New Issue: Emblem prices C$25 million three-year convertible debentures to yield 8%, up 2.68%

By Abigail W. Adams

Portland, Me., Jan. 12 – Emblem Corp. priced C$25 million in three-year convertible debentures with a coupon of 8% and a 2.68% initial conversion premium in a bought deal announced prior to market open Friday.

In addition to the convertible debentures, Emblem priced C$25 million units at a price of C$2.05 per unit as part of the bought deal.

The company may force the conversion of the 8% convertible notes at the initial conversion price if average daily weighted trading price of the shares is greater than C$3.45 for any 10 consecutive trading days, according to a company release. There is takeover protection.

The initial conversion price is C$2.30.

If 90% of the principal amount is tendered for redemption upon a change of control, the company may redeem all remaining convertible debentures at the offer price, according to a company release.

The units priced in connection with the convertible debentures carry a C$3.75 million greenshoe but there is no over-allotment option for the convertibles.

Eight Capital was the underwriter.

Emblem is a Toronto-based medical marijuana company.
