VANCOUVER, BC and WILMINGTON, Mass., Nov. 28, 2024 /CNW/ - November 28, 2024 – Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. ("Liberty" or the "Company") (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB: LDDFF) (FRANKFURT: LD2A), a leading technology provider of AI-based next generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, is pleased to announce a proposed non-brokered private placement of up to 25,000,000 units of the Company (the "Units") at $0.32 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $8,000,000 (the "Offering").

Each Unit will consist of one common shares (a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.55 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.
Bill Frain stated, "Nearly four years after going public and securing over $40 million to advance HEXWAVE technology - from patents to commercialization - we are now shifting our focus from engineering to scaling Liberty into a global leader in security. Our top priorities are to expand our customer base, accelerate deployments, and strengthen partnerships across key verticals. This latest offering empowers our team at Liberty to expedite our roll out of HEXWAVE and TSA funded High Definition Advance Imaging Technology, both AI empowered technologies which are designed to protect critical infrastructure from emerging threats."
The Warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry if, any time after the closing date of the Offering, the closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), or such other market as the Shares may trade from time to time, is or exceeds $0.70 for any five (5) consecutive trading days, in which event the holders of the Warrant may, at the Company's election, be given notice and the Company will issue a press release announcing that the Warrants will expire 5 days following the date of such press release. The Warrants may be exercised by the holder of the Warrant during the 5-day period between the date of the press release announcing the accelerated expiry date and the expiration of the Warrants.
Finder's fees may be payable in connection with the completion of the Offering in accordance with TSXV policies. The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be utilized by the Company for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Concurrent with the Offering, the Company also intends to settle a total of up to $500,000 of indebtedness with certain creditors (the "Shares for Debt Settlement") by issuing up to 1,562,500 Shares at a deemed price of $0.32 per Share.
All securities issued in connection with closing of each of the Offering and Shares for Debt Settlement will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance of the Units or Shares, as applicable, in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
Closing of the Offering is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including that of the TSXV.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
The Company would like to confirm that there are 16,764,347 common shares outstanding as a result of the consolidation of its common shares prior to any issuances from the Offering or the Shares for Debt Settlement announced today.

Russia suspected of sending incendiary devices on US- and Canada-bound planes, Wall Street Journal reports

(CNN) — Incendiary devices that ignited in Germany and the United Kingdom in July were part of a covert Russian operation that aimed to start fires aboard cargo and passenger flights heading to the US and Canada, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported Monday, citing Western security officials.
In July, device explosions at DHL logistics hubs in Leipzig, Germany, and Birmingham, UK, kickstarted a race to find the suspects, WSJ reported.
When asked about the incidents, a spokesperson at DHL Express told CNN the company is “aware of two recent incidents involving shipments in our network,” adding they are “cooperating with the relevant authorities.”
The devices, which were reportedly electric massagers implanted with a magnesium-based flammable substance, were sent to the UK from Lithuania and “appear to have been a test run to figure out how to get such incendiary devices aboard planes bound for North America,” the WSJ reported.
Speaking at a Tuesday news conference, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov called the WSJ’s reporting “unintelligible hoaxes which are never supported by any credible information.”
Asked about the alleged Russian plot, a US government official told CNN that “at this time, there is no current active threat targeting U.S.-bound flights.”

United States President Joe Biden has rolled out new plans to harness Artificial Intelligence (AI) for national security, as the global race to innovate the technology accelerates.
Biden outlined the strategy in a first-ever AI-focused National Security Memorandum (NSM) Thursday, calling for the government to stay at the forefront of “safe, secure and trustworthy” AI development.
The memo directs US agencies to bolster their semiconductor chip supply chains, incorporate AI considerations into new government technology, and prioritise intelligence gathering on foreign efforts to undermine US AI leadership.
“We believe that we must out-compete our adversaries and mitigate the threats posed by adversary use of AI,” said a Biden administration official cited by AFP, the French news agency.

Liberty Defense Receives Contract Modification from TSA for Continued Development of AIT Screening Kits

is pleased to announce that it has received additional funding under its current contract with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The contract was awarded in 2023 with a total value of $3.86M. With this additional funding, $1.69M of the total contract value has been obligated. The funding will support additional design efficiencies into the development of a High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) upgrade kit for testing on an Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) passenger screening system.
The purpose of this Research and Development contract is to provide the TSA with Open Architecture (OA) software, end-to-end engineering development, and the maturation of the HD-AIT Wideband Upgrade Kit that is anticipated to offer enhanced detection and an improved passenger experience.
As a federal agency within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, TSA is responsible for security screening conducted at about 430 federalized airports in the United States. The agency’s On-Person Screening program aims to detect a range of emerging threats, with fewer false alarms and less physical contact with passengers. According to the TSA Open Architecture Roadmap, the agency seeks a technology-design approach for software and hardware that uses widely accepted standards to ensure interoperability across tools and platforms, regardless of the technology designer, manufacturer, or supplier.
“We continue to work closely with TSA on this critical initiative to help develop the next generation of passenger screening,” says Liberty CEO Bill Frain. “We have made significant progress on the kit and this funding will support the targeted testing schedule in 2025. The HD-AIT Upgrade Kit will provide advanced threat detection and the opportunity for TSA to engage third-party providers for additional HD-AIT capabilities that could provide other operational proficiencies at the checkpoint.”
