Green Axis Announces Extension of Trade Resumption Date to January 21, 2019

Company Extends Trade Resumption Date Due to Selection of Odyssey Trust Company as New Transfer Agent

VAUGHAN, Ontario, Jan. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Green Axis Capital Corp. (the “Company”) announces that trade resumption will not take place today and will be extended to January 21, 2019. The extension is due to a change in transfer agents. 

The Company has appointed Odyssey Trust Company (“Odyssey”) as its new transfer agent.  Odyssey was selected as the new transfer agent due to their commitment to, and understanding of, the unique elements of the cannabis market. Odyssey acts for many of the major listed companies with cannabis interests in Canada and the United States.

Upon trade resumption, the Company anticipates that its common shares will resume trading under its new symbol “BILZ”, following the Company’s previously announced name change to “Ignite International Brands, Ltd.” and second consolidation of its common shares on a 5:1 basis. 

The Company anticipates filing an amended Listing Statement on or before the trade resumption date to update the corporate and business information of the Company, including the board and management changes announced on January 8, 2019 as well as the name change and share consolidation.  The Company currently has 103,471,210 common shares issued and outstanding and anticipates that, following the consolidation, 20,694,242 common shares will be issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis.

In the near future, additional items will be announced around the launch of the Ignite brand and products into Canadian and global markets.
