(the Company) (CSE: FXC) is issuing this press release to confirm and provide further details regarding the intended timing for the Share Consolidation and Offering, each as previously disclosed in the Company’s final prospectus dated October 18, 2019 (the Prospectus) and the press release issued that same date.
Pursuant to the Offering, the Company proposes to issue to the public up to 33,333,333 units of the Company (Units) at a price of $4.50. Each Unit consists of one post-consolidation Subordinate Voting Share of the Company and a Subordinate Voting Share purchase warrant (the Founder Warrants).

On the business day prior to the closing the Offering, the Company will consolidate (the Share Consolidation) its outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares (the Pre-Consolidation Subordinate Voting Shares) and Multiple Voting Shares (the Pre-Consolidation Multiple Voting Shares) on the basis of one post-consolidation Subordinate Voting Share for each five Pre-Consolidation Subordinate Voting Shares and one post-consolidation Multiple Voting Share for each five Pre-Consolidation Multiple Voting Shares.
As of the date hereof, there are an aggregate of 2,495,536 Pre-Consolidation Subordinate Voting Shares and 1,501,502 Pre-Consolidation Multiple Voting Shares issued and outstanding. Accordingly, as a result of the Consolidation, immediately after the Consolidation and prior to the closing of the Offering and the Substantial Equity Investment (as defined in the Prospectus), there will be 499,107 Subordinate Voting Shares and 300,300 Multiple Voting Shares issued and outstanding.
The Offering is expected to close on or about November 21, 2019. Assuming a November 21st closing date, it is anticipated that the Canadian Securities Exchange will issue a bulletin on November 18, 2019 confirming that the Subordinate Voting Shares will trade on a consolidated basis on November 19, 2019.
