VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 27, 2024 / Electric Royalties Ltd. (TSXV:ELEC)(OTCQB:ELECF) ("Electric Royalties" or the "Company") announces that it has filed an amended and restated offering document dated December 27, 2024 (the "A&R Offering Document") in connection with its previously announced brokered "best-efforts" private placement of up to 22,222,223 units of the Company (the "Units") for gross proceeds of up to approximately $4 million (the "Offering") led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Red Cloud Securities Inc.
Each Unit is priced at C$0.18 and will be comprised of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.25 per Warrant Share for a period of 2 years following the closing of the Offering.
The terms of the Offering have been amended to provide that the Offering is subject to, and will not proceed without, the receipt by the Company of a minimum of $1,500,000 in gross proceeds (the "Minimum Offering Proceeds") from the Offering. The imposition of such Minimum Offering Proceeds requirement is to ensure that the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (defined below) will be available for the Offering. The other terms of the Offering remain substantially unchanged.
Subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and in accordance with National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), the Units will be offered for sale to purchasers resident in Canada (other than Québec residents) and/or other qualifying jurisdictions pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106 (the "Listed Issuer Financing Exemption"). Because the Offering is being completed pursuant to the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption, the securities issued to Canadian resident subscribers in the Offering will not be subject to a hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws.
The Offering is now expected to close on or about January 9, 2025, or such other date as the Company and the Agents may agree and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals including the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.
