Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 27, 2024) - Renegade Gold Inc. (TSXV: RAGE) (OTCQX: TGLDF) (FSE: 070) ("Renegade" or the "Company") announces that it has completed a non-brokered private placement of flow-through common shares ("FT Shares") at a price of $0.40 per FT Share for gross proceeds of $1,850,000 and non flow-through units ("HD Units") at a price of $0.37 per HD Unit for additional gross proceeds of $1,151,552 (the "Placement"). Each HD Unit consists of one common share and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable to acquire one additional common share for a period of two years from the date of issue at a price of $0.60 per share.
The Company will use the gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) related to the Company's projects in Ontario. The net proceeds from the sale of the HD Units will be used for general working capital.
In consideration for arranging the Placement, the Company paid finder's fees comprised of cash payments totaling $152,687.54 and issued an aggregate of 386,419 non-transferable share purchase warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") in connection with the Placement to eligible finders. Each Finder's Warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share for a period of two years from the date of issue at a price of $0.60 per share.
All securities issued and made issuable under the Placement are subject to a hold period expiring October 27, 2024.
A company controlled by two directors of the Company acquired 200,000 Units under the Placement for a total purchase price of $74,000. Accordingly, the Placement is to that extent a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any securities issued to, or the consideration paid by such persons, exceed $2,500,000.
