It is the intention of the parties that the resulting issuer from the Transaction (the “Resulting Issuer“) will carry on the current business of Adnimation.

In February 2021, Adnimation signed a new high-level license with Google to manage multiple online publishers under the premium Ad Manager 360 platform, attesting to Adnimations’ high quality offering and services.

The Agreement

Under the terms of the Agreement, the transaction will be effected by way of a share exchange. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company will effect a consolidation (the “Adjustment“) of its issued and outstanding common shares (“Company Shares“) prior to the completion of the Transaction (the “Closing“) into a number of post-adjustment shares (“Adjusted Shares“) that, when multiplied by the Issue Price (as defined below) will be equal to $2,250,000.

The Agreement includes a number of conditions to the Closing, including, but not limited to, a reconstitution of the Company’s board of directors and management such that they are comprised of Adnimation’s nominees, a change in the name of the Company to Adnimation Inc.

Adnimation has completed a non-brokered private placement of 8% unsecured convertible notes (“Adnimation Notes“) to raise aggregate gross proceeds of $3,433,339 (the “Adnimation Note Financing“). Each Adnimation Note will automatically convert into ordinary shares in the capital of Adnimation (“Adnimation Shares“) immediately prior to the completion of the Transaction at a conversion price of no less than $0.75 of the Issue Price and no more than $0.8 of the Issue Price and in addition, warrants to be exercised to shares of the company equal to a 50% premium of the Issue Price.

As we close out 2024, the fintech industry continues to deliver headlines that underscore its dynamism and innovation. From IPO aspirations to groundbreaking regulatory milestones, today’s updates highlight the transformative power of fintech partnerships, regulatory evolution, and disruptive technologies. Here’s what you need to know.

Chime’s Quiet Step Toward Public Markets

Chime, the U.S.-based financial technology startup best known for its digital banking services, has taken a significant step by filing confidential paperwork for an initial public offering (IPO). As one of the most valuable private fintechs in the U.S., Chime’s move could potentially signal a renewed appetite for fintech IPOs in a market that has been cautious following fluctuating valuations across the tech sector.

With a valuation that reportedly exceeded $25 billion in its last funding round, Chime’s IPO could set a new benchmark for the industry. Observers note that its strong customer base and revenue growth may make it an appealing choice for investors seeking to capitalize on the digital banking boom. However, the timing and success of the IPO will depend on broader market conditions and the regulatory landscape.

ZBD’s Pioneering Achievement: EU MiCA License Approval

ZBD, a fintech company specializing in Bitcoin Lightning network solutions, has made history by becoming the first to secure an EU MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) license. This landmark approval by the Dutch regulator positions ZBD at the forefront of compliant crypto-fintech operations in Europe.

MiCA, which aims to harmonize the regulatory framework for crypto-assets across the EU, has been a focal point for industry players aiming to establish legitimacy and expand their offerings. ZBD’s achievement not only validates its operational rigor but also sets a precedent for other fintech firms navigating the evolving regulatory landscape.

Industry insiders view this as a strategic advantage for ZBD as it broadens its footprint in Europe. By leveraging its regulatory approval, the company can accelerate its product deployment and establish trust with institutional and retail users alike.
