Guanajuato Silver Arranges Shares for Debt

 

 

 

 

 

Guanajuato Silver Company Ltd. (TSX-V:GSVR) announces that the Company has arranged to issue 2,468,750 common shares of the Company at a deemed price of C$0.40 per Share in settlement of outstanding accounts payable and accrued liabilities to various parties totaling approximately C$987,000.

 

A private company controlled by Hernan Dorado, a director and an officer of GSilver, will receive 656,250 Shares in settlement of C$262,500 due as of October 10, 2022 pursuant to GSilver’s agreement to purchase certain underlying royalties over the Company’s Pinguico Mine as more particularly described in GSilver’s news release dated August 20, 2020 – VanGold Options Back Royalties to Streamline El Pinguico Ownership Structure).

 

Additionally, MGA Contratista Minera S.A. de C.V., the Company’s primary mine contractor at the El Cubo Mine will receive 1,712,500 Shares in settlement of outstanding payables of approximately US$500,000 (C$685,000). See GSilver’s news release dated August 6, 2021- GSilver Begins Stockpiling Vein Material at El Cubo for details of the Company’s mining contract with MGA.

 

Also, the Company has agreed to issue a total of 37,500 Shares to Ramon Davila, the President and a director of the Company, in partial settlement of certain monies owing to Mr. Davila under this employment agreement with the Company.

 

James Anderson, Chairman and CEO said, “The settlement of these outstanding payments for Shares is very helpful for GSilver’s working capital position as we move to bring all our mining assets back to full production. Furthermore, this debt settlement demonstrates a major vote of confidence on the part of these key members of management and our main mine contractor, who clearly see value in being shareholders of the Company.”

 

The issuance of Shares to Ramon Davila and indirectly to Hernan Dorado, the President and COO of the Company, respectively (collectively, the “Related Parties“), will be considered “related party transactions” within the meaning of Policy 5.9 of the TSX Venture Exchange and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security holders in Special Transactions adopted in the Policy. The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of such Related Parties’ participation in the Debt Settlement as neither the fair market value of the Debt Settlement of, nor the fair market value of the Shares to be issued thereunder, insofar as it involves Related Parties, is expected to exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization (all as determined under MI 61-101). It is anticipated that the material change report of GSilver to be filed in connection with this announcement of the Debt Settlement will be filed less than 21 days in advance of the closing of the Debt Settlement, which GSilver considers reasonable within the context of current market conditions and the desire of all parties to complete the Debt Settlement as expeditiously as possible.

 

The Debt Settlement is subject to acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange and all Shares issued thereunder will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
