Vancouver, BC - HAVN Life Sciences Inc. (CSE: HAVN) (OTC: HAVLF) (FSE: 5NP) (the "Company" or "HAVN Life"), announces that on November 9, 2023, the British Columbia Securities Commission (the "BCSC") has issued a general "failure to file" cease trade order pursuant to National Policy 11-207 - Failure to File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions (the "CTO") dated November 9, 2023 in respect of the securities of the Company as a result of HAVN Life's failure to file its audited financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2023 and the related management's discussion and analysis and CEO and CFO certificates (collectively, the "Annual Filings") by the deadline extended pursuant to a management cease trade order originally issued on August 30, 2023, and to file its interim financial results for the quarter ended July 31, 2023, and the related management's discussion and analysis and CEO and CFO certificates (collectively, the "Q1 Filings") by November 10, 2023.

The Company's FY'23 audit currently remains ongoing and as previously disclosed, is experiencing delays caused by the transition to a new audit firm. The CTO will remain in place until such time as the Annual Filings and Q1 filings are filed by the Company, currently expected before December 1, 2023.

The CTO prohibits the trading by any person of any securities of the Company in each jurisdiction in Canada in which the Company is a reporting issuer, including trades in the Company's common shares made through the Canadian Securities Exchange, for as long as the CTO remains in effect; however, the CTO provides an exception for beneficial securityholders of the Company who are not currently (and who were not as of November 9, 2023) insiders or control persons of the Company and who sell securities of the Company acquired before November 9, 2023 if both of the following criteria are met: (i) the sale is made through a "foreign organized regulated market", as defined in section 1.1 of the Universal Market Integrity Rules of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada and (ii) the sale is made through an investment dealer registered in a jurisdiction of Canada in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to remedy its filing default and have the CTO lifted in a timely manner or at all.

The Company is not currently subject to any insolvency proceedings. The Company also confirms that there is no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed as of the date of this press release.
