(CSE: LNB) (OTCQB: LXGTF) (the “Company” or “Lexington”) announced on February 14, 2019 that it had been unable to secure the necessary financing to advance the development of its HeartSentry technology. The Company is currently considering its options, which may include selling the HeartSentry technology. The Company currently has no cash on hand and has negative working capital of approximately $700,000.
The Company previously received advances in October 2018 for the now cancelled private placement of approximately $330,000 including from certain directors, officers and arm’s length parties to the Company. The Company is now negotiating the terms of conversion of these advances with the arm’s length creditor.

As part of these negotiations the Company has agreed to consolidate its shares on a one new share for every ten old shares.
The Company continues to seek alternative sources of capital to continue to advance the HeartSentry Technology and administrative costs but has not as of this date been able to secure such capital.
On Behalf of the Board,
“Eric Willis”
