OROMIN ARRANGES FINANCING OF UP TO $15 MILLION
Oromin Explorations Ltd (“TSX-V:OLE”) is pleased to report that it has, subject to regulatory approval, arranged a brokered private placement of minimum of 3,030,500 units to a maximum of 6,061,000 units at a price of $1.65 per unit to generate gross proceeds of between $5,000,325 and $10,000,650. The gross proceeds will be used primarily to fund its next phase of work on its Sabodala Property in eastern Sénégal. Each unit will consist of one share and one half share purchase warrant, with every whole warrant entitling the purchase of one additional share of Oromin at $2.20 per share for a period of no longer than two years from the closing date. Beginning on or after four months following the closing date, if for a period of 20 consecutive trading days, the closing price of Oromin’s shares equals or exceeds $3.40, Oromin may give notice in writing that the warrants will expire on the 21st day following delivery of such notice.
J.F. Mackie & Company Ltd. of Calgary, Alberta has agreed to act as Oromin's agent in respect of this placement and will receive a cash commission equal to 8% as well as broker warrants equal to 10% of the gross proceeds sold under this placement. Each broker warrant will entitle the purchase of one Oromin share at a price of $1.65 per share for a period of two years from the closing date. A finder’s fee is also payable in respect of this placement.
Oromin is also pleased to report that it has arranged, subject to regulatory approval, a non-brokered private placement of a further 3,030,500 units of Oromin at price of $1.65 per unit, each unit having the same terms as the units issued under the brokered placement.
