Terms of the Agreement
Alpha Blue's advisee, EHGO, has agreed to subscribe for up to $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured convertible debentures (the "Notes") and accompanying warrants (the "Warrants"). The Notes shall be convertible into, and the Warrants shall be exercisable for, common shares ("Common Shares") in the capital of the Company, at prices to be determined at each closing under the Subscription Agreement. The Notes and accompanying Warrants shall be issuable in 24 separate tranches (each a "Tranche"). The Company shall issue the Notes in the principal amount of $700,000 for the first tranche (the "First Tranche") and shall issue Notes in the principal amount of $200,000 for each additional Tranche (each, a "Subsequent Tranche") or multiple tranches at a given time to a maximum of $500,000 based on a liquidity multiple and, in respect of each Tranche, accompanying Warrants, as described herein. The subscription price for each Note is 95% of its face value and the Notes shall bear no interest and the maturity date of the Notes shall be the date that is 12 months after their applicable issue date.
Subject to regulatory compliance, the Notes shall be automatically converted into such number of Common Shares as is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being converted, divided by the applicable conversion price immediately following the earlier of: (i) the delivery by the holder of a conversion notice, or (ii) the applicable maturity date of the Notes. In the event of a default under the Notes, there is an option to have the Notes redeemed in cash. At the closing of the First Tranche EHGO will be granted Warrants exercisable for three years with each Warrant having a right to acquire one Common Share of the Company.
The First Tranche and each Subsequent Tranche will also include three-year Warrants (referred to as "Facility Warrants") to acquire Common Shares of the Company at prices to be determined at each closing under the Agreement.
The funds from this financing may be used for capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.
