FLYHT Receives Government Loan and Subsidy Funds

CALGARY, Alberta, May 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FLYHT Aerospace Solutions Ltd. (TSX-V: FLY) (OTCQX: FLYLF) (the “Company” or “FLYHT”) today reported that it has received funds under two programs, each designed to support Canadian and American small businesses in keeping their workforces employed during the COVID-19 crisis.

Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”) program funds totaling $167,589 were received for Period 1, covering March 15 to April 11, 2020.

This one-time loan under the PPP is valued at US$585,235. The loan has been issued with an annual interest rate of 1% over a two-year term and with an interest rate of 1%.
