Eureka Initiates Review of Strategic Alternatives and Will Apply for Waiver of Private Placement Pricing Policy
Eureka Initiates Review of Strategic Alternatives and Will
Apply for Waiver of Private Placement Pricing Policy
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 27, 2017) - Eureka Resources Inc. (TSXV: EUK) ("Eureka" or the
"Company") announced today that it is commencing a review of strategic alternatives focused on maximizing shareholder value.
Potential strategic alternatives that may be explored or evaluated by Eureka include business combinations, joint ventures or
other strategic transactions. The Company has not made a decision to pursue any specific transaction or other strategic
alternative, and there can be no assurance that this process will result in any such transaction. Eureka also confirms there is no
material fact or material change related to the Company which has not been generally disclosed.
To further this corporate objective, Eureka intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of up to 7.0 million common
shares of the Company at a price of $0.025 per common share for gross proceeds of up to $175,000 (the "Offering"). Eureka
will make an application to the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") for a waiver to the private placement pricing as the proposed
subscription price is below the TSXV's $0.05 minimum pricing requirement.
A portion of the Offering may be made pursuant to the existing shareholder exemption (the "Existing Shareholder Exemption")
contained in Multilateral CSA Notice 45-313 and the various corresponding blanket orders and rules of participating
jurisdictions. In addition to conducting the Offering pursuant to the Existing Shareholder Exemption, the Offering will also be
conducted pursuant to other available exemptions, including sales to accredited investors and close personal friends and
business associates of directors and officers of the Company.
The Company has set November 24, 2017 as the record date for the purpose of determining existing shareholders entitled to
purchase common shares pursuant to the Existing Shareholder Exemption. The aggregate acquisition cost to a subscriber
under the Existing Shareholder Exemption cannot exceed $15,000 unless that subscriber has obtained advice obtained from a
registered investment dealer regarding the suitability of the investment. Subscribers purchasing common shares in the Offering
under the Existing Shareholder Exemption will need to represent in writing that they meet certain requirements of the Existing
Shareholder Exemption, including that they were, on or before the record date, a shareholder of the Company (and still are a
shareholder). Unless the Company determines to increase the gross proceeds of the Offering and receives TSXV approval for
such an increase, if subscriptions received for the Offering based on all available exemptions exceed the maximum Offering
amount of $175,000, common shares sold under the terms of the Offering will be allocated at the discretion of the Company.
The Offering is expected to close on or about December 15, 2017, and is subject to TSXV final acceptance. All securities
issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance under applicable Canadian
securities laws. Eureka may pay finder's fees on certain of the gross proceeds raised from the sales of common shares
pursuant to the Offering, subject to the approval of the TSXV.
The Company intends to allocate the net proceeds from the Offering (subject to the deduction of any applicable finder's fees) as
follows:
Legal and accounting fees - $25,000;
Regulatory fees - $10,000;
General liabilities - $50,000;
Office rent & communication expenses - $5,000;
Transfer agent fees - $5,000;
Annual General Meeting expenses - $5,000
Accrued management and administrative fees - $25,000;
Working capital - $50,000.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the securities in the United States.
The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S.
Securities Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons unless
registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
As part of Eureka's new strategic objectives, the Company has terminated its option to acquire the CKN property located near
Williams Lake, British Columbia.
