Advitech to sell C$3.5 million of equity units via private placement

Company also announces plans to merge with Natunola Health Biosciences

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., June 30 - Advitech Inc. said it plans a private placement of units to raise at least C$3.5 million.

The company will sell at least 87.5 million units of one common share and a half-share warrant at C$0.04 per unit. Each whole warrant is exercisable at C$0.05 for three years. The strike price is a 25% premium to the June 29 closing share price of C$0.04.

Bloom Burton & Co. and Paradigm Capital Inc. are the agents.

The company also said it has negotiated a merger with Natunola Health Biosciences Inc. to combine the businesses of both companies, creating a personal care and health food ingredients company. In the merger, Advitech will acquire all of Natunola's outstanding shares through an amalgamation between Natunola and 7894716 Canada Inc., a subsidiary of Advitech.

The Natunola shareholders will receive Advitech common shares based on a ratio of 4.75 Advitech shares for each Natunola share. Following the amalgamation, the Natunola shares will be delisted and Natunola will continue its activities as a subsidiary of Advitech.

The private placement is a condition of this merger.
