12.04.2022  |  Accesswire

This Press Release Replaces the Press Release Issued Earlier Today and Includes an Update to the Company Name (AgMedica Bioscience) in the Headline

VANCOUVER, April 12, 2022 - Silver Phoenix Resources Inc. (CSE:SP) ("SPR" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding memorandum of understanding dated as of April 8, 2022 (the "MOU") with Atlas Biotechnologies Inc. ("Atlas"), AgMedica Bioscience Inc. ("AgMedica") and Cambrosia Ltd. ("Cambrosia") (collectively, the "Target"). The MOU outlines the proposed terms and conditions pursuant to which SPR and the Target will effect a business combination that will result in a reverse takeover of SPR by the securityholders of the Target (the "Proposed Transaction"). The MOU was negotiated at arm's length.

The entity resulting from the Proposed Transaction will be a full vertically integrated, global cannabis company that takes advantage of scale, existing brands and strong distribution. The entity will have operations in Canada and internationally, and distribution across many of the jurisdictions that have a legal framework for medical cannabis.

Terms of the MOU

Subject to satisfactory tax, corporate and securities law advice for both SPR and the Target, the Proposed Transaction will be structured as an amalgamation, arrangement, takeover bid, share purchase or other similar form of transaction or a series of transactions that have a similar effect, and pursuant to which:

(i) SPR will acquire all voting securities of the Target;

(ii) the existing shareholders of the Company as of immediately prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction will hold common shares of the Company with a value of $3 million (including cash on hand and subject to indebtedness of not more than $250,000); and

(iii) the shareholders of Target will be issued common shares of the Company (the "Consideration Shares"), with an aggregate deemed value of $189 million.

Certain of the Consideration Shares will be subject to escrow and resale restrictions pursuant to the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Exchange").

The MOU also provides that effective on closing of the Proposed Transaction the Company will, among other things: (i) change its name to a name requested by the Target and acceptable to applicable regulatory authorities; (ii) increase the size of its board of directors to between five and nine, as directed by the Target; and (ii) replace all directors and officers of the Company on closing of the Proposed Transaction with nominees of the Target.

Completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals, execution of related transaction documents, approval of the Exchange, disposition of the Company's mining assets, there being no adverse material change in the affairs of the parties and completion of satisfactory due diligence by each of the parties.

The MOU contains representations and warranties of the parties as to the due authorization and enforceability of the MOU, and in respect of the Company, its share and loan capitalization, corporate status and absence of outstanding litigation.

Pursuant to the MOU, each of the Target and the Company agreed to (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate the terms of a definitive agreement reflecting the terms of the MOU and other representations and warranties, covenants and conditions that are customary for a transaction of this nature for execution on or prior to April 30, 2022; (ii) conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course; and (iii) not enter into negotiations or solicit any expressions of interest for any transaction competitive to the Proposed Transaction.

The MOU shall terminate upon any party notifying the others that it is not satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigation by April 30, 2022.

It is anticipated that an annual general and special shareholder meeting of the Company to approve, among other matters, all required matters in connection with the Proposed Transaction will take place following entering into of the Definitive Agreement, and closing of the Proposed Transaction will take place in the second or third quarter of 2022 and in any event prior to October 31, 2022.

Further details of the Proposed Transaction will be included in subsequent news releases and disclosure documents (which will include business and financial information in respect of the Target) to be filed by the Company in connection with the Proposed Transaction.
