Metamaterial Exchangeco Inc. Announces Share Consolidation

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 23, 2024 / Metamaterial Exchangeco Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:MMAX) announces that it will be effecting a share consolidation of its issued and outstanding exchangeable shares ("Exchangeable Shares") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Exchangeable Share for every one hundred (100) pre-consolidation Exchangeable Shares (the "Consolidation") on January 29, 2024 (the "Effective Date"). The consolidation is being implemented in connection with a consolidation of the common shares of Meta Materials Inc. ("MMAT"), the parent company of the Company, which is being effected on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation common share for every one hundred (100) pre-consolidation common shares of MMAT, since the Exchangeable Shares are exchangeable for common shares of MMAT on a one-for-one basis. The Consolidation will affect all holders of Exchangeable Shares uniformly and will not affect any holder's ownership percentage of the Company's Exchangeable Shares.

In relation to the Consolidation, the Company has obtained a new CUSIP (59134L207) and ISIN (CA59134L2075). There is no name change or stock symbol change in connection with the Consolidation.

The Consolidation is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"). The Company's Exchangeable Shares are expected to commence trading on the CSE on a post-Consolidation basis on or about market open on January 29, 2024 under the Company's existing symbol "MMAX".

The Consolidation will reduce the number of outstanding Exchangeable Shares from 36,811,834 to approximately 368,118. No fractional Exchangeable Shares shall be issued pursuant to the Consolidation, and the number of post-consolidation Exchangeable Shares to be received by a registered holder shall be rounded up, in the case of a fractional interest that is 0.5 or greater, or rounded down, in the case of a fractional interest that is less than 0.5, to the nearest whole number of Exchangeable Shares that such registered holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon implementation of the Consolidation. No holder of Exchangeable Shares will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

No letters of transmittal will be mailed with respect to the Consolidation. Rather, a registered shareholder of the Company who holds Exchangeable Shares either in the form of a share certificate or through a direct registration system ("DRS") statement will, following the Effective Date, receive a new share certificate or DRS statement reflecting the applicable number of Exchangeable Shares on a post-Consolidation basis to which the registered shareholder is entitled, and all share certificates and DRS statements reflecting the Exchangeable Shares pre-Consolidation will no longer be valid. Shareholders who hold their Exchangeable Shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank or trust company or other intermediary should contact that nominee or intermediary for assistance in depositing their Exchangeable Shares in connection with the Consolidation.
