Reading Time: 4 minutes

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – February 17, 2021) – Graph Blockchain Inc. (CSE: GBLC) (the Company or Graphis pleased to announce that further to its press release dated January 26, 2021 that it has closed its acquisition of 100% of Babbage Mining Corp.’s (“Babbage“) issued and outstanding securities (the “Transaction“), pursuant to terms of the share exchange agreement entered into between the Company, Babbage, and the shareholders of Babbage (the “Babbage Shareholders“) effective January 25, 2021 (the “Definitive Agreement“). Babbage is an arm’s length private corporation incorporated under the laws of Ontario.

Terms of the Transaction

Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, the Company issued 60,000,000 units of the Company (“Payment Units“) comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Common Share“) and one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant“) to the Babbage Shareholders on a pro rata basis at a deemed price of $0.08 per Payment Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $4,800,000. Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at a price of $0.10 per Common Share for a period of up to eighteen (18) months, subject to the Company’s exercise of an Acceleration Right (as defined herein). The Warrants are subject to an acceleration clause whereby if the Common Share price on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE“) is equal to or greater than $0.15 per Common Share for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days, the Company may, by notice to the holders of the Warrants, reduce the remaining exercise period applicable to the Warrants to no less than 30 days from the date of such notice (the “Acceleration Right“).

No finder’s fee was payable in connection with the Transaction.

“The acquisition of Babbage will help position Graph in the evolving and rapidly expanding cryptocurrency space. According to website Coindesk.com, Bitcoin as a cryptocurrency has a market cap of CDN $1.17 trillion, has increased from a price of around $437 in February 2016 to over $49,400 today, a 11,746% increase. Graph now has a platform in Altcoin for employing blockchain transactions through crypto mining, related payments on blockchain, and a variety of subsequent support services. We look forward to growing Graph organically and through other viable acquisitions in the crypto space,” said Andrew Ryu, CEO of Graph, with respect to the closing of the Transaction.

Operations of Babbage Upon Completion of the Transaction

Babbage intends to develop a best-in-class cryptocurrency miner with the objective to generate revenue through Proof of Stake (“POS”) mining for tokens, with the ultimate aim of giving its shareholders exposure to the most disruptive cryptocurrencies with the potential upside in the market such as Layer 2 Scaling, which improve transaction speed and transaction throughput, and Decentralized Finance (“DeFi”) protocols. DeFi is the movement that leverages decentralized networks to transform old financial products into trustless and transparent protocols that run without intermediaries, and instead utilizes smart contracts on blockchains.

Babbage also intends to invest its capital directly into cryptocurrency tokens where the network is instructed to use it towards POS mining. This process returns the staker with additional tokens while providing exposure to the potential price appreciation of the cryptocurrency being mined.

With blockchain and its decentralized ledger, Graph recognizes how alternative cryptocurrency platforms offer disruptive potential that can structure data in everything from Supply Chain Management to DeFi, enabling the way in which businesses operate and transact with each other. Babbage will be using POS mining to earn returns and gain exposure to the cryptocurrencies with the greatest potential return on investment.

About Babbage Mining Corp.

Babbage is an early stage company, which will be focusing on Altcoins, alternative cryptocurrencies to Bitcoin. By mining Altcoins through Proof of Work and Proof of Stake, Babbage is able to give its investors exposure to the vast emerging market of cryptocurrencies with the significant technological disruption and potential gains that Altcoins represent.
