TORONTO, Sept. 19, 2018 /CNW/ - 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (TSXV: ONE) (the "Company") today announced it has closed its previously disclosed private placement of units raising gross proceeds of $1,000,000.   

Pursuant to the offering the Company issued 10,000,000 units ("Units") at a per Unit price of $0.10, with each Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable for the purchase of one common share of the Company at a per share price of $0.15 for a period of 24 months from the date of closing of the private placement.

In June 2018 the Company has announced its focus on Post-Quantum Blockchain ("PQBC") and Post-Quantum Cryptography ("PQ-Crypto") technologies. The proceeds raised from the private placement will be used by the Company for completing commercial development of PQBC and PQ-Crypto technologies, to develop strategic partnerships, and for general working capital purposes.  All securities issued under the private placement are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of closing in accordance with applicable securities legislation and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Richardson GMP Limited ("RGMP"), with offices in Vancouver, British Columbia, acted as exclusive agent to sell the Units on a commercially reasonable basis. In consideration for the services of RGMP, RGMP received: (i) a cash commission equal to 8% of the gross proceeds raised; (ii) compensation options to acquire that number of Units as is equal to 8% of the total number of Units sold under the offering, exercisable at a per Unit price of $0.10 for a period of 24 months from the date of closing of the offering; (iii) a corporate finance fee of $20,000; and (iv) reimbursement of its expenses.

Further, for a period of one year from the date of closing of the offering, the Company has granted RGMP the exclusive right and opportunity to lead any offering of securities by the Company to be issued and sold to the public in Canada by private placement or public offering or to provide professional, sponsorship or advisory services performed (or normally performed) by a broker or investment dealer.
