) (“

RDT

” or the “

Company

”) announces that due to circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ontario Securities Commission and other members of the Canadian Securities Administrators granted “Issuers” in the Canadian securities industry up to an additional 45 days, to complete quarterly statutory filings (the “Extension”). The Company was unable to file its unaudited financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the first quarter ended May 31, 2020 by its usual deadline of July 30, 2020 and will be relying on the Extension.

Accordingly, as required by the conditions of the Extension, the Company’s management and other insiders will be subject to a trading black-out that reflects the principles in Section 9 of National Policy 11-207 until its financial statements are filed, which will be by September 13, 2020.

As announced in a news release issued on June 26, 2020, the Company is relying on the Extension in respect of a late filing of its annual audited financial statements for the period ended February 29, 2020 and related management discussion and analysis (the “Annual Filings”).  The Company is continuing to work diligently to prepare and file its Annual Filings in accordance with the Extension by August 12, 2020.

Other than as previously disclosed by the Company in news releases, including the information herein, there are no other material business developments since the date of the Company’s most recent filing of its interim financial statements and management discussion and analysis for its Q3 ended November 30, 2019. The Company will be providing an update news release on the status of filing its first quarter filings by August 29, 2020.
