SAGA Metals Corp. (TSX-V: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery in Canada, is pleased to announce that it has closed a first tranche of its non-brokered private placement announced on May 2, 2025 for gross proceeds of $1,239,700.10. The Company has also received a 30-day extension to close the Offering from the TSX Venture Exchange, and accordingly expects to close the final tranche of the Offering on or before June 25, 2025.
On closing of the First Tranche, the Company received gross proceeds of $444,200.10 from the issuance of 1,480,667 flow-through units at a price of $0.30 per unit and $795,500 from the issuance of 3,182,000 hard dollar units at a price of $0.25 per unit.
Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and one transferable common share purchase warrant. Each Warrant will entitle its holder to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.50 for 24 months from the closing date of the Offering. The Warrants and the Warrant Shares underlying the FT Units will not qualify as “flow-through shares” under the Tax Act.
Each HD Unit consists of one common share and one Warrant.
All securities issued in connection with the First Tranche are subject to a hold period of four months and one day following the Closing Date pursuant to applicable securities laws.
In connection with the First Tranche, the Company paid an aggregate of $31,710.01 in finder’s fees and issued 108,616 finder’s warrants to certain finders. Each Finder’s Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.50 per share for a period of 24 months from its date of issue.
Each of the Warrants and Finder’s Warrants will be subject to the right of the Company to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants and Finder’s Warrants to a date that is 30 days following dissemination of a news release announcing such acceleration if, at any time, after the Closing Date, the closing price of the Company’s common shares equals or exceeds $0.75 for a period of ten consecutive trading days on the TSX Venture Exchange.
The gross proceeds from the FT Units will be used by the Company for “Canadian exploration expenses” that are “flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures” (as such terms are defined in the Tax Act) on the Company’s Labrador, Canada properties. The net proceeds of the HD Units will be used by the Company for administrative and general working capital.
Certain insiders of SAGA participated in the First Tranche, acquiring an aggregate of 442,000 HD Units for aggregate gross proceeds of $110,500. Participation of such insiders in the Offering constitutes a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions and is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to the insiders nor the consideration paid by the insiders exceeded 25% of SAGA’s market capitalization.
The securities of SAGA have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold, within the United States, unless exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws are available.
No securities regulatory authority has reviewed or approved of the contents of this news release. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of SAGA in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
