NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
MONTREAL, June 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intema Solutions Inc. (“Intema” or the “Corporation”) (TSXV: ITM, OTCMKTS: ITMZF) is pleased to announce the terms of the financing being undertaken by the Corporation in connection with its previously announced proposed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Livestream Gaming Ltd (see press release dated May 3, 2021) (the “Proposed Transaction”). Intema intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 20,000,000 and a maximum of 30,000,000 subscription receipts (each a “Subscription Receipt”) at a price of $0.50 per Subscription Receipt (the “Subscription Price”) for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $10,000,000 and a maximum of $15,000,000 (the “Private Placement”).
The Subscription Receipts will be issued pursuant to a subscription receipt agreement to be entered into between Intema and the subscription receipt agent (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”). Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, each Subscription Receipt will be automatically exchanged into one unit of the Corporation (a “Unit”), for no additional consideration or action on the part of the holder, upon the satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions in connection with the Proposed Transaction, including (i) all conditions precedent to the completion of the Transaction having been satisfied, (ii) the Corporation not being in breach or default of any of its covenants or obligations under the Subscription Receipt Agreement, and (ii) the escrow agent having received a notice from the Corporation that all conditions precedent to the completion of the Proposed Transaction have been satisfied or waived, other than the release of the escrowed funds to the Corporation pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement (the “Escrow Release Conditions”). The proceeds of the Private Placement will be held in escrow pending the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions. If the Proposed Transaction is not completed within 180 days of the closing of the Private Placement, the Subscription Receipts will be deemed to be cancelled and the holders of the Subscription Receipts will receive an amount equal to the aggregate Subscription Price of their Subscription Receipts and the interest earned, if any, on such Subscription Price.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Corporation (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Corporation (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.90 for a period of 12 months from the date of satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Corporation shall pay eligible arm’s length parties (each a “Finder”) a cash fee equal to 6% of the aggregate value of Subscription Receipts sold pursuant to the Private Placement in respect of subscriptions referred to the Corporation or directly sourced by the Finder and issued on the closing of the Private Placement. The Corporation shall also issue to each Finder that number of Warrants equal to 8% of the number of Subscription Receipts sold that were referred to or directly sourced by the Finder to the Corporation.
The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds raised under the Private Placement for its expansion and business development activities, including the Proposed Transaction, general working capital and for corporate purposes.
Closing of the Private Placement is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The securities to be issued pursuant to the Private Placement, including the Subscription Receipts, the Common Shares and Warrants to be issued upon the deemed exercise of the Subscription Receipts, will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day from the closing of the Private Placement.
Transaction Update
The Proposed Transaction will constitute a fundamental acquisition under TSXV Policy 5.3, and as such it will be subject to the approval of the TSXV, which will require a filing statement to be completed as well as meeting the general requirements of TSXV Policy 2.10 Listing of Emerging Market Issuers. As the transaction is arm’s length and is not expected to create any new control persons, it is not expected that the shareholders of Intema will be required to approve the Proposed Transaction. Trading of Intema’s shares on the TSXV will remain halted until satisfactory review of the Proposed Transaction by the TSXV.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. 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.
