TORONTO, March 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entourage Health Corp. (TSX-V: ENTG) (OTCQX: ETRGF) (FSE: 4WE) (the "Company” or "Entourage”) is pleased to announce that the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders”) have approved the proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement”) involving 1001095275 Ontario Inc. (the "Purchaser”) and 2437653 Ontario Inc. (the "Guarantor”), both related parties of LiUNA Pension Fund of Central and Eastern Canada ("LiUNA”), at the special meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting”) held earlier today.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, the Purchaser will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares”) for cash consideration equal to $0.005 per share.

The special resolution approving the Arrangement (the "Arrangement Resolution”) was approved at the Meeting by: (i) 95.647% of the votes cast by Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting; and (ii) 90.477% of the votes cast by Shareholders present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, other than the Purchaser and Guarantor and any other persons required to be excluded under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101”)

The Arrangement is expected to become effective on or about March 31, 2025, subject to, among other things, Entourage obtaining a final order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) in respect of the Arrangement and the satisfaction or waiver of certain other customary closing conditions.
