EARTH ALIVE ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF $3.5 MILLION FINANCING

Earth Alive Clean Technologies Inc. closed on May 5, 2023, a non-brokered private placement of units. Under the terms of the offering, a total of 175 million units were issued at a price of two cents per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $3.5-million. Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of the company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share upon payment of the exercise price of five cents per share until May 5, 2028.

"Earth Alive is now well financed and will be able to pursue its aggressive R&D strategy with a view to enhance its current products, add to its product portfolio and make its development plan a reality," said Nikolaos Sofronis, president and chief executive officer. "We strongly believe that our R&D efforts will allow us to lower the price of our products to the markets, translating into additional sales while maintaining healthy margins. With the closing of this offering, Earth Alive is well positioned to be amongst the leaders of the ecological transition," added Mr. Sofronis.

"I so strongly believe in this strategy that I invested an additional $400,000 in Earth Alive through the offering," said Mr. Sofronis.

"We appreciate the trust and support of long-standing investors such as William Vanderfelt, Robert Taub, Christian Dumolin (Koramic Finance) and Jurgen Hambrecht (JH Capital), and are also pleased to welcome new investors. I am proud that all directors of the company and acting members of management participated in the offering," said Robert Blain, chair of the board.

All the securities issued and issuable pursuant to the offering are subject to a four-month statutory hold period until Sept. 5, 2023.

Insiders of the company, including existing shareholder Mr. Vanderfelt as well as certain directors and officers of the company, participated in the offering and subscribed for an aggregate of 42,015,913 units with an aggregate value of $840,318.

Participation of insiders in the offering constitutes a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, but it is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of securities being issued to insiders nor the consideration being paid by insiders exceed 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization. The company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the closing of the offering as the details of the participation of the insiders of the company had not been confirmed at that time.
