RNS Number : 5845C Orosur Mining Inc 27 March 2025
Orosur Announces Closing of Brokered Private Placement for Gross Proceeds of
C$6.0 Million
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED
STATES.
London, March 27(th), 2025 - Orosur Mining Inc. ("Orosur" or the "Company")
(TSX-V/AIM:OMI) is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced
"best efforts" private placement offering (the "Offering") for aggregate gross
proceeds of C$6,000,000, which includes the full exercise of the agent's
option for gross proceeds of C$1,000.000. Under the Offering, the Company sold
an aggregate of 35,294,117 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of
C$0.17 per Unit.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Unit Share")
and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a
"Warrant"). Each whole Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common
share of the Company (each, a "Warrant Share") at a price of C$0.25 at any
time on or before March 27, 2027.
Red Cloud Securities Inc. (the "Agent") acted as sole agent and bookrunner in
connection with the Offering. In consideration for their services, the Agent
received a cash commission of C$313,860 and 1,846,235 broker warrants (the
"Broker Warrants"). Each Broker Warrant shall be exercisable for one common
share of the Company at a price of C$0.17 per common share at any time on or
before March 27, 2027. Additionally, as consideration for financial advisory
services in connection with the Offering, the Company paid the Agent an
advisory fee of $8,070.00 and issued 47,470 advisory warrants (the "Advisory
Warrants") to the Agent. Each Advisory Warrant is exercisable into one common
share on the same terms as the Broker Warrants. The common shares issuable
pursuant to the Broker Warrants and the Advisory Warrants are subject to a
hold period in Canada ending on July 28, 2025.
Subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and in
accordance with National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions ("NI
45-106"), 29,411,764 Units (the "LIFE Units") were sold to purchasers in the
provinces of British Columbia Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan (the
"Canadian Selling Jurisdictions") pursuant to the listed issuer financing
exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106. The Unit Shares and Warrant Shares
underlying the LIFE Units will be immediately freely tradeable under
applicable Canadian securities legislation if sold to purchasers resident in
Canada.
5,882,353 Units were sold to purchasers outside of Canada, including to
purchasers resident in the United States pursuant to one or more exemptions
from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of
1933, as amended.
Due to the high level of investor demand, the directors were unable to
participate in the Offering as previously anticipated.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering principally to
advance the Company's Anzá exploration project in Colombia as well as for
general working capital and corporate purposes.
The securities offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the
United States Securities Act, of 1933 (the "U.S. Securities Act") as amended,
or any state securities law, and may not be offered, sold or delivered,
directly or indirectly, within the United States, or to or for the account or
benefit of U.S. persons, absent registration or an exemption from such
registration requirements. This news release does not constitute an offer to
sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of
securities in any state in the United States in which such offer, solicitation
or sale would be unlawful.
Application has been made for the 35,294,117 common shares, which rank parri
passu with the existing common shares in issue, to be admitted to trading on
AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and
dealings will occur at 8:00am UK time on or around 31 March 2025.
Following the closing of the Offering and for the purposes of the Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company will have 312,439,904 Common
Shares in issue. This figure includes an additional 2,055,932 new common
shares of no par value each issued following an exercise of 2,055,932 warrants
from its block listing announced January 8(th) 2025. Shareholders may use this
figure as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if
they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest
in, the issued share capital of the Company.
