ISD iSign Media Solutions Inc

iSIGN Media Solutions Inc. (“iSIGN” or “Company”) (TSX-V: ISD) (OTC: ISDSF), a leading provider of interactive mobile proximity marketing and public security alert solutions is pleased to announce that approval from disinterested shareholders holding well over 50% of the Company’s outstanding shares, has been received in favour of Mr. Joe Kozar as a Control Person in the Company. The Company is now moving forward with its business plan in 2022 and beyond, which includes the update and delivery of its core solutions and negotiations to incorporate certain technologies dealing with contact tracing, in-home healthcare monitoring, personal and public virus detection, and mobile verification technologies.

With this approval having been given by its shareholders, the Company is announcing that it has filed the necessary paperwork with the TSX-Venture Exchange (“Exchange”) relating to the previously announced two-year convertible debentures (the “New Debentures”). These New Debentures, agreed to by certain of its creditors, will transfer $3,611,138 of current liabilities, consisting of existing debt agreement, both principal and interest plus an agreed upon 10% penalty provision of $361,114, to long-term liabilities.

Under the terms of these New Debentures, $2,880,691 will be convertible into 57,613,829 common shares of the Company, at a price of $0.05 in the first year and $0.10 in the second year. The remaining debt, consisting of $730,447 owed to one creditor and the full amount of the penalty, will not be convertible. The Company has also agreed to grant to the holders of the convertible portion of the New Debentures 57,613,829 warrants, exercisable at $0.0625 per share for a period of two years to the holders of the convertible debentures

Additionally, as previously announced, the Company has filed the required paperwork with the TSX-V for the conversion of the $730,447 debt of the New Debenture debt with the above-mentioned creditor into 14,608,936 common shares, priced at $0.05.

On closing both these transactions, Mr. Kozar will hold New Debentures with a principal amount of $2,669,945, convertible into 63,153,395 common shares of which 14,608,936 common shares will immediately be issued. He will also own, directly and indirectly 48,544,459 of the warrants. Currently Mr. Kozar owns, directly and indirectly, 35,458,088 common shares of the Company, which represent 19.5% of the current outstanding shares. Should Mr. Kozar fully convert his New Debentures he would own, directly and indirectly 98,641,483 common shares representing 38.8% of the Company’s outstanding shares. Should he also exercise his warrants, he would receive a further 48,544,459 common shares for a total of 147,021,058 common shares representing 47.1% of the outstanding common shares. 

The closing of these two transactions will provide the Company with clarity and repayment certainty on a sizable portion of the Company’s debt. It also allows iSIGN, subject to formalizing an agreement with the party owning the additional technology, to proceed with the introduction of new technology to its customers and potential funders.  

These two transactions, the New Debentures and the shares for debt, are subject to the approval of the Exchange. The Company will issue the shares related to the shares for debt transaction, which are subject to a four month hold period once approval has been received from the Exchange.

Mr. Kozar is a related party to the Corporation as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The transactions contemplated in the Agreement are exempt from the formal valuation and majority of minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemptions set forth in Sections 5.5(g) and 5.7(1)(e) of MI 61-101.
