The Transaction was approved by shareholders of the Corporation at the special meeting of shareholders held on December 14, 2021 (the “SGM”), and was subsequently effected by way of an amalgamation of the Corporation and the Target in accordance with the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “OBCA”), whereby, among other things, the Corporation issued an aggregate of 100,157,881 common shares of the Corporation (“Corporation Shares”), 412,376 preferred shares of the Corporation (“Corporation Preferred Shares”) and 12,334,442 warrants of the Corporation in exchange for an equal number of common shares in the capital of the Target (“Target Common Shares”), an equal number of class A preferred shares of the Target (“Target Preferred Shares”) and an equal number of common share purchase warrants of Target.
