Ecolomondo Announces Closing of Non-Brokered Private Placement Of C$506,660

Ecolomondo Corporation
   

Montreal, QC, July 26, 2024 – TheNewswire – Ecolomondo Corporation (TSXV: ECM) (OTC: ECLMF) (the “Company” or “Ecolomondo”), a cleantech company specializing in the commercialization of its Thermal Decomposition Process (“TDP”) proprietary recycling technology and the global deployment of TDP turnkey facilities, is pleased to announce that it completed a non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of C$506,660.04 from the sale of 2,814,778 units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) at a price of C$0.18 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “Unit Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of C$0.24 at any time on or before that date which is 2 years after the closing date of the Offering, provided that if the closing price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is equal to or greater than $0.30 for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by disseminating a press release, and in such case the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such press release is disseminated.

 

This strategic financing coupled with the recently announced $3M loan from Export Development Canada (“EDC”) will support the Company’s ongoing development and expansion initiatives, reinforcing its commitment to advancing the TDP technology and bringing sustainable solutions within the tire recycling industry.

 

The Units were sold to purchasers in the provinces of Quebec, Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions. The Unit Shares and Warrant Shares are immediately freely tradeable under applicable Canadian securities legislation if sold to purchasers resident in Canada.

 

The purchase of Units pursuant to the Offering by Eliot Sorella and Michael Frankel, each a director or officer of the Company (collectively, the “Related Parties”) constituted a “related party transaction” as such term is defined by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company was exempt from the MI 61-101 valuation and minority approval requirements for related party transactions in connection with the Offering because the Company was not listed on a stock exchange specified in section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101, and neither the fair market value of the Units purchased by the Related Parties, nor the proceeds to be received by the Company in respect of the Related Parties’ participation in the Offering, exceeded $2,500,000.  

 

At the closing of the Offering, the Company paid certain finders a cash commission of $3,910.20, equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering resulting from purchasers introduced by such finders. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to optimize the process and production in the Hawkesbury TDP Facility and for working capital and general corporate purposes.  

None of the securities sold under the Private Placement have been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no such securities may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in the United States or any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

 

In addition to the financing, Ecolomondo has recently announced in a press release dated July 18, 2024, a $3 million loan from Export Development Canada (EDC) extended to the Company’s subsidiary, Ecolomondo Environmental (Hawkesbury) Inc., owner of the Hawkesbury facility. The Loan calls for a 2-year term, with a floating interest rate of prime plus 8%. Interest payments will be capitalized until February 28, 2025 and payable thereafter on a monthly basis. This significant financial support from EDC will further enable the Company to enhance its operational capabilities, accelerate project timelines, and strengthen its market position.

 

The Company remains focused on its mission to deploy its cutting-edge technology that transform waste into valuable resources, contributing to a circular economy and reducing environmental impact.

 

Ecolomondo’s CEO, Gary Economo, stated, “We are thrilled with the progress we have made in securing the necessary financial resources and exploring strategic partnerships that align with our vision of creating a sustainable future. These recent milestones reflect the confidence and support of our investors and other stakeholders, and we look forward to capitalizing on these opportunities to deliver long-term value for our investors.”

About the Hawkesbury Plant – A 2-Reactor TDP Facility

The Hawkesbury facility building is 46,200 sq.ft and has an impressive indoor clearance of 28 feet. It is state-of-the-art and houses 4 main production departments, tire shredding, thermal decomposition, recycled carbon black refining and oil fractionation. Once fully operational, this facility is expected to process 1.3M of scrap tires per year and produce 8.7M lbs of recovered carbon black, 34,608 barrels of oil, 2.9M lbs of steel, and 2.6M lbs of process gas.

 

About the Shamrock Project – A 6-Reactor TDP Facility

Processing capabilities for the Shamrock facility is projected at 5.5M per year of end-of-life tires, yielding approximately 35.1M lbs of recovered carbon black, 128,100 barrels of oil, 11.9M lbs of steel, and 10.6M lbs of syngas; roughly three times the size of the Company’s Hawkesbury (Ontario) plant output. Facility construction is expected to begin by the third quarter of 2024 with completion expected by the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. Projected cost to build is approximately US $93 million.

 

Our Mission, Vision & Strategy

Ecolomondo’s mission is to be a contributing participant in a dynamic Circular Economy and to increase shareholder value by producing and supplying large quantities of recovered resources to be re-used in the manufacture of new products.

Ecolomondo’s vision is to be a leading producer and reseller of recovered resources by building and operating TDP facilities, strategically located in industrialized countries, close to feedstock, labor and offtake clients.

Our strategy is to become a major global builder and operator of TDP turnkey facilities, for now specializing in the processing of ELTs. Our intent is to expand aggressively in North America and Europe. Our experience and modular technology should help us get there faster and better. We plan to keep performing ongoing research and development to ensure that Ecolomondo remains technologically advanced.

 

ISCC Certification

 A confirmation of the Company’s successful process lies in the recent International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (“ISCC”) for its Hawkesbury TDP facility, another step forward that should help improve demand for TDP. ISCC is a Global Sustainability Certification System and offers chain-of-custody certification systems to ensure traceability and feedstock identity, which can add commercial value to the Company’s end-products as they remain traceable in the supply chain.

ISO Certification

The Company has obtained ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 & ISO 45001:2018 certification of its Integrated Management System (IMS), which acknowledges Ecolomondo’s commitment for quality, environmental impact and health and safety at work.

 

Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG)

On the social aspect the Company plans to measure global health and safety, injury rate and gender diversity, and finally in the corporate governance aspect, the Company is measuring ethics and anticorruption, ESG reporting and board independence.

 

About TDP

The TDP process is technically proven and more advanced than most other pyrolysis technologies. Over the years, our Technological teams were able to overcome all uncertainties that plagued most competitors especially in these areas: pre-filtration, reactor cooling, reactor rotation, water recycling, processing of rCB, (hydrocarbon removal), mass monitoring, heat curve development, humidity and water removal, safety testing, system automation, emissions control and monitoring.

 

TDP is Environmentally Friendly – CO2 Reduction

By producing rCB, TDP reduces GHG emissions by 90% versus the production of virgin carbon black. The production of rCB at the Hawkesbury and Shamrock facilities are expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 22,400 and 67,200 tons per year, respectively.
