BMGB Capital Corp. Provides Update Respecting Proposed Qualifying Transaction with NAVCO Pharmaceuticals Limited

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 29, 2020) - BMGB Capital Corp. (TSXV: BMGB.P) ("BMGB" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an amended and restated binding letter of intent (the "LOI") dated October 28, 2020, respecting the proposed acquisition by BMGB of NAVCO Pharmaceuticals Limited ("NAVCO") (the "Transaction"). The LOI amends and restates the binding letter of intent respecting the Transaction that was previously entered into by the parties (see BMGB's news release dated April 30, 2020). Under the LOI, BMGB and NAVCO will continue to act in good faith to draft, negotiate and execute a definitive share exchange agreement or other similar form of agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") respecting the Transaction, which will supersede the LOI. The Transaction is intended to qualify as BMGB's "Qualifying Transaction" as defined by Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

Trading of the common shares of BMGB will remain halted in connection with the dissemination of this news release and will recommence at such time as the Exchange may determine, having regard to the completion of certain requirements pursuant to Exchange Policy 2.4. Further details of the proposed Transaction will follow in future news releases.

The Transaction

Pursuant to the LOI, the Transaction is expected to proceed by way of share exchange agreement under which BMGB will issue an aggregate of 21,340,000 BMGB common shares pro rata to the NAVCO shareholders at deemed price of $0.25 per share, representing an aggregate valuation for NAVCO under the Transaction of $5,335,000. The Transaction is subject to completion of certain conditions precedent, including without limitation: execution of the Definitive Agreement; the preparation and filing of a Filing Statement with the Exchange; completion by BMGB of a private placement (the "Private Placement") for gross proceeds of no less than $1,500,000; completion of satisfactory mutual due diligence; receipt of required shareholder approvals; and receipt of all necessary regulatory and Exchange approvals. The LOI also contemplates BMGB issuing 340,000 BMGB common shares as a finder's fee to an arm's length third party.

Under the Private Placement, BMGB will raise gross proceeds of no less than $1,500,000 through the issuance of common shares, anticipated to be at a price of $0.25 for share. The Private Placement may also include the issuance of share purchase warrants, if agreed to in writing by the parties. The Company will provide further information respecting the Private Placement in due course.

In conjunction with the closing of the Transaction, the resulting issuer (the "Resulting Issuer") will change its name to a name mutually determined by BMGB and NAVCO, acting reasonably. On closing of the Transaction, and assuming that BMGB raises $1,500,000 under the Private Placement at a price of $0.25 per share, the Resulting Issuer will have 32,180,000 common shares issued and outstanding. The current shareholders of BMGB would hold approximately 13.98% of the shares of the Resulting Issuer, participants in the Private Placement would hold approximately 18.65% of the shares of the Resulting Issuer, the NAVCO shareholders would hold approximately 66.31% of the shares of the Resulting Issuer, and the arm's length finder would hold approximately 1.06% of the shares of the Resulting Issuer. The board of directors and management of the Resulting Issuer will be those persons mutually determined by BMGB and NAVCO, acting reasonably.

The Transaction will not constitute a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" (as such term is defined by the Exchange). In addition, the Transaction is not a "related party transaction" as such term is defined by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions and is not subject to Policy 5.9 of the Exchange. As a result, no meeting of the shareholders of BMGB is required pursuant to Policy 2.4 of the Exchange or applicable securities laws.

Sponsorship of a Qualifying Transaction of a capital pool company is required by the Exchange unless exempt in accordance with Exchange policies or unless a waiver is granted by the Exchange. BMGB intends to apply for an exemption from the sponsorship requirements under section 3.4 of Exchange Policy 2.2 or a waiver of sponsorship if an exemption from sponsorship is unavailable; however, there can be no guarantee that a waiver will be granted if no exemption is available.
