Lydian Announces US$109 Million Proceeds From Closing of Previously Announced Private Placements and Exchange of Subscription Receipts

26.05.2016 | 15:04 Uhr | Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 26, 2016) -

Not for distribution to U.S. news wire services or dissemination in the United States.

Lydian International Ltd. (TSX:LYD) ("Lydian" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its private placements (the "Private Placements") with Orion Mine Finance ("Orion") and Resource Capital Fund VI L.P. ("RCF"), previously announced by the Company on March 14, 2016, for aggregate gross proceeds of US$80,000,000.

In addition, concurrent with completion of the Private Placements, each of the Company's outstanding subscription receipts was automatically exchanged for one Lydian ordinary share and three-quarters of one ordinary share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one ordinary share of Lydian at a price of C$0.36 for a period of 18 months from their date of issuance. The Subscription Receipts will be halted from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and de-listed after markets close today. The Warrants are expected to begin trading today on the TSX under the ticker symbol "LYD.WT". An aggregate of 132,250,000 ordinary shares and 99,187,500 Warrants will be issued upon exchange of the subscription receipts. Gross proceeds from the previously announced offering of subscription receipts of C$38,352,500 were released to the Company today.

Howard Stevenson, Lydian's President and CEO, commented, "With receipt of the amended Mining Right earlier this week and now the funding received with today's events, we are on path to begin construction as planned this summer. We are thankful to our shareholders for their participation and support throughout this process. We are also pleased to have RCF and Orion as significant participants in the financing arrangements for Amulsar and the support of their respective teams. We look forward to their contributions to our success."

An aggregate of 349,066,666 ordinary shares were issued pursuant to the Private Placements at a price of C$0.30 per share (converted into US dollars at rate of 1.3090 Canadian dollars per US dollar). In addition, pursuant to the credit agreement entered into by the Company with Orion and RCF in connection with the Amulsar project financing, the Company also issued warrants to Orion and RCF to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 ordinary shares at a price per share of C$0.39 for a three year term. Following completion of the Private Placements, Orion, through Orion Co IV (ED) Limited, will hold 109,083,333 ordinary shares and warrants to purchase an additional 4,391,892 ordinary shares (together representing 16.9% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares on a partially diluted basis) and RCF will hold 243,183,333 ordinary shares and warrants to purchase an additional 608,108 ordinary shares (together representing 36.6% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares on a partially diluted basis), inclusive of 3,200,000 ordinary shares held by RCF prior to the Private Placements. The 3,200,000 ordinary shares held by RCF represented 1.7% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares prior to the Private Placements and the exchange of the Company's outstanding subscription receipts.
