Visionstate Corp. Announces Update on Private Placement
Edmonton, Alberta – June 19, 2024 – Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”), a leading provider of smart facility management technology, is pleased to announce a private placement (“Placement”) of up to 25,000,000 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of $0.02 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $500,000, subject to regulatory approval. Each Unit is comprised of one (1) common share of Visionstate (“Common Share”) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (“Warrant”) whereby each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one (1) additional Common Share at a price of $0.05 per Common Share for a period of two (2) years following the date of closing, subject to an acceleration clause.
If the closing price of the Common Shares is equal to or exceeds $0.07 per Common Share for greater than twenty (20) consecutive trading days, then the warrant term shall automatically accelerate to a date that is thirty (30) calendar days following the date a press release is issued by the Company announcing the reduced warrant terms, without further notification made by the Company.
In the event of acceleration, the expiry date will be accelerated to a date that is thirty (30) days after the date that written notice has been given to the warrant holder or the date that Visionstate has issued a press release announcing the exercise of the acceleration right; and thereafter, no further notification will be provided by Visionstate to the subscribers. The securities issued under the Placement are subject to a four-month plus one day hold period from the date of closing.
Proceeds from the Placement will be primarily allocated towards the development and commercialization of new products designed to enhance the Company's IoT solutions and expand its market reach. Visionstate remains committed to delivering IoT technology solutions that drive operational efficiencies and improve customer experiences across various industries.
The issuance of Units to insiders pursuant to the Placement will constitute a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Placement will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101. In particular, Visionstate has determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) in section 5.5 of MI 61-101 are applicable since the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of Visionstate and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, regarding the minority shareholder approval exemptions, the independent directors have determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b) in section 5.7 of MI 61-101 are applicable in that the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of Visionstate, the distribution of the securities to the related parties will have a fair market value of not more than $2,500,000 and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange.
The previously announced unit offering on March 4, 2024 has been withdrawn and is superseded by this press release.
