/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S.
WIRE SERVICES/
VANCOUVER, BC, May 26, 2023
/CNW/ - Group Eleven Resources Corp. (the "Company")
(TSXV: ZNG) (OTC: GRLVF) (FRA: 3GE) is pleased to announce that it
has closed its non-brokered private placement (the "Private
Placement"), as previously announced in the Company's news
releases dated May 1, 2023 and
May 2, 2023.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued
16,666,666 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of
$0.09 per Unit for aggregate gross
proceeds of approximately $1,500,000.
Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the
Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one
non-transferable Common Shares purchase warrant (each whole
warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable into one
Common Share at a price of $0.15 per
Common Share for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance.
All currency in this news release is denominated in Canadian
dollars.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued
102,600 finder's warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") and paid
cash commissions of $9,234 to certain
arm's length finders (the "Finders"). Each Finder's Warrant
entitles the Finder, on exercise thereof, to acquire one additional
Common Share at a price of $0.09 per
Common Share for a period of 36 months from the date of
issuance.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private
Placement primarily for follow-up drilling on the Company's
Ballywire zinc-lead-silver discovery at the PG West project
(100%-interest) in Ireland, as
well as for general and administrative purposes. There may be
circumstances, however, where, for sound business reasons, a
reallocation of funds may be necessary.
Prior to closing of the Private Placement, Michael Gentile held 26,366,614 Common Shares
and 6,508,333 Warrants, each Warrant entitling Mr. Gentile to
purchase one additional Common Share upon payment of additional
consideration to the Company. These Common Shares and Warrants
represented approximately 16.66% of the Company's then-issued and
outstanding Common Shares on an undiluted basis and approximately
19.95% of the Company's then-issued and outstanding Common Shares
on a partially diluted basis. Pursuant to the Private Placement,
Mr. Gentile acquired an additional 2,432,888 Units for aggregate
cash consideration of approximately $218,960. Following the completion of the Private
Placement, Mr. Gentile beneficially owns and controls an aggregate
of 28,799,502 Common Shares and 7,724,777 Warrants, representing
approximately 16.46% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common
Shares on an undiluted basis and approximately 19.99% of the
Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares on a partially
diluted basis.
The Private Placement is subject to all necessary regulatory
approvals including acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange. All
securities issued in connection with the Private Placement,
including those issued to the Finders, will be subject to a
four-month hold period from the closing date under applicable
Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as
may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside
Canada.
The ownership percentages of Common Shares described above are
based on the Company having 158,301,502 Common Shares issued and
outstanding prior to the completion of the Private Placement, and
174,968,168 Common Shares outstanding upon completion of the
Private Placement.
