Share Issue
The Board of Directors of Belgravia Hartford has unanimously approved the issuance of 8,910,000 common shares of Belgravia Hartford (the "Bonus Shares") to members of Belgravia Hartford management (the "Recipients") for past services provided by the Recipients. The Bonus Shares issued to Belgravia management after a review by and upon the unanimous recommendation of the Board's independent Compensation Committee. Bonus Shares are being issued in lieu of cash payment in recognition of their significant contributions to the Company in achieving among other things material net asset value growth since completion of the Company's business change in 2017 from IC Potash Corp. to Belgravia Hartford, which contributions the Board concluded were substantially in excess of those contemplated in their consulting services agreements with the Company. From Q4 2016 until end of Q4 2020 the Company's debt to asset position went from approximately $28M in debt while holding the Ochoa asset in New Mexico, USA (Ochoa asset ownership was diluted away due to previous management agreements). Currently the Company has approximately $15M in net assets. The Bonus Shares represent approximately 11% of the net asset growth since the business change from IC Potash Corp. to the end of 2020 Q4 as Belgravia Hartford Capital.
The Bonus Shares which will be issued at a price of $0.20 consistent with CSE policies will represent approximately 18.42% of the total issued and outstanding shares after completion of the issue. No new insiders will be created, nor will any change of control occur, as a result of the issuance of the Bonus Shares. The Bonus Shares will be subject to a four month hold period pursuant to applicable securities laws. In addition, the Recipients of the Bonus Shares have agreed to enter into voluntary lock-up agreements which will restrict the trading of the Bonus Shares for one year from the date of issuance. The Company is relying on an exemption from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101") for the issue of Bonus Shares because the fair market value of the Bonus Shares received by the Related Parties does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.
The Recipients of the Bonus Shares include Macher Inc., a corporation controlled by Mehdi Azodi, President and CEO of the Company, acquired 6,180,000 Bonus Shares representing 12.77% of the total issued and outstanding shares. As a result, Macher Inc., either directly or indirectly, will exercise control over 17.08% of the total issued and outstanding shares. PLK Accounting and Finance Inc., a corporation controlled by Paul Kania, CFO of the Company, acquired 1,800,000 Bonus Shares representing 3.72% of the total issued and outstanding shares. As a result, PLK Accounting and Finance Inc. will, either directly or indirectly, exercise control over 3.95% of the total issued and outstanding shares. Spark Corp., a corporation controlled by Deena Siblock, COO of the Company, acquired 930,000 Bonus Shares representing 1.92% of the total issued and outstanding shares and, as a result, she will, either directly or indirectly, exercise control over 2.02% of the total issued and issued shares. The total issued and outstanding shares of the Company will be 48,384,248 after completion of the issue of the Bonus Shares. The issue of the Bonus Shares has been completed within the price protection time period under the CSE rules.
