VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 4, 2023
/CNW/ - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF)
(FSE: SR8) ("Scottie" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that, further to the Company's news release
dated September 8, 2023 (the
"Initial News Release"), the Company has closed the first
tranche (the "First Tranche") of its non-brokered private
placement (the "Private Placement"). Under the First
Tranche, the Company issued 3,985,000 non flow-through units (the
"NFT Units") at a price of $0.23 per NFT Unit for gross proceeds of
$916,550. Each NFT Unit consists of
one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Share")
and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole
warrant a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to
purchase an additional Share (a "Warrant Share") at an
exercise price of $0.35 per Warrant
Share for a period of two (2) years from the date of issuance.
In connection with the First Tranche, the Company issued 236,100
finder's warrants (each a "Finder's Warrant") and paid cash
commissions of $53,303 to certain
finders. Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder thereof to
purchase one Share of the Company at a price of $0.23 per Share for a period of two (2) years
from the date of issuance.
The Company intends to use the proceeds of the First Tranche for
general working capital and administrative purposes.
The securities offered in the First Tranche are subject to a
four month and a day transfer restriction from the date of issuance
expiring on February 5, 2024, in
addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable
securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.
Amendment to Private
Placement
The Company also announces certain amendments to the terms of
the Private Placement as disclosed in the Initial News Release.
The remaining tranches of the Private Placement will be
comprised of a combination of: (i) flow-through common shares (the
"FT Shares") that will qualify as a "flow-through
share" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax
Act (Canada) (the "Tax
Act"), to be sold at a price of $0.24 per FT Share for gross proceeds of up to
$1,000,000 (the "FT
Offering"); and (ii) charity flow-through units (the
"Charity FT Units") to be sold at a price of $0.33 per Charity FT Unit for gross proceeds of
up to $1,000,000 (the "Charity FT
Offering").
Each Charity FT Unit will consist of one FT Share and one-half
of one Warrant. Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to
purchase one Warrant Share for a period of two (2) years from the
date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.35 per Warrant Share.
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds raised from the FT
Offering and the Charity FT Offering for exploration and related
programs on the Company's Scottie and Blueberry mineral properties
which qualify as "Canadian Exploration Expenses" as such term is
defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of "Canadian exploration
expense" in subsection 66.1(6) of the Tax Act, and "flow through
mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Tax Act
that will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures", and "BC
flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 4.721(1)
of the Income Tax Act (British
Columbia), which will be incurred on or before December 31, 2024 and renounced with an effective
date no later than December 31, 2023,
to the initial purchasers of Charity FT Units and FT Shares.
The Company may pay finders' fees comprised of cash and Finder's
Warrants in connection with the FT Offering and the Charity FT
Offering, subject to compliance with the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange. All securities issued and sold under the FT
Offering and the Charity FT Offering will be subject to a hold
period expiring four months and one day from their date of
issuance. Completion of the FT Offering and the Charity FT Offering
and the payment of any finders' fees remain subject to the receipt
of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of
the TSX Venture Exchange.
Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services
Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or
accuracy of this release.
