SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA, Sept. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUMBL, Inc. (“HUMBL”) (OTC Markets: HMBL) has announced it has terminated the Securities Exchange Agreement previously announced on August 11, 2022 for HUMBL to acquire Ecoark’s approximately 89% owned subsidiary, Agora Digital Holdings, Inc. (“Agora Digital”).
The original terms of the Securities Exchange Agreement provided for Ecoark and the remaining owners of Agora Digital to receive $60,000,000 in a new class of HUMBL preferred stock in consideration for selling their interests in Agora Digital to HUMBL.
The transaction was subject to various closing conditions, and despite working diligently over the last month, the parties were unable to reach agreement on key terms required to close. As a result, the parties have mutually agreed to terminate the Securities Exchange Agreement.
As part of the termination, HUMBL has also accepted Brad Hoagland’s resignation from the Board of Directors. “We thank Brad for his contributions to our Board of Directors and wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors,” said Brian Foote, Chairman and CEO of HUMBL.
HUMBL is a Web3 Commerce platform that has recently launched programs with individual clients from the NCAA, Major League Baseball, Olympic Surfing, Olympic Rugby and more.
HUMBL will also continue to remain active in reviewing suitable merger and acquisition candidates, having acquired four companies since June 2021 in areas such as mobile wallets, verifiable credentials, ticketing and entertainment.
