("Keon" or the "Company"), announced today that he has acquired, directly and indirectly through a wholly-owned company, a total of 570,272 common shares ("Common Shares") of Keon in settlement of outstanding debts owed by the Company (the "Acquisition").
The Acquisition was part of a number of Keon shares-for-debt settlement transactions aggregating to $236,636 pursuant to which the Company issued a total of 946,544 Common Shares to certain of its creditors at a deemed price of $0.25 per share (the "Debt Settlements"), as reported by the Company in its press release dated June 23, 2022. The Debt Settlements, including the Acquisition, were completed coincident with Keon completing a private placement financing in which it issued an additional 2,000,000 common shares at $0.25 per share to arm's length subscribers for total proceeds of $500,000 (the "Private Placement") which, taken together with the Debt Settlements, resulted in Keon issuing 2,946,544 additional Common Shares, increasing its total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares to 4,862,272 shares.
Immediately after the completion of the Acquisition, William Murray, through a wholly-owned company, disposed of 545,272 Common Shares in a series of private transactions at a deemed price of $0.25 per share for total consideration of $136,318 (the "Disposition").
Prior to the Acquisition, the Disposition and the Private Placement, Mr. Murray held directly and indirectly, an aggregate of 286,098 Common Shares representing approximately 14.93% of the Company's 1,915,728 issued and outstanding Common Shares.

Mr. Murray holds common shares of Keon for investment purposes and may increase or decrease his beneficial ownership in Keon as circumstances or market conditions warrant.
