VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 30, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Dynasty Metals & Mining Inc. (“Dynasty” or the “Company”) (TSXV:DMM) (OTCQX:DMMIF) is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2,500,000 (the “Private Placement”).
The Company issued 5,935,006 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.30 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,780,502. Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (each a “Common Share”) and one half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.45 for a period of two (2) years following the date of issuance, subject to acceleration in the event that the closing price of the Common Shares is $0.60 or higher over a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days. The securities issued pursuant to this tranche of the Private Placement are subject to a four month hold period that expires on October 31, 2017.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.
In connection with the first tranche of the Private Placement, the Company paid cash finders’ fees totaling $46,900 to Luis Zapata and Canaccord Genuity Corp.
The Company expects to complete the second tranche of the Private Placement on or before July 17, 2017.
Mr. Keith Piggott, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, acquired 1,151,666 Units pursuant to the first tranche of the Private Placement.
Mr. Leonard Clough (a director of the Company), through his privately owned company, acquired 100,000 Units pursuant to the first tranche of the Private Placement.
The transaction constituted a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) as insiders of the Company subscribed for securities of the Company for an aggregate of $375,500. The Company is relying on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the participation in the Private Placement by insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the first tranche of the Private Placement, as the details of the participation by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the first tranche of the Private Placement.
The Private Placement has been conditionally approved by the TSX Venture Exchange but remains subject to final exchange approval.
