20.04.2016  |  GlobeNewswire

CENTENNIAL, Colo., April 20, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NioCorp Developments Ltd. (“NioCorp” or the “Company”) (TSX:NB) (OTCQX:NIOBF) (FSE:BR3) announces that details on its proposed early warrant exercise program are now available via an information circular and related proxy and voting forms, available on SEDAR and summarized below.

NioCorp's proposed early warrant exercise program (the “Program”) is designed to encourage the early exercise of (unlisted) share purchase warrants exercisable at $0.65 that otherwise expire on November 10, 2016 (the “November 2016 Warrants”). An estimated 11,250,256 share purchase warrants are available to be exercised during the Incentive Period under the Program.

Proceeds from the Program will be available to fund the Company’s ongoing work to complete its Elk Creek Superalloy Materials Project Feasibility Study and to fund future planned capital growth expenditures.

The Program and its commencement are subject to disinterested shareholder approval, which will be sought at a Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Tuesday May 17, 2016 at 10 a.m. Mountain, as well as final Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) approval.

Full details of the program are available here. The following is a summary of the Program highlights:

Who Can Vote on the Proposal:

  • Shareholders of the Company who do not hold the November 2016 Warrants are eligible to vote on the Program.

  • Company insiders who are shareholders and who hold the November 2016 Warrants are allowed to vote on the Program, although they cannot participate in the Program.

  • Shareholders who hold only warrants with expiry dates other than November 10, 2016 are permitted to vote on the Program.

  • All shareholders and holders of November 2016 Warrants may attend the Special Meeting, but holders of November 2016 Warrants will not be permitted to vote in person at the Special Meeting.

Who Can Participate in the Program

  • All holders of the November 2016 Warrants who are not insiders are allowed to participate in the Program.

  • If a holder of the November 2016 Warrants does not exercise during the 30 day period of the Program, the November 2016 Warrants continue to be exercisable until November 10, 2016 at $0.65.

Incentives Shares

The inducement to exercise early will be provided in the form of incentive shares of the Company (the “Incentive Shares”). The ultimate determination as to the total number of Incentive Shares (or fraction of Incentive Share per November 2016 Warrant) to be issued on the early exercise of the November 2016 Warrants during the 30 day incentive period will be made based on the Market Price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX immediately before the start of the incentive period.
