Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 1, 2025) - Serra Energy Metals Corp. (CSE: SEEM) (OTCQB: ESVNF) ("Serra" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an amalgamation agreement dated effective May 1, 2025 (the "Amalgamation Agreement") with ROV Investment Partners Corp. ("ROV") and 1536702 B.C. Ltd. ("Subco"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to which the Company will, by way of a three-cornered amalgamation, acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of ROV, subject to the terms and conditions of the Amalgamation Agreement (the "Transaction"). The Transaction will constitute a "Fundamental Change" of the Company, as defined by the policies of Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE").

ROV Investment Partners Corp. is a privately held holding company that holds all of the outstanding share capital of UBERDOC, Inc. ("UBERDOC"), a Delaware corporation involved in the operation of a digital platform that facilitates direct-pay access to medical professionals in the United States.

ROV Investment Partners Corp. is a British Columbia-based investment issuer focused on strategic opportunities in the U.S. healthcare sector. The company specializes in health technology ventures that enhance access to care, with a particular emphasis on site-of-care optimization and value-based service delivery. ROV's flagship asset, UBERDOC, is a U.S.-based healthcare platform that connects patients directly with thousands of specialists across more than 50 fields, offering upfront pricing and expedited access to care.

Summary of the Transaction

Pursuant to the terms of the Amalgamation Agreement, on the closing date of the Transaction, ROV will amalgamate with Subco pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "BCBCA"). The amalgamated entity ("Amalco") will continue as one corporation and will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the Company being referred to on a post-closing basis as the "Resulting Issuer"). ROV shareholders will exchange common shares of ROV ("ROV Shares") for common shares of the Resulting Issuer ("Resulting Issuer Shares") based on an exchange ratio equal to that number of Resulting Issuer Shares for each one ROV Share (the "Exchange Ratio") which results in, upon completion of the Transaction, 11.8% of the Resulting Issuer Shares being held by shareholders of the Company and 88.2% of the Resulting Issuer Shares being held by ROV shareholders. As such, the Transaction will result in a reverse takeover of the Company by the shareholders of ROV upon completion of the Transaction, and the Resulting Issuer's primary business will be the business of UBERDOC. In connection with the Transaction, the Company intends to change its name to "UBERDOC Health Technologies Holding Corp." (the "Name Change") and will reconstitute its board of directors and management team as further described below.

Completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of terms and conditions customary for transactions of this nature, including, among other things, ROV having completed the ROV Financing (as defined below), the Company having arranged the Bridge Loan (as defined below), the Company having completed the Divestiture (as defined below), receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals contemplated in the Amalgamation Agreement, the execution of related transaction documents, and listing approval of the CSE.

The Transaction will constitute a "Fundamental Change", as defined by the policies of CSE, and must be approved by the CSE and the security holders of the Company prior to completion. In accordance with CSE policies, the Company will file a listing statement with the CSE regarding the Transaction, which will include fulsome disclosure of ROV and UBERDOC. The Company will also seek approval of the Transaction at a duly constituted meeting of the Company's shareholders (the "Shareholder Meeting"). In addition, the Transaction must be approved by not less than 66⅔% of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders of ROV (the "ROV Meeting"), which will be held to consider, among other things, the Transaction.

Certain securities issued in connection with the Transaction will be subject to escrow requirements of the CSE, mutually agreed upon escrow conditions, and hold periods as required by the CSE and applicable securities laws.

ROV Financing

In connection with the Transaction, ROV intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement of ROV Shares at a price of $0.35 per ROV Share for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $1,000,000 (the "ROV Financing"). The ROV Shares issued as part of the ROV Financing will subsequently be exchanged for Resulting Issuer Shares in accordance with the Exchange Ratio at the time of completion of the Transaction.

In addition to the ROV Financing, ROV may undertake one or more private placement bridge financings on terms mutually agreeable to the Company and ROV (together, the "Interim Financing"), and any securities issuable in connection with the Interim Financing shall be exchanged into Resulting Issuer Shares based on the Exchange Ratio at the time of completion of the Transaction.

Bridge Loan

Upon entry into the Amalgamation Agreement, the Company advanced a working capital loan in connection with the Transaction (the "Bridge Loan") in the amount of $500,000 to ROV, which bears interest at a rate of 7.0% and will be repayable by ROV to the Company within six months from the date of entry into the Amalgamation Agreement.

Divestiture

Prior to completion of the Transaction, the Company will dispose of (i) its Australian subsidiary E79 Resources Pty Ltd. ("E79 Resources"), which holds interests in the Myrtleford and Beaufort projects and is the sole owner of E79 Services Pty Ltd. ("E79 Services"), and (ii) ordinary shares of Advance Metals Limited ("AVM Shares") and any cash derived from the sale of such AVM Shares, in such transaction or transactions, including spinout or assignment, such that E79 Resources and E79 Services will not be subsidiaries of the Company following completion of the Transaction, and AVM Shares and/or proceeds received from the sale of AVM Shares will not be retained by the Company following completion of the Transaction (together, the "Divestiture").

The Divestiture is expected to be conducted as a plan of arrangement that spins out E79 Resources into a new British Columbia company that will hold E79 Resources as an operating subsidiary. The Company will be required to obtain shareholder approval of the Divestiture (if conducted as a plan of arrangement) in accordance with the BCBCA. This shareholder approval will be sought at the Shareholder Meeting.

Board and Management

Upon completion of the Transaction, and subject to the approval of the CSE, current directors and officers of the Company who will no longer be serving in such capacity or capacities following completion of the Transaction will resign and will be replaced by directors and officers determined by ROV, in its sole discretion. The names and titles of the new directors and officers of the Resulting Issuer will be named in a subsequent press release once finalized.
