/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/
VANCOUVER, BC and WILMINGTON, Mass., Nov. 28, 2024 /CNW/ – November 28, 2024 – Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. (“Liberty” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB: LDDFF) (FRANKFURT: LD2A), a leading technology provider of AI-based next generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, is pleased to announce a proposed non-brokered private placement of up to 25,000,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) at $0.32 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $8,000,000 (the “Offering”).
Each Unit will consist of one common shares (a “Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.55 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.
Bill Frain stated, “Nearly four years after going public and securing over $40 million to advance HEXWAVE technology – from patents to commercialization – we are now shifting our focus from engineering to scaling Liberty into a global leader in security. Our top priorities are to expand our customer base, accelerate deployments, and strengthen partnerships across key verticals. This latest offering empowers our team at Liberty to expedite our roll out of HEXWAVE and TSA funded High Definition Advance Imaging Technology, both AI empowered technologies which are designed to protect critical infrastructure from emerging threats.”
The Warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry if, any time after the closing date of the Offering, the closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”), or such other market as the Shares may trade from time to time, is or exceeds $0.70 for any five (5) consecutive trading days, in which event the holders of the Warrant may, at the Company’s election, be given notice and the Company will issue a press release announcing that the Warrants will expire 5 days following the date of such press release. The Warrants may be exercised by the holder of the Warrant during the 5-day period between the date of the press release announcing the accelerated expiry date and the expiration of the Warrants.
Finder’s fees may be payable in connection with the completion of the Offering in accordance with TSXV policies. The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be utilized by the Company for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Concurrent with the Offering, the Company also intends to settle a total of up to $500,000 of indebtedness with certain creditors (the “Shares for Debt Settlement”) by issuing up to 1,562,500 Shares at a deemed price of $0.32 per Share.
All securities issued in connection with closing of each of the Offering and Shares for Debt Settlement will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance of the Units or Shares, as applicable, in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
Closing of the Offering is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including that of the TSXV.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
The Company would like to confirm that there are 16,764,347 common shares outstanding as a result of the consolidation of its common shares prior to any issuances from the Offering or the Shares for Debt Settlement announced today.
