PanGenomic Health Inc.
(“PanGenomic” or the “Company”)
PanGenomic Health Intends to Close Shares for Debt Settlement
Vancouver, British Columbia, 2 November 2023 – PanGenomic Health Inc.
(“PanGenomic” or the “Company”) (CSE: NARA) (AQSE:NARA) is pleased to
announce that, further to its news release dated 9 August 2023, the Company
intends to complete the shares-for-debt transaction (the “Debt Settlement
Transaction”) with certain creditors of the Company, pursuant to which the
Company will settle $281,964.51 of indebtedness through the issuance of an
aggregate of 2,138,483 units (the “Units”) in the Capital of the Company
and 3,500,807 Class A Common shares (the “Shares”) in the capital of the
Company at a deemed price of $0.05 per Share.
Each Unit consists of one Share and one common share purchase warrant (each, a
“Warrant”), with each Warrant being exercisable into one Share in the
capital of the Company until 31 August 2025 at a price of $0.05 per Warrant.
The securities issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement Transaction are subject
to a four month plus one day hold period under applicable Canadian securities
laws.
An application will be made to the Aquis Stock Exchange ("Aquis") for the
5,639,290 new Shares to be admitted to trading. Admission is expected to take
place, and dealings on Aquis in the Shares are expected to commence, at 08:00
on or around 8 November 2023.
Following Admission, the Company will have 104,967,459 Shares in issue. Since
the Company currently holds no shares in treasury, the total number of voting
rights in the Company will therefore be 104,967,459. These figures may
therefore be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the
FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
A portion of the debt settled in the Debt Settlement Transaction was owed to
Connected Displays Inc. (dba Excelar Technologies), a company beneficially
owned and controlled by Colin Quon, an officer of the Company’s wholly owned
subsidiary, Pangenomic Technologies Corp. Mr. Quon’s participation in the
Debt Settlement Transaction constitutes a related party transaction as defined
under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders
in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company intends to rely on the
exemption from the formal valuation requirements of Section 5.4 of MI 61-101
pursuant to Subsection 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 and the exemption from the minority
approval requirements of Section 5.6 of MI 61-101 pursuant to Subsection
5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the Shares
issued to Mr. Quon, and the indebtedness previously owed to Mr. Quon, do not
constitute 25% or more of the Company’s market capitalization.
The debt settled to Connected Displays Inc. also constitutes a related party
transaction under Rule 4.6 of the AQSE Growth Market Access Rulebook. The
Directors of Pangenomic consider that having exercised reasonable care, skill
and diligence, the related party transaction is fair and reasonable as far as
the shareholders of Pangenomic are concerned.
