Malchemy is an entity controlled by Sicheng Zhang, a director, officer and shareholder of the Company, and TAL and K Plus are entities controlled by Jim Hsieh, a director, officer and shareholder of the Company. Other than the amendments described herein, the other terms of the debentures and loans remain the same. The purpose of the amending agreements is to reduce the cost to the Company of the debentures and loans and to extend the maturity dates to provide CAG with more flexibility to repay the debentures and loans.
Related Party Participation
The amendments to the debentures and the loans are with entities controlled by insiders of CAG. As insiders of the Company participated in these transactions, they are deemed to be "related party transactions" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").
The amending agreements were unanimously approved by the board of directors of the Company, with Sicheng Zhang and Jim Hsieh abstaining.
The amendments to the debentures and the loans are exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a)) as the amendments to the debentures and loans have a fair market value not more than 25% of the market capitalization of CAG.
The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the effective date of the amendments because the Company wished to effect the amendments on an expedited basis for business reasons.
