Thesis Gold Inc. (TSXV: TAU) (WKN: A2QQ0Y)
("
Thesis" or the "
Company") is
pleased to announce today that it has completed its previously
announced overnight marketed offering (the
“
Offering”) which was over-subscribed for total
gross proceeds of $18,400,000, which includes the exercise of the
Agents’ Option (as defined below).
“We are very proud to close this significant,
over-subscribed financing and we are grateful for the support of
both new and existing investors, including major institutional
support” stated Ewan Webster, Chief Executive Officer of
Thesis. “These funds will enable us to accelerate our
exploration plans at our Ranch Gold Project, where we are about to
begin an extensive 20,000 metre multi-phase drill program. We
expect that 2021 will be a transformational year for Thesis, aided
significantly by having secured this financial backing to deliver
on our plans well into 2022."
As described in a previous news release dated
June 10, 2021 announcing the Offering, the Offering was for gross
proceeds of $10,000,000 for common shares of the Company (the
“Non-Flow Through Shares”) at a price of $1.50 per
Non-Flow Through Share for the issuance of up to 6,666,666 Non-Flow
Through Shares and gross proceeds of $6,000,000 for common shares
of the Company which qualify as “flow-through shares” pursuant to
the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Flow-Through
Shares”) at a price of $1.75 per Flow-Through Share for
the issuance of up to 3,428,571 Flow-Through Shares, for combined
aggregate gross proceeds of $16,000,000. The Flow-Through Shares
and the Non-Flow-Through Shares are together, the "Offered
Shares".
The Company granted the Agents an option (the
"Agents’ Option") to offer for sale up to an additional 15% of the
Offering on the same terms, exercisable in whole or in part at any
time up to 30 days following the closing of the Offering. The
Agents exercised the Agents’ Option in full on the date hereof.
The Offering was made pursuant to an agency
agreement dated June 24, 2021 (the "Agency
Agreement") among the Company and a syndicate of agents
led by Clarus Securities Inc., and including Cormark Securities
Inc. and P.I. Financial Corp (the "Agents").
Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the Company
(i) paid the Agents a cash commission (the "Agents'
Fee") representing 6% of the gross proceeds raised under
the Offering, including any gross proceeds raised upon the exercise
of the Agents Option; and (ii) issued to the Agents
non-transferable broker warrants (each, a "Broker
Warrant") entitling the Agents to acquire that number of
Non-Flow-Through Shares equal to 6% of the total number of Offered
Shares sold pursuant to the Offering (including the Agents Option).
Each Broker Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one
Non-Flow-Through Shares at a price of $1.50 per share at any time
for a period of 18 months from the closing date of the Offering at
an exercise price equal to the Non-Flow-Through Shares offering
price.
The Flow-Through Shares and Non-Flow-Through
Shares were issued under the Offering pursuant to a short form
prospectus (the "Prospectus") dated June 24, 2021
filed in each of British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and on a
private placement basis in the United States pursuant to an
exemption from the registration requirements of the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities
Act"), and applicable state securities laws, and by
private placement to eligible purchasers resident in jurisdictions
other than Canada and the United States.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of
the Offering to fund expenditures at the Company's Ranch Gold
exploration project in British Columbia and for general working
capital purposes.
