HyperBlock Completes Acquisition of CryptoGlobal and Will List on the Canadian Securities Exchange

HyperBlock Inc. (“HyperBlock”) announced today it has completed its acquisition of CryptoGlobal Corp. (“CryptoGlobal”) and will begin trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on July 11, 2018 under the ticker symbol: HYPR.

“Today’s news transforms HyperBlock into one of North America’s largest and most diversified crypto-asset enterprises. The new HyperBlock operates high-performance cryptocurrency datacenters across Canada and the USA, with more than 21,500 servers on 28.5MW, five complimentary product offerings — and an expanding R&D lab focused on Bitcoin adoption and usage,” explains HyperBlock CEO Sean Walsh.

According to Walsh, the successful acquisition of CryptoGlobal and conditional listing on the CSE “positions HyperBlock for both strategic acquisitions and accelerated organic growth — which will help the company thrive within the global cryptocurrency ecosystem — far beyond North American shores.”

Acquisition Arrangement Closing Details

HyperBlock has successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of CryptoGlobal Corp. whereby pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement which was completed today, HyperBlock Technologies Corp. (the predecessor corporation to HyperBlock Inc. (“HTC”) acquired all of the common shares of CryptoGlobal (“CryptoGlobal Shares”) and amalgamated to form HyperBlock Inc. (the “Arrangement”).

Under the terms of the Arrangement, holders of CryptoGlobal Shares received 0.4229 of a common share of HyperBlock in exchange for each CryptoGlobal Share held and holders of common shares of HTC (“HTC Shares”) received one HyperBlock Share in exchange for each HTC Share held.

In connection with the Arrangement, CryptoGlobal Shares were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange at the close of trading on Monday, July 9, 2018.
