ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
Date: 8 April 2014 ASX CODE: COY
NON-RENOUNCEABLE ENTITLEMENT OFFER AND PLACEMENT
Coppermoly Limited ( Coppermoly ) is pleased to advise that the board of directors ( Board ) has resolved to undertake a non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer to raise up to $5,275,870 (before costs).
Eligible Shareholders (as defined overleaf) will be offered the opportunity to acquire one new fully paid ordinary share in Coppermoly ( New Share ) for every one Share held as at the Record Date at an issue price of $0.02 per New Share, with no minimum subscription ( Offer ).
Eligible Shareholders will also receive one option to acquire a further Share for every three New Shares issued for no additional consideration ( Attaching Options ). The Attaching Options will have an exercise price of $0.05 and will be exercisable at any time prior to 5:00pm AEST on 1 July 2015.
The issue price for the New Shares, of $0.02 per New Share, represents a 9.1% discount to the closing price of Coppermoly’s Shares on the ASX on 7 April 2014, being the last trading day prior to today’s date. The VWAP of Coppermoly’s Shares over 30 calendar days up to and including 7 April 2014 was $0.021.
Eligible Shareholders will also be entitled to subscribe for any New Shares that are not taken up by other Eligible Shareholders in accordance with the Offer ( Shortfall Offer ).
Coppermoly's Managing Director, Maurice Gannon said:
“Having reacquired control of our core assets and reactivated exploration and drilling under our own management Coppermoly is now at a point where we can really add value. This capital raising is all about making sure the company is set to fulfil its plans for this year and next”
“We want to ensure that the equity in Coppermoly’s exploration and mineral assets remains in the hands of Shareholders who have supported Coppermoly thus far. We will be investing the majority of the funds directly into very targeted exploration and drilling. We also want to ensure that Shareholders have the opportunity to benefit from any improvement in asset values generated as the funds are put to work over the next year”.
Coppermoly is also intending to undertake private placements of up to $500,000 worth of Shares to sophisticated and professional investors, also at an issue price of $0.02, which will be accompanied by one unquoted option for every three Shares issued which will be exercisable at $0.05 at any time prior to 5:00pm AEST on 1 July 2015.
If any of these Shares are placed before the Record Date for the Offer, the allottees will be entitled to participate in the Offer and the amount to be raised under the Offer will therefore increase accordingly.
An offer document in connection with the Offer and Shortfall Offer is expected to be lodged with the ASX on or about Monday, 14 April 2014 ( Offer Document ) and will be mailed to Eligible Shareholders shortly thereafter. A copy of the Offer Document will also be available for review on ASX’s website (www.asx.com.au) and on Coppermoly’s website (www.coppermoly.com.au) after it is lodged with the ASX.
Further details regarding the Offer are contained overleaf.
On behalf of the Board.
Maurice Gannon Managing Director Coppermoly Limited
Non-renounceable Entitlement Offer

The Offer is non-renounceable, meaning that Eligible Shareholders will not be able to transfer their entitlements under the Offer and, if they do not take up their entitlements under the Offer, will be diluted.

Further details regarding the Offer and Shortfall Offer and the rights and liabilities attaching to the New Shares and Attaching Options will be contained in the Offer Document for the Offer.
