New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - January 13, 2021) - GetSwift Technologies Limited (NEO: GSW) ("GetSwift" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that the scheme of arrangement between GetSwift Limited, an Australian public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange ("GSW") (ASX: GSW) and its shareholders under Part 5.1 of the Australian Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (the "Arrangement") has been implemented.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, all of the issued and outstanding fully paid ordinary shares of GSW (each a "GSW Share") were exchanged for common shares (each a "Common Share") in the capital of the Corporation based on an exchange ratio of seven GSW Shares for each Common Share (the "Exchange Ratio"), with any fractional entitlement a Common Share resulting from such exchange being rounded down to the nearest whole number of Common Shares, and GSW became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. In addition, in connection with the implementation of the Arrangement, the one preferred share in the capital of the Corporation, being the only security of the Corporation issued and outstanding prior to implementation of the Arrangement, was repurchased and cancelled by the Corporation.

In connection with the implementation of the Arrangement, the Common Shares have been listed and are posted for trading on the NEO Exchange Inc. (the "NEO") under the symbol "GSW" as of the open of trading on January 13, 2021. GSW intends to apply to ASX to be removed from the official list of the ASX with effect from the close of trading on ASX on January 15, 2021. The Arrangement is further described in the Corporation's final prospectus dated January 4, 2021 (the "Prospectus") filed with the securities regulatory authorities in the provinces of British Columbia and Ontario.

The Prospectus qualifies the distribution for resale under applicable securities laws and trading on NEO of (i) the 30,764,917 Common Shares, all issued for no additional consideration in exchange for 215,354,419 GSW Shares pursuant to the Arrangement, and (ii) up to 1,388,167 Common Shares ("Option Shares"), all issuable upon the due exercise of certain legacy options of GSW (the "GSW Options"). An aggregate of 47,458 Common Shares issued under the Arrangement, representing 0.002% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, attributable to Ineligible Foreign Shareholders (as defined in the Prospectus) were issued to the Canaccord Genuity Corp. ("Canaccord"), as Sale Agent, pursuant to an agreement between Canaccord and the Corporation, under which Canaccord will sell such Common Shares on NEO and account to each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder for the proportion of the net proceeds from the sale of such Common Shares. The Prospectus contains important information relating to the Corporation, GSW and its business, and the securities of the Corporation. A copy of the Prospectus can be obtained under the Corporation's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Dentons acted as Canadian counsel to the Corporation and GSW in connection with the Arrangement and listing on NEO, Canaccord Genuity Corp. acted as financial adviser to the Corporation and GSW in connection with the listing on NEO, and Jones Day LLP acted as Australian counsel to GSW in connection with the Arrangement.
