Leigh Creek Energy Limited (“Company”) provides notice to the ASX for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 3.10.5A and ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.4(b) that on 4 April 2017 it issued 43,685,181 new fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (“Shares”), of which 26,589,444 Shares were issued in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1A (“7.1A Placement”).
The issue price was A$0.135 per Share, with a total of $5.9m in funds raised before costs.
Pursuant to the provisions of ASX Listing Rule 3.10.5A, and respect of the 26,589,444 Shares issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, the Company provides the following information:
- The 7.1A Placement of the 26,589,444 Shares pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A represented 10% of the expanded ordinary shares on issue in the Company prior to placement, resulting in dilution to the existing holders of ordinary shares in the Company by that percentage. Details of the dilution to existing holders of ordinary securities caused by the issue:
| existing holders of ordinary securities caused by the issue: | |
|---|---|
| Number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue pre-Placement (W): | 265,894,441 |
| Number of Placement shares issued under Listing Rule 7.1 (X): | 17,095,737 |

| security holders (W/Z): |
-
The shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors with funds raised directed towards the construction and operation of the Pre-Commercial ISG Demonstration facility at the Leigh Creek Energy Project. The 7.1A Placement was completed instead of a rights issue or other issue in which existing shareholders could participate due to the shorter timeframe and lower costs involved in the 7.1A Placement;
-
No underwriting arrangements were entered into in respect to the 7.1A Placement;
-
A total of $215,374 in fees and costs were incurred in connection with the 7.1A Placement.
