MTI Global Inc.: MTI Global Announces Closing of Share Issuance

^{Published on 2009-09-22 13:09:40 - Market Wire}
 

MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Sept. 21, 2009) - MTI Global Inc. (the "Company") (TSX:MTI) announced today that it has closed the previously announced private placement of 2,600,000 common shares to Wellington Financial LP ("Wellington") which was completed pursuant to the Company entering into a new $7.4 million subordinated debt financing agreement with Wellington.

The issuance of the common shares to Wellington constitutes a shares-for-debt private placement (the "Private Placement") under the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"). Wellington is an unrelated arms-length party to the Company and the issuance of the common shares will not materially affect control of the Company. The number of common shares issuable pursuant to the Private Placement will represent in aggregate approximately 9.3% of the 27,808,334 currently issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis. Wellington, upon issuance of the common shares, will own approximately 8.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

The Private Placement is subject to the approval of the TSX, and since the Private Placement will provide for the issuance of additional common shares to Wellington rather than warrants pursuant to the Private Placement, the rules of the TSX require that the Company obtain approval of the Private Placement from the holders of a majority of the voting shares of the Company. However the rules of the TSX also provide that such approval may be obtained in writing from shareholders without the requirement to convene a shareholders' meeting for such purposes. The Company has obtained the necessary shareholder approval and is relying on this exemption in connection with the Private Placement.
