Abcourt Closes a Fourth Tranche of the Private Placement of Units Previously Announced, for an Amount of $1,060,000
May 31 2024 - 5:02PM
Abcourt Mines Inc. (“Abcourt” or the “Corporation”) (TSX
Venture: ABI) (OTCQB: ABMBF) announces that it has
completed a fourth closing of the non-brokered private placement
announced on March 12, 2024 (the "Private Placement"), for
additional gross proceeds of $1,060,000, representing 21,200,000
units of the Corporation (the “Units”), at a price of $0.05 per
Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Corporation (a
"Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a
"Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles its holder to subscribe for one
Common Share at a price of $0.06 for a period of 36 months.
To date, Abcourt has issued a total of
75,883,000 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,794,150 under
the Private Placement. The Corporation expects to close a final
tranche of the Private Placement on or before June 27, 2024.
It is expected that the net proceeds from the
Private Placement will be used to advance activities for
development and exploration at the Sleeping Giant Gold Project in
the Abitibi Greenstone belt of Quebec and for working capital and
general corporate purposes.
The closing of this fourth tranche constitutes a
“related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral
Instrument 61–101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions (“MI 61–101”) as a result of
the purchase of 18,000,000 additional Units by SARL MF, an
affiliate of François Mestrallet, a “related party” of the
Corporation. The Corporation has relied on exemptions from the
formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of
MI 61–101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61–101
in respect of the Private Placement as the fair market value (as
determined under MI 61-101) of the insider participation in the
Private Placement is below 25% of the Corporation 's market
capitalization (as determined in accordance with MI 61-101).
All securities issued in connection with the
Private Placement are subject to a restricted period ending on the
date that is four months plus one day following the date of their
issuance, in accordance with Canadian securities laws. The Private
Placement is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange.
The securities offered have not been registered
under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be
offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an
applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news
release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in
any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful.
