MCM Capital One Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ZGN.P) ("MCM"), a Capital Pool Company, wishes
to provide further details concerning the letter of intent (the "LOI") dated
October 3, 2013 for the acquisition of Enerdynamic Hybrid Technologies Inc.
("EHT"), previously announced on October 9, 2013. The acquisition, if completed,
will constitute MCM's qualifying transaction pursuant to the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange Inc. (the "Exchange").
The Proposed Qualifying Transaction
The acquisition of EHT (the "Acquisition") is to be completed no later than
January 31, 2014 as a share exchange through the issuance of one common share of
MCM for each common share of EHT, and one warrant to purchase an MCM common
share for each warrant to purchase an EHT common share. The exercise price and
term of the MCM warrants will be the same as those for the EHT warrants being
purchased.
It is a condition of closing the Acquisition that EHT will raise at least
$4,000,000 through the First Private Placement and the Second Private Placement
described below. Completion of the Acquisition is also conditional on the
execution of a definitive share exchange agreement to be negotiated among the
parties, the satisfactory completion of due diligence, approval of the
Acquisition by the directors of MCM and EHT, approval by the shareholders of MCM
of the name change and appointment of the directors described below and Exchange
acceptance of the Acquisition.
The acquisition by MCM of all of the issued and outstanding shares in the
capital of EHT is not a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction under the
policies of the Exchange. The Acquisition will not be subject to approval of the
shareholders of MCM. However, it is a condition of the Acquisition that the
shareholders of MCM shall have approved the appointment of the directors
described below and the change of MCM's name to Enerdynamic Hybrid Technologies
Corp. or such other name as EHT and MCM may agree upon.
EHT Capital Structure and Financing
EHT is conducting a brokered private placement (the "First Private Placement")
to raise up to $3,000,000 by issuance of units (the "First Placement Units") at
$0.25 per unit, each unit consisting of one EHT common share and one warrant (a
"First Placement Warrant"). Each First Placement Warrant will entitle the holder
to acquire one common share at a price of $0.50 per share at any time prior to
5:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the date that is 12 months (the "First
Anniversary") following the date on which the shares of EHT either (a) become
publicly traded on a recognized stock exchange, or (b) are exchanged for shares
in a corporation which are (or become in connection with such exchange) publicly
traded on a recognized stock exchange (in either case, the "IPO Date") and, at a
price of $0.75 per Share during the period following the First Anniversary and
ending at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the date that is 24 months
following the IPO Date. EHT has raised approximately $2,700,000 in the First
Private Placement and expects to complete the balance of the First Private
Placement.
EHT intends to conduct a second brokered private placement (the "Second Private
Placement") to raise up to $8,000,000 by issuance of units (the "Second
Placement Units") at $0.50 per unit, each unit consisting of one EHT common
share and one-half of a warrant (a "Second Placement Warrant"). Each whole
Second Placement Warrant is to be exercisable for one EHT common share at a
price of $1.00 for a period of 2 years following closing. The Second Private
Placement will close immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition.
A minimum of $4,000,000 must be raised as a condition of closing the
Acquisition. A maximum of $11,000,000 would be raised if both of those private
placements are fully sold. The proceeds of the First Private Placement and the
Second Private Placement will be used as follows:

Litigation Claim
On November 28th, 2013, Dynamic Systems Holdings Inc. ("DSHI") commenced an
action pursuant to a statement of claim issued in Toronto (Court File No.
CV-13-10345-00CL) against, among others, ESI, Tom Bryson, Pole-R Power Inc.
("PRP"), EHT, OSM and MCM, seeking relief which includes damages in the amount
of $30,000,000.00, the disgorgement of the Defendants' profits, and certain
other relief, including injunctive relief (the "Claim"). The Claim was amended
on December 16th, 2013 to add Allan Cruikshank as a defendant. The Claim
principally stems from certain alleged breaches under license agreements and
other contractual relations between ESI, Bryson and DSHI, the alleged
misappropriation by all of the defendants of information alleged to be
confidential and proprietary to DSHI, the alleged interference by all of the
defendants in the economic relations of DSHI and alleged negligence by the law
firm acting for ESI, PRP, Bryson and DSHI in connection with commercial
arrangements amongst those parties. On January 17th, 2014, ESI, Tom Bryson and
PRP filed a statement of defence and counterclaim denying the allegations
against them set forth in the Claim and, pursuant to the counterclaim, seeking
relief against DSHI and two of its principals, Allen Scott and Angelo Carlucci,
which includes $30,000,000.00 in damages and declarations that certain of the
license agreements and other commercial agreements are of no force or effect.
Also on January 17th, 2014, EHT and OSM filed a statement of defence in which
they denied the allegations against them in the Claim.
Tom Bryson, the President of ESI, when asked about the litigation stated "I do
not believe there is any merit to the claim brought by the plaintiffs and I'm
confident that the defendants will be able to successfully defend this claim".
