Woomera Mining Limited (ACN 073 155 781) (ASX: WML) ( Woomera , WML or the Company ) is pleased to announce that it has received binding commitments for a share placement of approximately 147 million ordinary shares ( Shares ) to institutional, professional and sophisticated investors ( Placement ) to raise approximately $2.5 million.
The Placement was over-subscribed with overwhelming support from sophisticated and professional investors plus the new directors, as a sign of confidence in the new Board and Management team at Woomera.
The issue of Shares will take place under a two-tranche structure at an issue price of $0.017 per Share representing a 10.5% discount to WML’s last closing price of $0.019 on 7 April 2021. Each two (2) Shares subscribed for under the Placement will include the grant of one (1) free attaching option exercisable at $0.035 on or before 31 May 2024.
Placement Details
Tranche 1 will raise approximately $0.85 million with Shares and attaching listed Options[1] issued in accordance with the Company’s available placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

Tranche 2 will raise approximately $1.65 million with Shares and attaching listed Options[1] to be issued subject to WML obtaining shareholder approval at an Extraordinary General Meeting ( EGM ) to be convened by the Company on or about 21 May 2021. A notice of meeting specifying the date of the EGM and other relevant details will be sent to shareholders and released to the ASX in the coming days.

The Shares issued under the Placement and Share Purchase Plan (described below) will be issued on the same terms, and will rank equally with, the existing ordinary shares of WML.
Share Purchase Plan
In addition to the Placement, the Company is offering existing shareholders with registered addresses in Australia and New Zealand and holding shares on the record date of 9 April 2021, the opportunity to subscribe for up to $30,000 or 1,764,706 fully paid ordinary shares under a Share Purchase Plan ( SPP ). The SPP will close on 24 May 2021 and will be capped at a total of $212,500. The Company reserves the right to scale back applications in the event of an oversubscription, with such scale back to be at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Participation in the SPP is optional. The issue price under the SPP will be $0.017 per Share, which is the same price as under the Placement. Each two (2) Shares subscribed for under the SPP will also include the grant of one (1) free attaching option exercisable at $0.035 on or before 31 May 2024.
