January 30, 2023

CALGARY, AB, January 30, 2023 /CNW/ – Comprehensive Healthcare Systems Inc. (TSXV: CHS) (the "Company" or "CHS") is pleased to announce that it has closed its non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") as previously announced on January 12, 2023. Pursuant to the Private Placement, CHS issued 19,719,546 units of the Company (the "Units")for gross proceeds of $1,056,682.85.

The Company reserved a price of $0.05 per Unit for the PrivatePlacement by filing a price reservation form with the TSX Venture Exchange (the"TSXV"). As certain “insiders”(as such term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) (the “Insiders”) of the Company subscribed for more than 25% of the total Private Placement, pursuant to the policies of the TSXV, these Insiders acquired any Units exceeding 25% of the total Private Placement at a price of $0.07125 per Unit – such price being the DiscountedMarket Price (as such term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) of the shares (as defined below) as of market close on January 12, 2023. In total, Insiders acquired 8,610,730 Units for aggregate consideration of $501,242.05. Non-Insiders acquired 11,108,816 Units for aggregate consideration of $555,440.80.

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of CHS (a "Share") and a transferable common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable for a period of 24 months from the date it was issued (the "Exercise Period"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Share (a "WarrantShare") at a price of $0.10 per Warrant Share for the first 12 months of the Exercise Period and at a price of $0.15 per Warrant Share between 12 and24 months of the Exercise Period.

In connection with the closing of the Private Placement, certain arm's length finders (collectively, the "Finders") received fees equal to 7% of the gross proceeds for certain subscribers that were brought by those Finders for an aggregate total of $17,500. Additionally, the finders were issued an aggregate of 350,000 warrants expiring twenty-four months from the date of issuance (the "Finder Warrants"). Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder thereof to subscribe for one Warrant Share at a price of $0.10 per WarrantShare for the first 12 months of the Exercise Period and at a price of $0.15per Warrant Share between 12 and 24 months of the Exercise Period.

The Insiders are each considered a "related party" (as such term is defined under MultilateralInstrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101")). The participation by the Insiders constitutes a related party transaction as defined under MI61-101. In aggregate, Insiders purchased 8,610,730 Units. Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the Units acquired by the interested party, nor the consideration for the Units paid by such interested party, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the closing of the Private Placement as the participation therein by the Insiders was not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Private Placement.

The securities issued under the Private Placement were offered by way of private placement in Canada and to certain subscribers in the United States, pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements under applicable securities laws. All securities issued under the Private Placement are subject to a hold period that will expire on May 31, 2023.

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes and may also be used to fund the purchase price for the acquisition of Professional Benefit Administrators West, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company d/b/a Benveo (the "Benveo Acquisition"). For further details on the Benveo Acquisition, please refer to the Company's press release dated September 22, 2022.
