Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 17, 2021, iAnthus Capital Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release providing an update with respect to its 2020 annual general meeting (the “Annual Meeting”). As previously disclosed in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the BC Registrar of Companies (the “BC Registrar”) granted the Company an extension extending the deadline to hold the Annual Meeting from October 31, 2021 to December 31, 2021. On November 19, 2021, the BC Registrar declined to grant any further extension for the Annual Meeting citing its policy of allowing maximum extensions of 12 months.
On December 17, 2021, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal in the Supreme Court of British Columbia appealing the BC Registrar’s decision requesting the court grant the Company a further extension to hold the Annual Meeting until June 30, 2022 as, among other things, the Company’s previously announced recapitalization transaction has not yet closed. No hearing date for the appeal has been scheduled yet.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and the information contained therein is incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K.
