INDIVA Limited (TSX VENTURE:NDVA) (“Indiva” or the “Company“), a federally-licensed producer of medical cannabis, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter of engagement with Eight Capital, under which Eight Capital has agreed to purchase, as sole bookrunner and lead underwriter, 9,523,810 units of the Company (the “Units“), on a “bought deal” basis pursuant to a filing of a short form prospectus, subject to all required regulatory approvals, at a price per Unit of $1.05 (the “Issue Price“) for gross proceeds of $10,000,001 (the “Offering“).
The Company has agreed to grant Eight Capital an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units at the Issue Price, exercisable in whole or in part, at any time on or prior to the date that is 30 days following the closing of the Offering. If this option is exercised in full, an additional $1,500,001 will be raised pursuant to the Offering and the aggregate proceeds of the Offering will be $11,500,002.
Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share“) and one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a “Warrant“). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $1.30, for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering. If, following the closing of the Offering, the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is equal to or greater than $2.10 for any 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may, upon providing written notice to the holders of Warrants, accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is 30 days following the date of such written notice.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.
The closing date of the Offering is scheduled to be on or about February 13, 2018 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and the applicable securities regulatory authorities.
