VICTORY SQUARE TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES TRANSACTION INVOLVING ITS WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY, BLOCKX
Victory Square Technologies Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary, Block X Capital Corp., has entered into a merger agreement dated Aug. 2, 2024, with an arm's-length party to Block X -- Edge Total Intelligence Inc. (EdgeTI).
Block X focuses on building blockchain, artificial intelligence/machine learning and cybersecurity solutions in the gaming, health care, entertainment and sports sectors.
EdgeTI helps customers sustain situational awareness and accelerate action with its real-time digital operations software, edgeCore, which unites multiple software applications and data sources into one immersive experience called a digital twin.
Terms of the merger agreement
Pursuant to the merger agreement, EdgeTI proposes to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Block X in exchange for an equivalent number of subordinate voting shares of EdgeTI by way of a three-cornered amalgamation under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) such that, upon completion of the amalgamation, EdgeTI will hold all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of the corporation that results from the amalgamation. Each subordinate voting share issued as part of the amalgamation to the holders of common shares of Block X will be issued at a deemed price per share of 40 cents for aggregate consideration of $1.7-million. The consideration paid was determined through arm's-length negotiation between EdgeTI and Block X. EdgeTI anticipates issuing an aggregate of 4.25 million subordinate voting shares in connection with the transaction.
A fee of $85,000 will be paid in connection with the transaction to a finder of EdgeTI, which will be paid through the issuance of subordinate voting shares at the deemed issuance price of the market price (as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) of the subordinate voting shares as of Aug. 2, 2024, being 43 cents.
Sheri Rempel, chief financial officer of the company, is also the chief financial officer of EdgeTI. Other than Ms. Rempel, the company and EdgeTI do not have any common directors or officers.
Closing of the transaction is subject to several conditions, including the receipt of the approval of the TSX-V and other requisite third party approvals.
