Red White and Bloom Brands Inc. (CSE: RWB and OTC:RWBYF)
(“
RWB" or the "
Company") is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with PI
Financial Corp. and Eight Capital to act as co-lead underwriters,
on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (collectively the
"
Underwriters"), pursuant to which the
Underwriters will purchase, on a bought deal basis, an aggregate of
20,000,000 units of RWB (the "
Units") at a price
of $0.75 per Unit (the "
Offering
Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of
$15,000,000 (the "
Offering"). The net proceeds of
the Offering will be used for working capital and general corporate
purposes.
The Units will be offered by way of a short-form
prospectus in all provinces of Canada except Quebec, and such other
additional jurisdictions in Canada as agreed to by the Company and
the Underwriter.
The Company has also granted the Underwriter an
option to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment
Option”), which will allow the underwriters to offer up to
an additional 15% of the Offering, on the same terms as the Units.
The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised in whole or in part at
any time up to 30 days following the closing date of the Offering,
for any number of Units, Unit Shares, Warrants, or any combination
thereof at a price equal to the Offering Price for a Unit and a
price to be agreed upon for the Unit Shares and / or Warrants. If
the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the Company will
receive an additional $2,250,000 in gross proceeds for total
aggregate gross proceeds of $17,250,000.
Terms of the Offering
Each Unit shall consist of one common share of
the Company (each, a “Unit Share”) and one
transferable common share purchase warrant (each such warrant, a
“Warrant”). Each Warrant shall be exercisable into
one common share at an exercise price of $1.00 per common share for
a period of 24 months from the Closing Date (the “Warrant
Shares” or together with the Unit Shares,
“Shares”). Following the Closing Date, if the
daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of
the Company on the Exchange (as defined below) for any 10
consecutive days equals or exceeds $1.50, the Company may, upon
providing written notice to the holders of the Warrants, accelerate
the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is 30 days
following the date of such written notice.
The Offering is expected to close on or about
September 15, 2020, or such other date as agreed between the
Company and the Underwriter, and is subject to certain conditions
including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary
regulatory and other approvals including the approval of the
CSE.
The Company has agreed to pay a cash commission
of 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and will issue to the
Underwriters compensation options (the “Compensation
Options”) equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Units
sold under the Offering (the “Underwriting Fee”).
The Compensation Options will be exercisable into Units of the
Company at a price per Compensation Options equal to the Offering
Price for a period of 24 months from the closing of the
Offering.
In light of the Offering, the Company no longer
intends to rely on the blanket exemption order set out in BCI
51-517 – Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance
Requirements with Deadlines during the Period from June 2 to August
31, 2020 of the British Columbia Securities Commission (and similar
exemptions provided by the securities commissions of other
provincial and territorial regulators) with respect to the filing
of the Company’s interim financial statements and management’s
discussion and analysis for the period ended June 30, 2020. The
Company anticipates it will file such financial information in the
normal time frame.
