Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 13, 2021) - Contakt World Technologies Corp.(CSE: TKR) (FWB: B2I) (the "Company" or "Contakt World") is pleased to announce the completion of its previously announced reverse takeover transaction (the "Transaction") with Contakt World Technologies Corp.

("Subco") and certain founding shareholders of Contakt Target.
The Transaction was carried out by way of a three-cornered amalgamation, whereby Subco and Contakt Target amalgamated and Contakt Target became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Transaction, the Company (i) changed its name from "Tracker Ventures Corp." to "Contakt World Technologies Corp.", (ii) reorganized its share structure to redesignate its existing common shares as class A subordinate voting shares (the "Subordinate Voting Shares") and create a new class of class B super voting shares and (iii) reconstituted its leadership team such that it is now composed of the following individuals: Justin Beck as Chief Visionary Officer; Zayn Kalyan as Interim Chief Executive Officer and a director; Dong Shim as Chief Financial Officer; Robin Coleman as a director; Catherine Delcin as a director; and Christopher Cherry as a director.
The Acquisition constituted a "fundamental change" of the Company, as such term is defined in the rules and policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"). Upon acceptance of the Company's final application with the CSE respecting the Transaction, the Company will provide a further update respecting the date on which the Subordinate Voting Shares will commence trading under the Company's new trading symbol "HELP".
Justin Beck, Chief Visionary Officer, added, "I want to thank everyone for their patience, and the CSE for their support, during this process. With our public listing, Contakt World is better positioned to attract capital, retain talent, pursue M&A, and realize our commercial plans. We couldn't be more excited about our future."
Once accepted by the CSE, a copy of the Form 2A listing statement in connection with the Transaction will be available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and the CSE website.
