Bee Vectoring Technologies Closes Non-brokered Private Placement


Mississauga, Ontario, Canada (October 07, 2020) – Bee Vectoring Technologies International Inc. (the “Company” or “BVT”) (CSE: BEE) (OTCQB: BEVVF) (CVE:BEE), is pleased to announce it has closed a non-brokered private placement of 2,661,366 units (“Units”) at a price of $0.24 per Unit for gross aggregate proceeds of $638,727.84 (the “Offering”).  Each Unit will consist of one common share (a “Share”) and one transferable common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”).

Should the 10-day volume weight average price of the Shares, as traded on the TSX-V, be equal to or greater than a 100% premium to the Warrant exercise price prior to the expiry date of the applicable Warrants, the Company may accelerate the expiry date (“Accelerated Expiry Date”) of the Warrants by providing the Warrant holders with notice (the “Acceleration Notice”) of its election to do so. The Accelerated Expiry Date referenced in an Acceleration Notice may be no earlier than the 30th day from the date on which such Accelerated Expiry Date is delivered to the warrant holders. For greater certainty, the Acceleration Notice may not be delivered to the subscribers prior to the Warrant exercise date.

Finders fees of $1,024.80 cash and 4,270 Warrants with the same terms as noted above have been paid as finder’s fees to qualified parties.

BVT intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to fund its ongoing growth strategy in the agricultural space, for continued research and development and general working capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period that will expire on February 08, 2021, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
