MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / February 26, 2016 / Earth Alive Clean Technologies (CSE: EAC) (“Earth Alive”) announces that it has completed a non-brokered private placement, in the amount of $1,513,400 through the sale of 4,324,000 units, priced at $0.35 each. Each unit consisting in one common share and one half (1/2) of one common share purchase warrant. Each full warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share of Earth Alive, at the price of $0.45, for a period of 18 months. All securities issued are subject to a four month hold period.

Certain insiders have participated in the private placement for the aggregate amount of $285,250: i) Michel Ringuet, a director, subscribed for units in the amount of $210,000, through a holding company, and accordingly now holds 2,850,000 Shares (3.01% on an undiluted basis); and ii) Benoit Lasalle, a director, subscribed in the amount of $75,250, through a holding company, and accordingly now holds 1,643,571 (1.73% on a undiluted basis). Pursuant to Regulation 61-101 Respecting protection of minority security holders in special transactions (“Rule 61-101”), each of these transactions constitutes a “related party transaction” and as such, minority shareholder approval and a formal valuation can be required. However, the board has determined that such transactions meet the exemptions set out in Rule 61-101 (sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a)) as the value of the transaction does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Earth Alive. The participation of insiders in the financing and the extent of such participation was not finalized until shortly prior to the completion of the financing. Accordingly, it was not possible to publicly disclose details at least 21 days prior to the completion date.
