Wellfield Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “Wellfield“), is pleased to announce that it has completed the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination“) with Seamless Logic Software Limited (“SLS“) and MoneyClip Inc. (“MC“). The Business Combination was completed pursuant to a business combination agreement dated May 21, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement“) which outlined a series of transactions that will result in the merger of SLS and MC followed by a reverse take-over of 1290447 B.C. Ltd. (the Company as it existed prior to the Business Combination, referred to as “129 BC“) by the former shareholders of SLS and MC to create a unified business under the name “Wellfield Technologies Inc.”

Wellfield develops complementary, cutting-edge technology infrastructure designed to facilitate decentralized finance (“DeFi“) by streamlining cross-blockchain trading and making Bitcoin compatible with DeFi. In combining the companies, Wellfield wishes to create a new reality where money and financial services are accessible, streamlined, cost-effective, inclusive, work for the way people live, and are under their control. To do this, Wellfield is developing a blockchain-based infrastructure for financial services which will extend existing financial services to any participant in an open, cost efficient and transparent way through applications based on innovative blockchain protocols. Wellfield’s solutions will create an immutable and highly interoperable financial system with unprecedented transparency, equal access rights, and little (or no) need for custodians, central clearinghouses, or escrow services. By combining distributed financial protocols with regulatory compliant consumer applications, management has a unique vision to build a sustainable and disruptive business in the DeFi industry. Wellfield’s leading team includes founders and academic advisors with decades of experience in finance and technology, as well as deep knowledge in computer science fields related to blockchain, cryptography and complexity.

With the Business Combination completed, the Company will seek final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV“) for the listing of Wellfield Shares and Wellfield Warrants (as each term is defined herein) and expects to begin trading on the TSXV on or about November 30, 2021, under the trading symbols “WFLD” and “WFLD.WT” respectively, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions outlined in the TSXV’s conditional approval letter.

A listing application on Form 2B (the “Listing Application“) prepared in accordance with the policies of the Exchange has been be made available on the Company’s SEDAR profile, available at www.sedar.com, and contains additional information regarding Wellfield, the Business Combination and the Concurrent Financing (as defined herein).

Concurrent Financing

In connection with the Business Combination, Wellfield completed the previously announced private placement of subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipts“) at a price of $1.00 per Subscription Receipt (the “Issue Price“). A total of 20,475,000 Subscription Receipts were issued for aggregate gross proceeds of $20,475,000 (the “Concurrent Financing“). The Subscription Receipts were issued by 1308692 B.C. Ltd. (“Finco“), a special-purpose entity created solely for the purpose of completing the Concurrent Financing. Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Agent“) acted as the agent in connection with the Concurrent Financing to offer the Subscription Receipts for sale on a “best efforts” agency basis pursuant to an agency agreement dated July 16, 2021 among 129 BC, Finco, Seamless, MoneyClip and the Agent. Odyssey Trust Company (“Odyssey“) has been appointed as subscription receipt agent in connection with the Concurrent Financing pursuant to a subscription receipt agreement dated July 16, 2021 among Finco, Seamless, MoneyClip, Odyssey and the Agent, as amended (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement“).

Each Subscription Receipt entitled the holder thereof to receive, upon the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent such waiver is permitted) of the Escrow Release Conditions (as defined in the Subscription Receipt Agreement), without payment of additional consideration therefor, one common share in the capital of Finco (each, a “Finco Share“) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant in the capital of Finco (each whole warrant, a “Finco Warrant“). The Finco Warrants were governed by the terms of a warrant indenture between Finco and Odyssey dated July 16, 2021 (the “Warrant Indenture“). Each Finco Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Finco Share for a period of 36 months at an exercise price of $2.00.

In connection with the Concurrent Financing, the Agent received a cash commission of $552,085 and a cash advisory fee of $267,050 (collectively, the “Agent’s Fee“). Upon the completion of the Business Combination, the Agent was issued 552,085 compensation warrants and 267,050 advisor warrants (collectively, the “Broker Warrants“). Each Broker Warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share in the capital of Wellfield (a “Wellfield Share“) at the Issue Price for a period of 36 months (the “Exercise Period“). The gross proceeds of the Concurrent Financing, less an amount equal to 50% of the Agent’s Fee and all of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the Concurrent Financing, (the “Escrowed Funds“) were deposited with Odyssey until the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, following which the remaining 50% of the Agent’s Fee was paid to the Agent and the balance of the Escrowed Funds was released to Wellfield.

The proceeds of the Concurrent Financing are anticipated to be used principally to fund the Business Combination, and for research and development, marketing, sales, corporate and general working capital purposes.
