Kodoku is a studio based in London, England, in the business of developing and publishing NFT (or non-fungible token) games.

Hewie Rattray, CEO of Kokoku commented, “I am positively thrilled by the acquisition of Kodoku by Pioneer. We relish the opportunity to exercise our vision in the NFT gaming market under the guidance of such an innovative company. We eagerly anticipate unifying with the Pioneer trajectory as we push the frontiers of the metaverse to new limits.”
In consideration of all of the securities of Kodoku, the Company paid cash consideration of $850,000 CAD, which amount will be subject to “holdback” conditions until January 31, 2022. Additionally, the Company will issue 8,000,000 common shares, which will be subject to a 24 month escrow period, with scheduled releases in 25% installments every six months commencing June 1, 2022, in addition to any other resale restrictions or escrow requirements under applicable laws or CSE policies.
Application will be made for 8,000,000 common shares to be admitted to trading on Aquis Stock Exchange and such admission is expected to occur at 8:00am on or around 7 December 2021.
Following the issuance of the above-mentioned common shares, the Company's issued share capital will comprise 64,640,365 common shares without par value, with each share carrying the right to one vote.
Kodoku and its shareholders are not “related parties” (as such term is defined under CSE policies) of the Company.
The directors take responsibility for this announcement.
