GreenBank Subsidiary GreenCoinX Reconstituted as UK Company & Ceases $33 Million Private Placement Financing

Toronto, Ontario, January 16, 2017 – GreenBank Capital Inc (CSE:GBC and OTCMKTS:GRNBF) (“GreenBank”) announces that its GreenCoinX subsidiary has been reconstituted as a UK company called GreenCoinX Limited. It is intended that GreenCoinX Limited will seek a public company listing on the London Stock Exchange by the end of 2018.

The previously announced GreenCoinX private placement offering of up to $33,000,000 has ceased and will not be proceeded with. The offering did not identify sufficient investors able to provide the funding which management believes is needed to commence the GreenCoinX marketing campaign. Instead, GreenCoinX Limited will now seek private placement funds from UK and international investors and potential strategic partners. The proceeds of any funds raised by GreenCoinX Limited will be used for marketing expenses, software and hardware expenses, and working capital, all designed to launch the GreenCoinX cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem. GreenCoinX Limited intends to focus its initial marketing efforts in the UK, India and Canada.
