Rainy Mountain Announces Loans, Consolidation and Board Changes
West Vancouver, British Columbia – August 16, 2019 – Rainy Mountain Royalty Corp. (the “Company” or “Rainy Mountain”) is pleased to announce the Company has entered into two arms‐length loan agreements dated August 14, 2019 (the “Loan Agreements”).
Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, the lenders have agreed to provide the Company an aggregate credit facility of $200,000 (the “Facility”), for a period of 12 months from the last advance made thereunder at an interest rate of ten percent (10%), subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”). The Facility may, in whole or in part, be prepaid without bonus or penalty. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears commencing on September 30, 2019.
As consideration for providing the Facility, the lenders will receive, an aggregate of 3,555,555 pre-consolidation common shares (each a “Bonus Share”). The Bonus Shares will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance. The Bonus Shares are subject to TSXV and regulatory approval and the completion of the Consolidation (as defined below). The funds available from the Facility will be used for accounts payable.
In order to better finance the Company and as a condition of the Loan Agreements, the Board of Directors have approved and authorized a consolidation of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares on a ten old shares for one new share (10:1) basis (the “Consolidation”), consolidating its 54,445,963 currently outstanding shares to 5,444,596 shares.
The Company will not be issuing fractional shares as a result of the Consolidation. Instead, all fractional shares equal or greater to one‐half will be rounded to the next whole share. The Company’s outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants will be adjusted upon completion of the Consolidation.
The Company does not intend to change its name or seek a new stock trading symbol from the Exchange in connection with the consolidation. The Company’s shares will continue to trade under the symbol “RMO”. The post-Consolidation common shares of the Company will have a new CUSIP and ISIN number. The consolidation remains subject to final acceptance by the TSXV.
A letter of transmittal will be sent to the registered shareholders providing instructions to surrender the share certificates evidencing their pre‐consolidated common shares for replacement certificates representing the number of post‐consolidated common shares they are entitled to as a result of the Consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate representing the pre‐consolidated common shares will be deemed to represent the number of post‐consolidated common shares of the Company that the holder thereof is entitled to as a result of the Consolidation.
