The Offering was made through a syndicate of agents co-lead by Mackie Research Capital Corporation and Canaccord Genuity Corp., and including Cormark Securities Inc., Eight Capital, Industrial Alliance Securities Inc., and PI Financial Corp. (collectively, the “Agents“).
The net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Additional Debenture Units are intended to be used for ongoing construction and development of its Nevada production facility, working capital and general corporate purposes.

Each Additional Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $2.60 on or before March 28, 2022.
The Company paid the Agents a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Additional Debenture Units and issued to the Agents additional 151,200 non-transferable warrants of the Company, each such Broker Warrant exercisable into a common share in the capital of the Company at an exercise price of equal to the Conversion Price per Common Share exercisable at any time up to March 28, 2022.

The Offering has been made pursuant to a short-form prospectus filed in each of the provinces of Canada (except Québec), and otherwise by private placement exemption in those jurisdictions where the Offering can lawfully be made, including the United States. Neither the Additional Debentures Units (and the Additional Debentures and the Additional Warrants forming part of the Debenture Units) have been or will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act“), or any state securities laws, and such securities may therefore not be offered or sold in the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a person in the United States or a U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act) absent registration or an exemption from the registration requirements including to Institutional Accredited Investors pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D of the U.S. Securities Act. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the Debenture Units in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. A copy of the short form prospectus dated March 22, 2019 is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
