SK3 Group (OTC Pink: SKTO) and PharmaJanes.com (OTCQB: AEGY) Sign Definitive Agreement to Merge
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 4, 2014) - Alternative Energy Partners, Inc. (OTCQB: AEGY), doing business as PharmaJanes, and SK3 Group (OTC Pink: SKTO) (PINKSHEETS: SKTO), doing business as Medical Greens, announce that their respective Boards of Directors have signed a definitive agreement to merge the two companies for better market efficiencies and to create a single medical marijuana market support company which can qualify for a higher (AMEX, NASDAQ) market listing.
Per the agreement, SKTO and AEGY will merge into a newly formed acquisition company which will integrate the separate operations of both companies. Shareholders of each constituent party to the merger will receive shares of the new holding company, which will succeed to the SEC reporting obligation of AEGY and which will apply for a new trading symbol, a new CUSIP number, and continued electronic trading status with the Depository Trust Company. The final exchange rate for the common shares of AEGY and SKTO will be based on the volume weighted average market value of each company on the effective date, which has not yet been determined.
The previously announced dividend of the shares of AEGY held by SKTO will be accounted for in the merger by treating those shares as held proportionately by the SKTO shareholders as of the effective date. Closing of the proposed merger will require the new holding company to register the shares to be issued in the merger to the shareholders of both AEGY and SKTO.
"We are excited that this merger is completed and we are looking forward to moving ahead in our newly merged form," said SK3 Group President Artemus Mayor. "I am looking forward to working with the AEGY management to integrate both companies to deliver enhanced value to all of our shareholders."
"This merger will enhance our ability to deliver services to our customers across all of our lines of business," said AEGY President Mario Barrera. "The combined entity will take advantage of scale economies and directly aligned business operations and strategy to take the combined business to the next level."
