The Qualifying Transaction

As previously announced on March 12, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Exchange Agreement dated March 5, 2020 (the "SEA"). In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, TRB common shares (each a "TRB Share") were issued to holders of shares of Real on the basis of 1.0083 ADL Shares for every one common share of Real (the "Exchange Ratio"), giving effect to a deemed value of $0.25 per TRB Share. Outstanding stock options of Real were rolled over or exchanged at closing for stock options of the Company at the Exchange Ratio (the "Transaction").

On completion of the Transaction, the shareholders of Real hold approximately 92% of the issued and outstanding shares of TRB and previous shareholders of TRB own approximately 8.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of TRB on a non-diluted basis not including shares issuable on the ADL Private Placement (as defined below). Conditional approval from the TSXV with respect to the Qualifying Transaction was obtained on May 13, 2020. TRB filed a filing statement dated May 26, 2020 in connection with the transaction and is available under TRB's profile at www.sedar.com.

Final acceptance of the Qualifying Transaction will occur upon the issuance of the Final Exchange Bulletin (the "Exchange Bulletin") by the TSXV. Subject to final acceptance by the TSXV, TRB will no longer be a capital pool company and will be classified as Tier 1 pursuant to the TSXV policies and its common shares ("TRB Shares") are expected to commence trading on the TSXV during the week of June 8, 2020 under the ticker symbol "REAX". TRB will issue a news release once the TSXV issues the Exchange Bulletin and will then advise of the expected listing date. TRB will continue on the business of Real.

Private Placement

Concurrently with the completion of the Transaction, the Company completed a private placement financing of approximately US$1,600,000 in subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of US$0.0765 per Subscription Receipt (the "Private Placement"). The Subscription Receipts automatically exercised into TRB Shares upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction. The TRB Shares are subject to a six month hold period from the date of closing of the Private Placement comprised of a 4 month regulatory hold period plus an additional two month hold period based on contractual lock-up commitments of the subscribers.
