Table of Contents
A copy of this preliminary short form base prospectus has been filed with the securities regulatory authority in the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Ontario, but has not yet become final for the purpose of the sale of securities. Information contained in this preliminary short form base shelf prospectus may not be complete and may have to be amended. The securities may not be sold until a receipt for the short form base shelf prospectus is obtained from the securities regulatory authorities.
This short form prospectus is a base shelf prospectus. This short form prospectus has been filed under legislation in the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Ontario that permits certain information about these securities to be determined after this prospectus has become final and that permits the omission from this prospectus of that information. The legislation requires the delivery to purchasers of a prospectus supplement containing the omitted information within a specified period of time after agreeing to purchase any of these securities.
No securities regulatory authority has expressed an opinion about these securities and it is an offence to claim otherwise. This short form base shelf prospectus constitutes a public offering of these securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such securities.
Information has been incorporated by reference in this short form base shelf prospectus from documents filed with securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada.

This short form base shelf prospectus (the “Prospectus”) relates to the offering for sale by Skylight Health Group Inc. (the “Company” or “Skylight”) from time to time, during the 25-month period commencing April 22, 2021 that this Prospectus, including any amendments hereto, remains valid, of up to C$100,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies based on the applicable exchange rate at the time of the offering) in the aggregate of: (i) common shares (“Common Shares”) in the capital of the Company; (ii) warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase other Securities (as defined below); (iii) subscription receipts (“Subscription Receipts”) convertible into other Securities; and (iv) units (“Units”) comprised of one or more of any of the other Securities, or any combination of such Securities (the Common Shares, Warrants, Subscription Receipts and Units are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”). The Securities may be offered in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined based on market conditions at the time of sale and set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”). In addition, the Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Company or one of its subsidiaries. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of the Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash, debt and assumption of liabilities.
Table of Contents
All shelf information permitted under applicable laws to be omitted from this Prospectus will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this Prospectus except in cases where an exemption from such delivery has been obtained. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains.
The specific terms of any Securities offered will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement including, where applicable: (i) in the case of Common Shares, the number of Common Shares offered, the offering price, whether the Common Shares are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Common Shares offered; (ii) in the case of Warrants, the number of Warrants being offered, the offering price, the designation, number and terms of the other Securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants, and any procedures that will result in the adjustment of those numbers, the exercise price, the dates and periods of exercise, whether the Warrants are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Warrants offered; (iii) in the case of Subscription Receipts, the number of Subscription Receipts being offered, the offering price, the terms, conditions and procedures for the conversion of the Subscription Receipts into other Securities, the designation, number and terms of such other Securities, whether the Subscription Receipts are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Subscription Receipts offered; and (iv) in the case of Units, the number of Units being offered, the offering price, the number and terms of the Securities comprising the Units, whether the Units are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Units offered. A Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities may include terms pertaining to the Securities being offered thereunder that are not within the terms and parameters described in this Prospectus. Where required by statute, regulation or policy, and where the Securities are offered in currencies other than Canadian dollars, appropriate disclosure of foreign exchange rates applicable to the Securities will be included in the Prospectus Supplement describing the Securities. For the purpose of calculating the Canadian dollar equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Securities issued under this Prospectus from time to time, Securities denominated in or issued in, as applicable, a currency (the “Securities Currency”) other than Canadian dollars will be translated into Canadian dollars using the Bank of Canada daily exchange rate of Canadian dollars with the Securities Currency in effect as of 4:30 p.m. (Toronto time) on the business day before the issue of such Securities.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (“SEC” OR “COMMISSION”) NOR HAS THE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
This offering is made by a foreign issuer that is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare this prospectus in accordance with the disclosure requirements of its home country. Prospective investors should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. Financial statements included or incorporated by reference herein, if any, have been prepared in accordance with foreign generally accepted accounting principles, and may be subject to foreign auditing and auditor independence standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.
The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated or organized under the laws of a foreign country, that some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of a foreign country, that some or all of the underwriters or experts named in the registration statement may be residents of a foreign country, and that all or a substantial portion of the assets of the Registrant and said persons may be located outside the United States.
Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition of the securities described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in the home country of the registrant. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein.
Table of Contents
No underwriter or agent has been involved in the preparation of this Prospectus or performed any review of the contents of this Prospectus.
This Prospectus constitutes a public offering of the Securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such Securities. The Company may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals, and may also sell directly to one or more purchasers or through agents or pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions. See “Plan of Distribution”. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, engaged by the Company in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, the method of distribution of the Securities, the initial issue price (in the event that the offering is a fixed price distribution), the proceeds that the Company will, or expects to receive and any other material terms of the plan of distribution.
The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at non-fixed prices. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices determined by reference to the prevailing price of a specified security in a specified market or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers, in which case the compensation payable to an underwriter, dealer or agent in connection with any such sale will be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriter, dealer or agent to the Company. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.
In connection with any offering of Securities, other than an “at-the-market distribution” (as defined under applicable Canadian securities legislation), unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. A purchaser who acquires Securities forming part of the underwriters’, dealers’ or agents’ over-allocation position acquires those Securities under this Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement relating to the particular offering of Securities, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the over-allotment option or secondary market purchases. See “Plan of Distribution”. No underwriter or dealer involved in an “at-the-market distribution” under this Prospectus, no affiliate of such an underwriter or dealer and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such underwriter or dealer will over-allot Securities in connection with such distribution or effect any other transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities.
The issued and outstanding Common Shares are listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) under the symbol “SHG” and quoted on the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQX under the symbol “SHGFF”. On April 21, 2021, the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX-V was $1.14 and on the OTCQX was US$0.9085.
Skylight has applied to list the Common Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “SLHG”. Listing will be subject to Skylight fulfilling all the listing requirements of NASDAQ, and there can be no assurance that the Common Shares will be accepted for listing on NASDAQ.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, each series or issue of Securities (other than Common Shares) will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, there is currently no market through which the Securities (other than Common Shares) may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities and the extent of issuer regulation. See “Risk Factors”.
Table of Contents
Investing in the Securities is speculative and involves significant risks. Readers should carefully review and evaluate the risk factors contained in this Prospectus, the applicable Prospectus Supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference herein before purchasing any Securities. See “Forward-Looking Information” and “Risk Factors”.
Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement relating to any Securities offered, certain legal matters in connection with the offering of Securities may be passed upon on behalf of Skylight by Gardiner Roberts LLP as to legal matters relating to Canadian law and, if governed by United States law, by Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP as to matters relating to United States law.
Market data and certain industry forecasts used in this Prospectus or any applicable Prospectus Supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein were obtained from market research, publicly available information and industry publications. The Company believes that these sources are generally reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of the information is not guaranteed.

Certain information contained in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein may constitute forward-looking statements, as such term is defined under Canadian, U.S. and any other applicable securities laws. These statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect management’s expectations and assumptions regarding the growth, results of operations, performances and business prospects and opportunities of the Company. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. The use of any of the words “anticipate”, “plan”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “intend”, “will”, “project”, “could”, “believe”, “predict”, “potential”, “should” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, information regarding the Company’s future operating results and economic performance is forward-looking information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance, achievements or events to differ materially from those anticipated, discussed or implied in such forward-looking statements. The Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward- looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein should be considered carefully and investors should not place undue reliance on them as the Company cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this Prospectus or the particular document incorporated by reference herein. Such statements are based on a number of assumptions which may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to, assumptions about:
• | general business and economic conditions; |
• | the intentions, plans and future actions of the Company; |
• | the business and future activities of the Company after the date of this Prospectus; |

• | the timing and amount of estimated research & development expenditure in respect of the business of the Company; |
• | operating revenue, operating expenditures; success of marketing activities; estimated budgets; |

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties relating to, among other things, access to skilled personnel, results of operating activities, uninsured risks, and regulatory changes. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the risk factors contained in this Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference herein. Investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as the plans, intentions or expectations upon which they are based might not occur. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive. The forward looking statements contained in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as expressly required by applicable securities law. See “Forward- Looking Statements” in the AIF (as defined herein). The forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus, any Prospectus Supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Table of Contents
This Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain references to certain measures that are not defined under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS.
The Company uses non-IFRS measures, including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors with supplemental measures of its operating performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company believes that investors, securities analysts and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, and assess the Company’s ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements.
Please refer to the Company’s Annual MD&A (as defined below), incorporated by reference into this Prospectus, for the definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA presented by the Company and the reconciliation, where applicable, to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.
The Company has filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form F-10 of which this Prospectus forms a part. This Prospectus does not contain all the information set out in the registration statement. For further information about the Company and the Securities, please refer to the registration statement, including the exhibits to the registration statement.
The Company is currently subject to the information requirements under Canadian securities laws and, upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, the Company will become subject to certain information requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “U.S. Exchange Act”). Consequently, Skylight files reports and other information with the securities regulatory authorities of the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Ontario (the “Applicable Jurisdictions”) and will file reports and other information with the SEC. Under the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System (“MJDS”), the Company may generally prepare these reports and other information in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. These requirements are different from those of the United States. As a “foreign private issuer” (“FPI”) (as defined under United States securities laws), the Company is exempt from the rules under the U.S. Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and officers, directors and principal shareholders of Skylight are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act. In addition, the Company may not be required to publish financial statements as promptly as United States companies.
The reports and other information to be filed by the Company with the SEC may be read and copied at the SEC’s public reference room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. You may also obtain copies of the documents at prescribed rates by writing to the Public Reference Section of the SEC at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the public reference facilities. The SEC also maintains a website (www.sec.gov) that makes available reports and other information that the Company files electronically with it, including the registration statement that Skylight has filed with respect hereto.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
The Company exists under the laws of Canada, and all of its executive offices and administrative activities are located outside the United States. In addition, all of the directors and officers of the Company, other than Patrick McNamee, Grace Mellis, Paul Kulas and Georges Feghali, are residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and all or a substantial portion of the assets of those persons are or may be located outside the United States.
As a result, investors who reside in the United States may have difficulty serving legal process in the United States upon the Company or its directors or officers, as applicable, or enforcing judgments obtained in United States courts against any of them or the assets of any of them located outside the United States, or enforcing against them in the appropriate Canadian court judgments obtained in United States courts, including, but not limited to, judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States, or bringing an original action in the appropriate Canadian courts to enforce liabilities against the Company or any of its directors or officers, as applicable, based upon United States federal securities laws.
In the United States, the Company will be filing with the SEC, concurrently with Skylight’s registration statement on Form F-10, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under such Form F-X, the Company has appointed its subsidiary MVC Technologies USA Inc., 82 Hartwell St Floor 2, Fall River, MA, 02721 United States, as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against the Company in a U.S. court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of the Securities under the registration statement.

Our Business
Skylight is a healthcare services and technology company, working to positively impact patient health outcomes. The Company operates a US multi-state primary care health network comprised of physical practices providing a range of services from primary care, sub-specialty, allied health, and laboratory/diagnostic testing. The Company is focused on helping small and independent practices shift from a traditional fee-for-service (FFS) model to value-based care (VBC) through tools including proprietary technology, data analytics and infrastructure. VBC will lead to improved patient outcomes, reduced cost of delivery and drive stronger financial performance from existing practices.
The Company was founded in 2014, by founders with over 50 years of collective experience in clinical practice management in Canada and the US, as owners, operators, and consultants to outpatient medical centers across a variety of specialties from primary care, urgent-care, sub-specialty, and allied health & wellness. Skylight is founded on a model designed to drive towards helping small and independent practices adopt value-based capabilities and take on varying levels of risk. According to a report on The State of Primary Care in the US from the Robert Graham Center, the US healthcare outpatient market is highly fragmented with over 56% of clinics and clinicians working independently and in small care groups. These practices struggle the most with developing and deploying VBC due to the increased investment in technology, infrastructure, and capacity. As the industry continues to be consolidated by large health networks, there is a need and demand by patients to maintain the same level of patient care and treatment outcomes lost within the consolidation by legacy health networks. Skylight positions itself as the disruptor to legacy health networks. Providing an opportunity to consolidate with Skylight while maintaining patient treatment quality, accessibility and affordability and preserving the way healthcare should be delivered. Skylight also positions itself to partner with health plans as they aim to provide more comprehensive care services to patients across varying risk groups and capitation models to lower the cost of downstream costs.
Skylight practices offer both in clinic and virtual care services through telemedicine and remote patient monitoring. As part of developing the infrastructure for improved access within its practices, the Company expects to expand offerings to patients including a nursing and advisory hotline, same day access, annual wellness reminders and screening protocols, improved access to home-care and remote care services.
The Company’s vision and business model is to drive towards an outcome-based reimbursement model, more commonly referred to as the Value-Based model. The Company works through an acquisition strategy that focuses on current fee-for-service (FFS) practices that will convert to value-based care (VBC) or capitation-based payment models. In a FFS model, payors (commercial and government insurers) reimburse on an encounter-based approach. This puts a focus on volume of patients per day. In a VBC model, payors reimburse typically on a capitation (fixed fee per member per month) basis. This places an emphasis on quality over volume. The Company’s revenues will largely be driven by insurable services paid for by payors currently in a FFS model but in the future in a blended or VBC model.
Business Model
The Company’s business model is primarily driven through its clinical operations that offer medical services to patients in the US through virtual and physical care in 16 US states. During 2019, the Company was also able to begin validating its technology and contract research services, which generated incremental revenue by the end of 2019, and continued to grow throughout the 2020 calendar year. The Company differentiates itself by being an integrative medical practice in the United States that owns its own proprietary technology data analytical assets,

and clinical research expertise to support new market expansion, market access, data collection and analysis and drug discovery. At present, the Company operates and offers services in three vertical markets: medical services, technology & data analytics, and contract research and development services. Each vertical market is autonomous but works in tandem with the others. The Company integrates patient access, proprietary technology and consulting services to bring a comprehensive solution.
Recent Developments
On March 11, 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, which is causing significant financial market and social dislocation. In the United States, in particular, the federal government of the United States responded to the pandemic with various declarations of emergency, which resulted in travel and entry restrictions. It also imposed guidelines and recommendations regarding the closure of schools and public meeting places, lockdowns, and other restrictions intended to slow the progression of the virus, which state, territorial, tribal, and local governments have followed. The impact that the COVID-19 outbreak will have on the Company’s planned business activities in the United States is hard to predict, but management remains confident any negative impact may be minimal. To date, the COVID-19 crisis has not materially impacted the Company’s operations, financial condition, cash flows and financial performance. However, the Company has experienced longer delays in opening its physical clinics which it anticipates beginning to reopen strategically in 2021. The Company’s employees and consultants have been able to continue their work uninterrupted and the Company continues to have full access to its business operations in Canada and the United States.
In response to the outbreak, the Company has instituted operational and monitoring protocols to ensure the health and safety of its employees, which follow the advice of local governments and health authorities where it operates. The Company has adopted a work from home policy where possible. The Company continues to operate effectively whilst working remotely. The Company will continue to monitor developments of the pandemic and continuously assess the pandemic’s potential further impact on the Company’s operations and business. The situation is dynamic, and the ultimate duration and magnitude of the impact of the pandemic on the economy and the financial effect on the Company’s operations and business are not known at this time. See “Risk Factors—Public Health Crises such as the COVID-19 Pandemic and other Uninsurable Risk”.

Before deciding to invest in any Securities, prospective investors of the Securities should consider carefully the risk factors and the other information contained and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to a specific offering of Securities before purchasing the Securities, including those risks identified and discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the AIF, which is incorporated by reference herein. See “Documents Incorporated by Reference”.
An investment in the Securities offered hereunder is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. The risks and uncertainties described or incorporated by reference herein are not the only ones the Company may face. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those that the Company is unaware of or that are currently deemed immaterial, may also become important factors that affect the Company and its business. If any such risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks below and in the AIF and the other information elsewhere in this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement and consult with their professional advisers to assess any investment in the Company.
Return on Securities is not Guaranteed
There is no guarantee that the Securities will earn any positive return in the short term or long term. A holding of Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by holders whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. A holding of Securities is appropriate only for holders who have the capacity to absorb a loss of some or all of their holdings.
Discretion in the Use of Proceeds
Management of the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Securities under this Prospectus or a future Prospectus Supplement and may spend such proceeds in ways that do not improve the Company’s results of operations or enhance the value of the Common Shares or its other securities issued and outstanding from time to time. Any failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or cause the price of the securities of the Company issued and outstanding from time to time to decline.
Dilution
The Company may sell additional Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares in subsequent offerings or may issue additional Common Shares or other Securities to finance future acquisitions. The Company cannot predict the size or nature of future sales or issuances of securities or the effect, if any, that such future sales and issuances will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Sales or issuances of substantial numbers of Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares, or the perception that such sales or issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Common Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and economic interest in the Company. Furthermore, to the extent holders of the Company’s stock options or other convertible securities convert or exercise their securities and sell the Common Shares they receive, the trading price of the Common Shares may decrease due to the additional amount of Common Shares available in the market.

Volatile Market Price of the Common Shares
The market price of the Common Shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. This volatility may affect the ability of holders of Common Shares to sell their securities at an advantageous price. Market price fluctuations in the Common Shares may be due to the Company’s operating results failing to meet expectations of securities analysts or investors in any period, downward revision in securities analysts’ estimates, adverse changes in general market conditions or economic trends, acquisitions, dispositions or other material public announcements by the Company or its competitors, along with a variety of additional factors. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares.
Financial markets historically at times experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of companies and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Accordingly, the market price of the Common Shares may decline even if the Company’s operating results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company’s operations could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the Common Shares may be materially adversely affected.
Trading Markets and Liquidity
There is currently no market through which the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, none of the Warrants, Subscription Receipts or Units will be listed on any securities or stock exchange or any automated dealer quotation system. As a consequence, purchasers may not be able to resell Warrants, Subscription Receipts or Units purchased under this Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of the Securities, other than the Common Shares, in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of these securities and the extent of issuer regulation. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Securities, other than the Common Shares, will develop or, if developed, that any such market, including for the Common Shares, will be sustained.
The Common Shares are currently listed in Canada on the TSX-V under the symbol “SHG” and quoted on the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQX under the symbol “SHGFF”. There has been a limited public market in the United States for the Common Shares. While Skylight has applied to list its Common Shares on NASDAQ, listing will be subject to Skylight fulfilling all the listing requirements of NASDAQ. Moreover, as liquidity and trading patterns of securities listed on the TSX-V may be substantially different from those of securities listed on a securities exchange in the United States, historical trading prices may not be indicative of the prices at which the Common Shares may trade in the future if and when they are listed on NASDAQ. There is no assurance that the Common Shares will be listed on NASDAQ or any other national securities exchange in the United States or, if such a listing is obtained, that an active trading market for the Common Shares will develop or be sustained in the United States following the listing. If an active market for the Common Shares does not develop, it may be difficult for United States shareholders to sell their Common Shares without depressing the market price for such shares, or at all.
Shareholders of the Company may be unable to sell significant quantities of Common Shares into the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of their Common Shares, or at all. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity of the Common Shares on the trading market, or that the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX-V or achieve or maintain listing on NASDAQ or any other national securities exchange.

FPI Status, Emerging Growth Company Status and MJDS Eligibility
The Company is currently an FPI and is currently eligible to utilize the MJDS. As a result, although upon effectiveness of the registration statement, Skylight will become subject to the informational requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act, as an FPI, Skylight will be exempt from certain informational requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act to which domestic issuers in the United States are subject, including the proxy rules under the U.S. Exchange Act. As an FPI eligible to utilize MJDS Company will also not be required to file the same reports that a U.S. domestic issuer or non-MJDS eligible FPI would file with the SEC, although the Company is required to file with or furnish to the SEC the continuous disclosure documents that the Company is required to file in Canada under Canadian securities laws. Furthermore, the insider reporting and short-profit provisions under Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act will not be applicable to Skylight; therefore, its shareholders may not know on as timely a basis when the Company’s officers, directors and principal shareholders purchase or sell Common Shares, as the reporting periods under the corresponding Canadian insider reporting requirements are longer. There is no assurance that the Company will continue to remain eligible as an FPI or eligible to utilize MJDS, and the loss of eligibility for either would result in the Company becoming subject to additional compliance obligations under U.S. federal securities laws, including in connection with registering securities under the U.S. Securities Act and complying with U.S. Exchange Act reporting requirements, the additional costs of which could be significant.
The Company also qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the United States Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These reduced reporting requirements include an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Skylight may take advantage of some of these exemptions until it is no longer an emerging growth company. Skylight could remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause the Company to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of the Common Shares held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700.0 million as of the end of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, if we have total annual gross revenue of US$1.07 billion or more during any fiscal year, or if the Company issues more than US$1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during any three-year period.
If Skylight chooses to take advantage of the exemptions available to emerging growth companies, information we provide to you may be different than you might get from other public companies in which you hold securities. Further, investors could find the Common Shares less attractive if we choose to rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the Common Shares less attractive as a result of any choices to reduce future disclosure, the trading market and price of the Common Shares may be adversely affected.
PFIC Status
Based upon the nature of the Company’s current business activities, the Company does not believe it was a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. income tax purposes for its 2020 fiscal year, and does not expect to be a PFIC in its current taxation year. However, the tests for determining PFIC status are based upon the composition of the income and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates from time to time, and it is difficult to make accurate predictions of future income and assets. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will not become a PFIC in the future. A non-U.S. corporation generally will be considered a PFIC for any taxable year if either: (i) at least 75% of its gross income is passive income; or (ii) at least 50% of the value of its assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income (which generally includes cash). If the Company were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxation year, such characterization could result in adverse U.S. income tax consequences to certain investors in the Company in the United States.

Enforceability of Foreign Judgments
Two of the directors of the Company, Patrick McNamee and Grace Mellis and two of the officers of the Company, Paul Kulas and Georges Feghali, reside outside of Canada. Some or all of the assets of such persons may be located outside of Canada. It may not be possible for investors to collect from such persons or enforce judgments obtained in Canada predicated on the civil liability provisions of Canadian securities legislation against such directors and officers of the Company. Although, each of Mr. McNamee, Ms. Mellis, Mr. Kulas and Dr. Feghali has appointed the Company as their agent for service of process in Canada, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within Canada upon such directors and officers of the Company. In addition, it may not be possible for investors or any other person or entity to assert claims under Canadian securities laws or otherwise in original actions instituted in a foreign jurisdiction. Consequently, investors may be effectively prevented form pursing remedies against such person under Canadian securities laws or otherwise.
Negative Operating Cash Flow
The Company has historically not generated cash flow from operations. The Company is devoting significant resources to its business, however there can be no assurance that it will generate positive cash flow from operations in the future. The Company may continue to incur negative consolidated operating cash flow and losses. The Company had negative operating cash flows from operations until the second quarter of fiscal 2020 and reported a total comprehensive loss of approximately $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and approximately $9.47 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. To the extent that the Company has negative cash flow in future periods, the Company may need to deploy a portion of its cash reserves to fund such negative cash flow. Following the completion of the corporate finance transactions between September and December of 2020, the Company had reduced its long-term debt to nil as at December 31 2020. The Company has sufficient cash reserves to meet all its contingent obligations including under its acquisition agreements. Management of the Company continues to be of the view that its Paycheck Protection Loan will be forgiven. The Company has made an application which has been approved by its lender and is currently waiting for approval from the US government. The clinical groups were cash flow positive in the second and third quarters of 2020 and the Company remains cash flow positive within its clinical operations. While it continues to be aggressive in its corporate acquisition strategy, management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet its obligations and continue to operate its business at its present rate.
Public Health Crises such as the COVID-19 Pandemic and other Uninsurable Risks
Events in the financial markets have demonstrated that businesses and industries throughout the world are very tightly connected to each other. General global economic conditions seemingly unrelated to the Company or to the medical health services sector, including, without limitation, interest rates, general levels of economic activity, fluctuations in the market prices of securities, participation by other investors in the financial markets, economic uncertainty, national and international political circumstances, natural disasters, or other events outside of the Company’s control may affect the activities of the Company directly or indirectly. The Company’s business, operations and financial condition could also be materially adversely affected by the outbreak of epidemics or pandemics or other health crises. For example, in late December 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) originated, subsequently spread worldwide and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared it was a pandemic. The risks of public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic to the Company’s business include without limitation, the ability to raise funds, employee health, workforce productivity, increased insurance premiums, limitations on travel, the availability of industry experts and personnel, disruption of the Company’s supply chains and other factors that will depend on future developments beyond the Company’s control. In particular, the continued spread of the coronavirus globally, prolonged restrictive measures put in place in order to control an outbreak of COVID-19 or other adverse public health developments could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business in the United States. There can be no assurance that the Company’s personnel will not ultimately see its workforce productivity reduced or that the Company will not incur increased medical costs or insurance premiums as a result of these health risks. In

addition, the coronavirus pandemic or the fear thereof could adversely affect global economies and financial markets resulting in volatility or an economic downturn that could have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s service offerings and future prospects. Epidemics such as COVID-19 could have a material adverse impact on capital markets and the Company’s ability to raise sufficient funds to finance the ongoing development of its material business.
All of these factors could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company’s business, including its operations and the market for its securities, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, and include the duration, severity and scope of the outbreak and the actions taken to contain or treat the coronavirus outbreak. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks, and the Company may decide not to insure such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the Common Shares of the Company. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic is over, the Company may continue to experience material adverse effects to its business, financial condition and prospects as a result of the continued disruption in the global economy and any resulting recession, the effects of which may persist beyond that time. The COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening other risks and uncertainties disclosed and described in this Prospectus and the AIF. To date, the COVID-19 crisis has not materially impacted the Company’s operations, financial condition, cash flows and financial performance. In response to the outbreak, the Company has instituted operational and monitoring protocols to ensure the health and safety of its employees and stakeholders, which follow the advice of local governments and health authorities where it operates. The Company has adopted a work from home policy where possible. The Company continues to operate effectively whilst working remotely. The Company will continue to monitor developments of the pandemic and continuously assess the pandemic’s potential further impact on the Company’s operations and business.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED TO
OFFEREES OR PURCHASERS
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA”), the Company may indemnify a present or former director or officer of the Company or another individual who acts or acted at the Registrant’s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Company or other entity. The Company may not indemnify an individual unless the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant, or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at the Registrant’s request and, in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable grounds for believing that their conduct was lawful. The indemnification may be made in connection with an action by or on behalf of the Company or other entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to which the individual is made a party because of the individual’s association with the Company or other entity as described above only with court approval. The aforementioned individuals are entitled to indemnification from the Company in respect of all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with the defense of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which the individual is subject because of the individual’s association with the Company or other entity as described above if the individual was not judged by the court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or omitted to do anything that the individual described above ought to have done provided the individual fulfills the conditions set out above. The Company may advance moneys to an individual described above for the costs, charges and expenses of a proceeding described above; however, the individual shall repay the moneys if the individual does not fulfill the conditions set out above.
The by-laws of the Company shall allow it to indemnify present or former directors and officers of the Company and other individuals who act or have acted at the Company’s request as a director or officer or in a similar capacity of another entity, to the fullest extent possible and in every circumstance permitted by the CBCA.
The Company maintains insurance policies relating to certain liabilities that its directors and officers may incur in such capacities. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the U.S. Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the U.S. Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.
