Knoxville, Tenn., Jan. 30 - Hemisphere Energy Corp. said it completed an C$8.63 million private placement of units. The deal priced for C$7.5 million with a C$2.5 million greenshoe on Dec. 8.

The company sold 12,323,157 units of one common share and one half-share warrant at C$0.70 per unit on a commercially reasonable-efforts basis. Of the units, 1,608,157 were part of the partially exercised greenshoe.

Each whole warrant is exercisable at C$0.95 for two years. The strike price reflects a 26.67% premium to the Dec. 7 closing share price of C$0.75.
