As a result of strong demand, TMAC has elected to increase the size of the Offering. The final prospectus qualifies the distribution of an aggregate of 22,500,000 common shares of TMAC at a price of C$6.00 per common share for aggregate gross proceeds to TMAC of C$135,000,000. The Company has also granted the Underwriters an option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), exercisable in whole or in part for a 30 day period after closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional 3,375,000 common shares of TMAC at C$6.00 per common share. If the Underwriters exercise the Over-Allotment Option in full, the gross proceeds raised under the Offering will be C$155,250,000.
The net proceeds raised under the Offering will be used to advance the Hope Bay Project to planned first production by the end of 2016, for exploration activities and general corporate purposes. Closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about July 7, 2015.
Terry MacGibbon, TMAC's Executive Chairman stated, "This significantly oversubscribed Offering, especially in what many believe to be a weak gold market, is truly a great testament to the TMAC management team, its board of directors and the Hope Bay Project. We are very appreciative of our current shareholder's continuing support and welcome our new shareholders and look forward to sharing our successes with them in the coming years."
Catharine Farrow, TMAC's Chief Executive Officer stated, "We are already six months into our two year "Path to Production" plan for the Hope Bay Project, and completion of the Offering by early July will help to significantly de-risk the Hope Bay Project and allow us to work towards planned first production by the end of 2016."
The Offering is being made through a syndicate of underwriters led by BMO Capital Markets and CIBC and includes Dundee Securities Ltd., GMP Securities L.P., National Bank Financial Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and TD Securities Inc.
