Last Mile Holdings Announces Late Filing of Interim Financial Statements and Receipt of Notice of Default

Last Mile Holdings Ltd. ("MILE" or the "Company") (TSXV: MILE) (OTC: AZNVF) announces that it was unable to file its interim financial statements for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 and the related management's discussion and analysis (" MD&A ") and certifications (the " Interim Filings ") by the filing deadline of November 30, 2020 as required by applicable securities laws.

In connection with the Company's inability to file the Interim Filings on time, the Company has applied for and been granted a management cease trade order (an " MCTO ") under National Policy 12-203 Management Cease Trade Orders (" NP 12-203 ").

The Company had relied upon the blanket relief provided by the Canadian Securities Administrators (the " CSA ") in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to extend the filing deadlines for the first and second quarter interim filings as the then acting CFO and could not enter the US and travel to Charleston in order to hire the necessary accounting staff at the Company headquarters. Subsequently, the recently hired CFO, resigned for personal reasons and the Company has announced a process whereby it is meeting with strategic partners seeking funding alternatives for the Company. The Company continues to work to complete the Company's third quarter interim financial statements, and expects to file the Interim Filings by December 31, 2020 , and will issue a news release once the Interim Filings have been filed.

Until the Company files the Interim Filings, it will comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in NP 12-203. The guidelines, among other things, require the Company to issue bi-weekly default status reports, in the form of news releases, for so long as the Interim Filings have not been filed.

During the MCTO, the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the Company's common shares listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. However, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer will not be able to trade in the Company's shares, nor will the Company be able to, directly or indirectly, issue securities to or acquire securities from an insider or employee of the Company except in accordance with legally binding obligations to do so existing as of December 1, 2020 . The Company is not currently subject to any insolvency proceedings. If the Company provides any information to any of its creditors during the period in which it is in default of filing the Interim Filings, the Company confirms that it will also file material change reports on SEDAR containing such information.

Corporate Update

The Company recently underwent a rigorous sales process in the face of impending insolvency due to circumstances principally related to Covid (including closures of colleges and significantly less mobility in the markets). Through the sale process, Rock Creek Advisors contacted over 100 strategic companies and numerous financial partners in an effort to maximize value of the enterprise as a going concern. The company received many offers to purchase assets and markets and reviewed each of these with our Board. However, none of the bids, alone or combined, were enough to enable the company to continue to operate and service its debt.

On November 25, 2020 , MSouth, Gotcha's primary secured debt holder, opted to sell its debt to a third party, Gotcha Mobile Holdings, LLC. The new debt holder issued a default and acceleration of the secured debt on November 27, 2020 . The Company has entered into discussions with the new debt holder regarding a restructuring of the Company's obligations.

In addition, Lou Lucido , the company's Chairman and Director has resigned from his position as Chairman and Director.
