ACQUISITION HIGHLIGHTS MINING DIVERSIFICATION AND GROWTH
Cryptoblox Technologies Inc. entered into an arm's-length asset purchase agreement with 1001038815 Ontario Inc. on Oct. 30, 2024, to purchase five
IceRiver KS3 Kaspa mining units. Completion of the agreement is conditional upon, among
other things, approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange and the company and the vendor entering
into a management services agreement, the form of which has been settled, to provide for
the set-up and continuing maintenance, hosting and operation of the miners by the vendor.
The MSA provides for competitive electricity rate of 4.1 U.S. cents per kilowatt-hour, which is expected to
allow for efficient mining of Kaspa with low overhead costs. The total consideration under the agreement
for the miners and the MSA is 11 million common shares of the company, having a deemed value of
$1.1-million. A finder's fee of 550,000 common shares will be payable upon closing.
By acquiring and deploying the miners, Cryptoblox hopes expand its digital asset mining operations
beyond bitcoin, leveraging Kaspa's distinctive blockDAG technology. Kaspa's technology enables rapid
transaction confirmation and high throughput, which makes it an attractive option for miners.
The company also announces that it has granted five million restricted share units (RSUs) to key
management and consultants, to reward such individuals' continuing commitment to the company. Such
RSUs will vest as follows: 25 per cent after four months, 25 per cent after eight months, 25 per cent after 12
months and 25 per cent after 16 months from the date of grant. The grant of two million of the RSUs to a director and officer of the company was considered a related-party
transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions), but was exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval
requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, given neither the fair
market value of the securities issued nor the consideration provided therefor exceeded 25 per cent of the
company's market capitalization.
Akshay Sood, chief executive officer of Cryptoblox, commented:
"We are thrilled to enter the Kaspa mining market, as this represents an important step in our
commitment to diversification.
"This is a significant achievement for the company, given we will acquire a turn key operation, which
is expected to immediately generate cash flows, while preserving cash."
"We hope to rapidly continue to build out our diversified blockchain ecosystem and continue to build
value for our shareholders."
