Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 5, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), Newgioco Group, Inc. (the "Company")
closed a Subscription Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of unaffiliated
accredited investors (the "Investors").
Under the Agreement, the Investors agreed to purchase up to 1,000 (US Dollar)
unsecured Debenture Units from us to raise up to $1,000,000 in gross proceeds.
On June 5, 2017, the Investors puchased 150 (CDN Dollar) units and the Company
issued Debentures for the total principal amount of CDN $150,000 (approx.
US $111,000)(the "Principal Amount") to the Investors.
Each Debenture Unit is comprised of (i) the issuance of CDN $1,000 of debentures
bearing interest at a rate of 10% per annum, with a minimum maturity period of
five (5) months to a maximum of two (2) years from the date of issuance,
(ii) 100 warrants which may be exercised at $1.00 per warrant to receive one
common share prior to June 5, 2019, and (iii) the whole or any part of the
principal amount of the Debenture plus any accrued and unpaid interest may be
converted into common shares of the Company at a fixed price of $1.50 per share
at any time up to June 5, 2019. The Debenture shall be designated as Debenture
Due June 5, 2019.
The Debentures are issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
and therefore are not registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws
of any state of the United States and cannot be offered, sold, pledged or
otherwise transferred or assigned in the United States or to a resident of the
United States unless an exemption from such registration requirements is
available. This Debenture has not been and will not be qualified for sale or
registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction and any transferee should
refer to the securities laws of any jurisdiction applicable to them.
The Company paid finders fees of CDN $7,500 to Dominick Inc. and legal fees of
CDN $2,500 to facilitate the transaction resulting in net proceeds of
CDN $140,000.
Dominick Inc. is a leading Canadian investment dealer with employees in Toronto,
Montreal & Calgary. The firm descends from one of the oldest, continuously
operating financial institutions in North America, New York based
Dominick & Dickerman. Operations commenced in Canada in 1929 and now include
