Pursuant to the terms of the Agency Agreement, the Company has agreed to grant to the Agent an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option“) exercisable, in whole or in part, in the sole discretion of the Agent to arrange for purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 Units (if the Maximum Offering is achieved) at the Offering Price for a period of up to 30 days after the Closing for potential additional gross proceeds to the Company of up to approximately C$1,500,000.
The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering for operating lease capital to support existing and new dealership leasing opportunities in Western Canada and Ontario.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agency Agreement, the Agent shall receive, upon Closing, (i) a cash commission equal to 8.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from the sale of the Units, subject to a reduced cash commission equal to 1.0% in respect of any sales of Units to purchasers on a president’s list provided by the Company to the Agent and (ii) warrants (the “Agent’s Warrants“) equal to 6.0% of the Units sold in the Offering (including the Over-Allotment Option). Each Agent’s Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Share for an exercise price of C$0.40 per Share for a period of 12 months following Closing. The Company has also agreed to pay the Agent a cash work fee of $40,000.
Closing of the Offering is subject to the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, and is anticipated to be on or about April 20, 2021.
