Hashchain Technology Inc. Provides Update on Proposed Proposed Reverse Takeover Transaction with Digihost International, Inc.

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / June 7, 2019 – HashChain Technology Inc. (“HashChain” or the “Company”) (TSXV: KASH; OTCQB: HSSHF) provides an update with respect to its previously announced reverse takeover transaction (the “Proposed Transaction”) with Digihost International, Inc. (“Digihost”).

On March 28, 2019, the Company announced that it has entered into an agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) with shareholders of Digihost whereby the assets of HashChain and Digihost will be combined by way of a share exchange between HashChain and shareholders of Digihost, constituting a “reverse-takeover” of HashChain by Digihost under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the issuer resulting from the Proposed Transaction (the “Resulting Issuer”) will carry on the business previously carried on by HashChain. It is anticipated that upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will be listed as Tier 2 Technology Issuer under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV” or the “Exchange”).

The completion of the Proposed RTO is subject to a number of conditions precedent (as described in prior press releases of the Company), including approval of the Proposed Transaction by the Exchange and the shareholders of HashChain prior to August 31, 2019, failing which the Definitive Agreement will terminate unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties.

Review of the Proposed Transaction by the Exchange remains ongoing.

Trading Halt

The common shares of HashChain are currently halted from trading and are not expected to resume trading until the Exchange completes its review of the Proposed Transaction and a management information circular describing the Proposed Transaction is filed on SEDAR for consideration by HashChain’s shareholders.

The Proposed Transaction cannot close until the required shareholder approval is obtained and there can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.

Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the management information circular to be prepared in connection with the Proposed Transaction, any information released or received with respect to the Proposed Transaction may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of HashChain should be considered highly speculative.

The Exchange has in no way passed upon the merits of the Proposed Transaction and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press release.
