First Tellurium Announces 2nd Tranche Close of Private Placement
Vancouver, BC, Canada, December 9, 2024 – First Tellurium Corp. (CSE: FTEL) (the “Company” or “First
Tellurium”), announces that it has closed the second tranche (the “Second Tranche”) of a non-brokered
private placement (the “Offering”) previously announced on October 28, 2024. Under the Second
Tranche, the Company has issued 931,818 units (the “Units”) for gross proceeds of $102,500 and
2,500,000 flow-through common shares for gross proceeds of $350,000. Each Unit consists of one
common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at a price of $0.15 for a period of
two years.
The remaining balance of securities available for sale under the Offering will remain open until
December 31, 2024.
The Company paid finders’ fees of $17,500 in connection with the second tranche closing to arm’s-
length parties.
Tyrone Docherty, President, CEO and a director of the Company (the “Insider”), participated in the
Offering through the purchase by his private company, Docherty Capital Corp., of 550,000 Units for
gross proceeds of $60,500. Participation by the Insider in the Offering is considered a “related party
transaction” pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal
valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the Insider's participation in the
Offering in reliance of sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, on the basis that
participation in the Offering by the Insider did not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the
Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report at least 21 days
prior to the closing of the Offering as participation of the Insider had not been confirmed at that time.
Mr. Docherty’s share purchase equals 14% of the second tranche funding.
All securities issued under this Second Tranche closing are subject to a hold period expiring April 10,
2024, in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the CSE.
Proceeds received in connection with the Offering will be utilized for exploration and other costs
associated with First Tellurium’s Deer Horn property and the Colorado Klondike property, as well as for
general working capital purposes.
