Helius Minerals Limited (TSXV: HHH,OTC:HHHXF) ("Helius" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has engaged 1001620184 Ontario Inc., carrying on business as SMG Capital Partners ("SMG"), to provide corporate communications and investor relations support services (the "Engagement"), subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").
SMG will assist with Helius' corporate social media channels, principally X, LinkedIn and YouTube, opt-in email communications and subscriber management, management-approved content creation and repurposing, and communications planning and strategy. Helius will retain control of its corporate channels and approval of public-facing content.
Engagement Terms
The engagement has an initial term of three months, starting when services commence with Helius' written authorization following completion of applicable regulatory requirements. It will then continue automatically on a month-to-month basis at the same monthly fee. Either party may prevent renewal by giving at least 14 days' written notice before the end of the initial term or the applicable subsequent monthly period. The agreement also provides for earlier termination for material breach or specified regulatory grounds.
Helius will pay US$2,850 per month, plus applicable taxes, for anticipated professional fees of US$8,550, plus applicable taxes, over the initial three-month term. The initial US$8,550 fee is payable upfront within five business days after Helius' written confirmation that the required regulatory steps have been completed and before services commence. Thereafter, monthly fees are payable in advance at the beginning of each monthly service period. Total professional fees will depend on the number of monthly renewals. These fees are to be funded from the Company's general working capital.
No services will commence, and no payment will be remitted, until Exchange acceptance has been obtained and all applicable regulatory steps have been completed. No fees accrue before the commencement date.
No shares, options, warrants or other securities are granted or promised under the agreement. Any future security-based compensation would be limited to separately documented stock options permitted under applicable Exchange policies, subject to required approvals and disclosure.
