PRESS RELEASE
EXHIBIT 99.1
Marijuana Company of America Inc. Acquires Cultivation and
Distribution Company Expanding Footprint in California's Growing Cannabis Market
LOS ANGELES, CA / October 14, 2021/ Marijuana Company of America, Inc. (OTC: MCOA)
(the "Company"), a diversified company with operations and investments throughout the cannabis industry, today announced that
it has completed what it believes to be the most significant acquisition in MCOA's history with the acquisition of VBF Brands, Inc.
("VBF"). VBF is a fully licensed marijuana cultivator and distributor based in Salinas, California and was previously a wholly
owned subsidiary of Sunset Island Group, Inc. (OTC: SIGO).
MCOA expects that the acquired subsidiary should be significantly accretive to
the Company's topline revenue and EBITDA expectations for 2022. This newly acquired wholly owned subsidiary will immediately work towards
increasing production at its current Salinas facility that also offers exponential growth potential with other nearby properties that
MCOA has an option to participate in as part of the acquisition.
California continues to be the world's largest legal cannabis market, and
offers tremendous market potential for MCOA with this acquisition that includes cannabis nursery, cannabis manufacturing/distribution
and cultivation licenses.
Jesus Quintero, CEO of Marijuana Company of America, Inc. stated, "The acquisition
of VBF Brands, Inc. perfectly encapsulates MCOA's strategy to expand our business by organic growth and acquisitions of synergistic
and often undercapitalized distressed assets existing today in the Cannabis industry. We are confident that by providing this entity with
capital and operational depth to the already impressive operations will increase the capacity, and greatly bolster our position in the
California Cannabis market".
VBF brands, Inc. has been a cultivator and distributor in the Salinas, California
for the past two years and utilizes its own growing systems to produce desirable cannabis clones that are proprietary certified clean
and designed to assist growers by reducing uncertainty and enhancing the likelihood of a successful cultivation harvest. Cannabis clones
carry the exact same genetic potential as their mother plant and have similar cannabinoid and terpene profiles when grown properly. When
clones are selected from healthy, high-quality mother plants, they also inherit their vigor, and natural resistance to mold, mildew, and
pests.
Quintero added, "We are especially intrigued with this acquisition because
of VBF's reputation for high quality clones and its unique
use of its growing space. The Company
employs
a multi-tiered vertical growing system, thereby maximizing the square footage of its
Salinas, California facility. Few growers offer the efficiency of VBF Brands, Inc., which provides greater efficiency and
sustainable
cultivation techniques to provide growers with access to locally grown, high-quality clones to grow cannabis flower. Clones are cultivated
in an expedient manner and sold for use to other cannabis flower growers that now don't have to wait six months to cultivate and
sell."
Given that VBF focuses on the nursery aspect of the Cannabis sector, will help
the Company yield revenue faster as the clones only take a few weeks to develop and are often presold to customers in large quantities.
The California market is experiencing a significant decline in the sale of mature cannabis flower, but an increase in demand and prices
for quality clones. It is expected that being a key player in this specialized cannabis nursery niche should help MCOA achieve substantial
revenue growth in 2022 and beyond.
About Marijuana Company of America, Inc.
Marijuana Company of America (OTC: MCOA) invests in the cannabis sector directly.
The Company's operations include C-Distro, one of the THC, Hemp & CBD cannabis industries fastest growing distribution companies,
and hempsmart™, a Premium CBD company. The company's core mission is to leverage its experience, and access to capital to identify
and invest in acquisitions with unique growth potential. The Company also owns a cannabis nursery cultivation facility in Salinas, California.

Regency Energy Partners, Alinda Capital Partners and GE Energy Financial
Services Announce Closing of Joint Venture
DALLAS, March 17, 2009 - Regency Energy Partners LP (Nasdaq: RGNC), Alinda Capital Partners LLC
("Alinda") and an affiliate of GE Energy Financial Services announced today the completed formation
and funding of a joint venture to finance and construct Regency's Haynesville Expansion Project, a
North Louisiana pipeline that will transport gas from the Haynesville Shale, one of the fastest
growing U.S. natural gas fields. Regency has already secured commitments from shippers for 84% of
the pipeline's capacity.
"We are pleased to close our joint venture and to continue to build the necessary infrastructure to
bring Haynesville gas to markets", said Byron Kelley, chairman, president and chief executive
officer of Regency. "By partnering with GE Energy Financial Services and Alinda, Regency has
improved our balance sheet, and we currently intend to maintain our existing quarterly 44.5 cent
per unit distribution during the construction of the project".
The initial 1.1 Bcf/d Haynesville Expansion Project will more than double Regency's existing
pipeline system in North Louisiana and is expected to be in-service by the end of 2009. Regency
will continue to develop and operate the system through this new joint venture.
Regency contributed to the joint venture its Regency Intrastate Gas System ("RIGS") in North
Louisiana, valued at $400 million, in exchange for a 38% general partnership interest in the joint
venture. An affiliate of GE Energy Financial Services and Alinda Capital Partners LLC, an
independent private investment firm specializing in infrastructure investments, contributed $126.5
million and $526.5 million in cash, respectively, to the joint venture in return for a 12% and a
50% general partnership interest, respectively. Regency also received a cash payment that was equal
to the total Haynesville Expansion Project capital expenditures paid through the closing date,
subject to certain adjustments.

This press release may contain forward-looking statements regarding Regency Energy Partners,
including projections, estimates, forecasts, plans and objectives. These statements are based on
management's current projections, estimates, forecasts, plans and objectives and are not guarantees
of future performance. In addition, these statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties
and other assumptions that are difficult to predict and may be beyond our control. These risks and
uncertainties include changes in laws and regulations impacting the gathering, processing,
transportation and contract compression businesses, the level of creditworthiness of the
Partnership's counterparties, the Partnership's ability to access the debt and equity markets, the
Partnership's use of derivative financial instruments to hedge commodity and interest rate risks,
the amount of collateral required to be posted from time to time in the Partnership's transactions,
changes in commodity prices, interest rates, demand for the Partnership's services, weather and
other natural phenomena, industry changes including the impact of consolidations and changes in
competition, the Partnership's ability to obtain required approvals for construction or
modernization of the Partnership's facilities and the timing of production from such facilities,
and the effect of accounting pronouncements issued periodically by accounting standard setting
boards. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those expressed in such
forward-looking information.
Specifically, the success of Regency's Haynesville Expansion Project is subject to the successful
exploration and development of the Haynesville Shale, a new and emerging natural gas play. The
results of producers' exploratory drilling in new or emerging plays, such as the Haynesville Shale,
are more uncertain than drilling results in areas that are developed and have established
production. Since the Haynesville Shale has limited
production history, past drilling results in this area will be of limited help in predicting future
drilling results in the area. To the extent that producers in the area are unable to execute their
exploratory drilling and development plans in this area, the return on Regency's investment from
this project may not be as attractive as originally anticipated.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking
statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than the
Partnership has described. The Partnership undertakes no obligation to update publicly or to revise
any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Hydrofarm Acquires Canada's Greenstar
Plant Products
Grotek and Gaia Green Brands Added to Expanding
Portfolio of Premium Plant Nutrients as Hydrofarm's Acquisition Run Continues
Fairless
Hills, Pa. (August 3, 2021)
- Hydrofarm Holdings Group, Inc. ("Hydrofarm" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:
HYFM), a leading distributor and manufacturer of hydroponics equipment and supplies for controlled environment agriculture ("CEA"),
today announced that it has signed a definitive agreement and closed on the acquisition of Canadian nutrient company, Greenstar Plant
Products, Inc. ("Greenstar"), manufacturer of the Grotek and Gaia Green brands. These brands join Hydrofarm's lineup
of high performance, proprietary branded products in the lighting, climate control, nutrients and growing media categories.
Hydrofarm
funded the purchase price of approximately $83 million U.S. dollars ($103,635,000 Canadian dollars) using a combination of cash and the
Company's existing credit facility, and under the terms of the transaction agreement, Greenstar will become a wholly owned indirect
subsidiary of Hydrofarm Holdings Group, Inc.
Greenstar
is the latest in a succession of plant nutrient manufacturers to be acquired by Hydrofarm in 2021. Last month, Hydrofarm acquired Oregon-based
organic hydroponic products manufacturer and supplier Aurora Innovations, Inc., Aurora International, Inc. in Canada, and Gotham Properties
LLC ("Aurora"). The acquisition continues Hydrofarm's strategic efforts to acquire manufacturers of branded products
in key CEA product categories, including the aforementioned Aurora, as well as nutrient brands HEAVY 16, House & Garden and Mad Farmer.
"With
a long relationship that has grown organically over the years, the addition of Greenstar to the Hydrofarm family feels like a natural
next step in our efforts to broaden our company's footprint and strengthen our product portfolio", said Bill Toler, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of Hydrofarm.
"We're
excited about the many opportunities becoming a part of Hydrofarm will create and to play a role in the company's growth,"
said Michael Nemirow, CEO of Greenstar Plant Products, Inc. "Over the years, we've established a great working relationship
based on a passion for the future of Controlled Environment Agriculture and the horticultural market overall, along with our shared commitment
to delivering quality products and service".
Hydrofarm
expects Greenstar to generate approximately $26 million U.S. dollars in net sales in 2021, representing significant growth from the prior
year. Hydrofarm has historically distributed Greenstar's Grotek and Gaia brands, representing approximately 50% of Greenstar's
total net sales. The transaction is expected to be accretive to Hydrofarm, as the Company will now pick-up Greenstar's manufacturing
profit margin profile, in addition to the portion of Greenstar sales that it did not previously represent, as a result, the Company expects
the acquisition will enhance the Company's adjusted EBITDA margin for the 2021 fiscal year. The transaction represents an acquisition
multiple of approximately 8x Greenstar's estimated 2021 Adjusted EBITDA, excluding synergies but including the net present value
of estimated tax benefits resulting from the transaction.
The Company
will discuss further details of this transaction and related financial information during its second quarter 2021 earnings conference
call, scheduled for August 12th, 2021.

Mountain
High Acquisitions Corp. Acquires Extraction Equipment Provider One Lab Co. with Five-Year Lease Agreement for Modular
Extraction Lab to serve the Washington Cannabis Industry
(DENVER,
Colo.) August 21, 2018 -
MOUNTAIN HIGH ACQUISITIONS CORP. (OTCQB: MYHI), announces it has closed on the acquisition
of One Lab Co., a Nevada-based company that provides extraction equipment to the cannabis industry. The acquisition brings with
it a five-year lease of its modular extraction lab to Workforce Labor Solutions, LLC, which provides turnkey labor and extraction
services to licensed cannabis producers in Washington state.
"The abundance of cannabis currently
being cultivated by licensed growers has created increased demand for access to extraction facilities", said MYHI CEO Alan
Smith. "We're meeting this growing need in the cannabis space, which stems from an increasing number of consumers
interested in cannabis, but who don't want to smoke it. As a result, demand for edibles and other end products is growing-but
to make these products, cannabis product makers require a variety of quality cannabis extractions. Thus, providing access to highly
efficient, state-of-the-art extraction equipment is part of our strategy to drive revenue and we intend to pursue this niche aggressively
in the coming year".
As a part of the acquisition of One
Lab Co., two individuals have joined the MYHI Board of Directors, Raymond Watt and Matt Walker. Raymond Watt is the co-founder
and General Partner of Simplexity Venture Studios, a strategic early-stage Investment firm based in San Diego. Mr. Watt
has successfully started and sold numerous technology companies and has a 20-year plus experience in in both Software Development
and Enterprise System Outsourcing. Matt Walker is the founder and CEO of Seaport Assets, Inc., a real estate acquisition
and asset management firm in Carlsbad, CA. Mr. Walker was previously the CEO and founder of Main Path, Inc., based in San
Diego. Mr. Walker successfully exited Main Path, after 10-years of consistent, year-over-year growth, when he sold the majority
of his position to a private equity group. Mr. Walker has consulted with dozens of small to mid-sized businesses over the past
15 years. Mr. Walker also served on the Board of Directors for Resource Nation, Inc., which went on to acquire Business.com in
partnership with JMI Equity.
"MYHI helps licensed cannabis
producers minimize business risk by providing access to state-of-the-art equipment without the need to outlay capital for critical
assets such as extraction equipment", said Walker, who will serve as General Manager at the Washington facility where the
equipment will be located.
According to Walker and the equipment
manufacturer, the MeP™ extraction technology to be utilized by One Lab Co. has redefined production throughput for
the cannabis extraction industry. With the ability to process 15 pounds per hour, it offers more material throughput than
any other hydrocarbon extractors on the market. It is also the most versatile machine on the market, capable of producing
many types of extractions including shatter, oil, wax, live resin and more. The equipment has been third party peer reviewed by
professional engineers and meets all regulatory requirements for safe and legal operation in AZ, CO, CA, HI, MA, MD, ME,
MI, MN, NV, OH, OR, PA, and WA. It also meets or exceeds all industry listed standards: ASME SECTION Viii, IFC, NFPA
58, 3-A Sanitary Standard, CLASS 1 DIVISION 1, NSF and UL21.
About MYHI

MYHI) is a holding company focused on the acquisition and development of businesses and other assets within the cannabis sector.

Wizzard Software Acquires Second Home Healthcare & Staffing Agency
PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 11, 2007--Wizzard Software (OTCBB: WIZD) announced today that they have completed the acquisition of Professional Nursing Personnel Pool (PNPP), a successful home healthcare and professional staffing agency located in Billings, Montana. PNPP's staff will work closely with Interim Healthcare of Wyoming, increasing staffing capabilities and client base to create the largest home healthcare agency in their geographic market.
For over 20 years, PNPP has been serving Billings and the surrounding communities providing a broad range of visiting nurse services to the elderly, wounded and sick, as well as employment opportunities for licensed healthcare professionals. Last year, PNPP achieved sales of slightly over $2 million.
"Interim take great pride in their employees and community, and this substantial expansion with our combined territories allows us to serve even more of the surrounding areas, providing the people of these communities with the strong, reputable services that both PNPP and Interim are known for", said Brenda Mosher, President of Interim of Wyoming. "We welcome the folks at PNPP to the team and are excited to strengthen our staff and build our business with the addition of their healthcare expertise and knowledge".
"We believe that this acquisition will be an excellent geographic fit with Interim Healthcare of Wyoming, which experienced over 20% increase in profitability in the first full year under Wizzard's ownership", said Chris Spencer, CEO for Wizzard Software. "Of equal importance is that PNPP will bring their expertise in the private pay and third-party markets to Interim of Wyoming, and Interim will bring their expertise in the Medicare and Medicaid fields to PNPP. We see this merger as a great win-win for both companies".
According to a report from CMS' National Health Statistics Group reported that U.S. health care spending will nearly double by 2016, reaching $4.1 trillion from $2.1 trillion in 2006, with the fastest-growing sector identified as home health care. Total growth of home health spending is expected to average 7.6 percent annually from 2007 through 2016, with the strongest growth coming from Medicaid. Approximately 7.6 million people in the US require some form of home health care, according to the National Association for Home Care.
Disclaimer: The binding, enforceable asset purchase agreement provides for Wizzard to issue stock and cash to PNPP shareholders in exchange for all assets of PNPP. After the close of this material asset acquisition, PNPP will become part of Interim Healthcare of Wyoming Inc. dba Professional Nursing Personnel Pool. Full terms of the deal will be discussed in a Current Report on Form 8-K that Wizzard will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Trinseo
Completes Acquisition of Arkema's PMMA Business
---
Close
of acquisition marks a major step in Trinseo's transformation to becoming an advanced specialty and sustainable solutions provider
BERWYN,
Pa. [May 3, 2021] --
Trinseo (NYSE: TSE), a global materials company and manufacturer of plastics, latex binders and synthetic rubber,
announced today the closing of the previously announced transaction to acquire Arkema's polymethyl methacrylates (PMMA) business.
PMMA is a transparent and rigid resin with a wide range of end uses that augments Trinseo's existing offerings across several end
markets including automotive, building and construction, medical and consumer electronics.
A
compelling strategic fit that will accelerate transformation

acquisition serves as a catalyst for helping Trinseo transform into a higher margin, less cyclical solutions provider. The transformative
nature of the transaction will accelerate investments in growth opportunities for Trinseo's Engineered Materials business globally;
the transaction is also expected to generate approximately $50 million of annual synergies. Additionally, the PMMA business is a strategic
fit in that, in combination with Trinseo's existing portfolio, it enhances Trinseo's ability to provide solutions to customers
in profitable markets. With future investments, there will be the opportunity to leverage Trinseo's global presence to provide
solutions to its existing customers in Asia Pacific where Trinseo has a significant presence.
"Today
is a special day. I am thrilled to welcome our new colleagues and customers to the Trinseo family, as we embark on this transformation
journey together", said Frank Bozich, Trinseo President and Chief Executive Officer. "This journey will bring us closer to
our customers; create a more sustainable, environmentally-friendly footprint; and shorten the cycles of innovation that accelerate the
process of bringing new, industry-leading solutions to market".
Laying
the foundation for an even brighter future
The
transaction will act as a trigger for an IT-systems upgrade that ultimately will result in harmonized business processes across regions
and business units that will lay the foundation for future growth.
Additional
facts about the acquisition include:
●
Trinseo
appoints Jean-Luc Béal as Senior Vice President, Engineered Materials and will welcome
him to the Trinseo Management Team.
●
For
Trinseo, the acquisition includes the addition of approximately 860 new employees from operations
in France, Denmark, Italy, the United States and Mexico, with additional team members from
around the globe supporting sales and marketing.
●
Trinseo
will add PMMA and MMA products and technologies via seven manufacturing plants and three
R&D locations in Europe and North America.
News
Release
Bozich
added: "Over the coming years, the integration will unlock many opportunities for advancement and will provide compelling career
paths and growth opportunities for all Trinseo employees".

Gray Matters' technology was purpose-built to solve a difficult global problem to help the mission of a complex government agency and we're confident our new capabilities will scale in the wider government and commercial marketplace. We start with several million dollars of booked 2022 revenue and a small but solid contract base with very desirable government customers and ample cash on our balance sheet." Mr. Benoit added, "Jeff Gerald and his team have accomplished much in a very short period of time. I'm looking forward to working with Jeff to build on his significant technical achievements and help propel the new company to something special".
Jeff Gerald, Gray Matters' CEO said, "Working with Jamie and the IAI team is the next logical step for Gray Matters. Our visions are totally aligned. Jamie's track record with government customers like ours combined with his proven ability to build organizations and raise capital to fund them will help us grow. His commitment to continue enabling our core customers' unique requirements will make this a seamless transition and will give us the ability to do more for them. We are ecstatic about this next chapter".

EXHIBIT 99.1
Exhibit
9 Meters Biopharma, a Rare, Orphan and Unmet Needs GI-Focused Company, is Created with the Transformative Merger Between Innovate Biopharmaceuticals and RDD Pharma
Completes concurrent financing of ~$22 million led by Orbimed Advisors, LLC
Lead program, a proprietary long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist, starting Phase 2 trial for Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS), an underserved, orphan condition
Continued Phase 3 trial of larazotide; first and only drug for celiac disease
Multiple inflection points with the start of a Phase 2 SBS trial in 2H 2020 and top-line results in 2021
Raleigh, NC, April 30, 2020 - Innovate Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: INNT), today announced the completion of its previously announced merger with privately-held RDD Pharma, Ltd. Following the completion of the merger, Innovate is changing its name to 9 Meters Biopharma, Inc. ("9 Meters" or the "Company") and will continue trading on NASDAQ with the ticker symbol NMTR, effective May 4, 2020.
In addition, the Company announced the signing of approximately $22 million in new financing, led by Orbimed Advisors, LLC, and the signing of the previously announced merger with Naia Rare Diseases, a company developing a proprietary long acting GLP-1 for the treatment of Short Bowel Syndrome. In the financing the Company will issue units consisting of preferred stock and warrants, at a price of $0.5894 per unit, on an as converted to common stock basis. The combined Company will be focused on developing urgently needed treatments for patients with rare, orphan diseases and unmet needs in GI. The combined Company will have two late-stage lead assets funded to their next key inflection points, which include the initiation of a Phase 2 trial in short bowel syndrome in 2H 2020 with top-line results expected in 2021, and the receipt of top-line results for an ongoing Phase 3 trial in celiac disease in 2021.
"9 Meters Biopharma plans to deliver meaningful science and treatments for patients and providers which will translate into multiple inflection points for investors. This includes a novel approach with the first and only long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist for the treatment of short bowel syndrome, and the first-ever drug in a Phase 3 trial for celiac disease", said John Temperato, President & Chief Executive Officer of 9 Meters.
Mark Pimentel, M.D. FRCPC, Director of the Gastrointestinal Motility Program and Laboratory and Executive Director of the Medically Associated Science and Technology (MAST) program at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center added, "People living with short bowel syndrome have unmet motility needs and this long-acting GLP-1 agonist is one of the only compounds in development to directly address these by potentially allowing for elimination of parenteral nutrition and an improvement in quality of life".
Benjamin Lebwohl, MD, MS, Louis and Gloria Flanzer Scholar at the Columbia University Medical Center and Director of Clinical Research at The Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University commented, "It has become abundantly clear that there has been a rising incidence of celiac disease and an increasing recognition of the difficulties of strict gluten avoidance with an impact on long-term outcomes in people with this condition, affecting health and quality of life. Though the gluten-free diet is effective, its challenges and limitations pose a significant unmet need in this population".

To reflect the share exchange, recapitalization and reverse stock split described in Note 2 below
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 2010 was based on the unaudited balance sheet of Silver Butte, Inc. ("the Company") and the audited balance sheet of Gulfmark Energy Group Inc. as of October 31, 2010 combined with pro forma adjustments to give effect to the merger as if it occurred on November 30, 2010 (Silver Butte) and October 31, 2010 (Gulfmark).
These unaudited pro forma financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes and do not purport to represent what the Company's financial position would have been if such transactions had occurred on the above mentioned dates. These statements were prepared based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The use of estimates is required and actual results could differ from the estimates used. The Company believes the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the acquisition.
NOTE 2 - Merger
On January 12, 2010 the Company acquired 100% of Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc. for 26,950,000 common shares (1,078,000,027 pre-split) and 11,000,000 preferred shares.
The share exchange will be carried out as follows:
(1) Issuance of 7,007,990 (280,319,588 pre-split) common shares to Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc.
(2) Approval of a 1:40 reverse split of the Company's common shares
(3) Approval to increase the authorized common and preferred stock to 1,100,000,000 and 50,000,000 respectively
(4) Issuance of 19,942,010 (797,680,439 pre-split) common shares, 11,000,000 Series A preferred shares, and an option to purchase 250,000 Series B preferred shares to
Gulfmark Energy Group, Inc
Series A Preferred Shares each have twenty votes per share. The preferred shares are convertible into common shares at the rate of twenty shares of common stock for every share of Series A Preferred Stock upon no less than 75 days advance notice to the Company.
Series B Preferred Shares are convertible into common shares at the rate of twenty common shares for each share of Series B Preferred Stock upon no less than 75 days advance notice to the Company. The Series B shares will have one vote per share.
The acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization and Gulfmark Energy Group Inc. is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. As a result of the share exchange Gulfmark Energy Group became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized.

PRESS RELEASE SOURCE: WPCS International Incorporated
WPCS Announces Acquisition of New Line of Business
EXTON, PA - (Marketwired - December 17, 2013)
WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), ("WPCS" or the "Company"), which specializes in design-build engineering services for communications infrastructure, today announced that it has entered into various agreements to acquire BTX Trader LLC (BTX), an early stage technology company currently engaged in the development of a proprietary trading platform for the emerging bitcoin industry. The BTX acquisition is expected to add a new line of business to the Company's existing operations.
To acquire BTX, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with certain investors in which WPCS sold 2,348 shares of a newly designated Series E Preferred Stock (the Preferred Stock) and warrants to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of its common stock (the Warrants), for 100% of the membership interests of BTX. Each share of Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock equal to the stated value (and all accrued but unpaid dividends) divided by the conversion price of $3.50 per share. The Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 12% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. The Warrants have an exercise price of $5.00 per share.
Neither the Preferred Stocks nor the Warrants are convertible or exercisable, respectively, until the Company obtains its stockholders' approval for (i) the increase in the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance to 75 million; and (ii) the issuance of all of the securities issuable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
Bitcoin is a digital or virtual currency that uses peer-to-peer technology to facilitate instant payments. Bitcoin is a type of alternative currency known as a cryptocurrency, which uses cryptography for security, making it difficult to counterfeit. Bitcoin issuance and transactions are carried out collectively by the network, with no central authority, and allows users to make secure, verified transfers. BTX has developed and is currently beta testing its trading system to offer bitcoin traders advanced charting, trading blotters, and trading integration across five of the major bitcoin exchanges, which will allow users to see liquidity, route orders, and identify arbitrage opportunities across all platforms, and to control trading risks with access to stop loss orders.
Sebastian Giordano, Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are very excited about bitcoin and the prospect offered by BTX to enter a very fast-growing market. We believe that the software platform being developed by BTX will support the opportunities to advance bitcoin as an asset class, currency, money transfer mechanism, and important alternative in the financial markets space. As one of the first publicly traded companies to make an early entrance into the bitcoin space, we believe this transaction is consistent with ongoing efforts to provide the Company with an opportunity to deliver improved shareholder value in the future".
