New York, Aug. 19 - Allen-Vanguard Corp. said it has arranged a private placement of subscription receipts for up to C$7 million.
The company plans to sell up to 4 million subscription receipts at C$1.75 each.
The receipts are exchangeable for one unit of one share and one half-share warrant once the company successfully renegotiates covenants related to credit facilities totaling C$16 million with the Bank of Scotland.
If those requirements are not met within 60 days of the closing date, the company will repurchase the receipts at a redemption price equal to the issue price plus accrued interest.
The proceeds will be held in escrow until those conditions are met.
The whole warrants attached to the offering are exercisable at C$2.00 each for 18 months.
A syndicate of placement agents led by Paradigm Capital Inc. will have an over-allotment option for up to 800,000 additional receipts.
The deal is slated to close Sept. 15.
Proceeds from the deal will be used for working capital and to strengthen the company's balance sheet.
Based in Ottawa, Allen-Vanguard develops tools and training procedures for minimizing the effects of hazardous materials or devices.
