Platinum Group Metals Announces Private Placement of US$20 Million 6 7/8% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2022

28.06.2017 | 4:58 Uhr | Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA--(Marketwired - Jun 27, 2017) - Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (TSX:PTM)(NYSE MKT:PLG) ("Platinum Group" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into purchase agreements with certain institutional investors to issue and sell US$20 million aggregate principal amount of 6 7/8% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2022 (the "Notes") pursuant to applicable U.S. and Canadian private placement exemptions. The sale of the Notes is expected to be completed on June 30, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 6 7/8% per annum, payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2018, in cash or at the election of the Company, in common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") or a combination of cash and Common Shares, and will mature on July 1, 2022, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The Notes will be convertible at any time at the option of the holder, and may be settled, at the Company's election, in cash, Common Shares, or a combination of cash and Common Shares. If any Notes are converted on or prior to the three and one half year anniversary of the issuance date, the holder of the Notes will also be entitled to receive an amount equal to the remaining interest payments on the converted Notes to the three and one half year anniversary of the issuance date, discounted by 2%, payable in Common Shares. The initial conversion rate of the Notes will be 1,001.1112 Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately US$0.9989 per Common Share, representing a conversion premium of approximately 15% above the NYSE MKT closing sale price for the Company's Common Shares of US$0.8686 per share on June 27, 2017. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. The Notes will be the Company's unsecured senior subordinated obligations and will be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of the Company's existing and future senior indebtedness pursuant to the indenture governing the Notes. Within six months after the closing date of the sale of the Notes, the Company will cause a prospectus and a registration statement to be filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as applicable, to permit the resale of the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and cause such prospectus and registration statement to become and remain effective.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes for working capital at the Maseve Mine; for work on the definitive feasibility study on the Waterberg Project, which is now underway; for general and administrative expenses; and for general working capital purposes.

The Notes were offered and sold to certain institutional investors in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act").

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall it constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. The Notes and the Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Notes have not been registered, and the Notes will not be registered, under the U.S. Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, and in Canada will be subject to a four month restricted period from the issue date of the Notes.

The Company will apply to list the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the NYSE MKT LLC. For the purposes of TSX approval, the Company intends to rely on the exemption set forth in Section 602.1 of the TSX Company Manual, which provides that the TSX will not apply its standards to certain transactions involving eligible interlisted issuers.
