The company believes this funding is the best option available to secure the next phases of its proposed programs in Madagascar and particualrly the gold project at Vatovorona. The company has proposed a work plan and budget for the next 18 months that would see 12,000 metres of drilling, the extension of the existing pit or the commencement of a further pit, the acquisition of some trial processing plant and the commencement of processing to produce concentrate for refining offshore from Madagascar.
The La Jolla agreement has the advantage of reducing the dilution of the stock as against an immediate cash advance by seeking to benefit from the possible rise in the share price over the program and shares only issuing to La Jolla at the time it provides the monthly advance. The requirements of the program do not demand the full amount of the advance be available at the outset but funds be available over the next 18 months as expenditure is incurred.
The company remains committed to completing Stage 2 at Vatovorona and this financing choice, together with funds to be raised in a proposed Share Purchase Plan will permit the company and its executives to stay focused and drive the project forward.
The offer to all shareholders to subscribe for shares in the Share Purchase Plan will be included along with the Notice of General Meeting documentation to approve the La Jolla agreement.
The result of La Jolla converting all its shares from the first two convertible notes at an issue price of 0.59 cents (85% of 0.7 cents) would be as follows:
| Price | Number of shares to be issued to La Jolla |
Total number of shares of the company after the issue to La Jolla |
Percentage held by La Jolla if it retained all shares |
|---|---|---|---|
| (0.59 cents or 85% of 0.7 cents) Payment of US$3m, or A$2, 857,143 at exchange rate of A$1.05 for 1 US$ ) |
484,261,525 | 3,004,619,628 | 16.12% |
The result of La Jolla converting all its shares from the first two convertible notes at an issue price of 0.59 cents (85% of 0.7cents) for one third of the advance (being US$1 million), and 0.85 cents (85% of 1 cent) for another third of the advance, and 1.02 cents (85% of 1.2 cents) for the final third of the advance would be as follows:
| Price | Number of shares to be issued to La Jolla |
Total number of shares of the company after the issue to La Jolla |
Percentage held by La Jolla if it retained all shares |
|---|---|---|---|
| (0.59cents or 85% of 0.7 cents) (US$1m or A$ 952,381 at 1.05 exchange rate) |
161,420,508 | 2,681,778,611 | 6.02% |
| (0.85 cents or 85% of 1 cent) (US$1m or A$ 952,381 at 1.05 exchange rate) |
112,044,823 | 2,793,823,434 | 9.79% |
| (1.02 cents or 85% of 1.2 cents) (US$1m or A$ 952,381 at 1.05 exchange rate) |
