VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 29, 2021 /CNW/ - Vejii Holdings Ltd. (CSE: VEJI) ("Vejii" or the "Company"), a North American online marketplace for plant-based and sustainable products, is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into an agreement with Research Capital Corporation (the "Agent"), as lead agent and sole bookrunner, on a best-efforts basis, in respect of a brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") of unsecured convertible debentures ("Debentures") of the Company at $1,000 per Debenture, up to an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or such other amount as the parties may agree upon. The Company will also grant to the Agent an option (the "Agent's Option") to offer additional Debentures up to an aggregate principal amount of $750,000 by giving written notice of the exercise of the Agent's Option, or a part thereof, to the Company at any time up to 48 hours prior to the Closing Date (as defined below).

The Debentures will bear interest from the Closing Date at a rate of 12.0% per annum on an accrual basis, calculated and payable semiannually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year commencing on June 30, 2022. The Debentures will mature on the date that is 24 months following the Closing Date (the "Maturity Date"). The Debentures and accrued interest will be redeemable after the Maturity Date in cash, or converted into common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price of $0.50 per share. The Debentures and accrued interest will be subject to an early redemption, at the Company's discretion, if the closing price of the Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange or any equivalent exchange is equal to or greater than $0.70 per share for a period of ten consecutive trading days.

The Company anticipates that completion of the Offering (the "Closing") will occur on December 23, 2021 or such other time as the parties may agree upon (the "Closing Date").

The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Offering to support M&A, customer acquisition and marketing and for general working capital purposes.

At the Closing, the Company will pay to the Agent, subject to regulatory approval where applicable, (a) a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds arising from the Offering (including on exercise of the Agent's Option); (b) warrants entitling the Agent to purchase Common Shares equal to 6.0% of the principal amount of Convertible Debentures issued under the Offering (including on exercise of the Agent's Option) divided by $0.50, exercisable at $0.50 at any time up to 24 months following the Closing; (c) an advisory commission of 2.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds arising from the Offering (including on exercise of the Agent's Option); and (d) advisory warrants entitling the Agent to purchase Common Shares equal to 2.0% of the principal amount of Convertible Debentures issued in the Offering (including on exercise of the Agent's Option) divided by $0.50, exercisable at $0.50 at any time up to 24 months following the Closing.

The Offering will take place by way of a private placement to accredited investors in the provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Ontario, and such other jurisdictions as the Agent and the Company may agree. Canadian subscribers must be "accredited investors" (as defined in National Instrument 45-106 ? Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106")) or otherwise qualified under NI 45-106.
