Sunniva Announces Sanctioning Of CCAA Plan by Supreme Court of British Columbia
VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 16, 2021 /CNW/ - Sunniva Inc. ("Sunniva", the "Company") (CSE: SNN) (OTC Pink Sheets: SNNVF) is pleased to announce that the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court") sanctioned the Amended Consolidated Plan of Arrangement and Compromise of Sunniva and its Canadian subsidiaries (the "Plan") under the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act ("CCAA") on February 12, 2021. The Court has also relieved Sunniva and its Canadian subsidiaries of certain restrictions imposed by orders granted on November 27, 2020 and December 11, 2020, permitting Sunniva to take immediate action to protect its US assets and interests.
Implementation of the Plan is subject to, among other things, the partial revocation of the Cease Trade Order (as defined below) to permit the issuance of common shares in connection with a debt-to-equity conversion contemplated under the Plan, and the fulfilment or waiver of certain other conditions more particularly set out in the Plan.
In accordance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"), in connection with the CCAA proceedings, the CSE will be reviewing the continued listing of the common shares of the Company. The common shares of the Company have been subject to a cease trade order since June 22, 2020 for failure to file certain financial documents (the "Cease Trade Order"). Trading of the shares will continue to be suspended until the CCAA process has been completed and the Cease Trade Order has been fully revoked.
