D.	Risk Factors

We and our investors face a number of risks, which are described below.

Risk Factors Related to Our Business

The financial statements of our company have been prepared on a going concern basis.

We have prepared our financial statements on a “going concern” basis which presumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful commercialization of our sensor technology platforms that we currently have under development with our industry partners. Ultimately we must achieve a profitable level of operation through licensing fees, royalties and the commercial sale of our products. We will require additional financing in the interim to fund our activity.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in business. If the going concern assumption was not appropriate for our financial statements then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used. Such adjustments could be material.

At October 31, 2016 we had $288,128 cash on hand and our current monthly cash expenses were approximately $175,000. Our working capital position is ($4,316,730) at October 31, 2016. Subsequent to October 31, 2016, through to the date of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 20-F, we have raised an additional $788,600 through the issuance of convertible debentures and $143,365 through a series of private placements. Additionally, we collected $200,000 from development partners with respect to our ongoing joint product development projects.

We currently have no operating revenue.

We have not yet reported commercial revenues from licensing fees, royalties or product sales. If we fail to enter into license agreements or if we do not obtain purchase orders from potential customers, we will have no revenues. If we enter into such agreements the amount of the revenues we receive will depend on the terms we are able to secure from each licensee and the ability of licensees to compete in their particular market.

There are market risks relating to the sale of our sensor technology platforms.

We continued to develop applications of our magnetic sensor technology in 2016 working with our technical advisors and our strategic development partners. We are pursuing joint development agreements with potential strategic partners with the expectation that we will jointly develop sensor applications for use by these potential strategic partners. We believe that these current initiatives will result in revenues and cash flow to the Company in the future but there can be no assurance when and if such revenues will be achieved.

We may face competition from larger corporations which also sell sensor technology and who have greater financial resources than the Company.

Our success will in part be determined by the following factors which have not yet been fully and completely tested nor measured: the ability of manufacturers to incorporate the technology into existing manufacturing capabilities without significant retooling and material costs, price competitiveness and the differential performance advantages of our technology.

Additionally our ability to compete successfully will depend on elements outside of our control, including the rate at which customers incorporate our technology into their products, the success of such customers in selling those products, our protection of our intellectual property, the number, nature and success of our competitors and their product introductions and general market and economic conditions. Our success will depend on our ability to protect our intellectual property, to develop, introduce, and license or sell in a timely manner our technology or products incorporating our technology and to compete effectively on the basis of factors such as speed, density, die size and power consumption.

Failure to secure continued financing will cause our business to suffer.

Since there is no assurance that commercial revenues will be realized in future, we will need additional financing to continue our development and to successfully market our technology to potential licensees and strategic partners.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise sufficient financing in the future and the failure to do so would affect our ability to further develop our technology platforms and to market our products to existing and new potential customers.

Because much of our success and value depends on our ownership and use of intellectual property, our failure to protect our property could adversely affect our future growth and success.

Our success will depend on our ability to protect our intellectual property. We rely primarily on patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as nondisclosure agreements and other methods to protect our proprietary technology and processes. Despite our efforts to do so, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology, develop similar technology independently or design around our patents. Policing unauthorized use of our products is expensive and difficult, and we cannot be certain that all required steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation or infringement of our intellectual property.

Intellectual property claims against us, no matter how groundless, could cause our business to suffer.

Our future success and competitive position depend in part on our ability to retain rights to our technology, including any improvements that may be made on that technology from time to time by us or on our behalf. Our technology is patented or is subject to pending patent applications in the United States and abroad and we know of no challenge that has been made either against our technology or our rights to it. We have no reason to believe that any such challenge might be made or that the grounds for any such challenge exist. If any intellectual property litigation were to be commenced against us, no matter how groundless, the result could be a significant expense to us, adversely affecting further development, licensing and sales, diverting the efforts of our technical and management personnel and, in the event of an adverse outcome, damages and possible restrictions on the further development, licensing and use of our technology. There can be no assurance that any of our pending patent applications will be issued as patents or that any issued patent will not be determined to be invalid at a later date.

We have a history of losses, and we may continue to generate losses in future.

To date, we have operated as a product development company and have not been profitable. Unless and until we are able to successfully commercialize our technology applications, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues in future periods and we may not be able to attain profitability.

The further development of our sensor technology may require significant additional capital which we may have to fund directly if we are unable to secure financing from development partners. Therefore, we may incur expenses without receiving equal and offsetting revenues at least until we are able to license our technology to third parties. This may result in net operating losses until we can generate an acceptable level of revenues. Further, even if we achieve operating revenues, there can be no assurance that such revenues will be sufficient to fund continuing operations.

The likelihood of the success of our business plan must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with developing and expanding early stage businesses and the competitive environment in which we operate.

We will be dependent upon the success of a limited range of products.

The range of products we intend to commercialize is currently limited to applications of our sensor technology. If we are not successful in commercializing our technology platforms, or if there is not adequate demand for such technology or the market for such technology develops less rapidly than we anticipate, we may not have the capability to shift our resources to the development of alternative products, on a timely basis. This could limit future revenues and profitability.

We may not realize income from the licensing of our technologies if our licensees fail to commercialize the products that incorporate these technologies.

In order to generate revenues from our sensor technology platforms, we will need to enter into licensing arrangements with third parties who can integrate our technology into products that will gain acceptance in the market. We have not yet entered into any licensing agreements, and there is no assurance that we will be able to do so on acceptable terms in future. To the extent we are successful in licensing our technology; in general we will seek upfront payments plus ongoing royalties based on anticipated commercial sales of the products into which our technology is incorporated. Our ability to realize royalties will thus depend upon the successful manufacture and commercialization of such products, which will be primarily within the control of the licensee. There is no assurance that such licensees will be successful in marketing and selling such products. In addition, licensees could decide to delay or discontinue the commercialization of products for financial or other business reasons. Even if our licensees succeed in developing products that incorporate our technology, in all likelihood a significant amount of development and testing will be required before such products can be introduced to market. Therefore we may not receive royalty income for a substantial period following the commencement of any licensing arrangements. If our licensees are unable to commercialize products on a timely basis, they may lose market share to competing or alternative technologies. Any failure by the companies to which we license our technologies to successfully develop marketable products would have an adverse effect on our future royalty payments and financial condition.

In order to commercialize our future products, we will need to establish a sales and marketing capability.

At present, we have limited sales and marketing capability and our financial resources have been limited. We will need to add marketing and sales expertise and must also develop the necessary supporting distribution channels. Although we believe we can build the required infrastructure either in-house or through strategic relationships, we may not be successful in doing so. Failure to establish a sales force and distribution network would have an adverse effect on our ability to grow our business.

We depend on key personnel.

Our senior managers and employees are Joseph Fuda, who serves as our Chief Executive Officer; Steven Van Fleet, who has primary responsibility for business development and who serves as President of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Micromem Applied Sensor Technology Inc (MAST) and Dan Amadori, who serves as our Chief Financial Officer. We have engaged the services of several engineering/technical consulting firms to assist in converting our development efforts to commercialization. Our success depends on our ability to retain certain of our senior management and key technical personnel, our ability to attract and retain additional highly skilled personnel in the future and to maintain our working relationships with our engineering and technical consulting firms with which we subcontract our development work.

The depressed oil and gas sector places our development projects at risk.

Certain of our development partners are engaged primarily in the oil and gas sector. With the recent depressed market conditions for this sector, there is a risk that such companies could defer or cancel previously established capital expenditure programs or product development initiatives. If these situations arose with our development partners in this sector, our related development projects could be at risk of delays or cancellation.

We may be materially affected by global economic and political conditions.

Our ability to generate revenue may be adversely affected by uncertainty in the global economy and could also be affected by unstable global political conditions. Terrorist attacks or acts of war could significantly disrupt our operations and the operations of our future customers, suppliers, distributors, or resellers. We cannot predict the potential impact on our financial condition or our results of operations should such events occur.

We may be materially affected by rapid technological change and evolving industry standards.

Short product life cycles are inherent in high-technology companies due to rapid technological change and evolving industry standards. Our future financial condition and results of operations depend on our ability to respond effectively to these changes. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully do so or adapt our current products to new technologies or new industry standards. In addition, our customers may be reluctant to adopt new technologies and standards or they may prefer competing technologies and standards. Because the technology market changes so rapidly, it is difficult for us to predict the rate of adoption of our technology.

We may be materially affected by risks associated with new product development.

Our new product development is complex and requires us to investigate and evaluate multiple alternatives, as well as plan the design and manufacture of those alternatives selected for further development. Our development efforts could be adversely affected by hardware and software design flaws, product development delays, changes in operating systems and changes in industry standards. The manufacturing of new products involves integrating complex designs and processes, coordinating with suppliers for parts and components and managing manufacturing capacities to accommodate forecasted demand. If we are not successful in meeting these requirements, this could adversely affect our ability to introduce new products on a timely basis.

Our operations may be materially affected by the risks associated with the continued developments and protection of our intellectual property.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to develop new intellectual property or that we will continue to have it developed for us. We rely on a combination of U.S. patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws to protect our intellectual property rights. We have decided to file patent and trademark registration applications with certain foreign governments but we may not have appropriate coverage in all jurisdictions where we may sell or license our product in future.

We enter into confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements relating to our intellectual property with our employees and consultants. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain or use our intellectual property. Monitoring the unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult and we cannot be certain that we will be able to adequately protect our intellectual property in the future.

There are foreign exchange risks associated with our Company.

Because we have historically raised funds in both U.S. and Canadian markets and a portion of our costs are denominated in Canadian dollars, our funding is subject to foreign exchange risks. A decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar could affect our costs and potential future profitability. We do not currently hold forward exchange contracts or other hedging instruments to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars so as to offset potential currency rate fluctuations.

Risk Factors Related to Our Common Shares

Our stock is subject to the penny stock regulations, which may discourage brokers from effecting transactions in the stock and adversely affect the stock's market price and liquidity.

Our common shares constitute “penny stock” under applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The penny stock regulations impose significant restrictions on brokers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. Broker-dealers participating in sales of our stock will be subject to the so called “penny stock” regulations covered by Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. Under the rule, broker-dealers must furnish to all investors in penny stocks a risk disclosure document required by the rule, make a special suitability determination of the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. The penny stock regulations may discourage brokers from effecting transactions in the common shares. This would decrease market liquidity, adversely affect market price and make it difficult for you to use the common shares as collateral.

The rights of our shareholders may differ from the rights typically afforded to shareholders of a U.S. corporation.

We are incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), also referred to herein as the OBCA. The rights of holders of our common shares are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, including the OBCA, by the applicable laws of Canada, and by our Articles of Incorporation and all amendments thereto, also referred to herein as the Articles, and our By-laws. These rights differ in certain respects from the rights of shareholders in typical U.S. corporations. The principal differences include without limitation the following:

Under the OBCA, we have a lien on any common share registered in the name of a shareholder or the shareholder's legal representative for any debt owed by the shareholder to us. Under U.S. state law, corporations generally are not entitled to any such statutory liens in respect of debts owed by shareholders.

With regard to certain matters, we must obtain approval of our shareholders by way of at least 662/3% of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders duly called for such purpose being cast in favor of the proposed matter. Such matters include without limitation: (a) the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of our assets out of the ordinary course of our business; and (b) any amendments to our Articles including, but not limited to, amendments affecting our capital structure such as the creation of new classes of shares, changing any rights, privileges, restrictions or conditions in respect of our shares, or changing the number of issued or authorized shares, as well as amendments changing the minimum or maximum number of directors set forth in the Articles. Under U.S. state law, the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a corporation generally requires approval by a majority of the outstanding shares, although in some cases approval by a higher percentage of the outstanding shares may be required. In addition, under U.S. state law the vote of a majority of the shares is generally sufficient to amend a company's certificate of incorporation, including amendments affecting capital structure or the number of directors. Under certain circumstances the board of directors may also have the ability to change the number of directors under U.S. state law.

Pursuant to our By-laws, two persons present in person or represented by proxy and each entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of shareholders. Under U.S. state law, a quorum generally requires the presence in person or by proxy of a specified percentage of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting, and such percentage is generally not less than one-third of the number of shares entitled to vote.

Under rules of the Ontario Securities Commission, a meeting of shareholders must be called for consideration and approval of certain transactions between a corporation and any “related party” (as defined in such rules). A “related party” is defined to include, among other parties, directors and senior officers of a corporation, holders of more than 10% of the voting securities of a corporation, persons owning a block of securities that is otherwise sufficient to affect materially the control of the corporation, and other persons that manage or direct, to a substantial degree, the affairs or operations of the corporation. At such shareholders' meeting, votes cast by any related party who holds common shares and has an interest in the transaction may not be counted for the purposes of determining whether the minimum number of required votes have been cast in favor of the transaction. Under U.S. state law, a transaction between a corporation and one or more of its officers or directors can generally be approved either by the shareholders or a by majority of the directors who do not have an interest in the transaction. Corporations that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or are quoted on Nasdaq may also be required to have transactions with officers and directors and other related party transactions reviewed by an audit committee comprised of independent directors.

There is no limitation imposed by our Articles or other charter documents on the right of a non-resident to hold or vote our common shares. However, the Investment Canada Act , also referred to herein as the Investment Act, as amended by the World Trade Organization Agreement Implementation Act, also referred to herein as the WTOA Act, generally prohibits implementation of a reviewable investment by an individual, government or agency thereof, corporation, partnership, trust or joint venture that is not a “Canadian,” as defined in the Investment Act, unless, after review, the minister responsible for the Investment Act is satisfied that the investment is likely to be a net benefit to Canada. An investment in our common shares by a non-Canadian would be reviewable under the Investment Act if it were an investment to acquire direct control of Micromem, and the value of our assets were CDN $5.0 million or more. However, an investment in our shares by a national of a country (other than Canada) that is a member of the World Trade Organization or has a right of permanent residence in such a country (or by a corporation or other entity that is a “WTO Investor-controlled entity” pursuant to detailed rules set out in the Investment Act) would be reviewable at a higher threshold of CDN $344 million in assets, except for certain economic sectors with respect to which the lower threshold would apply. A non-Canadian, whether a national of a WTO member or otherwise, would acquire control of Micromem for purposes of the Investment Act if he or she acquired a majority of our common shares. The acquisition of less than a majority, but at least one-third of our common shares, would also be presumed to be an acquisition of control of Micromem, unless it could be established that Micromem was not controlled in fact by the acquirer through the ownership of voting shares. The United States is a WTO Member for purposes of the Investment Act. Certain transactions involving our common shares would be exempt from the Investment Act, including:

	•	an acquisition of our common shares if the acquisition were made in connection with the person's business as a trader or dealer in securities;
	•	an acquisition of control of Micromem in connection with the realization of a security interest granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for any purpose related to the provisions of the Investment Act; and
	•	an acquisition of control of Micromem by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control of Micromem, through the ownership of voting interests, remains unchanged. Under U.S. law, except in limited circumstances, restrictions generally are not imposed on the ability of non- residents to hold a controlling interest in a U.S. corporation.

U.S. shareholders may not be able to enforce civil liabilities against us.

Micromem is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario. Additionally, a number of our directors and executive officers are non-residents of the U.S., and all or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside the U.S. As a result, should any investor commence an action in the U.S. against Micromem or its directors or executive officers, Micromem or its directors or officers, as the case may be, may be able to insist that any action against them take place in the jurisdiction of the Province of Ontario. In addition, if an investor were to obtain a U.S. judgment against Micromem or its directors or executive officers, there is doubt as to the enforceability of such U.S. judgment in Canada.

We do not anticipate paying dividends.

We have never paid a dividend on our securities and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

We may need to issue additional securities which may cause our shareholders to experience dilution.

Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional common shares, without par value, or other of our securities without the prior consent or vote of our shareholders. The issuance of additional common shares would dilute the proportionate equity interest and voting power of our shareholders.

The price of our common shares and volume of our common shares may be volatile.

Our shareholders may be unable to sell a significant number of our common shares on the OTC QX without a significant reduction in the market price of the shares.

Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be able to meet the listing requirements of, or achieve listing on, any other stock exchange. The market price of the common shares may be affected significantly by factors such as fluctuations in our operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors, action by governmental agencies against us or the industry in general, developments with respect to patents or proprietary rights, public concern as to the safety of products developed by us or others, the interest of investors, traders and others in public companies such as ours and general market conditions. In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly small capitalization companies, have experienced fluctuations which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or business prospects of such companies.

ITEM 4.

INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.	History and Development of Our Company

Micromem is a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, with principal executive offices at 121 Richmond Street West, Suite 304, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2K1 (416.364.6513) . Micromem was incorporated on October 21, 1985 as Mine Lake Minerals Inc. We subsequently changed our name to Avanti Capital Corp. on June 23, 1988, to Avanti Corp International Inc. on April 30, 1992 and to Micromem Technologies Inc. on January 11, 1999 in connection with our acquisition of Pageant Technologies Incorporated, also referred to herein as Pageant International. Our website address is www.micromeminc.com. The information on our website is not part of this Annual Report on Form 20-F. We have included our website address in this document as an inactive textual reference only.

The Evolution of Micromem from Memory to Sensor Based Client Solutions

Micromem Applied Sensors Technologies, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary (“MAST”) was incorporated in 2008 in the State of Delaware. MAST was formed in connection with a contract with BAE Systems in Nashua, New Hampshire. BAE Systems is a Department of Defense trusted facility, which can only do business with U.S. entities (ITAR regulations). BAE Systems’ interest was in the potential to utilize our MRAM technology in a radiation-hardened environment for military applications. At the time of contract, Micromem had not taken the MRAM from the university research environment into a foundry, so the initial contract with BAE Systems was to use the patented MRAM design and manufacture and deliver a memory cell from a GaAs foundry. During this work it was determined that the Hall sensor, which was integral to the MRAM design, had several performance characteristics that by itself, as a product, would potentially create value for MAST.

Frost & Sullivan was contracted by MAST in 2009 to assess the market opportunities for a late entry into the Hall sensor market. The Hall sensor market in 2009 was robust at an estimated $1.9 billion USD. The market barriers were: mature market, declining margins and heavy competition. A decision was taken to not enter the Hall sensor component market for the above reasons. A decision was taken to explore the market opportunities associated with creating unique sensor based solutions that revolved around our patented Hall sensor technology. The MRAM go forward strategy remained with Micromem.

An outside marketing firm was hired to promote the Company. It was quickly learned that the uniqueness of our products made a traditional marketing firm relationship ineffective and that relationship was terminated. Promotion of the Company reverted back to the development of a MAST website and word of mouth marketing at regional technical conferences. Through these endeavors, a decision was taken to internally develop, at our own cost, proof of concepts for products that we had gleaned through our marketing to have potential market value. These included a magnetic gold sensor for drilling plug analysis, an oil condition sensor for automotive use and an oil/gas aerial exploration platform. Provisional patents were created on this work.

A potential revenue-generating opportunity emerged in August 2010 when Lux Research contacted us on behalf of their client, a world leader in oil production. They were looking for companies that could create extremely small foot print magnetic sensor solutions for down hole use in production oil fields. MAST was subsequently engaged by this client to develop a sensor platform for detecting four nanometer magnetic particles in a flowing oil stream at a concentration less than 1 ppb. Another revenue generating opportunity came in 2011 from GSI Westwind, a supplier for high speed air bearing motors. MAST replaced the incumbent Hall sensor supplier and delivered a unique circuit board form factor that incorporated the smallest Hall sensor in the world.

It became clear at this point in the genesis of the Company that MAST had to find an effective means to disseminate its message to a larger market audience. It was now evident that a significant market space existed for companies that could leverage MEMS/Nano fabrication methodologies to create unique combinations of sensors to provide new solutions to business problems. In 2011 MAST became aware of the NineSigma Open Innovation model. Nine sigma’s core services connect innovation-seeking companies to the best solutions, capabilities and partners around the world. MAST's relationship with NineSigma has provided us common ground access to the Global Fortune 1000 companies and has resulted in a robust future sales proposal pipeline and the first time in the Company's history an ability to forecast revenue.

In 2011 a decision was taken to stop research and development effort in the MRAM market space. This decision was taken in part due to the high capital demand for staying current in the rapidly changing technology and equally important, the MRAM market has not grown at the anticipated growth rates. Micromem has amassed multiple memory patents and in 2013 began efforts to value the patent portfolio and arrange for a sale of these assets. Integral to the MRAM design is our patented Hall sensor. MAST is carrying this device forward in certain of our sensor platforms.

Until 2014, Micromem funded virtually all of its research and development initiatives. Our main priority has been to provide customers with sensor based platform solutions that address their difficult business problems. A recent study by NineSigma states that less than 3% of the Fortune 1000 global companies admit that they have sufficient in house talent and knowledge to be able to take advantage of technologies that can help them improve their business. Our sensor platform solutions address three primary areas of creating value for our clients:

	•	Using a MEMS and/or Nano scale pallet, we are able to combine disparate sensor modalities into a common, integrated solution that brings the exact tools in play in solving the target issue. Competitive solutions tend to force fit less than optimum sensor combinations in an effort to sell their standard offerings.
	•	Although our solutions are custom designed for each client, our processes leading to the solution are automated and the end result is a cost effective solution with a differentially higher return on investment for our clients.
	•	Our Open Innovation approach to solving client problems allows us to bring together already proven sensor technologies in different market spaces allowing us to apply them in new applications in new markets. This significantly reduces the time to revenue generation by both MAST and our client and it reduces risk of project failure.

By 2015 we had advanced a number of our product development initiatives under joint product development agreements with our clients Chevron, Castrol, Flextronics and Eversource Energy. Our pipeline of development projects expanded. By October 31, 2015 several of our active projects had advanced to the stage where the proof of concept and the prototype units were completed. We ended our fiscal year in preparation to advance to field trials of our production units in 2016.

B.	Business Overview

Prior to 2008 we were engaged in the development of memory technology. We deemphasized these continued efforts at that time and ceased all such activity by 2011. We have been actively developing our sensor technology platforms for multiple commercial applications since 2008. Our technology combines the use of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) for our sensor platforms.

Update of Product Development Activity at October 31, 2016

Chevron: We began working with Chevron in 2013 when we entered into a joint project development agreement (“JPDA”). The proposed development work in that JPDA specified a series of milestones in keeping with our standard development process.

The initial thrust of the work was to develop and test fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles in the application of interwell tracers. We successfully completed the proof of concept and prototype phases. This work progressed in 2014 and the go forward thrust of our development work was to develop a well head real time detection platform for the detection of existing interwell tracer chemicals to measurement levels as low as 300 parts per trillion. By October 31, 2014, Chevron had funded approximately $175,000 of the development costs we had incurred to that point of time.

In 2015, this work was significantly advanced. Chevron funded a portion of our development activity to the extent of $1,545,132.

The significant developments in fiscal year 2016 are presented as below:

	a)	In November 2015, we completed the nanoparticle tracer testing in testing facilities in Texas. We worked extensively with key subcontractors building towards a laboratory demonstration late in 2016 designed to differentiate between 8-9 interwell tracers simultaneously. These tests provided positive results in the demonstration. We invoiced Chevron for $193,901 and received payment in the first quarter of 2016.

	b)	Our follow up discussions with Chevron continued through to late March 2016 as to the go forward steps. At that point, Chevron indicated that they wanted to pursue certain specific tracers in the go forward work as the next phase of the development project.

	c)	Our discussions continued through July 2016, at which point we executed an addendum to our contractual work with Chevron to complete the next round of tracer tests. An initial budget of $400,000 for this work was established and we received $200,000 in August, 2016.

	d)	We began working with our subcontractor to move forward with this phase of the development work. This work progressed well throughout the fall and a series of status reports were issued continuing through late December.

	e)	We received an additional $100,000 for this work from Chevron in December.

	f)	In early February 2017, this round of testing was completed and we believe that these testing results were successful. Chevron is continuing to evaluate these test results. We anticipate initial commercial orders once this evaluation is completed.

	g)	During 2016, we engaged in discussions with a large U.S. based process control manufacturing company as a candidate to take forward the production of the ultimate commercial units. These discussions continue.

We previously executed a development contract with Chevron in April 2015 for the development of a cement integrity sensor platform. Given the Company’s cash constraints in 2016, this development initiative was not substantially pursued in 2016, but continues to form part of our go forward pipeline in 2017.

Castrol: We entered into a JPDA with Castrol in December 2014. The development project is to develop a MEMS solution for real time detection of wear elements in lubricating fluids for deployment initially in non-automotive markets and thereafter for the automotive market. During 2015 we were successful in completing the initial phases of that agreement whereby we have now provided the initial prototypes to Castrol and these have been accepted. We received $488,500 as payment from Castrol as of October 31, 2015.

Castrol has commissioned us to produce initial field units for testing. These units are larger than the ultimate product intended for the automotive market.

At October 31, 2015, we reported $926,777 of deferred development costs relating to this project. We have filed provisional patents associated with this development work with the USPTO.

The significant developments in fiscal year 2016 are as presented below:

	a)	We continued our development work with Castrol through March 2016. We invoiced Castrol $250,000 and this amount was collected in January, 2016 . We met with the Castrol team in the UK in June 2016. We agreed to move forward in the second half of 2016 with the development of the fieldable units in the immediate term and we agreed to continue the development plans for the miniaturization for automotive use as the final end product. These discussions were again confirmed in a follow-up in-person meeting in July 2016 with Castrol.

	b)	We worked with our subcontractor to develop an overall budget for the next phase of the miniaturization work and for the fieldable units. We invoiced Castrol for $100,000 relating to the fieldable unit work in late fall. This amount was paid in December, 2016.

	c)	We have since engaged with Castrol’s commercialization teams and are pursuing Castrol’s marine diesel division for the fieldable units.

	d)	In September 2016, we met with a large manufacturer/marketer of process control equipment and have engaged in discussions with that group as a leading candidate to manufacture and market the eventual miniaturized end product for the automotive sector.

	e)	We have developed with Castrol a critical path towards completion of the miniaturized product for automotive use over the course of 2017-2018. The budgets were established and our subcontractor is working with us to execute this development program.

	f)	As a direct result of our Castrol dealings on the fieldable units, in November 2016, we were approached by a large European energy company who has expressed a direct interest in our fieldable units. These discussion and negotiations continue.

Flextronics: In 2014 we executed a JPDA with Flextronics to test, manufacture and, ultimately, to commercialize the Company’s patented automotive oil pan plug sensor suite for automotive OEMS. This JPDA developed after we had spent several years pursuing a proof of concept with GM.

The development contract that was established with Flextronics in 2014 remains in place. The Company has contracted with Flextronics to conduct specific work.

It is anticipated that we will engage with Flextronics in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 to identify the timing for the completion of the work going forward.

Other projects:

In our fiscal year 2015 annual report we reported that we were working with Northeast Utilities (or Eversource) for the development of a sensor platform design to detect partial discharges inside a transformer. Additionally, we reported that we had begun development work with Northeast Utilities on a low cost power line conditioning monitoring device designed for transmission power lines.

Given the timing to market these opportunities, we reflected a writedown of our investment of $2.27 million against these projects in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2015. The Company believes that there is substantial opportunity to further develop these technology applications in future. It retains the intellectual property on the work that it has completed. While there were no substantive developments or new progress in 2016, these projects remain as active in our 2017 pipeline, perhaps with Eversource or with other utilities.

On July 31, 2016, we wrote down the remaining value of the deferred development costs to nil while we continue to pursue the continued development and ultimate commercialization of these projects.

The Company's investment in deferred development costs between 2013-2016 is summarized as below.

On July 31, 2016, we reserved the total balance of deferred development costs and recorded a writedown of $3,638,118. The Company continues to pursue all of our active projects and our product pipeline opportunities; however, the decision to reserve these balances was made due to the uncertainty of timing of realization of these assets.

Intellectual Property

We believe that protection of our intellectual property is important to our ability to generate revenues from our technology in the future. We hold issued patents and pending patent applications have also entered into confidentiality and other agreements with third parties and our employees to protect our intellectual property and trade secrets. We intend to continue to actively pursue the protection of our intellectual property. Our management will determine from time to time the jurisdictions where protection is appropriate. This determination will be based on a number of factors including the state of development of our technology, the importance of a particular market for our technology, the costs of pursuing patent protection in a jurisdiction and our financial position at the time.

The Company has been active in building its intellectual property portfolio during 2016 as it has furthered the above-noted development projects. We have engaged a Washington, DC based law firm to assist us in these efforts. The Company incurred $192,873 of patent related costs in 2016.

We believe that the Company has broad and valuable interests in its intellectual property that it has developed through October 31, 2016. Specifically, we note that:

	a)	Four patents have been issued to date by the U.S. patent office for our Multimodal condition sensor platform and system thereof. We expect two additional patents to be awarded in 2017. We also have provisional patents filed in various international jurisdictions for this intellectual property.

	b)	U.S. patent filings have also been submitted and are pending for:

	i.	System and method to monitor power lines. We have also filed provisional patents in several international jurisdictions for the system and method to monitor power lines.

	ii.	System for real time monitoring of power line transformers.

	iii.	MEMS sensor and methods to determine cement integrity.

	iv.	MEMS implementation of a LIBS detection of wear metals in lubricants.

In June 2016, we settled the litigation with Dreifus Associates Limited (“DAL”) which had been pending since late 2014. As part of the settlement, the Company received the full assignment of DAL’s alleged interests in our Multimodal condition sensor platform and system thereof.

In 2015 the Company wrote off its residual investment of approximately $67,000 that related to the original memory related patents that it holds but which it has not pursued since it abandoned further development efforts on its memory related technology in 2008.

With respect to our memory related patents for which we have no future plans to further develop, we began in 2013 to attempt to monetize these through the potential sale of such patents. We wrote down our net investment in these patents to nominal value in 2015.

Share Capital

At October 31, 2016 the Company had 204,388,569 common shares outstanding (2015: 197,176,368). Additionally, the Company has 4,395,000 stock options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $0.45 per share (2015: 9,817,000 options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $0.31 per share).

Changes to Our Board of Directors and Management:

Our 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on April 26, 2016. Joseph Fuda, David Sharpless, Steven Van Fleet, Oliver Nepomuceno, Larry Blue, Alex Dey, and Brian Von Herzen were reelected to serve on our Board of Directors. Salvatore Fuda did not stand for reelection to our Board of Directors. Craig Carlson resigned as a Director of the Company in June 2015. Messrs. Joseph Fuda, Dan Amadori and Steven Van Fleet continue to serve as officers of the Company.

Equity Financing Transactions:

In the fiscal year ending October 31, 2016, the Company completed two private placements for cash and received gross proceeds of $110,000 and issued a total of 366,668 common shares.

In the fiscal year ending October 31, 2016, the Company raised $751,273 from the exercise by officers, directors and employees of 3,756,366 common share options.

During the 2016 fiscal year, the Company secured additional financing of $2,490,333 through fourteen (14) bridge loans from investors. The maturity dates of these loans at inception varied from two to six months. The prescribed interest rates vary from 1% to 3% per month. A conversion feature has been provided in each case whereby the investor has the option to convert the loan into common shares at a conversion price prescribed at the inception of the loan. Seven (7) of these bridge loans are denominated in $CDN and the remaining seven bridge loans are denominated in $USD. In certain cases the terms of the bridge loans were renegotiated at their maturity dates with new terms established.

Of the bridge loans secured in 2016, two $USD loans totaling $60,000 were repaid at their maturity dates and a third bridge loan in the amount of $107,000 (principal and interest) was converted to common shares at its maturity date. The remaining bridge loans secured were extended at their maturity dates. These loans are outstanding at October 31, 2016 with new maturity dates ranging from June 2017 to November 2017.

In 2016 the Company issued 1,517,143 common shares to two (2) creditors to settle outstanding accounts payable due to these creditors in the amount of $295,312. Additionally, the Company issued 312,500 common shares with a value of $62,500 as partial consideration of the settlement of the 2014 litigation with DAL. This litigation was settled on June 29, 2016.

During 2015, the Company raised $565,777 from the exercise by warrant holders of 2,988,876 common share purchase warrants. On October 31, 2015, there were no remaining warrants outstanding.

In the fiscal year ending October 31, 2015, the Company raised $1,153,007 from the exercise by officers, directors and employees of 4,428,000 common share options.

In the fiscal year ending October 31, 2015, the Company completed two private placements and received gross proceeds of $175,000 and issued a total of 422,768 common shares.

Between August to October 2015, the Company secured a series of bridge loans from investors totaling $1,287,500 CDN ($976,673 US). These loans are secured by a floating charge on the assets of the Company. The maturity date of the loans were originally set as 30 days in each case and have been renewed by the investors through November 2015. The interest rate on the loans ranges from 2% to 3% per month. These bridge loans were not convertible into common shares as at October 31, 2015. One of the bridge loans obtained in the amount of $300,000 CDN ($229,446 US) plus accrued interest of $6,000 CDN ($4,588 US) was repaid on September 4, 2015. In 2016 these bridge loans were extended with revised terms. At October 31, 2016 the total amount outstanding is $1,196,638 with an interest rate of 2% per month, convertible to common shares at a price of $0.25 CDN ($0.19 USD) per share. The loans have been extended to October 31, 2017.

In August 2015, the Company secured a bridge loan of $200,000 from an investor. The loan is secured by a floating charge on the assets of the Company within a maturity date of November 1, 2015. The interest rate on the loan is calculated at 3% per month, payable is arrears. This bridge loan was not convertible into common shares at October 31, 2015. In 2016 this bridge loan was extended with revised terms. At October 31, 2016, the total amount outstanding is $205,828 with an interest rate of 2% per month, convertible to common shares at a price of $0.30 per share. This loan has been extended to November 2, 2017.

In 2014 the Company realized $6,801,619 from the exercise of 27,410,717 common share purchase warrants.

In 2014 the Company settled $8,353 of third party accounts payable balances through the issuance of 17,081 common shares.

In 2014 the Company extended for a period of six months the expiration date for 1,405,026 common share purchase warrants which would have otherwise expired in 2014. The exercise price for 1,105,026 of these warrants was changed from $0.41 and $0.45 per warrant to $0.50 per warrant. The strike price remained unchanged for the balance of the warrants at $0.55 per warrant.

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets comprise the costs which the Company has capitalized relating to the technical expertise and knowhow that the Company has developed with respect to the commercialization efforts relating to its sensor technology. In 2012, the Company determined that it had sufficiently advanced its expertise and product knowledge relating to the general commercialization efforts for its sensor technology in multiple industry vertical applications. In 2016, we recorded $19,352 of amortization expense during the year and reserved the balance of $38,075 at fiscal year end, leaving a nil balance at October 31, 2016.

Environmental Matters:

We are subject to various environmental protection regulations imposed by the government in the jurisdiction where we conduct our development work. We are not aware of any current or pending environmental protection laws or regulations that would have a material impact on our capital expenditure requirements or competitive position.

Organizational Structure

In November, 2007, the Company incorporated Micromem Applied Sensors Technology, Inc. (“MAST”) as a Delaware-based wholly-owned subsidiary. MAST has an office in New York City and is being managed by Steven Van Fleet, its President and a director of Micromem. MAST is pursuing a number of potential strategic joint development agreements with industry partners.

B.	Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Liquidity

We have not yet realized commercial revenues from the exploitation of our technology platforms. We currently do not have positive cash flow from operations and will not realize positive cash flow until we license or directly produce and sell products utilizing our technology platforms.

We currently have no lines of credit available. We have, to date, relied on obtaining equity financing from investors through private placements, through the exercise by shareholders of common share purchase warrants, through the exercise of common stock options by officers and directors, and through bridge loans that the Company has secured in order to meet our cash flow needs until we can generate sustainable revenues. At October 31, 2016 we had a working capital deficiency of $4,316,730 (2015: $2,049,302) including cash on hand of $288,128 (2015: $158,568) and our monthly overhead cash expenses approximate $175,000. Since October 31, 2016 we have raised an additional $788,600 of bridge loan financing and $143,365 of financing from six private placements. We have also received $200,000 of additional funding from our development partners.

We have granted to our directors, officers and other employees a number of options to purchase shares at prices that are at or above market price on the date of grant. None of the optionees has any obligation to exercise their options and there can be no guarantee that we will realize any funds from these options.

Capital Resources

We had nil capital expenditures in 2016; in 2015, we made $1,287 of capital expenditures; and in 2014 we made $16,508 of capital expenditures.

C.	Research and Development:

Under IFRS, research costs are expensed in the period incurred. Development expenses are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria for deferral and amortization under IFRS, which criteria is the translation of research findings or other knowledge into a plan for the technology prior to commercial production or use.

D.	Trend Information:

The market applications for “smart” sensors are expanding; there are potential applications that could be utilized in virtually every industry vertical.

Our prospects for commercial revenues are dependent upon the successful completion of all milestones in the development contracts that we have renewed to date, obtaining additional development contracts with new customers and upon the customers deciding to proceed with commercial orders once these development contracts are successfully completed.

E.	Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

We are not party to any off-balance sheet arrangements except for operating lease commitments. In addition, we have no unconsolidated special purpose financing or partnership entities.

F.	Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations:

A summary of our financial commitments as of October 31, 2016 is as below:

		Payments due by period
		Total		Less than 1		1-3 years		3-5 years	More than 5
				year					years
Operating lease obligations	$	204,652	$	25,523	$	97,325	$	81,804	-

Purchase obligations		4,023,776		2,899,593		1,124,183		-	-

Total:	$	4,228,428	$	2,925,116	$	1,221,508	$	81,804	-

President	$21,333 USD
President, MAST	$19,000 USD
CFO	$12,500 CDN ($9,438 USD)

Critical Accounting Policies:

Our significant accounting policies are set forth in our consolidated financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with management's discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates set forth below.

Our consolidated financial statements for the period have been prepared in accordance with IFRS which, in our case conforms in all material respects with U.S. GAAP except for the accounting for development expenditures reported, for intangible assets, warrant modification and modification of the conversion feature of bridge loans reported in the fiscal years ended October 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

We have not yet realized commercial revenues from the exploitation of our technology. Under IFRS, research costs are expensed in the period incurred. Development expenses are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria for deferral and amortization under IFRS which is the translation of research findings or other knowledge into a plan for the technology prior to commercial production or use. Under U.S. GAAP all development expenditures are expensed as incurred. As at October 31, 2016, the Company capitalized $nil (2015: $3,070,299) of development costs and capitalized nil (2015: $58,057) as intangible assets under IFRS.

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions which can affect the reported balances. In determining estimates of net recoverable amounts and net realizable values, or whether there has been a permanent impairment in value, we rely on assumptions regarding applicable industry performance and prospects, as well as general business and economic conditions that prevail and are expected to prevail. Assumptions underlying asset valuations are limited by the availability of reliable comparable data and the uncertainty of predictions concerning future events.

Accounts recorded in foreign currency have been converted to United States dollars as follows: current assets and current liabilities at the prevailing exchange rates at the end of the year; other assets at historical rates; revenues and expenses are translated at the three month average monthly exchange rate per quarter which rate approximates the rate of exchange prevailing at the transaction dates; and gains and losses resulting from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates are included in the determination of income.

G.	Contingencies:

A.	We have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers and certain of our employees in accordance with our By-laws. We maintain insurance policies that may provide coverage against certain claims.

B.	The Company may be subject to litigation, claims and governmental and regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In such cases, the Company would accrue a loss contingency for these matters when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

H.	Translation of Foreign Currencies:

Our functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Accounts recorded in foreign currency have been converted to United States dollars as follows: Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the consolidated balance sheet dates; non-monetary assets are translated using the historical rate of exchange in effect at the translation dates; revenues and expenses are translated using the three month average rate of exchange per quarter, which rate approximates the rate of exchange prevailing at the transaction dates; and gains and losses resulting from the translation are included in the determination of net loss for the period.

Summary of Directors Powers and Authorities

The rights, duties, powers and authorities of our Board of Directors are set out in the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws and the statutory provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The following is a selected summary of the Articles of Incorporation, By-laws and applicable provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) as they relate to selected rights, duties, powers and authorities of our Board of Directors.

The Articles of Incorporation provide for a minimum of three and a maximum of 12 directors. The Business Corporations Act (Ontario) prescribes that an offering corporation must have a minimum of three directors, at least twenty five percent (25%), or if they are less than 4, at least one of whom are Canadian residents and at least one third of whom are not officers or employees of us or our affiliates. The Board of Directors may, between annual shareholders meetings, appoint one or more additional directors to serve until the next annual shareholders meeting provided that the number of directors so added may not exceed by one-third (1/3) the number of directors required to have been elected at the last annual meeting of shareholders.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors or any one director may call a meeting upon the provision of forty-eight hours notice to each director in the manner prescribed in our By-laws. Any such notice shall include the items of business to be considered at the meeting. A majority of the directors constitute a quorum provided that half of those directors present are Canadian residents. Business cannot be transacted without a quorum. A quorum of directors may vote on any matter of business properly brought before the meeting provided that where a director is a party to a material contract or proposed material contract or has a material interest in the matter to be considered, such director must disclose his or her interest at the earliest possible date, request the conflict be noted in the minutes of the meeting, and with a few limited exceptions enumerated in the By-laws, refrain from voting on the matter in which the director has a material interest. There is no limitation on the Board of Directors to vote on matters of their remuneration provided such remuneration is disclosed in the financial statements and annual shareholder proxy materials.

The Board of Directors has broad borrowing powers and may, without authorization from the shareholders:

	•	borrow money on the credit of Micromem;
	•	issue, re-issue, sell or pledge debt obligations of Micromem;
	•	subject to restrictions respecting financial assistance prescribed in the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), give a guarantee on behalf of Micromem to secure the performance of an obligation of any person; and
	•	mortgage, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise create a security interest in all or any property of Micromem, owned or subsequently acquired, to secure any obligation of Micromem.

A person is qualified to be or stand for election as a director provided such person is at least 18 years of age, is not a bankrupt and is not found to be of unsound mind by a court in Canada or elsewhere. There is no requirement for a director to hold common shares.

Securities of Micromem

Holders of our common shares will be entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at all meetings of the shareholders of Micromem. Each common share carries one vote at such meetings. In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Micromem, after payment of all outstanding debts, the remaining assets of Micromem available for distribution will be distributed to the holders of our common shares. Dividends may be declared and paid on our common shares in such amounts and at such times as the directors shall determine in their discretion in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). There are no pre-emptive rights, conversion rights, redemption provisions or sinking fund provisions attaching to the common shares. Common shares are not liable to further calls or to assessment by Micromem; provided, however, that pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), Micromem has a lien on any common share registered in the name of a shareholder or the shareholder's legal representative for a debt owed by the shareholder to Micromem.

Holders of special shares are entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at all meetings of the shareholders of Micromem. Each special share carries one vote at such meetings. In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Micromem, after payment of all outstanding debts, the holders of the special shares shall be entitled to receive, before any distribution of any part of the assets of Micromem among the holders of any other shares, the amount paid up on the special shares. The special shares are redeemable at the option of Micromem for the amount paid up on the shares. Dividends may not be declared or paid on the special shares and transfer of the Special Shares is restricted without the approval of the Directors of Micromem and the prior written consent of the Ontario Securities Commission. The number of special shares that may be issued and outstanding at any time is limited to 500,000. There are no pre-emptive rights, conversion rights or sinking fund provisions attaching to the special shares.

Rights and Privileges of Shareholders

Only the registered holders of our common shares and special preference shares on the record date are entitled to receive notice of and vote at annual and special meetings of shareholders. Where the items of business affect the rights of shareholders other than the holders of common shares, a special majority of two-thirds of the votes cast by the affected shareholders at the meeting called for such purpose is required to approve the item of business. Beneficial holders of common shares and special shares are also entitled to receive proxy materials in respect of meetings of shareholders in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 54-101, provided that such proxies are limited in scope to instructing the registered shareholder (usually a brokerage house) on how to vote on behalf of the beneficial shareholder. There are no restrictions on the number of shares that may be held by non-residents other than restrictions set out in the Investment Canada Act (Canada). See "Additional Information - D. Exchange Controls".

There are no provisions in the By-laws regarding public disclosure of individual shareholdings. Notwithstanding this, applicable Canadian securities legislation requires certain public disclosure of persons owning or acquiring common shares in excess of 10% of a corporation's issued and outstanding share capital.

E.	Taxation

Certain Canadian Income Tax Consequences

This discussion under this heading summarizes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of common shares for a shareholder who is not a resident of Canada but is a resident of the United States and who will acquire and hold a common share as capital property for the purposes of the Income Tax Canada, also referred to as the Canadian Tax Act. This summary does not apply to a shareholder who carries on business in Canada through a permanent establishment situated in Canada or performs independent personal services in Canada through a fixed base in Canada if the shareholder is effectively connected with such permanent establishment or fixed base. This summary is based on the provisions of the Canadian Tax Act and the regulations there under and on an understanding of the administrative practices of Canada Customs & Revenue Agency, and takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act or regulations made by the Minister of Finance of Canada as of the date hereof. It has been assumed that there will be no other relevant amendments of any governing law although no assurance can be given in this respect. This discussion is general only and is not a substitute for independent advice from a shareholder's own Canadian and US tax advisors.

The provisions of the Canadian Tax Act are subject to income tax treaties to which Canada is a party, including the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980), as amended.

Dividends on common shares and Other Income

Under the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is generally subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25 percent on dividends paid or deemed to have been paid to him or her by a corporation resident in Canada. We are responsible for the withholding of tax at the source. The Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) limits the rate to 15 percent if the shareholder is a resident of the United States and the dividends are beneficially owned by and paid to such shareholder, and to 5 percent if the shareholder is also a corporation that beneficially owns at least 10 percent of the voting stock of the payor corporation.

The amount of a stock dividend (for tax purposes) would generally be equal to the amount of our paid up or stated capital and increased by reason of the payment of such dividend. We will furnish additional tax information to shareholders in the event of such a dividend. Interest paid or deemed to be paid on our debt securities held by non-Canadian residents may also be subject to Canadian withholding tax, depending upon the terms and provisions of such securities and any applicable tax treaty.

The Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) generally exempts from Canadian income tax dividends paid to a religious, scientific, literary, educational or charitable organization or to an organization constituted and operated exclusively to administer a pension, retirement or employee benefit fund or plan, if the organization is a resident of the United States and is exempt from income tax under the laws of the United States.

Dispositions of Common Shares

Under the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is subject to Canadian tax on taxable capital gains, and may deduct allowable capital losses, realized on a disposition of "taxable Canadian property". common shares will constitute taxable Canadian property of a shareholder at a particular time if the shareholder used the shares in carrying on business in Canada, or if at any time in the five years immediately preceding the disposition 25 percent or more of the issued shares of any class or series in the capital stock of Micromem belonged to one or more persons in a group comprising the shareholder and persons with whom the shareholder did not deal at "arm's length” and in certain other circumstances.

The Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980) relieves United States residents from liability for Canadian tax on capital gains derived on a disposition of shares unless:

the value of the shares is derived principally from "real property" in Canada, including the right to explore for or exploit natural resources and rights to amounts computed by reference to production, the shareholder was resident in Canada for 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years preceding, and at any time during the 10 years immediately preceding, the disposition and the shares were owned by them when they ceased to be resident in Canada, or the shares formed part of the business property of a "permanent establishment" that the holder has or had in Canada within the 12 months preceding the disposition.

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences, under current law, generally applicable to a US Holder (as defined below). This summary does not address all potentially relevant United States federal income tax matters and it does not address consequences peculiar to persons subject to special provisions of United States federal income tax law, such as those described below as excluded from the definition of a US Holder. United States alternative minimum tax considerations are not addressed in this summary. In addition, this summary does not cover any state, local or foreign tax consequences, nor any U.S. federal gift, estate or generation-skipping transfer tax consequences. (Certain, but not all, foreign tax consequences are described above under “Taxation - Certain Canadian Income Tax Consequences.”)

The following summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, published Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings, published administrative positions of the IRS, and court decisions that are currently applicable, any of which could be materially and adversely changed, possibly on a retroactive basis, at any time. This summary does not consider the potential effects, both adverse and beneficial, of any recently proposed legislation which, if enacted, could be applied (possibly on a retroactive basis) at any time (including, without limitation, changes in applicable tax rates).

This summary is for general information only and it is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of common shares, and no opinion or representation with respect to the United States federal income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made. Accordingly, holders and prospective holders of common shares should consult their own tax advisors about the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of common shares of the Company.

CIRCULAR 230 DISCLOSURE

ANY TAX STATEMENT MADE HEREIN REGARDING ANY U.S. FEDERAL TAX IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE USED, AND CANNOT BE USED, BY ANY TAXPAYER FOR PURPOSES OF AVOIDING ANY PENALTIES. ANY SUCH STATEMENT HEREIN IS WRITTEN IN CONNECTION WITH THE MARKETING OR PROMOTION OF THE TRANSACTION TO WHICH THE STATEMENT RELATES. EACH TAXPAYER SHOULD SEEK ADVICE BASED ON THE TAXPAYER’S PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES FROM AN INDEPENDENT TAX ADVISOR.

US Holders

As used herein, a “US Holder” means an owner of common shares who is a citizen or individual resident (as defined under United States tax laws) of the United States; a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof; an estate the income of which is taxable in the United States irrespective of source; or a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of the trust or (b) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996 and has properly elected to continue to be treated as a United States person. This summary does not address the tax consequences to, and “US Holder” does not include, tax-exempt persons or organizations; qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts; financial institutions; insurance companies; real estate investment trusts; regulated investment companies; entities subject to the U.S. corporate conversion rules; broker-dealers; U.S. tax expatriates; non-resident alien individuals or entities; persons or entities that have a “functional currency” other than the US dollar; persons who hold common shares as part of a straddle, hedging or conversion transaction; and persons who acquire their common shares as compensation for services. This summary is limited to US Holders who own common shares as capital assets and who hold the common shares directly (e.g., not through an intermediary entity such as a corporation, partnership, LLC or trust). This summary does not address the consequences to a person or entity of the ownership, exercise or disposition of any options, warrants or other rights to acquire common shares.

Distributions to US Holders Who Own Common Shares

Subject to the discussion below concerning the potential status of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries that are classified as corporations for United States federal income tax purposes (“Related Entities”)) as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”), the gross amount of any distribution by the Company (including any Canadian taxes withheld therefrom) with respect to common shares generally should be included in the gross income of a US Holder as foreign source dividend income to the extent such distribution is paid out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company, as determined under United States federal income tax principles. To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits in that taxable year, the distribution is treated as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the US Holder's adjusted tax basis in the common shares. Thereafter, to the extent that such distribution exceeds the US Holder's adjusted tax basis in the common shares, it is taxed as a capital gain.

Dividends received by non-corporate US Holders may be subject to United States federal income tax at lower rates (generally 15%) than other types of ordinary income in taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2013, if certain conditions are met. These conditions include neither the Company nor a Related Entity being classified as a PFIC (discussed below), the Company being a “qualified foreign corporation”, the US Holder's satisfaction of a holding period requirement, and the US Holder not treating the distribution as “investment income” for purposes of the investment interest deduction rules.

In the case of US Holders that are corporations, distributions from the Company generally are not eligible for the dividends received deduction.

Dispositions of Common Shares of the Company

Subject to the discussion below regarding PFICs, gain or loss, if any, realized by a US Holder on the sale or other disposition of common shares generally is subject to United States federal income taxation as capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the US Holder's adjusted tax basis in the common shares and the amount realized on the disposition. Net capital gain (i.e., capital gain in excess of capital loss) recognized by a non-corporate US Holder upon a sale or other disposition of common shares that have been held for more than one year is generally subject to a maximum United States federal income tax rate of 15% in taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2013. Deductions for capital losses are subject to limitations.

US Anti-Deferral Regimes

There are two regimes applicable to foreign corporations under United States federal income tax law that potentially may apply to the Company - the “controlled foreign corporation” (“CFC”) regime and the PFIC regime.

Generally, a foreign corporation is not a CFC unless more than fifty percent (by vote or value) of its stock is owned by “U.S. Shareholders” (generally, United States persons who have ten percent or more of the votes of the foreign corporation). This classification generally results in the inclusion of certain income of the CFC in the U.S. Shareholders' income as a deemed dividend. If the Company were a CFC, the United States federal tax consequences summarized herein could be materially and adversely different.

PFIC status is not conditioned on a certain level of ownership of the foreign corporation by United States persons, however. The Company or any Related Entity would be considered a PFIC if during any taxable year, 75% or more of its gross income consists of certain types of “passive” income, or if the average value during a taxable year of its “passive assets” (generally, assets that generate passive income) is 50% or more of the average value of all assets held by it. Passive income generally includes items such as dividends, interest, rents and royalties, although there are various “look through” rules that treat dividends from related persons, for example, as non-passive under certain conditions.

If the Company is classified as a PFIC, a US Holder is subject to increased United States federal income tax liability in respect of gain recognized on the disposition of his, her or its common shares or upon the receipt of certain distributions, unless such person makes a “qualified electing fund” election to be taxed currently on his, or her or its pro rata portion of the Company's income and gain (whether or not such income or gain is distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise), and the Company provides certain annual statements which include the information necessary to determine inclusions and assure compliance with the PFIC rules. As an alternative to the foregoing rules, a US Holder may make a “mark-to-market” election to include in income each year as ordinary income an amount equal to the increase in value of his, her or its common shares for that year or to claim a deduction for any decrease in value (but only to the extent of previous mark-to-market gains).

The CFC and PFIC rules are very complex. The Company offers no opinion or representations as to its status as a CFC or PFIC for the current or any prior or future tax years. US Holders should consult their own U.S. tax advisors with respect to the CFC and PFIC issues and their applicability to such Holder’s particular situation.

Foreign Tax Credit

A US Holder who pays (or has withheld from distributions) Canadian income tax with respect to the ownership or disposition of the common shares may be entitled, at the option of the US Holder, to either a deduction or a tax credit for such foreign tax paid or withheld. Generally, it will be more advantageous to claim a credit because a credit reduces United States Federal income taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis, while a deduction merely reduces the taxpayer’s income subject to tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid by (or withheld from) the US Holder during that year.

There are significant and complex limitations that apply to the credit, among which is the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of the US Holder’s United States Federal income tax liability that the US Holder's foreign source income bears to his or its worldwide taxable income. In the determination of the application of this limitation, the various items of income and deduction must be classified into foreign and domestic sources. Complex rules govern this classification process. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific “baskets” of income. Foreign taxes assigned to a particular basket generally cannot offset United States tax on income assigned to another basket. Unused foreign tax credits can generally be carried back one year and carried forward ten years. The availability of the foreign tax credit and the application of the limitations on the credit are fact specific and US Holders should consult their own U.S. tax advisors regarding their ability to utilize foreign tax credits in light of their individual circumstances.

Currency Fluctuations

For United States federal income tax purposes, the amount received by a US Holder as payment with respect to a distribution on, or disposition of common shares, if paid in Canadian dollars, is the US dollar value at the date of the payment, regardless of whether the payment is later converted into US dollars. In such case, the US Holder may recognize additional ordinary income or loss as a result of currency fluctuations between the date on which the payment is made and the date the payment is converted into US dollars.

Based on management's evaluation in 2016, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of October 31, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in that they were designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) also states that disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or person performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Micromem’s Board of Directors and executive management are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of its published consolidated financial statements.

All internal control systems no matter how well designed have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of Micromem’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2016. In making this assessment, they used the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of October 31, 2016, our internal control over financial reporting were effective.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm.

Micromem’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2016 has been audited by Collins Barrow Toronto LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm in Toronto, Canada, as stated in their report which is included under “Item 18—Financial Statements” of this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, occurred during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT OF REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of Micromem Technologies Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Micromem Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at October 31, 2016 and October 31, 2015 and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2016, October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014 and notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

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

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Micromem Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries as at October 31, 2016 and October 31, 2015, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2016, October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements which describes the material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about Micromem Technologies Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern.

This office is independently owned and operated by Collins Barrow Toronto LLP.

Other Matter

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2016, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 2, 2017 expressed an unmodified (unqualified) opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of Micromem Technologies Inc.:

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Micromem Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of October 31, 2016, based on criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included under the heading “Disclosure Controls/Internal Controls” under the title “Compliance Related Reporting Matters” in the accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2016, based on criteria established in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have also audited, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statements of financial position of the Company as at October 31, 2016 and 2015 and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2016, October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014, and notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and our report dated March 2, 2017 expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

1.	REPORTING ENTITY AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Micromem Technologies Inc. (“Micromem” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. The principal business address of the Company is 121 Richmond Street West, Suite 304, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

The Company develops, based upon proprietary technology, customized magnetic sensor applications for companies (referred to as “development partners”) operating internationally in various industry segments. The Company has not generated commercial revenues through October 31, 2016 and is devoting substantially all its efforts to securing commercial revenue opportunities.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries:

	(i)	Micromem Applied Sensors Technology, Inc. (“MAST”) incorporated in November 2007 and domiciled in Delaware, United States. MAST has the primary responsibility for the exploitation of the Company’s technologies in conjunction with various strategic partners and customers.

	(ii)	7070179 Canada Inc., incorporated in October 2008 under the Canada Business Corporations Act in Ontario, Canada. The Company has assigned to this entity its rights, title and interests in certain patents which it previously held, directly in exchange for common shares of this entity.

	(iii)	Memtech International Inc., Bahamas; Memtech International (USA) Inc., Delaware, United States; Pageant Technologies (USA) Inc., United States; Pageant Technologies Inc., Barbados; and Micromem Holdings (Barbados) Inc., Barbados. All of these entities are inactive.

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance and release by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 2, 2017.

2.	GOING CONCERN

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the “going concern” basis in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

There are material uncertainties related to conditions and events that cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time in future. During the year ended October 31, 2016, the Company reported a net loss and comprehensive loss of $6,805,535 (2015 - $6,516,610; 2014 - $4,164,871) and negative cash flow from operations of $2,303,036 (2015 - $1,640,400; 2014 - $2,883,079). The Company’s working capital deficiency as at October 31, 2016 is $4,316,730 (2015 – $2,049,302).

The Company’s success depends on the profitable commercialization of its proprietary magnetic sensor technology. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in the profitable commercialization of its technology. Based upon its current operating and financial plans, management of the Company believes that it will have sufficient access to financial resources to fund the Company’s planned operations through fiscal 2017; however, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to secure additional financing and/or profitably commercialize its technology. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

If the “going concern” assumption were not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used; in such cases, these adjustments would be material.

3.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

	a)	Statement of compliance:

		These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and its interpretations adopted by International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

	b)	Basis of measurement:

		The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments designated at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value.

	c)	Functional and presentation currency:

		These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”), which is also the Company’s and wholly-owned subsidiaries functional currency.

	d)	Use of estimates and judgments:

		The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

		Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

		Information about judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment are as follows:

The Company makes estimates and utilizes assumptions in determining the fair value for stock based compensation expense, warrants, the (gain) loss on the revaluation of the derivative liability, and the bifurcation of convertible debt (e.g. inputs to the Black-Scholes option pricing model and interest rates for compound instruments).

3.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Cont’d)

Use of estimates and judgments: (Cont’d)

	ii)	The Company makes estimates related to the recovery of deferred development costs based on the expectation and assumption of realizing revenues from future commercial agreements that it anticipates will develop with the companies for whom these projects have been undertaken. Changes in these expectations and assumptions could result in a change in the recoverable amount calculated.

	iii)	The Company applies judgment when establishing whether the capitalization criteria under IAS 38, Intangible Assets, for internally developed intangible assets, have been met.

	iv)	Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount or if the long-lived assets are not yet in use. The recoverable amount is determined with reference to the fair value of the long-lived assets less costs to sell or the value-in-use calculations. Where recoverable amount is determined to be less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss may arise. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the recoverable amount. Management exercises significant judgment and assumptions when determining the recoverable amount of long-lived assets

	v)	Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilized. At October 31, 2016, the Company has assessed that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to use deferred income tax assets based on operating losses in prior years, therefore, there are no balances carried in the consolidated statements of financial position for such assets.

	vi)	The Company applies judgment in assessing whether material uncertainties exist that would cause doubt as to the whether the Company could continue as a going concern.

	vii)	The Company applies judgment in assessing the functional currency of each entity consolidated in these financial statements.

	viii)	The Company applies judgement in determining whether a joint arrangement exists and is classified as a joint operation or joint venture.

4.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

	a)	Basis of consolidation:

		Subsidiaries are legal entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from an investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date control ceases.

		These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company’s subsidiaries.

	b)	Foreign currency translation:

		IFRS requires that the functional currency of each entity in the consolidated entity be determined separately in accordance with specific indicators and should be measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). As a result of an assessment of the primary indicators, management assessed the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries to be U.S. dollar (“USD”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared and presented using the USD.

		Foreign currency transactions denominated in other than U.S. dollars are translated into the functional currency on the following basis:

	i)	Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the statement of financial position date.

	ii)	Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

	iii)	Income and expenses for each income statement line item presented are translated at average exchange rates during the quarter in which they are recognized.

Exchange differences resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized directly in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which incurred.

4.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

	c)	Financial Instruments: Recognition, Measurement, Disclosure and Presentation:

		The Company initially recognizes loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

		The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire.

		Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position only when the Company has the legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

		The Company’s financial assets consist of cash and deposits and other receivables and the Company’s financial liabilities consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, bridge loans and derivative liability.

		The Company classifies cash as FVTPL. Deposits and other receivables are classified as loans and receivables, and are initially measured at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and the liability portion of bridge loans are classified as other financial liabilities, and initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The derivative liability is classified at FVTPL and is measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

		Interest, dividends, losses and gains relating to the financial liability are recognized in profit or loss except for borrowing costs on qualifying assets which are added to asset cost.

		To the extent there are changes to the terms of outstanding financial liability these changes may be recorded as a modification or an extinguishment of financial liabilities. A substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The terms are substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms is at least 10% different from the discounted present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability. A modification of the original financial liability is accounted for as an adjustment to the effective interest rate.

	d)	Compound Financial Instruments:

		Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible notes (bridge loans) that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.

		The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option.

		The equity component, if the conversion feature of the convertible note is in US dollars, is recognized initially as the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

		Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured subsequent to initial recognition.

	e)	Hybrid Financial Instruments:

		Financial instruments with embedded derivative liabilities are accounted for as hybrid financial instruments. The Company has hybrid financial instruments when the embedded derivative conversion option of the convertible notes (bridge loans) gives the right to the holder to convert the convertible note (bridge loan) into common shares in Canadian dollars (“CDN”).

	e)	Hybrid Financial Instruments: (Cont’d)

		An embedded derivative is a feature within a contract, such that the cash flows associated with that feature behave in a similar fashion as a stand- alone derivative. An embedded derivative is separated from its host contract and accounted for as a derivative only when three criteria are satisfied:

	•	When the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to those of the host contract;
	•	A separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and
	•	The entire instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

Derivative Liability:

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivative liabilities in relation to its convertible bridge loans and previously issued share purchase warrants.

	i)	Derivative Warrant Liability:

		The Company has issued share purchase warrants in conjunction with private placements for the purchase of common shares of the Company. Share purchase warrants issued with an exercise price in CDN, rather than USD (the reporting and functional currency of the Company) are considered to be derivative instruments. The Company is required to re-measure the fair value of these at each reporting date. The fair value of these CDN share purchase warrants are re-measured at each financial position date using the Black Scholes option-pricing model using the exchange rates at the financial position date and measured over their remaining life. Adjustments to the fair value of the derivative warrant liability as at the financial position date are recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability. Share purchase warrants that have expired or have been forfeited are adjusted to the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability.

		Consideration received upon the exercise of warrants is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus (USD warrants) or derivative liability (CDN warrants) to share capital.

Derivative Liability: (Cont’d)

	ii)	Conversion Feature of Bridge Loans:

		The conversion feature on the bridge loans allows the holder of the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest from time to time to common shares at CDN conversion rates. The Company, using the Black Scholes option-pricing model, accounts for bridge loans as follows:

	(ii.1)	At date of origination, the bifurcation of the total balance of the loan between the loan and the conversion feature is calculated. If the conversion feature of the bridge loan is in CDN there is no equity component, instead resulting in an embedded derivative liability. Accretion expense is recorded over the term of the loan. If the conversion feature of the loan is in USD, the instrument is accounted for as a compound financial instrument (see Note 4 (d)).

		Canadian Conversion Features:

	(ii.2)	The total loan proceeds are allocated between the bridge loans and the related embedded derivative liability based on the residual method (i.e. first to the embedded derivative and residual to the bridge loan). The embedded derivative liability conversion feature is shown as a derivative liability in the statement of financial position.

	(ii.3)	The embedded derivative liability conversion feature is revalued at the end of the reporting period and any adjustment is reflected in the statement of loss.

	g)	Joint Arrangements:

		Joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. The determination of whether an arrangement is a joint operation or joint venture is based on the rights and obligations arising from the contractual obligations between the parties to the arrangement. Joint arrangements that provide a company with the rights to the individual assets and obligations arising from the arrangement are classified as joint operations and joint arrangements that provide an entity with rights to the net assets of the arrangement are classified as joint ventures. A joint arrangement that is not structured through a separate vehicle is a joint operation.

	g)	Joint Arrangements: (Cont’d)

		The interests in joint arrangements that are classified as joint operations are accounted for by the Company recording its pro rata share of the assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and cash flows.

		The interests in joint arrangements that are classified as joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and presented as an investment in the consolidated statement of financial position.

	h)	Intangible Assets:

		Costs for the general development of the Company’s sensor technology are expensed unless they meet the criteria for deferral. Expenditures are capitalized if the Company can demonstrate each of the following criteria: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, (ii) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it, (iii) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset, (iv) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits, (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset, and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development; otherwise, they are expensed as incurred. Amortization is provided on a 7 year straight-line basis. Commencing in 2014, amortization expense of intangible assets is capitalized as deferred development costs as these charges are directly related to development.

	i)	Property and Equipment:

		Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates and methods:

Computers	30% declining balance basis
Office equipment	30% declining balance basis

	j)	Impairment of Long-lived Assets:

		Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment, patents, intangible assets, and deferred development costs.

		The carrying amounts of property and equipment, patents and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When the carrying amount exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

		Internally generated intangible assets that are under development (deferred development costs) are not amortized and are reviewed for impairment annually by comparing the carrying amount with its recoverable amount. Any impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss when their recoverable amount is less than their net carrying amount.

		The recoverable amount of long-lived assets is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

		An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Following the recognition or reversal of an impairment loss, the amortization charge applicable to the asset is adjusted prospectively in order to systematically allocate the revised carrying amount, net of any residual value, over the estimated useful life.

Gains or losses on the disposal of property and equipment, patents and intangible assets represent the difference between the net proceeds and the carrying value at the date of sale.

4.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

	k)	Deferred Development Costs:

		Research costs are expensed in the period incurred. Development costs are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria for deferral. Expenditures during the development phase are capitalized if the Company can demonstrate each of the following criteria: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the asset so that it will be available for use or sale, (ii) its intention to complete the asset and use or sell it, (iii) its ability to use or sell the asset, (iv) how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits, (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset, and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development; otherwise, these costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs will be amortized on an appropriate basis at the time each of the developed assets is available for use.

		Payments received from development partners on projects are recorded to deferred development costs as a recovery of cost incurred.

	l)	Patents:

		Patents are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. Patents are recorded net of accumulated amortization with amortization expense capitalized as deferred development costs since the patents are directly related to development. Amortization is expensed if there are no capitalized deferred development costs on the consolidated statement of financial position.

	m)	Unit Private Placements:

		The Company uses the relative fair value approach in accounting for the value assigned to the common shares and the common share purchase warrants which it had made available in the unit private placement financings that it secured, calculated in accordance with the Black Scholes option-pricing model.

	n)	Stock based Compensation and Other Stock based Payments:

		The Company applies the fair value based method of accounting for all stock based payments to employees and non-employees and all direct awards of stock. Where share based payments are issued to non-employees, they are recorded at the fair value of the goods or services received in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. If the fair value cannot be estimated reliably the amount is based on the fair value of the equity instrument granted. Stock based compensation is charged to operations over the vesting period and the offset is credited to contributed surplus.

		Consideration received upon the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus.

		The fair value of stock options and warrants is determined by the Black Scholes option- pricing model with assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividend yields, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company’s common shares and an expected life of the option or warrant issued. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest. In the event that vested stock options expire, previously recognized stock based compensation is not reversed. In the event that stock options are forfeited, previously recognized stock based compensation associated with the unvested portion of the stock options forfeited is reversed. The fair value of direct awards of stock is determined by the quoted market price of the Company’s common shares.

	o)	Income Taxes:

		Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

		Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

4.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

	o)	Income Taxes: (Cont’d)

		Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

		Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

		Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

		A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

	p)	Earnings or Loss Per Share:

		Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which are comprised of outstanding warrants, conversion options and vested stock options. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share assume that any proceeds received for in-the-money warrants and options would be used to buy common shares at the average market price for the period.

5.	NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or the IFRS Interpretations Committee that are mandatory for future accounting periods. The standards impacted that are applicable to the Company are as follows:

	a)	IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will replace IAS 11 – Construction Contracts, IAS 18 – Revenue, IFRIC 13 – Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 – Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 – Transfer of Assets from Customers, and SIC 31 Revenue – Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. The new standard will be mandatorily effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, and interim periods within that year. Earlier application is permitted.

		The core principle of the new standard is for companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively and improve guidance for multiple deliverable arrangements.

	b)	IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments, was issued by the IASB in July 2014 and will replace IAS 39, Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement (“IAS 39”). IFRS 9 utilizes a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value and a new mixed measurement model for debt instruments having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Final amendments released in July 2014 also introduce a new expected loss impairment model and limited changes to the classification and measurement requirements for financial assets. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

5.	NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED (Cont’d)

	c)	IAS 7 – Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows) – these amendments require that the following changes in liabilities arising from financing activities are disclosed (to the extent necessary): (i) changes from financing cash flows; (ii) changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses; (iii) the effect of changes in foreign exchanges rates; (iv) changes in fair values; and (v) other changes. One way to fulfil the new disclosure requirement is to provide a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the statement of financial position for liabilities arising from financing activities. Finally, the amendments state that changes in liabilities arising from financing activities must be disclosed separately from changes in other assets and liabilities. These amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017.

	d)	IFRS 16 – Leases – This standard was issued in January 2016 and specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16’s approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17. This standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019.

The Company is currently assessing the impact of the above standards.

6.	FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The following summarizes the methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments where measurement is required. The fair value of financial instruments consisting of cash, deposits and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and bridge loans approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short period to maturity. Fair value amounts represent point-in-time estimates and may not reflect fair value in the future. For derivative liabilities fair value is determined using intrinsic value and/or the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The measurements are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and are a matter of significant judgment. The methods and assumptions used to develop fair value measurements, for those financial instruments where fair value is recognized in the statement of financial position, have been prioritized into three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1: Values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

6.	FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES (Cont’d)

Level 2: Values based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Values based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Cash is measured at Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The derivative liability is measured Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

7.	CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s objective when managing capital is to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Company includes equity, comprised of issued share capital, equity component of bridge loans, contributed surplus and deficit, in the definition of capital. The Company’s primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has sufficient cash resources to further develop and market its technologies and to maintain its ongoing operations. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue these plans, the Company may attempt to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity and warrants or by securing strategic partners. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and there has been no change with respect to the overall capital risk management strategy during the year ended October 31, 2016.

DEFERRED DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The breakdown of development costs that have been capitalized is as follows:

		2016			2015

Opening balance	$	3,070,299		$	3,525,456
Additional project costs incurred		1,211,720			3,723,900
Recovery of development costs		(643,901	)		(1,783,632	)
Write-off of project costs		(3,638,118	)		(2,395,425	)
Closing balance		-		$	3,070,299

Additions to deferred development costs include patent amortization of $71,989 (2015 - $58,105; 2014 - $44,472), and also includes intangible asset amortization of $14,514 (2015 -$19,352; 2014 - $19,352).

To date, the Company has recovered from its development partners a portion of the costs it has incurred as development costs coincident with meeting milestones as stipulated in development contracts.

The Company wrote-off the capitalized cost of $2,395,425 in the fourth quarter of the year ended October 31, 2015 against cumulative development costs incurred on development projects to reduce the carrying value of those projects to nominal value. The reserves were recorded as there were no formal commitments as of October 31, 2015 from development partners to move forward with these projects.

The Company wrote-off the capitalized cost of $3,638,118 in the third quarter of the year ended October 31, 2016 to reduce the carrying value of those projects to a value of nil. The Company anticipates that it may realize commercial economic benefits from the exploitation of these development projects in the future. However, given the uncertainty of realization of these costs, the Company wrote-off the capitalized costs.

Stock option plan:

The Company has a fixed stock option plan. Under the Company’s stock option plan (the “Plan”), the Company may grant options for up to 18,840,000 shares of common stock to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. The exercise price of each option is equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s shares on the date of grant unless otherwise permitted by applicable securities regulations. An option’s maximum term under the Plan is 10 years. Stock options are fully vested upon issuance by the Company unless the Board of Directors stipulates otherwise by Directors’ resolution.

In April 2015 the Company filed an S-8 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to its outstanding stock options, which registered up to 18,840,000 common shares issuable upon the exercise of options granted under the Company’s 2014 Directors, Officers and Employees Stock Option Plan, and the resale of up to 10,340,000 of such shares under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. This filing permits the holders of the securities registered for resale under the S-8 to resell such securities without any required U.S. Federal holding period.

SHARE CAPITAL, STOCK OPTIONS AND LOSS PER SHARE (Cont’d)

Loss Per Share

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the year ended October 31, 2016 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $6,805,535 (2015 - $6,516,610; 2014 - $4,164,871) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 199,572,966 (2015 – 192,629,666; 2014 - 171,534,969).

Diluted loss per share does not include the effect of 4,395,000 stock options outstanding as they are anti-dilutive.

PRIVATE PLACEMENTS AND COMMON SHARE PURCHASE WARRANTS

Private Placements

	i)	The Company did not complete any private placements in 2014.

	ii)	In 2014 the Company extended the expiry date on a total of 1,405,026 common share purchase warrants which would have otherwise expired in the period. These warrants were extended for a period of three to six months in each case. The strike price of 1,105,026 of these warrants was changed from $0.41 and $0.45 per warrant to $0.50 per warrant. The strike price remained unchanged for the balance of the warrants at $0.55 per warrant.

		The Company calculated the charge associated with the extension of warrants in accordance with the Black Scholes option-pricing model. The Company reported a total charge to deficit of $168,632 and an offsetting charge to contributed surplus of $168,632 for warrants extended.

		The incremental fair value of these warrants extended was estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

	(a)	Financial Risk Management:

		The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks by virtue of its activities: market risk (including foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk) and liquidity risk. The overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management is carried out under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Management is charged with the responsibility of establishing controls and procedures to ensure that financial risks are mitigated in accordance with the approved policies.

(b)

Market Risk:

	i.	Foreign Exchange Risk:

		The Company currently incurs expenses in Canadian dollars. Management monitors the Canadian position of these monetary financial instruments on a periodic basis throughout the course of the year.

Market Risk: (Cont’d)

Foreign Exchange Risk: (Cont’d)

The consolidated financial statements include balances that are denominated in Canadian dollars as follows:

	$	CDN	$	CDN
		2016		2015

Cash	$	377,534	$	148,767
Deposits and other receivables		44,695		73,361
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		289,099		335,813
Bridge loans		3,405,824		1,002,313

A 10% strengthening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar would serve to decrease the loss by $438,726 at October 31, 2016 (2015 – decrease the loss by $132,625). A 10% weakening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar at October 31, 2016 would have had the equal but opposite effect.

ii.

Interest Rate Risk:

Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s cash and promissory note receivable earn interest at market rates. The Company manages its interest rate risk by maximizing the interest income earned on excess funds while maintaining the liquidity necessary to conduct operations on a day-to-day basis. Fluctuations in market rates of interest may have an impact on the Company’s results of operations.

The Company is exposed to interest price risk on its interest bearing bridge loans and related party advances. This exposure is limited due to the short-term nature of the bridge loans and related party advances.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Cont’d)

	(c)	Liquidity Risk:

		Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they fall due.

		The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. Senior management is actively involved in the review and approval of planned expenditures.

		All financial liabilities are due within 1 year from the balance sheet at October 31, 2016.

		As at October 31, 2016, the Company reports a working capital deficiency of $4,316,730 and has certain financial commitments (Note 19), the majority of which are due within one year. It must continue to raise financing in order to meet its current obligations (Note 23).

	(d)	Credit Risk:

		Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s cash and deposits and other receivables. The carrying amount of financial assets represents maximum credit exposure. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its primary bank accounts at large financial institutions and assesses the credit quality of counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
