Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. Raises $290,000 in Private Placement of Convertible Debentures
As previously disclosed, the Company is proposing to consolidate its common shares on a 1:5 basis. The Debenture(s) issued in the Private Placement have a two year term and bear interest at 10% per annum. The principal amount of the Debentures is convertible into post-consolidated units (based on a proposed 1: 5 consolidation of Noble's shares) at Cdn$0.075 per unit for conversions within one year from issuance, and at Cdn$0.10 per unit for conversions completed in the second year after issuance. Each post-consolidated unit will consist of one post-consolidated common share of Noble and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will be exercisable for one post-consolidated common share at Cdn$0.075 for a five year period.
The Company has called a shareholders meeting for December 8, 2016 where it will ask its shareholders to approve the 1:5 share consolidation. Assuming that the consolidation proposal is duly approved by shareholders and by the TSX Venture Exchange, the Debentures issued in this first tranche of the Private Placement will then be convertible into 3,866,666 post-consolidation common shares and 3,866,666 warrants exercisable (and those warrants exercisable for 3,866,666 common shares at Cdn$0.075 per share for a five year period). Prior to the proposed share consolidation being completed or if the share consolidation is not completed, the principal amount of the Debenture(s) will be convertible into units at the option of the holders at Cdn$0.05 per unconsolidated common share unit first year, and at Cdn$0.10 per unconsolidated common share unit in the second year. Each unconsolidated unit would consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, each such warrant being exercisable for one common share at Cdn$0.05 for a five year period.
In connection with the brokered issuance of Debentures, the Company paid a cash commission of 9% on the amount raised, and issued 166,666 compensation warrants exercisable for five years, each warrant exercisable at $0.05 per share. The compensation warrants issued are subject to a hold period expiring March 18, 2017.
Noble obtained conditional approval from the TSXV for this private placement, but it remains subject to final approval from the TSXV.
