Bee Vectoring Technologies Closes Non-brokered Private Placement
October 23 2019 - 3:16PM
Bee Vectoring Technologies International Inc. (the
“
Company” or “
BVT”) (TSXV: BEE)
(OTCQB: BEVVF), is pleased to announce it has closed a non-brokered
private placement of 4,242,104 special warrants (“
Special
Warrants”) at a price of $0.25 per Special
Warrant for gross aggregate proceeds of $1,060,526 (the
“
Offering”). Each Special Warrant represents
the right of the holder to receive, without payment of any
additional consideration or need for further action, subject to
customary anti-dilution provisions, one unit
(“
Unit”) four months and one day after closing.
Each Unit will consist of one common share (a
“Share”) and one transferable common Share
purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will
entitle the holder, on exercise, to purchase one additional Share
for a period of 18 months following the closing, at an exercise
price of CAD$0.40 per Share. The Company has the right to
accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants if the closing market
price of the Shares of the Company on the TSX Venture Exchange is
equal to or exceeds C$0.55 for a period of 15 consecutive trading
days commencing with the date the Warrants are issued.
A director of the Company participated in the
Offering and will acquire, directly or indirectly, an aggregate of
60,000 Special Warrants. The participation by an insider in the
Offering is considered to be a “related party transaction” as
defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-
101”). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and
minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither
the fair market value of the securities being issued nor the
consideration being paid exceeds 25% of the Company’s market
capitalization. New investors that are friends and family of the
directors and who are not insiders also purchased 580,000 units in
this private placement.
BVT intends to use the net proceeds of the
Offering to fund its ongoing growth strategy in the agricultural
space, for continued research and development and general working
capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering
will be subject to a statutory hold period that will expire on
February 24, 2020, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Company has paid a finders fees of $700 cash and issued 2,800
Warrants on the same terms noted above to qualified parties in
connection with Offering.
