The Company expects to launch the new products and provide them to existing partners and resellers in the fourth quarter.

Commenting on the closing BeWhere’s Founder & CEO Owen Moore said “I’m very pleased with the overwhelming support of our shareholders and I look forward to a very busy fall as we take the next step in our growth and launch our new Mobile IoT technologies to what appears to be very strong interest, it is my belief that these technologies will complement our current product offering and allow us to become a go to provider for asset tracking and environmental sensing globally”

The Common Shares are subject to a statutory four month hold period, which expires February 6, 2018. Finders’ fees have been paid in cash in an amount equal to 6% of the gross proceeds from the sale of some of the Common Shares in the private placement.

In that a director of the Company participated in the private placement, the private placement is a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”), which requires the Company to obtain “minority approval” of the Company’s shareholders of the related party transaction unless there is an exemption from such requirement. The Company is relying on the exemption in Section 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the securities distributed to the related party was less than 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
