(OTCQB: LMSQF) announces that it has closed its previously announced upsized non-brokered
private placement (the “Financing”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.3 million through the
issuance of 8,666,667 units in the capital of the Company (each a “Unit”) at a subscription price
of $0.15 per Unit.
Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of Latin Metals (each, a “Share”) and one-
half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder
thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $0.25 per Share for a period of 24 months from the
closing of the Financing.
In connection with the closing of the Financing, the Company paid finder’s fees on a portion of
the Financing to Leede Jones Gable Inc. ($30,240 cash and 201,600 finder’s warrants), Haywood
Securities Inc. ($8,512 cash and 56,746 finder’s warrants) and PI Financial Corp. ($2,100 cash and
14,000 finder’s warrants), consisting of a cash commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds
raised by each finder and finder’s warrants equal to 7% of the corresponding number of Units
issued. Each finder’s warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of Latin
Metals for $0.15 for a period of 12 months from the closing of the Financing.
All securities issued by the Company pursuant to the Financing are subject to a hold period of
four months and one day in Canada.
Certain officers, directors and a control person of the Company (collectively, the “Related
Parties”) participated in the Financing pursuant to the terms described above, purchasing in
aggregate 4,776,000 Units. These constitute related party transactions pursuant to Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-
101”). The Company relied on Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from
the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements, respectively, as at the
closing of the Financing, neither the fair market value of the Units issued in connection with the
Financing, nor the fair market value of the consideration received by the Company for same,
insofar as it involved the Related Parties, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
The proceeds of the Financing are intended to fund ongoing exploration at the Company’s
mineral projects in Argentina and Peru and for general working capital.
