Spectra7 Granted Extension to Delisting Review Period from Toronto Stock Exchange


(TSX:SEV) Spectra7 Microsystems Inc. ("Spectra7" or the "Company"), a leading provider of high-performance analog semiconductor products for broadband connectivity markets, announces that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has decided to extend its delisting review period by 30 days to January 10, 2020.

On August 19, 2019, the TSX approved the Company's previously announced application for exemption from the shareholder approval requirements in connection with the Company's private placement on the basis of financial hardship and, as a result, the Company became subject to a remedial delisting review by the TSX. It is routine for the TSX to require any issuer utilizing the financial hardship exemption to be the subject of such review.

Financing Update

The Company continues to make progress towards the monetization of its patent portfolio and is evaluating its options for complementary near-term patent financing strategies.
