Good Gamer Business
Good Gamer is an Esports real money skill gaming operator with the ambition to become a leader in the skill gaming arena in Canada and the United States.
The Good Gamer tournament management platform, which was beta-launched on April 21, 2021 in Canada and the United States, allows game developers to enable real money social competition in their games and allow the game developers to host casual Esports tournaments for mobile players to win real money prizes (the “Tournament Management Platform”). Players will be able to fund their account with real money, which then gets credited with a corresponding amount into the player’s online app account for the game that they are entering in.
Good Gamer has assembled a management and support team with a proven track record of delivering profitable gaming businesses. The existing structure of the business allows the building of the Tournament Management Platform, a major long-term asset – particularly the front end which is entirely bespoke. The IP and the backbone technology to the Tournament Management Platform is primarily developed for Good Gamer under the direction of Chief Technology Officer, Keith Bussey in Montreal, Quebec.
Qualifying Transaction
Pursuant to the terms of an amalgamation agreement (the “Amalgamation Agreement”) among the Company, Good Gamer Corp.

Each holder of a Good Gamer common share received one (1) post-Consolidation common share of the Company (a “Resulting Issuer Share”) for each Good Gamer common share held. All currently outstanding convertible securities of Good Gamer, specifically Good Gamer warrants were exchanged or replaced with Resulting Issuer warrants based on a 1:1 ratio and on the same economic terms and conditions as previously issued.
A total of 30,414,088 Resulting Issuer Shares were issued to the Good Gamer Shareholders. After completion of the Transaction, the Good Gamer securityholders became securityholders of the Company.
In conjunction with Closing, the Company will pay a finder’s fee to Madale Investment Corp., an arm’s length party, of 1,000,000 Resulting Issuer Shares and 1,000,000 share purchase warrants (“Finder’s Warrants”).
