As I understand, once regulators are satisfied shares become trade-able and transferred to new exchange (if relevant) at that time.

This board is good if you want an informed opinion and they would be happy to reply;

First fully integrated CBD company debuts as new era of legalized hemp begins

OTTAWA, Dec. 13, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - As the U.S. comes closer to ending decades of hemp prohibition, LiveWell Canada Inc. ("LiveWell" or the "Company") (CSE: LVWL) and Vitality CBD Natural Health Products Inc. ("Vitality") move closer to becoming a fully integrated cannabidiol (CBD) leader.

Logo: LiveWell Canada (Groupe CNW/LiveWell Canada inc.) (CNW Group/LiveWell Canada Inc.)

On Wednesday, December 12, 2018, the U.S. Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018, also known as the 2018 Farm Bill, was passed by the U.S. Congress. The 2018 Farm Bill legalizes hemp and removes it from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). CBD and other cannabinoid products extracted from hemp are also removed from the CSA. The bill must still be signed by President Trump, who has signalled support.

While individual states can impose their own restrictions on the sale of hemp products, the measure allows for interstate commerce. Further, with the removal of hemp from the CSA, legal commentators say the Drug Enforcement Administration would no longer be able to interfere in interstate commerce of hemp products. This would pave the way for federally regulated institutions such as banks, credit card companies and e-commerce platforms to conduct hemp business without barriers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will continue to oversee ingestible and topical hemp products and has yet to weigh in with any binding statements.

According to the Brightfield Group, the North American market for hemp CBD could reach US$22 billion by 2022. LiveWell and Vitality will be well-positioned to capitalize on the emerging CBD market.

Following their binding letter of agreement to merge as announced on December 3, 2018, the combined companies (Merger Co) today announced that key executives and shareholders from both organizations have entered into Lock-Up Agreements in support of the Merger.

Holders of 60% of the common shares of Vitality and 29% of the common shares of LiveWell have agreed to exercise all rights in support of the Merger, including to vote in favour of the merger. This agreement continues until the earlier of the closing of the Merger or 6 months. The Merger is expected to close in March 2019.

"This is confirmation of our transformation to a global CBD life sciences company," said David Rendimonti, President and CEO of LiveWell Canada. "That this is occurring during this historic time in the United States, our most significant market, is not an accident. It is validation of a shared vision and strategy to bring alternative health and wellness products to consumers that deliver functional outcomes. We believe the hemp CBD market will be explosive," Mr. Rendimonti added.

The Merger Co. brings together strategically aligned U.S. and Canadian assets to create the first fully integrated CBD company: One of the largest hemp cultivation and CBD extraction operations in North America; research, product development and GMP manufacturing facilities; international sales networks; and experienced leadership.

About Vitality
Vitality is a privately-owned Canadian company and one of North America's largest cultivators and producers of bulk CBD isolates from hemp. In 2018, Vitality planted and harvested approximately 20,000 acres of industrial hemp, purposely planted for CBD production (approximately 19,000 in Montana across 33 farms and 1,000 acres at one farm in Alberta).

Vitality is currently producing CBD isolate in its facility at Eureka, Montana. Vitality also acquired additional production capacity in Las Cruces, New Mexico, where it plans to retrofit the existing production/extraction equipment. By the second half of 2019, Vitality's total production capacity of CBD products, at both plants, is anticipated to reach more than 3,000 kilograms per day. The products offered include CBD isolate, CBD distillate and CBD full-spectrum soft gels.

About LiveWell
LiveWell is an innovative Canadian hemp and cannabis company focused on advanced research on CBD and other cannabinoids, as well as developing, marketing and distributing consumer health and wellness products. LiveWell is also a late-stage cannabis cultivation applicant for its facility based in Ottawa, Ontario. A Research and Innovation Centre is also planned for Litchfield, Québec, to further LiveWell's discovery in CBD and other cannabinoids.

LiveWell's team of researchers and scientists recently completed a seven-month study and major market report on CBD, published a white paper on CBD from Industrial Hemp, is working on CBD product formulations and partnering with other research entities. LiveWell has leadership experience from the pharmaceutical, engineering, consumer marketing, food and grocery industries, and commercial expertise in global markets.

In October 2018, LiveWell announced it was acquiring Acenzia Inc., a Windsor, Ont.-based developer and manufacturer of nutraceutical products for the health and wellness market. Acenzia specializes in patented therapeutics specific to particular medical conditions and personalized diagnostics. It has a manufacturing facility that is certified by Health Canada, is FDA registered and has NSF certifications for GMP, for Sport, and is USDA-Certified Organic. The acquisition is expected to close in the near future.

Commenting on the listing, Seann Poli, Co-Founder and CEO of LiveWell Foods noted "As a management team, we are proud to have completed the QT.

The surviving corporation of the Amalgamation is LiveWell Foods and will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

No fractional LiveWell Securities will be issued under the QT. Where the aggregate number of LiveWell Securities to be issued to any LiveWell securityholders under the QT would result in a fraction of a security of the Resulting Issuer being issuable representing one-half (0.5) or less of a LiveWell Security, the number of securities shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Resulting Issuer security and will be rounded up to the nearest Resulting Issuer security in the event the LiveWell Shareholder is entitled to receive a fractional share representing more than one-half (0.5) of a LiveWell Security.

Financing
In conjunction with the QT, LiveWell Foods raised capital through a brokered financing (the "Financing") as disclosed in the Company's Filing Statement dated May 29, 2018. On June 11, 2018 LiveWell Foods reduced the minimum raise from $10,000,000 to $9,436,099, in order to proceed with the completion of the closing of the QT; otherwise LiveWell Foods would have accommodated late expressed interest from prospective investors.

In connection with the Financing, LiveWell Foods paid Canaccord Genuity Inc. (the "Agent") and its selling group cash commissions and compensation options (the "Agent Options") equal to an average of 4.8% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Financing. Each Agent Option may be exercisable into a unit (a "Compensation Unit") at a price of $0.936 per Compensation Unit, after application of the Exchange Ratio. Each Compensation Unit consists of one (1) common share and one-half (½) common share purchase warrant (the "Broker Warrant").

Pursuant to the Amalgamation and after the application of the Exchange Ratio, shares and warrants issued as part of the Financing were exchanged for common shares and warrants of the Resulting Issuer on a 1 to 1.0684 basis. Each warrant issued pursuant to the financing shall be exercisable for two (2) years from the date of the Final Exchange Bulletin and listing on the TSXV for a price of $1.22.

Percy Street Capital Corporation Announces Qualifying Transaction

January 16, 2018 11:16 ET | Source: PERCY STREET CAPITAL CORPORATION
OTTAWA, Jan. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Percy Street Capital Corporation ("Percy Street" or the “Corporation”) (TSXV:PSC.P), a capital pool company, is pleased to announce it has entered into an arm’s length agreement in principle to purchase all of the issued and outstanding securities of LiveWell Foods Canada Inc. ("Livewell Foods"), a corporation incorporated on May 5, 2015 under the laws of Canada, and it intends that the proposed transaction will constitute its qualifying transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The parties executed a letter of intent on January 11, 2018.

Qualifying Transaction

Percy Street and Livewell Foods will enter a definitive agreement (the "Amalgamation Agreement") pursuant to which Percy Street, or a newly incorporated subsidiary of Percy Street, and Livewell Foods will complete a three-corner amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "CBCA") and whereby the security holders of Livewell Foods will receive securities of the issuer resulting from the Amalgamation (the "Resulting Issuer"). The parties have agreed that for the purposes of the Amalgamation, the valuation of Percy Street will be $1,665,000 and the valuation of Livewell Foods will be $50,000,000.

The proposed Qualifying Transaction is not a Non-Arm’s Length Qualifying Transaction.

Tim McCunn owns 0.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Percy Street and 7.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of Livewell Foods. The proposed Qualifying Transaction will not be subject to Percy Street shareholder approval.

Conditions precedent to the Closing of the Qualifying Transaction include execution of the Amalgamation Agreement and Percy Street and Livewell Foods obtaining all necessary consents to complete the Qualifying Transaction.

A concurrent financing will only be considered if necessary to meet the initial listing requirements of the Exchange. The parties intend on applying for a waiver of the sponsorship requirement.
