VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jul 9, 2014) - AXMIN Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AXM) ("AXMIN" or the "Company") announces that AXMIN's major shareholder, Dickson Resources Limited ("Dickson"), has agreed to provide the Company with a revolving line of credit (the "Loan") in the principal amount of Cdn$250,000 ("Credit Limit"). Any request for an advance may be made from time to time and in such amounts as the Company may choose; provided any requested advance will not, when added to the outstanding principal balance of all previous advances, exceed the Credit Limit. All sums advanced bear interest from the date each advance is made until paid in full at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, simple interest. All principal and interest is repayable within 24 months of the date of the first advance (the "Maturity Date"). The Company may make early repayment of the Loan at any time prior to the Maturity Date without any prepayment penalty.
In the event of a Change of Control, the sums advanced and any accrued interest is repayable on the effective date of the Change of Control whereby a "Change of Control" is defined as: i) any person or group of persons are acting jointly or in concert acquiring, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or a series of transactions, beneficial ownership or control or direction over thirty percent (30%) or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; or ii) any merger, amalgamation, arrangement or other reorganization by the Company with another person or corporation that is not, prior to the merger, amalgamation, arrangement or reorganization, an affiliate of the Company and in which voting securities of the Company possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the Company's outstanding securities are transferred to a person or persons different from the persons holding those securities immediately prior to such transaction and the composition of the board of directors (the "Board") following such transaction is such that the directors of the Company prior to the transaction constitute less than fifty percent (50%) of the Board's membership following the transaction.
The proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
AXMIN's Chairman and CEO, Lucy Yan, comments: "On behalf of the board of directors and the management, I would like to thank Dickson for its continuous support of the Company."
Dickson currently holds 45,000,000 common shares of AXMIN ("Common Shares"), representing approximately 41.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the date hereof on a non-diluted basis and is a "related party" of AXMIN within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). As such, the Loan constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of MI 61-101. The Company is relying on an exemption from the minority approval requirement that applies to related party transactions, which exemption is available to the Company as (i) the Loan comprises a loan or credit facility obtained on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Company than if the loan or credit facility were obtained from a person dealing at arm's length with the Company; (ii) the Loan is not convertible into equity or voting securities of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company; and (iii) the Loan is not repayable as to principal or interest in equity or voting securities of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company.
The Loan agreement has been reviewed by the Board and was approved by all independent directors of the Board. Lucy Yan was the Chairman of the board of directors of Dickson until December 24, 2013 and accordingly abstained from voting with respect to the Loan. Ms. Yan does not currently hold any securities of the Company and it is not anticipated that the Loan will result in any securities of the Company being owned by Ms. Yan. The directors eligible to vote on the approval of the Loan have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to gain access to the funds pursuant to the Loan and have determined that it is reasonable for the Loan to close in fewer than 21 days from the announcement of the Loan.
