Montreal, Canada, January 23, 2018 Earth Alive Clean Technologies Inc. (CSE: EAC) (“Earth Alive” or the “Corporation”) founder David Gilmour has entered into a sales agreement with Financiere GMSL Inc., an entity controlled by Louis Lessard.

As part of the transaction, Mr. Gilmour has agreed to discontinue his legal proceedings against the corporation, three of its directors and an officer. This transaction remains subject to certain closing conditions and is expected to be completed in the coming days.

Robert Blain, chair, stated: « This is a very positive outcome; with legal uncertainty behind us, we can now move forward and fully focus Earth Alive’s energy and resources on its operational growth. We are pleased that all parties involved have agreed that this resolution is in the best interest of Earth Alive and all of its shareholders. » Mr. Gilmour further added, « I am relieved that this episode is behind us, and I remain optimistic about the future of Earth Alive and wish it a successful journey going forward. »

The shares were acquired by GMSL for investment purposes, with a long-term view of its investment. GMSL may acquire additional securities of the corporation either on the open market or through private acquisitions or sell securities of the corporation either on the open market or through private dispositions in the future depending on market conditions, reformulation of its plans and/or other relevant factors.
