Victoria Gold Closes $1.7M Flow Through Financing

 

 

 

 

 

Victoria Gold Corp.  (TSX-V: VIT-V) The Company is pleased to announce, further to its announcements on December 21, 2018 and December 24, 2018, the Company has completed a brokered flow-through financing of 3,355,000 common shares of the Corporation that will qualify as “flow-through shares” (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at a price of $0.50 per share for gross proceeds of $1,677,500.

 

The Offering was led by PI Financial Corp. In consideration for their services, the Company has paid a cash commission equal to $54,550.

 

The proceeds from the sale of the Flow-Through Shares will be used by the Company to fund exploration and development on the Dublin Gulch property in Yukon.

 

All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a four month hold period which will expire on April 29, 2019.  The Offering is subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.

 

Certain subscribers under the Offering are considered to be a “related party” of the Company, and have subscribed for an aggregate of 1,660,000 Flow-Through Shares for gross proceeds of $830,000. Each subscription by a “related party” of the Company is considered to be a “related party transaction” for purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions and Policy 5.9 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions of the TSX Venture Exchange. Pursuant to MI 61-101, the Company will file a material change report providing disclosure in relation to each “related party transaction” on SEDAR under Victoria’s issuer profile at www.sedar.com. The Company did not file the material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing date of the Offering as the details of the Offering and the participation therein by each “related party” of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Offering, and the Company wished to close the Offering on an expedited basis for sound business reasons. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements available under MI 61-101. The Company is exempt from the formal valuation requirement in section 5.4 of MI 61-101 in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and (b) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, is not more than the 25% of the Company’s market capitalization, and no securities of the Company are listed or quoted for trading on prescribed stock exchanges or stock markets. Additionally, the Company is exempt from minority shareholder approval requirement in section 5.6 of MI 61-101 in reliance on section 5.7(b) as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, is not more than the 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Offering was approved by the board of directors of Victoria. No special committee was established in connection with the transaction, and no materially contrary view or abstention was expressed or made by any director.

 

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of securities in the United States. The securities 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 or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
