Biomind Research Corp. and Crosswinds Holdings Inc. Announce Definitive Agreement to Complete Reverse Takeover
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – February 22, 2021) – Crosswinds Holdings Inc. (TSX: CWI) (“Crosswinds“) and Biomind Research Corp. (“Biomind” or the “Company“) are pleased to announce the execution of an arm’s length binding definitive agreement (the “Definitive Agreement“) between Biomind, Crosswinds and Crosswinds’ majority shareholder, pursuant to which Crosswinds has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Biomind (the “Proposed Transaction“). Following the completion of the Proposed Transaction, Crosswinds (the “Resulting Issuer“) will continue the business of Biomind, being the research, development and commercialization of innovative psychotropic pharmaceutical products for the treatment of psychiatric and neurological conditions. The Resulting Issuer intends to apply to have its common shares listed and posted for trading on the NEO Exchange (the “Exchange“) under the name “Biomind Labs Inc.”
About Biomind
Biomind is a biotech research and development company aimed at transforming the ancestral therapeutic knowledge from natural psychotropic plants into novel pharmaceutical drugs and nanotech delivery systems for a variety of psychiatric and neurological conditions. Through its acceleration platform, Biomind is initially developing novel pharmaceutical sole and combined formulations of the main four natural psychedelic molecules, N, N-dimenthyltryptamine (DMT), psilocybin, mescaline and ibogaine with the aim of identifying novel pharmaceutical compounds for treating a wide range of therapeutic indications. For each of the natural psychedelic molecules, Biomind is seeking to design a library of 20-30 novel molecules in order to create an extensive portfolio of patentable molecules to be marketed by Biomind and/or licensed to large pharmaceutical companies. Through an authorized third party contract research organization (CRO), Biomind has designed six initial clinical trials of which one has already commenced and another two are anticipated to begin in early March 2021. These initial clinical trials are planned to be completed in Brazil, a jurisdiction which conducted the first randomized, placebo-controlled and government authorized clinical trial of psychedelic assisted treatment for a psychiatric disorder, thereby providing Biomind with a unique advantage to accelerate the molecule to market lifecycle. Biomind anticipates conducting additional clinical trials in the near future in Brazil as well as in Switzerland and the United States.
Proposed Transaction
It is currently anticipated that Crosswinds will acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Biomind (“Biomind Shares“) by way of a three-cornered merger pursuant to a plan of merger under the laws of the British Virgin Islands whereby a newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary of Crosswinds will merge with Biomind (the “Merger“) with the resulting entity (“MergerCo“) continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crosswinds. The Resulting Issuer will continue the business of MergerCo. The final terms and structure of the Proposed Transaction may be revised in order to give effect to applicable financial, legal, tax and securities considerations.
As consideration for the completion of the Proposed Transaction, and subject to customary adjustments, including any consolidation of the outstanding common shares of Crosswinds (the “Crosswinds Shares“) that may be effected prior to closing, holders of Biomind Shares will receive such number of common shares of the Resulting Issuer (each, a “Resulting Issuer Share“), for each one (1) Biomind Share (the “Exchange Ratio”), as is equal to the issuance price of the Biomind Shares pursuant to the Concurrent Financing (as defined below), multiplied by the quotient which results when CDN$1,000,000 is divided by the fully-diluted number of Crosswinds Shares outstanding on the closing of the Proposed Transaction. The Exchange Ratio is based on a valuation of Crosswinds, on a fully-diluted basis, of CDN$1,000,000. Any outstanding options, warrants or other exchangeable or convertible securities of Biomind will be exchanged, on an equivalent basis, for securities of the Resulting Issuer.
Completion of the Proposed Transaction will be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions including, among others, (A) the completion of the Concurrent Financing (described below) on or before May 20, 2021, (B) receipt all necessary board, shareholder and regulatory approvals of Crosswinds and Biomind for the Proposed Transaction and related arrangements, (C) each party being satisfied with its legal and financial due diligence review of the respective party and its business; and (D) approval of the listing of the Resulting Issuer Shares on an applicable Canadian stock exchange.
It is anticipated that pursuant to the Proposed Transaction, Crosswinds will change its name to Biomind Research Inc. (the “Name Change“) and continue from under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) into British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Continuance“).
The Proposed Transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.
Concurrent Financing
Biomind has retained Canaccord Genuity Corp. (“Canaccord“) as agent and sole bookrunner, to sell, on a best efforts private placement basis, subscription receipts of Biomind (each, a “Subscription Receipt“) for aggregate gross proceeds of up to approximately CDN$20,000,000 (the “Concurrent Financing”).
Upon satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions customary of financings of this nature, and subject to adjustment in certain events, it is anticipated that each Subscription Receipt issued in connection with the Concurrent Financing shall be exchanged, without payment of any additional consideration and without further action on the part of the holder thereof, for one (1) Biomind Share. Upon the completion of the Proposed Transaction, holders of Biomind Shares issued upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts will be entitled to receive for each Biomind Share so held, without payment of any additional consideration and without further action on the part of the holder thereof, freely tradeable Resulting Issuer Shares in accordance with the Exchange Ratio. The issue price, as well as the definitive terms of the Subscription Receipts and Concurrent Financing will be determined in the context of the market at the time of the Concurrent Financing and will be subject to the provisions of a subscription receipt agreement, and an agency agreement to be entered into between the Company, Crosswinds and Canaccord.
Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the net proceeds of the Concurrent Financing are expected to be used to further develop the clinical arm of the business in Brazil, the United States and Switzerland in order to secure a global market entry for the novel pharmaceutical drugs developed by Biomind and registered under the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines Agency (EMA), Health Canada, Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA), among others, and for general working capital purposes.
Biomind and Crosswinds will provide further details regarding the Concurrent Financing, including a determination of the issue price of the Subscription Receipts in due course by way of press release.

Finastra Data Breach: A Wake-Up Call for Fintech Security
Source: KrebsOnSecurity
The cybersecurity landscape is buzzing after Finastra, one of the largest financial technology providers globally, confirmed an investigation into a potential data breach. Reports suggest unauthorized access to its systems, raising concerns about data security across its client base, which includes thousands of banks and financial institutions worldwide.
Implications and Challenges
While the details of the breach remain sparse, this incident underscores a glaring vulnerability in the fintech sector—cybersecurity. As financial services increasingly rely on interconnected ecosystems, breaches like these threaten not only individual institutions but also the trust customers place in fintech platforms.
The key takeaway for the fintech industry is clear: proactive cybersecurity strategies must go beyond compliance. Real-time threat detection, robust encryption standards, and regular audits are no longer optional but essential for maintaining operational integrity.
Future Considerations
This breach could trigger a domino effect, prompting regulators to tighten security standards and requiring fintech companies to double down on investments in data protection. Startups and mid-tier players, often lacking extensive cybersecurity budgets, may face significant pressure to keep pace.
