Quantum International Income Corp. Announces Sale of Anesthesia Business; Management Changes
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 01/19/16 -- Quantum International Income Corp. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE: QIC)(TSX VENTURE: QIC.U) announces today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with DGAT Partners, LLC ("DGAT") and certain other affiliates, pursuant to which the Corporation will sell, and affiliates of DGAT will acquire, the entirety of the Corporation's 100% indirect interest in DA Management NJ Inc., the subsidiary through which the Corporation indirectly administered anesthesia services at its Centers for Special Surgery, LLC ("CSS") subsidiary and other locations. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary Quantum Anesthesia Management Corp., the Corporation will receive, in consideration for the sale, a cash payment of US$600,000 and the irrevocable option to cancel, for no additional consideration payable, 9,000,000 common shares of the Corporation which had been previously issued to affiliates of DGAT. The Corporation and the purchasers have further agreed to reduce the cash portion payable to the Corporation by US$362,000, which reduction reflects an aggregate amount the purchasers have agreed to pay to satisfy certain expenses of CSS that would otherwise have been ultimately funded by the Corporation. Affiliates of the purchasers are members of the Board of Directors of CSS and as such are considered Non-Arm's Length Parties of the Corporation under TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") rules. The completion of the transaction is subject to receipt by the Corporation of final approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.
"Quantum continues to downsize operations and cut costs as a part of our restructuring initiatives. We are singularly focused on our growth and profitability in our surgery centre operations," stated Manu Sekhri, Chief Executive Officer.
Separately, the Corporation announces today that Geoff Boothe has resigned from the Board of Directors, effective immediately. The Corporation further announces that Roy Booth, Chief Financial Officer has resigned from the Corporation effective February 15, 2016. Mr. Boothe was first elected to the Board in November 2013 while Mr. Booth joined the Corporation as CFO in March 2014.
"Quantum thanks Messrs. Booth and Boothe for their service to the company during its formative phase," continued Mr. Sekhri. "Their contributions were greatly valued and we wish them well in their future endeavours."
