Annual Filings

Further to its press releases disseminated on May 29, 2020 and June 26, 2020, Braingrid obtained a temporary exemption (the "OSC Annual Temporary Exemption") under Ontario Securities Commission (“OSC”) Instrument 51-502 Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements(“Instrument 51-502”) in respect of the deadline to file the Annual Filings due to delays experienced as result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to such delays, Braingrid was unable to file the Annual Filings on or before the deadline of July 14, 2020 under the OSC Annual Temporary Exemption. As a result, Braingrid has been noted in default on the OSC’s reporting issuer default list and a cease trade order may be issued by the OSC suspending the trading of Braingrid’s common shares.

Braingrid is continuing to work diligently and expeditiously with its auditors to file the Annual Filings on or before July 31, 2020 and will issue a news release announcing completion of such filings at such time.
