The proceeds from the private placement will be used to fund the previously announced transaction with Kneat Solutions Limited ("Kneat") and provide adequate working capital to list a newly formed exploration company ("Spinco") that is expected to be listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Chief Executive Officer of the Company subscribed for an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares.
The Board of Fortune Bay has also approved the issuance of a Series A Secured Debenture to Kneat of 1,000,000 ("the Debenture") with an interest rate of 7.25% per annum and a maturity date of July 1, 2016. In the event the Arrangement is completed prior to the July 1, 2016, the Debenture will become an intercompany loan between Fortune Bay and Kneat. In addition, the required Fortune Bay net cash balance of $8.2 million due on closing will be reduced by the amount of the Debenture plus all accrued interest.
