FA Fountain Asset Corp

Fountain Asset Corp. (TSXV:FA) (“Fountain” or the “Company”) would like to announce further to Fountain’s news release of October 13, 2020 pursuant to which the Company announced the settlement of $1,505,000 of debt through the issuance of subordinate voting shares of the Company (the “Original Debt Settlement”), or 3,010,000 subordinate voting shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at a deemed price of $0.50 per Share, to certain creditors of the Company, including certain of its officers and consultants (the “Creditors”). The Original Debt Settlement was subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, and in working with the Exchange, the Company and the Creditors have revised the Original Debt Settlement, which has been conditionally approved by the Exchange.

Today, the Company settled $1,435,000 of debt through the issuance of 2,870,000 Shares (the “Debt Settlement”). The change from the Original Debt Settlement is simply a reduction in the amount of debt settled with Andrew Parks, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Parks settled $30,000 of debt and was therefore issued 60,000 Shares.

As certain insiders participated in the Debt Settlement, it is considered to be a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transaction (“MI 61-101”). All of the independent directors of the Company, acting in good faith, considered the transactions and determined that the fair market value of the securities being issued to the insiders and the consideration being paid is reasonable. The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholders’ approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in section 5.5 (a) and 5.7 (a).

The Shares issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement are subject to a four month and one day restricted period from trade.
