Vancouver, BC, August 27, 2019 - INVICTUS MD STRATEGIES CORP. ("Invictus" or the "Company") (TSXV: GENE; OTCQX: IVITF; FRA: 8IS1) is pleased to announce that Acreage Pharms Ltd. ("Acreage"), the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, has signed a non-binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") for a secured term loan of up to $6.0 million (the “Loan Amount”) with an interest rate of 10.0% per annum (the “Term Loan”) on drawn amounts with Trichome Financial Corp. ("Trichome Financial"). Invictus has also signed the Term Sheet as a guarantor of the Term Loan.  The funds drawn on the Term Loan will be used for the completion of the 90,000 square foot Phase III cultivation facility near Edson, Alberta, including the purchase of automated processing equipment and the development of the EU-GMP facility with the remainder to be used for general working capital purposes for both Acreage and the Company.

 

The Term Sheet includes a binding provision (the “Break Fee”) whereby, subject to TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”)  approval, the Company will be required to issue Trichome 1,000,000 common shares if the Company does not close the Term Loan on or before September 13, 2019 or such other mutually agreed upon date.

 

The proposed Term Loan matures 24 months after closing and is available in two tranches: one for $3.0 million advanced at the time of closing; and one for $3.0 million to be available no earlier than two months after closing, conditional upon Acreage having used the proceeds of the first tranche in the manner agreed between the parties and the loan being in good standing.

 

Consideration for the proposed Term Loan is anticipated to include:

 

  • such number of common shares of Invictus equal to 17% of the Loan Amount divided by the lower of: (i) $0.33; and (ii) the closing price of the common shares on the closing date of the Term Loan (each a “Bonus Share”); and  
  • such number of common share purchase warrants of Invictus equal to 15% of the Loan Amount divided by the lower of: (i) $0.33; and (ii) the closing price of the common shares on the closing date of the Term Loan (each a “Bonus Warrant”).  Each Bonus Warrant will be exercisable for a period of 24 months, subject to adjustment in accordance with section 2.2(e) of TSXV policy 5.1 and will have an exercise price of the lower of (i)  $0.33; and (ii) the closing price of the common shares on the closing date of the Term Loan.

The Term Sheet is generally non-binding, other than the Break Fee, and the terms as set out in any definitive agreements entered into between the parties may be different from those set out in the Term Sheet. Further, the terms of any definitive agreements, the issuance of the Bonus Warrants and the issuance of the Bonus Shares are subject to applicable corporate and regulatory approvals, including but not limited to, the approval of the TSXV.
