Vancouver, B.C., Canada – July 18, 2023 – Legend Power® Systems Inc. (TSX.V: LPS) (OTCQB: LPSIF) (“Legend Power” or the “Company”), a global leader in commercial electrical system solutions, is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 11,111,111 units and up to a maximum of 16,666,667 units of the Company (each, a “Unit“) at a price of $0.18 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $2,000,000 and up to a maximum of $3,000,000 (the “Offering“). The Offering is being completed pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (the “LIFE Exemption“). The Company has filed a Form 45-106F19 offering document (the “Offering Document”) related to the Offering that can be accessed under Legend Power’s profile at www.sedar.com and on the Company’s website https://legendpower.com/investors/. Prospective investors should read the Offering Document before making an investment decision.
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share“) and one common share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant“). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.25 per Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance , subject to an accelerated expiry provision, whereby in the event the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange, or such other stock exchange where the majority of the trading volume occurs (the “Exchange“), exceeds $0.40 for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, at the Company’s election, the period within which the Warrants are exercisable, will be reduced and the holders of the Warrants will be entitled to exercise their Warrants for a period of 30 days commencing on the day the Company provides notice, any outstanding Warrants not exercised during the 30 day period will expire.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general working capital purposes, fixed operating expenses, purchase order deposits, development expense and other related expenses, as more specifically detailed in the Offering Document. The Units issued in the Offering will not be subject to a hold period, subject to limitations prescribed by the LIFE exemption, and securities issued to insiders of the Company will be subject to a hold period expiring 4 months and 1 day after issuance, in accordance with the rules and policies of the Exchange and applicable Canadian securities laws. It is anticipated that insiders of the Company may participate in the Offering for up to $325,000. The issuance of Units to insiders will be considered a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.5(a) and the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.7(1)(a) in respect of such insider participation as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
The Offering may close in tranches and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Exchange.
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering have not, nor will they be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons in the absence of U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements. This news 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 the United States or in any other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
