TORONTO, ON / February 9, 2023 / GHP Noetic Science-Psychedelic Pharma Inc. (TSXV:PSYF.P) (“GHP“) and Xcyte Digital Corp. (“Xcyte“, together with GHP, the “Parties“) are pleased to announce the signing of a letter of intent dated effective February 6, 2023 (the “LOI“). The LOI sets out the general terms and conditions pursuant to which GHP has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Xcyte in exchange for securities of GHP (the “Transaction“).

The Transaction will result in a reverse takeover of GHP by Xcyte, and will constitute GHPs “Qualifying Transaction” as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange“). GHP and Xcyte are at arm’s length and the Transaction will not be a non-arm’s length transaction under the policies of the Exchange. On closing of the Transaction (the “Closing“), it is expected that GHP (being, following the Closing, the “Resulting Issuer“), will be listed as a Tier 2 Technology Issuer on the Exchange, and its business will be that of Xcyte.

About GHP

GHP is a Capital Pool Company (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) led by Paul Barbeau (Chief Executive Officer) and Warren Wright (Chief Financial Officer). Its principal business activity is to identify and evaluate opportunities to acquire assets or a business. Incorporated in 2020 under the laws of the Province of Ontario, GHP is a reporting issuer in the Provinces of Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta. Its common shares (each, a “GHP Share“) are listed for trading on the Exchange under the symbol PSYF.P.

About Xcyte

Xcyte was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on February 18, 2022. Xcyte is an event technology aggregator and developer which provides technology and support services to its clients in order to facilitate virtual and hybrid events. Xcyte provides high-value, cost-effective, multi-platform subscription services for virtual and hybrid events, metaverse solutions, digital marketing and lead generation. Xcyte has an extensive portfolio of technologies that enables it to leverage the right features and provide customized solutions to accommodate its clients’ unique needs.

Xcyte was created to take advantage of the increased demand by businesses for virtual events, which Xcyte management believes is currently the largest application of the metaverse outside of gaming. Xcyte is an amalgamation of several assets which have produced over 100,000 virtual events for more than 2,000 clients to date. In October 2022, Xcyte produced the very first business-to-business conference and expo entirely in the metaverse.

Terms of the Transaction

The Transaction is expected to proceed by way of a reverse takeover or such other structure as may be determined by the Parties, pursuant to which GHP will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Xcyte (each, a “Xcyte Security“).

Prior to the Closing, it is expected that the issued and outstanding GHP Shares will be consolidated (the “Consolidation“) on the approximate basis of one post-Consolidation GHP Share for each 1.25 pre-Consolidation GHP Shares, or such other ratio as may be determined by the Parties. GHP may also complete an internal reorganization of its share capital to facilitate tax considerations in connection with the structuring of the Transaction.

As contemplated in the LOI, at Closing, GHP will issue such number of post-Consolidation GHP Shares (or other applicable GHP securities following any internal capital reorganization) to the holders of the Xcyte Securities as have an aggregate value of $14,750,000, based on a deemed price of $0.25 per post-Consolidation GHP Share, or such other deemed price per share as may be determined by the Parties.

Completion of the Transaction will be subject to various conditions, including: the Parties entering into a definitive agreement with respect to the Transaction (the “Definitive Agreement“); the Parties obtaining all required directors’, shareholders’, regulatory and third-party consents for the Transaction, including the conditional approval of the Exchange; completion of the Private Placement (as defined below); completion of the Consolidation; compliance with applicable listing requirements of the Exchange; and such other conditions as agreed to by the Parties. Each party to the Transaction will be responsible for and bear all of its own costs and expenses (including any finder’s fees) incurred at any time in connection with pursuing or consummating the Transaction and the Private Placement.

As the Transaction is not a non-arm’s length transaction under the policies of the Exchange, GHP is not required to obtain shareholder approval for the Transaction. However, GHP intends to hold a special meeting of shareholders to approve certain matters ancillary to the Transaction, which may include, among other things: a reorganization of GHP’s share capital; the Consolidation; the adoption of a new omnibus equity incentive plan and amendments to GHP’s articles.

Upon completion of the Transaction, Xcyte will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Resulting Issuer, and the Resulting Issuer will change its name to “Xcyte Digital Corporation” or such other name as may be determined by the Parties and will continue with the business of Xcyte.

The final structure of the Transaction, including any internal reorganization required by GHP and/or Xcyte, will be determined after the Parties have considered applicable tax, securities and accounting matters.

Certain of the GHP Shares to be issued to holders of Xcyte Securities pursuant to the Transaction, including up to 100% of the GHP securities to be issued to Principals (as defined in the policies of the Exchange), may also be subject to escrow provisions imposed pursuant to the policies of the Exchange.

Proposed Private Placement

Prior to the Closing, GHP is expected to undertake a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $4,200,000 (the “Private Placement“), or such other amount as may be determined by the Parties, on terms to be determined in the context of the market. Additional information with respect to the Private Placement will be disclosed in a subsequent news release.

None of the securities to be issued in connection with the Transaction or the Private Placement will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act“), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to any U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration is available. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in any jurisdiction where such offer or solicitation would be unlawful, including the United States.
