Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 14, 2024) - Eddy Smart Home Solutions Ltd. (TSXV: EDY) ("Eddy" or the "Company") announces that the Company will hold its upcoming annual general and special meeting on June 17, 2024 (the "Meeting"). At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to elect the Company's directors, appoint the Company's auditor, approve a share consolidation (the "Consolidation"), approve the recently announced non-brokered private placement involving the potential creation of Mr. Mark Silver as a "control person" (the "Offering"), and adopt a new omnibus equity incentive plan.
As previously announced, the Offering is for gross proceeds of up to $8,000,000 comprised of up to 5,333,333 post-consolidation (following a 1 for 100 consolidation) common shares of the Company at $1.50 per post-consolidation share. Pursuant to the Offering, Mark Silver, the Company's CEO and Chairman, has agreed, either directly or through companies controlled by Mr. Silver, to subscribe for a minimum of 885,787 post- consolidation shares for $1,328,680 (the "Silver Minimum Subscription"). In addition, and if any amount of the Offering is unsubscribed for following the participation of other investors, Mr. Silver has agreed to subscribe, either directly or through related parties, for the balance of the Offering.
The proceeds of the Offering will be used to repay the Company's existing credit facilities and for general working capital purposes. Of the existing credit facilities, $1,163,880 is expected to be owed, on closing, to Shalcor Management Inc. ("Shalcor"), a company controlled by Mr. Silver, for cash advances provided by Shalcor to the Company. As part of the Silver Minimum Subscription, this debt amount of $1,163,880 shall be converted to 775,920 post-consolidation common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $1.50 per post-consolidation share (the "Debt Conversion"). The Company intends to complete the Consolidation by the end of June and the Debt Conversion, together with the Offering, as soon as possible thereafter. The Company will provide further updates in due course as appropriate.
The Debt Conversion, together with the Offering, are subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V"). The full details regarding the Consolidation, the Offering, including the Debt Conversion, and other matters to be approved at the Meeting, will be found in the Company's proxy related materials, including its notice of annual general and special meeting of shareholders and management information circular (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under the Company's profile on or around May 24, 2024.
