The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the Offering for the exploration of the Company's Elizabeth-Blackdome Project located in southern British Columbia, Canada. Tempus completed 40 drill-holes at Elizabeth during the 2022 program with assays pending on 19 holes, including the highly anticipated drill hole EZ22-20 that intersected wide zones of quartz containing visible gold. The Company is planning to release an updated NI43-101/JORC resource on the Elizabeth-Blackdome projects in early 2023.
Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act. Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2022, in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.
The FT Shares and Warrant Shares will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day from their date of issuance. A finder's fee may be paid on a portion of the proceeds from the Offering. Closing of the Offering is subject to customary closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any applicable state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the United States or "U.S. persons," as such term is defined in Regulation S promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act, absent registration or an exemption from such registration requirements.
