Kestrel Gold Inc. Announces Closing of Private Placement and Grant of Options
(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 04/05/17 -- Mr. Kevin Nephin, President and CEO of Kestrel Gold Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Kestrel") (TSX VENTURE: KGC) is pleased to announce that the Corporation has closed its non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of 16,666,666 units of the Corporation (the "Units") at a price of $0.03 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $500,000. Each unit consists of one common share ("Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"), each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share of the Corporation (the "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.05 per Warrant Share, at any time until April 3, 2020. The Common Shares and Warrants are subject to a statutory four month hold period, which expires August 5, 2017. Finder's fees were paid in cash in the amount of 10% of the gross proceeds in relation to some of the Units sold in the Private Placement.
In that three directors of the Corporation participated in the private placement, the private placement is a "related party transaction" within the meaning of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 which has adopted Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"), which in turn requires the Corporation to obtain "minority approval" of the Corporation's shareholders of the related party transaction unless there is an exemption from such requirement. The Corporation is relying on the exemption in Section 5.7(b) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the securities distributed to related parties was less than $2,500,000.
The proceeds of the private placement will be used to carry out an exploration program on the King Solomon Dome project located in the Yukon, to pay for the next six months operating costs, for legal fees and to repay loans, in the amount of $145,000 made by two of the Corporation's directors to sustain the Corporation.
The Corporation also announces that it has granted to directors and officers, and a consultant to the Corporation, options to purchase in the aggregate 4,400,000 Common Shares at an exercise price of $0.05 per share, which options will expire on April 4, 2022.
