Common Shares by Pierre Gagné Contracting Ltd. conditional on
approval by disinterested shareholders of the Issuer which is being
sought at a shareholders meeting currently scheduled to be held on
December 8, 2020). Depending upon their evaluation of the business,
prospects and financial condition of the Issuer, the market for the
Issuer’s securities, general economic and tax conditions and other
factors, any of them or entities controlled by them may acquire
more or sell some or all of their MetalCorp securities.
The shares-for-debt transactions were entered
into for the purpose of assisting MetalCorp in reducing its debts
and liabilities at a time when it did not have the cash or other
resources to pay such debts and liabilities and thereby assist
MetalCorp in reducing its working capital deficiency and enabling
it to use its limited cash and other financial resources for
ongoing operations and other obligations.
MetalCorp relied on the prospectus exemption
provided in the National Instrument 45-106, section 2.14 –
Securities for Debt in respect of its issuance of the Common
Shares.
