Bright Green Announces Closing of $10.0 Million Private Placement

GRANTS, N.M., Sept. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bright Green Corporation (NASDAQ: BGXX) (“Bright Green” or “the Company”), one of the very few companies selected by the U.S. government to grow, manufacture, and sell, legally under federal and state laws, cannabis and cannabis-related products for research, pharmaceutical applications and affiliated export, today announced the closing of its previously announced private placement of common stock and warrants.

The Company sold 9,523,810 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,523,810 shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $1.05 per share and accompanying warrant. The warrants are immediately exercisable from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $1.05 per share, subject to adjustments as set forth therein, and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The gross proceeds to the Company from the private placement were approximately $10.0 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other estimated offering expenses.

EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, acted as exclusive placement agent for the offering. Bridgeway Capital Partners served as financial advisor to Bright Green on the transaction.

The securities were offered in a private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and have not been registered under the Act, or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and such applicable state securities laws. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the investors, the Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of common stock and the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
