MONTREAL , June 18, 2021 /CNW/ - Lumiera Health Inc. (TSXV: NHP) (the " Company " or " Lumiera "), a company specializing in the development and commercialization of natural health products, is announcing that it intends to sell, on a private placement basis, in one or more tranches, up to 52,000,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.025 per Unit, for gross proceeds to the Company of up to $1 .3 million. The issue price of the Units is equal to the closing price of the Lumiera shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on June 17, 2021 .
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional Common Share, at an exercise price of $0.06 per share, for a period of four years from the date of issuance.
The Company intends to include an acceleration clause in the certificates representing the Warrants whereby the Company may accelerate the expiry of these Warrants at any time prior to the expiry date in the event the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares of the Company on the TSX Venture Exchange exceeds $0.12 for at least 10 consecutive trading days by providing written notice to the warrant holders (the " Acceleration Notice "). The Warrants will, unless exercised, expire on the 30th day after the Company provides the Acceleration Notice.
The Company may pay registered dealers a cash commission equal to up to 7.5% of the aggregate proceeds raised in the private placement and issue broker warrants entitling such dealers to purchase such number of Units equal to up to 7.5% of the aggregate of number of Units issued in the private placement, at the same issue price as the Units. The final terms of the broker warrants will be confirmed prior to closing.
The offering is expected to close on or before July 9, 2021 . The net proceeds from the private placement are intended to be used for working capital to support revenue growth and for general corporate purposes. " We have made great progress in the past couple of months and the added capital will enable us to accelerate our growth as we continue on our expected path toward profitability", said Carlos Ponce , CEO of Lumiera.
The closing of the private placement is subject to certain standard conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.
