TORONTO, Aug. 15, 2014 /CNW/ - Further to Lorne Park
Capital Partners Inc.'s (TSX-V: LPC) ("LPCP" or the
"Corporation") news release of June
10, 2014, the Corporation is pleased to announce it has
closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement
offering of non-convertible and unsecured debentures of the
Corporation (the "Debentures") for an aggregate principal
amount of CAD$2,311,000 (the
"Placement"). The Placement is subject to final
approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Debentures have been issued as of August 15, 2014 (the "Closing Date") and
will mature on and become payable on August
15, 2019. The Debentures bear an interest at a fixed
rate of 8% per annum. The Debentures are direct, unsecured
obligations of the Corporation, ranking equally with all other
unsecured indebtedness of the Corporation.
The Corporation has also issued to the Debenture subscribers an
aggregate of 577,750 warrants (the "Warrants"), each of
which entitles a Debenture holder to purchase one common share of
the Corporation at an exercise price of $0.40 per common share for a period of one year
from the Closing Date. The Warrants will not be traded on the TSX
Venture Exchange, but the common shares issuable on the exercise of
the Warrants (the "Warrant Shares") will be listed.
All of the securities issued in connection with the Placement
are subject to a four-month hold period under applicable Canadian
securities laws expiring December 16,
2014.
The net proceeds of the Placement will be used as previously
announced in the news release of June 10,
2014. Subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange,
the Corporation expects to raise additional funds in another
offering later this year.
Insiders of the Corporation purchased $306,000 of the Placement. The Placement is
considered to be a related party transaction as defined under
Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The
Placement is exempt from the formal valuation and minority
shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair
market value of securities being issued to insiders nor the
consideration being paid by insiders will exceed 25% of the
Corporation's market capitalization.
