Harrys Manufacturing Inc.

Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - September 16, 2022 – Harrys International Manufacturing Inc., (a wholly owned subsidiary of Harrys Manufacturing Inc. (“Harrys” or the “Company”) (CSE:HARY), (OTC:WSRRF) is pleased to announce that the production process has begun for the first order of Harrys® Premium King Size cigarettes. Once completed, we expect to ship to the four Western Provinces, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba by the end of this month.  

 

Management recognizes there have been significant delays in getting our product to market, mainly related to the requirement to switch over to slide and shell packaging.  The Company anticipates it’s first shipments to arrive at our distribution partners in Western Canada the first week of October 2022 and available for sale in various retail locations shortly thereafter.  

 

Ken Storey, CEO stated; “Despite some ongoing challenges, we continue to make significant progress toward entering the Canadian market with a viable, low-priced alternative for adult smokers. I’d like to thank our manufacturing partners for their continued efforts to bring our brands to market, as well as our shareholders and distribution partners who have supported us through these delays. We plan to have Harrys® available in several regions in the country in the very near future.”    

Securities for Debt Transactions

The Company has entered into debt settlement agreements with certain creditors (the “Creditors”) to settle an aggregate of CAD$81,025 in debt (the “Debt”). In settlement of the Debt, the Company issued an aggregate of 810,250 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a deemed price of $0.10 per Unit (the “Debt Settlement”). Each Unit was comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Share”) and one Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional Share (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.12 per Warrant Share for a period of twelve months from the issue date.

Three of the four Creditors are non-arm’s length parties of the Company and the issuance of the such Units to the non-arm’s length Creditors each constitute a “related party transaction” as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on the exemption from valuation requirement and minority approval pursuant to subsection 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, as the securities do not represent more than 25% of the Company’s market capitalization, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The participation by the non-arm’s length Creditors in the Debt Settlement was approved by the Company’s board of directors.

All securities issued in connection with the Debt Settlement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

Warrant Repricing

The Company also announces that it will amend the exercise price of a total of 2,163,400 common share purchase warrants (the “Repriced Warrants”), which are exercisable to acquire common shares in the capital of the Company. The Repriced Warrants were originally issued on July 11, 2022 and are currently exercisable at a price of $0.12 per Share. The Company will reprice the exercise price of the Repriced Warrants to $0.10 per Share.
