Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – January 30, 2023) – WonderFi Technologies Inc. (TSX: WNDR) (OTCQB: WONDF) (WKN: A3C166) (“WonderFi” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced brokered private placement of units (the “Units“) for gross proceeds of $5,016,000 (the “Offering“). The Offering was conducted by a syndicate of agents led by PI Financial Corp., and including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and PowerOne Capital Markets Limited (collectively, the “Agents“), and consisted of the sale of 22,800,000 Units at a price of $0.22 per Unit (the “Offering Price“).

Each Unit was comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share“) and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant“). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.30 for a period of 24 months following the completion of the Offering, provided, however, that if the daily volume weighted average trading price of Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for any 10 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $0.47, the Company may, upon providing written notice to the holders of the Warrants, accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to a date that is 10 days following the date of such notice.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to support working capital requirements for planned operating initiatives at Bitbuy, and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

In connection with the Offering, the Agents received a cash commission of $300,960 and were issued 1,368,000 compensation options (“Compensation Options“), with each Compensation Option exercisable into one Common Share at the Offering Price for a period of 24 months following the completion of the Offering.
