Hypercharge Networks Corp. Announces Acquisition of CoSource

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 22, 2022) – Hypercharge Networks Corp. (the “Company” or “Hypercharge“) is pleased to announce it has entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Agreement“) with CoSource Information Technology Services Inc. (“CoSource“), a full-service digital agency specializing in digital innovation, marketing, and software product development (the “Acquisition“).

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of CoSource in exchange for: (i) 3,800,000 common shares of the Company (the “Consideration Shares“) and (ii) 1,500,000 performance warrants (the “Performance Warrants“), where each Performance Warrant will be exercisable into one common share of the Company (each, a “Common Share“) at a price of $0.02 per share upon the Company’s achievement of certain revenue-based milestones.

The Consideration Shares will be subject to voluntary resale restrictions, where 10% of the Consideration Shares will be released on the date the Common Shares are listed on a Canadian securities exchange, with the balance of the Consideration Shares being released in six (6) equal 15% installments every six (6) months thereafter.

Liam Firus, Director commented: “The completion of this acquisition further enables Hypercharge to innovate and advance our network and technologies in an effort to create a seamless and integrated experience for our customers.”

Option Grant

The Company also announces that it has issued 50,000 stock options to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer at an exercise price of $0.40 for a three-year term (the “Option Grant“).

Related Party Transactions

As part of the Acquisition, the Company will issue 2,090,000 Consideration Shares and 1,500,000 Performance Warrants to the Company’s director and CEO, David Bibby, who is a shareholder of Cosource and a vendor in the Acquisition. The Acquisition and the Option Grant therefore constitute “related party transactions” under Multilateral Instrument 61-10 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101, specifically: (i) the valuation requirement of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in Section 5.5(b), as the Common Shares are not listed on a market specified in MI 61-101, and (ii) the minority shareholder approval requirement of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61- 101, as the fair market value of the Common Shares issued to insiders in connection with the Acquisition and the Option Grant, respectively, does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).
