This release is intended for distribution in Canada only and is not intended for distribution to United States newswire services or for dissemination in the United States


TORONTO, Nov. 01, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Datametrex AI Limited (the “Company” or “Datametrex”) (TSXV:DM) (FSE:D4G) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of up to 50,000,000 units (each a “Unit”) at a price of $0.10 per Unit, for gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000 (the “Offering”). The Company has the option to increase the size of the Offering by up to 15% at any time up to 48 hours before the closing the Offering.

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant exercisable into one common share at a price of $0.15 for a period of 18 months after closing of the Offering (the “Warrant Expiry Date”). In the event that the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange equals or exceeds $0.20 per common share for any period of 15 consecutive trading days, the Company may, at its option, within 10 business days following such 15-day period, accelerate the Warrant Expiry Date by issuing a press release (a “Warrant Acceleration Press Release”), and, in such case, the Warrant Expiry Date shall be deemed to be 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the 15th day following the issuance of the Warrant Acceleration Press Release.

The Units are being issued in connection with the previously announced acquisition of 9172-8766 Quebec Inc. (doing business as Nexalogy Environics) (“Nexalogy”) and 9225-6965 Quebec Inc., an affiliate of Nexalogy, pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated September 25, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”). A copy of the Purchase Agreement can be found on the Company’s SEDAR profile. 

Upon satisfaction of certain conditions in the Purchase Agreement (the “Release Conditions”), the closing of the Offering will occur. The Company expects the Release Conditions to be satisfied on or about November 20, 2017. In the event that the Release Conditions are not satisfied by December 20, 2017, the proceeds of the Offering will be returned to subscribers, without interest.

The Company may, as compensation to individuals that introduce subscribers to the Company (a “Finder”), and subject to regulatory approval: (i) pay cash commissions; and (ii) issue non-transferable common share purchase warrants (with identical terms as those warrants issued under the Offering) equal to 8% of the gross aggregate proceeds (the “Finder’s Fee”) of a subscription made by a subscriber who is introduced to the Company by such Finder upon satisfaction of the Release Conditions.

The Offering is subject to certain conditions, including (but not limited to) the receipt of approval from the TSX Venture Exchange. The securities issued in connection with this private placement will be subject to a four-month hold period. Insiders may participate in the Offering.
