Brompton Corp. Successful in Claim against Tuckamore Holdings LP


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - July 7, 2017) - On July 6, 2017, the Court of Appeal for Ontario dismissed Tuckamore Holdings LP's ("Tuckamore") appeal of the February 1, 2017 decision by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) granting Brompton Corp.'s ("Brompton" or the "Company") motion for summary judgment in respect of the Company's indemnification claim against Tuckamore. As a result, Tuckamore is liable to indemnify the Company in respect of certain liabilities under a share purchase agreement dated July 5, 2011. Pursuant to an order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) dated February 1, 2017, Tuckamore has been directed to pay Brompton approximately $4.6 million for these liabilities, interest and costs (as of February 1, 2017) and Tuckamore is liable to indemnify the Company for additional interest and legal costs that have accrued since February 1, 2017 and that will continue to accrue/be incurred. In addition, Tuckamore is liable for Brompton's legal costs related to the motion for summary judgment and the appeal to the Court of Appeal Ontario of approximately $220,000. The Company's motion for summary judgment was in respect of an indemnification claim relating to previously disclosed notices of reassessment that the Company had received from the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for taxation years ending in 2010 to 2014. The notices of reassessment remain in dispute with CRA. Based on publicly available corporate filings, Tuckamore is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ClearStream Energy Services Inc.
