Ability Inc. Announces Resignation of Five Board Members; Controlling Shareholders Reiterate Their Commitment to the Company

TEL AVIV, Israel, April 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Ability Inc. (NASDAQ: ABIL) (the "Company"), a leading provider of innovative tactical communications intelligence solutions, yesterday announced that on April 9, 2017 its independent directors, Amnon Dick, Efraim Halevy, Amos Malka, Meir Moshe and Shalom Singer tendered their resignation from the Company's Board of Directors effective immediately. The Company is in the process of identifying replacement board members.

Anatoly Hurgin, Ability's Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Alexander Aurovsky and I, who together co-founded Ability and hold a majority of its shares, remain committed to the Company." Mr. Hurgin acknowledged that the Company is facing significant challenges, and further noted: "We are taking steps to reduce costs and position Ability for future growth. As part of this effort, both Alexander and I have agreed to reduce our salaries by 50%, and are exploring additional cost-saving measures. We will continue to focus on accelerating the adoption and revenue growth of Ability's ULIN solution. We are encouraged by the interest in ULIN around the world, and are hopeful that this interest will translate into revenues over the second half of the year. We believe that the Company's current cash position, including having over $8 million of cash and cash equivalents, should be adequate to meet Ability's near future cash needs. We will continue to evaluate the Company's financial position to determine whether additional funding sources, including through contribution by Alexander and me, are necessary."
