Novamind Obtains Final Order for Plan of Arrangement from the Supreme Court of British Columbia and Completes Acquisition by Numinus Wellness Inc.

TORONTO, ON / June 10, 2022 / Novamind Inc. (CSE: NM | OTCQB: NVMDF | FSE: HN2)(“Novamind” or the “Company”), a leading mental health company specialized in psychedelic medicine, announced today that the Company has completed its previously announced acquisition by Numinus Wellness Inc. (TSX: NUMI) (OTCQX: NUMIF) (“Numinus”) by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Transaction”) following receipt of a final order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

Pursuant to the Transaction, Numinus acquired all of the common shares of Novamind (“Novamind Shares”) and the holders of Novamind Shares have received 0.84 (the “Exchange Ratio”) of a common share of Numinus (each a “Numinus Share”) for each Novamind Share held. In addition, each Novamind option has been exchanged for replacement Numinus options that entitle the holders to receive, upon exercise thereof, Numinus Shares based upon the Exchange Ratio. Holders of Novamind restricted share units (“Novamind RSUs”) received the number of Numinus Shares equal to the number of Novamind Shares such holder was entitled to under each Novamind RSU, subject to any withholdings or deductions, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio.

The Novamind Shares will be delisted from the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) and Novamind intends to submit an application to the applicable securities regulators to cease to be a reporting issuer and to terminate its public reporting obligations.

Full details of the Transaction are described in the Company’s management information circular dated May 6, 2022, which is available on the Company’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
