Scottie Resources Corp . ( TSX.V: SCOT ) (" Scottie " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought deal private placement financing pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated June 1, 2021 (the " Underwriting Agreement ") with Stifel GMP, raising aggregate gross proceeds of C$5,643,000 (the " Brokered Offering "). Stifel GMP acted as sole underwriter pursuant to the terms of the Offering, under which the Company issued 20,900,000 flow-through common shares of the Company (the " FT Shares ") at a price of C$0.27 per FT Share (the " Issue Price "). The Company is also pleased to announced that it has completed a concurrent non-brokered private placement (the " Non-Brokered Offering ", and together with the Brokered Offering, the " Offerings ") of 5,100,000 FT Shares at the Issue Price for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,377,000. In connection with the Offerings, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $7,020,000.
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, Stifel GMP received a cash commission of $338,580, and was issued 1,254,000 compensation warrants (" Compensation Warrants "). Stifel GMP also acted as financial advisor to the Company in connection with the Non-Brokered Offering, pursuant to which it received a financial advisory fee of $52,020 and was issued 153,000 Compensation Warrants. In connection with the Non-Brokered Offering, the Company also paid a cash finder's fee of $30,600 and issued 153,000 Compensation Warrants to an arm's length finder. Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share (a " Compensation Warrant Share ") of the Company at a price of C$0.25 per common share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the FT Shares will be used to incur Canadian exploration expenses that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) on the Company's properties in British Columbia (the " Qualifying Expenditures "). The Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date no later than December 31, 2021.
