VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Aug. 30, 2016) –
NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. WIRE SERVICES
Royalty North Partners Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:RNP) (“RNP” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has increased the size of its previously announced private placement.
On August 11, 2016, RNP announced that it intended to complete a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement“) for minimum gross proceeds of C$7,000,000 through the issuance of units (the “Units“) of the Company at an issue price of C$0.15 per Unit.
The Company now intends to raise approximately C$9,500,000 on the same terms as previously announced. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one share purchase warrant (the “Warrant“). Each full Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share in the capital of the Company at C$0.25 per share until the date that is 60 months from the closing of the Private Placement.
Proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to fund the previously announced Loan & Royalty Agreement with Country Wine & Spirits, Inc., a leading San Diego retailer of wine, beer & liquor, for transaction expenses and for working capital purposes.
The Company intends to pay a commission to certain arm’s length finders in connection with the Private Placement (the “Finder’s Fee“). The Finder’s Fee will be comprised of a 6% cash commission and 6% in non-transferable brokers warrants, which warrants will otherwise be on the same terms as those issued pursuant to the Private Placement.
The Private Placement remains subject to certain conditions, including the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.
All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to a hold period of four months from the date of issuance of the securities.
On behalf of the Company,
Justin Currie, Chief Executive Officer and Director
