Dolly Varden Announces Private Placement of Common Shares

06.07.2016  |  FSCwire

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Dolly Varden Silver Corp. (TSX.V: DV | U.S.: DOLLF) (the “Company” or “Dolly Varden”) is pleased to announce that it intends to undertake a private placement financing (the “Offering”) to raise gross proceeds of up to $6 million from the sale of up to: (a) 7,258,064 common shares in the capital of the Company (“Common Share”) at a price of $0.62 per share; and (b) up to 2,142,857 Common Shares that qualify as “flow-through shares” as defined in Canada’s Income Tax Act (“Flow-Through Share”), at a price of $0.70 per Flow-Through Share.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to repay the $2,500,000 loan from Sprott and K2 (see Company news releases dated June 13, 2016 and July 4, 2016), accomplishing the goal of eliminating all Company debt.  The majority of the remaining proceeds are planned to be used for exploration of the Dolly Varden silver property in northwestern BC, where a number of prospective mineral exploration and resource expansion targets were identified during the 2015 field season.  Thereafter, proceeds will be used for working capital purposes.  

“Upon completing the Offering Dolly Varden’s year-long corporate transformation will be complete, yielding a debt free company with a lean share structure, cash in the bank, and low overhead costs.  Cleaning up the corporate entity allows focus to shift to the highly prospective Dolly Varden silver project, where both Eskay- and Brucejack-like styles of mineralization are known to occur.  Our 2015 maiden NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate defined robust high-grade mineralization adjacent to historic deposits.  This mineral resource estimate has expansion potential but, more importantly, serves as a template for discovery of other similar deposits on the under-explored remainder of the large project where the same lithologies, structure, alteration and indicator elements have been defined in previous field programs and have yielded encouraging early results.  With our debt repaid and capital on hand, Dolly Varden will be well positioned in this new silver commodity market to grow the potential of the project through methodical and well targeted field programs,” said Rosie Moore, Director and Interim President and CEO of Dolly Varden.  “Hecla, a shareholder, announced its intention to make a takeover bid for Dolly Varden in a news release on June 27, 2016.  The Company is unaware of any formal Hecla offer to Dolly Varden’s shareholders but is prepared to evaluate an offer, if one is put forward.  Completion of this financing gives us the ability to move forward as a going concern without the burden of debt and will allow us to focus on the evaluation of our project, regardless,” she added.

In connection with the Offering, the Company has agreed to pay a finder’s fee in respect of those purchasers introduced to the Company by Eventus Capital Corp. (the “Finder”).  For the share purchased by these investors, the Finder will receive: (a) Common Shares with a value equal to 6% of the gross proceeds raised from Common Shares and Flow-Through Shares, based on a price per Common Share of $0.62; and (b) Common Share purchase warrants equal to 6% of number of Common Shares and Flow-Through Shares.  Each warrant will entitle the Finder to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.70 per Common Share for a period of 24 months from the date of the closing of the Offering. 

The issuance of the Common Shares, Flow-Through Shares, and the payment of the Finder’s fee are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, receipt of any other required regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.  Closing of the Offering is anticipated to occur on or about July 15, 2016.  Securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period.  

Pursuant to the ancillary rights agreement between Hecla Canada Ltd (“Hecla”) and the Company dated September 4, 2012 (the “ARA”), the Company will provide notice to Hecla of the Offering.  Hecla will be entitled to acquire Common Shares, Flow-Through Shares and warrants to maintain its pro rata equity interest in the Company.  If Hecla exercises its rights under the ARA, any securities acquired by Hecla will be in addition to those detailed above.
