By: Newsfile

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 30, 2021) - SoLVBL Solutions Inc. (CSE: SOLV) ("SoLVBL" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed a second private placement (the "Private Placement") of units of the Company (the "Units"), pursuant to which the Company issued 13,333,333 Units at a price of $0.075 per Unit (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000. The Private Placement was led by Research Capital Corporation as sole agent and sole bookrunner (the "Agent"). Together with the closing of the Private Placement and the closing of the upsized private placement on July 23, 2021 for gross proceeds of $3,000,000, the Company has raised aggregate gross proceeds of $4,000,000.

Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.12 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

"On behalf of SoLVBL, we are excited to be closing on a second private placement indicating strong investor demand and support for SoLVBL's product solution targeting the cybersecurity market. Q by SoLVBL combats digital fraud with proprietary data authentication for enhanced data security and privacy. The total gross proceeds of $4 million from the first and second private placement will accelerate the implementation of Q by SoLVBL," stated Ray Pomroy, CEO of SoLVBL.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised under the Private Placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a four-month and one day hold period under applicable securities laws in Canada.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Agent received an aggregate cash fee of $61,280 and an aggregate of 817,067 non-transferable compensation options (the "Compensation Options"). Each Compensation Option entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Unit at an exercise price equal to the Offering Price for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Private Placement.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.

Alan Rootenberg, a current director of the Company, subscribed for 800,000 Units such that he now holds a total of 1,800,000 Common Shares which represent 1.18% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares after giving effect to the Private Placement.

Related Party Participation in the Private Placement

An insider of the Company subscribed for 800,000 Units pursuant to the Private Placement. Participation of insiders of the Company in the Private Placement is deemed to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").

Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company after reasonable inquiry, a related party, has knowledge of any material information concerning the Company or its securities that has not been generally disclosed.

The Private Placement is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsections 5.5(c) and 5.7(1)(b)) as the distribution of securities was for cash consideration and neither the fair market value of the Units distributed to, nor the consideration received from, interested parties exceeded $2,500,000.

The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement because the details of the insider participation were not settled until closer to the closing of the Private Placement and the Company wished to close as soon as practicable for business reasons.
