SOL GLOBAL ANNOUNCES BINDING COMMITMENT FOR C$10 MILLION DEBENTURE PRIVATE PLACEMENT FROM STRATEGIC INVESTOR

70% OF NET PROCEEDS WILL BE USED FOR ADDITIONAL SOLANA PURCHASES

SOL Global Investments Corp. (CSE: SOL) (FSE: 9SB) (“SOL Global” or the “Company”), one of the first publicly traded companies focused on institutional Solana investments, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter of intent on January 22, 2025 (the “LOI”) for the sale of an unsecured convertible debenture of SOL Global (the “Convertible Debentures”) with a principal amount of C$10,000,000 (the “Offering”).

The Convertible Debenture will be convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $0.50 per unit, such that each unit shall include one common share of the Company (the “Common Shares”) and one-half warrant whereby a full warrant is exercisable for an additional Common Share for a period of 12 months at an exercise price of $0.65.

The Debenture shall be funded in advances such that $2 million will be advanced on closing and four advances of an additional $2 million each shall be advanced every 60 days following the closing. The holder of the Debenture and SOL Global may mutually agree to accelerate the date of one or more advances.

The holder of the Debenture shall be entitled to a 2.5% set-up fee of $250,000, to be settled by the reduction of the amount payable under the initial advance. The Debenture will mature 24 months from the date of issue and shall be subject to a 10% interest rate, payable in cash at the time of each advance and at maturity.

The LOI is a binding commitment of the purchaser and the transaction is expected to close on or before January 30, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), subject to the entering into a definitive subscription agreement and Debenture, and certain customary conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals, and is subject to the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).

Use of Proceeds

Strategic Focus

This financing is aligned with SOL Global’s strategy to expand its digital asset portfolio and capitalize on emerging opportunities in the blockchain and cryptocurrency sectors. By allocating a significant portion of the proceeds to Solana tokens, the Company is reaffirming its belief in the potential of decentralized ecosystems.
