5.1 Full Description of Material Change
On December 30, 2021, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement consisting of the sale of 2,403,257 flow-through units of the Company (each, an “ FT Unit ”) at a price of C$0.31 per FT Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $745,000 (the “ Offering ”).
Each FT Unit consisted of one common share of the Company issued as a “flow-through share” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (each, an “ FT Share ”) and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “ Warrant ”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “ Warrant Share ”) at a price of C$0.42 for a period of 24 months following the closing date of the Offering.
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT Shares for “Canadian Exploration Expenses” (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) (the “ Qualifying Expenditures ”) on its key projects in Canada, which will be renounced with an effective date no later than December 31, 2021 to the purchasers of the FT Units in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the FT Shares. If the Qualifying Expenditures are reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Company will indemnify each subscriber of FT Units for any additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company’s failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures.
Red Cloud Securities Inc. acted as a finder in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to the Offering, the Company paid total cash finder’s fees of C$50,750 and issued to Red Cloud 163,712 finder warrants of the Company (the “ Finder’s Warrants ”). Each Finder’s Warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of C$0.28 at any time on or before December 30, 2023.
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering (including the Finder’s Warrants) are subject to a hold period of four months and one day following the closing date of the Offering in accordance with applicable securities laws.
