LeddarTech Obtains Waiver Under Credit Facility
July 05 2024 - 6:44PM
LeddarTech Holdings Inc. (“LeddarTech” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:
LDTC), an automotive software company that provides patented
disruptive AI-based low-level sensor fusion and perception software
technology, LeddarVision™, for ADAS, AD and parking applications,
announces it entered into a Ninth Amending Agreement (the “Waiver”)
with Fédération des caisses Desjardins du Québec (“Desjardins”)
with respect to the Amended and Restated Financing Offer dated as
of April 5, 2023 (as amended, the “Desjardins Credit Facility”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Desjardins Credit Facility, the
Company is required to maintain an unencumbered cash balance of at
least C$5.0 million (the “Minimum Cash Covenant”). Pursuant to the
Waiver, among other things, Desjardins has temporarily reduced the
required Minimum Cash Covenant to C$3.5 million from July 5, 2024
through July 6, 2024, and to C$1.8 million from July 7, 2024
through July 26, 2024, after which time the Company will again be
obligated to maintain a minimum cash balance of C$5.0 million.
The foregoing description of the Waiver does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Waiver, a copy of which has been filed under the
Company’s SEDAR+ and EDGAR profiles at www.sedarplus.ca and
www.sec.gov, respectively. The foregoing also should be read in
conjunction with the disclosures set forth in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 20-F for the year ended September 30, 2023 as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and under the Company’s
SEDAR+ profile on January 31, 2024, including the disclosures set
forth under “Item 3.D – Key Information – Risk Factors” contained
therein.
Additionally, the Company has received
indications of interest from several of its principal shareholders
to invest an aggregate of up to US$9.7 million in the Company,
subject to certain conditions to be agreed upon, including the
Company raising an amount of outside capital through a proposed
financing transaction (the “Financing Transaction”). Because
indications of interest are not binding agreements or commitments
to purchase, there can be no assurance that such existing
shareholders will invest their full indication of interest, or any
amount at all, in the Financing Transaction, or that the Company
will successfully complete the Financing Transaction in an amount
sufficient to meet the conditions to be established for any such
investment by such existing shareholders, or at all. Any debt or
equity securities to be offered and sold in the Financing
Transaction may not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, or state securities laws and may not be offered or sold
in the United States absent registration with the Securities and
Exchange Commission or an applicable exemption from such
registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute
an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any
securities in the Financing Transaction, nor shall there be any
sale of such securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such
jurisdiction.
