LEAF Mobile Inc. (TSXV: LEAF) ("
LEAF" or the
"
Company") is pleased to announce that it has
filed in each of the provinces of Canada (excepting Quebec), and
received a receipt for, a final short form prospectus (the
“
Prospectus”) with respect to its public offering
(the “
Offering”) of subscription receipts (the
“
Subscription Receipts”) in connection with its
acquisition of East Side Games Inc. (“
East Side
Games”).
The Offering will consist of 88,888,888
Subscription Receipts at a price of $0.225 per Subscription
Receipt, for gross proceeds of $20 million, offered through a
syndicate of agents including Eight Capital and Haywood Securities
Inc. as co-lead agents (collectively the “Co-Lead
Agents”), Paradigm Capital Inc. and Scotia Capital Inc. on
a best-efforts basis. Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the
holder thereof to receive, upon satisfaction of certain release and
issuance conditions as set out in the Prospectus (including the
satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent to the
Acquisition (as defined below), other than the payment of the
purchase price), one LEAF Share.
The Agents have been granted an over-allotment
option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), exercisable
at any time, in whole or in part, to purchase up to an additional
15% of the total Subscription Receipts sold under the Offering, for
a 30 day period commencing upon the closing of the Offering, for a
maximum of 13,333,333 Subscription Receipts, at $0.225 per
Subscription Receipt, for additional gross proceeds of $3.0
million. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised after the
conversion of the Subscription Receipts into LEAF Shares, LEAF will
issue LEAF Shares in lieu of additional Subscription Receipts.
LEAF intends to use the net proceeds of the
Offering primarily to fund the cash consideration payable under the
previously announced acquisition by the Company of EastSide Games
(the “Acquisition”) and as detailed in the
Prospectus. Completion of the Acquisition is conditional upon
completion of the Offering.
Upon closing of the Acquisition, LEAF will be
one Canada’s largest mobile gaming companies, with a combined
portfolio of 10 games and $80 million of annualized revenue, based
on the first three quarters of 2020.
The Offering and the Acquisition are anticipated
to close on or about February 4, 2021 and February 5, 2021,
respectively. Each of the Offering and the Acquisition is subject
to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of
all necessary prior approvals.
The Prospectus contains important information
relating to the Subscription Receipts, the Offering and the
Acquisition, and has been filed in each province of Canada, other
than Quebec, and may be subject to amendment. A copy of the
Prospectus can be obtained under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com.
