In its Form 7 – Monthly Progress Report filed with the Canadian Securities Exchange on January 7, 2025, Quantum Biopharma Ltd. (the “Company”) reported that it had raised an aggregate of $1,000,000 in a non-brokered private placement offering of its convertible debenture units (“Convertible Debenture Units”) at a price of $1,000 per Convertible Debenture Unit (the “Offering”), which Offering closed in December 2024. Each Convertible Debenture Unit consists of (i) one Convertible Debenture Unit having a face value of $1,000 each (a “Debenture”), and (ii) 80 Class B common share purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”) exercisable for 80 Class B subordinate voting shares (“Class B Stock”) of the Company. The Debentures mature on the date that is 36 months from the date of issuance and bear interest at a rate of 1.25% per unit, beginning on the date of issuance and payable in cash on the last day of the calendar quarter.

 

The principal sum of the Debentures, or any portion thereof, and any accrued but unpaid interest, may be converted into shares of the Company’s Class B Stock at a conversion price of $6.25 per share. Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to acquire one additional share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $7.00 per Warrant Share, for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance. The Company will use the proceeds from the Offering for the ongoing development of its business model and for general working capital purposes. The Offering was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no Convertible Debenture Units were offered or sold in the United States or to, or for, the account or benefit of any U.S. persons.
