Dear Shareholder,
Fully Underwritten Non-Renounceable Rights Issue
As announced on 12 September 2016, Energia Minerals Limited ( ASX: EMX ) ( Company ) is proceeding with a fully underwritten pro-rata non-renounceable rights issue to raise up to approximately $6.1 million before associated costs of the issue ( Rights Issue ).
The key information in connection with the Rights Issue and important dates are set out below for your reference:
-
the Rights Issue is being undertaken on the basis of two (2) new fully paid ordinary shares for every seven (7) ordinary shares held by eligible shareholders at $0.035 (3.5 cents) per share;
-
the record date to determine entitlements for eligible shareholders is 7.00pm AEST on 15 September 2016 (Record Date). All shareholders on the Company’s register on the Record Date will be entitled to participate in the Rights Issue;
-
funds raised from the Rights Issue will be used primarily by the Company to enhance and accelerate the Gorno Zinc Project located in northern Italy including the completion of the Definitive Feasibility Study based on the expanded drilling program by the end of January 2017 and to commence preliminary work on the Riso-Parina adit rehabilitation. In addition, the funds will also be applied to continue with specific, value enhancing activities on other exploration projects and to meet general working capital requirements;
-
each new ordinary share will be issued on the same terms as those ordinary shares already issued by the Company;
-
for the purposes of calculating your entitlement, fractional entitlements to new shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares;
-
the Rights Issue is non-renounceable, that is, rights will not be tradeable on ASX or otherwise transferrable. Eligible shareholders who do not take up their entitlements in full will therefore not receive any value in respect of those entitlements that they do not take up;
-
the Rights Issue is fully underwritten by Euroz Securities Limited ( Euroz ). Unless the underwriting agreement between the Company and Euroz is terminated, the Company will receive the full amount of approximately $6.1 million before costs under the Rights Issue even if some eligible shareholders do not subscribe for their rights. The Company will pay Euroz a management fee equal to 1% of the amount to be raised under the Rights Issue and an underwriting commission of 4% of the underwritten amount (less amounts committed to by the directors of the Company and their related or associated entities);
-
through associated entities, I will be subscribing for my full entitlement in the Rights Issue;
-
Marcello Cardaci (Non-Executive Director of the Company), has also confirmed the entities in which he has a disclosed interest or association with also intend to take up their full entitlements;
3457-8197-5811v7
-
an entity with which Mr Marcello Cardaci has a current association in respect of its Energia shareholding, together with an additional related party, will sub-underwrite a portion of Euroz’s commitment;
-
a maximum of 174,005,994 ordinary shares will be issued under the Rights Issue. This number is subject to reconciliation of entitlements and rounding (fractional entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number);
-
after the Rights Issue, the Company will have up to 783,026,973 ordinary shares on issue;
-
no shareholder approval is required for the Rights Issue; and
-
the Rights Issue is being made in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) without the need for a prospectus.
