URTHECAST ANNOUNCES THE SIGNING OF NEW US$25M CONTRACT FOR URTHEDAILY CONSTELLATION

Urthecast Corp. has signed a binding contract for $25-million (U.S.) to provide data from the company's planned UrtheDaily constellation to a long-established commercial Earth observation operator and value-added services provider on the Indian subcontinent. The contract will provide Urthecast $5-million (U.S.) annually over the first five years of UrtheDaily operations.

In conjunction with the previously disclosed contracted revenue arising from the acquisition of the Geosys Technology Holding LLC, expected to close in the fall of 2018, this new contract brings Urthecast's total contracted revenue backlog to in excess of $300-million (Canadian).

"Driven by strong demand and a differentiated, value-added service offering, we continue to secure additional revenue commitments for the groundbreaking UrtheDaily constellation," stated Urthecast's president and chief executive officer, Donald Osborne. "In addition to moving us closer to unlocking the crucial first draw down of our UrtheDaily financing, this also advances our strategic initiative of expanding predictable, contracted revenue streams across the business, which now total more than $300-million (Canadian). This long-term revenue visibility and the continued support of a growing portfolio of sophisticated global customers give us confidence that the successful launch of UrtheDaily will establish Urthecast as the world's pre-eminent provider of data-rich geoanalytics solutions."
