Falco Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: FPC) ("
Falco" or the
"
Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has
entered into an agreement with Red Cloud Securities Inc. to act as
lead agent and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of agents
including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Paradigm Capital Inc.
(collectively, the "
Agents"), in connection with a
“best efforts” private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of up
to C$5,000,000 from the sale of the following:
- units of the Corporation (the
"Units") at a price of C$0.23 per Unit; and
- up to 3,571,429 flow-through shares of the Corporation (the
"FT Shares", and collectively with the Units, the
"Offered Securities") for gross proceeds of up to
C$1,000,000 from the sale of FT Shares.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of
the Corporation (each, a "Common 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 (each, a "Warrant
Share") at a price of C$0.35 at any time on or before that
date which is 24 months after the closing date of the Offering.
Each FT Share will consist of one Common Share to be issued as a
“flow-through share” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act
(Canada) (the "Income Tax Act").
The Corporation has granted the Agents an
option, on the same terms and conditions as the Offering,
exercisable until the second business day prior to the closing date
of the Offering, to sell up to an additional C$1,000,000 in Offered
Securities including up to C$250,000 additional FT Shares
("Agents’ Option"). If the Agents’ Option is
exercised in full, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering
would be C$6.0 million.
The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds
from the sale of Units for the advancement of the Horne 5 Project
in Québec as well as for working capital and general corporate
purposes. The net proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares will be
used to fund exploration on the Company’s other properties. The FT
Shares will be issued as "flow-through shares" as defined in
subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act. The Company will, in a
timely and prescribed manner and form, incur (or be deemed to
incur) resource exploration expenses which (i) will constitute
"Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of
the Income Tax Act and "flow through mining expenditures" as
defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act, and (ii) will,
for eligible Québec resident subscribers of FT Shares, be entitled
to both additional 10% deductions provided for under section
726.4.10 and section 726.4.17.2 of the Taxation Act (Québec)
("Qualifying Expenditures"), in an amount equal to
the amount raised pursuant to the sale of FT Shares, and the
Company will, in timely and prescribed manner and form, renounce
the Qualifying Expenditures (on a pro rata basis) to each
subscriber of FT Shares with an effective date of no later than
December 31, 2024 in accordance with the Income Tax Act and the
Taxation Act (Québec).
The Offering is anticipated to close on or about
June 27, 2024 (the "Closing
Date") and is subject to certain conditions
including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary
approvals including the approval of the TSXV.
The Offered Securities are being offered by way
of private placement in all of the provinces of Canada to investors
who qualify as "accredited investors" under Canadian securities
legislation or who are otherwise exempt from prospectus delivery
requirements. The Offering may also be offered in the United States
to "accredited investors" (as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the United
States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in such other
jurisdictions outside of Canada in accordance with applicable
law.
This press release shall not constitute an offer
to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be
any sale of the securities in the United States or in any other
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful. The securities have not been registered under the U.S.
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold
in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption
from the registration requirements thereunder.
The Common Shares issuable from the sale of
Offered Securities to "accredited investors" in Canada or otherwise
on a prospectus exempt basis will be subject to a hold period of
four months plus one day from the date of issuance of the Offered
Securities.
