Shareholders May Submit Online Proxy Votes until 5PM EST Monday, March 9th — Company Confirms it has Applied to have CTO Revoked

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 6, 2020) –  HyperBlock Inc. (CSE: HYPR) (“HyperBlock” or the “Company“) today announced it has extended the online proxy voting window for its Annual General and Special Shareholders Meeting (“AGM”).

Update on Application to Lift CTO
The Company also confirmed that it has applied to have the cease trade orders in respect of its shares revoked. While the Company will undertake all reasonable efforts to have the cease trade orders revoked as soon as possible, there can be no assurance that the cease trade orders will be revoked. The Company will continue to provide further updates when available.

Items to be Considered at the AGM
The agenda for the AGM originally included a special resolution authorizing the consolidation of the Company’s share capital at a ratio to a maximum of 10:1. The Company announced on February 28, 2020 that it had decided not to proceed with the share consolidation after further consultation with its shareholders and professional advisors. Accordingly, the motion on the proposed share consolidation will not be put forth for a vote by shareholders at the AGM.

All other items of business indicated in the Company’s Notice of Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders and Management Information Circular dated February 7, 2020 will proceed as planned. Shareholders are encouraged to attend the meeting or, if unable to attend, to complete and submit their form of proxy or voting instruction form in advance of the meeting.

Shareholders who need assistance in voting their proxies are invited to get in touch at [email protected] or by calling 1-800-613-4721.
