FILAMENT HEALTH ANNOUNCES TERMINATION OF PROPOSED
BUSINESS COMBINATION
WITH JUPITER ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NEWS PROVIDED BY
Filament Health Corp.
20 Dec, 2023, 00:27 ET
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 19, 2023 /CNW/ - Filament Health Corp. (OTCQB: FLHLF) (NEO: FH) (FSE: 7QS) (“Filament” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage natural psychedelic drug development company, today announced that the Business Combination Agreement, by and among the Company, Jupiter Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ: JAQC) (“Jupiter”), 1427702 B.C. Ltd. (“TopCo”) and Filament Merger Sub LLC, dated as of July 18, 2023 (as amended by the First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination Agreement”), with respect to a proposed business combination between Filament and Jupiter (the “Proposed Business Combination”), has been terminated by the parties by mutual agreement.
As previously announced in the Company’s press release dated December 18, 2023, the Company was required to make material changes to the terms of the Proposed Business Combination and the proposed financing of senior secured convertible notes by Helena Global Investment Opportunities 1 Ltd. (the “Note Financing”) in order to enable the combined company after the Proposed Business Combination to meet Nasdaq listing requirements.
Given the material changes required in order to meet Nasdaq listing requirements, the parties have determined not to continue to pursue the Proposed Business Combination and therefore have decided to terminate the Business Combination Agreement. Given that the completion of the Proposed Business Combination is a condition to closing the Note Financing, the Note Financing will not be completed at the present time.

Important Information About the Proposed Business Combination and Where to Find It
This communication relates to the proposed business combination (the “Proposed Business Combination”) between Jupiter Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Jupiter”), and Filament Health Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia (“Filament”), and may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the Proposed Business Combination. The Proposed Business Combination would be submitted to Jupiter’s stockholders for their consideration and approval. 1427702 B.C. Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia (“TopCo”), has filed a registration statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-273972) and amendments and supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which contains a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus that constitutes (i) a preliminary proxy statement in connection with Jupiter’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by Jupiter’s stockholders to approve the Proposed Business Combination and other matters as described in the Registration Statement and (ii) a preliminary prospectus relating to the offer of TopCo securities to be issued in the Proposed Business Combination. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on November 13, 2023, and TopCo and Jupiter filed the definitive proxy statement/prospectus with the SEC on that same date. Jupiter and TopCo may also file other relevant documents with the SEC and, in the case of Filament and TopCo, with the applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities, regarding the Proposed Business Combination. On November 13, 2023, after the Registration Statement was declared effective, Jupiter commenced the mailing of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its stockholders as of the record date established for voting on the Proposed Business Combination. On December 7, 2023 and December 8, 2023, TopCo and Jupiter filed supplements to the definitive proxy statement/prospectus. The Proposed Business Combination would also be submitted to the securityholders of Filament for their consideration and approval. JUPITER’S STOCKHOLDERS AND OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, THE PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO, AND THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS IN CONNECTION WITH JUPITER’S SOLICITATION OF PROXIES FOR ITS SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD TO APPROVE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION, BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS CONTAIN OR WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT JUPITER, FILAMENT, TOPCO AND THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION.
Jupiter’s stockholders and other interested parties may also obtain a copy of the Registration Statement, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus, any amendments or supplements thereto, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the Proposed Business Combination and other documents filed with the SEC by Jupiter, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to: Jupiter Acquisition Corporation, 11450 SE Dixie Hwy, Suite 105, Hobe Sound, FL 33455. As the Registration Statement contains certain information about Filament, the Registration Statement has also been made available under Filament’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
INVESTMENT IN ANY SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR ANY OTHER REGULATORY AUTHORITY, NOR HAS ANY AUTHORITY PASSED UPON OR ENDORSED THE MERITS OF THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION PURSUANT TO WHICH ANY SECURITIES ARE TO BE OFFERED OR THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

Forward-Looking Statements
This communication includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “continue,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “scheduled,” “should,” “would,” “seek,” “target” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, and any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on the current beliefs and expectations of Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Although Filament, TopCo and Jupiter believe that their respective plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, none of Filament, TopCo or Jupiter can assure you that any of them will achieve or realize these plans, intentions, or expectations. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Filament, TopCo and Jupiter. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Proposed Business Combination; (ii) the failure of either Jupiter or Filament prior to the Proposed Business Combination, or TopCo after the Proposed Business Combination, to execute their business strategy; (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Filament, TopCo or Jupiter or others following the announcement of the Proposed Business Combination; (iv) the inability to complete the Proposed Business Combination due to the failure to obtain any necessary interim order or other required court orders in respect of Filament’s statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with respect to the Proposed Business Combination or the failure to obtain the approval of Filament’s shareholders or Jupiter’s stockholders or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (v) changes to the proposed structure of the Proposed Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to obtaining regulatory approval of the Proposed Business Combination; (vi) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards prior to and following the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination; (vii) the risk that the Proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Filament as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Proposed Business Combination; (viii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of TopCo to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key employees; (ix) costs related to the Proposed Business Combination; (x) failure to comply with and stay abreast of changes in laws or regulations applicable to Filament’s business, including health and safety regulations and policies; (xi) Filament’s estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect to redemptions by Jupiter’s stockholders and purchase price and other adjustments; (xii) any downturn or volatility in economic or business conditions; (xiii) the effects of COVID-19 or other epidemics or pandemics; (xiv) changes in the competitive environment affecting Filament or its customers, including Filament’s inability to introduce, or obtain regulatory approval for, new products; (xv) the failure to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms; (xvi) the impact of pricing pressure and erosion; (xvii) failures or delays in Filament’s supply chain; (xviii) Filament’s ability to protect its intellectual property and avoid infringement by others, or claims of infringement against Filament; (xix) the possibility that Filament, TopCo or Jupiter may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive factors; (xx) the failure of Filament or TopCo to respond to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and (xxi) Filament’s estimates of its financial performance; (xxii) whether potential financing related to the Proposed Business Combination or any other strategic alternative by Helena can be succesfully negotiated and funded; and those factors discussed in documents of Jupiter or TopCo filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or any assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that none of Filament, TopCo or Jupiter presently knows or that Filament, TopCo and Jupiter currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Filament, TopCo and Jupiter anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Filament’s, TopCo’s and Jupiter’s assessments to change. However, while Filament, TopCo and Jupiter may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Filament, TopCo and Jupiter specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Filament’s, TopCo’s or Jupiter’s assessments as of any date after the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
