The aggregate value of the transaction is approximately $41.5 million, comprised of $29 million of cash consideration to be paid for the Canadian assets under the APA and the assumption of liabilities of approximately $12.5 million. Closing of the transactions contemplated by the APA are expected to occur on or before April 3, 2019.

Vancouver, B.C. – Ascent Industries Corp. (CSE: ASNT) advises that on Friday, March 1, 2019, the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued an order granting the Company’s application for creditor protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada). The order also extends protection to Agrima Botanicals Corp., Bloom Holdings Ltd., Bloom Meadows Corp., Pinecone Products Ltd., Agrima Scientific Corp. and West Fork Holdings NV Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). These proceedings do not include or impact the operations and activities of Ascent’s other subsidiaries, including operations in Oregon, Nevada and Denmark.
The Company sought creditor protection to address near term liquidity issues, which were in large part caused by the ongoing suspension of the Company’s licenses by Health Canada which were negatively impacting the Company’s ability to complete a strategic alternatives process in sufficient time to address its short term liquidity issues. In the circumstances, the Board of Directors determined that a CCAA proceeding was the most prudent and effective way to carry on business and maximize value for the Company’s stakeholders. While under CCAA protection, Ascent will continue with its day-to-day operations and plans to conclude the strategic alternatives process in the immediate future, which has generated substantial interest from various parties.
Ascent has received a commitment for up to $2 million in interim financing, subject to certain terms and conditions, to support its continued operations, which interim financing was approved by the Court. The interim financing is expected to provide sufficient liquidity to support the Company’s business through to the conclusion of the strategic alternatives process. It is expected that this financing will be provided by Gulf Bridge Ltd. (“Gulf Bridge”), a secured creditor of Ascent.
Ascent has also received a Notice of Intention to Enforce a Security from Gulf Bridge that it intends to enforce its security over certain assets of Ascent pursuant to a loan agreement dated January 4, 2019 between Gulf Bridge and Ascent and guaranteed by Ascent’s subsidiaries, West Fork Holdings NV Inc., Agrima Botanicals Corp. and Bloom Holdings Ltd. As of February 25, 2019, the total amount of the indebtedness secured is $7,092,054.79. In accordance with the initial order granted in the CCAA proceedings, Gulf Bridge is stayed from enforcing its security over the property and undertaking of the entities in the CCAA proceedings. Gulf Bridge will have the right to enforce its security interest on property that is held by companies outside of the CCAA proceedings as of March 7, 2019, in which event the Company will review its legal rights and all available options.

$PGTMF.OTC ASNT.CSX ASCENT INDUSTRIES SETS ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETING AND PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATES
Vancouver, B.C. – Ascent Industries Corp. (CSE: ASNT) advises that it will hold its Annual Meeting along with a Special Meeting of Shareholders on June 6, 2019. A meeting was requisitioned by a group of dissident shareholders (collectively, the “Malcolm Group”).
The Annual and Special Meeting will deal both with normal course matters and matters related to the requisition. Holding both meetings at the same time will spare the shareholders of the Company the additional distraction and costs that would be associated with holding two separate meetings in quick succession.
Shareholders are not required to take any action at this time in respect of the combined Annual and Special Meeting.
The Company will prepare a Management Information Circular (“MIC”) in connection with the Annual and Special Meeting which will contain a full response to statements made by the Malcolm Group and will also contain a full history of the actions undertaken by both current and former members of management, as well as the Malcolm Group, that have resulted in the Company’s current financial and operational difficulties. The Company intends to file its MIC well in advance of the June 6 Annual and Special Meeting. Pursuant to applicable securities laws, the Company will not solicit proxies for the meeting until the MIC has been filed.
Health Canada Submission
The Company reports that it has made further submissions to Health Canada (the “Agency”) to address the suspension and proposed revocation of the Canadian producer’s licence and dealer’s licence (collectively, the “Licences”) issued by the Agency to Agrima Botanicals Corp (“Agrima”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Health Canada has acknowledged receipt of the submission and the Company is awaiting Health Canada’s response to the submission.
Nevada Hearing
Further to the Company’s press release of February 15, 2019 regarding the show cause hearing with the Department of Business Licence in Clark County, Nevada, the Company reports that the Hearing originally slated for February 28, 2019 has been moved to March 28, 2019. The Company continues to review the matter and intends to appear and provide appropriate information to the Department at the Hearing and to show cause why the Licence in Nevada should not be permanently suspended, revoked or non-renewed.
