NXLV Nexliving Communities Inc

HALIFAX, NS, Aug. 3, 2023 /CNW/ - (TSXV: NXLV) - NexLiving Communities Inc. ("NexLiving" or the "Company") announced today that the consolidation of its common shares on the basis of one post-consolidation common share for every twenty pre-consolidation shares issued and outstanding will be effective as of market open on August 3, 2023. The share consolidation was approved by the Company's shareholders at the annual and special meeting held on June 27, 2023.

The Company's shareholders will receive one post-consolidation common share for every twenty pre-consolidation shares held by them. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the consolidation. Fractional interests will be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares without any consideration payable therefor.

The consolidation affects all the Company's common shares outstanding on August 3, 2023. As a result, the number of issued and outstanding shares will be reduced to 16,539,132 from 330,782,648, subject to treatment of fractional shares. Each shareholder's percentage ownership in the Company and proportional voting power will remain unchanged, except for minor adjustments resulting from the treatment of fractional shares. The new CUSIP number for the post-consolidation shares is 65344P201 and the new ISIN number is CA65344P2017. NexLiving's common shares will continue to trade under the symbol "NXLV" and NexLiving's name will not change.

Shareholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in "street name" are not required to take any action to effect an exchange of their shares.

Registered shareholders will receive a letter of transmittal from Computershare Investor Services Inc., the Company's transfer agent. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how registered shareholders can exchange their share certificates representing pre-consolidation shares for new certificates representing post-consolidation shares. Until surrendered, each share certificate representing pre-consolidation shares will represent the number of whole post-consolidation shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the consolidation.

The Company's security-based compensation plans will be adjusted accordingly. The consolidation will not have any effect on the number of issued and outstanding common share purchase warrants of the Company. However, as a result of the consolidation, the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of each warrant will be reduced and the exercise price increased, the whole in accordance with the terms of the instruments governing the warrants.

Management believes that the share consolidation is necessary to provide the Company with a share structure that will better attract capital financing and that will provide for future growth opportunities.

The share consolidation is subject to final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.
