RM2 International S.A.

("RM2" or the "Company")

Transfer Pricing Audit

The Company's subsidiary, 7636156 Canada Inc. ("763"), which filed for voluntary liquidation on 1 May 2018 (as announced by the Company on the same day), has received a proposed adjustment to its 2013 taxable income related to the transfer pricing of intercompany services, from the Canadian Revenue Authority (the "CRA") for the 2013 tax year. The CRA has also advised the Company that a transfer pricing audit is on-going with respect to this subsidiary for the 2014-2016 years.

If, after final adjudication, it is determined that the CRA's proposed adjustment for 2013 has merit, then any taxes or penalties assessed by the CRA would be non-priority claims against the estate of 763. Such claims would reduce assets available to satisfy the claims of the other creditors of 763, including subsidiaries of RM2 (which have submitted clams to date totaling approximately USD500,000).

The Company believes the adjustments proposed by the CRA are not well-founded as RM2 applies a conservative transfer pricing policy. The adjustments proposed by the CRA will be vigorously contested by the Company.
