Halo Labs Inc. (formerly Apogee Opportunities Inc.) (“Halo” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has completed its arm’s length business combination with ANM, Inc. (“ANM“), pursuant to which Halo acquired all of the issued and outstanding securities of ANM (the “Transaction“), as well as the conversion of the subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipts”) issued by Apogee Opportunities (USA) Inc. (“Subco”) and the special units issued by Halo (the “Special Units” and together with the Subscription Receipts, the “Offered Securities”) issued by Halo in connection with the previously announced $12.9 million brokered private placement co-led by Canaccord Genuity Corp., Clarus Securities Inc. and Gravitas Securities Inc. (the “Private Placement”) .

Halo effected the closing of the Transaction pursuant to a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement“) among Halo, Subco and ANM, pursuant to which Halo acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of ANM common stock by way of a reverse triangular merger between Subco and ANM, following which the merged company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halo. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of ANM common stock was exchanged for 1.35 common shares of Halo (“Halo Shares”), as more particularly described in the Merger Agreement, such that former shareholders of ANM continued as shareholders of Halo. As a result, 112,514,996 Halo Shares were issued by Halo to former ANM shareholders (inclusive of shareholders of ANM who participated in a regulated offering that raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately US$9.7 million and that occurred contemporaneously with the Private Placement). In addition, an aggregate of 32,658,735 Halo Shares and 32,658,735 common share purchase warrants (“Warrants”) were issued following conversion of the Offered Securities and completion of the Transaction. Each Warrant is exercisable for one Halo Share at a price of $0.80 until December 31, 2020.

Upon closing the Transaction, Halo has an aggregate of 158,107,872 Halo Shares and 133,781,986 common share purchase warrants (including the Warrants) issued and outstanding. The average exercise price of the outstanding common share purchase warrants is $0.75 for an aggregate exercise price of approximately $101 million.

Upon closing of the Transaction, the board of directors of Halo consists of Fred Leigh, Andreas Met, Peter McRae, G. Scott Paterson, Kiran Sidhu, and Philip van den Berg. Halo’s officers are Kiran Sidhu as Chief Executive Officer, Philip van den Berg as Chief Financial Officer and Andreas Met as Chief Operating and Compliance Officer.

The Transaction, including the listing of the Halo Shares, received the final approval of Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc. (the “Exchange“) on September 28, 2018. It is anticipated that trading in the Halo Shares will commence on the Exchange on October 3, 2018.

“We at HALO are excited about listing on the NEO, beginning this next part of our journey, and will do everything we possibly can to maximize shareholder value. In addition to going public, we are expanding rapidly in Nevada and California and are expecting to commence generating revenue in these markets this quarter.” said Kiran Sidhu, Halo’s Chief Executive Office.
