Toronto, December 7, 2020 - Blue Thunder Mining Inc. (TSXV: BLUE) ("BLUE" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has increased its recently announced private placement offering of up to $1 million (See press release dated November 20, 2020), and expects to raise C$2.1 million.
This private placement will consist of a combination of:
- units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of C$0.10 per Unit;
- flow-through common shares of the Company (the "Flow-Through Shares") at a price of C$0.11 per Flow Through Share.
Each Unit shall consist of one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable by the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.15 for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.
Use of Proceeds
The gross proceeds received from the sale of the Flow-Through Shares will be used to incur Canadian exploration expenses ("CEE") as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") on the Company's Muus, Muus East, Nisk, Fancamp and Embry properties and renounced to subscribers in the Offering effective December 31, 2020. Such CEE will also qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Tax Act, and (i) for inclusion in the "exploration base relating to certain Québec exploration expenses" within the meaning contained in section 726.4.10 of the Taxation Act (Québec); and (ii) for inclusion in the "exploration base relating to certain Québec surface mining exploration expenses or oil and gas exploration expenses" within the meaning contained in section 726.4.17.2 of the Taxation Act (Québec). The net proceeds from the sale of the Units will be for the exploration of the Company's properties and for general working capital purposes.
Finders Fee Agreements
The Company has entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") with Red Cloud Securities Inc. (the "Finder") whereby the Company has agreed to pay a fee to the Finder in respect to those purchasers under the Offering introduced to the Company by the Finder. The Finder shall be paid a cash payment equal to 7% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from purchasers under the Offering who were introduced to the Company by the Finder, with such fee representing a maximum of $147,000 paid by the Company to the Finder (the "Cash Finder's Fee"). In addition, the Company shall issue common share purchase warrants to the Finder in an amount equal to 7% of the common shares issued by the Company to purchasers under the Offering who were introduced to the Company by the Finder, with each such warrant entitling the Finder to acquire one common share for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering at a price of $0.11 per common share (the "Finder's Warrants").
The entering into the Agreement is considered to be a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101, but is exempted from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation and to obtain minority approval, as the consideration payable to the Finder under the Agreement does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The independent directors of the Company have approved the Agreement. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101.
Closing of the Offering
All shares issued under the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period and will not be offered or registered in the United States. Closing of the Offering is anticipated to occur on or about December 10, 2020 and is subject to customary closing conditions including, but not limited to; the negotiation and execution of subscription agreements and receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any applicable state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or "U.S. persons," as such term is defined in Regulation S promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act, absent registration or an exemption from such registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
