TORONTO, Oct. 26, 2020 /CNW/ - Bragg Gaming Group Inc. (TSXV: BRAG) (OTC: BRGGF) (the "Company" or "Bragg") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters co-led by Cormark Securities Inc. and Canaccord Genuity Corp.

Each Unit will consist of one Common Share (each a "Common Share") of the Company and one half of one Warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant") of the Company.

In addition, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option (the "Over-Allotment Option") to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units of the Offering on the same terms exercisable at any time up to 30 days following the closing of the Offering, for market stabilization purposes and to cover over-allotments, if any.
The net proceeds of the Offering shall be used for growth initiatives, working capital and general corporate purposes.
Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about November 17, 2020 and is subject to regulatory approval including that of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Units to be issued under the Offering will be offered by way of a short form prospectus in each of the provinces of Canada (other than Quebec), and may be offered in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, and certain other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States.
