Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2024) - NU E POWER CORP. (the "Company") announces that, effective on or about May 15, 2024, the Company will complete a consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares (the "Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) new Common Share for every existing two (2) Common Shares (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation was approved by the Company's Board of Directors on May 8, 2024.
Immediately prior to the Consolidation there are expected to be 60,418,280 Common Shares issued and outstanding, and it is expected that there will be 30,209,140 Common Shares following the Consolidation. Each shareholder's percentage ownership in the Company and proportional voting power will remain unchanged after the Consolidation, except for minor changes and adjustments resulting from the treatment of any resulting fractional Common Shares. Where the exchange results in a fractional Common Share, the number of Common Shares will be rounded up to the next greater whole number of Common Shares if the fractional entitlement is equal to or greater than 0.5 and will be, without any additional compensation, rounded down to the next lesser whole number of Common Shares if the fractional entitlement is less than 0.5.
The record date for the Consolidation will be May 15, 2024. A new CUSIP number of 669988206 will replace the old CUSIP number of 669988107 to distinguish between the pre- and post- consolidated Common Shares. The Company's name will remain unchanged.
A letter of transmittal will be mailed to registered shareholders providing instructions on how to exchange share certificates representing the pre-Consolidation Common Shares for new share certificates or Direct Registration Advice (DRS) representing post-Consolidation Common Shares to which they are entitled as a result of the Consolidation. No action is required by non-registered shareholders (shareholders who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary) to effect the Consolidation.
The exercise or conversion price and the number of Common Shares issuable under any of the Company's outstanding warrants, stock options and other securities exercisable for or convertible into Common Shares will be proportionately adjusted in connection with the Consolidation.
