Eastside Distilling Extends Exercise Period of The Warrants (“EASTW”) Until September 20, 2018

EAST Warrants Will Cease to be Traded on NASDAQ at the Market Close on September 20, 2018

Eastside Distilling, Inc. (Nasdaq: EAST, EASTW) today announced that the warrant exercise period for its warrants to purchase shares of common stock, which were sold in its public offering of units in August 2017 and the warrants sold in the note offering between March and June 2018 (collectively, the “Warrants”), which was to expire at 5:00 pm Pacific time on September 14, 2018, has been extended by four business days to 5:00 pm Pacific time on September 20, 2018 (the “Redemption Time”). This announcement follows Eastside’s prior notice and extension to warrant holders of its call for redemption of the Warrants and is done to allow additional time for the remaining few warrant holders and their brokers to complete the paperwork needed to exercise the Warrants through DTC. This extension is being done to accommodate the holders of approximately 80,000 warrants that remain outstanding.

As previously announced, registered holders of the Warrants will have until the Redemption Time to exercise each Warrant for one share of common stock at a price of $5.40 per share. This additional extension of the warrant exercise period also extends the previously announced date for cessation of trading of the Warrants on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Warrants will cease to be traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market at the close of the market on September 20, 2018 and will be delisted from NASDAQ on September 21, 2018. Eastside’s common stock will remain trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol “EAST.”

In addition, Eastside will allow a three day “protect” period after September 20 to allow for settlement of exercised Warrants after the Redemption Time. Accordingly, any Warrants for which notice of guaranteed delivery is received prior to 5:00 pm Pacific time on September 20, 2018 shall be deemed exercised so long as the procedure for book-entry transfer via DWAC (or physical delivery of warrant certificates) is completed for the protected Warrants, and the funds required for exercise are received by Eastside’s Warrant Agent, Pacific Stock Transfer Corporation, by 5:00 pm Pacific time on September 25, 2018. Any Warrants not exercised by the registered holders will automatically expire on September 25, 2018, and Eastside will thereafter remit to the registered holders of expired Warrants the sum of $0.15 per Warrant. After expiration, registered holders of expired Warrants will have no rights or privileges other than to receive $0.15 per Warrant. The common stock underlying the Warrants is registered pursuant to registration statements filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If you are a beneficial holder of Warrants subject to the notice of redemption (i.e., your Warrants are held in street name by a brokerage firm or other nominee), you are advised to contact your broker, Lytham Partners, LLC (Eastside’s investor relations firm) at 602-889-9700, or Eastside’s Chief Financial Officer, Steven Shum at 971-888-4264.
