HEXO Announces Filing of Early Warning Report in Respect of the Former Zenabis Global Inc.
November 01 2022 - 6:00AM
HEXO Corp. (TSX: HEXO; NASDAQ: HEXO) (“
HEXO” or
the “
Company”) today announced that, following the
issuance of an approval and vesting order of the Superior Court of
Québec (Commercial Division) on October 24, 2022 (as amended and
restated on October 25, 2022) (the “
Zenabis Approval and
Vesting Order”) in connection with previously initiated
proceedings under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act relating
to Zenabis Global Inc. (“
Zenabis”) and its direct
and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the
“
Zenabis Group”), the Company no longer holds any
shares, voting or equity securities or other interests in Zenabis
or the Zenabis Group.
HEXO understands that, as part of the
pre-closing steps approved by the Zenabis Approval and Vesting
Order, Zenabis amalgamated with certain other companies within the
Zenabis Group to form Zenabis Ltd. (“AmalCo”).
Subsequently, all of the issued and outstanding shares of AmalCo
then held by the Company as a result of such amalgamation were
exchanged for common shares of a newly formed corporation
(“ResidualCo”) and, immediately thereafter, all of
the common shares of the capital of ResidualCo so held by the
Company were cancelled for no consideration, as approved by the
Zenabis Approval and Vesting Order. As a result of the foregoing,
HEXO no longer holds any shares, voting or equity securities or
other interests in any of the companies within the Zenabis Group,
AmalCo or ResidualCo, and HEXO ultimately received no cash or other
consideration for it so ceasing to hold any shares, voting or
equity securities or other interests in Zenabis Global Inc.
(including through the latter’s successor, namely AmalCo).
