NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 22, 2020 / Softlab9 Technologies Inc. (CSE:SOFT)(Frankfurt:APO2)(OTC PINK:SOFSF) ("SOFT" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has finished negotiations and on October 16, 2020, it entered into a letter of intent ("LOI") for the acquisition of Kosan Medical Company Ltd. ("Kosan Medical"). In conjunction with the signing of the LOI, the Company, in partnership with Kosan Medical now intends to begin sales of personal protective gowns and coveralls in Canada. Please refer to the Company's press release of October 19, 2020 for details on the proposed acquisition of Kosan Medical.

As a result of the LOI, the Company has secured 100% exclusive rights to distribute isolation gowns, coveralls and other personal protective equipment ("PPE") in partnership with Kosan Medical through their existing medical device establishment license registered with Health Canada. The products are manufactured in Vancouver, British Columbia and SOFT, having competed its due diligence on the products, are confident they meet and exceed all standards required at a competitive price point for bulk sales. It is expected that this arrangement will be finalized in the definitive agreement for the Company's acquisition of Kosan Medical.

The Company is currently preparing its own application for a proprietary medical device establishment license but is pleased to be able to enter the market earlier than expected.

Rahim Mohamed, CEO of SOFT said, "Partnering with Kosan Medical has allowed us to enter the PPE market in time to supply both federal and local customers with PPE in time for the winter and flu seasons. We anticipate the need for gowns to continue in the coming months and are equipped to supply a large portion of this demand with our existing supply agreements with our partners."
