FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Our disclosure and analysis in this Current Report on Form 8-K contains some forward-looking statements. Certain of the matters discussed concerning our operations, cash flows, financial position, economic performance and financial condition, and the effect of economic conditions include forward-looking statements. Statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions or that include words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates" and similar expressions are forward-looking statements. Although we believe that these statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, including projections of orders, sales, operating margins, earnings, cash flow, research and development costs, working capital, capital expenditures and other projections, they are subject to several risks and uncertainties. Investors are cautioned that our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and the actual results or developments may differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements.

 

As for the forward-looking statements that relate to future financial results and other projections, actual results will be different due to the inherent uncertainty of estimates, forecasts and projections may be better or worse than projected. Given these uncertainties, you should not place any reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements also represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date that they were made. We expressly disclaim a duty to provide updates to these forward-looking statements, and the estimates and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this filing to reflect events or changes in circumstances or changes in expectations or the occurrence of anticipated events. You are advised, however, to consult any additional disclosures we make in our reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K, or their successors.

On December 30, 2015, the Company completed a secured debt and warrant financing of $2,086,000 through the offering of units by way of private placement, with each unit consisting of (i) a 12% secured convertible debenture with a maturity date of five years from issuance and (ii) ten (10) five year common share purchase warrants, vesting in 1/3 implements and having an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The units were sold at $1.00 per unit.

The offer and sale of all securities listed above to all non-U.S. citizens or entities were affected in reliance on the exemptions for sales of securities not involving a public offering, as set forth in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). The Investor acknowledged the following: Subscriber is not a United States Person, nor is the Subscriber acquiring the securities directly or indirectly for the account or benefit of a United States Person. None of the funds used by the Subscriber to purchase the securities have been obtained from United States Persons. For purposes of this Agreement, "United States Person" within the meaning of U.S. tax laws, means a citizen or resident of the United States, any former U.S. citizen subject to Section 877 of the Internal Revenue Code, any corporation, or partnership organized or existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state, jurisdiction, territory or possession thereof and any estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax irrespective of its source, and within the meaning of U.S. securities laws, as defined in Rule 902(o) of Regulation S, means: (i) any natural person resident in the United States; (ii) any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States; (iii) any estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. person; (iv) any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person; (v) any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the United States; (vi) any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a U.S. person; (vii) any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an individual) resident in the United States; and (viii) any partnership or corporation if organized under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, and formed by a U.S. person principally for the purpose of investing in securities not registered under the Securities Act, unless it is organized or incorporated, and owned, by accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a)) who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.

 

In addition, on July 15, 2015, the Company reported the completion of a secured debt financing of US $4.5 Million of 12% Secured Debentures (the “Secured Debentures”). The holders of the Secured Debentures (the “Holders”) have agreed to consent to the offering above, extend the maturity date of the Secured Debentures from December 31, 2015 to July 15, 2020, and are provided with the right to amend the Secured Debenture such that a Holder shall have the right, at any time after the earlier of (i) six (6) months from the date of first issuance of any subsequent Debentures; and (ii) June 30, 2016, to require the Company to satisfy the outstanding obligations underlying the Secured Debenture; provided, however, that at least two thirds (66.67%) of the Holders of the principal amount of the Secured Debentures consent to a put of their Secured Debentures to the Company.
