/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/
NEW YORK, Feb. 14, 2023 /CNW/ - MiMedia Holdings Inc. (TSXV: MIM) ("MiMedia" or the "Company"), announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the "Lead Agent") on behalf of a syndicate of agents (collectively with the Lead Agent, the "Agents"), pursuant to which the Agents have agreed to assist the Company in selling, on a commercially reasonable efforts private placement basis, up to 5,000 convertible debenture units of the Company (the "Debenture Units") at a price of C$1,000 per Debenture Unit, to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$5,000,000 (the "Offering").
Each Debenture Unit will be comprised of: (i) one C$1,000 principal amount unsecured convertible debenture of the Company (a "Convertible Debenture"); and (ii) 1,000 subordinate voting share purchase warrants of the Company (each, a "Warrant"). The outstanding principal amount of each Convertible Debenture shall be convertible at the option of the holder thereof, at any time prior to maturity, into subordinate voting shares of the Company (the "Subordinate Voting Shares") at a conversion price of C$0.50 per Subordinate Voting Share (the "Conversion Price"). Each Warrant shall be exercisable to acquire one Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of C$0.65 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Offering (the "Closing Date"). The Convertible Debentures will mature 36 months from the Closing Date and will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable in cash or Subordinate Voting Shares, at the option of the Company, on a semi-annual basis. Any payment of interest pursuant to the issuance of Subordinate Voting Shares will be subject to the prior approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and the issue price per Subordinate Voting Share shall be at the then applicable Market Price (as such term is defined in the applicable policies of the Exchange).
If, at any time following the date that is four months from the Closing Date, the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Subordinate Voting Shares on the Exchange is greater than C$1.00 per Subordinate Voting Share for the preceding 10 consecutive trading days, the Company shall have the option to convert all of the principal amount of the then outstanding Convertible Debentures into Subordinate Voting Shares at the Conversion Price with at least 30 days' prior written notice to the holders of Convertible Debentures.
The Agent further shall have the option, exercisable at any time up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Offering, to increase the size of the Offering by up to C$2,000,000 (the "Agent's Option"). Assuming the full exercise of the Agent's Option, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering will be C$7,000,000.
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used for working capital and for general corporate purposes.
For its services in connection with the Offering, the Company will pay to the Agent: (i) a cash commission equal to 5.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering payable in cash or Debenture Units, or any combination of cash and Debenture Units, at the option of the Lead Agent; and (ii) warrants exercisable at any time prior to the date that is 24 months from the Closing Date to acquire that number of units (each, an "Agents' Unit") which is equal to 5.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering divided by the Conversion Price, at an exercise price per Agents' Unit equal to the Conversion Price.
The closing of the Offering is subject to customary closing conditions and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including but not limited to the approval of the Exchange. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory four month hold period from their date of issuance.
None of the securities issued in connection with the Offering will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and none of them may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
