19.10.2023  |  Newsfile

Toronto, October 19, 2023 - Denarius Metals Corp. (TSXV: DSLV) (OTCQX: DNRSF) ("Denarius Metals" or the "Company") announced today the closing of the first tranche of its private placement (the "Offering") of Senior Unsecured Convertible Debentures (the "Debentures") for gross proceeds of CA$6,494,000 (the "Offering"). As announced in the Company's press release dated September 13, 2023, Denarius Metals plans to issue up to a total of CA$25,000,000 of Debentures and expects to complete the Offering in one or more additional tranches prior to October 31, 2023.

Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman and CEO of Denarius Metals, commented, "The phase 1 construction activities to prepare our Zancudo Project to commence mining operations in 2024 are progressing on schedule. We have a solid order book comprised of management, institutional and retail investors for our Offering that will be completed in its entirety this month. Closing this first tranche of Debentures, predominantly management and retail investors, allows us to get moving with deposits on the longer lead time items, including the processing plant, to meet our critical path to start concentrate production in the fourth quarter of 2024."

In conjunction with completing the first tranche of the Offering, the Company has updated the key terms of the Debentures, as previously disclosed in its press release dated September 13, 2023, in response to market conditions. The final key terms of the Debentures include:

  1. The Debentures are issuable at a price of CA$1.00 per Debenture (the "Principal Amount").
  2. The Debentures are non-callable and mature and become payable in full on October 19, 2028 ("Maturity"), unless otherwise converted, prepaid or accelerated in accordance with their terms.
  3. The Debentures bear interest at 12% per annum, paid monthly in equal installments in cash. The first interest payment will be made on November 30, 2023 and will include accrued interest from the date of issuance of the Debentures.
  4. The Company will pay interest only during the first year of the term of the Debentures while the Zancudo Project construction is being completed. A portion of the gross proceeds has been set aside in escrow to fund the monthly interest payments during the first 12 months.
  5. Commencing in the second year of the term of the Debentures, the Company will pay a Gold Premium on the Principal Amount of the Debentures in cash. The Gold Premium will be paid at the end of each quarter starting January 31, 2025. The Gold Premium will be calculated as a percentage equal to 25% of (i) the amount, if any, by which the London P.M. Fix on the quarterly measurement date exceeds US$1,800 (the "Floor Price") divided by (ii) the Floor Price.
  6. At any time prior to Maturity, the Debentures will be convertible at a holder's option into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of CA$0.45 per share.
  7. The Debentures represent senior unsecured obligations of the Company, ranking pari passu in right of payment with all other current and future unsecured debt of the Company and subordinated in right of payment, to all current and future secured debt and other liabilities of the Company, and senior in right of payment to any future debt and other liabilities of the Company that are expressly subordinated to the Debentures.
  8. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, after the interest escrow, to fund the construction activities at its Zancudo Project in Colombia and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
  9. The Debentures are subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day after the date of issuance.

In connection with the Offering, insiders of the Company, including Mr. Serafino Iacono (Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer), Mr. Michael Davies (Chief Financial Officer), Ms. Amanda Fullerton (General Counsel and Secretary) and Mr. Federico Restrepo-Solano (Director), acquired a total of CA$2,944,000 of Debentures. In conjunction with the Offering, the Company paid a total of CA$41,250 of fees in cash to certain arm's length agents and brokers who acted as finders.

The Company has received conditional approval to list the Debentures on Cboe Canada after the expiry of the four-month hold period. Listing of the Debentures on Cboe Canada is subject to final approval by Cboe Canada at the time of listing and the Company fulfilling listing requirements.
