LOS ANGELES and TORONTO, Sept. 15, 2025 /CNW/ - QYOU Media Inc. (TSXV: QYOU) (OTCQB: QYOUF), a company operating in India and the United States producing and distributing content created by social media stars and digital content creators, announced today that further to the Company's news release dated August 25, 2025, it has completed its previously announced Non-Brokered Private Placement Offering of Units. The Company issued 25,000,000 Units at a price of $0.03 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $750,000 in the Offering.

Each Unit is composed of one (1) Common Share in the capital of the Company and  three-quarters (3/4) of one common share purchase Warrant of the Company. Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one (1) Common Share at a price of $0.06 per Common Share until September 12, 2027.

Net proceeds of the Offering will be used by the Company for: (i) the partial repayment of outstanding loans; (ii) the partial payment of amounts due from the original acquisition of the Company's subsidiary, Chatterbox Technologies Limited; and (iii) working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Company has paid an aggregate of $30,551.73 and issued Finder's Warrants to acquire up to an additional 991,711 Units as finder's fees to certain persons who assisted the Company in connection with the Offering. Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one (1) Unit, comprised of one (1) Common Share and three-quarters (3/4) of one Warrant, at a price of $0.05 per Unit until September 12, 2027. The Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Finder's Warrants entitle the holder thereof to acquire one (1) Common Share at a price of $0.06 per Common Share until September 12, 2027.

Pursuant to the Offering, directors, officers and insiders of the Company subscribed for 3,334,000 Units. Participation of these related parties in the Offering constitutes "a related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The private placement of Units to the related parties is exempt from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101 and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions by the application of sections 5.5(a) and (b) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 because the Common Shares trade on the TSXV and neither the fair market value of the Units being issued to related parties nor the consideration being paid by the related parties exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization as calculated for purposes of MI 61-101. No new insiders were created, nor has there been any Change of Control (pursuant to TSXV rules), as a result of subscriptions for Units under the Offering. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering, as the details and amounts of the related party participation were not finalized until closer to closing and the Company wished to close the Offering as soon as practicable for sound business reasons.

All securities issued in the Offering, including the Finder's Warrants and the Common Shares and Warrants underlying the Units, which are issuable upon exercise of the Finder's Warrants, will be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The securities issued pursuant to the Offering have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (U.S. Securities Act) or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or U.S. persons absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or compliance with the requirements of an exemption therefrom. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the Units in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
