Emergia Inc. Announces Second Closing of its Private Placement of Convertible Debentures and the Filing of its Q3-2021 Interim Financial Statements and Related MD&A

MONTREAL, Nov. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (CSE: EMER) Emergia Inc. (the “Corporation or “Emergia”) is pleased to announce that it has completed the second closing of a private placement of up to $5,000,000 of convertible debentures (the “Debentures”). This first closing was completed for an amount of $2,000,000 and the second closing for an amount of $1,000,000 for a total amount of $3,000,000 under this private placement.

The Debentures bear interest at the rate of 8% per year, accruing in arrears, payable semi-annually in cash or in Class A Common Shares (the “Shares”) of the Corporation issuable at a price equal to 10-day average closing price of the Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange on the date prior to the applicable interest payment date less 15%. The Debentures are convertible at the holder’s option into one unit (the “Units”) of the Corporation at a conversion price of $0.85. Each Unit is composed of one Share in the capital of the Corporation and two (2) warrants of the Corporation: (i) a warrant of the Corporation entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $1.25 per Share until October 31, 2023 and (ii) a warrant of the Corporation entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $1.50 per Share until October 31, 2024. In the event that, during the term of the Debentures, the volume weighted trading price of the Shares for the last 20 days on the Canadian Securities Exchange is equal to, or greater than $1.50 per Share, then the Corporation may force the conversion of the Debentures into Units.

The Corporation also announces today that it has filed, at the end of the day yesterday, its unaudited interim condensed financial statements, ‎management’s discussion and analysis and related certifications for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021.

“We are very proud to say that difficult times are now behind and that we can now look forward and pursue our business plan that include acquisitions, development projects and value creation,” said Henri Petit, Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.  “Emergia’s current situation is particularly rewarding after now close to three years of hard work from the whole team. I would like to thank all of our people who have worked so diligently through this challenging period and our shareholders and creditors for their continued support. Their perseverance, patience and confidence has allowed us to succeed in this transformation.”

The highlights for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 and as of the date hereof are set out below. More detailed information are contained in the Q3-2021 financial statements and related management discussion and analysis are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com
