Great Oak Announces Agreement to Acquire Mijem Inc.
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – June 29, 2021) – Great Oak Enterprises Ltd. (“Great Oak” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement” or “Acquisition”) to acquire Mijem Inc. (“Mijem”), a technology company based in Ontario, Canada in a reverse takeover transaction with a view to applying for a listing of the Company’s common shares on a recognized exchange in Canada (the “Transaction”).
Mijem is the developer of the popular Mijem social marketplace, an intuitive online platform and application ecosystem which connects students with their peers to efficiently buy, sell and trade goods and services. To date, Mijem has established relationships with more than 70 university and college communities, including those of the University of Texas, the University of Toronto, the University of British Columbia, the University of Michigan and the University of Miami.
Key Agreement Details
The Acquisition is expected to close on or around September, 2021. Under the terms of the Agreement, Great Oak will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Mijem through the issuance of shares of the Company (the “Share Consideration”). The Acquisition and the resulting ratio of shares to be issued to the shareholders of Mijem will require Great Oak shareholders to approve a consolidation of its common shares on the basis of one new share for each 2.8294 common shares issued and outstanding prior to the completion of the Transaction.
Great Oak has agreed to increase the Company’s board of directors to five, of which four board seats will be allotted to Mijem nominees upon completion of the Transaction.
Mijem is required to complete a private placement financing of between $1.5M and $5.0M to be closed before or upon completion of the Transaction.
The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to, receipt of all necessary regulatory and third party approvals and certain other closing conditions.

Private Placement
Under the conditions to the Agreement, Great Oak has closed a private placement for $100,000 through the issuance of 2,000,000 common shares at a price of $0.05 per share (pre-consolidation).
