Premier American Uranium Inc. (“PUR”, the
“Company” or “Premier American Uranium”) (TSXV:
PUR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an
agreement with Red Cloud Securities Inc. to act as lead agent and
sole bookrunner with PI Financial Corp. acting as co-agent
(collectively, the “
Agents”) in connection with a
fully marketed private placement (the “
Offering”)
of up to 2,040,817 subscription receipts of PUR (each, a
“
Subscription Receipt”) at a price of C$2.45 per
Subscription Receipt (the “
Offering Price”) for
gross proceeds of up to C$5,000,002. The Agents will have an
option, exercisable in full or in part up to 48 hours prior to the
closing of the Offering, to sell up to an additional 408,164
Subscription Receipts at the Offering Price for additional gross
proceeds of up to C$1,000,002. The Offering is expected to include
lead orders of at least C$1.5 million in the aggregate from Sachem
Cove Partners, and Mega Uranium Ltd.
Colin Healey, CEO of PUR commented, “We are
excited to be strengthening our balance sheet at a time when
uranium fundamentals are extremely robust. PUR was strategically
built to acquire, explore, and develop uranium assets in the U.S.
Now, with the anticipated closing of the arrangement with American
Future Fuel, our scope has expanded to encompass three key uranium
mining districts: the Great Divide Basin of Wyoming, the Uravan
Mineral Belt of Colorado, and the Grants Mineral Belt in New
Mexico. We believe today’s financing positions us well to advance
our growth strategy and we extend our gratitude to our cornerstone
shareholders, Sachem Cove Partners, and Mega Uranium Ltd., and
other institutional investors, whose ongoing support provides us
the ability to execute our vision.”
Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the
holder thereof to automatically receive, upon satisfaction or
waiver, as applicable, of certain escrow release conditions (the
“Escrow Release Conditions”), one unit of PUR (a
“Unit”). Each Unit will be comprised of one common
share of PUR (each, a “Unit Share”) and one-half
of one common share purchase warrant of PUR (each whole warrant, a
“Warrant”). Each whole Warrant will entitle the
holder to purchase one common share of PUR (each, a
“Warrant Share”) at a price of C$3.50 for a period
of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.
The Escrow Release Conditions include the
satisfaction of all conditions precedent (other than conditions
precedent that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until closing)
to the completion of the pending transaction as announced by the
Company in a press release dated March 20, 2024, pursuant to which
the Company has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding
common shares of American Future Fuel Corporation
(“AMPS”) by way of a court-approved plan of
arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia)
(the “Arrangement”). Completion of the Arrangement
is subject to, among other things, receipt of applicable regulatory
approvals, court approvals, as well as the requisite approval of
AMPS shareholders.
The proceeds of the Offering, net of the
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents, will be held in
escrow and not released to PUR until the Escrow Release Conditions
are satisfied or waived, as applicable. If the Escrow Release
Conditions have not been satisfied or waived, as applicable, on or
prior August 30, 2024, the aggregate Offering Price of the
Subscription Receipts (plus any interest earned thereon) will be
returned to the holders (net of any applicable withholding taxes),
and such Subscription Receipts will be automatically cancelled and
be of no further force and effect. Following the satisfaction or
waiver, as applicable, of the Escrow Release Conditions, the net
proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used to fund the
proposed exploration programs for PUR’s projects as well as for
working capital and general corporate purposes. The Offering is
expected to close on or around May 2, 2024.
All securities issued in connection with the
Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four
months and one day following the date of closing of the
Offering.
