Sailfish Closes Oversubscribed Rights Offering
TORTOLA, British Virgin Islands, Sept. 3, 2020 /CNW/ - Sailfish Royalty Corp. (TSXV: FISH) (the "Company"
or "Sailfish") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced and oversubscribed rights
offering (the "Rights Offering") which expired on September 1, 2020, raising total aggregate gross proceeds
of $18,000,000 and representing 100% of the total rights offered.
Upon closing, the Company issued a total of 18,000,000 common shares of the Company (each a "Common
Share") under the Rights Offering at a price of $1.00 per Common Share. An aggregate of 16,679,132
Common Shares were issued under the basic subscription privilege and an aggregate of 1,320,868 Common
Shares were distributed under the additional subscription privilege. To the knowledge of the Company, no
person became an insider as a result of the Rights Offering. The Company did not pay any fees or commissions
in connection with the distribution of securities in the Rights Offering.
As previously announced on July 27, 2020, in connection with the Rights Offering, the Company entered into a
standby purchase agreement (the "Standby Purchase Agreement") with Wexford Catalyst Trading
Limited ("WCT") and Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited ("WST" and with WCT, the "Wexford Funds"). As a
result of the exercise of the basic subscription privilege and additional subscription privilege by the holders of
rights (including by the Wexford Funds in respect of the basic subscription privilege, as described below), the
Rights Offering was fully subscribed. Accordingly, the Wexford Funds did not acquire any Common Shares
under the Standby Purchase Agreement.
As of the closing date, 75,669,178 Common Shares are issued and outstanding, reflecting the 18,000,000
Common Shares issued pursuant to the Rights Offering and the repurchase of 506,800 Common Shares under
the Company's most recently announced normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") since the announcement of the
Rights Offering.
