Rights Issue of Options
Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX: EPM ) ( Eclipse Metals or the Company ) is pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has approved a pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement issue of options to shareholders.
The purpose of the Offer is to reward Shareholders for their loyalty. The Board has decided to structure the Offer as a non-renounceable entitlement issue in order to provide a cost base for tax purposes in respect of the Options offered under the Offer, cover the expenses of the Offer and to provide the company with additional working capital.
Under the Rights Issue, you will be able to subscribe for one (1) Option for every ten (10) Shares held by those Shareholders registered as at as at Record Date at an issue price of $0.002 per Option to raise up to $382,791 (before costs of the offer) ( Offer ), being up to approximately 191,395,687 Options.
Each Option will be exercisable at $0.05 ( Exercise Price ), on or before the expiry date being three (3) years from the date of issue.
The Company will not be extending this offer to overseas shareholders, other than New Zealand resident shareholders. It is deemed unreasonable given the Company size and holder spread to attempt to delay the Rights Issue in the case of overseas holders.
The Record Date is the date the Company determines your shareholding in the Company. For the purposes of the Rights Issue, the Record Date will be 20 August 2021. Funds raised from the offer will be used for working capital.
The Rights Issue is not underwritten. Should not all Shareholders subscribe at all or in part of their allocation a shortfall will occur (“ Shortfall ”). In the event of a Shortfall, the Board reserves its rights to issue Shortfall Options at their absolute discretion. Accordingly, Shareholders are directed to not apply for Shortfall Options unless instructed to do so by the Directors.
