CUPERTINO, Calif., Dec. 29,
2023 /CNW/ - (TSXV: BWLK) (OTCQB: BWLKF)
Boardwalktech Software Corp. (the "Company" or
"Boardwalktech") is pleased to announce it has closed,
subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"TSXV"), an initial tranche of a non-brokered private
placement of 6,698,666 units (each, a "Unit", and
collectively the "Units") of the Company at the price of
C$0.30 per Unit for gross proceeds of
approximately C$2,009,600 (the
"LIFE Offering") pursuant to the Listed Issuer
Financing Exemption (the "LIFE") of National Instrument
45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), which was
previously announced on December 11,
2023 and then when Offering was upsized on December 22, 2023.
Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the
Company (each a "Common Share") and one Common Share
purchase warrant (each a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles
the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of
C$0.50 per Common Share for a period
of 36 months from the closing date of the Offering, subject to
early acceleration by the Company if the trading price of the
common shares of the Company is greater than CDN$1.00.
Subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements,
and in accordance with NI 45-106, the LIFE Offering was made to
purchasers resident in Canada
pursuant to the LIFE Part 5A of NI 45-106. The securities issued
under the LIFE Offering are not subject to a hold period in
accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
Concurrently with the completion of the LIFE Offering, the
Company also issued 316,687 Units on a non-brokered basis to United
States Investors, at US$0.22
(equivalent of C$0.30) with
equivalent commercial terms for each warrant per Unit (the
"Concurrent Offering", and together with the LIFE Offering,
the "Offering"). The securities issued under the Concurrent
Offering remain subject to a hold period of four months plus one
day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable
securities legislation. Collectively with the LIFE Offering
and the Concurrent Offering a total of 7,015,353 Units were issued
in the Offering, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of
approximately C$2,104,606.
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid aggregate
finder fees of approximately C$107,968 in cash commissions and 359,893
non-transferrable Warrants of the Company exercisable until
December 28, 2026 to acquire one
Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.50 (the "Finder's Warrants"). The
Finder's Warrants are subject to a hold period of four months plus
one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable
securities legislation.
The Company will evaluate and may potentially close an
additional tranche of the Offering as it deems strategic based on
needs and fit with prospective investors, up to the maximum of
C$2,500,000.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the Offering for
sales and marketing expenditures, working capital requirements, and
to enhance its balance sheet to drive new business.
Insiders of the Company participated in the Offering for
approximately C$53,000 (equivalent of
USD$38,870), and such Units issued to
insiders are subject to a four month hold period pursuant to
applicable policies of the TSXV. The issuance of Units to insiders
may be considered a "related party transaction" within the meaning
of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security
Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company
is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation requirements of
MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.5(a) and the minority shareholder
approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.7(1)(a) in
respect of such insider participation as the fair market value of
the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, does
not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described in
this news release. Such securities have not been, and will not be,
registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or any state securities
laws, and, accordingly, may not be offered or sold within

Regulation S promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act, unless
registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws or pursuant to an exemption from such registration
requirements.
