CALGARY,
AB, Sept. 26, 2024 /CNW/ - Horizon Petroleum
Ltd. (NEX: HPL.H)
Further to its press releases of August
8, 2024 and September 18,
2024, ("Horizon" or the "Company") announces that it has
received TSX Venture Exchange approval to extend the closing
of its non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") to
October 31, 2024. The Company has
agreed to sell up to $1,000,000 in
subscription receipts ("Subscription Receipts") (the "Subscription
Receipt Private Placement") and units ("Units") ("Unit Private
Placement"), in a non-brokered private placement basis at a price
of CA$0.11 (the "Offering"). The Company has previously disclosed a
closing of a first tranche for gross proceeds of $718,324.94 on September
18, 2024. Horizon expects to close a second tranche in the
next few weeks.
In connection with the Offering, certain insiders are expected
to purchase Units in the Offering. Each of the insiders is a
related party of Horizon, and as a result, the Offering will be a
related party transaction for purposes of Multilateral Instrument
61-101 – Protection of Minority Shareholders in Special
Transactions ("MI 61-101").
The Company intends to rely on exemptions from the formal
valuation and minority approval requirements of sections 5.5(a) and
5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of such insider participation,
based on a determination that fair market value of the
participation in the Offering by insiders will not exceed 25% of
the market capitalization of Horizon, as determined in accordance
with MI 61-101.
In connection with the Offering, Horizon may pay finder's fees
of up to 7% cash and up to 7% convertible securities, or a
combination of both, as permitted by the policies of the TSX-V. The
net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used for general
and administrative expenses and for advancing certain concession
fees upon signing the concession agreements for
the Bielsko-Biala and Cieszyn concessions located in southwest
Poland.
