VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solar Alliance Energy Inc. (‘Solar Alliance’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: SOLR) intends to issue 1,520,000 units (each a “Unit”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit to raise proceeds of $76,000 through a non-brokered private placement (the “Financing”).  Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). One Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Share of the Company at a price of $0.08 per Share for a period of three years from the date of issue. The Shares issued in connection with the Financing will be subject to a four-month and a day hold period. In addition, the Financing is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Proceeds of the Financing will be used for working capital.

The Chairman and CEO of the Company (the "Purchasing Insider") is expected to purchase all the Units pursuant to the Financing.  Pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), a purchase by the Purchasing Insider would be a "related party transaction".  The Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation or minority shareholder approval in connection with the Financing in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities received by such parties nor the proceeds for such securities received by the Company exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.
