MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – Oct. 20, 2016) – Smart Employee Benefits Inc. (“SEB” or the “Company“) (TSX VENTURE:SEB) is no longer proceeding with the two $1.25 million convertible note offerings previously announced pursuant to its press release of September 21, 2016. Instead, the Company intends to complete a unit offering (the “Offering“) on a private placement basis where up to 25,000,000 units (each a “Unit“) will be issued at a price of $0.20 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one transferable common share purchase warrant of the Company (a “Warrant“). Each Warrant will be exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.30 per share and have a term of 18 months from the date of issuance.

It is expected that the Offering will close in two tranches, with the first tranche closing on or around October 31, 2016. The Company also expects that up to $1,500,000 of the subscriptions on the first tranche will be from Company insiders.

A finder is expected to be engaged for the Offering and will receive aggregate cash compensation equal to 7% of the gross proceeds raised under the Offering, as well as finder warrants (each a “Finder Warrant“) equal to 7% of the aggregate number of Units sold pursuant to the Offering. Each Finder Warrant will entitle the finder to acquire one Unit at an exercise price of $0.20 per Unit and have a term of 18 months from the date of issuance.

All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of closing. Proceeds from the Offering will be used for repayment of debt and working capital purposes. The Offering is subject to regulatory approval from TSX Venture Exchange.
