Coinsilium Investment Update

RSK Labs acquired by RIF Labs and completes Private Token Sale

RIF Board and Advisory Appointments

Coinsilium Group Limited (NEX:COIN), the blockchain venture builder, advisor and investor that finances and manages the development of early-stage blockchain technology companies, is pleased to provide the following update on its investment in RSK Labs.

Further to the announcement today from RSK Labs, a company where Coinsilium holds 65,000 series Seed-1 preferred shares via its wholly-owned subsidiary Seedcoin Limited ('Seedcoin), RIF Labs has agreed to acquire the entire share capital of RSK Labs. RIF Labs is a Gibraltar registered company developing a new off-chain infrastructure layer called the RSK Infrastructure Open Standard Protocols ('RIF OS Protocols') using the RSK Smart Contract Network for settlement, identity management and economic coordination in a fully decentralised fashion.

This acquisition will see RIF Labs take the lead on the development and community support of both the RSK Smart Contract Network and the RIF OS Protocols.

Background to Original Investment

The Company announced on 14 January 2016 that Seedcoin had invested US$50,000 for a convertible instrument that provided the right to shares of RSK Labs' equity at a pre-money valuation of not more than US$5,000,000. The Company subsequently exercised its conversion rights for 50,000 series Seed-1 RSK shares. In February 2018 the Company purchased a further 15,000 series Seed-1 RSK shares for a consideration of US$33,750 making the total amount invested US$83,750 for a total holding of 65,000 Seed-1 RSK shares.

The Transaction

The transaction will be conducted by way of a 'share for token' swap and Coinsilium will receive approximately 1,951,846 RIF tokens in return for its 65,000 series Seed-1 RSK shares. The total amount of RIF tokens to be received by Coinsilium during the vesting period (described below) is equivalent to circa 139.41757 Bitcoins or US$773,070 at the current Bitcoin/USD rate as of 18 November 2018. Coinsilium will have an option to receive 15% of the total tokens in cash or Bitcoin (at the discretion of RIF Labs), with the remaining 85% to be received in RIF Tokens over the vesting period.

Vesting Terms

The Consideration will be released as follows

12.5% of total consideration shall be released 6 months after completion of the transaction and a further 2.5% each month for 42 months thereafter.

RIF Labs Private Token Sale

RIF Labs, the purpose-driven organisation to be led by RSK Labs's founding team and other executives, that undertook a private token sale, considers itself to be well funded to properly carry forward the RSK Labs and RIF Labs shared vision of bringing the Internet of Value to life.

Additionally, the open source RSK Smart Contract Network created by RSK Labs will continue to run on its native currency SmartBitcoin ('RBTC') which is and will always be convertible at the fixed parity of 1 RBTC for 1 Bitcoin.

The joint RSK Labs and RIF Labs teams will continue to take the lead on contributing to the development of the open RSK Smart Contract Network that has been in the hands of the community for some time now. On top of that, they will take the lead on the development of the RIF OS Protocols.
