KITCHENER, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 19, 2024 / Cloud DX Inc. ("Cloud DX" or the "Company") (TSXV:CDX)(OTCQB:CDXFF) is pleased to announce that, demonstrating their support for the Company and all its shareholders, certain convertible debenture holders (the "Creditors") have agreed to convert an aggregate principal amount of $3,187,000 CAD, prior to the applicable maturity date, into common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Common Shares"). As consideration for such early conversion of the convertible debentures, the Company has agreed to accelerate an aggregate of $180,585 CAD of interest from the applicable maturity date to the date on which the convertible debentures are converted.
The Company has entered into shares for debt agreements dated March 6, 2024 (the "Debt Settlement Agreements") with the Creditors to settle an aggregate of $1,007,070 CAD (the "Outstanding Debt") of interest owing to the Creditors pursuant to convertible debentures issued to the Creditors by the Company on October 1, 2021, March 18, 2022, July 6, 2022 and November 28, 2022 (the "Convertible Debentures"), due on October 1, 2024, January 27, 2025, July 6, 2024 and May 28, 2024, respectively, (the "Maturity Dates"). The Outstanding Debt shall be fully paid and satisfied upon the Company issuing to the Creditors 6,553,409 Common Shares at a deemed price per share of $0.15 (for Debentures maturing October 1, 2024, January 27, 2025 and July 6, 2024) and $0.16 (for Debentures maturing May 28, 2024).
Since B&M Miller Equity Holdings Inc. a company controlled by Brad Miller, a director of the Company, Gaurav Puri, a director of the Company, and Constantine Zachos, a director of the Company, each entered into the Debt Settlement Agreements, it is considered to be a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The transaction will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to the related parties (as defined in MI 61-101), nor the consideration provided therefor, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
Voluntary Pooling Agreements
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has entered into pooling agreements (the "Pooling Agreements") dated on or about March 6, 2024 (the "Effective Date") under which - representing a strong vote of confidence in the Company and its performance - certain shareholders (each a "Pooling Shareholder") have agreed to subject an aggregate of 26,411,896 Common Shares issued to them in connection with the conversion of the Convertible Debentures and pursuant to the Debt Settlement Agreements to voluntary pooling until the date that is the earlier of (i) twenty four (24) months from the Effective Date and (i) the first business day following the date on which the closing price for the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") (or such other recognized stock exchange in Canada on which the Common Shares are then listed) is equal to or greater than $0.50 for a period of 10 consecutive trading days.
The Debt Settlement Agreements and the issuance of the Common Shares thereunder are subject to the approval of the TSXV. All securities issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement Agreement will be subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issuance thereof in accordance with applicable TSXV policies and Canadian securities laws.
