Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 25, 2025) - IC Group Holdings Inc. (TSXV: ICGH) ("IC Group" or the "Company"), a technology-enabled consumer engagement company that helps brands simplify and amplify connections with consumers, is pleased to announce its intention to update its existing escrow agreement dated February 20, 2025, which applies to non-principal shareholders subject to seed share resale restrictions (the "Escrow Agreement").
The Escrow Agreement will be updated to correct it from a Surplus Escrow Agreement to a Value Escrow Agreement. The amendments include the removal of the cancellation provision required for a Surplus Tier 2 Issuer and a transition from a "surplus securities" release schedule to a "value securities" schedule for non-principal shareholders.
As a Tier 2 Issuer, the escrowed securities subject to the Escrow Agreement were to be released from escrow in accordance with the following "surplus" schedule:
Release Dates | Percentage of Total Escrowed Securities to be Released | Total Number of Escrowed Securities to be Released |
February 21, 2025 | 5% | 144,522 |
August 21, 2025 | 5% | 144,522 |
February 21, 2026 | 10% | 289,044 |
August 21, 2026 | 10% | 289,044 |
February 21, 2027 | 15% | 433,566 |
August 21, 2027 | 15% | 433,566 |
February 21, 2028 | 40% | 1,156,178 |
TOTAL | 100% | 2,890,442 |
In comparison, the Escrow Agreement may be amended such that, the escrowed securities will be released from escrow in accordance with the following "value" schedule:
Release Dates | Percentage of Total Escrowed Securities to be Released | Total Number of Escrowed Securities to be Released |
February 21, 2025 | 10% | 289,044 |
August 21, 2025 | 15% | 433,566 |
February 21, 2026 | 15% | 433,566 |
August 21, 2026 | 15% | 433,566 |
February 21, 2027 | 15% | 433,566 |
August 21, 2027 | 15% | 433,566 |
February 21, 2028 | 15% | 433,568 |
TOTAL | 100% | 2,890,442 |
Under the value securities model, the escrowed securities will be released according to a fixed schedule. As a Tier 2 issuer, IC Group's escrowed securities would be released over 36 months, beginning with a 10% release on the TSXV bulletin date, followed by 15% releases every six months.
The proposed amendments will affect 2,745,920 escrowed securities, with 144,522 to be released upon receipt of both the disinterested shareholder approval and the TSX Venture Exchange approval, to which the proposed changes are subject.
