SAINT LAURENT, Quebec, Nov. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — IntelGenx Technologies Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (“IntelGenx” or the “Company”) wishes to remind its shareholders of record as of October 2, 2023 (the “Shareholders”) of the importance of a vote FOR the various proposals detailed below at the upcoming special meeting of Shareholders to be held on November 28, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”) as a virtual meeting only.
At the Special Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to vote:
IntelGenx wishes to inform that the Company has been advised that the Autorité des marchés financiers (“AMF”) considers the Financing Transactions are subject to the minority vote prescribed by Regulation 61-101 respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. Therefore, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting, excluding the votes attached to the Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by atai will effectively be required to approve the Financing Transactions. As explained in the Proxy Statement, the Financing Transactions are, by their terms, cross-conditional and require that the Company obtain each of the Pricing Shareholder Approval, the General Shareholder Approval and the Insider Shareholder Approval.
Should the Company fail to obtain any of these approvals, (i) at the request of the AMF, atai has undertaken not to exercise its rights to conversion of the principal outstanding under the Loan Agreement into Shares and to payment of Interest accrued and outstanding under the Second Loan Agreement in Shares, (ii) the Company would be proscribed to proceed with the portions of the Financing Transactions which have not already been completed, namely the Call Option and the Subsequent atai Subscription (each defined in the Proxy Statement), and (iii) the Company would be deemed in default of its obligations under the Loan Amendment, the Second Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Subscription Agreement Amendment and the Warrants (each as defined in the Proxy Statement).
As set out in the Proxy Statement, the board of directors of IntelGenx believes the Financing Transactions are in the best interest of the Company and unanimously recommends that the Shareholders vote “FOR” all matters put to a vote at the Special Meeting.
Copies of the Proxy Statement and related documents are available at https://annualgeneralmeetings.com/igxtsp2023, on SEDAR+ under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca and under the Company’s profile on EDGAR at sec.gov. The Proxy Statement contains important information, including a description of the Financing Transactions and of the matters put to a vote with respect to such Financing Transactions. IntelGenx strongly encourages all Shareholders who would like to attend, participate and/or vote virtually online to carefully follow the procedures outlined in the Proxy Statement.
Shareholders who have questions regarding the Financing Transactions or require assistance with voting may contact the Company’s proxy solicitation agent, Innisfree M&A Incorporated toll free at (877) 800-5194.
