Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 15, 2022) - Champion Gaming Group Inc. (TSXV: WAGR) ("Champion Gaming" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of up to an aggregate of $800,000 principal amount of secured convertible promissory notes (each a "Note") at a price of $1,000 per Note for gross proceeds of up to $800,000 Canadian dollars (the "Offering"). The maturity date (the "Maturity Date") of the Notes will be twenty-four (24) months from the closing date. The holders of the Notes will have the right, from time to time and at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount (but not any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) into common shares (each, a "Common Share") of the Company, at a conversion price of $0.20 per Common Share. The Notes will be secured by a general security agreement over assets of the Company and the proceeds of the Offering will be used for general working capital purposes.

Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes will accrue from the original date of issue of the Notes at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum until the Maturity Date. Interest will be payable quarterly, in cash or Common Shares at the option of the Company at the then current market price of the Common Shares, subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The holders of the Notes will also receive such number of Common Shares as a loan bonus in connection with the issuance of the Notes, such number of Common Shares will represent twenty percent (20%) of the principal amount of the Notes divided by the Market Price (as defined and determined in accordance with the policies of the TSXV). Furthermore, in the event that the Company elects to repay any principal amount of the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, the Company will pay an early repayment penalty in an amount equal to the amount of interest that would otherwise be payable up to the Maturity Date in cash or Common shares at the option of the Company at the then current market price of the Common Shares, subject to the policies of the TSXV.

Closing of the Offering is subject to receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including the approval of TSXV. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance and the resale rules of applicable securities legislation.
