Osisko Green Acquisition Limited Announces Final Redemption and Cancellation of Special Meeting to Seek an Extension to Its Permitted Timeline
August 31 2023 - 8:29AM
Osisko Green Acquisition Limited (TSX: "GOGR" and "GOGR.WT")
("
Osisko Green" or the
"
Corporation") announced today that its board of
directors has determined that the Corporation will be wound-up in
accordance with its articles and the policies of the Toronto Stock
Exchange and that the Corporation's Class A restricted voting
shares will be automatically redeemed on or about September 8,
2023, the expiry of the permitted timeline to complete a qualifying
transaction.
The Corporation's board of directors has
determined that it is in the best interests of Osisko Green and its
shareholders to be wound-up as they do not believe that an
appropriate qualifying transaction can be identified and completed
within the Corporation's permitted timeline, as extended. Since its
initial public offering, the Corporation identified and engaged
with a number of attractive potential targets. However, due to
changing financial market conditions and economics in the Green
Energy Commodities Sector, the Corporation has been unable to
consummate a transaction that meets its investment criteria.
Accordingly, and after considering investor feedback, Osisko Green
will not seek a further extension to its permitted timeline and the
special meeting of holders of Class A restricted voting shares
scheduled for August 31, 2023 will be cancelled.
The redemption amount per Class A restricted
voting share is expected to be, as provided under the Corporation's
articles, approximately $10.31 per share based on the value of the
escrow account as of the date hereof. Payment of the redemption
amount, net of applicable taxes and other permitted deductions,
will constitute the Corporation's final payment in respect of the
liquidation of the escrow account that holds the proceeds of the
Corporation's initial public offering. There will be no
distributions from the escrow account with respect to the
Corporation's Class B shares or warrants, which will terminate in
accordance with their terms. The Corporation's Class A restricted
voting shares will be delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange
following the redemption of the shares. Pursuant to the
Corporation's articles the redemption date must be within 10 days
following the last day of the permitted timeline.
