TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – June 17, 2016) –
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. (“Ventripoint” or the “Corporation“) (TSX VENTURE:VPT) has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV“) for the previously announced amendment of the terms of certain common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants“) issued by the Corporation in connection with private placements of the Corporation on August 21, 2013, October 22, 2013, June 20, 2014, December 31, 2014, June 4, 2015, and September 29, 2015. The Warrants were amended as follows:
1. The expiry date of each series of warrants was extended for an additional two (2) years from the original expiry date.
2. The exercise price of all of the Warrants was amended to $0.40.
3. The Warrants, as amended, include an accelerated expiry provision such that the exercise period of each of the classes of the Warrants will be reduced to 30 days if for any 10 consecutive trading days during the unexpired term of such class of Warrants (the “Premium Trading Days“) the closing price of the Corporation’s common shares exceeds the amended exercise price by 25% or more (which would be a trading price of $0.50 per common share or higher), with the 30-day expiry period to begin no more than 7 calendar days after the 10th Premium Trading Day.
For further information on the amendment of the Warrants, please see the Corporation’s press release dated June 2, 2016.
The Corporation also announces a correction to its press release that was disseminated on June 2, 2016. The table on the first page of the press release should have stated that the original exercise price of the Warrants issued on August 21, 2013 was $1.50, not $1.20.
Certain warrants of the Corporation which were issued in connection with a private placement of the Corporation on November 9, 2015 will not be amended at this time.
