VANCOUVER - Westbridge Energy Corporation is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced business combination with Georgetown Solar Inc., pursuant to a business combination agreement dated March 4, 2021.

The Transaction has resulted in the reactivation of the Company pursuant to the regulations of the TSX Venture Exchange, and the listing of the common shares of Westbridge on Tier 2 of the TSXV.

Prior to the Transaction, Georgetown was a privately-held company focused on the development of large scale utility solar PV projects. Georgetown is currently in the process of assessment for development of the solar property known as the Georgetown project, which is comprised of approximately 710 acres located in Vulcan County, Alberta. To date, Georgetown has conducted fieldwork, wetland delineation and classification and engineering assessments with respect to the Georgetown Project, with a view to the development of the project to 'ready to build' status and divestiture. Following the completion of the Transaction, Westbridge will focus primarily upon the further assessment and development of the Georgetown Project, while seeking additional solar project development opportunities to enhance the overall value of the Company.

'Today's closing marks a major catalyst for Westbridge as we transition our Company into renewable energy,' said Scott Kelly. 'The Georgetown project launches our strategy of bringing technology-enabled, greenfield solar development opportunities to retail investors. Lead by Stefano Romanin and a team with more than 40 successful renewable energy exits worldwide, we see a bright future for solar and significant potential for shareholder value.'

'We are excited to be one of the only pure-play solar development companies to offer investors access toutility-scale solar projects with theliquidity of a public company' said Stefano Romanin, incoming Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company. 'As a listed company, new opportunities for expansion in the Canadian and U.S. markets are more readily available, providing ESG investment opportunities for investors and ultimately delivering abundant, cheap and clean electricity to consumers.'

The Company's shares will commence trading on Monday, June 21, 2021 on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol WEB.

Transaction Structure

The Transaction was structured as a three-cornered amalgamation pursuant to which Georgetown amalgamated with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Westbridge and Westbridge acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Georgetown from the shareholders of Georgetown in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 20,000,000 common shares of Westbridge (each, a ' Westbridge Share ') to such shareholders (being calculated based on a ratio of 2,000 Westbridge Shares for each one share of Georgetown outstanding). An aggregate of 1,200,000 Westbridge Shares were issued to a finder in connection with the Transaction.

Concurrent Financings

As a condition of the closing of the Transaction, Westbridge completed an oversubscribed private placement (the 'Private Placement') of 32,060,000 subscription receipts ('Subscription Receipts') at a price of $0.125 per Subscription Receipt to raise aggregate gross proceeds of $4,007,500. Immediately prior to the closing of the Transaction, each Subscription Receipt automatically converted, for no additional consideration, into one unit (a 'Westbridge Unit') comprised of one Westbridge Share and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each whole such share purchase warrant, a 'Westbridge Warrant'). Each Westbridge Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional Westbridge Share at an exercise price of $0.20 for a period of two years from the date of issuance of the Westbridge Warrants, provided that in the event that, at any time following August 16, 2021, the closing price of the Westbridge Shares is equal to or exceeds $0.35 per share for any 10 trading days within any 30-trading day period, westbridge may accelerate the expiry date of the outstanding Westbridge Warrants by providing 10 days' notice pursuant to the dissemination of a press release announcing such accelerated expiry date. The gross proceeds of the Private Placement were deposited in escrow at closing of the Private Placement with a mutually acceptable escrow agent, and released to Westbridge immediately prior to the closing of the Transaction.

In addition, as a condition to the closing of the Transaction, Georgetown issued convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000 which, as of closing of the Transaction, were automatically converted into an aggregate of 2,800,000 Westbridge Units at a deemed price of $0.125 per Westbridge Unit (the ' Debenture Financing ').

Following the completion of the Transaction, the net proceeds from the Private Placement and Debenture Financing are anticipated to be principally used to further assess and develop the Georgetown Project, and for general working capital purposes. While Westbridge intends to spend the funds available to it as stated above, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary.
