Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - GreenBank Capital Inc. (CSE: GBC and OTCMKTS: GRNBF and FRA; 2TL) ("GreenBank or the Company") announces that it refutes the allegations made by the current directors of Minfocus Exploration Corp (TSXV: MFX) (“Minfocus”), in a press release dated February 14, 2018. 

Greenbank was advised that former Minfocus director Phil D’Mello resigned as a director on January 17, 2018 to take effect on January 25^th, 2018. Minfocus failed to make the required press release announcing the resignation of Mr. D’Mello, which prevented disclosure to Minfocus shareholders that 60% of their directors had resigned during January 2018. GreenBank continues to hold the opinion that the Minfocus directors do not have the corporate authority to enter into the Letter of Intent on behalf of Minfocus to acquire a property from Kapuskasing Gold Corp. (TSX-V: KAP) (“Kapuskasing”) and GreenBank intends to challenge these purported corporate actions.

GreenBank also notes that, in a further press release made this morning, the Minfocus directors have announced a further share issuance to themselves in a purported debt settlement, as well as the issuance of a significant number of stock options to themselves. GreenBank is of the opinion that these actions serve the interests of the Minfocus directors rather than the interests of Minfocus shareholders.

GreenBank will make representations to the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) requesting that the TSX-V refrain from considering any application for the issuance of shares or other securities, whether to Kapuskasing or shares for debt to the directors, until Minfocus shareholders have had an opportunity to elect new directors at a shareholders meeting. GreenBank is of the opinion that the proposed transaction with Kapuskasing and the issuance of shares to directors are designed to dilute the Minfocus major shareholders in an effort to perpetuate the employment of Kenneth de Graaf as CEO of Minfocus. 

GreenBank rejects the description made by Kenneth de Graaf of the sequence of events relating to discussions with GreenBank. Further, GreenBank states that it has complied with, and will continue to comply with, all required regulatory disclosures.
