Canada NewsWire

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./

TORONTO, June 5, 2018 /CNW/ - 48North Cannabis Corp. (formerly Kramer Capital Corp., the "Company" or "48North") (TSXV: NRTH) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding securities of 2558107 Ontario Inc. (formerly 48North Cannabis Inc., "48North PrivateCo") by way of a "three-cornered" statutory amalgamation of 48North PrivateCo and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Acquisition"). The Company will carry on the medical cannabis business of 48North PrivateCo following completion of the Acquisition. 

Immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition, the Company completed a consolidation of its common shares (the "Consolidation") on the basis of two (2) pre-Consolidation common shares to one (1) post-Consolidation common share (each post-Consolidation common share, a "Common Share"), changed its name from "Kramer Capital Corp." to "48North Cannabis Corp.", and continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act.

The issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of 48North PrivateCo (the "Target Shares") were cancelled and replaced with Common Shares, on the basis that each Target Share entitled the holder thereof to receive one Common Share. Convertible securities of 48North PrivateCo will be exchanged for economically equivalent securities of the Company.

The Acquisition constitutes a Qualifying Transaction within the meaning of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") policies. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company has filed a filing statement dated May 28, 2018 (the "Filing Statement"). More information about the Acquisition, as well as additional disclosure about 48North, can be obtained from the Company's Filing Statement filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Conversion of Debentures

Pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated January 26, 2018 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), among the Company, 48North PrivateCo, and Eight Capital (the "Underwriter"), the Underwriter agreed to act as sole underwriter to the Company to arrange for a sale of 16,010 convertible debenture units (the "Convertible Debenture Units") at a price of $1,000 per Convertible Debenture Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $16,010,000 (the "Concurrent Financing").

Pursuant to the Concurrent Financing, each Convertible Debenture Unit was comprised of one convertible debenture with a principal amount of $1,000 of 48North PrivateCo (each a "Convertible Debenture") and 556 warrants of 48North PrivateCo (each a "Unit Warrant"). 

Immediately prior to the completion of the Acquisition, the Convertible Debentures automatically converted into Common Shares at a price of $0.90 per Common Share.

Each Unit Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share of the Company at a price of $1.15 for a period of 24 months following the completion of the Acquisition.  

Board of Directors

The board of directors of 48North consists of Alison Gordon, William J. Assini, Martin Cauchon, Anne Darche, Alain Dubuc, and James Gervais (the "Board of Directors"). Management of 48North consists of Alison Gordon (CEO), David Hackett (CFO), Kevin Helfand (COO) and Kristen Gauthier (VP, Marketing). Select biographical details regarding the Board of Directors and management can be found in the Filing Statement.

Listing

The Company has obtained final approval to list its common shares on the TSXV as a Tier 1 Industrial or Life Sciences Issuer. The common shares are expected to begin trading on the TSXV at the opening of markets on or about June 11, 2018 under the symbol "NRTH".
