Eyecarrot Announces Closing Of Financing

Eyecarrot Innovations Corp (TSXV:EYC, OTCQB:EYCCF), is pleased to announce the closing of a previously announced non-brokered private placement for total proceeds of $1,600,000. The Company issued a total of 16,000,000 units at $0.10 per unit, each unit comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Share”) and one transferable common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) until November 24, 2019 at a purchase price of $0.20 per Warrant Share, subject to an accelerated conversion provision (the “Provision”). The Provision indicates that in the event that the closing price of the Company’s shares exceeds $0.30 per share for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, at the Company’s election, the 24-month period within which the warrants are exercisable will be reduced and the holders of the warrants will have 30 days from the date of notification of the Company of such election to exercise the Warrants.
Aggregate finder’s fees of $13,500 in cash and 135,000 finder’s warrants were paid to registrants. Each finder’s warrant has the same terms as the warrants forming part of the units, provided that the finder’s warrants are non-transferable.
All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period expiring on March 24, 2018. Further restrictions may apply to certain subscribers under foreign securities laws.
Insiders participated in the Private Placement acquiring an aggregate of 2,500,000 units on the same basis as other subscribers. The participation in the Private Placement by insiders of the Company constitutes a “related party transaction” as such term is defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements under MI 61-101. The Company relied on Section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the formal valuation requirement and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the minority shareholder approval requirement of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the Private Placement in so far as the Private Placement involved interested parties did not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
