TORONTO, Dec. 1, 2021 /CNW/ - Mimi's Rock
Corp. (the "Company") is pleased to announce the
closing of its $1.5 million
non-brokered private placement of subordinated secured debentures
(the "Placement").
Placement of Subordinated Secured Debentures
The Company announces today that it has closed its non-brokered
private placement of $1.5 million of
subordinated secured debentures (the "Debentures")
consisting of $10,000 principal
amount per Debenture (the "Principal Amount"). The
Debentures will mature on November 24,
2023 (the "Maturity Date") and will bear a 10.0% p.a.
total cash yield, consisting of an 8.0% p.a., payable quarterly and
an annual maintenance fee of 2%, paid annually in advance.
In connection with the Placement, subscribers were granted 3,571
common shares of the Company (each, a "Bonus Share") for
each $10,000 of Principal Amount of
Debentures or 560,706 Bonus Shares in the aggregate.
Proceeds of the Placement are expected to be used by the Company
for working capital and general corporate purposes.
In connection with the Placement, the Company paid a cash
commission equal to up to 5% of the gross proceeds from the sale of
Debentures (the "Cash Fee") sold pursuant to the Placement
(other than in respect of proceeds from sales to persons on a
"president's list", in respect of which no fee was paid), or
$66,000 in the aggregate, and such
number of non-transferrable compensation warrants (the
"Compensation Warrants") as is equal to 5% of the gross
proceeds from the sale of Debentures sold pursuant to the Placement
(other than in respect of proceeds from sales to persons on a
"president's list", in respect of which no fee was paid) divided
by $0.28, or 66,000
Compensation Warrants in the aggregate. Each Compensation Warrant
entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the
Company at $0.50 per share until
November 24, 2022.
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.
In connection with the Placement, the Company issued an
aggregate $150,000 principal amount
of Debentures and 53,571 Common Shares to affiliates of Hueniken
Asset Management Inc. ("Hueniken"). The issuance of
such securities to Hueniken, an 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 securities distributed to Hueniken pursuant to
the Placement, nor the consideration paid by Hueniken exceeded
$2,500,000).
