                                             INVESTOR UPDATE

Vancouver, B.C.   18 October 2017- Global Remote Technologies Ltd. (the "Company") (CSE:RGT),
(Frankfurt Stock Exchange:GR9) would like to provide an update to investors regarding the current status of
the company.

GRT recently had our CFO, Rebecca Kingery, resign for personal reasons. See PR from 24 Aug 2017
regarding the change of Directors. Since then, her Director seat has been filled by Par Bennstrom, Kane Smith,
the Company President, has been filling the CFO position. GRT is currently interviewing several candidates for
the CFO position, in addition to bringing on 1-2 more Directors. We have also had discussions about some of
the current management changing positions or possibly leaving to pursue other opportunities. All of these
discussions and possible changes will hinge upon an investment group bringing in capital and resources to the
Company. We see this as a very positive benefit for the shareholders and are working diligently to make the
best selections possible to protect shareholder value and provide our customers with the best service possible.

We would like to make it clear at this time that there are no material changes in the Company or its operations.
