“We are extremely pleased with the success of our financing, and the fact that the Private Placement was over-subscribed is a testament to the strength of the Company’s management team, the demand for innovative clean technology solutions like TMS, and capital market acceptance. The completion of this Private Placement is an important step in implementing our planned commercialization strategy,” said Dr. James Young, interim CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors.
The common shares issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a four month and one day hold period in Canada from the date of issuance that will expire on March 1, 2017.
