Received Lead Order for $250,000
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 4, 2022) - Mijem Newcomm Tech Inc. (CSE: MJEM) ("Mijem" or the "Company"), a social media and technology company, announces its intention to raise $750,000 through a senior secured convertible debt financing. The Company is pleased to announce that it has received a lead order for $250,000 from an existing investor.
"We are pleased to see continued support from our existing shareholders in this new financing," said Laurie Freudenberg, CEO of Mijem. "With current cash on hand and this new financing, Mijem will be well positioned to grow adoption of our app across university and college campuses throughout North America. Our digital campaigns and go-to-market strategy are beginning to show results, and this capital will enable us to accelerate driving users to the platform."
The use of proceeds will be used for sales and marketing, specifically focused on driving user growth, ongoing feature enhancements, and general working capital requirements.
Terms of the Financing
Under the terms of the Convertible Debenture Financing, each Convertible Debenture consists of $1,000 face value and matures thirty-six (36) months from the date of the issuance (the "Maturity Date"), and bears interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (the "Interest"), which will accrue annually until conversion or maturity.
Each Convertible Debenture will be convertible into Common Shares at the option of the holder at any time after the one-year anniversary from the date of issuance and before the close of the third business day prior to the Maturity Date. Each Convertible Debenture will convert at a price equal to a 20% discount to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares (subject to CSE minimum pricing rules) for the ten day period ending on the one-year anniversary from the date of issue (the "Initial Conversion Price").
At the option of the Corporation, with 20 days written notice, the Convertible Debentures may be converted into Common Shares upon Maturity at a conversion price that is the lesser of (i) the Initial Conversion Price or (ii) a 25% discount to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares for the ten day period ending on the Maturity Date (subject to CSE rules/minimum).
The Convertible Debentures will be senior secured obligations of the Corporation secured by a general security agreement over all of the Corporation's present and after-acquired property. The financing is subject to a minimum subscription condition of $750,000 of Convertible Debentures.
Closing of the Offering is subject to the Corporation obtaining all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals. The Convertible Debentures and any common shares issued on the conversion of the Convertible Debentures will be subject to a statutory hold period in Canada of four months and one day following issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws. Additional resale restrictions may be applicable under the laws of other jurisdictions, if any.
