In addition, Legible also announced that it has closed the first tranche of the Private Placement for gross proceeds of $758,602.69 ($481,542.66 of which was the settlement of outstanding indebtedness).

Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of $0.12, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is one (1) year from the Closing Date, provided that if the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares of the Company on the CSE is at least $0.25 per share for a period of 5 consecutive trading days, the expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated by the Company to a date that is not less than 21 days after the date that notice of such acceleration is provided to the Warrant holders by way of a press release.
"We are delighted by the very strong investor interest in our Private Placement, which is a testament to the strength of our strategic vision and our recent significant achievements. The oversubscription of the first tranche empowers us to accelerate key developments, including our pioneering Living Books and Librarian AI, while continuing to enhance the overall user experience,” said Kaleeg Hainsworth, CEO and Founder of Legible. “As we forge ahead, our focus remains steadfast on revolutionizing the reading experience, expanding our market reach, and delivering unique, multimedia-enriched content. This additional funding will serve as a catalyst for our growth and innovation, enabling us to drive greater value for our stakeholders.”
