No cash compensation will be issued.
The sale of common shares pursuant to the Common Share Offering and units pursuant to the Unit Offering, and the underlying Unit Shares and Warrant Shares issuable thereby, may result in the issuance of more than 100% of the current number of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. The Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) has approved the Company’s reliance on an exemption from the shareholder approval requirements in Section 4.6(2) of CSE Policy 4 – Corporate Governance, Security Holder Approvals and Miscellaneous Provisions on the basis that Steadright requires immediately funds to be utilized for working capital and to meet upcoming mining exploration commitments. Accordingly, the Company will not hold a vote of its shareholders to approve the sale of securities pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement. Steadright has obtained CSE price protection for the securities issued under the Private Placement. The CSE has allowed insiders participation without obtaining security holder approval for up to 10% of the Private Placements. The independent directors of the Company have determined that completion of the Private Placement is in the best interests of the Company, and that it is not feasible to obtain securityholder approval in a timely manner given the Company's circumstances.
