Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2021) - Interactive Games Technologies Inc. (CSE: BETS) (FSE: F0O) (OTCQB: BLITF) ("IGT.BETS" or the "Company") regrets that it needs to clarify the disclosure provided to the market by the former CEO and current director of the Company, as being false and misleading. The Company is aware of claims being made by Mr. Neville, and believes the subject matter of Mr. Neville's claims to be without merit. Further to the Company's press release from March 29, 2021, at the request of the Canadian Securities Exchange and IIROC, the Company is confirming that Mr. Neville is no longer the CEO of the Company, and he has been informed of this on multiple occasions, but yet seems to be unwilling to acknowledge this fact. Mr. Neville remains a director of the Company.
In addition, Mr. Neville has notified the Company that he intends to commence an action for wrongful dismissal and an oppression claim, which directly contradicts Mr. Neville's claim that he remains the CEO. Mr. Neville is seeking damages based on bad faith and damage to his reputation. The Company believes the subject matter of Mr. Neville's claims to be without merit and intends to fully defend its interests and take all other legal actions available to it. If Mr. Neville commences these claims, the Company intends to counter sue Mr. Neville.
