Board of Directors and Management

As previously announced, Effective March 1, 2018, Kris Parthiban has assumed the position as Interim President and CEO, as the resignation of Damodar Arapakota as CEO and from the Board of Imex Systems Inc. has been accepted by the Board.

The Company is pleased to announce that Issa Nakhleh has rejoined the board of Imex effective March 15, 2018. Mr. Nakhleh has been a CFO of high growth technology companies, both public and private, over the last 15 years. He currently serves as the CFO and Director of Tuangru, a Vancouver based SaaS company and prior to that he served as the CFO of UrtheCast, an Earth Observation company. He has his CPA, CGA and MBA and specializes in financing, strategy, operations and corporate governance.

The other two directors are Andrew Lindzon and Kris Parthiban. With the addition of Issa Nakhleh to the board, Imex Systems Inc. is fully compliant with the Exchange Policy 3.1 "Directors, Officers, Other Insiders & Personnel and Corporate Governance" section 5.6.

Annual General Meeting

The Company will be scheduling a shareholder meeting to be held at the end of June 2018.

Government of Botswana Business

The Company has entered into arbitration discussions with the Government of Botswana to settle the amounts billed to them under the previously announced $14 million contract. Both parties are working to resolve this situation in the near term for the approximately $5 million claim that the Company has previously disclosed as accounts receivable in its September 30, 2017 balance sheet.

Blockchain Opportunities

Further to the Company's press release on March 8, 2018 discussing blockchain opportunities, although the Company is investigating how such technologies may bolster the Company's existing service offerings, there is no assurance that the Company will undertake a blockchain opportunity, and if it does, it may constitute a Change in Business and may be subject to a halt in trading and Exchange review.

Performance Shares

The 2,500,000 performance shares which were previously issued by the Company have been cancelled as the requisite performance targets have not been achieved by ex-CEO of the Company. Following the cancellation of the performance shares, the Company has 17,754,301 common shares issued and outstanding.

Recommencement of Trading

The Company has applied to the TSX Venture Exchange to lift the suspension of trading of its shares. It is expected that the common shares of the Company will recommence trading on April 17, 2018.
