DionyMed Receives Court Application Seeking to Appoint Receiver

DionyMed Brands Inc. ("DionyMed” or the "Company") (CSE: DYME; OTCQB: DYMEF), a multi-state cannabis brands, direct-to-consumer and distribution platform, previously announced that GLAS USA LLC ("GLAS USA”), as administrative agent, and GLAS America LLC ("GLAS America”), as collateral agent, under the Company’s credit agreement dated January 16, 2019 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement”) provided the Company with notice of default under the Credit Agreement and demand for immediate payment of the amount of US$24,810,682.80 plus any additional interest, fees and expenses (the "Demand Notice”). GLAS America concurrently provided the Company with a Notice of Intention to Enforce Security under section 244 of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) (the "BIA Notice”), which would entitle GLAS America to enforce its security over the Company and its assets after the expiry of a 10-day waiting period or earlier if the Company consented to an earlier enforcement.

The Company today announced that GLAS America has served the Company with a petition to the Supreme Court of British Columbia seeking the appointment of a receiver over all of the Company’s property and assets (the "Receivership Petition”). The Receivership Petition is tentatively scheduled to be heard on Tuesday, October 29, 2019.

The Company is reviewing and considering the Receivership Petition. It will continue to work co-operatively with its major lender towards reaching a restructuring solution for the business to continue operating as a going concern for the benefit of its stakeholders. At present, there can be no assurance as to what, if any, alternatives might be pursued by the Company and there can be no assurance that the Company will reach any solution with the Company’s lender, or as to the terms of any such solution, if achieved. Holders of the Company’s shares may face a loss of their investment as a result of a failure to reach a solution with the lender or as a result of a failure to reach a solution that includes holders of shares.
