Many Bright Ideas Announces Loan Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – August 31, 2026) – Many Bright Ideas Technologies Inc. (TSXV: MBI.H) (“Many Bright Ideas” or the “Company“) announces that it has formalized the outstanding obligations owed to Weir-Jones Engineering Consultants Ltd. (“Weir-Jones Engineering“), a non-arm’s length party to the Company, by entering into a demand promissory note (the “Promissory Note“) effective August 27, 2026 in the aggregate amount of US$181,761.18 (the “Loan“). The Promissory Note is non-interest-bearing, unsecured, and payable five days after demand. The Promissory Note remains under review by the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange“) and is subject to Exchange acceptance. The Loan is not convertible into securities of the Company without prior acceptance of the Exchange. No finder’s fee, bonus securities or other compensation is payable to the lender or any third party in connection with the Loan. The Company intends to repay the Loan through a shares-for-debt settlement, subject to Exchange acceptance, or from future financing activities. Multilateral Instrument 61-101 The entering into of the Promissory Note is a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“) as Weir-Jones Engineering is a company under the control of Iain Weir-Jones, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President and a director of the Company. The Company is exempt from the formal valuation requirement in Section 5.4 of MI 61-101 in reliance on Section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 as the Company is not listed on a specified market within the meaning of MI 61-101. Additionally, the entering into of the Promissory Note is exempt from the minority approval requirement in Section 5.6 of MI 61-101 in reliance on Section 5.7(1)(e) of MI 61-101 as (i) the Company is in a situation of serious financial difficulty, (ii) the Loan is designed to improve the financial position of the Company, (iii) the circumstances described in Section 5.5(f) of MI 61-101 are not applicable, (iv) the Company’s board of directors and independent directors (as such term is defined in MI 61-101) had, acting in good faith, determined that the Company is in serious financial difficulty and the Loan would improve its financial position, and the terms of the Promissory Note are reasonable in the circumstances of the Company, and (v) there was no other requirement, corporate or otherwise, to hold a meeting to obtain any approval of the Company’s shareholders. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the entering into of the Promissory Note as the terms were not settled until shortly prior to execution and the Company wished to formalize the debt on an expedited basis in connection with its reinstatement to trading application with the Exchange. Trading Suspension Update The Company also announces that on May 11, 2026 the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC“) issued a failure-to-file cease trade order (the “Cease Trade Order“) against the Company as a result of the Company’s failure to file its annual audited financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis and related CEO and CFO certificates for the financial year ended December 31, 2025 by the filing deadline as required under applicable Canadian securities laws. As a result of the Cease Trade Order, trading in the shares of the Company was suspended effective May 12, 2026. The Company has since filed all of the foregoing outstanding documents, and, as a result, the BCSC revoked the Cease Trade Order. The Company has applied to the Exchange so that the trading of the Company’s securities is reinstated. Audit Committee Update The Company also announces that it has reconstituted its audit committee effective August 27, 2026. The audit committee is now comprised of Shumsheer Sidhu (Independent), David Diebolt (Independent) and Toby Weir-Jones. About Many Bright Ideas Technologies Inc.
