Virtual Crypto® Technologies Will Receive Second Milestone Payment From Chiron Refineries

ROSH HAA'YIN, Israel, May 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtual Crypto Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: VRCP), a technology company acting through its wholly owned Israeli subsidiary Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd., announced today that the second milestone payment of $50,000 under the January 2018 binding Memorandum of Understanding ("Memorandum") with Chiron Refineries Ltd. (TASE: CHR) ("Chiron") for the distribution of the Company's products in the territory of Turkey and North Cyprus will be paid in Chiron stock.

Virtual-Crypto elected to accept the $50,000 payment in 380,000 Chiron shares at the price of 0.55 NIS per share in lieu of cash, to be made following delivery by the Company to Chiron of its Beta version of the software for its tablet product. The allotment of shares is subject to the approval of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange for listing thereof for trade. Following receipt of this payment, the Company will have received a total of $100,000 under the Memorandum.

Alon Dayan, CEO of Virtual-Crypto, commented, "Our collaboration with Chiron continues to progress at an accelerated pace, largely driven by their desire to establish an early foothold in the Turkish and Cypriot markets. Preliminary testing of the modified software was extremely successful and we expect to maintain this momentum, providing them with a next version we expect to be released in the following weeks."

Rony Kuperberg, CEO of Chiron Refineries, added, "We decided to enter the cryptocurrency sector as we envision a significant increase in market participation and believe that there is a real opportunity to generate substantial revenues by making cryptocurrency accessible and understandable to the mainstream consumer. Virtual-Crypto's platform does that, and I am confident that it will provide us with a real competitive advantage with our target audience."

The Agreement
In January 2018, the Company's subsidiary signed a binding Memorandum of Understanding with Chiron Refineries Ltd. granting Chiron's wholly owned subsidiary exclusive rights as a distributor of the Company's cryptocurrency products in the territories of North Cyprus and Turkey. According to the agreement, Chiron will pay the Company a total of $250,000, $150,000 of which was made on account of future purchases. Chiron has also agreed to pay the Company a fee of 30% of the net revenues received from the sales of Chiron's products. There is no minimum purchase quota in the first year of the agreement; however, Chiron has agreed to purchase at least $30,000 during the second year and $50,000 during the third year of the agreement. Chiron was also granted the option, exercisable within 12 months, to expand the distribution territory to Nigeria. If exercised, Chiron will pay the Company an additional fee not higher than $250,000.
