VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – June 8, 2017) – Ayubowan Capital Ltd. (the “Company“) (NEX:AYB.H) is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering“) to raise up to $10,000,000 through the issuance of up to 20,000,000 subscription receipts at a price of $0.50 per subscription receipt.
The proceeds of the Offering will be held in escrow, pending the Company receiving all applicable regulatory approvals and completing its proposed Change of Business transaction as defined under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange“), as further described in the Company’s news release dated May 1, 2017.
Upon satisfaction of the escrow conditions, each subscription receipt will automatically convert into one unit of the Company for no additional consideration. Each Unit will consist of one common share and one share purchase warrant, with each share purchase warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional common share at a price of $1.00 per share for a period of 24 months from the date the warrants are issued. Finder’s fees may be payable to arm’s length parties who introduce the Company to subscribers, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange.
The proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund the Company’s proposed phase one exploration program on the Puerto Rico Property, as further described in the Company’s news release dated May 1, 2017. The balance of the proceeds will be used to fund preliminary exploration work on the other properties recently optioned by the Company as detailed in the Company’s news releases dated May 1, 2017 and June 1, 2017, and for general working capital purposes. A technical report on the Puerto Rico Property under National Instrument 43-101, will be filed on Sedar once finalized.
The Company anticipates that certain insiders will acquire securities in the private placement. To the extent such insiders participate in the private placement, any such participation would be considered a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101.
