By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, April 13 - Royal Laser Corp. said the underwriters of its recent C$40 million private placement exercised their over-allotment option for C$15 million in subscription receipts in full, pulling up the proceeds from the deal to C$55 million.

The syndicate of underwriters was led by Canaccord Adams Inc. and included MGI Securities Inc.

The company sold a total of 44 million subscription receipts at C$1.25 each. The receipts are exchangeable for one share of Royal Laser once the company's acquisition of Venture Steel Inc. is completed.

The deal priced on March 29 as a C$40 million offering of 32 million receipts. The price per share is a 6% discount to the company's C$1.33 closing stock price on March 28.

Toronto-based Royal Laser manufactures custom metal and wood products for the retail in-store development sector.
