Fintechwerx Announces Completion of Debt Settlement



FintechWerx International Software Services Inc.

VANCOUVER – TheNewswire - October 3, 2024 – Fintechwerx International Software Services Inc. (CSE: WERX) (“FintechWerx” or the “Company”) announces, further to its news release of September 24, 2024, that it has issued an aggregate of 500,000 common shares (each, a “Common Share”) in the capital of the Company at a deemed price of $0.05 per Common Share to certain creditors in settlement of an aggregate of $25,000 of indebtedness (the “Debt Settlements”).

All securities proposed to be issued in connection with the Debt Settlements are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance.

The Debt is comprised of $15,000 owed to companies wholly-owned by Francisco Kent Carasquero, the Company’s Executive Chairman and a Director, and George Hofsink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a Director, and $10,000 owed to Nafees Kahn, the President and a Director of the Company (together, the “Related Parties”). Accordingly, each of the Debt Settlements constitute a “related party transaction”, as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Transaction is exempt from the valuation requirement of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemptions contained in section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 as the Common Shares are not listed on a specified market and from the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in that the fair market value of the Debt Settlements will not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the anticipated closing date as the terms of the Debt Settlements were not finalized until immediately prior to the execution of the respective debt settlement agreements, and the Company wished to close the Debt Settlements on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
