Vancouver, British Columbia - TheNewswire - December 24, 2019 - Cava Healthcare Inc. ("Cava" or the "Company") announces that its board of directors (the "Board") has approved the consolidation of the issued and outstanding common shares in its capital (each, a "Share") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Share for every twenty (20) pre-consolidation Shares (the "Consolidation"). The Company anticipates that the Shares will begin trading on a post-Consolidation basis at market open on December 27, 2019.

The Board believes that the Consolidation will provide the Company with greater flexibility for the continued development of its business and the growth of the Company, including possible financing arrangements.

As at the date hereof, the Company has an aggregate of 31,136,230 Shares issued and outstanding. The Consolidation would result in the Company having an aggregate of approximately 1,556,812 Shares issued and outstanding, on a non-diluted basis. The exercise price and number of Shares of the Company issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Consolidation in accordance with the terms of such warrants. The Company's new CUSIP number and ISIN for the Shares will be 149491201 and CA1494912019, respectively. The Company will not be changing its name in connection with the Consolidation.

No fractional Shares will be issued as a result of the Consolidation. Any fractional Shares resulting from the Consolidation will either be (i) rounded up to the next whole Share if such fractional Share is equal to or greater than one-half of a Share; or (ii) rounded down to the next whole Share if such fractional Share is less than one-half of a Share. No cash consideration will be paid in respect of fractional Shares.

A letter of transmittal with respect to the Consolidation will be mailed to the registered shareholders of the Company by TSX Trust Company, the transfer agent for the Shares, describing the process by which shareholders may obtain new certificates representing their post-Consolidation Shares. Shares held in uncertificated form by non-registered shareholders through brokerage accounts will be converted through each shareholder's brokerage accounts. Non-registered shareholders should consult their broker for further information.

Private Placement

Cava also announces that, due to market conditions and the Consolidation, it has terminated the remaining tranche of its previously announced private placement of units (see news releases dated July 10, 2019 and October 11, 2019), and announces a new non-brokered private placement of up to 1,000,000 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of $0.25 per Unit, on a post-Consolidation basis, for gross proceeds of up to $250,000 (the "Financing"). Each Unit will consist of one post-Consolidation Share and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.40 per Share, on a post-Consolidation basis, for a period of 12 months from the closing of the Financing (the "Closing Date"). If the closing price of the Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (or such other stock exchange where the majority of the trading volume for the Shares occurs) is equal to or exceeds $0.50 per Share, on a post-Consolidation basis, for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days commencing 4 months and one day after the Closing Date, then the Company may accelerate the expiry of the Warrants by providing written notice to the Warrant holders to exercise their Warrants within 30 days of the date of such notice, failing which the Warrants will expire.

Securities issued by the Company pursuant to the Financing will be subject to a four month and one day hold period in Canada commencing on the Closing Date.

The net proceeds from the Financing will be used for general working capital, product development and distribution.

None of the foregoing securities have been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) or persons in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor will there be any sale of the foregoing securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
