The proceeds of the sale of the FT Shares will be used to incur eligible Canadian Exploration Expenses, within the meaning of such term in the ITA. The proceeds of the sale of the Non-FT Units will be used to advance the Company’s projects and for working capital purposes.
Pursuant to the Offering, the Company may pay finder’s fees of up to 7% of the gross amount raised from investors introduced by such finders, and may issue compensation options to such finders of up to 7% of the number of Non-FT Units and/or FT Shares sold to investors introduced by such finders. Each compensation option will entitle the holder to acquire one Non-FT Unit of Honey Badger at a price of CAD $0.10 per unit for a period of 36 months from the Closing Date.
Any securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a restricted period of four months and one day from the date of issuance. The Offering is subject to the receipt of all required regulatory and TSX Venture Exchange approvals.
