Abattis Bioceuticals (ATT-Cse) Letter of Intent to Acquire Winston Resources (WRW-Cse)
Dec 22, '17 - NR
Abattis Bioceuticals is pleased to announce that, effective today, it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with Winston Resources Inc. ("Winston Resources"), a reporting issuer listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange, which outlines the general terms and conditions of a proposed transaction (the "Proposed Transaction") that will result in Abattis acquiring all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Winston Resources at the time of closing in exchange for 25,000,000 common shares of Abattis. As a result of the Proposed Transaction, Winston Resources shareholders will own approximately 10.2% of Abattis's issued and outstanding common shares.
Pursuant to the LOI, the parties have agreed to use their best efforts to formulate a structure for the Proposed Transaction that is formulated to comply with all necessary legal and regulatory requirements, minimize or eliminate any adverse tax consequences and be as cost effective as possible. It is anticipated that the LOI will be superseded by a definitive agreement between the Company and Winston Resources, and that such agreement will include representations, warranties and covenants typical for a transaction of similar nature to the Proposed Transaction as well as customary conditions precedent, including completion of due diligence and receipt of any required consents and approvals, including those of the CSE and shareholders of Winston Resources.
None of the securities to be issued pursuant to the Proposed Transaction have been or will be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, or any state securities laws, and any securities issued pursuant to the Proposed Transaction are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon available exemptions from such registration requirements and applicable exemptions under state securities laws. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the securities in the United States.
Further details about the Proposed Transaction will be provided in a more comprehensive press release when Company and Winston Resources enter into a definitive agreement.
