Prospect Park Capital Calls AGM and Proposes Share Consolidation

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Prospect Park Capital Corp. (the “Company”) ‎‎(TSXV:PPK), announces today that it has called an annual general and special shareholders’ meeting (the “Meeting”) for March 11, 2020. At the Meeting, amongst other things, management of the Company will be seeking shareholder approval to consolidate the issued and outstanding common shares (the “Common Shares”) of the Company on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common Share for five (5) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the “Consolidation”), or such number of pre-consolidation shares as may be determined by the board of directors (the “Board”) or may be required to obtain approval of the Consolidation from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”). Additional information relating to the proposed Consolidation is included in the management information circular of the Company dated February 10, 2020 (the “Circular”), which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
The Company has posted the Circular with respect to the Meeting. As part of the Meeting, shareholders of the Company will be asked to pass a special resolution authorizing the Board, at a time it sees fit, to amend the Company’s articles to effect the Consolidation. There are currently 9,819,117 Common Shares issued and outstanding. If and upon the Consolidation becoming effective, on a maximum of one (1) to five (5) basis, it is expected there will be approximately 1,963,823 post-Consolidation Common Shares issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis (assuming no additional Common Shares are issued after the date hereof). The Board believes the Consolidation is necessary in order for the Company to more easily raise capital and attract business opportunities. The Board believes that at present, with the current corporate structure, it is extremely difficult, for the Company to raise capital and to proceed with the seeking of business opportunities. The Board, in its sole discretion, may revoke the resolution approving the Consolidation and abandon the Consolidation without further approval, action by, or prior notice to shareholders. The Consolidation is subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, including the approval of the Exchange.Registered shareholders are advised not to mail in the certificate(s) representing their Common Shares until they receive a letter of transmittal and confirmation from the Company by way of news release that the Board has decided to implement the Consolidation.The information in this news release includes certain information and statements about management’s view of future events, expectations, plans and prospects that constitute forward looking statements.
