TORONTO, Ontario – TheNewswire - July 25, 2022 - MPX International Corporation (the “Corporation” or “MPXI”) (CSE:MPXI); (OTC:MPXOF) announced today that the Corporation and certain of its Canadian subsidiaries (collectively, the “MPXI Group”) have been granted an order (the "Initial Order") from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the "Court") under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (the “CCAA”), in order to restructure their business and financial affairs. The Initial Order also extends certain protections to MPXI's foreign subsidiaries.

Due to, among other things, margin pressures caused by significant competition and the fragmentation of the cannabis industry, operational and financial underperformance in Switzerland, Canada and elsewhere, and financial pressures resulting from obligations owing to creditors, the MPXI Group has been unable to generate positive cash flows and has consistently incurred cumulative losses. After careful consideration of all available alternatives, the board of directors of each member of the MPXI Group determined that it was in the best interest of the MPXI Group and its stakeholders to seek creditor protection under the CCAA.

The Initial Order provides for, among other things, a stay of proceedings in favour of the MPXI Group and its foreign subsidiaries, the approval of debtor-in-possession financing ("DIP Financing") and the appointment of KSV Restructuring Inc. as monitor of the MPXI Group (in such capacity, the "Monitor"). Business operations will not be interrupted as a result of the CCAA proceedings.

The stay of proceedings and DIP Financing will provide the MPXI Group with the time and stability required to consider potential restructuring transactions and maximize the value of its assets for the benefit of its creditors and other stakeholders. This may include the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the MPXI Group through a court-supervised sales process. In that regard, the MPXI Group intends to seek Court approval to launch a sale and investment solicitation process for its business and assets (the "SISP") on or around August 4, 2022. The SISP is expected to be administered by the Monitor, with the assistance of the Applicants. Additional details in respect of the SISP will be disclosed shortly.

Additional information regarding the CCAA proceedings – including all of the Court materials filed in the CCAA proceedings – may be found at the Monitor's website:

Cancellation of Annual Meeting of Shareholders

Pursuant to a press release issued on July 12, 2022, the Corporation advised its shareholders that its annual meeting (the "Meeting") initially scheduled to be held on July 15, 2022 at 10:00 am (Toronto time) would be postponed until July 29, 2022 at 10:00 am (Toronto time). Pursuant to the Initial Order, the Court has relieved the Corporation from its obligation to hold the Meeting until further order of the Court. Accordingly, the Company will not proceed to hold the Meeting on July 29, 2022. Should the Company determine to hold the Meeting at a future date, shareholders and other interested parties will be notified by way of further press release.
