Vernon, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 9, 2020) - True Leaf Brands Inc. (CSE: MJ) (OTC Pink: TRLFF) (FSE: TLA) ("True Leaf" or the "Company") announces that it plans to consolidate all of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares (the "Share" and, collectively, "Shares") on the basis of nine (9) to one (1) (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation was previously announced on November 17, 2020 as part of its restructuring plan.
Effective December 10, 2020, with a record date of December 11, 2020, the Company expects to begin trading the Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange on a post-Consolidation basis under its existing name and ticker symbol. The new CUSIP and ISIN for the Shares is 89785F209 and CA89785F2098, respectively.
Prior to the Consolidation, the Company had 102,370,431 pre-consolidation Shares issued and outstanding. Following the Consolidation, the Company has approximately 11,374,492 post-consolidation Shares issued and outstanding. In the event that the Consolidation would otherwise result in the issuance to any shareholder of a fractional post-Consolidation Share, no fractional post-Consolidation Common Shares shall be issued and the number of post-Consolidation Shares issuable to such shareholder that is less than 1/2 of a share will be cancelled and each fractional share that is at least 1/2 of a share will be changed to one whole common share. Except for any change resulting from the rounding described above, the change in the number of Shares outstanding that would result from the Consolidation will cause no change in the stated capital attributable to the Shares.
A letter of transmittal will be mailed to registered shareholders providing instructions to surrender the certificates evidencing the pre-consolidation Shares held in exchange for replacement certificates or Direct Registration Advice representing the number of post-consolidation Shares to which they are entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate representing pre-consolidation Shares will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole post-consolidation Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled because of the Consolidation. Shareholders who hold their pre-consolidation Shares in brokerage accounts or in "street name" are not required to take any action to surrender or exchange the pre-consolidation Shares so held.
