Alamos Gold Announces US$250 Million Bought Deal Financing
Toronto, Ontario (January 26, 2017) – Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX:AGI; NYSE:AGI) (“Alamos” or
the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into an amended agreement with a
syndicate of underwriters led by TD Securities Inc., BMO Capital Markets and Macquarie
Capital Markets Canada Ltd., pursuant to which they have agreed to purchase, on a bought
deal basis, 31,450,000 common shares of the Company at a price of US$7.95 per common
share (the “Offering Price”), for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately
US$250 million (the “Offering”). The Offering will now be offered publicly in all provinces of
Canada. The underwriters will also have the option, exercisable in whole or in part, at any
time up to 30 days following the closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional
4,717,500 common shares at the Offering Price to cover over-allotments, if any. In the event
that the option is exercised in its entirety, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering to the
Company will be approximately US$288 million.
The Company intends on using the net proceeds of the Offering and existing cash to repay all
of its outstanding US$315 million senior secured 7.75% high yield notes maturing 2020. Upon
completion of the Offering and application of the proceeds from the Offering, the Company will
be debt-free with approximately US$200 million in cash and cash equivalents and available-
for-sale securities, and, including borrowings available under its revolving credit facility, the
Company will have approximately US$350 million in available liquidity.
The common shares will be issued by way of a short form prospectus that will be filed with the
securities regulatory authorities in Canada and with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) in the United States under the multijurisdictional disclosure system. Alamos will file an
amended and restated preliminary short form prospectus in respect of the Offering in all
provinces of Canada and a registration statement (including the preliminary short form
prospectus) with the SEC to which this communication and the offering relate. The common
shares may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration
statement becomes effective.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or about February 9, 2017, and is subject to certain
conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the
approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.
