The Offering remains subject to the approval of the Exchange. The proceeds of the Offering will be used for exploration activities on its Canadian properties and working capital respectively. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period from the Closing Date under applicable securities laws.
To demonstrate continued support of the Company's growth plans, insiders of the Company, including certain directors and officers, are expected to participate in the Private Placement. Such participation is considered a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The related party transaction will be exempt from minority approval, information circular and formal valuation requirements pursuant to the exemptions contained in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the gross securities to be issued under the Private Placement nor the consideration to be paid by the insiders will exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
The Units have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws
