Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 15, 2024) - Further to its press release dated November 1, 2023, Deal Pro Capital Corporation (TSXV: DPCC.P) (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update regarding its proposed acquisition (the "Acquisition") of Urban Utilities Contractors Inc. ("Urban"), which Acquisition, if completed, will constitute the Company's "qualifying transaction" under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

The Acquisition

It is now anticipated that the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Urban by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") with a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of Urban ("Subco"), to be incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), resulting the amalgamated corporation ("Amalco") becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Resulting Issuer") on closing. Upon completion of the Amalgamation, all issued and outstanding securities of Urban will be exchanged for economically equivalent securities of the Company on a one (1) for one (1) basis.

The final structure and form of the Acquisition remains subject to satisfactory tax, corporate and securities law advice for both Urban and the Company and will be set forth in a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") to be entered into among the parties. Upon completion of the Acquisition, the Resulting Issuer will continue to carry on the business of Urban as currently constituted.

Closing of the Acquisition remains subject to a number of conditions including but not limited to satisfactory due diligence investigations, the negotiation and execution of the Definitive Agreement, receipt of all required shareholder, if required, regulatory and third-party approvals and consents, including that of the Exchange and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The Acquisition cannot close until the required approvals are obtained. There can be no assurance that the Acquisition will be completed as proposed or at all.

Loan

The Company is pleased to announce that on December 6, 2023, it received conditional Exchange approval to its proposed $75,000 loan to Urban, on the terms described in the Company's November 1, 2023 press release, and that the loan was advanced to Urban on January 15, 2023.

Trading Halt

Trading of the Company's shares will remain halted pending the Exchange's receipt of satisfactory documentation and completion of the Acquisition.
