Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – June 7, 2021) – DelphX Capital Markets Inc. (TSXV: DELX) (“DelphX“) today announces that it has entered into an agreement with convertible debtholders to issue common shares (the “Shares“) of DelphX to settle debts totalling $147,300 for accrued interest with the issuance of 626,809 Shares at a price of $0.235 each, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Shares will be subject to a 4-month-plus-1-day hold period from the date of issuance. The shares-for-debt settlement and subsequent issuance of the Shares will not create a new Control Person.
After issuance of the Shares, DelphX will have 107,283,918 common shares outstanding.
A total of $120,000 (510,638 Shares, the “Related Shares“) are held by parties who are considered to be “related parties” of DelphX. Therefore, issuance of the Related Shares constitutes a “related party transaction” as contemplated by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, and TSXV Policy 5.9 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. However, the exemptions from formal valuation and minority approval requirements provided for can be relied upon as the fair market value of the Related Shares does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of DelphX.
