HTC says Delta dividends to be received within 10 days

2022-05-25 20:12 ET - News Release

Subject: HTC Purenergy Inc. PDF Document File: Attachment HTCNRDIVIDEND.pdf News Release May 25, 2022 For Immediate Release HTC ANNOUNCES UPDATE ON SPECIAL DIVIDEND-IN-KIND SHARES OF DELTA CLEANTECH INC. Regina, Saskatchewan -- HTC Purenergy Inc. ("HTC" or the "Company") (TSXV: HTC) (OTCQB: HTPRF) (UII:FRA) today provides a further update on its special dividend-in-kind (the "Dividend") of 12,000,000 of the 20,000,000 common shares (the "Delta Shares") of Delta CleanTech Inc. ("Delta") held by HTC, for which an update was previously provided in a news release dated February 9, 2022. In August 2021, the board of directors of HTC (the "Board") approved the Dividend to holders of common shares of HTC (the "HTC Shares"). HTC has issued Delta Shares under the Dividend to those HTC shareholders who held registered positions of HTC Shares, but certain holders of HTC Shares ("Affected HTC Shareholders") who hold their shares electronically in Canada through the Canadian Depository for Securities ("CDS") and in the United States through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") have not yet received their Delta Shares under the Dividend due to administrative delays. The Affected HTC Shareholders includes most HTC Shareholders who hold their HTC Shares electronically through a broker. HTC now expects the Affected HTC Shareholders will receive the Delta Shares under the Dividend within 10 days of the date of this news release. CDS and DTC have been notified of the Dividend and arrangements are being made with CDS and DTC for the issuance and distribution of Delta Shares to holders of record of HTC Shares. Beneficial shareholders (those holding their HTC Shares through brokerage houses which are in turn held via CDS and DTC) should contact their respective brokers for further information regarding payment of the Dividend. Registered holders (those holding HTC Shares registered in their name, including some HTC shareholders holding their shares through a broker) have already received Delta Shares by way of DRS statements evidencing the Delta Shares to which they are entitled under the Dividend. The Dividend will be taxable, and non-residents of Canada will be subject to Canadian withholding taxes. In respect of those non-residents of Canada which are subject to withholding taxes, HTC has retained such number of Delta Shares with a fair market value equal to the maximum withholding obligation for such respective shareholders. Shareholders with questions regarding the tax treatment of dividends should consult with their own tax advisors or contact their local office of the Canada Revenue Agency and, where applicable, the provincial taxation authorities. The Dividend is being distributed on a pro-rata basis. No fractional shares or cash in lieu thereof (or any other form of payment) will be payable under the Dividend. Any fractional interests in Delta Shares under the Dividend will be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number of shares. Based upon the number of HTC Shares currently outstanding and ignoring the effect of rounding for fractional interests or any convertible securities. ACTIVE_CA\51431941\1 The Delta Shares distributed under the Dividend are subject to a pooling arrangement restricting the trading of the Delta Shares on a stock exchange with a release schedule over a period of 24 months at 6-month intervals following the listing of the Delta Shares on a recognized stock exchange in Canada (the "Listing"). The Listing of the Delta Shares occurred on August 19, 2021, upon the trading of the Delta Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange. The Delta Shares were acquired by HTC in connection with the previously announced sale of clean energy assets ("Clean Energy Assets") to Delta, paid for by the issuance of 20,000,000 Delta Shares. The Clean Energy Assets consisted of all the intellectual property and certain contractual agreements for the operation of HTC's CO2 capture systems and reclaimer systems. The Company has filed a Form 3E with the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") in respect of the Dividend, notifying the Exchange of the Record Date. Delta is differentiated in the market by developing its proprietary CO2 extraction and patented purification technology with a focus on Environmental Social Governance ("ESG") in response to greater acceptance of climate change and its effects, as well as social license being sought by corporations in the energy industry. A reduced environmental footprint, through the capture of CO2, redirection of industrial by- products as usable hydrogen and utilization of reclaimed, recycled, and reused extraction fluids, has become an important currency for energy businesses, avoids the cost of increasing regulation consisting of penalties through fees and taxation, and makes a strong statement to stakeholders who expect ESG and Identity Preserved Waste (IPW) protocols to be instituted by energy companies. HTC's sale of its Clean Energy Assets has unlocked the value of the Clean Energy Assets IP by allowing Delta to be financed and its growth accelerated by a focused skilled and experienced management team. The Dividend, paid as a dividend-in-kind of Delta Shares, allows HTC shareholders to participate directly in Delta's growth and success. On January 28, 2021, HTC issued a press release regarding the disposition of the Clean Energy Assets, containing a discussion of the rationale and benefits of the transaction. HTC shareholders are now realizing those benefits by directly holding shares in Delta as well as HTC. HTC continues to operate its business associated with its hemp segment, which includes the production contracting of broad acre industrial hemp for: BioFibre utilized in BioPlastics, BioTextiles/Composites, and BioCellulose, as well as Hemp Seed Protein and Hemp Seed Oil, and Cannabinoid Extraction and continues to diversify its hemp portfolio.
