__________________________

Additional Information and Where to Find It

This communication may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the proposed business combination with Coeptis and Bull Horn. Coeptis intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a preliminary proxy statement and a definitive proxy statement and other relevant materials in connection with the proposed business combination. The definitive proxy statement will be sent or given to the stockholders of Coeptis. This communication is not a substitute for the definitive proxy statement or any other document that may be filed by Coeptis with the SEC. SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE, BECAUSE IT WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE BUSINESS COMBINATION. The proxy statement and other relevant materials (when they become available), and any other documents filed by Coeptis with the SEC, may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website, at www.sec.gov.

Participants in the Solicitation

Coeptis and its directors, executive officers, other members of management and employees may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from Coeptis’ stockholders with respect to the proposed business combination. Investors and securityholders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names and interests in the business combination of the directors and officers of Coeptis in Coeptis’ filings with the SEC. Additional information regarding the interests of such potential participants will also be included in the preliminary proxy statement and definitive proxy statement when they are filed with the SEC.

No Offer or Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto do not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed business combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made herein and in the attached press release contain, and certain oral statements made by representatives of Coeptis and its respective affiliates, from time to time may contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Bull Horn’s and Coeptis’ actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “might” and “continues,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding (i) the technologies which are the subject of Coeptis’ option agreement with the University of Pittsburgh, (ii) Coeptis’ expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Bull Horn business combination, and (iii) the satisfaction of the closing conditions to such business combination and the timing of the completion of such business combination. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control of Coeptis and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement (as defined below); (2) the inability to complete the business combination, including due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of Bull Horn or other conditions to closing in the Merger Agreement; (3) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Bull Horn’s common stock on Nasdaq following the business combination; (4) the risk of significant redemptions by Bull Horn’s public stockholders in connection with the closing of the business combination, leaving the combined post-closing company with limited funds to finance its business plans; (5) the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations of Coeptis as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; (6) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth economically and hire and retain key employees; (7) the risks that Coeptis’ products in development (including those which may be acquired from the University of Pittsburgh) fail clinical trials or are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other applicable regulatory authorities; (8) costs related to the business combination and the exercise of Coeptis’ option with the University of Pittsburgh; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (10) the possibility that Bull Horn or Coeptis may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and (11) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic on any of the foregoing risks and other risks and uncertainties to be identified in the proxy statement (when available) relating to the business combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in other filings with the SEC made by Coeptis. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Readers are referred to the most recent reports filed with the SEC by Coeptis. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Coeptis undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to applicable law.
