Knight Therapeutics Inc. (TSX:GUD) announced today that, through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Knight”), it has committed to invest up to US$2 million as a lead order toward the purchase of common shares of Synergy CHC Corp (“Synergy”) (OTCQB:SNYR) conditional on Synergy meeting certain fundraising targets in 2017.
In addition, Knight entered into an agreement with Synergy to swap its share purchase warrants and stock options of Synergy, which entitled Knight to purchase up to 9.1 million shares of Synergy at exercise prices ranging from US$0.25 to US$0.49 per share, in exchange for 7.5 million common shares of Synergy valued at US$2.9 million based on Synergy’s December 23, 2016 closing price of US$0.39 per share. Knight originally received the share purchase warrants and stock options in connection with its secured loans to Synergy issued in 2015. Following the exchange, Knight owns 17.6 million or 19.9% of Synergy’s common shares outstanding.
Separately, with respect to FOCUSfactor® and Hand MD™, Knight appointed Synergy as its exclusive third party direct channel distributor in Canada, Israel, Romania, Russia and sub-Saharan Africa; and as its exclusive third party retail channel distributor in Canada. Additionally, Knight amended its direct channel distribution agreement with Synergy for Flat Tummy Tea in Canada. The initial term of these agreements ends on February 15, 2021.
“While we missed the Christmukkah rush, we are confident that our continued partnership with Synergy will bring joy to both our company’s respective shareholders during this festive season,” said Jonathan Ross Goodman, CEO of Knight.
