Jaguar Resources Inc. (“Jaguar” or the “Company“) (TSX VENTURE:JRI) is pleased to announce that is has finalized and secured a multi-well drilling farm-in opportunity with an energy company that has significant land holdings in Alberta, Canada (the “Farm-in Arrangement“).
Jaguar has committed to commence the drilling of two earning wells targeting liquids rich Wilrich Formation at a depth of 1850 meters followed with an additional 1600 meter horizontal well at both Niton and Chip Lake (Carrot Creek) in Central Alberta. The drilling of these wells will provide Jaguar with the potential to earn a working interest and could lead to additional development drilling, production growth and a solid foundation for positive cash flow.
Additionally, in connection with the Farm-in Arrangement, Jaguar is pleased to announce that it has arranged a non-brokered private placement offering for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2,500,000 in common shares of the Company (“Common Shares“) and $10,000,0000 in Common Shares on a flow-through basis (the “Offering”). Subscribers will be entitled to renunciation, effective on or before December 31, 2016, of “Canadian exploration expenses” as such term is defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) in an amount equal to the aggregate subscription price paid by such subscriber, incurred (or deemed to incur) on or before December 31, 2017. Jaguar will also be adding a number of officers and consultants to assist with the drilling and completion of the wells. The Offering and the Farm-in Arrangement are subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals (including approval of the TSXV) and the completion of required regulatory filings with the TSXV.
