BlueRush Announces First Closing of Private Placement and Debenture Conversions
01 Februar 2021 - 2:00PM
BlueRush Inc. (“
BlueRush” or the
“
Company”) (TSX-V: BTV), an emerging personalized
video Software as a Service company, is pleased to announce the
first closing of its previously announced non-brokered private
placement financing. Pursuant to this initial tranche the Company
has raised gross proceeds of $3,898,675 through the issuance of
37,130,238 units of the Company at $0.105 per unit. The Company
anticipates a second and final closing in the next 10 days.
The Company is also pleased to announce that
62.5% ($1,250,000) of the Company’s outstanding five year 10%
unsecured convertible debentures (the “2018
Debentures”) issued by the Company in October 2018 agreed
to convert at the conversion price ($0.105) of the 2018 Debentures,
and 100% ($1,450,000) of the Company’s outstanding three year 10%
unsecured convertible debentures issued by the Company in June/July
2020 agreed to convert at the conversion price ($0.06) of the
debentures. Accordingly, the Company has issued 36,071,423 common
shares pursuant to the conversions. In addition, the Company has
issued warrants (the “Incentive Warrants”) to the
holders of the 2018 Debentures that agreed to convert as an
incentive for their conversion, exercisable for 5,952,378 common
shares of the Company at a price of $0.18 per share until the
date that is thirty-six (36) months from issuance, subject to
acceleration.
Round13 Capital Founders Fund, L.P.
(“Round13”), the Company’s largest shareholder,
agreed to convert its 2018 Debentures and 2020 Debentures and as a
result also received 3,571,428 of the Incentive Warrants.
Accordingly the issuance of the Incentive Warrants to Round13 is
deemed to be a “related party transaction” as defined under
Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). In
addition, Mr. John Eckert, an independent director of the Company,
is a Managing Partner of Round13 Capital Inc., the general partner
of Round13. The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation
requirements of MI 61-101 since none of the securities of the
Company are listed on a stock exchange specified in section
5.5(b) thereof. The proposed transaction is exempt from the
minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 since,
at the time the transactions were agreed to, neither the fair
market value of the transaction nor the fair market value of the
consideration for the transaction, insofar as it involves
interested parties, exceeded 25% of the Company’s market
capitalization.
Including the issuance of shares detailed
herein, there are now 151,567,903 common shares of the Company
issued and outstanding.
All securities issued pursuant to the private
placement financing and the Incentive Warrants are subject to a
four-month hold.
