Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 3, 2020) – Buckhaven Capital Corp. (TSXV: BKH.P) (the “Corporation” or “Buckhaven“), 1271860 B.C. Ltd. (“Buckhaven Subco“), 1254688 B.C. Ltd. (“125“), and Ag-Mining Investments, AB (“Ag-Mining“) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a master agreement dated October 30, 2020 (the “Master Agreement“), which sets forth the terms and conditions upon which 125 will acquire Buckhaven by way of reverse takeover (the “Proposed Transaction“) in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV“). Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the combined entity (the “Resulting Issuer“) will continue to carry on the business of 125. It is intended that the Proposed Transaction, when completed, will constitute the “Qualifying Transaction” of Buckhaven pursuant to Policy 2.4 – Capital Pool Companies of the TSXV Corporate Finance Manual (“Policy 2.4“).
Buckhaven and 125 will provide further details in respect of the Proposed Transaction in due course and will make available all information, including financial information as required by the TSXV and will provide, in a comprehensive press release to be disseminated at a later date, the required disclosure pursuant to Section 12.2 of Policy 2.4. Buckhaven and 125 continue to work on the necessary disclosure documents in connection with the Qualifying Transaction.
The Proposed Transaction
Under the terms of the Master Agreement, the Proposed Transaction will be completed by way of a three-cornered amalgamation pursuant to the laws of British Columbia, whereby Buckhaven Subco will amalgamate with 125 forming a combined entity (“Amalco“), with Amalco being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Buckhaven. Immediately prior to or concurrently with closing of the Proposed Transaction, Buckhaven is expected to consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares (the “Buckhaven Shares“) on a 1.5 to 1 basis such that each holder of Buckhaven Shares shall be entitled to 1 post-consolidation Buckhaven Share for every 1.5 Buckhaven Shares held prior to such consolidation (the “Consolidation“) with the same effect upon each of the options and warrants of Buckhaven, and Buckhaven shall change its name to such name as determined by 125. Following the completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will have 100% ownership of Amalco and the Resulting Issuer will conduct the business of 125 under such name as determined by 125. Additional terms of the Proposed Transaction were previously disclosed in the press release of Buckhaven dated August 18, 2020, available under the Corporation’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
Pursuant to the terms of the Master Agreement, completion of the Proposed Transaction will be subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to, closing conditions customary to transactions of the nature of the Proposed Transaction, completion or waiver of sponsorship, requisite shareholder and director approvals as may be required, approvals of all regulatory bodies having jurisdiction in connection with the Proposed Transaction, and approval of the TSXV including the satisfaction of its initial listing requirements. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.
A filing statement will be prepared and filed in accordance with the policies of the TSXV.
Concurrent Financing
Closing of the Proposed Transaction is conditional upon, among other things, 125 completing a brokered private placement of subscription receipts of 125 at a price per subscription receipt as determined by Sprott Capital Partners LP as the lead agent and 125, and on such other terms as Buckhaven and 125 may mutually agree (the “Concurrent Financing“). The details of the Concurrent Financing are currently being negotiated and further information regarding the Concurrent Financing will be provided in a press release, once available, at a later date.
Trading Halt
The Buckhaven Shares are currently halted from trading, and the trading of Buckhaven Shares is expected to remain halted pending completion of the Proposed Transaction.
Additional Information

Where applicable, the Proposed Transaction cannot close until the required shareholder approvals are obtained and there can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.
