5.Full Description of Material Change

 

5.1Full Description of Material Change

 

On December 20, 2021, the completion of a US$25 million long-term debt facility led by Horizon. IMV has drawn down US$15 million with an additional US$10 million to be made available upon achievement of a pre-set milestone.

 

US$15 million of the US$25 million facility was funded upon closing, of which CAD$4.5 million will be used to pay off IMV’s existing term loan with the government of Nova Scotia. The additional US$10 million available under the facility will be accessible upon IMV achieving a predetermined milestone. Proceeds from the facility will be used to support the ongoing clinical development of key investigational product candidates within IMV’s pipeline and for general working capital purposes.

 

In connection with this debt financing, IMV has agreed to issue the lenders warrants (the “Loan Warrants”) to purchase up to 568,180 common shares of the Corporation (the “Shares”) at an exercise price of US$1.32 per Share until December 17, 2031. 454,544 Loan Warrants have been issued on December 17, 2021, and the balance of 113,636 Loan Warrants is expected to be issued upon drawdown of the additional US$10 million available under the facility which will be accessible upon IMV achieving a predetermined milestone. The Loan Warrants and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months following the issuance of the Loan Warrants in accordance with applicable securities laws. For the purpose of Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) approval, the Corporation is relying on the exemption set forth in Section 602.1 of the TSX Company Manual, which provides that the TSX will not apply its standards to certain transactions involving eligible interlisted issuers on a recognized exchange, such as NASDAQ, provided that the transaction is being completed in compliance with the requirements of such other recognized exchange.
