Quimbaya Gold Inc. (CSE: QIM) (" Quimbaya " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that the Company has completed non-brokered private placement (the " Placement ") of 2,171,665 units of the Company (each, a " Unit ") at a price of $0.30 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $651,500 . Each Unit is comprised of one common share (a " Common Share ") of the Company and one Common Share purchase warrant (a " Warrant "), each such Warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional Common Share for a period of two years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.40 per Common Share. The net proceeds of the Offering will be used by the Company for exploration and working capital.
All securities issued in connection with the Placement are subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada .
The Company has issued an aggregate of 1,046,666 Units pursuant to the Placement, to Alexandre P. Boivin (President, CEO and director of Quimbaya) and Pietro JL Solari (director of Quimbaya) who are considered "related parties" of the Company (the " Interested Parties "), in each case constituting, to that extent, a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (" MI 61-101 "). The Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the participation of the Interested Parties in the Placement in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Placement nor the securities issued in connection therewith, in so far as the Placement involves the Interested Parties, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The securities referred in this news release have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the " U.S. Securities Act "), or any U.S. state securities laws, and such securities may not be offered or sold within the United States or to any U.S. person absent registration under U.S. federal and state securities laws or an applicable exemption from such U.S. registration requirements. "United States" and "U.S. person" have the respective meanings ascribed to them in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.
On December 11th, 2024 , the Company announced a first closing of 653,332 Units of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of $196,000 .
