VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Venzee Technologies Inc. (TSXV: VENZ) (“Venzee” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update with respect to its transaction (the “Transaction”) with Digital Commerce Payments Inc. (“DCP”) to acquire DCP’s Jasper Software as a Service (SaaS) Product Information Management (PIM) Solution business (the “Jasper Business”), which was previously announced on November 3, 2025. Venzee is also reporting the results of its annual general and special meeting (the “Meeting”) of holders (“Shareholders”) of common shares (“Shares”) of the Company held on December 10, 2025.

Transaction Update

The Transaction has been conditionally approved by the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and received requisite approvals by Shareholders at the Meeting, as described in further detail below. The TSXV has also conditionally approved the Company’s previously announced proposed private placement of up to 31,578,947 Shares at a price of CAD$0.095 per Share for aggregate gross proceeds of up to CAD$3,000,000 (the “Private Placement”). The Debt Settlement (as defined below) remains subject to the conditional approval of the TSXV.

As part of the Transaction, DCP and its affiliates will agree to convert all of the outstanding debt owing to them by Venzee into Shares, and Venzee will seek the agreement of each other holder of Venzee’s convertible debentures (“Convertible Debentures”) to convert their Convertible Debentures into Shares. Completion of the Transaction is conditional on, among other things, all holders of Convertible Debentures agreeing to convert their Convertible Debentures into Shares, such that Venzee would have no outstanding debt on completion of the Transaction (the “Debt Settlement”). This condition may be waived at DCP’s discretion. The Company is in the process of seeking agreement from all holders of Convertible Debentures to convert their Debentures into Shares, and this condition to Closing has not yet been satisfied.

Completion of the Transaction, the Private Placement and the Debt Settlement remains subject to satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to closing, which are described in more detail in the Company’s information circular dated November 7, 2025 (the “Information Circular”) filed on Venzee’s SEDAR+ profile and available for viewing at www.sedarplus.com. It is currently anticipated that closing of the Transaction will occur by December 31, 2025.
