NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWS WIRES
Tribeca Resources Corporation (TSXV: TRBC) (OTCQB: TRRCF) (“Tribeca Resources”, the “Company”) is pleased to announce its intention to complete a non-brokered private placement pursuant to which it will issue up to 9,090,909 units ("Units") at a price of C$0.33 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$3,000,000 (the “Private Placement”).
Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.55 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance of the Warrant.
The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to advance the Company's La Higuera Project, for wider business development activities and general corporate purposes, as the Board of Directors of the Company may approve and direct.
The Company has received lead orders from a group of sophisticated European investors, including one existing shareholder and two new investors, totalling $2,150,000.
Tribeca Resources CEO, Dr Paul Gow commented:
“This additional capital, underpinned by lead orders from one existing and two new cornerstone investors, means we are financed, not only to test the open extensions at the Gaby discovery, but potentially also to include further drill-ready targets at La Higuera in our planned Phase 2 drill programme. The quality of investors we have been able to attract are, we believe, a result of the exciting exploration potential at our La Higuera copper-gold project.”
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company will pay a finder's fee comprised of 6% cash and 6% warrants to eligible finders in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”). Closing of the Private Placement is expected to occur on or about July, 14 2023 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of all regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSXV.
All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement, including the Common Shares issued in consideration for services rendered in connection with introducing the Company to investors, are subject to a four month hold period.
