Arrive Acquires AirBox Technologies in Advance of Brüush Merger

Acquisition Broadens Patent Portfolio and Propels Arrive's Smart Mailbox as a Service Capabilities

VANCOUVER, BC and INDIANAPOLIS, IN / ACCESSWIRE / December 18, 2023 / Bruush Oral Care Inc. (Nasdaq:BRSH) ("Brüush") announced today that its pending merger partner, Arrive Technology Inc. ("Arrive"), a technology company focused on facilitating the last inch of the last-mile for autonomous delivery, has acquired AirBox Technologies ("AirBox"). This acquisition includes AirBox's patent portfolio, which Arrive believes will broaden the capabilities of its high-tech mailbox system designed for autonomous and conventional package delivery. In addition to acquiring the patent portfolio, AirBox's CEO Brandon Pargoe has joined the Arrive team as Vice President of Product Operations.

Based in Falls Church, Virginia, AirBox offers two smart solution products: Airbox Home and Airbox Deep. Both products offer an app-controlled, industrial grade, web-connected package delivery solution. Additionally, Airbox has secured patents pertaining to winch capabilities, a key component for autonomous delivery drones. Airbox was the first to fly drones beyond a visual line of sight with partners in Antigua, in collaboration with the government of Antigua, the United Nations Office for Project Services and ACT Antigua.

"We are excited to welcome AirBox and Brandon to our team. We believe his extensive background in technology, medical grade manufacturing and marketing will be accretive to our business," stated Arrive CEO Dan O'Toole. "AirBox holds patents that extend beyond their smart mailbox, covering the entire drone delivery process. We regard this acquisition as a valuable addition to our patent portfolio, a pivotal asset for our organization."

Mr. O'Toole added that just like Arrive, AirBox was meticulously developed from the ground up and its innovative intellectual property reinforces Arrive's standing at the forefront of smart mailbox technology.

Terms of the Arrive acquisition of AirBox were not disclosed.
