BRAZIL RESOURCES INC. TO RAISE UP TO $5,000,000
BY WAY OF A NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Vancouver, British Columbia - December 16, 2013 - Brazil Resources Inc.
(the 'Company' or 'Brazil Resources') (TSX-V: BRI; OTCQX: BRIZF) is pleased
to announce that it intends to carry out a non-brokered private placement
(the 'Private Placement') of up to 9,090,910 units of the Company (each, a
'Unit') at $0.55 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000.
The subscription price represents a 10% premium over the last closing price
of Brazil Resources' common shares.
The Company expects that significant shareholders and other insiders will
comprise the majority of the subscribers under the proposed Private
Placement.
Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company and one
common share purchase warrant (the 'Warrants'). Closing of the Private
Placement is expected to occur within December and is subject to receipt of
all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange
(the 'TSXV') and definitive subscriptions.
Amir Adnani, Chairman, stated: 'We are pleased with the strong interest in
this Private Placement from insiders and existing shareholders, including
the Company's largest shareholder, as it shows support for our long-term
strategy. The proposed Private Placement will enable the Company to further
execute its plan to grow through acquisitions and to be a consolidator in
these depressed resource markets.'
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to
advance the Company's São Jorge and Cachoeira projects and to incur
expenditures for strategic initiatives, including the acquisition and
exploration of additional mining properties, and for working capital and
general corporate purposes.
The Company may pay a finder's fee to one or more arm's length parties on a
portion of the Private Placement in accordance with the policies of the
TSXV. All Units, common shares and Warrants issued under the Private
Placement will be subject to a four-month hold period from the closing
date, in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSXV and applicable
Canadian securities laws and such other restriction as may apply under
foreign securities laws. Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to
acquire one common share at an exercise price of $0.75 up to 5 years after
the closing of the Private Placement, subject to the terms thereof.
The Units, common shares and Warrants have not been, and will not be,
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
'U.S. Securities Act'), or any U.S. state securities laws and may not be
offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an available
exemption from the registration requirement of the U.S. Securities Act and
applicable U.S. state securities laws. This press release shall notconstitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor
shall there be any sale of the Units, common shares or Warrants, in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
