NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Allied Copper Corp. (TSX-V: CPR, OTCQB: CPRRF)
(“Allied” or the “Company”), in
concert with its lithium-focused division, Volt Lithium Corp
(“Volt”), is pleased to announce the closing of
its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing,
raising gross proceeds of $4,000,000 through the issuance of
20,000,000 units (each, a “Unit”) at $0.20 per
Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each,
a “Share”) and one half of one common share
purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a
“Warrant”). A total of 10,000,000 Warrants were
issued, with each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one
additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of
$0.30 for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the closing
date, February 24, 2023.
“We are extremely pleased with the outcome of
this financing, the strong demand which resulted in the Company
successfully raising twice the proceeds originally targeted, with
the additional funds providing a critical foundation to
significantly improve our understanding of our lithium project at
Rainbow Lake at an earlier stage than we otherwise would have,”
said Alex Wylie, President and Director of Allied. “This bolstered
financial position will ultimately improve our capabilities and
ability to execute prior to entering commercial production, which
is anticipated by mid-2024. We continue to progress on meeting or
exceeding milestones, and this financing will allow us to
accelerate developments supporting our goal of becoming a leading
lithium from brine producer.”
This private placement remains subject to the
final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued
under the placement are subject to a statutory hold period that
expires on June 25, 2023.
In connection with the closing of the private
placement, the Company paid finder's totalling $100,202, in cash
and the issuance of 501,008 finder’s warrants (each a
'Finder's Warrant') to the following finders:
Acumen Capital Partners, Intrynsyc Capital Corp., Raymond James
Ltd. and Research Capital Corporation. Each Finder’s Warrant is
exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price
of $0.30 per Common Share, for a period of 24 months following the
closing of the private placement.
Officers and directors of the Company including
Alex Wylie, Kyle Hookey, Marty Scase, Warner Uhl, and Morgan
Tiernan participated in the private placement and acquired
1,647,755 units for $329,551. The participation of these insiders
in the private placement constitutes a Related Party Transaction
within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of
Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").
The board of directors of the Company, with Messrs. Wylie, Hookey,
Scase and Uhl abstaining, determined that the transaction is exempt
from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval
requirements contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI
61-101 for the related party transaction, as neither the fair
market value of securities issued to the insiders nor the
consideration paid by the insiders exceeded 25 percent of the
Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a
material change report in respect of the transaction 21 days in
advance of the closing of the private placement because insider
participation had not been confirmed. The shorter period was
necessary in order to permit the Company to close the private
placement in a timeframe consistent with usual market practice for
transactions of this nature.
Gross proceeds raised from the sale of Units
will be used to advance the Company’s pilot programs and for other
general corporate matters, including:
-
Reservoir Analysis: undertaking more detailed
reservoir analysis that involves testing intervals with production
testing equipment, an activity that previously was anticipated
post-pilot, allowing lithium concentrations to be tested from the
top of the reservoir to the basement, providing data to support a
more comprehensive resource report;
-
Attraction & Retention of
Key Staff: with a robust financial position, the
Company has a better platform to attract high quality field staff
who will be essential in providing improved chemical analysis and
operational excellence;
- Field
Design – by having greater resources to allocate to field
engineering and design work, Volt anticipates being better
positioned moving into commercial production;
-
Upgrading Capabilities – to support the goal of
reaching commercial production and realizing first sales, the
Company will seek to fast-track its capability to upgrade to
battery grade lithium.
None of the securities sold in connection with
the Offering will be registered under the United States Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and no such securities may be offered or
sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable
exemption from the registration requirements. This news release
shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an
offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful.
