Graeme Lempriere, Chief Executive Officer of Clean Seed, states "Clean Seed is pleased to announce a brokered financing lead by Industrial Alliance Securities with lead investment banker Jeret Bode who grew up in a small town in Saskatchewan. We selected the firm and Mr. Bode, due to his academic background in science and agriculture as well as his firsthand knowledge working for companies such as Cargill and Syngenta. At Clean Seed we remain committed to working with groups that understand farming and have a track record raising capital out of the prairies. It is important for Clean Seed to capitalize and build the company with people that will ultimately be buying our Smart Seeders and share in our passion to pioneer change. "
