Mithrandir Capital Corp. Announces Update to Qualifying Transaction with PopReach Incorporated

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 17, 2020) - Mithrandir Capital Corp. (TSXV: GMER.P) ("Mithrandir" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce an update to its press release dated November 12, 2019, regarding its previously announced qualifying transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") consisting of the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities in the capital of PopReach Incorporated ("PopReach") by way of three-cornered amalgamation pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation ("Subco") will amalgamate with PopReach. Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Corporation will also change its name to "PopReach Corporation" (the "Resulting Issuer").

The Corporation has substantially settled with PopReach a definitive acquisition agreement ("Definitive Agreement") with PopReach and Subco, which includes and sets out the terms and conditions pursuant to which the parties will complete the Qualifying Transaction, on terms and conditions consistent as originally announced by the Corporation and as updated and supplemented in this press release. The parties intend to execute and deliver the Definitive Agreement prior to the filing of the Filing Statement, expected during the last week of June, 2020.

Pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction and the Definitive Agreement, the Corporation will file articles of amendment to consolidate its outstanding share capital (the "Consolidation") on the basis of 1 post-Consolidation common share for every 8 pre-Consolidation common shares, and each PopReach shareholder will receive 7.62 post-Consolidation common shares (the "Common Shares") for each PopReach common share (the "PopReach Shares") held by them, for a total issuance from treasury of 48,233,937 Common Shares. In addition, each convertible, exchangeable, or exercisable security of PopReach will be exchanged for a convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security, as applicable, of the Corporation on substantially the same economic terms and conditions as the original convertible, exchangeable, or exercisable security of PopReach (with their exercise prices being divided by 7.62) resulting in the issuance of 7,744,273 warrants in respect of outstanding PopReach warrants, 5,808,314 options in respect of outstanding PopReach options and 127,358 broker warrants in respect of outstanding PopReach broker warrants.

Following completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Corporation will have 51,983,937 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Assuming the conversion of all outstanding options, warrants and broker warrants, 66,288,882 Common Shares will be outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

As a result of the Qualifying Transaction and the reverse takeover of the Corporation by shareholders of PopReach, the current auditors of PopReach, MNP LLP, will be appointed the auditor of the Corporation and McGovern Hurley LLP will cease to be the auditor of the Corporation. To the Corporation's knowledge, there were no "reportable events" as defined in section 4.11 of National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations.

Independent of the Qualifying Transaction, PopReach has also completed a private placement of $2,536,870 in aggregate principal amount of 8% convertible debentures (the "2020 Convertible Debentures"), convertible at a price equal to a 20% discount to the deemed issuance price of the Common Shares, into (a) one PopReach Share and (b) one common share purchase warrant at an exercise price 50% greater than the conversion price for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Qualifying Transaction. In conjunction with the closing of the Qualifying Transaction, all such debentures, together with $950,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8% convertible debentures of PopReach previously issued, in each case together with all accrued and unpaid interest through to June 30, 2020, will be exchanged for an aggregate 7,744,273 Common Shares and 7,744,273 warrants.
