All monetary amounts are expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

CALGARY, AB, Feb. 8, 2021 /CNW/ - Eguana Technologies Inc. (TSXV: EGT) (OTCQB: EGTYF) ("Eguana" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it intends to raise up to $15,000,000 (or up to $20,000,000 if the Agents' Option (as defined below) is exercised in full) by way of a private placement on a "best efforts", agency basis (the "Offering"). The Offering is being led by Stifel GMP and Cormark Securities Inc., as co-lead and joint bookrunners, together with Mackie Research Capital Corporation (the "Agents"). In addition, and in connection with the Offering, Fort Capital Securities Ltd. shall act as a capital markets advisor to the Company.

Pursuant to the proposed Offering, the Company will issue special warrants ("Special Warrants") of the Company at a price of $0.40 per Special Warrant. Each Special Warrant will be convertible into one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") without payment of any additional consideration upon certain conditions being met.

The Company has granted the Agents an over-allotment option (the "Agents' Option"), exercisable in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time up to 48 hours prior to the closing date, to increase the size of the Offering by up to an additional $5,000,000 of Special Warrants, on the same terms and conditions as the Offering.

The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify the distribution of the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Special Warrants by way of a prospectus ("Qualifying Prospectus") within 90 days following the closing of the Offering (the "Qualifying Condition"). The securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a 4–month hold period from the date of the closing of the Offering (the "Closing Date") unless the Qualifying Prospectus is filed and receipted within that time. If the Qualifying Condition is not met, each Special Warrant will be exercisable (for no additional consideration and with no further action on the part of the holder thereof) for 1.1 Common Shares. Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will make an application to list the Common Shares issuable on exercise of the Special Warrants on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the Exchange. The Special Warrants will not be listed on any stock exchange or over–the–counter market.

In addition to strengthening its balance sheet, the Company plans to use net proceeds of the Offering to accelerate cost reduction activities, to further vertically integrate its supply chain through battery management and module development, to expand its development and lab testing capabilities, and to strategically position inventory for the transition from batch manufacturing to flow manufacturing, enabling consistent product availability.

The Offering is scheduled to close in February 2021 on a date to be determined by the Agents and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Exchange and the securities regulatory authorities and the execution of a definitive agency agreement with the Agents in respect of the Offering.

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 offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or "U.S. persons" (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act any application state securities laws.
