TORONTO and GLIL YAM,
Israel, July 5, 2024 /CNW/ -- IM Cannabis Corp. (CSE:
IMCC) (NASDAQ: IMCC) (the "Company", "IM Cannabis",
or "IMC"), a leading medical cannabis company with
operations in Israel and
Germany, announces that the board of directors of the Company
(the "Board") has approved a consolidation of its issued and
outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") on the basis of
one post-consolidated Common Share for every six pre-consolidated
Common Shares (the "Consolidation").
The Board has set July 12, 2024 as
the effective date of the Consolidation and anticipates the Common
Shares to trade on a post-consolidated basis effective July 12, 2024, subject to final confirmation from
the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") and Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC (the "NASDAQ"). Upon the competition of the
Consolidation, the CUSIP and ISIN of the Common Shares will be
changed to 44969Q406 and CA44969Q4060, respectively. The Company's
name and stock symbols shall remain unchanged.
After giving effect to the Consolidation, the Common Shares will
be reduced from 13,394,136 to 2,232,357 Common Shares. No
fractional Common Shares will be issued in connection with the
Consolidation. Instead, all fractional Common Shares equal to or
greater than one-half resulting from the Consolidation will be
rounded to the next whole number, otherwise, the fractional Common
Share will be cancelled. The exercise price and/or conversion price
and number of Common Shares issuable under any of the Company's
outstanding convertible securities will be proportionately adjusted
in connection with the Consolidation.
Shareholders of record as of the effective date will receive a
letter of transmittal from Computershare Investor Services Inc.,
the Company's registrar and transfer agent for the Common Shares,
providing instructions for the exchange of their Common Shares as
soon as practicable following the effective date. Registered
shareholders may also obtain a copy of the letter of transmittal by
accessing the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca. Until
surrendered, each share certificate or direct registration system
statement representing pre-consolidated Common Shares will
represent the number of whole post-consolidated Common Shares to
which the holder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation. No
action is required by beneficial holders to receive
post-consolidation Common Shares in connection with the
Consolidation. Beneficial holders who hold their Common Shares
through intermediaries (e.g., a broker, bank, trust company
investment dealer or other financial institution) and who have
questions regarding how the Consolidation will be processed should
contact their intermediaries with respect to the Consolidation.
