Market-Maker Services with Independent Trading Group (“ITG”)

Group Ten has, subject to regulatory approval, engaged the services of ITG to provide market-making services in accordance with TSX-V policies. ITG will trade shares of the Company on the TSX-V and all other trading venues with the objective of maintaining a reasonable market and improving the liquidity of the Company’s common shares.

Under the agreement, ITG will receive compensation of CAD4,500 per month, payable monthly in advance. The agreement is for an initial term of three months and will renew for additional one-month terms unless terminated. The agreement may be terminated by either party with 30 days’ notice.

DTC Eligibility Update

The Company has initiated the process for electronic clearing and settlement of common shares through the DTC in the United States. DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, a US company that manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered to be “DTC eligible”. DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading and enhance liquidity of the Company’s common shares in the United States.

Group Ten uplisted its common shares from the Pink Sheets to the OTCQB in August 2019, and the ability to have shares electronically transferred between brokerages in the United States provides significant convenience and cost reduction to shareholders. Once the Company’s shares can be traded electronically, existing investors benefit from greater liquidity and execution speeds, whilst also accessing new investors that may previously have been restricted.
