The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used by the Company for the development, expansion and working capital requirements of the Mercedes and South Arturo mines and the McCoy-Cove project, and for general corporate and working capital purposes and may also be used to reduce indebtedness under Premier’s revolving term credit facility.
The Offering is expected to close on or about February 28, 2020 and is subject to Premier receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange. Closing of the Offering is conditional upon the concurrent closing of the proposed transaction with Orion described in the Company’s press release issued on February 11, 2020 and as described in the preliminary prospectus.
The Offered Shares will be offered by way of a short form prospectus in all of the provinces of Canada, except Quebec, and may also be offered by way of private placement in the United States.
The Offered Shares have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, within the United States, or to or for the account or benefit of U.S. persons unless the Offered Shares are registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, nor is it a solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state in the United States in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
