13.11.2024  |  Newsfile

Toronto, November 13, 2024 - Aurania Resources Ltd. (TSXV: ARU) (OTCQB: AUIAF) (FSE: 20Q) ("Aurania" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its intention to complete a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 7,272,728 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of C$0.55 per Unit (the "Issue Price") for total gross proceeds to the Company of up to C$4,000,000 (the "Offering"). The Company has reserved the right to increase the size of the Offering by up to 25% of the size of the Offering, such that up to an additional 1,818,182 Units may be issued to raise additional gross proceeds of up to C$1,000,000.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of C$0.90 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the Offering for exploration in France including impact studies, exploration programs at key targets in Ecuador, and for general working capital purposes.

Finders

In connection with the Offering, the Company may pay finders' fees to certain eligible finders of up to 7% in cash of the gross proceeds raised in the Offering from subscribers introduced to the Company by such finders and up to 7% in finders warrants (the "Finder Warrants") of the aggregate number of Units placed by such finders, subject to the approval of the TSXV. Each Finder Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one (1) Unit at the Issue Price and will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering. Each Finder Warrant will be comprised of one Common Share and one Warrant.

Subscription Procedure

Existing shareholders and other investors interested in subscribing to the Offering should register their interest via email to carolyn.muir@aurania.com.

Closing and Hold Period

Closing of the Offering is anticipated to be completed on or about December 10, 2024, or such other date or dates that the Company may determine and may close in tranches. Closing is subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including (but not limited to) the receipt of approval from the TSXV of the listing of the Common Shares and the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Warrants are not eligible to be listed, and therefore will not be tradeable on the TSXV. The securities issued pursuant to the Offering shall be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period commencing on the day of the closing of the Offering, as applicable, under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals including the approval of the TSXV.

Debt Settlement

Aurania's board of directors have agreed to approve a debt settlement arrangement with Dr. Keith Barron, the CEO and a director of the Company, whereby Dr. Barron will convert C$1,652,168.75 of the loans owed to him by the Company, plus interest accrued thereof, for an aggregate amount of C$1,740,616.36 (the "Debt") owed to him, into Common Shares at a price of C$0.55 per Common share (the "Debt Settlement"). Under the Debt Settlement, up to 3,164,757 Common Shares may be issued to settle the Debt. The Debt relates to promissory notes of the Company in respect of loans by Dr. Barron for the purpose of providing cash resources to the Company. The Company has elected to settle the indebtedness through the issuance of Common Shares to preserve cash and strengthen the Company's balance sheet. There are no warrants associated with the Debt Settlement.

Closing of the Debt Settlement is anticipated to be completed on or about December 10, 2024, or such other date or dates that the Company may determine and may close in tranches. The securities issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement shall be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period commencing on the day of the closing of the Debt Settlement, as applicable, under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Debt Settlement is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals including the approval of the TSXV.

Insider Participation

Certain directors and officers of the Company are expected to acquire Units under the Offering and/or participate in the Debt Settlement. Such participation will be considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined under the policies of the TSXV and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company anticipates relying on exemptions from the minority shareholder approval and formal valuation requirements applicable to the related-party transactions under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Units to be acquired by the participating directors and officers or the Common Shares to be acquired by Dr. Barron under the Debt Settlement nor the consideration to be paid by such directors and officers is anticipated to exceed 25 percent of the Company's market capitalization.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
