May 29 2020 - 8:30AM
Braingrid Limited (CSE: BGRD) (“Braingrid”) wishes
to provide an update on the COVID-19 pandemic as it affects
Braingrid and the status of the filing of its annual financial
statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis,
and related CEO and CFO certifications, for the financial year
ended January 31, 2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic is creating unprecedented
challenges to the global economy and stock markets. Braingrid's
Board of Directors and Management are taking all necessary
precautions to ensure the health of its employees and best manage
the short-term challenges to the business.
On March 18, 2020, the Canadian Securities
Administrators ("CSA") issued a notice stating
that securities regulators will be providing coordinated relief
consisting of a 45-day extension for certain periodic filings
required to be made on or prior to June 1, 2020 as a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic. As such the Ontario Securities Commission
("OSC") has enacted Instrument 51-502 Temporary
Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements (the
"OSC Temporary Exemption"). Braingrid will be
relying on this extension period due to delays experienced as
result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Braingrid will be relying on the OSC Temporary
Exemption in respect to the following provisions:
- the requirement to file audited financial statements for the
year ended January 31, 2020 (the "Annual Financial
Statements") within 120 days of Braingrid's financial year
end as required by section 4.2(b) of National Instrument 51-102
Respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI
51-102”);
- the requirement to file management discussion and analysis (the
"Annual MD&A") for the period covered by the
Annual Financial Statements within 120 days of Braingrid’s
financial year end as required by section 5.1(2) of NI 51-102;
and
- the requirement to file certifications of the Annual Financial
Statements (the "Certificates" and together with
the Annual Financial Statements and the Annual MD&A, the
"Annual Filings") pursuant to section 4.1 of NI
52-109 respecting Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual
and Interim Filings (“NI 52-109”).
Braingrid is continuing to work diligently and
expeditiously with its auditors to file the Annual Filings on or
before July 14, 2020. In the interim, management and other insiders
of Braingrid are subject to a trading black-out policy as
described, in principle, in section 9 of National Policy 11-207,
Failure to File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple
Jurisdictions. Braingrid confirms that since the filing of its
interim consolidated financial statements for the period ended
October 31, 2019, there have been no material business developments
other than those disclosed through news releases.
