PetroFrontier Corp. Announces Closing of Private Placement

CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / July 8, 2021 / PetroFrontier Corp. ("PetroFrontier" or the "Company") (TSXV:PFC) is pleased to announce the following:

Private Placement

PetroFrontier has completed a non-brokered private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $373,469 (the "Private Placement") whereby the Company issued an aggregate of 4,979,583 common shares ("Common Shares") from its treasury at a price of $0.075 per Common Share. Proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to fund development and provide additional working capital to the Company.

Pursuant to applicable securities laws, the Common Shares are subject to a hold period of four months plus one day following the date of their issuance. While conditional approval has been obtained from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), the Private Placement remains subject to final approval of the TSXV.

Mr. Paul Cheung, a former director of the Company, acquired beneficial ownership of 3,319,888 of the Common Shares such that he now holds a total of 61,837,615 Common Shares which represents 27.64% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares after giving effect to the Private Placement.

Related Party Participation in the Private Placement

An insider subscribed for 3,319,888 of the Common Shares issued pursuant to the Offering for a total of 66.67%. As an insider of PetroFrontier participated in the Offering, it is deemed to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").

Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company after reasonable inquiry, a related party, has knowledge of any material information concerning the Company or its securities that has not been generally disclosed.

The Offering is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsections 5.5(c) and 5.7(1)(b)) as it was a distribution of securities for cash and neither the fair market value of the Common Shares distributed to, nor the consideration received from, interested parties exceeded $2,500,000.

The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering because the details of the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Offering and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for business reasons.
