Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - April 19, 2023 - AdRabbit Limited (TSXV:RABI) (the “Company”) announced today that it expects that it will not be filing its audited financial statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the "2022 Annual Financial Statements"), its management's discussion and analysis relating thereto, and chief executive officer and chief financial officer certificates relating to the 2022 Annual Financial Statements (collectively, the "Required Filings") before the prescribed deadline of May 1, 2023.

The expected delay in filing the Required Filings is principally related to the late commencement of the audit of the Annual Financial Statements and related preparation of the Required Filings due to the logistical complexity of an Australian company traded in Canada and due to the lack of immediately available funds and late payment of fees to the Company's auditor. As previously announced on March 23, 2023, and April 10, 2023, the Company has been undertaking a convertible loan financing (the “Offering”) in order to cover, in part, the expenses relating to the completion and filing of the Required Filings. The closing of the first tranche of the Offering took longer than expected and was completed on April 11, 2023. The Company has since settled the necessary fees to its auditor and the audit has commenced. Given that the audit of the 2022 Annual Financial Statements is underway, the Company expects that the Required Filings will be filed, and the continuous disclosure default remedied by the end of May 2023.

The Company is in the process of making an application with the British Columbia Securities Commission ("BCSC") and other applicable securities regulators under National Policy 12-203 - Cease Trade Orders for Continuous Disclosure Defaults ("National Policy 12-203") requesting that a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") be imposed in respect of this late filing. There is no guarantee or assurance that the MCTO will be granted. If the MCTO is granted, the MCTO will prohibit the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, and possibly the directors, other officers, and other insiders of the Company from trading in securities of the Company for so long as the Required Filings are not filed. The issuance of such cease trade order does not generally affect the ability of persons who are not directors, officers, or other insiders of the Company to trade in the Company's securities.

The Company confirms that it will satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under National Policy 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases so long as it remains in default of the filing requirements set out above.
