Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 23, 2020) - Synex International Inc. (TSX: SXI) ("Synex" or the "Company"), is proud to announce that it has signed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire all the shares of Sea Breeze Power Corp. ("Sea Breeze").

Sea Breeze's assets consist of approximately 18 investigative licenses suitable for wind, solar and storage sites that Sea Breeze has been developing over 20 years at a cost of over $30,000,000. Projects are divided into four regions of British Columbia: North Vancouver Island, Central coast, Okanagan, and East Kootenays.

Synex views these wind assets as some of the best in class assets in British Columbia, and although there is no certainty that any of these projects will ever be built, Synex believes that wind power is the next generation of green power; and that as British Columbia, Canada, the USA and the rest of the world recover from COVID-19, society will demand green energy. Synex expects that Sea Breeze's assets could have the ability to provide up to 4,875 MW of green power, which will contribute to Canada's expected transition to a green hydrogen economy.

Additionally, the Company is pleased to announce that Synex Energy Resources Ltd. ("SER") has completed the sale of SER's 11% interest in the outstanding equity of Robson Valley Power Corporation for cash proceeds of $275,000 pursuant to a share purchase agreement with Mid-Mountain Developments Ltd.
