(OTCQX: OTCM), and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FWB”) Deutsche Börse AG (FRA: 4WR).

The OTC Markets Group Inc. operates financial markets for over 10,000 U.S. and global securities. The OTCQX Best Market is the elite tier of OTC Markets, and lists only the most established and reputable investor-focused U.S. and international companies. The qualification process for OTCQX is stringent, and requires issuers to fulfill strenuous requirements with regards to financial and governance practices, and also demonstrate full compliance with applicable securities laws. Acceptance to the OTCQX tier marks an important step in the development of Facedrive’s investor relations program, and allows the company to increase visibility and reputation amongst U.S. investors. Trading on OTCQX will complement the company’s current multi-pronged US expansion plan.

“Approval to trade on the Frankfurt stock exchange and OTCQX in the US represent significant milestones in Facedrive’s business plan, which sees our operational expansion coincide with our investor relations program diversification,” said Sayan Navaratnam, Chairman and CEO of Facedrive. “By able to trade in these two venues, we have taken an important first step to directly engage with US and European investors, who will use our eco-friendly services as consumers, and also share in our financial success by investing in our company”.
