Mega Uranium Announces Ben Lomond Option Exercise
15 Juni 2022 - 5:54PM
Mega Uranium Ltd. (MGA: TSX) announces that Consolidated Uranium
Inc. (“
CUR”) has exercised its option to purchase
Mega’s Ben Lomond uranium property located in Queensland, Australia
(the “
Property”). In accordance with the terms of
the option, CUR has elected to pay the $2.5 million purchase price
for the Property by the issuance to Mega on closing of 1,104,240
common shares of CUR, at a deemed price of $2.264 per share, being
the volume weighted average trading price of the shares for the
five trading days ended two business days prior to the option
exercise.
An additional payment of $535,000 will also be
due to Mega on closing, which was contingent on the monthly average
spot price of uranium reaching US$50 subsequent to the execution of
the underlying option agreement in May 2020. CUR has similarly
elected to satisfy payment of this amount by issuing an additional
236,308 common shares to Mega. Further contingent payment
obligations of up to $1,850,000 associated with monthly average
uranium spot prices of at least US$75 and US$100 will remain in
effect for a period of twenty years. The issuance of all of the CUR
common shares to Mega on closing is subject to the approval of the
TSX Venture Exchange, failing which the amounts owing to Mega will
be paid in cash.
Subject to the satisfaction of certain customary
closing conditions, completion of the sale of the Property is
anticipated to occur in the third quarter of 2022.
In accordance with the terms of the parties’
option agreement, Mega has until October 12, 2022 to elect to sell
to CUR its Georgetown uranium property, which is also located in
Queensland, Australia, for a purchase price of $500,000 and
contingent payment obligations of up to $1,425,000 that are
dependent upon the same monthly average uranium spot prices
referenced above.
