TORONTO, June 17, 2020 /CNW/ - Michael Andlauer, Chief Executive Officer of Andlauer Healthcare Group Inc.

The sale is expected to be completed on June 23, 2020 pursuant to a number of private agreements at a price of $32.00 per Subordinate Voting Share for an aggregate purchase price of $16,256,000.
The proceeds of the sale will be used by the Employee Trust to facilitate distributions from the Employee Trust to its beneficiaries, and to settle obligations to the Company incurred in connection with the formation of the Employee Trust (as disclosed in the Company's IPO prospectus dated December 4, 2019), with the goal of simplifying the Employee Trust structure moving forward. Neither Michael Andlauer nor Andlauer Management Group Inc. ("AMG"), a private corporation owned and controlled by Michael Andlauer, will receive any proceeds from the sale.
As a trustee of the Employee Trust, Michael Andlauer may be considered to have shared control over the Subordinate Voting Shares held by the Employee Trust. The Employee Trust currently holds 925,000 Subordinate Voting Shares (representing 7.4% of the issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares), and following the sale, the Employee Trust will hold 417,000 Subordinate Voting Shares (representing approximately 3.3% of the issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares).
At all times since the IPO, AMG has continued to own 75,000 Subordinate Voting Shares (representing 0.6% of the issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares), which it intends to transfer to select independent owner-operators engaged by the Company, and all of the 25,100,000 issued and outstanding multiple voting shares in the capital of the Company (the "Multiple Voting Shares" and together with the Subordinate Voting Shares, the "Shares"). Together, this represents approximately 67.0% of the issued and outstanding Shares and approximately 89.0% of the voting power attached to all of the Shares, in each case exclusive of the Subordinate Voting Shares held by the Employee Trust. The Multiple Voting Shares are being held for investment purposes and AMG's position may be increased or decreased as considered appropriate in light of investment criteria, market conditions and other factors and in accordance with the provisions of applicable securities legislation.
