First Mining Gold Corp. Files Early Warning Report in Respect of Treasury Metals Inc.

16.07.2021  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, July 15, 2021 - First Mining Gold Corp. ("First Mining" or the "Company") (TSX: FF) (OTCQX: FFMGF) (FRANKFURT: FMG) announces that it has filed an early warning report with respect to Treasury Metals Inc. (the "Treasury Metals") in connection with First' Mining's ownership of common shares of Treasury Metals ("TML Shares") and common share purchase warrants of Treasury Metals ("TML Warrants").

Pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated June 3, 2020 among Treasury Metals and First Mining, Treasury Metals acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Tamaka Gold Corporation (the "Transaction"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Mining at the time and the indirect owner of the Goldlund Gold Project (the "Goldlund Project"), from First Mining in exchange for, among other things, 130,000,000 TML Shares and 35,000,000 TML Warrants. As a result of a 3:1 share consolidation which was undertaken by Treasury Metals and which became effective on August 11, 2020 (the "Consolidation"), the number of TML Shares held by First Mining immediately after the Consolidation was reduced to 43,333,332 TML Shares, and the number of TML Warrants held by First Mining was reduced to 11,666,666 TML Warrants. For more details about the Consolidation, please refer to the news releases of Treasury Metals dated August 5, 2020 and August 12, 2020.

In connection with the Transaction, First Mining agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to distribute to First Mining's shareholders, within twelve months of closing the Transaction, a portion of the TML Shares, and all of the TML Warrants, received by First Mining under the Transaction. On July 15, 2021, First Mining distributed 23,333,333 TML Shares and 11,666,666 TML Warrants to First Mining shareholders of record as of July 14, 2021, on a pro rata basis, by way of a reduction in the capital of the common shares of First Mining (the "Distribution"). Each TML Warrant is exercisable, on a cashless basis only, for one TML Share at an exercise price of $1.50 per TML Share, and each TML Warrant has an expiry date of August 7, 2023.

The Distribution was made pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and did not take place through the facilities of any stock exchange or any other marketplace. As noted above, the record date of the Distribution was July 14, 2021, and the effective date of the Distribution was July 15, 2021.

Prior to the Distribution, First Mining held 43,333,332 TML Shares (on a post-Consolidation basis), representing approximately 33.29% of the outstanding TML Shares on a non-diluted basis and 11,666,666 TML Warrants (on a post-Consolidation basis). Assuming the full exercise of the TML Warrants held by First Mining, an aggregate of 54,999,998 TML Shares would have been owned by First Mining, which would have represented approximately 42.25% of the outstanding TML Shares.

As a result of the Distribution, First Mining's ownership interest in Treasury Metals decreased to 19,999,999 TML Shares, representing approximately 15.36% of the outstanding TML Shares on a non-diluted basis, based on the number of TML Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of the Distribution. First Mining does not hold any TML Warrants following the Distribution.

First Mining believes that the Distribution will provide a number of benefits to its shareholders, including: (i) allowing its shareholders to directly benefit from the value-enhancing Transaction, by returning value to such shareholders through the Distribution to them of TML Shares and TML Warrants; and (ii) providing its shareholders with the opportunity to participate in the future success of the Goldlund Project by becoming direct shareholders of Treasury Metals.

First Mining will continue to review its investment alternatives from time to time and may determine to increase or decrease its equity ownership in the Issuer through the acquisition or sale of additional outstanding TML Shares or other securities of Treasury Metals, either through open market or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws.
