NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Terrace Energy Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TZR)(OTCQX:TCRRF)(FRANKFURT:2TR) is pleased to announce that it intends to carry out a second non-brokered private placement of convertible, unsecured promissory notes in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $15,000,000 (the "Convertible Notes").
The Convertible Notes will have the following material attributes:
| Maturity Date: | April 2, 2018 |
| interest rate: | 8% per annum, payable quarterly (based on the Company's fiscal year) |
| Conversion price: | $2.00 per share |
The principal amount owing under the Convertible Notes will be due and payable on the Maturity Date, unless earlier redeemed or converted pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes.
The Company would have the right to convert all or part of the Convertible Notes into common shares at any time after April 2, 2014 if the market price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange trades at $2.80 or higher for a period of 30 consecutive trading days. In addition, the Company would have a limited right to redeem all or part of the Convertible Notes at any time after April 2, 2014 by offering cash equal to 1.08 multiplied by the principal amount that is called for redemption, subject to the terms of the Convertible Notes.
Holders of the Convertible Notes may convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount of their Convertible Notes at the conversion price at any time up to the Maturity Date, in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a change of control of the Company where a person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding common shares of the Company, holders of Convertible Notes will be entitled to require the Company to redeem the Convertible Notes in certain circumstances.
The Convertible Notes are non-transferable unless otherwise agreed to by the Company.
The Company may pay a finders' fee to eligible brokers in respect of a portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes.
Insiders of the Company may purchase up to 10% the principal amount of the Convertible Notes.
The issuance of the Convertible Notes is conditional upon, among other things, the receipt of final documentation and TSX Venture Exchange approval. There can be no assurance given that the proposed private placement of Convertible Notes will close.
The proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Notes would be used to fund current and proposed financial commitments and for general working capital purposes.
