(“Carbeeza” or the “Company“) (TSXV:AUTO) (OTCQB: CRBAF), is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement“) of 12% convertible unsecured debentures (the “Debentures“) for gross aggregate proceeds of up to $1,500,000. The net proceeds of the Debenture offering will be used by the Company to scale up the marketing campaign and for general corporate purposes.

The Debentures will mature on the date that is twenty four months from the date of issuance. The Company concurrently announces that it has closed the first tranche of Debentures, closing on aggregate proceeds of $300,000.
The Debentures will be convertible at any time prior to maturity at the option of the holders into units (“Units“) of the Company at a conversion price of $0.10 per common share (“Common Share”).

The Debentures, Common Shares and the Warrant Shares will be subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the Exchange.
