Andra Enescu, CEO of Faster, stated, "Merchants are eager to invest more time in growing their businesses and less time navigating the complexities of traditional banking and managing multiple vendors for payment and operational tasks. Canada has an abundant small business landscape and Faster aspires to become the preferred payments solution for all small businesses. The planned go-public transaction strategically aligns with our growth vision, providing us with the necessary resources and visibility to extend our reach to a broader spectrum of businesses and equip them with the essential tools for success."

*The Proposed Transaction*

As per Evolution Global's announcement on September 15, 2023 (source), both parties anticipate finalizing the Proposed Transaction through a "three-cornered" amalgamation under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) or a similar transaction structure. This strategic move will culminate in a reverse takeover, transforming Evolution Global into the "Resulting Issuer" with a business focus aligned with Faster's operations. The Proposed Transaction is anticipated to conclude in fall of 2023 and is entirely arm's length.

Upon successful completion, the board composition of Evolution Global will be revised, reflecting directors nominated by Faster and appointed by the Resulting Issuer (the "*Resulting Issuer Board*"). Furthermore, specific officers of Evolution Global will step down, making way for new appointments in accordance with the reconstituted board.

The realization of the Proposed Transaction is contingent on various conditions, including: (i) execution of the Definitive Agreement; (ii) share capital consolidation,: (iii) rebranding of the Resulting Issuer name to "Faster" and its trading ticker to "*CSE:FSTR*"; (iv) Private Placement fulfillment; (v) requisite approvals from shareholders, regulatory bodies, and third parties, including the Canadian Securities Exchange ("*CSE*"), and the listing of the shares of Resulting Issuer ("*Resulting Issuer Shares*") on the CSE.

Subsequent to the execution of the Definitive Agreement, a follow-up press release will furnish comprehensive insights into the Resulting Issuer and the terms of the Proposed Transaction.

On February 6^th, 2023, Evolution Global was issued a FFCTO (Failure to File Cease Trade Order) by the Ontario and BC securities commissions, as a result, the stock was halted and suspended from trading. Trading of Evolution Global common shares will remain halted pending the CSE's review of the Proposed Transaction and fulfillment of its stipulated conditions.

*Bridge Loan from Faster*

Faster is pleased to announce a financial agreement in support of Evolution Global. Evolution Global has formalized a promissory note dated September 14, 2023 (the "*Note*"), solidifying a bridge loan provided by Faster, amounting to $192,950 (the "*Principal Amount*").

The Note outlines an 8.0% per annum interest rate, computed monthly and set to commence six months from the Note's issuance. The Principal Amount, coupled with all accrued interest, is slated for full repayment on the date that marks 36 months from the Note's initiation, referred to as the "Maturity Date".

In accordance with the Note's stipulations, the Maturity Date may be expedited, compelling repayment within 90 days, should the Letter of Intent (LOI) be terminated prior to the execution of the Definitive Agreement. This provision serves to ensure working capital availability for a timely and committed progression towards meeting the requirements of the Proposed Transaction, reinforcing the mutual dedication of both parties involved.

*Equity Financing*

Pursuant to the LOI, Faster is set to undertake an arm's length equity financing ranging from CAD$1 million to CAD$2.5 million. The Equity Financing will involve the issuance of subscription receipts ("*Subscription Receipts*") by Faster, exchangeable into Resulting Issuer Shares concurrent with the Proposed Transaction's closing.
