OTTAWA, Ontario, December 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. (TSX-V: YFI) (the " Company " ) announces a fully
committed, non-brokered Private Placement. The private placement consists of 1,666,666 units of the Company (each a
"Unit") at a price of $0.60 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000 (the "Offering ").
Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will
entitle the holder to acquire one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.75 per
share for a period of 2 years following the closing date of the Offering. The Offering is not subject to any minimum aggregate
subscription.
The Company will make the Offering available to subscribers in all provinces of Canada by way
of private placement to selected accredited investors and/or to qualified institutional investors and outside of Canada and the United States on a private placement or equivalent
basis.
"This is a landmark financing for the company at the highest level ever and we would like to thank all our shareholders for
their continued support of the company since its inception," said Andrew Skafel, President and CEO
of Edgewater Wireless. "This financing helps us expedite our aggressive path forward".
The closing of the Offering is subject to receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange. All securities issuable in connection with the Offering are subject to a four-month hold period from the date of
issuance, in accordance with applicable securities laws, unless otherwise exempted.
The Offering will be available to existing shareholders of the Company, who, as of the close of business on December 10, 2017, held securities of the Company (and who continue to hold such securities as of the closing
date), pursuant to the prospectus exemption set out in Section 2.9 of OSC Rule 45-501 - Distributions to Existing Security
Holders and in similar instruments in other jurisdictions in Canada (the "Existing
Shareholder Exemption"). The Existing Shareholder Exemption limits a shareholder to a maximum investment of CAD$15,000 in a 12-month period unless the shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the
investment and, if the shareholder is resident in a jurisdiction of Canada, that advice has been
obtained from a person that is registered as an investment dealer in the jurisdiction. If the Company receives subscriptions from
investors relying on the Existing Shareholder Exemption exceeding the maximum Offering, the Company may adjust the subscriptions
received on a pro-rata basis. The Company will also make the Offering available to subscribers under other available prospectus
exemptions. Finder's fees of 6% in units may be payable in accordance with the policies of the TSXV.
It is intended that the proceeds from the Offering will be used for Sales and Marketing Expenses (20%) Engineering and Product
Development (20%), Working Capital (40%) and Operating Expenses (20%). The Company may reallocate the proceeds from the Offering
as may be required depending upon the development of the Company's business.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
The securities offered have not been and will not be 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 applicable exemption
from the registration requirements. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to
buy nor will there be any sale of these securities in any province, state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or
sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such province, state or
jurisdiction.
