The Offering will comprise the sale of units ("Units") at a price of $0.02 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company ("Common Share") and one full non-transferable Common Share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to acquire one full Common Share at a price of $0.07 at any time within 12 (twelve) months from issuance, and thereafter, at a price of $0.10 until the expiry of two years from issuance, subject to the accelerated expiry provisions described below.
Finder's fees equal to 8% of the gross proceeds raised, in addition to the issuance of a number of finder warrants ("Finder Warrants") equal to 8% of the number of Units issued, shall be paid to finders or other third parties (a "Finder") upon closing. Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder to acquire an additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.07 at any time within 12 (twelve) months of the closing of the Offering, subject to the accelerated expiry described below.
The Offering is being made pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange Bulletin which provides for temporary relief from certain pricing requirements, and accordingly, the Offering is subject to certain conditions, as well as approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and any other applicable securities legislation. The securities comprising the Units will be offered to all Qualified Purchasers resident of any Canadian Province, in reliance upon exemptions from the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities legislation. The securities issued upon the closing of the Offering will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of issue, including any other re-sale restrictions imposed by applicable securities regulatory authorities. Insiders of Frontline may, subject to regulatory approval, participate in up to 25% of the Offering.
If, commencing four months after the closing of the Offering, the common shares of Frontline trade at or above $0.19 on the TSX Venture Exchange for a minimum of 20 consecutive trading days, then Frontline shall have the right to give notice of early expiry of the Warrants. Early expiry shall accelerate and be automatically amended to be the 30th day after the date on which Frontline gives notice to the Warrant holder of such acceleration.
The proceeds from the Offering will be used for property option payments, exploration expenditures and general and administrative costs.
