LONGUEUIL, Quebec, Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenheart Gold Inc. (TSXV: GHRT) (the “Company” or “Greenheart Gold”) is pleased to announce that further to the Company’s news releases dated September 25, 2024 and September 26, 2024, the Company has closed on its previously announced brokered private placement of 72,088,597 common shares of the Company (each, a “Common Share”) at a price of C$0.50 per Common Share (the “Offering Price”) for gross proceeds of $36,044,298.50 (the “Private Placement”). The Private Placement was underwritten by Canaccord Genuity and Paradigm Capital Inc., as co-lead underwriters and joint bookrunners, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”).
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to acquire and explore mineral properties in Guyana and Suriname, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company paid the Underwriters a cash commission equal to 5% of the gross proceeds from the Private Placement, other than with respect to certain sales to purchasers on a president’s list.
All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a statutory four month hold period expiring February 18, 2025. The securities described herein have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold absent registration or compliance with an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws. 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, including any of the securities in the United States of America.
Certain insiders of the Company (collectively, the “Participating Insiders”) purchased an aggregate of 3,000,000 Common Shares at the Offering Price. The participation in the Private Placement by the Participating Insiders constitutes a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in subsections 5.5(b) and subsection 5.5(a) of MI 61-101, as the Common Shares are listed only on the TSX Venture Exchange and neither the fair market value of the Common Shares to be issued to the Participating Insiders nor the consideration to be paid by the Participating Insiders pursuant to the Private Placement is expected to exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.
