(0YL.F) ("Else" or the
"Company"), the Plant-Based baby, toddler, and
children nutrition company, today announced that it has entered
into an agreement with a single, healthcare-focused institutional
investor for the purchase and sale of 13,245,033 Units (the
“Units”) of the Company (collectively, the “Offering”), which will
be sold at an issue price of US$0.151 per Unit (the “Issue Price”),

scheduled to close on, or shortly after, June 28, 2024, and is
subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the

marketing, acquire inventory, and for general corporate purposes.
Each Unit will be comprised of one common share
in the capital of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one Common
Share purchase Warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will be
exercisable immediately to acquire one Common Share at a price of
US$0.151 per Common Share and will expire five years after
issuance.
In connection with the Offering, the Company
plans to file a prospectus supplement (the "Supplement") to its
short form base shelf prospectus dated November 10, 2023 (the "Base
Shelf Prospectus") with the securities commissions in each of the
provinces of Canada, excluding Quebec.
The Preliminary Supplement and the Base Shelf
Prospectus contain important detailed information about the Company
and the proposed Offering. Prospective investors should read the
Preliminary Supplement, the Base Shelf Prospectus and the other
documents the Company has filed before making an investment
decision. Copies of the Prospectus Supplement, following filing
thereof, and the Base Shelf Prospectus will be available on SEDAR+
at www.sedarplus.com.
The Company has also agreed, subject to the
receipt of Toronto Stock Exchange approval, that certain existing
warrants issued in June 2022 (as amended in January of 2024) and
November 2023 (together, the “Amended Warrants”) to purchase,
collectively, up to an aggregate of 15,857,142 Common Shares at an
exercise price of C$0.485 per Common Share, will be reduced so that
the exercise price of such warrants will be US$0.151 per Common
Share, effective upon the closing of the Offering or thereafter if
required by the Toronto Stock Exchange. Additionally, the Amended
Warrants shall expire five years from the closing of the Offering.
All other terms of these warrants shall remain the same.
