VANCOUVER, BC and WILMINGTON, Mass., Oct. 28,
2024 /CNW/ - Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd.
("Liberty" or the "Company") (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB:
LDDFF) (FRANKFURT: LD2), a leading technology provider of AI-based
next generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and
threats, is pleased to announce that it is undertaking a
non-brokered LIFE offering of a minimum of 7,500,000 units (the

Company at a price of C$0.10 per Unit
(the "Offering Price") for gross proceeds to the Company of
a minimum of C$750,000 up to a
maximum of $2,487,000 (the
"Offering").
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the
Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase
warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder
thereof to purchase one Common Share of the Company (a "Warrant
Share") for a period of 36 months following the closing date of
the Offering at an exercise price of C$0.20 per Warrant Share.
The Offering is being completed pursuant to the listed issuer
financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 -
Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106") to purchasers
resident in each of the Provinces of Canada, except Quebec. The Securities issued pursuant to the
LIFE Offering will not be subject to a hold period in accordance
with applicable Canadian securities laws. There will be an offering
document related to the LIFE Offering that will be available under
the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company's
website at: www.libertydefense.com. Prospective investors should
read this offering document before making an investment
decision.
Upon closing of the Offering, the Company may pay a (i) a
finder's fee equal to up to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of
the Offering and (ii) issue non-transferrable warrants of the
Company exercisable at any time prior to the date that is 36 months
from the Closing Date to acquire that number of Common Shares equal
to 7.0% of the number of Units issued under the Offering, at an
exercise price equal to the Offering Price, subject to adjustment
in certain events.
The Company plans to use the proceeds of the Offering to further
the production of HEXWAVE technology to support the increase in
demand for the product and deliver units in backlog to customers
and for general corporate purposes.
The Offering is expected to close on or about November 8, 2024 (the "Closing Date") and
completion of the Offering is subject to certain conditions
including, but not limited to, receiving subscriptions for the
minimum amount of C$750,000 under the
Offering and the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the
approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").
It is anticipated that insiders of the Company may participate
in the Offering for up to $150,000,
and such Units issued to insiders will be subject to a four month
hold period pursuant to applicable policies of the TSXV. The
issuance of Units to insiders will be considered a "related party
transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 –
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company is relying on
exemptions from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101
pursuant to section 5.5(a) and the minority shareholder approval
requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.7(1)(a) in respect
of such insider participation as the fair market value of the
transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, does not
exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale
of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities being
offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the 1933
Act or under any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered
or sold in the United States
absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the 1933 Act, as amended, and
applicable state securities laws.
