The Transaction is expected to be structured as a Reverse Takeover pursuant to Policy 5.2. The Transaction will result in Buccaneer adopting such name as is proposed by MedCannAccess to continue as the parent corporation of MedCannAccess (the "Resulting Issuer") with the shares of the Resulting Issuer (the "Resulting Issuer Shares") to be posted and listed for trading on the TSX-V as of the closing of the Transaction.
Buccaneer is pleased to confirm that both it and MedCannAccess are proceeding with the Transaction as planned. As previously announced, the Transaction is subject to a number of requirements including, but not limited to, TSX-V and Buccaneer shareholder approval. The parties have also agreed to extend the due diligence period by 15 days in order to permit Buccaneer to have additional time to complete its studies. Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, the parties have until August 31, 2014 to complete their respective due diligence reviews and enter into a Definitive Agreement (as defined below). That deadline has now been extended to September 15, 2014. Buccaneer will file a notice of special meeting in respect of the Transaction once the shareholder meeting date has been determined.
Trading in the common shares of Buccaneer was halted on July 4, 2014 in connection with the Transaction, and will remain halted until such time as all required documentation has been filed with and accepted by the TSX-V and permission to resume trading has been obtained from the TSX-V.
Further Information
Further details about the proposed Transaction and the Resulting Issuer can be found in the press release issued by Buccaneer on July 21, 2014, and the parties will continue to provide additional details in further press releases. A comprehensive press release will be issued when the parties enter into a definitive agreement in respect of the transaction ("Definitive Agreement") and file a joint management information circular (the "Circular") to be prepared in respect of the Transaction.
Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the disclosure document to be prepared in connection with the Transaction, any information released or received with respect to the Transaction may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of a resource issuer should be considered highly speculative.
If and when a Definitive Agreement is executed, Buccaneer will issue a subsequent press release in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V containing the details of the Definitive Agreement and additional terms of the Transaction including information relating to sponsorship, summary financial information in respect of MedCannAccess, and to the extent not contained in this press release, history of MedCannAccess and the proposed directors, officers, and insiders of the Resulting Issuer upon completion of the Transaction.
Buccaneer will apply to the TSX-V for a waiver to any sponsorship requirements under the rules of the TSX-V but will engage a sponsor in connection with the Transaction if required in accordance with the policies of the TSX-V.
The TSX-V has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed Transaction and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this news release.
A copy of the Definitive Agreement and Circular will be filed and available from Buccaneer's SEDAR profile available at www.sedar.com.
