Osisko Development Closes First Tranche of Previously Announced Non-Brokered Private Placement for US$24.2 Million
01 Oktober 2024 - 11:05PM
Osisko Development Corp. (NYSE: ODV, TSXV: ODV)
("
Osisko Development" or the
"
Company") is pleased to announce the successful
closing of the first tranche of its previously announced
non-brokered private placement, announced on September 4, 2024,
pursuant to which the Company issued 13,426,589 units of the
Company (the "
Units") at a price of US$1.80 per
Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately US$24.2 million
(the "
Offering").
The Company anticipates closing a second tranche
of the Offering in early October 2024 to accommodate additional
interest for the Units, subject to certain conditions including,
but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company (each, a "Common Share") and one Common
Share purchase warrant of the Company (each, a
"Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder
thereof to purchase one additional Common Share (each, a
"Warrant Share") at a price of US$3.00 per Warrant
Share on or prior to October 1, 2029.
Certain insiders of the Company (collectively,
the "Insiders"), including all of the directors of
the Company, have agreed to purchase an aggregate of 1,056,555
Units pursuant to the Offering. Participation by the Insiders in
the Offering is a "related party transaction" for purposes of
Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security
Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The
Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal
valuation or minority shareholder approval in connection with the
Insiders' participation in the Offering pursuant to Sections 5.5(a)
and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any
securities issued to, nor the consideration paid by, the Insiders
exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Company
did not file a material change report 21 days prior to closing of
the Offering, as the Insiders' participation had not been confirmed
at that time and the Company wished to close the transaction as
soon as practicable for sound business reasons.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of
the Offering towards the advancement of its Cariboo Gold Project
and Tintic Project, and for general corporate purposes. All
securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a hold
period expiring four months and one day from the date of issue
pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering
remains subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. No
finder's fee or commissions were payable in connection with the
Offering.
This news release does not constitute an offer
to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in the
United States or any other jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful. No securities may be
offered or sold in the United States or in any other jurisdiction
in which such offer or sale would be unlawful absent registration
under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, or an exemption therefrom or
qualification under the securities laws of such other jurisdiction
or an exemption therefrom.
