Magellan Announces Shares for Debt Agreement
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Dec 5, 2014) - Magellan Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MNM) ("Magellan") announces that it has entered into a debt settlement agreement with one of its creditors, a provider of financial advisory services to Magellan in connection with the Coringa feasibility study.
The principal terms of the agreement are as follows:
- Magellan will issue 349,718 common shares (the "Shares") to the creditor at a deemed price of $0.10 per Share in full satisfaction of the total amount owing of US$ 30,828.42 (being $34,971.76 applying the agreed foreign exchange rate of 1.1344)
- The Shares will be subject to a four month hold period
- The agreement is subject to TSX-V approval.
Magellan also announces that in connection with its recently completed private placement (see news release dated December 2, 2014), Canada Cowoo Mining Corp. ("CCMC") acquired 30,000,000 units of Magellan. Each unit consisted of one common share and one-half of one share purchase warrant of Magellan. The 30,000,000 common shares acquired represent approximately 18.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Magellan.
As a result of the forgoing acquisition, CCMC has direct and indirect control and direction over a total of 30,000,000 common shares of Magellan representing approximately 18.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Magellan on a non-diluted basis. CCMC also has direct and indirect control and direction over a total of 15,000,000 share purchase warrants. If CCMC were to exercise all of its warrants, it would then own 45,000,000 common shares of Magellan representing approximately 25.2% of the issued and outstanding shares assuming that no further common shares of Magellan have been issued (including the 349,718 Shares referred to above).
30,000,000 units of Magellan were acquired at a price of $0.10 per unit for total consideration of $3,000,000.
The securities acquired will be held for investment purposes. CCMC may, depending on market and other conditions, increase or decrease its beneficial ownership of Magellan's securities, whether in the open market, by privately negotiated agreements or otherwise, subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and other available investment and business opportunities.
This press release is issued pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 62-104 and a report respecting the above acquisition will be filed with the applicable securities commissions using the Canadian System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) and will be available for viewing at www.sedar.com.
