/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S./

TORONTO, May 7, 2015 /CNW/ - VersaPay Corporation (TSXV: VPY) ("VersaPay" or the "Company"), a leading provider of cloud-based payment solutions, is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought-deal private placement (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of $4,840,001.60.

A syndicate of underwriters (the "Underwriters") led by Haywood Securities Inc. and including Cormark Securities Inc. completed the Offering of 3,457,144 units of the Company ("Units") at a price of $1.40 per Unit (the "Issue Price"). Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one-half (1/2) of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable to acquire an additional Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $2.00 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering. The expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated by VersaPay at any time following the six-month anniversary of the closing of the Offering and prior to the expiry date of the Warrants if the volume-weighted average trading price of the Common Shares is greater than $2.50 for any 20 consecutive trading days, at which time the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by issuing a press release announcing the reduced term of the Warrants whereupon the Warrants will expire on the 20th calendar day after the date of such press release.

In consideration for their services, the Underwriters will receive a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, and such number of compensation options ("Compensation Options") equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Units issued pursuant to the Offering. Each Compensation Option is exercisable for one Unit at the Issue Price for a period of 24 months from closing of the Offering.

The Company is pleased to announce the participation of new and existing retail and institutional investors, led by StableView Asset Management Inc.

The Offering remains subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued and issuable in connection with the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period expiring on September 8, 2015.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund working capital and general corporate purposes.
