December 19, 2022 (Source) – Visionstate Corp. (TSXV:VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the receipt of conditional acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange on the offering (“Offering”) of up to 17,500,000 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of $0.02 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $350,000 as previously announced on November 9, 2022.  Each Unit is comprised of one (1) common share of Visionstate (“Common Share”) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (“Warrant”) whereby each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one (1) additional Common Share at a price of $0.05 per Common Share for a period of two (2) years following the date of closing.

Visionstate has closed on the initial tranche of subscriptions of 10,045,000 Units at a price of $0.02 per Unit for gross proceeds of $200,900, which includes 2,595,000 Units issued to certain insiders of Visionstate.

The issuance of Units to insiders pursuant to the Offering will constitute a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”).  The Offering will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.  In particular, Visionstate has determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) in section 5.5 of MI 61-101 are applicable since the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of Visionstate and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange.  In addition, regarding the minority shareholder approval exemptions, the independent directors have determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b) in section 5.7 of MI 61-101 are applicable in that the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of Visionstate, the distribution of the securities to the related parties will have a fair market value of not more than $2,500,000 and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange.

The net proceeds from the sale of units will be used by the Company for marketing and sales initiatives, research and development to enhance the Company’s technology, operating capital and investigating a US quotation on the OTCQB.

Pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, the Common Shares and Warrants comprising the Units are subject to a four-month hold period from the time of closing of the Offering.
