August 07 2023 - 6:30AM
Yorbeau Resources Inc. (TSX: YRB) (the "
Company"
or "
Yorbeau") is pleased to announce that it
has completed the third and final tranche of a $1,200,000 private
placement (the "
Private Placement") by issuing on
August 4, 2023, 8,898,333 Class A common shares comprised of
3,668,333 "flow-through" Class A common shares at a price of $0.07
per share and 5,230,000 non-flow-through Class A common shares at a
price of $0.035 per share for an aggregate gross proceeds of
$439,833. The first and second tranches of the Private Placement
generated an aggregate of $760,167 in gross proceeds for the
Company, as previously announced by the Company on June 30, 2023.
The Company will use the proceeds raised from
the issue of the flow-through Class A common shares to incur
Canadian exploration expenses on its properties and the proceeds
raised from the issue of the non-flow-through Class A common shares
for general corporate purposes.
Four directors of the Company, namely Messrs.
Terry Kocisko, Georges Bodnar Jr., Henri Gélinas, and Dany
Laflamme, subscribed for 3,096,429, 485,714, 861,457 and 1,703,333
Class A common shares, respectively, and a total of 6,146,933 Class
A common shares in the aggregate having an aggregate subscription
price of $336,534.31. As insiders of the Company participated in
the Private Placement, it is deemed to be a "related party
transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument
61-101—Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Private
Placement was reviewed and approved by the board of directors of
the Company, with interested directors abstaining from voting on
such approval following a disclosure of their interest in the
Private Placement as required under the Business Corporations Act
(Québec). The Private Placement is exempt from the formal valuation
and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101
(pursuant to subsections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a)) as neither the fair
market value of the Class A common shares distributed to, nor the
consideration received from, interested parties exceeded 25% of the
Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a
material change report at least 21 days prior to the closing of the
first and second tranches of the Private Placement as participation
of the insiders had not been confirmed at that time.
The Company paid finder fees in the aggregate
amount of $3,572 with respect to a portion of the third tranche of
the Private Placement.
