NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
LONGUEUIL, Quebec, June 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reunion Gold Corporation (“Reunion” or the “Company”) (TSXV: RGD; OTCQB: RGDFF), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a revised agreement with Sprott Capital Partners, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters, to increase the size of the previously announced bought deal private placement financing (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the amendment, the underwriters have agreed to purchase 115,500,000 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of C$0.26 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of C$30,030,000. The other terms of the Offering, including the over-allotment option, remain unchanged from the Company’s news release dated June 14, 2022.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.39 for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering, provided that if the volume weighted average closing price of the Common Shares of the Company on the TSX Venture Exchange or such other stock exchange on which the Common Shares are traded is equal to or greater than C$0.55 for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may at its option elect to accelerate the expiry of the Warrants.
Concurrent Non-Brokered Private Placement
Dundee Resources Limited (“Dundee”), a 16.48% shareholder of the Company, has a right to elect to purchase a proportionate number of Units, at the same price and having the same terms and conditions as the Units, to maintain its 16.48% interest in the Company. Any such participation, representing approximately 22,800,000 Units for gross proceeds of C$5,928,000, will occur by way of a concurrent non-brokered private placement. The Company anticipates that the non-brokered private placement will be completed concurrently with the closing of the Offering.
All securities issued pursuant to the Offering and Non-Brokered Private Placement will have a hold period of four months and one day. 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 U.S. state security laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or compliance with requirements of an applicable exemption therefrom. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
