US$1.5 Million Term Loan

UrtheCast has entered into a US$1.5 million term loan (the "New Term Loan") with Bolzano Investments Limited ("Bolzano") through 1185781 B.C. Ltd. (the "Borrower"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The New Term Loan (i) accrues interest at a rate of 17% per annum; (ii) has a maturity date of January 15, 2020; and (iii) is secured by all of the assets owned by the Borrower and any net proceeds from the proposed sale of the Company's Deimos assets, if and when such sale is completed. The proceeds of the Term Loan will be used for general corporate purposes.

In satisfaction of conditions required by the lender, the Borrower agreed to pay Bolzano a finance fee in the amount of US$45,000 and UrtheCast agreed to issue to Bolzano 10,560,000 common share purchase warrants of UrtheCast having a maturity date of June 26, 2024 and an exercise price of $0.48 per common share (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, including if the Company issues any common shares or securities convertible into common shares, other than pursuant to its equity incentive plan, at a lower price, in which case the exercise price shall be reduced to such lower price), subject to approval from the TSX.

Bolzano is also a lender to the Company in connection with the US$12 million one-year term loan previously announced by the Company on January 14, 2019 (the "January Term Loan"). In connection with the New Term Loan, the terms of the January Term Loan have been amended to (i) increase the interest rate from 14% per annum to 17% per annum and (ii) include any net proceeds from the proposed sale of the Company's Deimos assets, if and when such sale is completed, as security.

Forward Looking Information
This release contains certain information which, as presented, constitutes "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking information involves statements that relate to future events and often addresses expected future business and financial performance, containing words such as "plan" and "propose", statements that an action or event "may" or "will" be taken or occur, or other similar expressions and includes, but is not limited to, statements relating to: UrtheCast's expectations with respect to its ability to raise capital and to continue as a going concern; expectations regarding UrtheCast's ability to meet its obligations and satisfy its liabilities under its existing indebtedness and the New Term Loan; and expectations regarding a proposed sale or other monetization of all or substantially all of Deimos Imaging and its related business and assets. Such statements reflect UrtheCast's current views with respect to future events, and are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by UrtheCast as at the date of this press release, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies. Many factors could cause UrtheCast's actual results or performance to be materially different from expectations that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, among others: the Company's ability to rectify its current cash constraints and to continue as a going concern; the Company's ability to enter into alternative financing for the UrtheDaily satellite constellation, and any delays or failures in the design, development, construction, launch and operational commissioning of the such constellation; the Company's ability to comply with debt and repayment obligations and avoid the exercise of lenders' rights, including with respect to seizing secured assets and other rights available to lenders, including Bolzano; lower than expected revenues from the Company's products and services; the Company's ability to fund its future operations, which is contingent on its efforts to raise additional financing and/or sell certain assets of the Company; the Company's ability to successfully complete a sale or other transaction involving Deimos Imaging on commercially reasonable terms, or at all; loss, reduction in scope, termination, failure to satisfy conditions precedent or decline in general of the Company's agreements or relationships with its key partners, including Land O' Lakes, Inc.; and those factors and assumptions discussed in UrtheCast's Annual Information Form dated March 29, 2019, which is available under UrtheCast's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. UrtheCast cautions readers that such factors and uncertainties are not exhaustive and that should certain risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying estimates or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements may vary significantly from those expected. UrtheCast undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements except as required by Canadian securities laws. Readers are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements.
