Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2026) - AF2 Capital Corp. (TSXV: AF.P) ("AF2"), a capital pool company as defined under Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), announces that, further to its press releases dated October 16, 2025 and March 12, 2026, it has agreed with Everkind Inc. ("Everkind") to amend certain terms of the previously announced amalgamation agreement dated March 12, 2026 (the "Amalgamation Agreement") to reprice the concurrent private placement subscription receipt financing (the "Concurrent Financing") from $1.00 to $0.80 per subscription receipt (the "Subscription Receipts"). The gross proceeds to be raised pursuant to the Concurrent Financing remain between $6,000,000 and $7,000,000.
The Transaction
As previously announced, AF2 and Everkind have entered into the Amalgamation Agreement pursuant to which AF2 will consolidate its share capital (the "AF2 Consolidation") and then AF2's wholly-owned subsidiary, 1001520531 Ontario Inc., will amalgamate with Everkind (the "Amalgamation") and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of AF2, in order to complete AF2's qualifying transaction (the "Transaction"). In connection with the Transaction, it is intended that AF2 will be renamed "Everkind Corp." (the "Resulting Issuer") or such other name as may be approved by British Columbia Registry Services, and the Resulting Issuer will carry on the business of Everkind, subject to all required approvals.
In connection with the Transaction, Everkind expects to complete the Concurrent Financing issuing a minimum of 7,500,000 and a maximum of 8,750,000 Subscription Receipts at an amended price of $0.80 per Subscription Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of between $6,000,000 and $7,000,000, which funds shall be placed in escrow pending the satisfaction of certain conditions (the "Escrow Release Conditions"). Each Subscription Receipt will convert into, immediately prior to the effective time of the Amalgamation upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, one Everkind common share which will then be immediately exchanged for one common share of the Resulting Issuer ("Resulting Issuer Share") pursuant to the Transaction. Completion of the Concurrent Financing is a condition of the completion of the Transaction.
Amending Agreement
In connection with the Transaction, the parties have agreed to amend the Amalgamation Agreement, and have entered into an amending agreement (the "Amending Agreement") dated May 15, 2026, to (i) reflect the revised Concurrent Financing price of $0.80 per Subscription Receipt, and (ii) to amend the consolidation ratio of the AF2 Consolidation from 1:6.66667 to 1:5.33333, resulting in AF2 having a total of 937,500 common shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation in order to retain its value of $750,000. A copy of the Amending Agreement will be filed under AF2's profile on SEDAR+.
The Transaction remains subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals, including the approval of the Exchange, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
