Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
- --------- ---------------------------------------
Fischer-Watt Gold Company, Inc. (the "Company") previously raised $540,000
through a series of private placements that were completed in January 2006. The
sales of the Company's unregistered securities in these private placements were
reported on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission
on February 14, 2006.
Each investor purchased units at $0.05 per unit. Each unit was comprised of one
share of the Company's common stock and one share purchase warrant entitling the
holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of
US$0.10 up until 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time on January 15, 2008. Effective January
14, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a one year extension of
the expiration date of the 10,800,000 outstanding warrants to January 15, 2009.
However, if the common shares of the Company trade at or over an average price
of US$0.15 per share for a 20 day continuous period, the average price being
weighted by the number of shares traded, then, upon written notice to the holder
by the Company, the holder shall be required to exercise the warrants within 30
days of the date of that notice, after which the warrants will expire.
