VANCOUVER, July 03, 2019 - Osino Resources Corp. (TSXV: OSI) (FSE: RSR1) ("Osino” or “the Company”), is pleased to announce that as a result of positive institutional and retail demand for its previously announced financing (please refer to the Company’s May 21, 2019 press release), the Company plans to upsize its non-brokered private placement up to 10,000,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of CDN$0.35 per Unit to raise gross proceeds of up to CDN$3.5 million (the “Offering”).
Each Unit is comprised of one common share (a “Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Share at an exercise price of CDN$0.55 per Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund expenditures at the Company’s exploration projects in Namibia and for general working capital purposes. The Offering is scheduled to close on or about July 8th, 2019 (the “Closing Date”) and is subject to certain conditions customary for transactions of this nature, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The issuer has also requested an extension of the Offering to July 19, 2019.
Canaccord Genuity Corporation is acting as financial advisor in connection with the Offering. All securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period in Canada of four months and one day following the Closing Date. The Company may pay finder’s fees in connection with the Offering.
Certain directors, officers and other insiders of Osino may acquire Units under the Offering. Any such participation would be considered to be a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). However, any such related party transaction will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any Shares issued to or the consideration paid by such persons will exceed 25% of Osino’s market capitalization.
