VSBLTY ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE OFFERING

PHILADELPHIA, PA., July 19, 2019 – VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE: VSBY) (Frankfurt: 5VS) (OTCBB:VSBGF) (“VSBLTY” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed a non-brokered private placement offering of convertible debenture (“Debentures”) for gross proceeds of CAD $745,500 (the “Offering”).

The Debentures bear interest at 10% per annum on an accrual basis, calculated and payable semi-annually, maturing on July 18, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”) that is 24 months from the date of issuance on July 18, 2019 (the “Closing Date”).

The Debentures, together with any interest accrued but unpaid, may be convertible, in whole or in part, at any time before the Maturity Date, into units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) at $0.45 per Unit, if converted at any time before one year from the Closing Date, or otherwise convertible at $0.60 per Unit if converted after one year from the Closing Date but before the Maturity Date.

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Share”) and one-half of a Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will be exercisable into one Share (each a, “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.60 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date, subject to acceleration. The Company may exercise its warrant acceleration right, if on any ten consecutive trading days, beginning on the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date, the closing price of the Company’s Shares on the CSE is greater than $1.00 per Share. If the Company exercises its warrant acceleration right, the new expiry date of the Warrants will be the 30th day following the notice of such exercise.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used for acquisitions and general and corporate working capital purposes.

The Debentures are subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period, which expires on November 19, 2019.

Guy Lombardo, a director of the Company, and Jay Hutton, the CEO and a director of the Company, purchased Debentures in the principal amounts of $327,500 and $25,000, respectively, under the Offering. These purchases each constituted a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”).  These issuances to insiders are exempt from the formal valuation and the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the Debentures issued to or the consideration paid by such person did not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

In accordance with the terms of a merger agreement dated December 12, 2018 between the Company, VSBLTY Merger Co. and VSBLTY Inc., common shares in the capital of VSBLTY issued to former VSBLTY, Inc. shareholders and former holders of VSBLTY, Inc. debentures are subject to voluntary hold periods. The Company has received commitments from approximately 82% of such shareholders to extend the voluntary hold periods for a period of three months.

The Company is not proceeding with the unit offering it previously announced on May 8, 2019.
