VANCOUVER, B.C. – December 13, 2016 – Mission Ready Services Inc. (“Mission Ready” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: MRS) is pleased to announce the initial order of its No-Contact Riot Shield Covers for use in a military application. Developed and fulfilled through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Protect The Force Inc. (“PTF”), the modest sub $9,000 order of 12 units represents the official commercial launch of this now market-ready product.

The No-Contact Shield cover, upon activation, releases a strong electrical pulse and an electrical shock sound and spark that deters an assailant. Similar to stun guns, the No-Contact technology is uniquely engineered into a textile composite that can be applied into any type of shield cover, including riot control and correctional facilities types as well as other form factors.

Requirements for this unique patented technology have been established through a product development effort that was initiated in FY2016 and has resulted in further intellectual property claims being filed by the Company. This order further validates No-Contact as a less than lethal technology that supports the unique mission sets of those who protect us.

The manufacturing of the No-Contact Shield covers will be done at the Company’s PTF Manufacturing Inc. facility in Jacksboro, TN and the key electronic components will be manufactured at the Company’s laboratory in Boston, MA.

Francisco Martinez, CTO states: “This small but fundamentally significant order is a milestone for the Company and the commercialization process.  We strive to meet the changing demands being placed on military and law enforcement personnel and we believe this product provides them with another tool to help them successfully complete their mission.  In addition to the application for this order, we have developed No-Contact Shield Covers for riot control units and for correctional facilities.”

VANCOUVER, B.C. – (TSX-V: MRS) – Mission Ready Services Inc. (“Mission Ready” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the United States launch of its newly engineered Tactical Shield Cover, a universal electrically conducted conversion kit for tactical shields. Incorporating the Company’s proprietary No-Contact Electro Muscular Disruption (“EMD”) technology, the patent-pending Tactical Shield Cover elevates a shield carrier’s ability to maintain control and defeat forward aggression and is ideal for crowd control, detainee operations, cell extractions, and incident management.

Conceptualized by industry-leading textile and integration experts with PTF Innovations – Mission Ready’s product research & development division – in conjunction with the US Army Special Operations Command, the Tactical Shield Cover was unveiled at the SHOT (Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade) Show, Las Vegas, NV in Jan 2016, a publicly-restricted show attended by over 64,000 industry-related individuals.  The Shot Show launch garnered tremendous interest from military, first-responder and law enforcement personnel. Combined with a visible, audible and voltage charge, the EMD technology – a critical component of the Tactical Shield Cover – provides an alternative solution that can minimize casualties and collateral damage.

The global riot control system market over the next few years is expected to exhibit a significant growth rate exceeding 5% during 2014-2020. The global riot control system market was estimated to be $3.8 Billion in 2014 and is expected to reach $5 billion by 2020 at a CAGR of 5.27%” according to a January 2015 article on MarketsAndMarkets.com. (http://www.marketsandmarkets.com/Market-Reports/riot-control-systems-market-121726213.html)

PTF Innovations CTO, Francisco J. Martinez, commented, “The development of a modular shield cover with No-Contact Implemented has been a breakthrough product development born from insight by our elite special operations community and federal correctional facilities. Their input, together with recent user evaluations, has demonstrated a capability that doesn’t exist in the marketplace. The initial soft product launch at the SHOT Show 2016 validated the interest and potential sales from the global relevant communities and we are now maturing our supply and manufacturing chain with an aim to begin product sales in mid 2016.”

The proprietary EMD technology, combined with PTF’s unmatched textile integration capabilities, transforms standard riot control and tactical shields – including those used by correctional facilities – into a highly-controllable tactical system with a removable, lightweight and durable cover. The modular design includes a fully detachable electronics system that easily packs away for storage or cleaning. Equipped with a convenient push button trigger switch to deploy the electrical current according to the operational scenario, the Tactical Shield Cover can be ordered to fit nearly all industry-standard tactical shields.

Protect the Force Innovations continues to push the envelope to deliver advanced textiles with embedded electronics for increased personal protection.

VANCOUVER, B.C. – Mission Ready Services Inc. (TSX-V: MRS) – Mission Ready Services Inc. (“Mission Ready”) is pleased to announce the development of an electric shock sleeve for riot shields that utilizes Mission Ready’s patented No-Contact technology.  The sleeve was developed to fit various types of ballistic or polycarbonate riot shields that are used by law enforcement, and military.

With the 100% owned and patented No-Contact technology incorporated into the riot shield covers, attackers are unable to grab or hold the shields, greatly increasing the safety and protection of law enforcement and military personnel.

Based on feedback from the US Army Special Operations community, Mission Ready has developed a universal solution to fit ballistic or polycarbonate riot shields known as the No-Contact Modular Shield Cover. The riot shield cover greatly reduces the risk of an attacker grabbing or forcefully evading a police officer in a crowd control or riot situation through the delivery of a non-lethal but highly deterring electrical discharge, protecting the law enforcement officer or military personnel.

After demonstrating at the 2015 Las Vegas Shot Show®, the shield cover has been requested by numerous US, International Military and law enforcement agencies including correctional facilities and riot control forces for testing and evaluation.  In addition, following the Company’s most recent demonstrations of the shield cover to the Colombian National Police Riot Control Unit, initial user evaluations in Colombia are slated for July 2015.

“Riot shields are used in almost every country with a standardized police force.  The modular design, which allows the shield cover to be retrofitted to any shield, regardless of type or size, is a tremendously efficient and cost-saving feature for the end-user. This product greatly enhances the safety of our law enforcement officers who risk their lives, such as the forces that worked to protect the citizens of the unfortunate recent riots in New York and Ferguson in 2014 and current events in Baltimore. This is a world-wide market and, with our patents and partners in the program, Mission Ready is well positioned to gain first-mover advantage to be the leader in this revolutionary technology” states Francisco Martinez, Chief Technology Officer of Mission Ready.

The Mission Ready Technologies group is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mission Ready Services (TSX-V: MRS) developing, enhancing, testing and pioneering new and advanced technologies relating to defense and personal protection. Comprised of a highly qualified team of diverse innovators and product experts, Mission Ready Technologies provides research and development expertise to government organizations and private industry while also utilizing its knowledge and proficiencies in the advancement of the Company’s own portfolio of ground-breaking new defense & security-related products.
