UPDATE ON THE CA$7M FLOW-THROUGH-SHARE PRIVATE PLACEMENT |
|
Virginia Mines Inc. (“Virginia”) wishes to inform its shareholders that in the context of the recent announcement by Finances et Économie Québec of changes to various measures of a fiscal nature affecting the refundable tax credit for resources and the Québec flow-through share regime, Virginia and Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. (“LBS”), which is acting as agent for the offering, mutually agreed to review certain terms and conditions of the private placement announced on January 28, 2014.
The offering now consists in the issuance of 353,334 flow-through common shares (the “Flow-Through Shares”) at a price of $19.50 per share, for gross proceeds of CA$6,890,013 (the “Offering”).
Virginia has agreed to pay LBS on closing a cash fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or before March 4, 2014 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange. The Flow-Through Shares will be subject to a four-month-hold period and a day in Canada.
Proceeds from the offering will be used to fund exploration work on Virginia’s numerous projects for the next 18 months.
Parties are waiting for further information from governmental authorities to better assess the impacts of these announcements.
