EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 25, 2016) - OneSoft Solutions Inc. (the "Company" or "OneSoft") (TSX VENTURE:OSS), a North American developer of cloud business solutions is pleased to announce that it has received and closed on the initial subscriptions for a total of 13,333,333 units ("Units") at a price of $0.075 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000 by way of a private placement (the "Private Placement"). Each Unit is comprised of one (1) common share ("Common Share") and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one (1) additional Common Share at a price of $0.15 per Common Share for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the date of closing. After four months and one day following the closing date, the Company will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants if the closing price of the Company's common shares is equal to or exceeds $0.50 for twenty (20) consecutive trading days ("Price Trigger"). In the event of an acceleration, the expiry date of the Warrants will be accelerated to a date that is thirty (30) days after the Company issues a news release announcing that it has elected to exercise the acceleration right, or thirty (30) days after the date that written notice of acceleration has been given to the warrantholder. Thereafter, no further notification will be made by the Company to the subscriber. Notwithstanding satisfaction of the Price Trigger, the board of directors of the Company, in their sole discretion, may elect not to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrant and will issue a press release or written notice to the warrantholder to that effect. On February 11, 2016, OneSoft received conditional acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange to close on and issue up to 13,333,333 Units.
The Company has since received further acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange for up to an additional $250,000 for an over-subscription of the Private Placement, on the same terms. As a result of this over-subscribed amount, the TSX Venture Exchange has agreed to an extension of the final closing to, or about, March 4, 2016.
OneSoft intends to use the proceeds from this initial closing to fund new product development associated with the Microsoft Ventures Accelerator project that was announced on January 12, 2016 in connection with its wholly-owned subsidiary, OneBridge Solutions Inc., and for general working capital.
The participation in the Private Placement by certain of the directors of OneSoft is considered a "related party transaction" under Canadian Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"), but is otherwise exempt from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101.
Pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, the securities issued under the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period from the time of closing of the Private Placement. In addition, for US resident subscribers, the securities issued are "restricted securities" as defined under Rule 144(a)(3) of the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "U.S. Securities Act") and will contain the appropriate restrictive legends as required under the U.S. Securities Act.
