Vancouver, British Columbia, December 9, 2021 - Mogo Inc. (NASDAQ:MOGO) (TSX:MOGO) (“Mogo” or the “Company”), a financial technology, digital payments and crypto company, announced today that it has entered into definitive agreements with certain institutional investors for the sale of an aggregate of 6,111,112 common shares and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,055,556 common shares (each whole warrant, a “Warrant” and each common share and one-half of one Warrant, a “Unit”), at a purchase price of US$4.50 per Unit, in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”). The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company are expected to be approximately US$27.5 million, before deducting placement agent’s fees and expenses of the Offering payable by the Company. The Offering is expected to close on or about December 13, 2021, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the Offering.

Each Warrant will entitle its holder to acquire one common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of US$4.70 per share, will be exercisable six months following issuance, and has a term of 36 months following the initial exercise date.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital purposes and for potential future acquisitions of or investments in synergistic or strategic businesses, including (but not limited to) the exercise of warrants currently held by Mogo and the acquisition of and/or investments in businesses in the cryptocurrency space.

The common shares, Warrants and the Warrant Shares are being offered pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-254791) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2021 and declared effective by the SEC on April 15, 2021. The Offering is being made only by means of a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement. A prospectus supplement to the Company’s base shelf prospectus dated April 15, 2021 will also be filed with the provincial securities regulatory authority in British Columbia. Mogo will offer and sell the Units in the United States only. No securities will be offered or sold to Canadian purchasers.

A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the Offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available for free on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and will also be available on the Company’s profile on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com. Electronic copies of the final prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus relating to the Offering may be obtained, when available, by contacting H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC at 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10022, or by telephone: (212) 856-5711 or by e-mail: placements@hcwco.com.

Closing of the Offering will be subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including listing of the common shares and the Warrant Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) and the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) and any required approvals of each exchange. For the purposes of the TSX approval, the Company intends to rely on the exemption set forth in Section 602.1 of the TSX Company Manual, which provides that the TSX will not apply its standards to certain transactions involving eligible interlisted issuers on a recognized exchange, such as the Nasdaq.

This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
