(NYSE: CDE) (“Coeur”) announce that they have entered into a bid letter with a syndicate of underwriters led by PI Financial Corp., Haywood Securities Inc. and Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation (the “Co-Lead Underwriters” and together with the syndicate, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to buy on a “bought deal” basis 2,400,000 common shares of Metalla (the “Common Shares”) currently held by Coeur at a price of US$5.30 per Common Share for gross proceeds to Coeur of approximately US$12.72 million (the “Secondary Offering”). Metalla will not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering. In addition, Coeur has granted the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up to an additional 15% of the number of shares of Metalla sold in the Secondary Offering for up to 30 days after the closing, on the same terms and conditions as the Secondary Offering. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the total gross proceeds to Coeur will be US$14,628,000.

Coeur currently owns, as of the date hereof, 5,241,310 Common Shares, representing approximately 14.9% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of Metalla (on a non-diluted basis). Upon closing of the Secondary Offering and prior to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, Coeur’s ownership of Metalla’s issued and outstanding Common Shares will be reduced from 14.9% to 6.7% (on a non-diluted basis) after giving effect to the Wharf royalty transaction announced on June 22, 2020 by Metalla.

Coeur has also agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to sell any Common Shares or other securities of Metalla for a period of 120 days from the closing of the Secondary Offering.

The Company also announced the Wharf royalty transaction with Coeur on June 22, 2020.  As part of the royalty transaction, Coeur has agreed to waive its pre-emptive right with respect to the Wharf royalty, concurrent with the completion of the Secondary Offering.
