Apollo Silver Corp. (“
Apollo
Silver” or the “
Company”) (TSX.V:APGO,
OTCQB:APGOF, Frankfurt:6ZF0) is pleased to announce a non-brokered
private placement offering of up to 50,000,000 shares of the
Company (the “
Shares”) at a price of $0.20 per
Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $10,000,000 (the
“
Offering”).
All securities issued in connection with the
Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date
of closing. Finder’s fees may be payable on any or all of the funds
in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“TSX-V”). The Company intends on using the net
proceeds from the Offering to continue advancing the Calico Silver
Project in San Bernardino, California, to invest in community
relations initiatives at its newly optioned Cinco de Mayo Silver
Project in Chihuahua, Mexico (see news release dated September 23,
2024), for ongoing property maintenance costs at both projects, and
for general corporate purposes.
Closing of the Offering is subject to regulatory
approval including that of the TSX-V.
The Shares have not been, and will not be,
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any U.S.
state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United
States without registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all
applicable state securities laws or compliance with the
requirements of an applicable exemption therefrom. This news
release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there
be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such
offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
Share Consolidation
Following closing of the Offering, the Company
intends to consolidate (the “Consolidation”) its
issued and outstanding Shares at a ratio of five (5)
pre-Consolidation Shares to one (1) post-Consolidation Share.
Prior to the Consolidation, and assuming
completion of the Offering, the Company is expected to have
224,693,729 Shares issued and outstanding. Following the
Consolidation, the Company will have approximately 44,938,746
Shares issued and outstanding.
No fractional Shares will be issued under the
Consolidation. The holdings of any shareholder who would otherwise
be entitled to receive a fractional Share as a result of the
Consolidation shall be rounded to the nearest whole number and no
cash consideration will be paid in respect of fractional Shares.
The Consolidation will not affect any shareholder's percentage
ownership in the Company other than by the minimal effect of the
aforementioned elimination of fractional Shares, even though such
ownership will be represented by a smaller number of Shares.
Instead, the Consolidation will reduce proportionately the number
of Shares held by all shareholders.
A letter of transmittal will be mailed to
registered shareholders providing instructions with respect to
exchanging share certificates representing pre-Consolidation Shares
for post-Consolidation Shares. Shareholders who hold their Shares
in brokerage accounts or in book-entry form are not required to
take any action as they will have their holdings electronically
adjusted by the Company’s transfer agent or by their brokerage
firms, banks, trust or other nominees. In accordance with the
Company’s Articles, the Consolidation will not require shareholder
approval and has been approved by the Company’s Board of
Directors.
Completion of the Consolidation remains subject to regulatory
approval.
