REYKJAVIK, ICELAND / ACCESSWIRE / November 11, 2024 / GreenBank Capital (CSE:GBC)(OTCMKTS:GRNBF)(FRA:2TL) ("GreenBank" or the "Company") is pleased to update its shareholders on the current status of its financing initiatives.
The Company is initiating a non-brokered $300,000 private placement offering (the "Offering") of 15,000,000 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.02 per Unit, each Unit being comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Greenbank common share at an exercise price of C$0.075 for a term of 2 years . The Offering is the continuation of the Company's private placement financing originally announced on 16th November 2023.
The Company also proposes to complete the debt settlement originally announced 16th May 2024 (the "Debt Conversion") with certain of its creditors by issuing them units (each, a "Debt Conversion Unit") at a deemed price of $0.05 per Debt Conversion Unit, each Debt Conversion Unit being comprised of one common share and one Warrant (with the Warrant having the same terms as the Warrants under the Offering). The Company anticipates eliminating up to approximately $450,000 in debt pursuant to the Debt Conversion, including $350,000 in debt owed to its current and past directors and officers.
The Company expects to close the Offering and Debt Conversion in one or more tranches, with the first tranche expected to close on or before 15th November 2024.
The debt conversion with present and past directors and officers and companies owned or controlled by them will be a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The Company will be relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the participation in the offering by insiders will not exceed 25 per cent of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company will not be filing a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering and Debt Conversion, a decision which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances as to be able to avail itself of the proceeds of the Offering in an expeditious manner.
