ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, May 25, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - Fieldex
Exploration Inc. (TSXV: FLX) (Frankfurt: F7E1) ("Fieldex")
is pleased to announce that it has held a closing of a private
placement by issuing 7,142,857 units at a price of $0.07 per unit, for gross proceeds to Fieldex of
$500,000. Each of the units is
comprised of one common share and one common share purchase
warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one
additional common share of Fieldex at a price of $0.10 until May 22,
2022. Fieldex will use the proceeds from the closing of the
private placement for working capital purposes.
In connection with the private placement, Fieldex paid a cash
commission to Raymond James Ltd in an amount of $3,920. In addition, Fieldex issued finders'
options to Raymond James Ltd entitling it to acquire up to an
aggregate of 56,000 additional common shares of Fieldex at a price
of $0.10 per share until May 22,
2022.
As a result of the closing of the private placement, there are
32,937,040 common shares of Fieldex issued and outstanding on a
non-diluted basis. Under applicable securities legislation and the
policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the securities issued in the
private placement are subject to a four-month hold period, expiring
on September 23, 2020.
One director and officer of Fieldex (the "Insider") purchased
117,857 units for a total consideration of $8,249.99. The issuance of units to the Insider
constitutes a related party transaction but is exempt from the
formal valuation and minority approval requirements of Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") as Fieldex' securities are not
listed on any stock exchange identified in Section 5.5(b) of MI
61-101 and neither the fair market value of the units issued to the
Insider, nor the fair market value of the entire private placement,
exceeds 25% of Fieldex's market capitalization. Fieldex did not
file a material change report with respect to the participation of
the Insider at least 21 days prior to the closing of the private
placement as the insider participation was not determined at that
time.
In other news, as Fieldex last obtained approval of its "rolling
stock-option plan" (the "Plan") at its annual and special meeting
of its shareholders on June 22, 2016,
it's Plan was converted, on June 22,
2017, from a "rolling stock option plan" to a "fixed-amount
plan" in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, pursuant to
which a maximum of 1,566,645 common shares were reserved for
issuance pursuant to the exercise of options under the Plan. This
conversion was approved by the Board of Directors of Fieldex on
May 15, 2020. The amendments to the
Plan have been conditionally approved by the TSX Venture
Exchange.
Following the closing of the aforementioned private placement,
Fieldex announces that on May 25,
2020, the Board of Directors of Fieldex amended the Plan so
as to provide that the maximum number of common shares reserved for
issuance under the Plan pursuant to the exercise of options was
3,293,704 common shares, representing 10% of the issued and
outstanding common shares of Fieldex on May
25, 2020. The total number of common shares issuable under
the Plan as a result of such amendment represents an increase of
1,727,059 common shares. The second amendments to the Plan are
subject to conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
