Launch of Convertible Debenture Offering
Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 9, 2024) - Green River Gold Corp. (CSE: CCR) (OTC Pink: CCRRF) (the "Company" or "Green River") is pleased to announce that it plans to undertake a non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") to raise up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of CAD$900,000 (the "Principal Amount") of convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures").
The Convertible Debentures will mature 5 years from the date of issuance (the "Maturity Date") and will bear interest at the rate of 11.0% per annum ("Interest"). The Interest shall be payable quarterly on the last day of March, June, September and December in each year, commencing December 31, 2024. The December 31, 2024 Interest payment will represent accrued and unpaid Interest for the period from the issuance date to December 31, 2024.
The holder of Convertible Debentures, in its sole discretion, shall have the option to convert the Convertible Debentures into common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Shares") at any time prior to 5:00pm MST on the Maturity Date (the "Conversion Privilege"). The Principal Amount, and all Interest accrued and unpaid thereon, shall be convertible, for no additional consideration, into Shares at a conversion price equal to $0.06 per Share.
At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Principal Amount in respect of which the Conversion Privilege has not been exercised may be prepaid by the Company on at least 30 days' written notice to the holders of the Convertible Debentures.
The Convertible Debentures will be unsecured obligations of the Company and shall rank pari passu in right of payment of the Principal Amount and Interest with all other Convertible Debentures issued under the Offering and all previously existing unsecured indebtedness of the Company. The Convertible Debentures will be issuable in a number of tranches (each a "Tranche"), with the closing of the first Tranche expected to occur on or before September 30, 2024 or such other date as determined by the Company.
No commissions will be paid with respect to the Offering. However, the Company may pay a cash finder's fee to certain finders of up to 5% of the aggregate gross proceeds of subscriptions facilitated by such finders.
The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary approvals to list both the Convertible Debentures and the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
The net proceeds received by the Company from the Offering are intended to be used for drilling and exploration, to expand the Company's placer mining operations, investment in drilling equipment and businesses, and general working capital.
Final Closing of Unit Offering Consisting of Flow-Through Shares and Warrants
Further to its news release dated May 16, 2024, the Company announces that it has closed on the final tranche of the previously announced non-brokered private placement of units consisting of flow-through shares and warrants (the "FT Offering"). In total, the Company issued 3,584,819 units ("FT Units") under the FT Offering at a price of $0.055 per Unit for gross proceeds of CAD$197,165.05. Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share ("FT Share") within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "ITA") and one-half common share purchase warrant (each such whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Common Share for a period of four years following the closing of the FT Offering at an exercise price of $0.08 per Common Share, subject to the acceleration provisions described below. In addition, subscribers of FT Units who are individuals will benefit from the Critical Mineral Exploration Tax Credit pursuant to subsections 127(5) and (9) of the ITA. If the closing price of the Company's Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") (or such other principal exchange on which the Shares may be traded at such time) is equal to or greater than $0.15 for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days, the Company may, at its sole option, accelerate the expiry date of Warrants to the date which is thirty (30) days following the date upon which notice of the accelerated expiry date is provided by the Company (given by way of news release). The securities issued under FT Offering are subject to a four month and a day hold period from the date of issuance.
No broker commissions were paid with respect to the FT Offering. However, the Company paid an aggregate amount of $9,988.00 in cash finder's fees to certain finders, which amount equals 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds of subscriptions under the FT Offering facilitated by such finders.
The Company intends to use the proceeds of the FT Offering for the continued exploration drilling on the Quesnel Nickel Project.
