Playgon Announces Closing of Non-Brokered Private Placement of Unsecured Convertible Debentures

By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 29, 2023) - Playgon Games Inc. (TSXV: DEAL) (OTC Pink: PLGNF) (FSE: 7CR) ("Playgon" or the "Company"), a propriety SaaS technology company delivering mobile live dealer technology to online gaming operators globally, is pleased to announce that, further to its press release on November 30, 2023, it has completed a non-brokered private placement of unsecured convertible debentures (the "Debentures") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of CAD$4,971,000 (the "Non-Brokered Offering"). The Debentures will mature on December 29, 2024 and each $1,000 principal amount of Debenture will bear simple interest at 10% per annum, calculated and paid quarterly in arrears. The Company may, at its sole discretion, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), elect to pay the accrued interest in cash or in common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price per share equal to the 25-day VWAP of the Common Shares on the TSXV (or such other stock exchange where the majority of trading volume occurs) immediately preceding the date interest is due, subject to such deemed issuance price being no less than the maximum allowable discount permitted by the TSXV. Holders of Debentures will also be entitled to convert the principal amount of the Debentures at any time on or prior to the maturity date into Common Shares at a price of $0.05 per Common Share, subject to standard adjustments. The Debentures will not include any forced acceleration or early redemption rights by the Company. Any net proceeds raised from the Non-Brokered Offering is intended to be used by the Company to fund ongoing sales and marketing efforts in core European jurisdictions, to enter new markets including Latin America and North America, ongoing development costs, launch new proprietary table game content, as well as for general working capital and corporate purposes.

A portion of the Non-Brokered Offering representing $4,746,000 or 95.5% of the total offering pursuant to the closing constitutes a "related party transaction" and is subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101") and TSXV Policy 5.9, notably as a result of an additional investment by a significant shareholder and "control person" of the Company, Ms. Kathleen Crook, as well as by certain directors of the Company. Each participation by insiders of the Company in the Non-Brokered Offering is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements pursuant to MI 61-101 as, at the time the transaction was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involves an interested party of the Company, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

The Debentures (including the underlying Common Shares) will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day following closing of the Non-Brokered Offering and the Non-Brokered Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSXV.

The securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act), except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of those laws. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, or for the account or benefit of U.S. persons (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act).

Proposed Shares for Debt

Playgon also announces that it intends to settle an aggregate of $532,250 of debt, representing interest payments owed to the holders of previously issued convertible unsecured debentures (the "Previous Debentures"), via the issuance of 9,645,000 Common Shares at a deemed issuance price of $0.05 per Common Share (calculated based on the applicable VWAP as contemplated under the Indenture (as defined below)). As previously disclosed, the Previous Debentures were issued by Playgon on January 19, 2023, March 24, 2023 and May 3, 2023 pursuant to a debenture indenture dated January 19, 2023 (as supplemented on May 3, 2023) (the "Indenture") among Playgon and Odyssey Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trustee"). Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, Playgon is authorized, at its discretion, to satisfy any portion of interest payments owed by way of the issuance of Common Shares by providing notice to the Trustee. The proposed shares for debt transaction is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the policies of the TSXV and the completion of the shares for debt transaction, as well as the issuance of the Common Shares, remains subject to the review and approval of the TSXV.
