Western Uranium & Vanadium Closes Bought Deal Financing of CAD $5 Million

 

 

 

 

 

Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. (CSE: WUC) (OTCQX: WSTRF) is pleased to announce the closing of its bought deal private placement financing, which was previously announced in the Company’s news release issued on June 10, 2025. Pursuant to the financing, Western issued a total of 5,911,786 units at a price of CAD $0.85 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately CAD $5,025,018 with each Unit being comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each Warrant is exercisable for one Share of the Company at a price of CAD $1.05 per Share, for a period of four years from the date of its issuance. A total of 5,911,786 Shares and 5,911,786 Warrants were issued in the Offering.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for the expansion of the production capability and mining at the Sunday Mine Complex, licensing and development of minerals processing facilities, baseline data collection and permitting of the San Rafael Project, acquisition of uranium/vanadium properties in close proximity to Western’s production centers, purchase of additional mining equipment and for general working capital purposes.

 

The Units were issued to investors who are residents in the United States pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act“), and were also issued in such other jurisdictions outside of Canada pursuant to Ontario Securities Commission Rule 72-503 – Distributions Outside Canada. The Units issued to investors outside Canada pursuant to Rule 72-503 are not subject to any statutory hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws. No Units were issued to investors in Canada.

 

The CEO and President of Western, George Glasier, participated in the Offering by subscribing for a total of 117,647 Units. Mr. Glasier’s participation is considered a “related-party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. Western relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that Mr. Glasier’s participation in the Offering did not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the details of the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing of the Offering and the Company closed the Offering on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.

 

In connection with the Offering, Western entered into an underwriting agreement with A.G.P. Canada Investment ULC pursuant to which the Underwriter acted as the sole underwriter and bookrunner for the Company. The Underwriter received a fee comprised of a cash commission of 7% on the aggregate proceeds from Units and 206,913 broker warrants which are subject to a four-month statutory hold from the date of their issuance. A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as sole U.S. placement agent for the Offering.

 

Closing of the Offering was subject to certain conditions and receipt of all necessary approvals, and is subject to compliance with post-closing requirements of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

 

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
