Sunniva Announces Amendment Of Performance Warrants

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 16, 2019 /CNW/ — Sunniva Inc. (“Sunniva” or the “Company”) (CSE:SNN) (OTCQB:SNNVF), a North American provider of cannabis products and services, announces that it is amending the terms of the 718,249 performance warrants (the “Performance Warrants”) issued in conjunction with the acquisition of LTYR Logistics, LLC (“LTYR”) on December 31, 2018. The Performance Warrants are convertible into 718,249 common shares of the Company (“Performance Shares”) upon the satisfaction of certain operational milestones (the “Milestones”).

The Performance Warrants will be amended by replacing the original Milestone of opening a distribution business at the Company’s facility in Long Beach, California with the opening of a distribution business at the Company’s facility in Coachella, California. Upon amendment of the Performance Warrants, the Milestones will be satisfied and the Company will convert the Performance Warrants into Performance Shares.

The amendment of the 239,491 Performance Warrants held by Mr. Kevin Wilkerson, President of the Company and the former CEO of LTYR, is considered to be a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration from, the amendment of the Performance Warrants held by Mr. Wilkerson, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
