VANCOUVER, May 24, 2018 /CNW/ - Universal mCloud Corp.
(TSX-V: MCLD) ("mCloud" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to its press release issued on
May 1, 2018, it has closed the final tranche of its non-brokered private placement (the
"Offering").
Under the Offering, the Company issued a total of 15,716,287 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.35 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of 5,500,702.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company, with
each warrant exercisable at a price of $0.45 per share for a period of 36 months following closing,
subject to accelerated expiration if the 10-day weighted average trading price of the Company's common shares is at any time
greater than $0.80.
The Company has agreed to compensate finders who introduce purchasers in the Offering. In connection with the completion of
the second tranche of the Offering, various finders received: (a) a cash commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds from the
sale of Units to subscribers introduced by the finder under the second tranche of the Offering, and (b) that number of finder
warrants which is equal to 7% of the number of Units sold to subscribers introduced by the finder under the second tranche of the
Offering, with each finder warrant being exercisable for one common share of the Company at a price of $0.35 per share for a period of two years from the date of issuance.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for its recently announced China expansion, M&A activities and has recently commenced investment in extensive wind turbine data
capture via the use of highly precise drone technology in North America.
"We are pleased with the significant interest we are seeing from investors provincially and nationally, as well as
internationally, in Europe, and China," said Russel
McMeekin, President and CEO of mCloud. "Their support continues to validate Industrial AI and Analytics offerings as high-profile
investment opportunities worldwide."
All securities issued by the Company under the Offering are subject to a statutory four month hold period in accordance with
applicable securities legislation.
