The Limestone Boat Company Completes First Tranche of Brokered Private Placement of Units
November 25 2021 - 5:12PM
The Limestone Boat Company Limited ("
Limestone" or
the "
Company") (TSXV: BOAT) – owner and builder of
Aquasport Boats, Limestone® Boats and Boca Bay Boats – announces
that it has completed the first tranche of its previously announced
brokered private placement (the "
Placement") of
10,851,334 units (the "
Units") of the Company at a
price of $0.24 per Unit (the "
Issue Price") for
gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million. The Placement was led
by Beacon Securities Limited, acting as agent (the
"
Agent").
Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one
Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase
warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the
holder to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of $0.32
per Common Share for a period of 24 months from the date of
closing.
The net proceeds raised from the Placement are
expected to be used for general working capital purposes. In
connection with the Placement, the Company paid a cash commission
to the Agent of $180,622 and issued 752,593 compensation options,
each exercisable to acquire one Common Share at the Issue Price for
a period of 24 months from the date of closing.
The Company may close one or more additional
tranches of the Placement.
The securities issued in connection with the
Placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months
from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities
legislation. The Warrants will not be listed on any exchange.
In connection with the Placement, the Company
issued an aggregate 104,000 Units to Charles Pennock. The issuance
of such Units to Mr. Pennock, a director and insider of the Company
(as defined under applicable securities laws), constitutes a
"related party transaction" within the meaning of Policy 5.9 –
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions of
the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") and Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company is
relying on the exemption from the formal valuation requirement in
section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 (as a result of its Common Shares being
listed on the TSXV) and the exemption from the minority approval
requirement in section 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 (as neither the fair
market value of the Units distributed to Mr. Pennock pursuant to
the Placement, nor the consideration paid by Mr. Pennock, exceeded
$2,500,000).

the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in the United
States or in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or
sale would be unlawful prior to qualification or registration under
the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The securities being
