18.06.2019  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, June 18, 2019 - Trueclaim Exploration Inc. (TSXV: TRM) ("Trueclaim") is pleased to announce that, further to its news release of March 15, 2019, it has entered into a definitive agreement dated June 7, 2019 (the "Agreement") among Trueclaim, 1205619 B.C. Ltd. ("Subco") (a wholly owned subsidiary of Trueclaim incorporated for the purposes of completing the Transaction (as defined below)) and New Wave Esports Corp. (formerly New Wave Holdings Corp.) ("New Wave Esports"), an esports and competitive gaming investment company, incorporated under the laws of British Columbia. Pursuant to the Agreement, Trueclaim has agreed to acquire all the shares of New Wave Esports (the "New Wave Esports Shares") by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Transaction") between Trueclaim, New Wave Esports and Subco under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).


Transaction Matters

It is intended that in connection with the Transaction, Trueclaim will consolidate its common shares (the "Trueclaim Shares") on a 1.5:1 basis (the "Consolidation") and change its name to "New Wave Esports Corp." or such other name as determined by the parties (the "Resulting Issuer"). Under the terms of the Transaction, the shareholders of New Wave Esports (the "New Wave Esports Shareholders") will receive Trueclaim Shares in exchange for their New Wave Esports Shares on the basis of one post-Consolidation Trueclaim Share for each New Wave Esports Share. The Trueclaim Shares will be issued at a deemed post-Consolidation price of $0.15 per Trueclaim Share (the "Consideration Shares") to the New Wave Esports Shareholders. All of the outstanding warrants to acquire New Wave Esports Shares (the "New Wave Esports Warrants") will be exchanged for warrants of the Resulting Issuer (the "Resulting Issuer Warrants") and the New Wave Esports Warrants will be subsequently cancelled. The Resulting Issuer Warrants will be on same terms and conditions as such original outstanding New Wave Esports Warrants. Trueclaim is expected to delist the Trueclaim Shares from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") and to list the common shares of the Resulting Issuer on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") upon the completion of the Transaction.

The leadership team of the Resulting Issuer is expected to consist of Trumbull Fisher as President; Tiffany Lee as Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary; and Daniel Mitre as Chief Marketing Officer. The board of directors of the Resulting Issuer will consist of up to 5 members including Jeffrey J. Stevens, Mr. Fisher, Ms. Lee, and Byron Coulthard from Trueclaim.

Closing of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions and approvals, which include: the Transaction being completed by September 30, 2019; and the receipt of all applicable shareholder and regulatory approvals, including approval by the TSXV and CSE. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all. The Agreement provides for termination rights, including in the event the Transaction is not completed by September 30, 2019. The Transaction will be carried out by parties dealing at arm's length to one another and therefore will not be considered to be a non-arm's length transaction. Trading in the Trueclaim Shares will remain halted pending completion or termination of the Transaction.

To the extent permitted by the CSE, Trueclaim will pay, to certain parties, an aggregated finder's fee consisting of that number of Consideration Shares equivalent to 10% of the number of Consideration Shares issued to New Wave Esports Shareholders as part of completing the Transaction.

Further details regarding New Wave Esports and the Transaction will be provided in a listing statement to be filed by Trueclaim in connection with the Transaction and which will be available under Trueclaim's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
