Bluerush Announces Closing of Private Placement
TORONTO, July 30, 2020 /CNW/ - BlueRush Inc. ("BlueRush" or the "Company") (TSX-V: BTV), an emerging personalized video Software as a Service ("SaaS") company, is pleased to announce the second and final closing of its previously announced private placement financing. Pursuant to the second and final tranche, BlueRush raised gross proceeds of $250,000 through the issuance of unsecured convertible debentures (the "Debentures"). Accordingly, the total amount raised in the financing is $1,450,000. The Debentures accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum and will mature on May 31, 2023. The net proceeds of the financing will be primarily used for working capital as the Company continues to build the IndiVideo product. All securities issued pursuant to the financing are subject to a four-month hold period.
"The capital BlueRush has raised will provide the company with a lengthened runway as we continue to strengthen IndiVideo's product offering. We are seeing, now more than ever, a need for companies to adopt meaningful digital solutions. We are grateful to our investors who are allowing BlueRush the opportunity to continue to deliver upon the strategy we laid out three years ago," said Steve Taylor, CEO of BlueRush. "We believe that interactive personalized video will become a core component of all digital marketing budgets and are confident that IndiVideo will be the clear winner as we continue to invest in our self-serve functionality. Despite strong interest from our investors, we ultimately decided not to fill the entire proposed amount of $1.5M as a result of the robust government programs available to businesses during COVID-19," stated Mr. Taylor.
