P2 Gold Inc. (“P2” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:PGLD)
(OTCQB:PGLDF) reports that, subject to TSX Venture Exchange (the
“Exchange”) approval, it has restructured the outstanding payment
terms for the acquisition of the Gabbs Project located on the
Walker-Lane Trend in the Fairplay Mining District of Nye County,
Nevada. (See the Company’s news releases dated February 23, 2021,
announcing the acquisition of the Gabbs Project, and May 5, 2021
and April 28, 2022, announcing amendments to the terms of the
acquisition of the Gabbs Project).
“We appreciate Waterton’s support in
restructuring the payment terms for the acquisition of our Gabbs
Project,” commented Joe Ovsenek, President and CEO of P2. “Under
the prior terms, US$8.9 million was due this May. Now, the majority
of the payments have been pushed off for over three years, giving
us time to advance Gabbs to the point where we can sell a royalty
or stream to fund the payments due to Waterton to complete the
purchase of Gabbs.”
As part of the restructuring, P2 has entered
into an amending agreement (the “Amending Agreement”) with Waterton
Nevada Splitter, LLC (“Waterton”), an affiliate of Waterton
Precious Metals Fund II Cayman, LP pursuant to which P2 will now
issue or pay to Waterton (a) 2,659,748 shares in the capital of the
Company following Exchange approval of the Amending Agreement, (b)
US$150,000 on or before December 31, 2023, (c) US$250,000 on or
before December 31, 2024, (d) US$2 million on or before December
31, 2025 and (e) US$2.4 million on or before December 31, 2026. The
Amending Agreement also contemplates, (x) if P2 raises, through the
issuance of debt or equity, in excess of C$7.5 million (excluding
flow-through funds), 10% of the funds raised will be paid to
Waterton against the longest dated milestone payment and (y) on the
sale of an interest in, or of, Gabbs, the proceeds will be paid to
Waterton up to the amount outstanding at the time.
In addition, P2 will issue to Waterton a
US$4,000,000, zero coupon convertible note (the “Note”) with a
four-year term convertible at a price of C$0.30 per share provided
that the Note cannot be converted if all payments due under the
Amending Agreement have been made at the time the Note is called
(other than if a change of control is to occur prior to repayment
of the Note). The Note can be called at any time on payment of 115%
in the first year, 130% in the second year and 150% thereafter and
is due on maturity, an event of default or a change of
control. Also, under the Note, approval by the
shareholders of the Company is required if conversion of the Note
would make Waterton a Control Person (as defined in the Exchange’s
Corporate Finance Manual).
If the Exchange fails to provide approval of the
Amending Agreement and the Note and the transactions contemplated
thereunder in accordance with applicable rules and policies of the
Exchange by March 31, 2023, the Amending Agreement and the Note
shall be deemed to be null and void.
Waterton currently has beneficial ownership of,
and control or direction over, 15,000,000 common shares of the
Company (“Shares”), representing approximately 16.9% of the issued
and outstanding Shares. Following the issuance of 2,659,748 Shares
to Waterton under the Amending Agreement, Waterton will have
beneficial ownership of, and control or direction over, 17,659,748
Shares, representing approximately 19.9% of the issued and
outstanding Shares following the restructuring. An early warning
report will be filed with the applicable securities commission in
each jurisdiction where the Company is reporting and will be
available at www.sedar.com.
