Leezamax Capital Corp. Announces Proposed Qualifying Transaction

28/01/2011 4:56pm

Marketwired Canada


LEEZAMAX CAPITAL CORP. (TSX VENTURE:LZX.P) of Surrey B.C. ("Leezamax" or the
"Corporation") is pleased to announce that that it has entered into a letter of
intent dated December 23, 2010 (the "Agreement") pursuant to which it intends to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Coconut Grove
Textiles Inc ("CGTI"), a Toronto-based company which designs, manufactures and
distributes ladies intimate apparel and accessories, and, also holds exclusive
North American distribution rights for a new generation of intelligent textiles
which have the ability to kill bacteria, repel insects and heal skin among other
things (the "CGTI Acquisition"). In terms of the letter of intent, the issued
and outstanding common shares of CGTI will be exchanged for the issuance of
common shares and preferred shares of the Corporation. 


Leezamax was originally listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") on
October 26, 2007, as a capital pool company but was delisted from the Exchange
on June 30, 2010, for failure to complete a Qualifying Transaction within the
time frames required by Exchange policies. It is expected that the CGTI
Acquisition will constitute a "Qualifying Transaction" for the Corporation as
such term is defined in the Exchange policies and Leezamax will be making
application to re-list its common shares in conjunction with the approval of the
proposed Qualifying Transaction.


Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, it is intended that CGTI will, in
conjunction with the completion of the CGTI Acquisition: (i) complete a private
placement financing for gross proceeds of a minimum of $1,500,000, and a maximum
of $2,000,000 (the "Private Placement"), and (ii) subject to the approval of the
shareholders of Leezamax, it is the intention of the Corporation to change its
name to "iFABRIC CORP" or such other similar name as is acceptable to regulatory
authorities and approved by the board of directors.


A special meeting of the shareholders of Leezamax (the "Meeting") will be held
to consider and approve certain aspects related to the Qualifying Transaction in
accordance with the policies of the Exchange and the Business Corporations Act
(Alberta), including the appointment of the new board of directors of the
Resulting Issuer (as defined in Exchange Policy 2.4) and the proposed change of
name. 


All information contained in this news release with respect to CGTI was
furnished by CGTI, and with respect to such information, Leezamax and its board
of directors and officers have relied on the accuracy thereof.
