A-Labs Capital II Corp. (the “
Company”) (TSX-V:
ALAB.P) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter of
intent (the “
LOI”) dated October 1, 2020 with
RDARS Inc. (“
RDARS”). Pursuant to the LOI, the
Company and RDARS have agreed to a proposed acquisition (the
“
Transaction”) by the Company of 100% of the
issued and outstanding securities of RDARS in exchange for the
issuance of securities of the Company. The Transaction is intended
to constitute the Company’s Qualifying Transaction under Policy 2.4
– Capital Pool Companies of the TSXV Venture Exchange (the
“
Exchange”).
About
RDARS
RDARS is a private corporation incorporated
under the laws of the province of Ontario. Its primary business is
the development and sale of its proprietary autonomous drone
technology solution for the residential and small commercial
security space. RDARS has created a fully autonomous
“drone-in-a-box” and drone solution for real time alarm response,
verification, and both autonomous and manual flight intervention.
The drone technology is integrated into the properties security
systems and is deployed autonomously upon a security breach. The
drone system provides real-time data of the subject property and
surroundings, and is transmitted in real time to the RDARS command
& control center, in tandem with a security monitoring
apparatus, that will dispatch authorities if necessary. The data
can then be re-transmitted also in real time to the Public Safety
Authorities providing an advance situation awareness for better
preparedness and personnel safety upon approaching the property.
RDARS is currently in discussions with the Federal Aviation
Administration of the United States regarding the integration and
standardization of the drone technology, and the Aircraft
Worthiness Certifications and Drone Operational Certifications.
RDARS expects to obtain regulatory approval for commercial usage by
the end of first quarter 2021.
Transaction Terms
Pursuant to the LOI, the parties will negotiate
a definitive agreement (the “Definitive
Agreement”) providing for the definitive terms of the
Transaction. Other than certain provisions, including
confidentiality and standstill provisions, the LOI is non-binding
and is subject to the entering into of the Definitive Agreement.
Either party may terminate the LOI if, among other things, the
Definitive Agreement has not been entered into by November 16,
2020.
The parties intend to complete a business
combination – the structure of which will be determined after
receiving tax, legal and other advice – whereby the Company will
acquire all of the securities of RDARS that are issued and
outstanding immediately prior to completion of the Transaction in
exchange for the issuance of securities to RDARS securityholders in
accordance with an agreed upon exchange ratio taking into account
the respective valuations of the parties (the “Exchange
Ratio”).
The parties have agreed that the Transaction
will proceed based on a deemed price per common share of the
Company of approximately C$0.14035, before taking into account the
proposed Consolidation (as defined below), subject to a downward
adjustment to the deemed price per share in the event that the
Company’s working capital at closing of the Transaction is less
than C$50,000. The aggregate share consideration payable by the
Company pursuant to the Transaction will be based upon the
valuation of RDARS, on a partially-diluted basis (including the
Bridge Financing on an as is converted basis, as defined below, but
excluding any other convertible securities), pursuant to the
Concurrent Financing (as defined below) on a pre-money basis.
Accordingly, if the Transaction is completed,
the common shareholders of RDARS will each receive, for every one
(1) RDARS common share (“RDARS
Share”) held immediately prior to the completion
of the Transaction, such number of post-Consolidation common shares
of the Company based on the Exchange Ratio. Furthermore, in
connection with closing, the convertible securities of RDARS
outstanding immediately prior to closing will either automatically
adjust in accordance with their terms or will be replaced with
equivalent convertible securities of the Company, with necessary
adjustment to number and price to account for the Exchange
Ratio.
On closing of the Transaction, the business of
the Company will be the business of RDARS, and, therefore, the
Company is expected to operate in the Technology and Innovation or
Diversified Industries sectors as defined by the Exchange.
Financings
Prior to the closing of the Transaction, RDARS
proposes to complete: (i) a bridge financing of up to C$1,000,000
(the “Bridge Financing”); and (ii) a concurrent
financing of a minimum of C$1,000,000 (the “Concurrent
Financing”). The Bridge Financing is expected to involve
the issuance of convertible securities of RDARS with each such
security automatically convertible into RDARS Shares immediately
prior to closing of the Transaction, at a price per RDARS Share
equal to a lesser of (i) 20% discount to the price per RDARS Share
in the Concurrent Financing; or (ii) a valuation of RDARS being
C$10,000,000 on a non-diluted basis and not inclusive of the
Concurrent Financing. The terms of the Concurrent Financing will be
determined in the context of the market. Further terms of the
Bridge Financing and the Concurrent Financing, including any
proposed payment of broker or advisory fees, will be announced in a
subsequent press release and/or the Filing Statement.
Proposed Consolidation and
Name Change
The common shares of the Company are expected to
be consolidated prior to closing of the Transaction at a ratio to
be determined by the parties in the context of the Transaction (the
“Consolidation”). Upon completion of the
Transaction, the Company will change its name to such name to be
determined by RDARS Additional information regarding the proposed
Consolidation and name change will be provided at a later date.
Proposed Directors and
Officers of the Resulting Issuer
In connection with closing of the Transaction,
it is expected that the current directors and officers of the
Company will resign from their respective positions and the board
will be reconstituted with five directors who shall be nominated by
RDARS. Information and biographies regarding the incoming directors
and officers will be provided at a later date.
Sponsorship
The Company will seek a waiver from the Exchange
to the requirement to engage a sponsor in connection with the
Transaction. If a sponsor is required, the Company will identify a
sponsor and pay the sponsorship fee in cash or common shares of the
Company or a combination of cash and common shares of the Company.
An agreement with a sponsor should not be construed as any
assurance with respect to the merits of the Transaction or the
likelihood of completion.
Trading Halt
In accordance with Exchange policies, the common
shares of the Company are halted from trading and will remain so
until certain documentation required by the Exchange for the
Transaction can be provided to the Exchange. The common shares of
the Company may resume trading following the Exchange's review of
the required documentation or may remain halted until completion of
the Transaction.
Conditions to Closing the Transaction
Closing of the Transaction is conditional upon,
among other things, receipt of all required regulatory, corporate,
and third party approvals, including Exchange approval, the
negotiation and execution of the Definitive Agreement, satisfactory
due diligence by both the Company and RDARS, no material adverse
change having occurred to the assets or share capital of either the
Company or RDARS, completion of the Bridge Financing and Concurrent
Financing, and, if required by the Exchange, filing of a
sponsorship report with the Exchange. There can be no assurance
that the Transaction will be completed on the terms proposed above
or at all.
The Transaction is an Arm’s Length Qualifying
Transaction, as defined in the policies of the Exchange, and is
therefore not ordinarily subject to shareholder approval by the
Company’s shareholders. The Company may seek shareholder approval
for special matters in connection with the Transaction, to the
extent required by applicable law or as deemed advisable by the
parties.
