/NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR TO ANY PERSON LOCATED OR RESIDENT IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ITS TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS, ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA./
TORONTO, July 3, 2018 /CNW/ - Baylin Technologies Inc. (TSX: BYL) (the "Company" or "Baylin") announced today that it has filed a prospectus supplement to a short form base shelf prospectus dated November 16, 2017 (the "Prospectus Supplement") in connection with its previously announced bought deal offering of subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") and 6.5% extendible convertible unsecured debentures (the "Debentures") of the Company (the "Offering"). The Prospectus Supplement describes in detail the terms of the Offering and has been filed with securities regulators in each of the provinces and territories of Canada.
The Subscription Receipts and Debentures may also be offered in those jurisdictions outside of Canada which are agreed to by the Company and the underwriters, where the Subscription Receipts and Debentures can be issued on a private placement basis, exempt from any prospectus, registration or other similar requirements. The Offering is being conducted by a syndicate of underwriters led by Raymond James Ltd. and including Paradigm Capital Inc. and National Bank Financial Inc.
The Offering is expected to close on or about July 10, 2018 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange.
It is anticipated that certain directors and officers of the Company will purchase up to 3,304,094 Subscription Receipts and $7,558,000 principal amount of Debentures pursuant to the Offering. By virtue of the participation of such insiders, the Offering would constitute a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company expects to release a material change report including details with respect to the related party transaction less than 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering, which the Company has deemed to be reasonable in the circumstances so as to be able to avail itself of potential financing opportunities and complete the Offering in an expeditious manner. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.
The securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or compliance with the requirements of an applicable exemption therefrom. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
