In connection with securities sold pursuant to the Offering, Zonte will pay finders' fees to Eligible Finders of $47,400 in cash and will issue 384,000 Finders' Warrants to Eligible Finders. Each Finders' Warrant is exercisable until December 20, 2027, to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.20 per share, subject to Exchange Approval. All Finders' Fees are subject to and in accordance with Exchange and regulatory policies and the securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month and one day statutory hold period.
Certain insiders of the Company acquired 1,638,000 Common Share Units in the Offering for proceeds to the Company of $163,800. Any participation by insiders in the Offering would constitute a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). However, the Company intends to rely on the exemptions available under the instrument and such participation will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for working capital purposes and exploration at the Cross Hills Iron Oxide Copper Gold Property, in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Zonte is also pleased to announce that it has optioned its Wings Point East to Southern Sky Resources Corp ("Southern"). Subject to Southern receiving the necessary regulatory approvals and commencement of trading on a Canadian Stock Exchange prior to June 1, 2023, Southern can earn a 100% interest in the claims by paying Zonte $100,000 and issuing 750,000 Southern shares to Zonte over a two-year period. Zonte will retain a 2% NSR on one of the claim blocks. Southern is in the process of completing a NI-43-101 technical report on the project and will seek to list on a Canadian stock exchange.
