TORONTO, Aug. 11,
2022 /CNW/ - Galantas Gold Corporation (TSXV: GAL)
(AIM: GAL) (OTCQX: GALKF)
("Galantas" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an amending agreement
with Canaccord Genuity Corp., on behalf of itself and a syndicate
of agents including Cormark Securities Inc. and Research Capital
Corporation (together, the "Agents"), to increase the size
of the Company's previously announced proposed "best efforts"
private placement to up to 13,333,340 units of the Company
("Units") at a price of C$0.45
per Unit (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds
of up to approximately C$6 million
(the "Upsized Offering"). Each Unit will be comprised of one
common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Common
Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of
the Company (each whole common share purchase warrant, a
"Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to
purchase one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at a price of
C$0.55 per Warrant Share for a period
of 30 months following the closing of the Upsized Offering.
The Company has also granted the Agents an option, exercisable,
in whole or in part, at any time up to 48 hours prior to closing of
the Upsized Offering, which will allow the Agents to sell up to an
additional 2,000,001 Units at the Offering Price.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Upsized
Offering for exploration and development at the Joshua Target as
well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Upsized Offering is expected to close on or about
August 25, 2022, or such other date
as the Company and the Agents may agree, and is subject to certain
closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of
all necessary approvals, including the conditional acceptance of
the TSX Venture Exchange. The Upsized Offering will be made by way
of private placement in each of the provinces of Canada pursuant to applicable exemptions from
the prospectus requirements, and in such other jurisdictions, in
each case in accordance with all applicable laws, provided that no
prospectus, registration statement or other similar document is
required to be filed in such jurisdiction. The securities issued
under the Upsized Offering will be subject to a four month hold
period under applicable Canadian securities laws.
The securities offered have not been, nor will they be,
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or any state securities law, and may not be offered or
sold in the United States absent
registration or an exemption from such registration requirements.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the
securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale
would be unlawful.
