TSX Venture Exchange: APHE.P

VANCOUVER, BC, May 10, 2021 /CNW/ - Aphelion Capital Corp. ("Aphelion" or the "Company") announces that in connection with its Annual General and Special Meeting ("AGSM") of shareholders of the Company ("Shareholders") originally scheduled to be held on May 12, 2021, the Company has filed an amended and restated information circular dated May 7, 2021 (the "Restated Circular"), a copy of which is available on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

In order to permit all Shareholders to review the Restated Circular, the Company further announces that the AGSM shall now be held on June 4, 2021 at 10:00 AM (Vancouver Time). Information on how to vote and attend the AGSM is included with the Restated Circular.

Pursuant to the Restated Circular, the capital alteration resolution has been revised to include a change to the name of the common shares of the Company to "Subordinate Voting Shares" ("Subordinate Voting Shares"), to create a new class of preferred multiple voting shares (the "Preferred Multiple Voting Shares") to the authorized capital structure of the Company and the addition of certain special rights and restrictions to each of the classes of shares of the Company, all as set forth in the Restated Circular (the "Capital Alteration Resolution").

The Preferred Multiple Voting Shares will be entitled to one vote in respect of each Subordinate Voting Share into which such Preferred Multiple Voting Share could be converted, and as such the Preferred Multiple Voting Shares do not necessarily hold voting rights that are superior to the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares, on an as converted to Subordinate Voting Shares basis. In accordance with Section 5 Policy 5.3 of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), the Company will obtain Majority of the Minority Approval (as defined below) for the creation of the Preferred Multiple Voting Shares.

Majority of the Minority Approval means the approval, at a properly constituted meeting of the holders of shares of the Company of a resolution to create a class or series of Preferred Multiple Voting Shares, by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares of the Company who vote at the AGSM, other than Promoters (as defined under TSXV policies), directors, officers or other Insiders (as defined under TSXV policies) of the Company and of any proposed recipient of Preferred Multiple Voting Shares and their Associates and Affiliates (as each are defined under TSXV policies) (the "Capital Alteration Resolution Disinterested Shareholders").

Additionally, the Capital Alteration Resolution will be used to approve a "restricted security reorganization" pursuant to National Instrument 41-101 - General Prospectus Requirements and OSC Rule 56-501 - Restricted Shares (the "Restricted Share Rules"). The Restricted Share Rules require that a restricted security reorganization receive prior majority approval of the securityholders of the Company in accordance with applicable law, excluding any votes attaching to securities held, directly or indirectly, by affiliates of the Company or control persons of the Company.

Votes for the Capital Alteration Resolution will be calculated twice. The first calculation will include all Shareholders of the Company in person or represented by proxy at the AGSM, and the second calculation will include only the Capital Alteration Resolution Disinterested Shareholders. In order to pass the Capital Alteration Resolution, the Capital Alteration Resolution must be approved by both Shareholders holding 66 2/3% of the voting rights attaching to the shares entitled to vote at the AGSM and Capital Alteration Resolution Disinterested Shareholders holding 50% of the voting rights attaching to the shares of the Capital Alteration Resolution Disinterested Shareholders entitled to vote at the AGSM. It is currently anticipated that approximately 2,000,000 common shares of the Company held by Capital Alteration Resolution Disinterested Shareholders will be excluded from voting on the Capital Alteration Resolution.

At the AGSM, disinterested Shareholders will also be asked to consider two resolutions to adopt the variations to the capital pool company policies recently adopted by the TSXV to: (1) authorize the Company to remain on the TSXV in the event the Company does not complete a Qualifying Transaction (as defined in TSXV policies) within the original 24 month time limit; and (2) to amend the release terms of the escrow agreement dated November 26, 2019 among the Company, TSX Trust Company and certain security holders of the Company to reflect the new escrow release terms set out in the TSXV's amended capital pool company policy.
