LIGHT AI ANNOUNCES C$5,000,000 SECURED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE UNIT FINANCING

Light AI Inc. has entered into an investment agreement with MV Capital LP for a private placement of secured convertible debenture units of the company at $1,000 per unit for gross proceeds of $5-million.

Pursuant to the investment agreement, the investor has agreed to subscribe for and purchase from the company 5,000 units. Each unit will comprise: (i) a 12.0 per cent secured convertible debenture of the company in the principal amount equal to $1,000 with interest compounded quarterly and payable on the earlier of the maturity date (as defined hereafter), prepayment or conversion, and maturing 24 months from the closing of the financing; and (ii) 8,000 common share purchase warrants, each warrant being exercisable for a period of 36 months following the closing of the financing to purchase one common share of the company at an exercise price of 25 cents per warrant share, subject to adjustment in certain events.

Each convertible debenture will allow the investor to convert the outstanding principal thereof into common shares of the company at a price of 12.5 cents per debenture share at the option of the investor at any time prior to the earlier of: (i) the maturity date; and (ii) the business day immediately preceding the date specified for prepayment of the convertible debenture, subject to acceleration in certain events. The company may elect to pay any accrued and unpaid interest in: (i) cash; (ii) common shares of the company at the conversion price, subject to the approval of Cboe Canada; or (iii) any combination of the foregoing.

Beginning on the date that is six months following the closing date, the company may force the conversion of the principal amount of the then outstanding convertible debentures and all outstanding and unpaid interest at the conversion price on not fewer than 10 days, but no more than 60 days advance written notice should the daily volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the exchange be equal to or greater than $1 per common share for the preceding 10 consecutive trading days.

Upon a change of control of the company, the investor will have the right to require the company to repurchase the convertible debenture, in whole or in part, on the date that is 30 days following the giving of the notice of change of control, at a price equal to 110 per cent of the principal amount of the convertible debentures then outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

The investor has agreed not to convert any convertible debenture or exercise any warrants if doing so would result in the investor holding greater than 19.9 per cent of the issued and outstanding common shares, without first obtaining shareholders' approval and approval from the exchange.

The convertible debenture, the warrants, the conversion shares and warrant shares will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the closing date in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

The proceeds of the financing will be used for general working capital purposes and to support ISO 13485/QMS audit completion and Health Canada registration submission.

In addition to the financing, the company and the investor will enter into an investor rights agreement, which includes the following key elements:

  • The investor will have the right to participate in future financing of the company to maintain its pro rata percentage of common shares following the completion the financing.
  • The investor shall have the right to nominate one member to the board of directors of the company.

Such investor rights agreement shall terminate on the earlier of: (i) the closing of a combination transaction; and (ii) the later of: (A) the date the investor no longer maintains at least a 10-per-cent equity interest in the company's issued and outstanding common shares; and (B) the date on which the principal amount of the convertible debenture owed to the investor is less than $250,000.

The financing is expected to close on or around June 19, 2026, and is subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approval of the exchange.

A copy of the investment agreement is available on the company's SEDAR+ profile.
