Peak Provides Update on Fund Transfer Extension Request

C.PKK

Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - May 13, 2016) - Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTC Pink: PKKFF) ("Peak" or the "Company") today announced that it has been advised by Zhonghai Wanyue Group Chairman, Mr. Jiang Wang, that it may take until May 31 to free up the necessary funds to complete the transfer of the balance of $3.44M due to Peak on the original $3.98M strategic investment partnership agreement between Peak and Mr. Wang.

"The cheque cashing industry in China has unfortunately been turned upside down since new regulations were passed earlier this year", explained Mr. Wang. "Everyone, including some of the country's larger banks, is still adjusting to the new rules, making it very difficult for the time being to cash larger cheques, which has put a premium on cash in the country. This has forced some of the industry's smaller players out of business, which is good for us in the long run, but unfortunately has made getting this transaction closed with Peak more complicated. I've now turned to alternative sources of liquidity and expect to be able to resolve this issue shortly once and for all", Mr. Wang went on to say.

"We continue to be very supportive of Mr. Wang and his efforts to get the transaction closed as soon as possible", commented Johnson Joseph, President and CEO of Peak. "We want our shareholders to know that despite the fund transfer delays, we have started communicating directly with some of the Zhonghai Wanyue Group's subsidiaries to minimise the impact of the fund transfer delays on Peak's revenues once the transaction closes. We understand that these delays are frustrating for everyone. Nevertheless, we think that it's important for shareholders to know that we've worked very closely with Mr. Wang to ensure that these delays don't have a significant impact on our projected 2016 revenues", concluded Mr. Joseph.

Peak will make an announcement about the completion of the transfer as soon as it happens. However in the event the process runs until May 31, the Company will provide progress report updates on the process until it's completed.
