Item 5. Other Information.
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As previously disclosed in the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company entered into an Arrangement Agreement on May 11, 2022 (as amended, the “Arrangement Agreement”), with EHT, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of EHT (the “EHT Shares”) pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Acquisition”). The Supreme Court of British Columbia issued a final order approving the Acquisition on August 25, 2022. On November 7, 2022, EHT and the Company agreed to waive the mutual closing condition requiring the Company to obtain conditional approval from the Canadian Stock Exchange to list the common stock of the Company. The Acquisition was consummated on November 10, 2022 (the “Closing Date”).Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, on November 10, 2022, each share of EHT common stock (“EHT Shares”) outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Acquisition (the “Effective Time”) was transferred to the Company in exchange for 1.95 of a share (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Company common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”). In the aggregate, EHT shareholders received 416,270,514 shares of Company Common Stock (the “Consideration Shares”). The Exchange Ratio was agreed to on May 11, 2022 and was not adjusted for any subsequent changes in market price of the Company Common Stock or EHT Shares prior to the Closing Date. It is expected that, for U.S. and Canadian federal income tax purposes, the Acquisition shall constitute a taxable exchange by the EHT shareholders of EHT Shares for Company Common Stock.
In addition, at the Effective Time, (i) all EHT options to purchase EHT Shares (“EHT Options”) granted under EHT’s omnibus incentive plan that are outstanding as of the Effective Time, were exchanged into options to purchase shares of Company Common Stock, with the number of shares underlying each option (and the exercise price of such option) adjusted based on the Exchange Ratio, with the options retaining the same term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercise and other terms and conditions as the EHT Options (the “Replacement Options”) and (ii) each of the warrants to acquire EHT Shares (the “EHT Warrants”) were be exchanged into warrants to acquire Company Common Stock after adjustments to reflect the Acquisition and to account for the Exchange Ratio, with each warrant retaining the same term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercise and other terms and conditions of the EHT Warrants (the “Replacement Warrants”). In the aggregate, the Company issued 8,282,626 Replacement Options and 60,947,407 Replacement Warrants in connection with the Acquisition.
