Calgary, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – December 20, 2021) – Trees Corporation (“Trees“) and 1287406 B.C. Ltd., (“406“) are pleased to announce the closing of the previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement“) of subscription receipts of Trees (the “Subscription Receipts“). Pursuant to the Private Placement, Trees issued an aggregate of 101,500,000 Subscription Receipts at a price of $0.02 per Subscription Receipt (the “Subscription Price“) for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,030,000.

Summary of the Private Placement

The Private Placement was completed in connection with the previously announced proposed amalgamation of Trees and 406 (the “Amalgamation“), to be completed pursuant to the terms of an amalgamation agreement between Trees and 406 dated October 26, 2021, as amended and restated on November 10, 2021 (the “Amalgamation Agreement“). As previously announced, Trees has received conditional approval of the Neo Exchange Inc. (“NEO“) for the listing of the common shares (the “Resulting Issuer Shares“) in the capital of the the company resulting from the Amalgamation (the “Resulting Issuer“) on the NEO.

The Circular constitutes Trees’ “Listing Document” in the context of its NEO listing application. The Press Releases and the Circular are available on the SEDAR profile of 406 at www.sedar.com.

The Subscription Receipts are governed by the terms of a subscription receipt agreement (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement“) dated December 17, 2021 between Trees and Odyssey Trust Company (the “Subscription Receipt Agent“).

Pursuant to and in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement, each Subscription Receipt shall be automatically exchanged, without payment of any additional consideration or any further action by the holder thereof, for one class A common share in the capital of Trees (each, a “Trees Share“) upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain escrow release conditions set out in the Subscription Receipt Agreement (“Escrow Release Conditions“) at or before 11:59 p.m. (Toronto time) on April 16, 2022 (the “Escrow Release Deadline“), all in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

On closing of the Private Placement, the gross proceeds of the Private Placement, less 50% of the Finder’s Fee (as defined below) were delivered to the Subscription Receipt Agent (together with all interest and other income earned thereon, the “Escrowed Funds“), to be held in escrow pending the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions at or prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, in accordance with the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The Escrowed Funds will be released to Trees upon the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions at or before the Escrow Release Deadline, at which time each Subscription Receipt shall automatically be exchanged for one Trees Share. Prior to completion of the Amalgamation and in connection therewith, the Trees Shares shall be consolidated at a ratio of between 2:1 and 50:1 (the “Consolidation“), as determined by, and subject to the discretion of, the board of directors of Trees. Each post-Consolidation Trees Share will be exchanged for one Resulting Issuer Share upon completion of the transactions contemplated by the Amalgamation Agreement.

In the event that: (i) the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied or waived (to the extent such waiver is permitted) on or before the Escrow Release Deadline; (ii) prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, Trees announces to the public that it does not intend to or cannot satisfy any one or more of the Escrow Release Conditions; or (iii) the Amalgamation Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms at any earlier time, then Trees will direct the Subscription Receipt Agent to return to the holders of the Subscription Receipts an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Subscription Receipts held by such holder plus a pro rata share of any interest or other income earned on the subscription proceeds (less applicable withholding tax, if any). To the extent that the Escrowed Funds are insufficient to refund 100% of the aggregate purchase price of the Subscription Receipts to the holders thereof, Trees will be liable for and will be required to contribute such amounts as are necessary to satisfy any shortfall.

In connection with the Private Placement, Trees paid certain finders an aggregate cash fee of $45,000 (the “Finder’s Fee“) and issued warrants to purchase up to 175,000 Trees Shares (the “Finder’s Warrants“). The Finder’s Warrants shall be exercisable upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions for a period of two years from the date of completion of the transactions contemplated by the Amalgamation Agreement at an exercise price per share equal to the Subscription Price, as may be adjusted to account for the Consolidation, as applicable.

All Subscription Receipts issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a statutory hold period in accordance with Canadian securities laws. Following completion of the Amalgamation, the Resulting Issuer Shares received upon the exchange of Trees Shares underlying the Subscription Receipts will not be subject to a statutory hold period in Canada.

Upon completion of the Amalgamation, the proceeds of the Private Placement are anticipated to be used by the Resulting Issuer: (i) for legal and other costs related to the transactions contemplated by the Amalgamation Agreement; (ii) to open additional cannabis retail locations; and (iii) for general administrative expenses and working capital purposes.

As fintech continues to reshape the global financial landscape, today’s briefing highlights pivotal developments, strategic expansions, and innovative launches across the industry. This op-ed explores the latest advancements with commentary on their potential impacts and challenges.

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.

PayPal Resurrects Money Pooling Feature

In a bid to stay ahead of the competition, PayPal is reintroducing its Money Pooling feature, a popular tool that was discontinued in 2021. The feature allows users to pool funds collectively, catering to families, small businesses, and social groups.

Strategic Revival

This move reflects PayPal’s commitment to customer-centric innovation. By reinstating a feature beloved by its user base, the company seeks to reclaim market share lost to emerging competitors offering similar functionalities.

Broader Industry Impacts

Money pooling represents a broader trend in fintech—customized solutions that cater to niche needs. This reintroduction may inspire competitors like Venmo and CashApp to refine their collaborative payment offerings.

While this move strengthens PayPal’s ecosystem, its success will depend on seamless integration with existing services and robust fraud prevention mechanisms to avoid abuse of the feature.

Challenges on the Horizon

While Mexico offers immense opportunities, regulatory complexities and market competition from local players like Clip and Konfío pose significant challenges. Santander will need to blend its global expertise with local adaptability to succeed in this dynamic market.
