Vancouver, BC – October 29, 2024 – Vendetta Mining Corp. (VTT-TSX:V) (“Vendetta” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its news releases dated September 4, 2024 and October 2, 2024, the Company has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) whereby the Company completed the issuance of 39,500,000 units (each, a “Unit”, and collectively the “Units”) at a price of $0.01 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $395,000. The Company received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange to increase the size of the Offering from $350,000 to $395,000 shortly before closing.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share of the Company at a price of $0.05 per Common Share for a period of 36 months from the closing date of the Offering.
The Company will use the proceeds of the Offering for working capital and sustaining project fees. None of the proceeds received will be used to pay non-arm’s length parties nor will they be used to pay for investor relations activities.
Under the Offering, the Company has paid fees to eligible finders consisting of $1,750.
Michael Williams, a director of the Company (the “Related Party”), purchased or acquired direction or control over a total of 5,000,000 Units as part of the Offering. The placement to the Related Party constituted a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the directors of the Company have determined that the Related Party’s participation in the Offering will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to the Related Party nor the consideration received for such securities exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
The securities issued in the Offering will be subject to applicable hold periods imposed under applicable securities legislation, including a hold period of 4 months and one day from the date of issuance. The Offering remains subject to regulatory approval and the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
None of the securities sold under the Offering have been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no such securities may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in the United States or any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
