Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Biotricity Inc. entered exchange agreements on May 1, 2026 with holders of 14,144,325 common shares, options for 3,992,427 shares, and warrants for 1,436,216 shares. These securities were exchanged for 1,957,297 shares of newly created Series C Preferred Stock on a ten‑for‑one basis.

The company designated 2,100,000 Series C Preferred shares, each carrying 40 votes. After any equity financing raising at least $15 million, outstanding Series C will automatically convert into 59.6% of Biotricity’s common stock. If no such financing occurs by March 31, 2028, each Series C share may convert into 10 common shares.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Potentially significant dilution and control concentration: Upon a qualified financing, Series C Preferred Stock will convert into 59.6% of outstanding common shares, creating a dominant ownership and voting position relative to current common shareholders.

Insights

Biotricity creates super‑voting preferred stock with large potential ownership stake.

Biotricity exchanged over 19 million equity instruments for 1,957,297 Series C Preferred shares held by existing stakeholders, including officers and directors. Each preferred share carries 40 votes, and 2,100,000 shares were authorized, indicating a significant new voting class.

Upon any equity financing raising at least $15 million, all Series C converts into 59.6% of the company’s outstanding common stock, which would be a substantial ownership and voting block. If no such financing occurs by March 31, 2028, each preferred share becomes 10 common shares, still a large issuance.

The company relied on a Section 4(a)(2) exemption, so these issuances were not registered publicly. The eventual effect on existing common holders will depend on whether a qualified financing occurs and the resulting capital structure at that time.

Series C Preferred Stock financial
"Holders of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Holders”) will be entitled to 40 votes"
A Series C preferred stock is a specific class of ownership issued during a later funding round that gives holders priority over common shareholders for getting paid and receiving dividends, like having a reserved lane in traffic when money is distributed. It often includes agreed rights such as a fixed payout, protection against dilution, and the option to convert into common shares, so investors treat it as a mix of safety and upside potential.
Qualified Financing financial
"Effective upon the closing of any offering of equity securities in which the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $15 million (a “Qualified Financing”)"
Certificate of Designation regulatory
"the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada"
A certificate of designation is a formal document that spells out the specific rights and rules attached to a particular class or series of stock, usually preferred shares. Think of it as a rulebook or menu that lists dividend terms, liquidation priority, conversion or redemption rights and any special voting protections; investors use it to judge how much income, control or downside protection those shares will provide compared with other securities.
Section 4(a)(2) regulatory
"the Company relied upon the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933"
Section 4(a)(2) is a part of U.S. securities laws that allows companies to sell their stock directly to certain investors without registering the sale with regulators. This process is often used for private placements, making it easier and faster for companies to raise money from knowledgeable or institutional investors. It matters to investors because it provides an alternative way to buy shares, often with fewer disclosures and lower costs.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 1, 2026, Biotricity Inc. (the “Company”) entered into exchange agreements with holders (the “Exchange Holders”) of an aggregate of 14,144,325 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Exchange Shares”), options (the “Exchange Options”) to purchase 3,992,427 shares of common stock of the Company, and warrants (the “Exchange Warrants,” and together with the Exchange Shares and the Exchange Options, the “Exchange Securities”) to purchase 1,436,216 shares of common stock of the Company. The Exchange Holders include officers and directors of the Company.

 

Pursuant to the exchange agreements, the Exchange Holders exchanged their Exchange Securities for an aggregate of 1,957,297 shares of newly created Series C Preferred Stock of the Company (on the basis of ten Exchange Securities for one share of Series C Preferred Stock).

 

In connection with the exchange agreements, on May 1, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 2,100,000 shares as Series C Preferred Stock. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Holders”) will be entitled to 40 votes for each share of Series C Preferred Stock. Effective upon the closing of any offering of equity securities in which the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $15 million (a “Qualified Financing”), outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock will automatically convert into an aggregate of 59.6% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock (the “Conversion Shares”). In the event the Company issues warrants in such Qualified Financing, Series C Holders will also receive warrants in the form issued in the Qualified Financing and in the same ratio to the Conversion Shares as the warrant coverage in the Qualified Financing. In the event the Company has not consummated a Qualified Financing by March 31, 2028, Series C Holders will have the right to convert each share of Series C Preferred Stock to 10 shares of common stock.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the exchange agreements and Certificate of Designation are qualified by reference to the full text of such documents, which are filed as exhibits to this report.
