LeddarTech Announces Adjustments to Warrant Exercise Price and Related Terms

Published

on

QUEBEC CITY, Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — LeddarTech Holdings Inc. (“LeddarTech“) (Nasdaq: LDTC), an automotive software company that provides patented disruptive AI-based low-level sensor fusion and perception software technology for ADAS, AD and parking applications, today announced that in accordance with the terms of the outstanding warrants expiring December 21, 2028 (CUSIP: 52328E113) (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of LeddarTech common stock without par value, the Warrant exercise price will be reduced to US $11.17 per share from the current US $11.50 per share. Corresponding adjustments will be made to the redemption provisions applicable to the Warrants. The adjustments are effective as of the close of business on February 9, 2024.

The adjustments are being made after LeddarTech considered the potentially dilutive impact on the Warrants of the share dividend (the “Prospector Share Dividend”) previously declared and paid by Prospector Capital Corp. (“Prospector”) to non-redeeming Prospector public stockholders at the time of the closing of the business combination between LeddarTech and Prospector, as more fully described in LeddarTech’s public filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Prospector Share Dividend was not made with respect to any other Prospector or LeddarTech shares issued and outstanding prior to or upon consummation of the business combination.

Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, LeddarTech retained an independent investment banking firm of recognized national standing who rendered their opinion that an adjusted exercise price of US $11.17, without any adjustment to the number of common shares issuable upon exercise, would be necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of the anti-dilution provisions set forth in the warrant agreement. Further information on the Warrants and the adjustment to the Warrant exercise price, including the U.S. Federal income tax treatment of this adjustment, is available in the “Investors” section of LeddarTech’s website.

Tulufan, Xinjiang: For the first time, a new energy plant and station has achieved “all-green electricity” operation

Published

on

By

TULUFAN, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On September 19, employees of State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company came to State Power Investment Zhongli Tenghui Qiquanhu Photovoltaic Power Station to provide comprehensive technical support and guidance for new energy enterprises.

Seven wind power and photovoltaic power generation enterprises, including Xinjiang Jize Power Generation Company in Tulufan, have obtained 6.035 million KWH of grid electricity by purchasing 6,035 “green certificates” to achieve “green electricity – green electricity” and achieve green energy use in the whole link of new energy power generation.

The green power certificate, referred to as “green certificate”, is the only certificate that identifies the production and consumption of renewable energy power. Promoting the all-green operation of new energy power generation is an important measure to promote the green consumption of renewable energy.

“Before, we were just ‘producers’ of green electricity. Now the buyers of green certificates have become green electricity consumers, and the production process is fully green.” Qiquan Lake photovoltaic power station inspection officer Forzati Dilishati said.

Since the launch of the green electricity and green certificate market, State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company has actively promoted green electricity trading, promoted the supply of green electricity and green certificates in multiple scenarios, promoted the rapid promotion and popularization of related services in Tulufan, and helped build a new power system.

In the first eight months of this year, the cumulative volume of green electricity transactions in Xinjiang reached 1.174 billion KWH, 93.83 times that of the whole year of 2022.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, PayPal Ventures, the global venture capital arm of PayPal, announced an additional investment in Chaos Labs, an industry leader in onchain risk management. This investment underscores PayPal Ventures’ confidence in Chaos Labs’ potential and their blockchain products.

Chaos Labs’ recent launch of Edge, a new decentralized oracle protocol, has garnered significant attention within the industry. Edge has already secured a remarkable $30B over the last 2 months and has been adopted by leading exchanges such as Jupiter, the top perpetuals exchange on Solana, and GMX, the leading exchange on Arbitrum.

Edge offers a comprehensive, low-latency oracle solution, combining accurate price data with actionable market intelligence. Its advanced architecture ensures the security and efficiency of DeFi applications while providing insights into market dynamics and security risks. Edge monitors the market for specific risk signals, performs the offchain data parsing and computation, and outputs one actionable data point.

Omer Goldberg, CEO and Founder of Chaos Labs, said, “We’re excited to receive the strong confidence and additional support from the PayPal Ventures team. Edge by Chaos is the culmination of our entire company’s work and expertise. Edge Price, Risk, and Proofs deliver meaningful and unmatched contextualized risk and price data for assets including stablecoins and other real-world-assets, in addition to the crypto assets and venues that provide access to them.”

Last month, Chaos Labs announced a $55 million Series A funding round led by Haun Ventures, including prominent new investors such as F-Prime Capital, Slow Ventures, and Spartan Capital, and existing investors including PayPal Ventures. Chaos Labs has experienced significant growth, tripling its customer base and securing billions in trading volume, loans, and incentives.

PayPal Ventures’ investment aligns with PayPal’s ongoing commitment to the blockchain ecosystem. In May 2024, PayPal launched its stablecoin, PYUSD, on the Solana blockchain.

Amman Bhasin, Partner at PayPal Ventures, said, “Our continued investment in Chaos Labs reflects our belief in their vision to create a safer crypto ecosystem and move more financial services on chain. Chaos Labs has emerged as a leading risk authority in the sector and we are thrilled to witness their evolution as they launch innovative products like Edge to mitigate oracle vulnerabilities.”
