/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/
VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 24, 2021 /CNW/ - CareSpan Health, Inc. (formerly, Dynamo Capital Corp.) (TSXV: CSPN) (the "Company" or the "Resulting Issuer") is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced merger transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") resulting in the reverse takeover of the Company by CareSpan Holdings, Inc. ("CareSpan"), a private company incorporated under the laws of Delaware.
Subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), it is anticipated that the Resulting Issuer Shares (as defined herein) will commence trading on the Exchange under the ticker symbol "CSPN" on or about November 26, 2021.
The Transaction
Effective November 17, 2021, as a condition to the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, Dynamo Capital Corp. changed its name to "CareSpan Health, Inc." and consolidated its share capital (the "Consolidation") on the basis of 1 post-consolidation common share for every 4.66667 outstanding common shares existing immediately before the consolidation. Following the Consolidation, Dynamo Capital Corp. had an aggregate of 964,285 common shares issued and outstanding.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of a merger and plan of reorganization agreement, dated August 4, 2021, as amended on November 9, 2021 (the "Merger Agreement"), CareSpan completed a statutory triangular merger (the "Merger") under the General Corporation Law (Delaware) with Dynamo Subco, Inc. and all of the issued and outstanding securities of CareSpan were exchanged for securities (the "Securities Exchange") of the Resulting Issuer.
Further to Dynamo Capital Corp.'s news release dated August 5, 2021, concurrent with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, CareSpan raised aggregate gross proceeds in the amount of $2,297,947.40 ("CareSpan QT Financing") through the issuance of an aggregate of 3,282,782 subscription receipts of CareSpan ("Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.70 per Subscription Receipt. Concurrent with the closing of the Qualifying Transaction, the Subscription Receipts were converted into 3,282,782 common shares of Resulting Issuer Shares ("Resulting Issuer Shares") pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement between CareSpan, Canaccord Genuity Corp., and Computershare Trust Company of Canada dated August 5, 2021 (the "SR Agreement"). The escrowed proceeds from the CareSpan QT Financing were released on November 17, 2021, in accordance with the provisions of the SR Agreement.
In addition to the sale of Subscription Receipts, on August 5, 2021, CareSpan completed a non-brokered financing of common shares in the capital of CareSpan (the "QT Non-Brokered Financing") for gross proceeds of $1,283,494.10. The proceeds from the sale of the QT Non-Brokered Financing did not form part of the proceeds held in escrow but were made immediately available to CareSpan.
As a result of the completion of the Consolidation, the Securities Exchange and the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, the Resulting Issuer now has approximately 26,933,211 Resulting Issuer Shares issued and outstanding comprised of the following:
- 964,285 Resulting Issuer Shares issued to the previous shareholders of Dynamo Capital Corp.;
- 21,988,280 Resulting Issuer Shares issued to previous holders of common shares of CareSpan;
- 642,857 Resulting Issuer Shares issued to certain finders in connection with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction;
- 3,282,782 Resulting Issuer Shares issued to holders of the Subscription Receipts; and
- 55,007 Resulting Issuer Shares issued to Canaccord Genuity Corp. as agent pursuant to the CareSpan QT Financing.

Additionally, each of the directors and officers of CareSpan, certain former shareholders of CareSpan, and holders of certain CareSpan convertible debentures which convert into common shares of CareSpan at a 50% discount to the CareSpan QT Financing issue price, have entered into lock-up agreements, pursuant to which each has agreed to certain restrictions on their rights to transfer their securities of the Resulting Issuer for a period of six months after the completion of the Qualifying Transaction.
