Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 6, 2024) - Vext Science, Inc. (CSE: VEXT) (OTCQX: VEXTF) ("Vext" or the "Company"), a U.S.-based cannabis operator with vertical operations in Arizona and Ohio, today announced that it has received regulatory approval for, and has closed, the previously announced debenture conversion transaction (the "Conversion Transaction"). For further details of the Conversion Transaction, see the Company's news release dated December 27, 2023.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described in this news release in the United States or any other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Such securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and, accordingly, may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, "U.S. persons" (as those terms are defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Sopica Special Opportunities Fund Limited ("SSOFL"), an insider shareholder of the Company, acquired 24,087,500 common shares upon conversion of debentures held by SSOFL. Accordingly, SSOFL's participation constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Such transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of any securities issued to, nor the consideration paid by, SSOFL exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the expected closing of the Conversion Transaction as the anticipated receipt of final regulatory approval was not known to the Company at that time and the Company wished to close the Conversion Transaction as soon as practicable for sound business reasons.
