Enter Definitive Agreement for Business Combination"},"content":{"rendered":"

We are pleased to announce that Sayward Capital Corp. (TSXV: SAWC.P) (\u201cSayward\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) and Technosteel Construction (L.L.C.) (\u201cTechnosteel\u201d) have executed a definitive share exchange agreement (the \u201cDefinitive Agreement\u201d) for a proposed business combination. This marks a significant milestone in the transaction process first initiated through the non-binding letter of intent dated June 13, 2024. The transaction is expected to result in a reverse takeover of Sayward by Technosteel and its shareholders, positioning the combined entity\u2014anticipated to be renamed Technosteel Corp.<\/em>\u2014as a Tier 1 Industrial Issuer on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV), subject to regulatory approval.<\/p>\n

About the Transaction<\/h2>\n

Pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement, Sayward will issue 711.11111 common shares in exchange for each outstanding share of Technosteel, resulting in a deemed transaction price of US$0.1875 per Sayward share. The business combination will see Technosteel\u2019s shareholders assume control of the resulting issuer, with no planned share consolidations on either side.<\/p>\n

The transaction includes the issuance of up to 6,966 additional Technosteel shares to Alarar Capital Group Limited (\u201cARC\u201d) for its strategic advisory role, and a concurrent private placement of up to 30,000 Technosteel shares to raise gross proceeds of up to US$4,000,200. Subscribers in the financing will, upon closing, exchange their shares into Sayward shares under the same terms. The proceeds will be used to expand Technosteel\u2019s fabrication capacity, invest in technological automation, and fund general working capital.<\/p>\n

Sayward will pay a finder\u2019s fee of US$470,370 to 2818390 Ontario Corp. at closing, payable in cash or Sayward shares. Upon completion, Sayward\u2019s existing directors and officers are expected to resign, with a new leadership team assuming roles within the Resulting Issuer.<\/p>\n
