Consolidated HCI Holdings Corporation Announces Share Consolidation

CONCORD, ON, March 4, 2019 /CNW/ - Consolidated HCI Holdings Corporation (NEX:CXA.H) (the "Company") announces that it has filed its management information circular and related proxy materials (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") on SEDAR and that the Meeting Materials have been mailed to shareholders of the Company in connection with its annual and special meeting of shareholders to be held on March 29, 2019 (the "Meeting").  The record date for the Meeting is February 20, 2019.

The Meeting is being held to:

• appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as the auditors of the Company for the ensuing year;
• elect the directors; and
• seek shareholder approval of a special resolution to amend the articles of the Company to allow for a consolidation of the Company's issued and outstanding Class B shares on the basis of one (1) new Class B share for up to every twenty (20) existing Class B shares, with the final consolidation ratio to be determined by the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), all as more particularly described in the Meeting Materials (the "Consolidation").

The Company believes that completion of a Consolidation may facilitate the ability of the Company to affect future financings and seek out other business opportunities, and that shareholders should provide the Company with approval to complete a Consolidation in the future should the Board deem it necessary and in the best interest of the Company. It is not the Company's intention to complete the Consolidation unless the Board determines that it is in the best interests of the Company on a going forward basis.

As at March 4, 2019, there were 20,575,866 Class B shares of the Company issued and outstanding. In the event that the Consolidation is approved and the Company subsequently determines to effect the Consolidation, at a maximum conversion ratio of 1:20, there would be an aggregate of 1,028,793 Class B shares outstanding immediately thereafter (calculated based on the number of Class B shares of the Company currently issued and outstanding). The Consolidation remains subject to shareholder approval and the approval of the NEX board of the TSX Venture Exchange.
