Creatd's management, officers, directors, and employees (the "Insiders") will have the right but not the obligation to participate in this Rights Offering on the same terms as the other equity holders, including those related to over-subscription privileges.

If the Rights Offering is fully subscribed, the Company expects to receive proceeds of up to $40 million, before expenses, with proceeds to be allocated toward funding its expansion plan. If all of the warrants underlying the Units were to be exercised in the future, the Company would receive an additional $180 million. There is no obligation of the holders of subscription rights to exercise their rights and there will be no obligation of the holders of Units to exercise the warrants forming part of the Units.

Under the terms of the proposed Rights Offering, Creatd will be issuing subscription rights to its shareholders and warrant holders of record ("Record Date Shareholders"). Record Date Shareholders will receive two subscription rights for each share of Creatd common stock or share which may be acquired via conversion or exercise of preferred stock, warrants, or options. Each subscription right will entitle the eligible holder to purchase one Unit at a premium-to-market subscription price of $2.00 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of: (i) one share of common stock, (ii) one redeemable 5-year warrant exercisable for $3 per share, and (iii) one redeemable 5-year warrant exercisable for $6 per share, with both aforementioned warrants to be publicly tradable.

In order to ensure that all trades are settled by the established Record Date, eligible shareholders must own their securities by market close on July 27, 2022, two days prior to the Record Date.

The proposed Rights Offering will include an over-subscription privilege, which will entitle each rights holder that exercises in full its basic subscription privilege the right to purchase additional Units that remain unsubscribed. The availability of basic subscription and over-subscription privilege will be subject to certain terms and conditions, including pro-rata adjustments (if any), to be set forth in the offering documents.

The Company has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the Rights Offering. The Rights Offering, which will commence following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, will only be made by means of a prospectus. The Company expects to effectuate its S-1 shortly.

This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy any securities, nor will there be any sale of securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which any such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
