Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 14, 2018) - Tier One Capital Limited Partnership (CSE: TLP.UN) ("Tier One") announced today that it has adjusted the valuation of its holdings in its portfolio company, Intelligent Mechatronic Systems Inc. including its subsidiaries (the "Company") following the approval of the vesting and distribution order by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the "Court") and the closing of the sale of the assets of the Company on December 14, 2018. The Court approved, among other things, a transaction (the "Transaction") for the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets to Trak Global Group Limited ("Trak Global"), the vesting in Trak Global of all the Company's right, title and interest in the assets of the Company and the delivery of shares in Trak Global (the "Consideration Shares") to the senior lenders to the Company, which include Tier One.

Tier One estimates that the change in value of the Company upon the distribution of the Consideration Shares results in a decrease of approximately $0.64 per Tier One LP Unit. The costs incurred by Tier One to affect the sale process and receivership has resulted in a cost of approximately $0.45 per Tier One LP Unit.

Despite the adjustment to the valuation of the Company and the impact on the total assets of Tier One as a result of the Transaction, Management of Tier One and the Board of Directors of T1 General Partner Corp., the General Partner of T1 General Partner LP, the General Partner of Tier One (the "Board") believe that, going forward, the sale of the assets of the Company was the best course for the business of the Company. Under Trak Global, it is anticipated that the Company will be rationalized, and the operations will be supported with appropriate funding.

Trak Global operates a similar business in Europe, creating results-driven telematics solutions for the insurance, fleet, rental and automotive industries since 2009. Since the Company operates extensively in North America, the resulting Transaction represents ownership in a global telematics corporation with world-class technology. Management believes that there will be synergies through the combination of the Company and Trak Global, which will be reflected through an increase in the value of the Consideration Shares going forward.

All amounts presented are unaudited as of the date hereof and represent estimations based on information made available to Tier One. The final valuation adjustments are subject to continuing review and approval by the Board. The Audited Financial Statements of Tier One for the year ended December 31, 2018 will be made available on Tier One's SEDAR profile at .
