South Star Mining Announces Secondary Non-Brokered Private Placement

05.02.2021  |  The Newswire
Toronto, February 05, 2021 - South Star Mining Corp. ('South Star' or 'the Company') (TSXV:STS) (OTC:STSBF) today announces that it intends to complete a secondary non-brokered private placement of Units (the "Private Placement") to raise an additional C$1,000,000.

The Private Placement will consist of 9,523,810 Units priced at C$0.105 per unit (the "Units"). Each Unit will consist of one (1) common share and one (1) common share purchase warrant (the "Warrants"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.15 per common share for a period of 3 years from the date of issue. The securities will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of closing and approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. The Private Placement will be available to existing shareholders of the Company and all Warrants issued under the Private Placement will be subject to an acceleration clause. See below for further details.

Net proceeds from the Placement will be used for completion of the final design for the Phase 1 construction documents, advanced materials testing, commercial agreements, project finance and general working capital requirements for the Company.

South Star CEO Richard Pearce commented: "We have received an overwhelming response from the market, and the fundamental values of the Project are finally starting to shine. We are excited to be added soon to a short list of graphite producers and getting into cashflow. Taking the Santa Cruz Project from concept to paper to production gives our team a great deal of satisfaction. We believe the phased approach to production we are taking, with initial Phase 1 Pilot Plant (5,000 tpy of concentrate) and shortly thereafter Phase 2 Production (25,000 - 30,000 tpy of concentrate), is a smart way to allocate capital, control risks and create shareholder value. We can always scale up to meet growing market demand as needed once we are in production and have cashflow."

Acceleration Clause & Existing Shareholder Exemption and Investment Dealer Exemption

If over a period of 10 consecutive trading days between the date that is four (4) months following the closing of the private placement and the expiry of the Warrants the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX Venture Exchange (or such other stock exchange where the majority of the trading volume occurs) exceeds $0.40 on each of those 10 consecutive days, the Company may, within 30 days of such an occurrence, give written notice to the holders of the Warrants that the Warrants will expire at 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the 30th day following the giving of notice unless exercised by the holders prior to such date. Upon receipt of such notice, the holders of the Warrants will have 30 days to exercise their Warrants. Any Warrants which remain unexercised at 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the 30th day following the giving of such notice will expire at that time.

The Placement will be made available to existing shareholders of the Company who, as of the close of business on February 04, 2021, held common shares of the Company (and who continue to hold such common shares as of the closing date), pursuant to the prospectus exemption set out in BC Instrument 45-534 - Exemption From Prospectus Requirement for Certain Trades to Existing Security Holders and in similar instruments in other jurisdictions in Canada (the "Existing Shareholder Exemption"). The Existing Shareholder Exemption limits a shareholder to a maximum investment of CAD$15,000 in a 12-month period unless the shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the investment and, if the shareholder is resident in a jurisdiction of Canada, that advice has been obtained from a person that is registered as an investment dealer in the jurisdiction. If the Company receives subscriptions from investors relying on the Existing Shareholder Exemption exceeding the maximum Placement, the Company may adjust the subscriptions received on a pro-rata basis.

The Company has also made the Placement available to certain subscribers pursuant to BC Instrument 45-536 - Exemption From Prospectus Requirement for Certain Distributions Through an Investment Dealer (the "Investment Dealer Exemption"). In accordance with the requirements of the Investment Dealer Exemption, the Company confirms that there is no material fact or material change about the Company that has not been generally disclosed.

In connection with the private placement, the Company proposes to issue Units to directors, officers and insiders of the Company. As a result, the private placement constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The Company has determined that exemptions from the various requirements of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and MI 61-101 are available for the issuance of the Units to related parties. The Company is relying on Section 5.5(c) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the formal valuation requirement on the basis that the transaction is a distribution of securities for cash, and on Section 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the minority shareholder approval requirement, as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves related parties, will not be more than $2,500,000.
