VANCOUVER, May 6, 2015 /CNW/ - Smartcool Systems Inc.

Cannacord Genuity Corp. assisted in the placement of an aggregate of $70,000 of the proceeds, for which it has received a cash finder's fee equal to eight percent (8%) of the money it helped raise and 112,000 brokers warrants, subject to the TSX Venture Exchange's approval.  Each brokers warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company for an exercise price of $0.10 for a period of 24 months.
