General Moly Announces AMER in Default of Tranche 3 Private Placement

31.07.2019  |  Accesswire

LAKEWOOD, July 31, 2019 - General Moly Inc. (the € Company €) (NYSE American and TSX: GMO) announced that the AMER International Group is in default of the parties €™ amended Investment Securities Purchase Agreement ( € Agreement €) by failing to provide funding for a Tranche 3 private placement yesterday.

The obligation of the Company €™s largest shareholder, AMER International Group ( € AMER €) to invest $10 million for 20 million common shares priced at $0.50 per share ( € Tranche 3 €) was triggered by the Company €™s receipt of the water permits from the Nevada State Engineer, as set forth in the Agreement. The Company provided formal notice to AMER, which had two business days until the close of business on Tuesday, July 30, 2019 to fund and close Tranche 3.

With AMER €™s default with respect to its obligation to fund Tranche 3, the Company will have inadequate cash to continue operations and will have to evaluate its options going forward, including pursuing asset sales, short-term financing options and, if unsuccessful in obtaining sufficient financing, the possibility of seeking bankruptcy protection, as stated in the Company €™s July 29, 2019 news release.

As described in the July 29, 2019 news release, AMER previously provided the Company with a letter indicating that AMER is considering terminating the Agreement based on alleged uncured material adverse effects and alleged breaches of the Agreement by the Company (which include concerns related to US/China relations, concerns regarding the delay in obtaining environmental permits and solvency concerns). The Company believes such assertions to be inaccurate and wholly without merit.

As a result of AMER €™s failure to fund $10 million per the Agreement, General Moly is seeking immediate sources of liquidity and is evaluating potential strategic alternatives, working with the Company €™s financial advisors XMS Capital Partners, Headwall Partners, and Odinbrook Global Advisors ( € Advisors €). The Company is also working concurrently with its legal advisors on the appropriate legal recourse and safeguarding the Company €™s legal rights under the Agreement.

The range of strategic alternatives may include sourcing of potential incremental capital financing, sale of interest(s) in the assets of the Company or the Company, and restructuring of the convertible debt issued in a December 2014 private placement, which matures in December 2019.

In addition, AMER €™s director nominee Tong Zhang resigned from the Company €™s Board of Directors for personal reasons. AMER retains the right to nominate Mr. Zhang €™s replacement.

Since 2015, AMER has made two private placements purchasing $10 million in the Company €™s common stock. AMER is a non-ferrous metals and manufacturing conglomerate based in Shenzhen, China. AMER is ranked 119 in the Fortune Global 500 list of international companies based on annual revenues.
