Waterloo, ONTARIO - December 9, 2013 - MXM Nation Inc. ("MXM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that in 2013 it has closed private placement financings for total gross proceeds of CAD$1,250,200 (the "Offering").
"With the MXM Nation online network, we ushered in a social sponsorship platform for motocross brands to connect with extreme sports athletes." stated Myles Bartholomew, CEO. "Now with this new funding in place, we will be taking social sponsorship to a new level through many other social networks where people are passionate about the brands they love."
The Offering consisted of an aggregate of 4,167,333 units of the Company ("Units") at a purchase price of $0.30 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.30 for a period of two years from the date of issuance.
On November 14, 2013, MXM and New International Infopet Systems Ltd. ("Infopet") entered into an agreement of purchase and sale whereby Infopet will acquire 100% of the shares of MXM (the "Transaction"). Infopet has also applied to list on the CNSX. Infopet called a shareholders' meeting scheduled for January 8, 2014 to approve, among other things, a name change to SponsorsOne Inc. In connection with this proposed Transaction, each MXM share will be acquired by Infopet for one Infopet common share and one half of a share purchase warrant of Infopet exercisable at $0.65 for a period of one year from the date of the completion of the Transaction. The outstanding warrants and options of MXM will also be exchanged for Infopet warrants and options on a one-for-one basis. Upon completion of the Transaction, SponsorsOne Inc. will be a public company listed on the CNSX and the former MXM shareholders will hold approximately 91.61% of its outstanding shares.
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used for product development, sales and marketing, acquisition costs and general corporate purposes.
