LDA Capital subscribes for 49,850,800 shares.
-
Classic receives AUD $47,500.
Classic Minerals Limited ( CLZ or Company ) advises that the pricing period for the LDA Capital Limited ( LDA ) subscription has expired, by mutual consent, and LDA has now completed the subscription for shares pursuant to the Call Notice given to LDA as announced on 06 July 2023 (see ASX Announcement: Classic Submits Call Notice to LDA Capital).
LDA has subscribed for 49,850,800 shares ( Subscription Shares ) of the 51,000,000 shares ( Collateral Shares ) put to LDA pursuant to the Call Notice for a total of $47,500.00 at a price per Subscription Share of $0.00095. The price per Subscription Share represents the mutually agreed price during this pricing period exclusive of adjusting events being $0.001. The remaining 1,149,200 Collateral Shares for which LDA has not subscribed will remain in the account of LDA to be applied for any further Call Notice to be put to LDA Capital Limited.
CLZ submitted the capital Call Notice under the terms of its strategic $15 million Put Option Agreement (Agreement or facility) with the US-based financier announced in December 2022. ( See ASX Announcement dated 15 December 2022: Classic secures A$20.0m institutional funding package ).
Under the terms of the Facility, LDA can subscribe for a minimum of 50% and a maximum of 200% of the Shares put to LDA Capital.
Chairman John Lester said the LDA facility had allowed the Company access to capital at reasonable rates. “The LDA Capital Facility was established specifically to ensure the Company had access to a reliable source of capital not wholly dependent on volatile, short-term shifts in equity market sentiment,” he said. Mr Lester said the capital injection will be used to progress work at Kat Gap.
