09 March 2021 - 12:30AM
Millrock Resources Inc. (TSX-V: MRO) ("
Millrock"
or the “
Company") reports that the upsized bought
deal (underwritten by REDPLUG Inc.) and concurrent non-brokered
private placements reported in the Company’s news releases of
February 23 and March 2, 2021 (together, the
“
Financings”) have closed.
Gross proceeds totaling $3,146,434.80 were
raised by the Company’s issuance of 37,016,880 units
(“Units”) at a price of $0.085 per Unit (the
“Offering Price”), including 4,311,000 Units
issued pursuant to REDPLUG Inc.’s exercise of the over-allotment
option. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and
one common share purchase warrant (the “Unit
Warrants”). Each Unit Warrant entitles the holder to
purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of
$0.1275 per share for two years from the date of issuance.
Millrock President & CEO Gregory Beischer
commented: “We were very pleased to have received such strong
support from our existing shareholder base in this financing and we
welcome new shareholders. The funds we have raised will be put to
good use for generation of new projects. While gold will still be a
focus commodity, we are looking to expand our portfolio with
greater emphasis on copper, nickel, and a variety of other critical
and strategic metals. Generative efforts in the past 18 months have
led to some excellent funding partnerships with earn-in companies.
The coming year will see a lot of drilling on Millrock controlled
projects. We will be hoping to make the transformative discovery
that will result in the share price appreciation we all want to
see.”
Officers and directors of Millrock subscribed
for a total of 1,300,880 Units in the financing. These
subscriptions constitute “related party” transactions within the
meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority
Security Holders in Special Transactions. However, these
subscriptions are exempt from the formal valuation and minority
shareholder approval requirements pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and
5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market
value of the securities issued to the participating officers and
directors, nor the fair market value of the consideration paid,
exceeds 25% of Millrock’s market capitalization.
REDPLUG Inc. was paid a cash commission of
$148,971.85 and was issued non-transferable broker warrants for the
purchase, at the Offering Price, of 2,184,880 Units (the “Broker
Warrants”). Each Broker Warrant is exercisable for two years from
the date of issuance. Finder’s fees consisting of cash and
non-transferable finder warrants (the “Finder Warrants”) were paid
to the following: Canaccord Genuity Corp. $5,176.50 and 32,900
Finder Warrants; Haywood Securities Inc. $27,072.50 and 84,000
Finder Warrants; Echelon Wealth Partners $4,760; GloRes Securities
Inc. $5,598.95; Sightline Wealth Management $3,391.50 and Sprott
Capital Partners LP $680. Finder Warrants have the same terms as

acceptance.
