WINNIPEG, Sept. 20, 2017 /CNW/ - Further to its press releases of August 9, 2017 and September 15, 2017, Buffalo Capital Inc. ("Buffalo" or the "Company") (TSXV: BUFF.P) announces that it has entered into an amending agreement (the "Amending Agreement") amending the terms of the amalgamation agreement dated August 8, 2017 (the "Amalgamation Agreement") between Buffalo and Waverley Pharma Inc. ("Waverley").
The Amending Agreement extends the outside date for the completion of certain matters contemplated in the Amalgamation Agreement from October 13, 2017 to October 31, 2017. The Company currently anticipates that the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Amalgamation Agreement, as amended by the Amending Agreement, will occur on or about October 18, 2017.

The Company wants to clarify that the Meeting is scheduled to take place on October 6, 2017 and not on October 8, 2017 as reflected in the September 15th Press Release.
