Archer Share Purchase Plan to raise up to $2.25 million
Archer Exploration Limited (“Company” or “Archer”) is pleased to announce a Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”) to raise up to $2.25 million to fund the Company’s activities, in particular:
-
The integration of the Carbon Allotropes online market place with Archer’s graphite business.
-
Further development of the Eyre Peninsula Graphite Project, including the growth of the Company’s graphite and graphene business.
-
Copper and cobalt focussed exploration activities at Blue Hills and North Broken Hill.
-
To provide the Company with working capital to enable it to support its activities.
The SPP is only available to Australian and New Zealand shareholders who were registered as Archer shareholders at 7:00pm (CDT) on Friday, 3 November 2017 (“Eligible Shareholders”).
The SPP entitles Eligible Shareholders to purchase up to $15,000 of new fully paid ordinary Archer shares (“Shares”) at an issue price of $0.075 (7.5 cents) per Share and free of all brokerage and commissions.
Eligible Shareholders will also receive one free attaching unlisted option (“Option”) for every two Shares subscribed for and issued under the SPP. Each unlisted Option will have an exercise price of 7.5 cents and an expiry date of 28 February 2019.
The SPP issue price of $0.075 per new Share represents a discount of:
-
12.8% to Archer’s last closing price on 3 November 2017, which was the last trading day prior to the date of the announcement of the SPP; and
-
5.8% to Archer’s 5 day volume weighted average price for the last 5 days on which Archer Shares were traded prior to the date of the announcement of the SPP.
Participation in the SPP is entirely voluntary.
The SPP is capped at $2.25 million and is not underwritten. All applications will be processed on a “first in first served” basis. However, the directors reserve the right to allot fewer Shares than an Eligible Shareholder applies for or to reject an application in full. Any excess monies received will be returned to those to applicants without interest.
Full details of the SPP Offer will be contained in a booklet which is anticipated to be dispatched to Eligible Shareholders on Monday, 13 November 2017.
