THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. PERSONS.

The Tinley Beverage Company Inc. (the “Company" or "Tinley") is pleased to announce that its new President of Tinley California, Richard Gillis, has made a personal investment of $276,000 in the Company.

As a component of Mr. Gillis’ employment agreement, Mr. Gillis was given the opportunity to purchase common shares of the Company at a price which represents a 20% discount to the market price of the Company’s common shares.  This price was determined on January 7, 2019, which is the date the Company filed for price protection with the Canadian Securities Exchange.  Accordingly, Tinley issued 600,000 common shares to Mr. Gillis at an issue price of $0.46 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $276,000. The Company intends to use the proceeds for additional working capital as it rolls out the next-generation versions of its alcohol-free Margarita and Moscow Mule-inspired beverages, as well as the balance of its line-up of liquor-inspired “TinleyTM Tonics” and “TinleyTM ‘27” cannabis-infused beverages.

“We’re delighted that Rick has elected to proceed with this personal investment so soon after joining Tinley.  He has been deeply involved in our operations and are pleased with his enthusiasm over our position in this fast-growing consumer category,” said Ted Zittell, director of Tinley.
