Private PlacementMission Ready reports that it has experienced certain delays in finalizing a strategic investment related to the private placement offering announced July 8, 2019 (the “Offering”). In light of these delays and recent developments, management have chosen to close the Offering at this time rather than seeking to extend the Offering on the current terms. In connection with the closing of the Offering, the Company has accepted certain individual subscriptions totaling CAD $434,250 and issued 1,737,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of CDN$0.25 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Share”) and one whole transferable common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Share at an exercise price of CDN$0.40 per Share for a period of 12 months from the close of the Offering.

The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering for general working capital.

Insiders of the Company acquired an aggregate of 682,000 Units in the Offering, which participation constituted a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the Units acquired by the insiders, nor the consideration for the Units paid by such insiders, exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

No finder’s fees were paid in connection with the Offering.

The Offering remains subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

The securities issued in connection with the Offering, and any Shares that may be issuable upon exercise of any such securities, will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of issuance of such securities.

Debt SettlementsThe Company announces that, subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange, certain creditors have agreed to accept an aggregate of 1,481,818 common shares (the “Shares”) of the Company, at a deemed value of CAD $0.22 per Share, for outstanding director fees, consulting fees, and other amounts owed totaling CAD $326,000.  The Shares issued pursuant to the debt settlement are subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of issuance of such securities.

Stock Option GrantAnnounces that it has granted incentive stock options (the “Options”), pursuant to its stock option plan (the “Plan”), for a total of 5,750,000 common shares of the Company, to certain directors, officers and consultants of the Company. The Options, subject to the terms of the Plan and the corresponding Option agreement for each optionee, are exercisable at a price of CAD $0.22 per share for a period of up to five years.
