Southern Arc Minerals (TSX VENTURE:SA)(OTCQX:SOACF) ("Southern Arc") today
announced that the Company has purchased additional shares and warrants in Eagle
Hill Exploration Corporation ("Eagle Hill") (TSX VENTURE:EAG)(OTCQX:EHECF).
Eagle Hill is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the exploration
and development of the high-grade Windfall Lake Gold Deposit, located between
Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Quebec.
As part of Eagle Hill's non-brokered private placement of up to $3.5 million
(the "Offering") announced on March 28, 2014, Southern Arc has purchased
7,518,797 million units in a structured transaction involving the issuance of
flow-through units to investors, their donation to charity and subsequent resale
by charities to Southern Arc. Southern Arc has paid $0.07 per unit for an
investment of $526,316. Each unit consists of one common share (a "Share") of
Eagle Hill and one share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") of Eagle Hill. Each
Warrant entitles Southern Arc to acquire one Share at a price of $0.10 until
April 8, 2016. Proceeds from the flow-through portion of the Offering will be
used for exploration expenses at Eagle Hill's Windfall Lake Gold Project.
Southern Arc has also agreed to participate in the "hard dollars" portion of
Eagle Hill's financing and has agreed to purchase approximately 3.6 million
units directly from Eagle Hill. Southern Arc will pay an additional $250,000 for
the "hard dollars" units for a total investment, including the flow-through
units, of $776,316. Proceeds from the hard dollars portion of the Offering will
be used for Eagle Hill's general working capital.
In August 2013, Southern Arc invested $7,324,050 to acquire 97,654,000 shares of
Eagle Hill and 48,827,000 warrants of Eagle Hill exercisable at a price of $0.10
until August 14, 2017. With the flow-through portion of the Offering complete,
Southern Arc currently owns 105,172,797 shares and 56,345,797 warrants of Eagle
Hill. Following closing of the full Offering, it is anticipated that Southern
Arc will hold 108,744,226 Eagle Hill shares, representing 23.9% of Eagle Hill's
issued and outstanding shares. It is anticipated that Southern Arc will also
hold 59,917,226 Eagle Hill warrants with an average exercise price of $0.10
which, if all Eagle Hill options and warrants are exercised, would represent a
27.6% interest in Eagle Hill on a fully diluted basis. Dundee Corporation
("Dundee") (TSX: DC.A) is also participating in the Offering and has agreed to
purchase approximately 10.7 million units. Upon closing of the Offering, it is
anticipated that Dundee will own 28.9% of Eagle Hill on an undiluted basis, and
28.3% on a fully diluted basis.
