TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tangelo Games Corp. (“Tangelo” or the “Company”) (TSX-VENTURE: GEL) is pleased to announce that shareholders of Tangelo ("Tangelo Shareholders") have approved the previously announced arrangement transaction pursuant to which GoGel Holdings Inc. will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Tangelo (the " Tangelo Shares") by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "Arrangement"). Pursuant to the Arrangement, each Tangelo Shareholder will receive cash consideration of $0.02565 for each Tangelo Share held.

Approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding Tangelo Shares were represented in person or by proxy at the annual and special meeting of Tangelo held today (the "Tangelo Meeting"). Approximately 91% of the Tangelo Shares represented at the Tangelo Meeting were voted in favour of the Arrangement.

Tangelo has applied for a final order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) for approval of the Arrangement. Subject to final court approval being obtained and the satisfaction or waiver of all remaining closing conditions, the Arrangement is expected to become effective on or about September 18, 2018. Following completion of the Arrangement, Tangelo will make an application to have the Tangelo Shares delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and an application will also be made for Tangelo to cease to be a reporting issuer in the applicable jurisdictions.
