As part of the acquisition, Cary Strange, XTM’s Chief Revenue Officer will be appointed President of QRails.  Strange is an early investor in QRails and its former Chief Revenue Officer.  QRails will run as a wholly owned subsidiary of XTM with staff and operational integrations phased in over time as revenue potential has achieved momentum.  With a deep and experienced background in payments, and with first-hand knowledge of QRails’ clients, Strange has been assisting XTM with its evaluation and integration planning to be able to quickly scale QRails and XTM into the US and international markets.

“This is fortuitous for XTM,” said Marilyn Schaffer, CEO.  “QRails brings XTM into the US market with live fully compliant EWA clients, new opportunities and increase to XTM’s already growing revenue, something our investors have been eagerly anticipating. And, it gives us a first mover advantage with EWA in Canada and the US, which is already fully certified and compliant.”

“This is a big step in realizing the full potential of QRails and AnyDay,” said Strange. “QRails’ vertically-integrated earned wage access solution, along with the state-of-the-art processing and issuing platform, will be accelerated into the market with the strength of XTM’s team and successful track record. I look forward to leveraging XTM’s experience and resources to fully realize the cross border potential of both companies.”

XTM and the QRails Board aim to close the Share Purchase Agreement by May 31, 2023.  XTM will provide further details in respect to the Proposed Transaction in due course by way of press release. XTM will make available all information as required by applicable regulatory authorities and will provide, in a press release to be disseminated at a later date, the required disclosure. 

In connection with the Potential Acquisition, XTM and QRails have entered into a non-binding letter of intent dated April 2, 2023 (the "Letter of Intent"). The Letter of Intent provides that XTM and QRails will negotiate and enter into a definitive agreement in respect of the Proposed Transaction (the "Definitive Agreement") on or before May 31, 2023, or such later date as may be mutually agreed upon. The Proposed Transaction contemplates that the purchase price of US$3.5 million paid to shareholders of QRails be satisfied by the payment of $100,000 in cash and US$3.4 million in common shares of XTM, and a price reservation for common shares issued as consideration has been filed with the Canadian Securities Exchange at a price of $0.16 per common share. As part of the Proposed Transaction, XTM will also assume all of the debt of QRails. The Proposed Transaction is subject to, among other things, the negotiation and execution of the Definitive Agreement, XTM fulfilling all of the applicable regulatory and listing requirements, and each of the parties obtaining all necessary board, shareholder and regulatory approvals, and other standard closing conditions. 

In order to allow XTM and QRails the necessary time to enter into the Definitive Agreement, and to allow XTM to evaluate and investigate the Proposed Transaction, QRails has agreed that from the LOI Date until June 30, 2023, QRails and its shareholders will immediately suspend and cease any negotiations or other discussions or communications of any nature with any other party concerning the sale of QRails, or its shares or assets, in any manner.

The foregoing description and summary of the Proposed Transaction does not purport to be complete. XTM will provide further details in respect of the Proposed Transaction in due course by way of press release. XTM will make available all information as required by applicable regulatory authorities and will provide, in a press release to be disseminated at a later date, the required disclosure. 

XTM’s Q1 2023 Quarterly Financials and Y/E 2022 Financials are expected to be filed on or before June 30, 2023 in accordance with the OSC regulatory requirements.

Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, although not always, identified by words such as “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “schedule,” “forecast,” “budget,” “estimate,” “intend” or “believe” and similar expressions or their negative connotations, or that events or conditions “will,” “would,” “may,” “could,” “should” or “might” occur. All such forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this news release. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as there can be no assurance that the future circumstances, outcomes or results anticipated in or implied by such forward-looking statements will occur or that plans, intentions or expectations upon which the forward-looking statements are based will occur. 
While we have based these forward-looking statements on our expectations about future events as at the date that such statements were prepared, the statements are not a guarantee that such future events will occur and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors which could cause events or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors and assumptions include, among others, the effects of general economic conditions, changing foreign exchange rates and actions by government and regulatory authorities, the effects of COVID-19, both positive and negative, the future of the market for XTMprograms and misjudgments in the course of preparing forward-looking statements. In addition, there are known and unknown risk factors which could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Known risk factors include risks associated with the impact of general business and economic conditions; the risk that a closing condition to the Proposed Transaction is not satisfied or is not satisfied on a timely basis, including, without limitation, the parties’ ability to satisfy  closing conditions and receive necessary approvals; XTM’s ability to continue onboarding clients; risks related to global pandemics; influence of macroeconomic developments; business opportunities that become available to, or are pursued by XTM; reduced access to debt and equity capital; litigation; the volatility of the stock market; competition; future sales or issuances of debt or equity securities; use of proceeds; dividend policy and future payment of dividends; liquidity; and the market for XTM’s securities. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results notto be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
