TORONTO–()–Halo Labs Inc. (“Halo” or the “Company“) (NEO: HALO, OTCQX: AGEEF, Germany: A9KN) today announces that the Company has entered into an amended and restated promissory note (the “A&R Promissory Note“) for a principal amount of up to $10 million.

The A&R Promissory Note amends and restates the unsecured debt financing agreement (the “Original Loan Agreement“) that the Company entered into with a private arm’s-length lender (the “Lender“), as previously disclosed in the Company’s press release dated September 18, 2019.

Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Promissory Note, the Lender may convert the principal amount outstanding under the A&R Promissory Note into common shares in the capital of the Company (“Common Shares“) at a conversion price equal to the greater of: (i) 80% of the closing market price of the Common Shares on the Neo Exchange Inc. (or such other primary stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed) on the day preceding the date on which the Lender delivers a conversion notice to the Company; and (ii) $0.10. The initial term of the A&R Promissory Note was unamended and interest accrues at a rate of 9% per annum until September 18, 2020, following which the Company may extend the term for an additional 12 months at an interest rate of 13% per annum.

The A&R Promissory Note includes a commitment of the Lender to advance up to the full $10 million principal amount upon the request of the Company. As of the date hereof, the Company has taken an initial draw of $1 million which the Lender elected to convert into an aggregate of 9,090,909 Common Shares immediately following the entering into of the A&R Promissory Note.

The A&R Promissory Note contains language preventing the Lender from converting any amount outstanding thereunder if such conversion would result in: (i) the Lender and any person acting in combination or in concert with the Lender, holding greater than 9.99% of the outstanding Common Shares after giving effect to the conversion and issuance, without the Lender having filed and cleared a personal information form with the NEO Exchange; or (ii) the Lender and any person acting in combination or in concert with the Lender, holding greater than 19.99% of the outstanding Common Shares after giving effect to the conversion and issuance.

In addition, in connection with the execution of the A&R Promissory Note, the 5,000,000 common share purchase warrants of the Company granted to the Lender in connection with the Original Loan Agreement have been cancelled.

“We are very pleased to have amended the terms of our existing loan agreement,” commented Kiran Sidhu, CEO and Co-Founder of Halo. “The amended and restated note will further strengthen Halo’s balance sheet and provide a capital line for the Company to draw upon as may needed.”

A copy of the A&R Promissory Note will be filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
