Savanna Capital Corp. Adoption of New Capital Pool Company Policy
June 29 2021 - 5:00PM
Savanna Capital Corp. (“
Savanna” or the
“
Company”), a capital pool company as defined
under Policy 2.4 – Capital Pool Companies (the
“
Policy”) of the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“
Exchange”), announces that the Company has
received the approval of the majority of the disinterested
shareholders (the "
Shareholders") to implement
certain amendments to align with the Exchange’s recently announced
changes to its Capital Pool Company ("
CPC")
Program and Exchange Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies, effective
as of January 1, 2021 (the "
New CPC Policy").
The Shareholders, by written consent, granted
approval to: (i) remove the consequences of failing to complete a
Qualifying Transaction (as defined in the New CPC Policy) within 24
months of the Company's date of listing on the Exchange; (ii) amend
the escrow release conditions and certain other provisions of the
Company's CPC escrow agreement dated October 6, 2017 and (iii)
permit the payment of finder’s fee or commission to a Non-Arm’s
Length Party to the Company upon completion of a Qualifying
Transaction. As such, upon receiving final approval from the
Exchange, the Company will operate under the parameters of the New
CPC Policy.
Under the New CPC Policy, the Company is
permitted to implement certain other changes without obtaining
shareholder approval. As a result, the Company wishes to have the
option to take advantage of all the changes under the New CPC
Policy that do not require shareholder approval, which became
effective on January 1, 2021, including, but not limited to:
a) increasing the maximum aggregate gross proceeds to the
treasury that the Company can raise from the issuance of common
shares (the “Share”) in the IPO, seed shares and
private placement to the new maximum of $10,000,000, rather than
$5,000,000;
b) removing the restriction which provided that no more than the
lesser of 30% of the gross proceeds from the sale of securities
issued by the Company and $210,000 may be used for purposes other
than identifying and evaluating assets or businesses and obtaining
shareholder approval for a proposed Qualifying Transaction, and
implementing the restrictions on the permitted use of proceeds and
prohibited payments under the New CPC Policy, under which
reasonable general and administrative expenses not exceeding $3,000
per month are permitted;
c) removing the restriction on the Company issuing new agent's
options in connection with a private placement; and
d) removing the restriction such that now one person has the
ability to act as the chief executive officer, chief financial
officer and corporate secretary of the Company at the same
time.
