Capstream Announces Additional Axion Acquisition


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - June 10, 2016) - Capstream Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CSP) ("Capstream" or the "Company") announces that the Company has entered into two additional agreements (each, an "Agreement") to acquire an additional interest in Axion Games Limited ("Axion"). As previously described in its press release dated May 26, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire an additional beneficial interest in Axion of approximately 5% by acquiring 85,655 shares of Axion Entertainment International Holdings Limited ("AIEH") from an arm's length shareholder of AEIH. Upon closing of the proposed 5% acquisition announced on May 26, the Company would have a beneficial interest of approximately 34.4% of the total issued and outstanding Axion shares.

Pursuant to the two additional Agreements, the Company intends on acquiring an additional interest in Axion of approximately 2.17% by acquiring a total of 3,588,304 shares of Axion (directly) from two arm's length shareholders of Axion. Completion of the two proposed acquisitions will also be subject to all required approvals, consents, authorizations and waivers being obtained, including the acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The Company intends on issuing 4,334,923 Capstream common shares in exchange for the foregoing direct interest in Axion at a deemed price of $0.40 per share and providing final terms of the acquisitions in due course.

Upon closing all three proposed acquisitions, the Company will hold the following interests:

  1. 238,788 shares (or an approximate 58.6% interest in AEIH) of the total 407,600 issued and outstanding shares of AEIH which owns 39,917,691 Axion shares;
  2. 26,866 shares (or an approximate 53.7% interest in Axion Entertainment Holdings Ltd. ("AEH")) of the total 50,000 issued and outstanding shares of AEH, which owns 55,000,000 Axion shares (5,000,000 of which are held in trust for other holders and are excluded for interest calculation purposes); and
  3. 10,214,034 Axion shares directly.

As a result of the foregoing, Capstream will have a beneficial interest in 60,465,476 (or a 36.52% interest) of the total 165,553,290 issued and outstanding Axion shares.
