Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 3, 2022) - Good2GoRTO Corp. (TSXV: GRTO.P) ("G2G" or the "Corporation") and FRX Polymers, Inc. ("FRX") are pleased to announce that further to the press release dated February 1, 2022, FRX Polymer (Canada) Inc. ("Finco"), a wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary of FRX, completed a concurrent brokered and non-brokered private placement of subscription receipts ("Subscription Receipts") and convertible debentures ("Convertible Debentures") for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately CAD$6.5 million (the "Offering"). The Offering was completed in connection with a going-public transaction for FRX (the "Proposed Transaction"), by way of an amalgamation and merger that will constitute G2G's "Qualifying Transaction" (the "Qualifying Transaction") under Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") pursuant to a business combination agreement dated November 2, 2021 as amended on February 1, 2022 between FRX, G2G, Finco and 13448061 Canada Inc. and G2G Merger Sub, Inc., both wholly-owned subsidiaries of G2G.

Finco completed the Offering comprised of: (i) the brokered sale of 5,899,000 Subscription Receipts (the "Brokered Offering"), at a price of CAD$1.00 per Subscription Receipt (the "Issue Price") through Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (the "Lead Agent"), Eight Capital and Haywood Securities Inc. (together with the Lead Agent, the "Agents") pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement between FRX, Finco and the Agents dated February 3, 2022 (the "Agency Agreement"); (ii) the non-brokered sale of 115,000 Subscription Receipts at the Issue Price; and (iii) the non-brokered sale of CAD$482,296 principal amount of Convertible Debentures.

The Subscription Receipts were created and issued pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement (the "Subscription Receipt Agreement") between Odyssey Trust Company, as subscription receipt agent (the "Subscription Receipt Agent"), FRX, Finco and the Lead Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Agents. Each Subscription Receipt will be automatically exchanged, for no additional consideration, into one unit of Finco (a "Unit"), on the satisfaction of the certain escrow release conditions set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement (the "Escrow Release Conditions") at or before 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date that is 120 days after the closing date of the Offering, which may be further extended, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lead Agent, by a period of 30 days (the "Escrow Release Deadline"). Each Unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of Finco (a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of CAD$1.30 at any time prior to the second anniversary from the date of issuance.

The Convertible Debentures shall be automatically converted into Common Shares at the Issue Price on the closing of the Proposed Transaction.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agency Agreement, in consideration for their services in connection with the Brokered Offering, the Agents received (A) a cash commission equal to: (i) 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Brokered Offering excluding proceeds from subscribers on a President's List plus (ii) 3% of the gross proceeds of the Brokered Offering from subscribers on a President's List (the "Agents' Commission"), and (B) such number of agents' warrants (the "Agents' Warrants") as is equal to: (i) 7.0% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts issued under the Brokered Offering excluding Subscription Receipts issued to President's List subscribers and (ii) 3.0% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts issued under the Brokered Offering to President's List subscribers. Each Agents' Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at an exercise price equal to the Issue Price for a period of 24 months following satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions. In additional, Finco paid the Lead Agent a corporate finance fee by way of a cash payment of CAD$17,500 (plus tax) and the issuance of 17,500 Agents' Warrants. In addition, Finco paid an arm's length finder a finder's fee consisting of a cash fee of CAD$9,040 and warrants to purchase 9,040 Common Shares.

On closing of the Offering, the gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts less 50% of the Agents' Commission, as well as the expenses of the Agents incurred in connection with the Brokered Offering (the "Escrowed Proceeds") were delivered to and are held by the Subscription Receipt Agent and have been invested pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement (the "Escrowed Proceeds, together with all interest and other income earned thereon, are referred to herein as the "Escrowed Funds"). The remaining 50% of the Agents' Commission will be released from escrow and delivered to the Agents from the Escrowed Funds and the balance of the Escrowed Funds will be released from escrow to Finco upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions prior to the Escrow Release Deadline. In the event that (i) the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied on or before the Escrow Release Deadline, or (ii) prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, FRX, Finco and/or G2G publicly announces that it does not intend to, or cannot, satisfy any one or more of the Escrow Release Conditions, or that the Definitive Agreement is terminated, holders of the Subscription Receipts shall be entitled to receive from the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall pay to each holder of Subscription Receipts an amount equal to the aggregate Issue Price of the Subscription Receipts held by them plus their pro rata share of any interest earned thereon, net of any applicable withholding tax in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement, and all of the Subscription Receipts shall be cancelled. If the amount of the Escrowed Funds, including all interest thereon, would not be sufficient to refund the aggregate Issue Price, then pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, FRX and Finco will be required to deposit an additional amount, sufficient to satisfy the shortfall, with the Subscription Receipt Agent prior to the time at which the payment is required.

Completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of regulatory approval, including the approval of the TSXV, certain standard closing conditions, including there being no material adverse change in the business of G2G or FRX prior to completion of the Proposed Transaction.

Trading in the common shares of G2G is currently halted at the request of G2G in accordance with TSXV policies, and will remain halted until completion of the Proposed Transaction. G2G intends to apply to the TSXV for reinstatement of trading of the Resulting Issuer Shares when permitted pursuant to TSXV policies.
