15.02.2018  |  Newsfile
Vancouver, February 14, 2018 - Mesa Exploration Corp. (TSXV: MSA) (OTC: MSAJF) (the "Company" or "Mesa") is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent ("LOI") with THOR Pharma ("THOR") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common shares of THOR, an applicant under Health Canada's "Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations" ("ACMPR").

Acquisition Terms

Subject to Exchange approval, as well as applicable director and shareholder approvals, THOR shall sell and Mesa shall acquire, on an arm's-length basis, all of the issued and outstanding Common voting shares of THOR (the "THOR Shares") from the current holders of the THOR Shares ("THOR Shareholders"). The total purchase price shall be satisfied by Mesa issuing 400,000,000 of its Common shares ("Mesa Shares") to the THOR Shareholders. The price was determined using a $0.05 share price for Mesa and an enterprise value for Thor of $20 million. The consideration for the Acquisition was determined through arm's-length negotiation by the parties.

The proposed arm's-length acquisition (the "Acquisition") is subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction with diligence investigations, entering into applicable definitive agreements, necessary corporate and shareholder approvals and applicable exchange acceptance. Upon completion of the Acquisition the issuer will be involved in the Life Sciences industry sector. This will constitute a Change of Business ("COB") and a Reverse Takeover ("RTO") as defined by TSXV Policy 5.2.

Under the Letter of Intent, dated February 12, 2018, THOR and Mesa also agree to seek to raise up to $2,000,000 pursuant to a contemplated issuance of Common shares of Mesa, via a private placement, with terms which are to be determined. Proceeds of this financing are to be used: (1) for costs relating to the acquisition and retrofitting of a greenhouse; (2) for the pursuit of the final licensing of THOR to produce and sell medical marijuana under the ACMPR; and (3) for working capital and general corporate purposes. Additional funding or share issuance will be required to complete the acquisition and retrofitting of a greenhouse.

Prior to closing the Acquisition, it is anticipated that the Company will apply to list its common shares for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") and voluntarily delist its common shares from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). It is expected that the Company will delist from the TSXV concurrently with the listing on the CSE immediately following the completion of the Acquisition.

The closing date for the proposed Acquisition is expected to be on or around April 15, 2018. Trading of the common shares of the Company has been halted by the TSXV and will remain halted pending completion or termination of the proposed Acquisition, pursuant to TSXV Policy 5.2.

At Mesa's option, prior to the closing of the Acquisition, Mesa may complete a spin-out transaction, pursuant to which it will directly or indirectly transfer its existing mineral and royalty assets to a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Mesa Subco"), and distribute the securities of Mesa Subco to Mesa's existing shareholders on a pro rata basis as a return of capital, a dividend, or pursuant to the terms of a plan of arrangement.

This news release includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking statements". All statements in this release, other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
