Copper North Mining Corp. Completes Unit Financing
The unit portion of the Private Placement consists of 4,750,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.06 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $285,000. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a "Share") and one half of one non-transferable warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.09 until February 3, 2017. All Shares, including Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants are subject to a hold period and may not be traded until June 4, 2015.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Unit portion of the Private Placement for technical review of the Carmacks Project and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Harlan Meade, President and CEO of the Company of the Company, purchased 335,000 Units. His participation in the Private Placement constitutes a "related party transaction" as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). This transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to, nor the consideration paid by, Dr. Meade exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement as the details of the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing of the Private Placement and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
On behalf of the Board of Directors:
Dr. Harlan Meade
President, CEO and Director
