Each unit, at a price of $0.35 per unit, is comprised of one (1) common share of Azimut and one-half (½) of one (1) common share purchase warrant, each whole common share purchase warrant (each, a "warrant") entitling its holder to subscribe for one (1) common share of Azimut at a price of $0.46 over an 18-month period.

The warrants are subject to the terms of an acceleration clause. If at any time after four (4) month and one (1) day following the closing date, the closing price of the common shares of Azimut on the TSX Venture Exchange is equal or greater than $0.65 for 15 consecutive trading days, Azimut will have the right to notify the warrant holders of its intention to force the exercise of the warrants, and upon receipt of such notice, the warrant holders will have 30 days to exercise the warrants, failing which the warrants will automatically expire.

On October 10, 2019, Azimut closed a second tranche of the private placement, representing gross proceeds of $350,000, and issued a total of 999,998 units to the following Québec-based institutional funds:

  • Fonds de solidarité FTQ
  • Fonds régionaux de solidarité FTQ Nord-du-Québec.

The proceeds will be used to conduct exploration work on the 100%-owned Elmer Property (Au-Ag-Cu-Zn) and on the Pikwa Property (Au-Cu), both located in the James Bay region of Québec, to carry out other exploration work, and for business development and general corporate purposes.
