Link Global Announces $640,000 Non-Brokered Private Placement Units Offering
THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 3, 2021 / LINK GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES INC. (CSE:LNK)(FRA:LGT)(OTC PINK:LGLOF) ("LINK" or the "Company"), an innovative power and infrastructure solutions provider for Bitcoin mining and data hosting operations, is pleased to provide an update on its planned bitcoin mining operations. As previously announced on January 4, 2021, the Company is acquiring 2,600 bitcoin miners for self-mining and royalty earnings. This is "phase one" of that program.
A private, arms-length company has delivered over 50 Petahash or roughly .35 BTC/day at today's difficulty, through a combination of ASICs machines to begin mining at the Link's facilities in Alberta. The agreement includes a base rate charge for power and a profit share on the bitcoins (BTC) mined. President and CEO Stephen Jenkins comments, "this agreement allows LINK to generate revenue in two ways: a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and a royalty agreement. Our arrangement is attractive for several reasons: the immediacy of revenue with BTC earnings and the stable income from the PPA. While most companies tie up large amounts of capital for up to seven months to acquire more machines, LINK's approach is different by acquiring a blend of new and used machines, allowing immediate cash flow and tieing up less capital.
Under the agreement, LINK will manage the machines, and the private company will send a percentage of the net profit to LINK on a bi-weekly basis. This agreement takes effect on February 21st, 2021.
$640,000 Units Offering Private Placement
Link Global is also pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of approximately 1,066,667 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.60 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $640,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (each, a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share at a price of $0.90 per share for a period of nineteen (19) months following the closing of the Offering.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for:
- The commissioning of new 10-Megawatt (MW) power sites in Alberta - Link is generating power from dormant and stranded natural gas assets and supplying this power via fixed-price contract to its clients, which include Bitcoin miners and data hosting operations.
- Marketing and general working capital.
All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day after the closing of the Offering. Completion of the Offering is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Exchange"). Any participation by insiders in the Offering will constitute a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") but is expected to be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101. The Company may pay finder's fees in connection with the Offering in accordance with applicable laws.
The Company also announces that in connection with the closing of the financing (the "Financing") previously announced on January 7, 2021, it has paid additional finder's fees of $1,050 and issued 3,000 finder's warrants, each of which entitles the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.50 for 18 months from the date of closing of the Financing. All securities issued in the Financing are subject to a four-month hold period expiring May 8, 2021.
None of the securities sold in connection with the Offering and the Financing will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no such securities may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Forward-looking statements consist of statements that are not purely historical and include any statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "forecast", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or "believes", or variations (including negative variations) of such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "would", "could", "should" or "might" occur.

All such forward-looking statements are based on factors or assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including assumptions based on historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments. Since forward-looking statements relate to future events and conditions, by their very nature they require making assumptions and involve inherent risks and uncertainties.

In the case of the Company, these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors include, without limitation: that actual results from the new agreement may differ materially from the parties' expectations; that the Offering might not close on the terms announced or at all; that the actual uses of proceeds of the Offering may differ from those set out in this news release; those set out in the Company's most recent MD&A, fluctuations in the price of electricity, fluctuations in the price of digital currencies/Bitcoin, the future potential halving of Bitcoin, increases in the network difficulty rate and price of digital currencies/Bitcoin, negative changes in the level of digital currency/Bitcoin rewards per block, the securing of economic rates for the purchase of power, the opportunities for acquiring digital currency mining hardware, unanticipated changes in laws, regulations or other industry standards affecting the business of the Company, reliance on key management personnel, the Company's ability to implement its business plan, litigation risk, stock price volatility, the effects of general economic and other factors beyond the control of the Company, and other matters that may occur in the future. Given these risks, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date hereof. Other than as specifically required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, subsequent or otherwise.
