Unresponsive HBDIG Technologies GmbH and Director Erik Aaron Lara Riveros
Over the past 15 days, Management's repeated attempts to contact HBDIG Technologies GmbH and Director Erik A. Lara Riveros have proven unsuccessful. At the same time, Management has commenced exploring legal recourse. Still, management wishes to inform shareholders that the lack of response may have a perfectly rational explanation, primarily based on previous health matters. However, until such a formal response is received, Management must remain proactive by pursuing the best interests of shareholders, which may include enforcement of contractual terms through legal recourse.
Certified Letter Remitted 3rd July 2023 To HBDIG Technologies GmbH Austrian Headquarters
As a procedural precursor to possible legal action, the Company remitted a Certified Delivery Requisition Letter to HBDIG Technologies GmbH and Director Erik A. Lara Riveros on the 3rd of July, 2023, soliciting immediate contractual fulfillment. Namely, the appropriate remission of the contractually agreed $12,470,000 $CA to the Company or, in case of contractual retraction, the sum of the contractually agreed nonperformance penalty of 676,809 $CA.
Unanimous 7th of July Management Resolution Authorizes Exploration of Legal Recourse
On the 7th of July, 2023, Management unanimously approved the initiation of preliminary exploratory avenues of legal recourse in case HBDIG Technologies GmbH Director and Erik A. Lara Riveros fail to perform or reply to the Certified Requisition Letter Remitted on 3rd July 2023.
Formal Requisition Demands Payment of $12,470,000 $CA Investment Proceeds
In compliance with all preceding accords up to and including the signed share subscription agreement dated the 25th of April 2023, the Company has demanded the immediate remission of the contractually agreed $12,470,000 $CA.
Formal Requisition Demands Payment of 676,809 $CA Nonperformance Penalty
The Company reminds Shareholders that, per the January 6th, 2023, and April 19th, 2023 news releases and associated binding HBDIG Technologies GmbH MOU dated 5th January 2023, a sizeable financial penalty clause of 676,809 $CA remains in force should the investor, for any reason, fail to conclude the investment.
Formal 3rd July 2023 Certified Letter Revokes Investment Exclusivity
The Certified Letter submitted to HBDIG Technologies GmbH on 3rd July 2023 formally rescinds the 14th October 2022 and sequentially prolonged mutually agreed upon investment exclusivity. Therefore, on July 7th, 2023, Management approved immediately recommencing previously suspended negotiations with alternative investors.
New 30-Day Private Placement Extension
Further to the news release dated June 12th, 2023, regarding the term extension of the negotiated non-brokered private placement, as per the current news release, the principal of the strategic investor HBDIG Technologies GmbH, Erik A. Lara Riveros, has remained unresponsive for over 15 days. As such, in good faith, the Company has sought and received approval from TSX.V to extend the closing date of the proposed financing for up to 30 days ending on August 10th, 2023.
