Icon Exploration Inc. Amends Terms of Proposed Change of Business Transaction and Obtains Conditional Approval of CSE Listing

17.12.2018  |  Newsfile
Toronto, Dec. 17, 2018 - Icon Exploration Inc. (TSXV: IEX.H) ("Icon" or the "Company") announces that it has agreed to amend certain of the terms of its proposed change of business transaction previously announced on November 7, 2018.

Pursuant to the terms of an amended Share Exchange Agreement ("SEA"), Icon has agreed to consolidate its share capital on a 1.25 old for 1 new (1.25:1) basis immediately prior to completion of its acquisition of all of the securities of City View Green (or "CVG"). Then, at closing, Icon and City View Green will complete a business combination by way of share exchange (the "Proposed Transaction") between Icon and all of the shareholders of City View Green, whereby CVG will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Icon. On closing of the Proposed Transaction, Icon will issue 8 Icon common shares for every issued common share of CVG (the "CVG Shares"). In addition, all outstanding incentive options of CVG (the "CVG Options") will be cancelled and Icon will issue 5 Icon incentive options, each of which is exercisable for a period of five years, for each CVG Option so cancelled.

With the reduced share exchange ratio, the parties now contemplate that on completion of the Proposed Transaction, Icon will issue approximately 147,765,024 post-consolidation common shares of Icon to the former CVG shareholders. Of this amount, it is expected that 106,413,336 of those post-consolidation common shares, being the total number of shares issued to principals of the resulting issuer (directors, officers, 10% shareholders and any family members residing at the same address) and certain other former CVG shareholders, will be escrowed such that 10% will be released on closing of the Proposed Transaction and an additional 15% will be released every 6 months thereafter. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the SEA, all other post-consolidation common shares issued on closing (approx. 41,351,688 shares) will be subject to a voluntary escrow such that 20% will be released on closing of the Proposed Transaction and 20% will be released 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the closing date.

At closing, Icon will also issue 20,216,665 incentive post-consolidation stock options (the "Icon Options"), 6,700,000 of which will be exercisable at a price of $0.25/share and 13,516,665 of which will be exercisable at a price of $0.75/share. All Icon Options will vest as to 1/3 on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing of the Proposed Transaction. 9,250,000 of the Icon Options to be issued to principals and certain other optionholders of the resulting issuer will be escrowed pursuant to the escrow provisions set out above.

Icon currently has 31,941,426 shares issued and outstanding, 2,766,250 warrants outstanding and 3,037,734 stock options outstanding. After completion of the proposed 1.25:1 share consolidation, Icon will have approximately 25,553,141 post-consolidation common shares issued, 2,213,000 post-consolidation warrants outstanding and 2,430,187 post-consolidation options outstanding, prior to completion of the Proposed Transaction. Thereafter, upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, it is estimated that there will be approximately 173,318,165 post-consolidation common shares issued and outstanding immediately following closing of the Proposed Transaction (198,178,017 post-consolidation common shares on a fully-diluted basis) with CVG shareholders holding approximately 85.3% of the then issued post-consolidation common shares (or 84.8% of the post-consolidation common shares on a fully-diluted basis) and current Icon shareholders holding approximately 14.7% of the then issued Icon Shares (or 15.2% of the Icon Shares on a fully-diluted basis).

Upon closing of the Proposed Transaction, Quinsam Capital Corporation, a public company listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange, will become an insider of the resulting issuer in that it will own approximately 14.9% of the then issued post-consolidation common shares of Icon (13.2% on a fully diluted basis).

All other terms of the Proposed Transaction remain unchanged, details of which were described in Icon's press release of November 7, 2018.

The completion of the Proposed Transaction remains subject to the satisfaction of various conditions that are standard for a transaction of this nature, including but not limited to (i) receipt of all requisite regulatory, stock exchange, court or governmental authorizations and consents; and (ii) the approval by the shareholders of Icon to complete the Proposed Transaction, if required by the applicable stock exchange (in which case, such approval may be obtained by written consent from a majority of shareholders in lieu of holding a meeting). There can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed on the terms proposed above or at all.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has received conditional approval to list its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") and anticipates to voluntarily delist its common shares from the TSX Venture Exchange. The date for this transition is not yet determined but will occur concurrently with the closing of the Proposed Transaction, which is expected to be completed in early January, 2019. The Company will issue a press release with further details closer to the closing date.
