Potash Ridge Receives Commitment from NHP Asset Management AG to Invest $1,000,000

05.04.2016  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Apr 5, 2016) - Potash Ridge Corp. ("Potash Ridge") (TSX:PRK)(OTCQX:POTRF), a near term producer of premium fertilizer in North America, is pleased to announce that it has reached agreement with NHP Asset Management AG of Zurich Switzerland ("NHP"), where NHP and its associates have committed to an investment of $1,000,000 into Potash Ridge by way of private placement (the "Private Placement").

NHP is a privately owned independent Swiss family office focusing on personalized advisory and asset management services. NHP follows a value investing philosophy that includes investments in small to mid-cap companies with promising growth potential. NHP has decades of expertise in the area of finance and a history of introducing large institutions, funds and banks throughout Europe into projects with high merit.

Under the terms of the private placement commitment, Potash Ridge will issue and NHP will acquire 6.67 million Units at a price of $0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of Potash Ridge (a "Common Share") and one half Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.30 per Common Share for a period of three years from the date of closing of the Private Placement (the "Closing"). Potash Ridge will have the right to require NHP to exercise the Warrants at any time in the event that the Common Shares trade above $0.70 for 21 consecutive trading days. A maximum number of 10 million Common Shares will be issued to NHP and its associates under the Private Placement that will comprise 6.67 million Common Shares, and Warrants that could be converted into an additional 3.33 million Common Shares. A Finder's fee will be paid on the private placement.

Closing is expected to occur on or around April 15, 2016, subject to receipt of final applicable regulatory approvals including approval of the TSX. All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement will be subject to a restricted period that expires four months plus one day following the date of issuance.

Concurrent with the Closing, the Potash Ridge has agreed to engage NHP to provide European capital markets and investor relations advisory services. Under the terms of the advisory agreement NHP could receive up to an additional 1,000,000 Warrants at the same exercise price and term as outlined above.

Guy Bentinck, Potash Ridge's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We look forward to working closely with our new partners from Europe and believe this relationship will prove to be a significant step in moving our sulphate of potash assets to full commercialization."

Potash Ridge may issue additional Units under the same terms outlined above if it deems fit.

The proceeds from the private placement will be used to advance the Company's wholly-owned Valleyfield Fertilizer and Blawn Mountain projects and for general corporate purposes.
