TORONTO, Sept. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LeadFX Inc. (“LeadFX” or the “Company”): This press release is being disseminated as required by National Instrument 62-103 The Early Warning System and Related Take Over Bids and Insider Reporting Issues in connection with the acquisition of securities of the Company by InCoR Energy Materials Limited (the “Acquiror”, together with InCoR Technologies limited “InCoR”).

The Acquiror announces that, on September 28, 2018, it exercised warrants to acquire 5,750,000 common shares of the Company. The exercise of the warrants was triggered by the receipt of required environmental approvals as publicly disclosed by the Company on September 25, 2018.

Prior to the transaction, InCoR held 30,949,483 common shares representing approximately 42.25% of the issued and outstanding common shares (assuming no exercise of warrants) and 5,879,131 warrants exercisable into 5,879,131 common shares, together representing approximately 46.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares (assuming full exercise of all warrants held by InCoR).

After giving effect to the acquisition of 5,750,000 common shares pursuant this exercise of warrants, InCoR owns an aggregate of 36,699,483 common shares in the capital of the Company representing approximately 46.4% of the outstanding common shares (assuming no exercise of warrants), and warrants to acquire up to an additional 129,131 common shares. Assuming InCoR exercised its warrants, InCoR would own an aggregate of 36,828,614 Common Shares of the Issuer representing approximately 46.5% of the outstanding Common Shares (assuming no exercise of any other warrants).

The common shares were acquired on exercise of warrants previously issued on a private placement basis by InCoR for investment purposes and InCoR may, depending on market and other conditions, increase or change its beneficial ownership over the common shares or other securities of the Company through market transactions, private agreements, treasury issuances, exercise of convertible securities or otherwise.

There is a proposed “go private” transaction of the Company, to be implemented under a statutory plan of arrangement, in which InCoR and Sentient Executive GP I, Limited, Sentient (Aust.) Pty Ltd, Sentient Executive GP II, Limited, Sentient Trustees PTC Limited, Sentient Executive GP III, Limited and Sentient Executive GP IV, Limited (collectively, “Sentient”) are involved, which includes a share consolidation, the acquisition by the Company of the fractional post-consolidation common shares, the cancellation of all outstanding options to acquire common shares, the cancellation of unexercised common share purchase warrants and the cancellation of all performance share units to acquire common shares of the Company, with certain exceptions, as further detailed in the Company’s press releases issued as of July 23, 2018 and August 10, 2018 (the “Arrangement”).

Assuming the full completion of the Arrangement, substantially in the form as disclosed by the Company and briefly described above, the common shares of the Company would be delisted from the TSX, and it is anticipated that the Company would apply to cease to be a reporting issuer in Canada.

As a result of the Arrangement, InCoR, together with Sentient Executive GP III, Limited and Sentient Executive GP IV, Limited, would own 100% of the common shares of the Company.
