Boardwalktech Closes Second Tranche of Non-Brokered Private Placement

-Company Also in Restructuring Negotiations with Secured Lender-

CUPERTINO, CA, April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - (TSXV:BWLK) – Boardwalktech Software Corp. ("Boardwalktech"), a leading digital ledger platform and enterprise software solutions company, is pleased to report that it has closed an additional tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units (each, a "Unit") at a price of C$0.65 per Unit, for gross proceeds of C$411,209 (the "Offering"). Coupled with the February 25, 2019 closing of the First Tranche, the Company has now closed on total proceeds of $1,064,988 from this financing. Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each whole warrant is exercisable at a price of C$1.10 per share for a period of 24 months following the closing and will be subject to accelerated expiration if the trading price of the common shares of the Company is greater than C$1.75 for 10 consecutive trading days. The Company has paid aggregate finder's fees of C$9,287.50 to finders who introduced purchasers under the Offering.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including strengthening its balance sheet and the expansion of the Company's sales and marketing initiatives. Joining prior involvement of senior management in the First Tranche, Dharmesh Dadbhawala, co-founder and Senior Vice President of Products, subscribed for an aggregate of 30,612 Units under the second tranche of the Offering for aggregate cash consideration of C$19,898. The participation of Mr. Dadbhawala in the Offering constitutes a related party transaction under Canadian Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"), but the transaction is otherwise exempt from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101.

The securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period in accordance with applicable securities legislation. The Offering is subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Boardwalktech Executes Favorable Limited Waiver and Temporary Forbearance Agreement with Lender

The Company also announces today that it has been granted a favorable limited waiver and forbearance from its existing lender, SQN Venture Income Fund, L.P. ("SQN"), as part of an ongoing negotiation to improve terms on the current loan. This agreement allows for five months of interest-only payments, for the January 1, 2019 to May 31, 2019 period, resulting in an expected cash flow improvement of $0.6 million over the first two quarters of the calendar year. This agreement will allow the Company and SQN to complete negotiation of new terms to the Company's existing loan agreement with SQN (entered into on June 15, 2018) designed to accelerate reduction of operating cash burn as the Company targets profitability by the end of this year. The Company and SQN are continuing to discuss mutually beneficial options that include further equity participation by SQN, a reduction in nominal interest rates, and operation performance incentives. The Company expects the amendment to its existing loan agreement to be finalized within the next 60 days.

Andrew T. Duncan, President of Boardwalktech states, "These positive developments in our financial position should not only strengthen our balance sheet, but also provide additional working capital to augment our progress towards profitability as we close new customer agreements and accelerate our growing pipeline. We appreciate the partnership with SQN Ventures and their continued support of our business strategy, as we deliver our leading enterprise digital ledger Blockchain technology to some of the largest companies in the world."
