Prospect Park Capital to Focus on Resource Sector

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prospect Park Capital ? Corp. (the "Company") ??(TSXV:PPK), a public investment issuer, announces today that its board of directors (the "Board") has amended its Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures (the "Investment Policy") to change the focus of the Company from healthcare investments to investments in the resource sector.

The Investment Policy provides broad investment guidelines for the management of the ?Company with respect to the assets of the Company. A copy of the new? Investment Policy is available under the Company's ?profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.?

In addition, with the Company's new focus and in an effort to improve market ?liquidity of the common shares of the Company, the Company has called a special shareholders' meeting (the "Meeting") for November 16, 2020, to seek shareholder approval to split the Common Shares on the basis of up to three (3) post-split Common Shares for each one ??(1) pre-?split Common Share (the "Split"), or such number of post-split shares as may be determined by the Board or may be required to obtain approval of the Split from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Additional information relating to the proposed Split will be included in the management information circular of the Company, which will be available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on or about October 20, 2020. Shareholders of the Company will be asked to pass a special resolution authorizing the Board, at a time it sees fit, to amend the Company's articles to effect the Split. There are currently ?4,740,824 ?Common Shares issued and outstanding. If and upon the Split becoming effective, on a maximum of three (3) to one (1) basis, it is expected there will be approximately 14,222,472 post-Split Common Shares issued and outstanding on a non-diluted basis (assuming no additional Common Shares are issued after the date hereof). The Board believes the Split is necessary in order for the Company to more easily raise capital, attract business opportunities and improve market ?liquidity. The Board, in its sole discretion, may revoke the resolution approving the Split and abandon the Split without further approval, action by, or prior notice to shareholders. The Split is subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, including the approval of the Exchange. Registered shareholders are advised not to mail in the certificate(s) representing their Common Shares until they receive a letter of transmittal and confirmation from the Company by way of news release that the Board has decided to implement the Split.

In addition, the board of directors of the Company has approved the adoption of an advance ?notice by-law (the "Advance Notice By-law") regarding director elections. The purpose of the Advance Notice By-law is to provide a clear process for the shareholders, ?directors and management to follow when nominating directors of the Company. Such a by-law ?will ensure that shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient ?information regarding all director nominees and to allow shareholders to register an informed vote ?after having been afforded reasonable time for appropriate deliberation. The Advance Notice By-?law, among other things, includes a provision that requires advance notice to the Company in ?certain circumstances where nominations of persons for election to the board of directors are made ?by shareholders of the Company. This Advance Notice By-law also sets a deadline by which ?director nominations must be submitted to the Company prior to any annual general or special ?meeting of the shareholders and also sets out the required information that must be included in the ?notice to the Company. No person will be eligible for election as a director of the Company unless ?nominated in accordance with the Advance Notice By-law.? In the case of an annual meeting of the shareholders, notice to the Company must be made not less ?than 30 days and not more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual general meeting. If the ?annual meeting is being held on a date that is less than 40 days following the date on which the first ?public announcement of the meeting was made, notice may be made not later than the close of ?business on the 10th day following such public announcement.? In the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting) called for the ?purpose of electing directors, notice to the Company must be made not later than the close of ?business on the 15th day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of ?the special meeting was made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the board of directors may, in its sole ?discretion, waive any requirement of the Advance Notice By-law.?

For more information on the matters to be voted on at the Meeting, please see the Company's ?management information circular which will be filed on the Company's ?profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com at the requite time prior to the Meeting.?
