Schwabo Capital Corporation Announces Agreement to Purchase Intellectual Properties and Other Business Assets From AllCom

15/07/2010 8:59pm

Marketwired Canada


Schwabo Capital Corporation (TSX VENTURE:SBO.H) ("Schwabo" or the "Corporation")
Schwabo is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter of intent dated
June 3, 2010 with AllCom, a Nevada corporation ("AllCom"), whereby the parties
have agreed to complete negotiations and enter into a definitive agreement for
the purchase of certain intellectual properties making up AllCom's "Universal
Office" platform, including a nonexclusive license to use the trademarks
"Universal Office", "Genie" and "AllCom" and other business assets utilized to
provide the services of AllCom (the "AllCom Assets").


The consideration to be paid by Schwabo for the AllCom assets shall be
52,600,000 Schwabo's shares, at an agreed price of $0.50 per share ($26,300,000)
consisting of 10,600,000 post-consolidated common shares, and 42,000,000 one
year convertible preferred voting shares, the preferred shares are convertible
on a one-to-one basis for post-consolidated common shares after 12 months from
the approval of the TSX "Qualifying Transaction". It is intended that this will
be the "Qualifying Transaction" for Schwabo under the applicable policies of the
TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V"). The purchase of the AllCom Assets by Schwabo
is an arm's length transaction.


Upon completion of the Asset Purchase, the business currently carried on by
AllCom shall constitute the foundation for the business Schwabo plans to
conduct. After the closing, AllCom's existing management and staff will manage
the day to day operations of Schwabo under the supervision of Randall Skala,
AllCom's COO. The existing directors will remain on the board of Schwabo.


Concurrently with, and as a condition of this transaction, Schwabo will complete
a private placement for gross proceeds of a minimum of $1,000,000 and up to a
maximum of $1,500,000 (the "Private Placement"). The net proceeds of the Private
Placement will be used for general working capital, and to scale up the
infrastructure and marketing of the services currently provided. Pursuant to the
Private Placement, Schwabo will issue a minimum of 2,000,000 units (the "Units")
at a deemed price of $0.50 per Unit. Each Unit will be comprised of one
post-consolidated common share and one half of a common share purchase warrant
("Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one
post-consolidated common share at a price of $0.65 per share for a period of 12
months following the closing of the Private Placement. The term of the Warrants
will allow Schwabo to deem conversion of the Warrants if the common shares of
Schwabo trade at or above a price of $0.78 for more than 20 consecutive trading
days. As part of this transaction Schwabo common shares will be consolidated on
the basis of one new share for two existing shares.


This asset purchase remains subject to several conditions: entering into a
mutually acceptable formal asset purchase agreement, completion of the Private
Placement and receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including, but not
limited to, TSX-V acceptance and, if applicable pursuant to TSX-V requirements,
majority of the minority shareholder approval. Where applicable, the transaction
cannot close until the required shareholder approval is obtained.

proprietary hardware and software platform (the "Universal Office") integrating

AllCom's proprietary Universal Office soft switch integrates those three key

customer is still on the line, and the order information is electronically
forwarded where they need to send it for fulfilling the order.

About Schwabo

Schwabo presently has 2,166,668 common shares issued and outstanding of which
666,668 were issued to Schwabo founders at the time of incorporation and
1,500,000 that were issued pursuant to a public offering. 


On April 1, 2010, trading in the Corporation's common shares was suspended for
failure to complete a Qualifying Transaction within the time prescribed by TSX-V
policies. The Corporation was required to complete a Qualifying Transaction,
delist or transfer its listing to the NEX exchange prior to June 28, 2010. 


Schwabo obtained approval at a shareholder meeting on June 25, 2010 to transfer
listing of the common shares to the NEX exchange. As a condition of this
extension, the Corporation cancelled 666,665 common shares, constituting
approximately 50% of the common shares held by Non-Arm's Length Parties to the
Corporation (as such term is defined in TSX-V policies). Schwabo shareholders
also approved at the meeting a resolution of the disinterested shareholders
ratifying the cancellation of the 666,665 Common Shares originally issued to
Non-Arm's Length Parties to the Corporation.


Pursuant to TSX-V requirements, the Corporation will be preparing and filing a
Filing Statement setting out details of the proposed Qualifying Transaction.
Schwabo will also be preparing and filing an information circular for a special
meeting of shareholders to approve matters related to the proposed Qualifying
Transaction such as the consolidation of the common shares and the change of the
name of the Corporation to AllCom Canada Corporation, or such other similar name
as is acceptable to regulatory authorities. 


Schwabo is currently negotiating with Canaccord Capital Corporation to act as
agent for the Private Placement of up to $1,500,000 and intends seek a waiver
from all of part of the sponsorship requirements for the proposed Qualifying
Transaction in accordance with Exchange requirements. It is expected that
trading in the shares of the Corporation will remain suspended until further
notice.


Completion of the transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including
but not limited to, Exchange acceptance and if applicable pursuant to Exchange
requirements, majority of the minority shareholder approval. Where applicable,
the transaction cannot close until the required shareholder approval is
obtained. There can be no assurance that the transaction will be completed as
proposed or at all.


Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the management information
circular or filing statement to be prepared in connection with the transaction,
any information released or received with respect to the transaction may not be
accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of
a capital pool company should be considered highly speculative. The TSX-V has in
no way passed upon the merits of the proposed transaction and has neither
approved nor disapproved the contents of this news release.
