The Plan of Arrangement was implemented pursuant to the terms and conditions of an arrangement agreement dated June 2, 2020 between Choom and Phivida (as amended), and has resulted in the acquisition by Choom of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Phivida (the “ Phivida Shares ”) in exchange for consideration of 0.72566 of a common share of Choom (each full share, a “ Choom Share ”) for each Phivida Share (the “ Exchange Ratio ”).
