ARCTIC STAR ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF FIRST TRANCHE OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Further to Arctic Star Exploration Corp.'s news release dated Oct. 12, 2023, the company closed the first tranche of the previously announced non-brokered private placement of units of the company at a price of one cent per unit. Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of the company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional share at a price of five cents per share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The first tranche closing of the private placement consisted of 19.3 million units for aggregate gross proceeds of $193,000. All securities issued in connection with the first tranche of the private placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day in accordance with applicable securities legislation ending on April 16, 2024.
The warrants issued under the private placement contain an accelerated option clause. Pursuant to the acceleration clause, if the shares of the company close at or above 10 cents for 10 consecutive trading days on the TSX Venture Exchange, then the company may accelerate the expiry date of the warrants by issuing a news release announcing the reduced warrant term, pursuant to which the warrants will expire on the 60th calendar day after the date of such news release.
The company is further announcing that the TSX-V have provided the company with an extension to the filing deadline for the second tranche of the private placement, until Jan. 15, 2024.
