NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 06, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aim Explorations Ltd. (TSX-V:AXN.P) ("AIM" or the "Company"), a capital pool company, is pleased to announce that it has filed a filing statement (the "Filing Statement") dated February 6, 2018 regarding its proposed qualifying transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") with DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. ("DMG") and received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") for the Qualifying Transaction. The Company’s proposed transaction with DMG will constitute a “Qualifying Transaction” as defined in the policies of the TSXV and the resulting issuer will be a Tier 2 technology issuer (the "Resulting Issuer"). Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, it is intended that the Resulting Issuer will be known as "DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc."
In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of DMG by way of a three-cornered amalgamation whereby DMG will amalgamate with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Closing of the Qualifying Transaction is expected to occur on or about February 8, 2018, or such other date as AIM and DMG may determine.
The completion of the Qualifying Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to receipt of all required regulatory consents, including final TSXV acceptance. Concurrent with closing of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company’s previously announced private placement (the "Offering") of subscription receipts (each, a "Subscription Receipt") led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the "Lead Agent") and Paradigm Capital Inc. (together with the Lead Agent, the "Agents") is expected to convert into Resulting Issuer Shares (as defined below). Pursuant to the terms of the agency agreement (the "Agency Agreement") among the Company, DMG and the Agents dated December 28, 2017, the Offering included the sale of 35,076,000 Subscription Receipts at a price of C$0.80 per Subscription Receipt, for aggregate gross proceeds of C$28,060,800. The gross proceeds of the Offering (the "Escrowed Proceeds") are held in escrow by Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the "Escrow Agent") pursuant to a subscription receipt agreement among AIM, DMG, the Lead Agent and the Escrow Agent and will be released upon completion of the escrow release conditions. Each Subscription Receipt shall entitle the holder thereof to receive, upon satisfaction of the escrow release conditions on or before the escrow release deadline of February 9, 2018 or such other date and time as may be agreed to by AIM, DMG and the Agents (the "Escrow Release Deadline"), including all conditions precedent to the Qualifying Transaction being satisfied, and without payment of additional consideration therefor, one common share in the capital of the Resulting Issuer (each, a "Resulting Issuer Share").
In addition to proceeds raised under the Offering of Subscription Receipts, the Company has also received orders to date for 862,500 common shares (each, a "Share") at a price of C$0.80 per Share for gross proceeds of C$690,000 (the "Common Share Private Placement"). The Common Share Private Placement is expected to close concurrently with the closing of the Qualifying Transaction. The Shares issued under the Common Share Private Placement are subject to a hold period of four months and a day from the date of issuance. The Common Share Private Placement is expected to close concurrently with closing of the Qualifying Transaction.
Trading in the common shares of AIM is currently halted and will resume under the symbol “DMGI” following publication of the Final Exchange Bulletin by the TSXV in respect of the closing of the Qualifying Transaction.
Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the Filing Statement, any information released or received with respect to the Qualifying Transaction may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of a capital pool company should be considered highly speculative. There can be no assurance that the Qualifying Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.
Please see the Filing Statement, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com., for more information regarding the Qualifying Transaction, DMG and its business. The Company will issue additional news releases related to the Qualifying Transaction and other material information as it becomes available.
