercised by way of a cashless exerciseon that date.
	If the Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, then, in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registeredcharacteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and we will not take any position contrary thereto.
	The Warrants are also subject to customary adjustment provisions, such as for stock dividends, subdivisions and the like, and certain fundamental transactions such asthose in which we directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effect any merger or consolidation of our Company with or into another entity, or we effectany sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets in one or a series of related transactions.
