Halifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2021) - Sona Nanotech Inc. (CSE: SONA), (OTCQB: SNANF) (the "Company" or "Sona") a developer of rapid, point-of-care diagnostic tests announces that pursuant to an equity distribution agreement (the "Equity Distribution Agreement") with Canaccord Genuity Corp., the Company may, from time to time, sell up to $10 million of common shares ("Common Shares") in the capital of the Company (the "ATM Offering"). The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the ATM Offering, if any, principally for general corporate and working capital requirements, funding ongoing operations (including research and development), to repay indebtedness outstanding from time to time or for other corporate purposes.

Under the ATM Offering, Common Shares will be distributed at trading prices prevailing at the time of the sale. As such, prices may vary between purchasers and during the period of distribution. The volume and timing of sales, if any, will be determined at the sole discretion of the Company's management and in accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement. As of the date of this release, no Common Shares have been distributed by the Company under the ATM Offering or pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement.

Sales of Common Shares, if any, under the ATM Offering are anticipated to be made in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 - Shelf Distributions, as sales made directly on the Canadian Securities Exchange or any other recognized Canadian "marketplace" within the meaning of National Instrument 21-101 - Marketplace Operation. The ATM Offering is being made pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated April 9, 2021 (the "Prospectus Supplement") to the Company's short form base shelf prospectus dated March 31, 2021 (the "Base Shelf Prospectus"), filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada.

A copy of the Prospectus Supplement (as well as the related Base Shelf Prospectus) can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Common Shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
