TORONTO, Jan. 23, 2020 /CNW/ – National Access Cannabis Corp. (TSXV: META) d/b/a Meta Growth (“Meta Growth“, “META” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (“Echelon“), pursuant to which Echelon has agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 45,454,600 units (the “Units“) of the Company at a price of $0.22 per Unit (the “Issue Price“) for gross proceeds of approximately $10,000,000 million (the “Offering“).

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (each a “Common Share“) and one common share purchase warrant (each a “Warrant” and collectively the “Warrants“). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.29 for a period of 36 months from the closing date of the Offering.

The Offering will be conducted by a syndicate led by Echelon as lead underwriter and sole bookrunner. The Company has granted Echelon an option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units sold under the Offering, at the Issue Price. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised in whole or in part to purchase Shares, Warrants or Units as determined by Echelon upon written notice to the Company at any time up to 30 days following the closing date of the Offering (the “Over-Allotment Option“).

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to expand its retail footprint in Ontario, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Meta Growth has agreed to grant Echelon a cash commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (including the Over-Allotment Option), which shall be payable on the closing date of the Offering and/or of the Over-Allotment Option, as applicable.

The Offering will be completed (i) by way of a prospectus supplement to the base shelf prospectus of the Company dated August 1, 2019 to be filed in all of the provinces of Canada with the exception of Quebec, (ii) on a private placement basis in the United States pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act“) and (iii) outside Canada and the United States on a basis which does not require the qualification or registration of any of the Company’s securities under domestic or foreign securities laws.
