(TheNewswire)
August 2, 2024– TheNewswire – VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA –Planet Ventures Inc. (CSE: PXI)(the “Company” or “Planet Ventures”) announces the filing of an early warning report (the “Early Warning Report”) pursuant to the requirements of National Instrument 62-103 – The Early Warning System and Related Take-Over Bid and Insider Reporting Issues (“NI 62-103”) and National Instrument 62-104 – Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids (“NI 62-104”) in respect of the common shares (“Tisdale Shares”) in the capital of Tisdale Clean Energy Corp. (“Tisdale”). Tisdale is a corporation with its head office located at 885 West Georgia Street, Suite 2200, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3E8.
On July 31, 2024, Tisdale announced the closing of its non-brokered private placement of units (the “Offering”). On closing of the Offering, Tisdale issued an aggregate of 5,654,666 Tisdale Shares and 5,829,666 Tisdale Share purchase warrants.
Immediately prior to closing of the Offering, the Company held 2,937,778 Tisdale Shares, 2,777,778 Tisdale Share purchase warrants (the “February Warrants”) and 1,111,111 Tisdale Share purchase warrants (the “December Warrants” and together with the February Warrants, the “Warrants”), representing approximately 9.32% of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares on an undiluted basis and 12.33% on a partially diluted basis (based on an aggregate of 31,535,078 Tisdale Shares issued and outstanding). Each February Warrant enables the Company to acquire one Tisdale Share at an exercise price of $0.30, for a period expiring on February 1, 2026. Each December Warrant enables the Company to acquire one Tisdale Share at an exercise price of $0.30, for a period expiring on December 22, 2025. Subsequently to the closing of the Offering, the Company entered into a letter agreement dated August 2, 2024, between the Company and Tisdale, pursuant to which all Warrants held by the Company are subject to a ten percent (10.0%) blocker provision that restricts the exercise of the Warrants in the event such exercise would result in the Company holding ten percent (10.0%) or more of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares at such time.
Immediately following closing of the Offering, the Company held 2,937,778 Tisdale Shares and an aggregate of 3,888,889 Warrants, representing approximately 7.90% of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares on an undiluted basis and 10.46% of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares on a partially diluted basis (based on an aggregate of 37,189,744 Tisdale Shares issued and outstanding).
As a result of the series of transactions described above, the Company has ceased to beneficially own ten percent (10.0%) or more of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares. Accordingly, the Company is no longer required to file early warning reports pursuant to the requirements of NI 62-103 and NI 62-104 unless the Company’s beneficial ownership or control of the securities of Tisdale increases to or above ten percent (10.0%) of the issued and outstanding Tisdale Shares.
The Company holds the Tisdale Shares and Warrants in the ordinary course of business and for investment purposes. In pursuing such purposes, the Company reserves to formulate other plans or make other proposals and take such actions deemed necessary with respect to its investment in Tisdale. Depending on market conditions and other factors, the Company may, from time to time, increase or decrease its beneficial ownership of the securities of Tisdale as deemed appropriate.
This news release is being issued in connection with the filing of the Early Warning Report pursuant to the requirements of NI 62-103 and NI 62-104. A copy of the Early Warning Report will be filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and may also be obtained by contacting: Etienne Moshevich, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, at info@planetventures.com or (604) 681-0084.
Normal Course Issuer Bid
The Company further announces that further to its news release dated July 16, 2024, the Company has amended its current normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) to allow for the Company to acquire up to approximately 10,531,283 common shares in the capital of the Company (“Shares”), representing five percent (5.0%) of the Company’s current issued and outstanding Shares as of the date hereof. This amendment results in a decrease from the previously announced NCIB authorization of up to approximately 16,867,115 Shares, representing ten percent (10.0%) of the Company’s Public Float (as that term is defined pursuant to the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange). The amendments to the NCIB will become effective on August 2, 2024 and the NCIB continues to end on July 16, 2025, unless the maximum number of Shares authorized for repurchase through the NCIB is repurchased prior to such date or the Company provides earlier notice of termination.
Although the Company intends to purchase Shares under the NCIB, there can be no assurance that any such purchases will be completed. The actual number of Shares purchased, timing of purchases and purchase price will depend upon the prevailing market conditions, subject to applicable securities law requirements. All Shares acquired by the Company pursuant to the NCIB will be returned to treasury and cancelled.
