Update re BTL Group Ltd and Proposed Investment
The Board of Vela (AIM: VELA), the investing company focused on early-stage and pre-IPO disruptive technology investments, notes the announcement released on 22 March 2017 by BTL Group Ltd ("BTL") regarding a proposed fundraising by the company (the "BTL Fundraise"). Vela currently holds 689,800 common shares in BTL equivalent to approximately 4.0 per cent. of BTL's issued share capital.
Pursuant to the BTL Fundraise, BTL will issue one million equity units ("BTL Units"), each BTL Unit comprising (i) one common share in BTL ("BTL Common Shares") at C$2.70 per share, and (ii) half a warrant ("BTL Warrants") to subscribe for further BTL Common Shares. The BTL Warrants are exercisable at C$3.25 per warrant and expire after 24 months following the date of issue.
Vela intends to subscribe for 50,000 BTL Units in the BTL Fundraise for a total consideration of C$135,000 (equivalent to approx. GBP81,100) (the "Proposed Investment"). The Proposed Investment would be funded from Vela's existing cash resources. The Proposed Investment remains subject to, inter alia, Vela and BTL entering into certain documentation and at this stage there can be no guarantee that the Proposed Investment will take place.
Further announcements will be made on the Proposed Investment as appropriate.
The BTL announcement from 22 March 2017 is copied below:

Each Equity Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share of BTL and one-half of one (1/2) common share purchase warrant of BTL (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one (1) common share of BTL for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance of the Warrant, at an exercise price of CAD$3.25 per share.
The Private Placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The securities issued in connection with the Private Placement will be subject to a four-month hold period, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
BTL intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement in connection with acceleration of the development of Interbit, BTL's proprietary blockchain platform and towards general and administrative expenses.
