VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / December 5, 2025 / Queue Ventures Ltd. ("Queue") is pleased to announce that, further to its news releases dated December 9, 2024 and May 30, 2025, Custom FundCo Inc. ("FundCo") has completed the first closing (the "First Closing") in respect of its brokered private placement (the "Offering") of subscription receipts of FundCo ("Subscription Receipts"). Pursuant to the First Closing, FundCo issued an aggregate of 1,200,000 Subscription Receipts at a price of US$8.00 per Subscription Receipt (the "Financing Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of US$9,600,000 (the "FundCo Financing"). Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc. ("Stifel") and Bloom Burton Securities Inc. ("Bloom Burton", and together with Stifel, the "Agents") acted as co-lead agents and joint bookrunners for FundCo in connection with the FundCo Financing, which was conducted pursuant to an agency agreement (the "Agency Agreement") dated December 5, 2025 among Queue, FundCo, Custom Health, Inc. ("Custom Health") and the Agents (the "Agency Agreement").
The Subscription Receipts were issued pursuant to a subscription receipt agreement dated December 5, 2025 (the "Subscription Receipt Agreement") among Queue, FundCo, Custom Health, the Agents, and Odyssey Trust Company, as subscription receipt agent (the "Subscription Receipt Agent"). Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement, if the escrow release conditions as set out in the Subscription Receipt Agreement (the "Escrow Release Conditions") are satisfied on or prior to June 3, 2026, or such other date as FundCo, Queue, Custom Health and the Agents may agree (the "Escrow Deadline"), each Subscription Receipt will automatically be converted, without payment of any additional consideration and without any further action on the part of the holder thereof, into one common share in the capital of FundCo (a "FundCo Share"). Subsequently, in connection with the completion of the business combination transaction (the "Transaction") of Queue and Custom Health involving FundCo, Custom Merger Sub, Inc., and Queue BC Subco Inc., each FundCo Share received by holders of the Subscription Receipts shall then be exchanged into one common share in the capital of Queue following the completion of the Transaction (a "Resulting Issuer Share").
Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, if, and only if, the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied by the Escrow Deadline, (i) the Agents will be paid a cash commission of 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the Offering, which, in respect of the First Closing, is US$576,000 (the "FundCo Cash Fee") and (ii) the Agents will be issued that number of compensation warrants as is equal to 3.0% of the number of Subscription Receipts issued pursuant to the Offering, which, in respect of the First Closing, would be 36,000 compensation options (the "FundCo Compensation Options") each exercisable to acquire one FundCo Share for a period of 24 months at the Financing Price. In connection with the completion of the Transaction, each FundCo Compensation Option will be exchanged for one compensation option of the Resulting Issuer, entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Resulting Issuer Share at the Financing Price for a period of 24 months following the date of issuance thereof.
The gross proceeds of the FundCo Financing, less the Agents' expenses incurred in connection with the First Closing have been deposited in escrow at closing pending the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement. If either: (i) the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied on or before the Escrow Deadline; or (ii) prior to such Escrow Deadline, FundCo advises the Agents and the Subscription Receipt Agent that the Escrow Release Conditions will not be satisfied prior to or by the Escrow Deadline, the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled and the escrowed funds shall be returned to the holders of the Subscription Receipts in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.
