Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time the statements are made and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this Current Report. These factors include, but are not limited to, economic conditions generally in the United States and internationally, and in the industry and markets in which we have and may participate in the future, competition within our chosen industry, our current and intended business, our assets and plans, the effect of applicable United States and foreign laws, rules and regulations on our business and our failure to successfully develop, compete in and finance our current and intended business operations.

You should read any other cautionary statements made in this Current Report as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this Current Report. We cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Current Report will prove to be accurate, and therefore, prospective investors are encouraged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. You should read this Current Report completely, and it should be considered in light of all other information contained in the reports or registration statement that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including all risk factors outlined therein. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future.

JUMPSTART OUR BUSINESS STARTUPS ACT DISCLOSURE

We qualify as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). An issuer qualifies as an “emerging growth company” if it has total annual gross revenues of less than $1.0 billion during its most recently completed fiscal year, and will continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

• the last day of the fiscal year of the issuer during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1.0 billion or more;

• the last day of the fiscal year of the issuer following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities of the issuer pursuant to an effective registration statement;

• the date on which the issuer has, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; or

• the date on which the issuer is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer,” as defined in Section 240.12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

As an emerging growth company, we are exempt from various reporting requirements. Specifically, we are exempt from the following provisions:

• Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires evaluations and reporting related to an issuer’s internal controls;

• Section 14A(a) of the Exchange Act, which requires an issuer to seek shareholder approval of the compensation of its executives not less frequently than once every three years; and

2

• Section 14A(b) of the Exchange Act, which requires an issuer to seek shareholder approval of its so-called “golden parachute” compensation, or compensation upon termination of an employee’s employment.

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until such time as those standards apply to private companies.  We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Sundance Strategies Redeems Shares as part of $124 Million Face Value Portfolio Purchase

Sundance redeems First Put Option Held by Hyperion Capital for 93,750 Shares at $8 per Share.

PROVO, Utah, June 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --  Sundance Strategies, Inc. (OTC QB: SUND), an innovative company engaged in structuring related insurance contracts, policies and obligations into secure, reinsured Net Insurance Benefits known as (NIBs), today announced that it has redeemed 93,750 shares of its common stock held by Hyperion Capital that were issued June 9, 2015. This represents the successful execution of the First Put Option of Hyperion Capital in a transaction that brings a portfolio of NIBs with an associated face value of $124 million to Sundance.

During March 2015, Sundance agreed to pay cash, issue common stock and forgive a note receivable in exchange for relief of a $1,493,254 note payable and the receipt of the NIBs. The net consideration given for the relief of note payable and receipt of NIBs totaled $1,493,254 and $7,846,746, respectively, for a total of $9,340,000 (of which $150,000 was in cash, $150,000 was in forgiveness of a note receivable and $9,040,000 was represented by 1,130,000 shares of common stock issued to Hyperion Capital). Of the original 1,130,000 common shares issued, an additional 93,750  shares still hold a redemption feature that requires the Company to buy back the shares for $8 per share ($1,500,000 in total, taking into account the First Put Option that has been paid) at the option of the holder no later than October 31, 2015.

Kraig Higginson, Chairman of Sundance Strategies, said, "We are pleased to have addressed the redemption of the shares, the first put option that Hyperion held. Given that this transaction is somewhat complicated, the successful completion of this portion of the arrangement is a significant milestone. The second put option that is set for the end of October will complete our obligations under the asset purchase agreement."

He stated, "We have set a goal of acquiring an additional $500,000,000 face value of insurance assets, then securing them with reinsurance and putting in place the necessary financing for the forward premium payments, by the end of this calendar year. The successful redemption of these shares from Hyperion brings us that much closer to that target."

Sundance, through its proprietary process, has been able to purchase, service and plans to hold to ultimate maturity, NIBs that have financing for 100% of ongoing premium payments and risk mitigating reinsurance, which reduces the overall risk profile typically associated with maintaining insurance based portfolios.

Additional information regarding this acquisition can be accessed in the Company's 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 15, 2015.
