(CSE:HSLV) (the “Company” or “Highlander Silver”) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated October 3, 2023, it has completed a $3 million offering (the “Offering”) of 30,000,000 units (the “Units”) of the Company. Each Unit is comprised of one common share (a “Share”) and one warrant exercisable for one additional Share at a price of $0.15 per Share for a period of 3 years from the date of issuance.
The Company plans to use the net proceeds for permitting and subsequent drilling at the La Estrella project, ongoing assessment of acquisition opportunities and for general corporate purposes.
Two insiders of the Company subscribed for 15,500,000 Units under the Offering for a total value of $1,550,000. Each of the insiders’ participation 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 formal valuation requirements contained in section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 and the minority shareholder approval requirement contained in section 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101, as the Company is not listed on specified markets and the fair market value of the securities to be distributed to the related parties does not exceed $2,500,000. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transactions at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering, as the details of the participation by the related parties were not settled until shortly prior to closing of the Offering.
The securities issued in the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months from the date of issuance.
