Waterloo, Ontario / TheNewswire / May 1 7 , 2018 -
SponsorsOne Inc. (CSE: SPO) (Frankfurt: 5SO) (the “Company”, or “SponsorsOne”) is pleased to announce it has entered into an
engagement letter with Emerging Equities Inc. (the “Agent”) to act as agent, on a reasonable best-efforts basis, in connection with
a proposed financing (the “Offering”) to be conducted by way of short form prospectus of up to 16,666,667 units (“Units”) of the
Company at a price of $0.18 per Unit (the "Offering Price") for gross proceeds of CA$3 million. Each Unit shall be comprised
of one common share (“Common Share”) and one half of a common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, being a “Warrant”).
The Company has also granted the Agent an option (the “Agent’s Option”) to increase the size of the Offering by up to an
additional 5,555,556 Units at $0.18 per Unit which Agent's Option is exercisable at any time up to 48 hours prior to
the closing of the Offering.
Each Warrant will be exercisable into one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.30 per Common Share for a
period of twelve (12) months following the Private Placement Closing Date (as defined below), provided that if the closing price at
which the Common Shares trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) (or any such other stock exchange in Canada as the
Common Shares may trade at the applicable time) exceed $0.55 for five (5) consecutive trading days at any time following the date
that is four (4) months and one (1) day after the closing date of the Offering, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the
Warrants (the “Reduced Warrant Term”) to the date that is twenty-one (21) calendar days following the date a press release is
issued by the Company announcing the Reduced Warrant Term.
The Company also announces it has completed a private placement ("Private Placement") of 1,568,440 special
warrants (“Special Warrants”) of the Company at $0.18 per special warrant for gross proceeds of $282,319 which form part of the
Offering. Each Special Warrant entitles the holder, for no additional consideration, to receive 1 Unit (the “Underlying
Securities”) on the earlier of: (i) the date that is 120 days following the closing date of the Private Placement (the “Private
Placement Closing Date”); and (ii) the date the Company obtains a receipt for a final short form prospectus qualifying the
distribution of the securities comprising the Units (the “Qualification Condition”). The Company will use its best efforts to
satisfy the Qualification Condition on or before the date that is 60 days following the Private Placement Closing Date (the
“Qualification Deadline”). If the Qualification Condition does not occur before the Qualification Deadline, each holder of a
Special Warrant shall be entitled to receive, without any action on their part, to 0.1 of a Common Share in addition to the
Underlying Securities. The issuance of Units on conversion of the Special Warrants will be qualified under the Prospectus. Unless
the Qualification Condition occurs, securities issued in connection with the Private Placement will be subject to a 4-month hold
period from the Private Placement Closing Date.
The Units will be offered by way of a short form prospectus (the “Prospectus”) to be filed in British Columbia,
Alberta and Ontario and in any other provinces as the Agent and the Company may agree. The Prospectus will also qualify the
Underlying Securities for distribution.
The Agent will receive a cash commission equal to 10% of aggregate gross proceeds raised from the Offering
(including the Private Placement) as well as compensation options (the “Compensation Options”) equal to 10% of the number of Units
and Special Warrants sold, including any amount subscribed for pursuant to the exercise of the Agent’s Option. The Compensation
Options shall be exercisable into Units at a price of $0.18 per Unit at any time up to 24 months following the closing date of the
Offering. As a result of the Offering, Mr. Myles Bartholomew has rescinded his National Instrument 45-102 - Notice of Resale
of Securities, dated and filed on SEDAR May 9, 2018.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any of the
securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United
States Securities Act of 1933 , as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be
