Look Communications' Shareholders Approve the Previously Announced Proposed Change of Business and Concurrent $9 Million Private Placement at $0.14 per Share
/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES/
TORONTO, July 4, 2013 /CNW/ - Look Communications Inc. ("Look") (NEX: LOK.H and LOK.K) today announced that at a special meeting of shareholders held earlier today, Look's shareholders approved the previously announced change of business transaction and concurrent private placement.
As previously announced on March 26, 2013, Look entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which Look has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Sunwave Gas & Power Inc. ("Sunwave"), a privately-held provider of innovative energy commodity products and services based in Toronto, for aggregate consideration of $1 million. The consideration for the transaction will be satisfied through the issuance of 3,382,974 multiple voting shares and 3,759,883 subordinate voting shares in the capital of Look, each valued at $0.14 per share (the "Acquisition"). Concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, Look entered into subscription agreements (the "Subscription Agreements") with a group of sophisticated investors pursuant to which the investors will subscribe, on a private placement basis, for an aggregate of 30,446,767 multiple voting shares and 33,838,947 subordinate voting shares in the capital of Look at a price of $0.14 per share for aggregate subscription proceeds of $9 million (the "Private Placement" and, together with the Acquisition, the "Transactions").
At the meeting, Look's shareholders also approved a resolution authorizing Look to change its name to "ONEnergy Inc.", as well as a resolution ratifying Look's existing dual class share structure. Look's shareholders did not approve the resolution that would have permitted Look to reorganize existing dual class share structure into a single class of common shares (the "Capital Reorganization"). As a result, Look will not be proceeding with the Capital Reorganization and, accordingly, shareholders will not be entitled to exercise any dissent rights in connection with the Transactions.
Completion of the Transactions remains subject to a number of conditions, including the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). All of the terms and conditions of the Transactions are set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the form of Subscription Agreement, copies of which are available under Look's profile at www.sedar.com. Additional information regarding the Transactions and the businesses of Look and Sunwave is included in the information circular dated June 7, 2013 which was prepared in connection with the Transactions (the "Circular"), a copy of which is available under Look's profile at www.sedar.com.
In accordance with the policies of the Exchange, Look's multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares were halted from trading upon announcement of the Transactions, and will remain halted until after the completion of the Transactions.
