GreenBank Makes Further TSXV Submission to Prevent Huge Issuance of Minfocus Shares

Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - GreenBank Capital Inc. (CSE: GBC and OTCMKTS: GRNBF and FRA; 2TL) ("GreenBank or the Company") announces that it has made a further formal submission to the TSXV to in relation to the latest attempt of the directors of Minfocus Exploration Corp (TSXV:MFX) (“Minfocus”) to advance their scheme to perpetuate their directorships at the expense of the shareholders of Minfocus.

Incredibly, the Minfocus directors have now increased the amount of shares they intend to pay insider and affiliate Francis Manns (“Manns”) for Manns interest in the New Coral project, from 7,500,000 common shares to 50,260,000 common shares (pre proposed consolidation). In addition, the warrants have also been increased from 7,500,000 to 50,260,000. On a fully diluted basis this new proposal increases the Minfocus share capital from 76,920,000 shares to 177,440,000, an increase of 131% ! The transaction will result in the creation of a New Control Person which requires disinterested shareholder approval. Further, the intended New Coral issuance of shares to Mann is part of a series of transactions involving an acquisition and securities issuance by Minfocus that is likely to result in a Reverse Takeover, which also requires shareholder approval.

This proposed acquisition from Mann is not a commercial transaction. If Minfocus does not spend another $550,000 in exploration expenditures on the New Coral project by September 30, 2018 then Minfocus will have defaulted under the New Coral option agreement and the New Coral property would revert back to the option holders, with Minfocus only retaining their existing 20% interest. As Minfocus has no cash, it is unable to meet its option commitments, and will likely default. Therefore spending a deemed $394,5000 to acquire a further New Coral interest from Mann which almost immediately becomes worthless is irresponsible, not commercial, and may possibly be a breach of fiduciary duty. GreenBank believes that this transaction is just another part of the directors scheme to retain their positions by inappropriately issuing a huge amount of shares to Minfocus Advisory Board member Mann.

In addition, the Minfocus directors have proposed a private placement of 70,000,000 Units of a mixture of non-flow through and flow through shares and warrants at a price of $0.007857 and $0.00857 respectively (pre proposed consolidation). This alone is a 91% increase in issued share capital.

The Minfocus directors continue to make a series of irresponsible transactions that have no commercial basis, and infringe TSXV Policies. In Greenbanks’s view, it is clear that Minfocus’ directors are acting in concert with Mann to effect a change of control of Minfocus to their benefit and to the detriment of the present Minfocus shareholders. The combination of the intended issuance of shares for the purchase of the New Coral Interest from insider and affiliate Manns, together with the effects of the Anti-Dilution clause and proposed 1 for 7 share consolidation as described previously, will create a New Control Person, as defined under TSXV Policy. Accordingly, Greenbank has requested that the TSXV delay approval of these series of transactions until completion of the September 7, 2018 meeting of Minfocus shareholders, and/or require Minfocus disinterested shareholder approval. GreenBank has also requested that the TSXV should not permit any share issuances until the Minfocus shareholders have voted at the September 7, 2018 Minfocus shareholder meeting.

GreenBank is aware that the former CEO of Minfocus, Gerald Harper, has filed a Shareholders Requisition and nominated three new directors to replace all the current directors of Minfocus. GreenBank intends to support the slate of directors nominated by Gerald Harper, and GreenBank will vote for these nominees at the Minfocus shareholders meeting.
