AAJ Capital 2 Corp. Announces the Appointment of Chief Revenue Officer to TUT Fitness Group Limited

Further Strengthening TUT's Ability to Make Home Gym Training More Affordable and Accessible

VANCOUVER, BC, Jan. 20, 2021 /CNW/ - AAJ Capital 2 Corp. (TSX-V: AAJC.P) ("AAJ" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that TUT Fitness Group Limited ("TUT Fitness") has appointed RJ Wafer to the position of Chief Revenue Officer, overseeing TUT Fitness' Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy including, revenue operations, direct sales and affiliate programs, strategic partnerships, channel planning and strategic relationships with technology, content, community providers and further development of TUT's OEM licensing revenue streams.     

RJ Wafer has spent the better part of his career working at the forefront of emerging technologies, and successfully scaling consumer hardware and software platform companies by leading their go-to-market initiatives. Before joining TUT, Wafer led the successful build-out and global distribution sales efforts for several successful consumer hardware businesses, including the legendary 3D printing startup, MakerBot Industries (sold in 2013 for $604M USD to Stratasys), and Double Robotics telepresence robots, the world leaders in mobile telepresence for the booming remote work marketplace.

TUT Fitness President, Rob Smith, commented "RJ is a world-class executive and we are very fortunate to have him join our senior leadership team at a time where the connected Home Gym and Fit Tech hardware space is experiencing unprecedented growth. His intimate consumer hardware knowledge, technology experience, track record of engaging and developing new markets, global sales and distribution channels for partners, will further drive our revenue development and wider consumer adoption of the TUT Home Gym and Rower." 

"I am excited to be a part of the TUT Fitness Group's go-to-market team. TUT combines high-level engineering and effectiveness with affordability and ease of use, while the roadmap will expand our role within the fitness community as a whole. We have a high bar and strong expectations for where we are going, and I think folks are going to be excited about how we get there. Personally, I've incorporated the TUT into my own fitness journey, and I would not be here unless I saw the true potential for us to be a leader in the marketplace," noted Wafer.

AAJ also wishes to announce that Satnam Brar has been appointed to the role of AAJ's Corporate Secretary.   

AAJ will issue additional news releases related to the final legal structure and terms of the previously announced transaction with TUT Fitness (the "Transaction"), capitalization of TUT and the Resulting Issuer and TUT financing terms, financial information regarding TUT, the names and background of insiders of the Resulting Issuer and other material information as it becomes available.

The trading in the shares of AAJ is presently halted and will remain so until the Transaction is completed and approved by the TSX Venture Exchange.
