Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Item 3.02 | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities |
On August 11, 2016, Lexaria announced that it has closed the private placement equity financing announced on July 5, 2016.
The financing was for 1,558,525 equity units priced at US$0.06; each equity unit consisting of one common share of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period of two years from the date of issuance, at a purchase price of US$0.14; in order to raise gross proceeds of US$93,511.50 (the "Private Placement"). After the issuance of these shares, the Company will have 48,021,811 shares issued and outstanding.
All funds raised of US$93,511.50 will be used to continue deployment and marketing of hemp based food products, for investor relations, and for G&A and general working capital.
The securities issued will be subject to a hold period in Canada of four months and one day, or for any resales into the USA under Rule 144, six months and one day. The Private Placement is subject to normal regulatory approvals. An insider of the Company subscribed for US$27,000.
Lexaria also announces it has enhanced the existing services of Frontier Merchant Capital Group (Frontier) with a head office in Toronto, Canada for a cost of US$35,931.50 for new services provided over the one-year contract. Frontier will continue to assist the Company by increasing market awareness utilizing a number of financial market communication initiatives. The core of these will be facilitating in-person introduction for the Company with institutional and retail brokers and investors in cities across Canada, the US, and potentially Europe.
The securities referred to herein will not be or have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
