On December 19, 2023, Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. (“Novo”) issued a press release announcing that Blacksheep Trust (“Blacksheep”) provided partial assignment of the $1 Billion Dollar Gold-Bullion backed Bond to Novo.
The Gold-backed Bond is a 20-year instrument earning 12.5 percent simple interest per annum. The UCC-3 filing presents for the partial assignment and transfer of the full face-value of the Bond to Novo for a maximum term of 15-years without the benefit of annual interest.
As previously disclosed, Novo and Blacksheep entered into a Master (Asset Transfer) Agreement, dated September 27, 2023, in which Blacksheep agreed to transfer to the Company certain collateral equal to $1 billion and controlled by Blacksheep (the “Collateral”). The Collateral will be used by the Company for monetization.
A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
The information included in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The information set forth under this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
