The FT Units were sold at a price of $0.075 per FT Unit consisting of one flow-through common share and one non flow-through common share purchase warrant. One common share purchase warrant from either the NFT Units or the FT Units will entitle the holder to purchase one non flow-through common share of the Company at a price of $0.10 for a period expiring 24 months following the closing date of the Offering.
Finder’s fees consisting of a total of $48,138 cash and 724,800 finder’s warrants were paid to: Red Cloud Securities Inc. – $37,800 cash and 560,000 finder’s warrants; Haywood Securities Inc. – $9,528 cash and 154,000 finder’s warrants; and Industrial Alliance Securities Inc. – $810 cash and 10,800 finder’s warrants. Finder’s warrants are exercisable at the price of the NFT or FT Unit placed ($0.06 for NFT Units placed and $0.075 for FT Units placed) for one common share of the Company for a period of two years from closing.
All the securities issued in the Offering are subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the closing date, expiring February 3, 2021. The proceeds from the sale of FT Units will be used for exploration programs on the Company’s Ontario and Saskatchewan gold properties, and the proceeds from the sale of NFT Units will be used for general working capital.
The Company anticipates the closing of the second and final tranche of the private placement to occur on or about October 16, 2020.
