Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 28, 2025) - Reem Capital Corp. (TSXV: REEM.P) (the "Corporation" or "Reem"), a "capital pool company" pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") announces that, further to its news release of September 22, 2023 announcing the definitive securities exchange agreement dated September 22, 2023 (the "Definitive Agreement") with Kalron Holdings Ltd. ("Kalron"), Seegnal eHealth Ltd. ("Seegnal"), a subsidiary of Kalron, and certain securityholders of Kalron in furtherance of the Corporation's proposed Qualifying Transaction (as defined in Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies of the Exchange) (the "Proposed Transaction"), it has amended certain terms of the Definitive Agreement and the proposed private placements.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS OF KALRON AND SEEGNAL
In the end of 2023, Seegnal successfully finished and piloted its instantaneous precision medication software as a service ("SAAS") platform with live genetic profiling in hospitals. Seegnal anticipates making this capability available to all existing clients who choose to participate in Q2 2025, offering for the first time physicians at the point of care, the ability to prescribe precision medication for patient-specific (up to DNA level) tailored medicine therapy to reduce the risk of adverse drug reactions.
In January 2024, Seegnal signed a new license agreement with LEUMIT Health Services, a large HMO in Israel, for a five year term, while converting LEUMIT to Seegnal's new SAAS business model.
In November 2024, Seegnal's UK distributor, Digitals UK, secured access for Seegnal's clinical decision-support software platform on the UK Government's G-Cloud 14 framework. This listing allows UK public sector organizations, including NHS trusts, hospitals, and clinics, to procure Seegnal's "Virtual Digital Pharmacist" through a streamlined process. The UK's NHS is responsible for one of the largest public healthcare systems in Europe, which includes 515 hospitals and 390,000 doctors. The G-Cloud 14 framework, managed by the Crown Commercial Service, facilitates public sector procurement of pre-approved cloud software and services, allowing organizations to bypass lengthy tender processes.
In December 2024, Seegnal's exclusive distributor in Poland signed a binding agreement with the largest private network of hospitals and clinics in Poland to implement Seegnal's system across a network of 20 hospitals following the completion of a pilot program in one of its hospitals, which is expected to commence Q1 of 2025.
AMENDMENT TO DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
The parties to the Definitive Agreement have amended and restated the Definitive Agreement on January 27, 2025 (the "Amended and Restated Definitive Agreement") to reflect, among other matters: (i) updates to the capitalization of Kalron; (ii) the outside date being extended to May 31, 2025; (iii) updates to the concurrent financing consisting of the Kalron Financing (as defined herein); (iv) updates to the exchange of securities being contemplated as part of the Proposed Transaction; (v) the consolidation ratio of the Corporation for the Reem Consolidation (as defined herein) being updated to 3.16:1; and (vi) the share split ratio of Kalron being updated to approximately 35.52:1 (the "Kalron Share Split").
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Definitive Agreement:
- immediately prior to closing of the Proposed Transaction, all outstanding convertible debentures and SAFEs of Kalron will be converted, in accordance with their terms, into post-Kalron Share Split ordinary shares of Kalron ("Kalron Post-Split Shares");
- the Corporation shall acquire all of the issued and outstanding Kalron Post-Split Shares by way of a securities exchange; and
- certain holders of convertible debentures of Kalron shall receive, pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreements for such convertible debentures, warrants of Reem entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Resulting Issuer Share (as defined below) at an exercise price of $1.20 per Resulting Issuer Share (post-Reem Consolidation (as defined below)) at any time on or before the 24-month anniversary from the date of issuance.
It is intended that the Proposed Transaction will constitute a reverse take-over of the Corporation by Kalron inasmuch as the former shareholders, debentureholders and other securityholders of Kalron will own approximately 78.64% of the outstanding Resulting Issuer Shares, which such calculation does not factor in the completion of the Kalron Financing (as defined below) nor any financial advisory services securities being issued at closing of the Proposed Transaction. The Corporation following the completion of the Proposed Transaction is herein referred to as the "Resulting Issuer". The Resulting Issuer Shares to be issued to former shareholders, debentureholders and other securityholders of Kalron will be issued at a deemed price of $0.80 per Resulting Issuer Share.
The Proposed Transaction will constitute the "Qualifying Transaction" of the Corporation as such term is defined in Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies (the "CPC Policy") of the Exchange. The Corporation expects to be classified as a Tier 2 Technology Issuer upon closing of the Proposed Transaction and it is anticipated that the Resulting Issuer Shares will trade on the Exchange under the stock symbol "SEGN". The Resulting Issuer Shares will remain halted pending receipt and review of acceptable documentation regarding the Qualifying Transaction pursuant to the CPC Policy.
To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of Kalron, the following persons currently beneficially own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over more than 10% of the ordinary shares of Kalron: (a) Mikal Ltd. ("Mikal"), an entity established under the laws of Israel and controlled by Gilat Management Services Ltd. ("Gilat") (an entity established under the laws of Israel and controlled by Mr. Avraham Gilat, a resident of Israel) and Edtom Ltd. ("Edtom") (an entity established under the laws of Israel and controlled by Mr. Ron Nafatli, a resident of Israel), which currently owns 71.0% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Kalron; (b) Roni Shiloh, which currently owns 13.5% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Kalron; and (c) Edtom, an entity controlled by Mr. Ron Nafatli, which currently owns 10.2% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Kalron. Gilat also owns 0.4% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Kalron.
Each of Mikal, Edtom and Gilat are expected to qualify as a Principal and Insider (as such terms are defined in the policies of the TSXV) of the Resulting Issuer following closing of the Proposed Transaction, as it is anticipated that they will each have beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the outstanding Resulting Issuer Shares (as defined below). Mikal and Edtom will hold, directly, 50.1% of the Resulting Issuer Shares following closing of the Proposed Transaction.
On or immediately prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the Corporation will consolidate its outstanding share capital (the "Reem Consolidation") on the basis of one new common share of Reem for each 3.16 existing common share of Reem. There are currently 7,900,000 common shares of Reem outstanding which will result in approximately 2,500,000 post-Reem Consolidation common shares issued and outstanding. The Reem Consolidation will also affect the holders of the Corporation's outstanding options, as described below, on the same basis.
Prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction, Kalron will complete the Kalron Share Split and will split its outstanding ordinary shares on the basis of approximately 35:52 new ordinary shares of Kalron for each one existing ordinary share of Kalron. The Kalron Share Split will not affect the holders of Kalron's outstanding convertible debentures or SAFE.
Following the completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Reem Consolidation and the Kalron Financing, there will be approximately 45,602,073 Resulting Issuer Shares outstanding, and approximately 30,951,308 Resulting Issuer Shares will be reserved for issuance pursuant to convertible securities of the Resulting Issuer.
The Proposed Transaction will not constitute a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" (as such term is defined by the Exchange). In addition, the Proposed Transaction is not a "related party transaction" as such term is defined by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders and is not subject to Policy 5.9 of the Exchange. As a result, no meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation is required pursuant to the CPC Policy or applicable securities laws.
In connection with the Proposed Transaction, Seegnal has entered into an engagement letter with Exiteam Ltd. ("Exiteam") whereby Exiteam will be paid a financial advisory services fee of Resulting Issuer Shares equaling 2% of the issued and outstanding Resulting Issuer Shares following completion of the Proposed Transaction, calculated on a fully-diluted basis, upon closing of the Proposed Transaction (the "Exiteam Financial Advisory Services Fees"). Additionally, Seegnal has entered into an engagement letter with and Quarck Investments Ltd. ("Quarck") whereby Quarck will be paid a financial advisory services fee of Resulting Issuer Shares equaling 2% of the issued and outstanding Resulting Issuer Shares following completion of the Proposed Transaction, calculated on a non-diluted basis, upon closing of the Proposed Transaction (the "Quarck Financial Advisory Services Fees"). The Exiteam Financial Advisory Services Fees and the Quarck Financial Advisory Services Fees are subject to Exchange acceptance in accordance with the policies of the Exchange. Ronnie Jaegermann is a director, officer and shareholder of Exiteam and a director of the Corporation.

Instead of the previously announced Reem private placement of subscription receipts, Kalron intends to complete a non-brokered private placement (the "Kalron Financing") of up to 5,000,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at $0.80 per Subscription Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $4,000,000 (or such greater amount as may be agreed to by Reem and Kalron). Each Subscription Receipt will, following the completion of the Proposed Transaction and the satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions, entitle the holder to receive, without the payment of additional consideration or taking of further action, one unit of Kalron consisting of (i) one Kalron Post-Split Share, and (ii) one share (post-Kalron Share Split) purchase warrant of Kalron (a "Kalron Warrant" or "Kalron Warrants"), with each Kalron Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Kalron Post-Split Share at a price of $1.20 until twenty-four (24) months following the completion of the Proposed Transaction. Each Kalron Post-Split Share and Kalron Warrant issued to holders of Subscription Receipts upon satisfaction of the escrow release conditions shall be exchanged for one common share of the Resulting Issuer (a "Resulting Issuer Share"), and one share purchase warrant of the Resulting Issuer (a "Resulting Issuer Warrant" or "Resulting Issuer Warrants") pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement, with each Resulting Issuer Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Resulting Issuer Share at a price of $1.20 until twenty-four (24) months following the completion of the Proposed Transaction.

In connection with the Kalron Financing, Kalron may pay certain finders cash commission of up to 8% of the gross proceeds of the Kalron Financing. 100% of the cash payable to such finders shall be payable to such finders upon release of the Kalron Financing proceeds from escrow.

ABOUT KALRON
Kalron is a privately-held holding corporation that was established under the laws of Israel in 2017. Other than a minority shareholder of Seegnal, Kalron is the sole shareholder of Seegnal, an Israeli based corporation which had operated under Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. ("Teva") until its purchase by Kalron in December 2017.
Seegnal was founded in 2015 as a fully owned subsidiary of Teva to develop a clinical decision support system software for clinicians at the point of care, aimed at improving patient care and outcomes, improving clinician experience and substantially lower healthcare expenditures. Seegnal provides patient-tailored SAAS system for one-glance managing and mitigating drug related problems while providing decision support to healthcare professionals at the point of care. Seegnal has developed, owns and is marketing a SAAS based software platform of addressing the need of detecting and solving drug-related problems, which has been determined as the fourth leading cause of mortality in developed countries.1 Seegnal's SAAS based software platform is a patient-tailored, clinicians'-friendly drug-related problem solution. Seegnal exclusively integrates at the point-of-care, unique patient specific data like genetics, food, results of lab tests, ECG, smoking and the effects of many concomitant medications, while delivering accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The software was developed for clinicians to manage and resolve Drug Related Problems, relevant specifically per patient, quickly and effectively. In 2017, Seegnal was purchased from Teva by Kalron. As part of the acquisition, Kalron committed to continue to employ Seegnal's employees and to pay Teva certain royalties on sales. Seegnal is marketing its SAAS-based platform in the State of Israel, the UAE, the United States of America and Poland. The platform is currently a "standard of care" system for over 10,000 clinicians in Israel on a daily basis when prescribing medications to their patients. Two of Israel's four HMO's are using the system as their primary solution.
Kalron, through its subsidiary Seegnal, has developed a vast intellectual property portfolio. The SAAS based technology contains over 1500 specific algorithms as well as United States of America, Israeli and Chinese granted patents in the areas of Graphical User Interface ("GUI") and workflow. The Seegnal system's functional disruptive GUI approach reduces the workload to 1% compared to legacy systems, while providing over 98% alert accuracy and utilizing advanced pharmacogenetics algorithms to provide futuristic precision medication therapy today.
