NEWS RELEASE
ZTR ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF OVERSUBSCRIBED FEDERAL GOLD $8,000,000
SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPT FINANCING
September 30, 2020 – Vancouver, British Columbia – ZTR Acquisition Corp. (TSXV: ZTR.H)
(the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Federal Gold Corp. (“Federal Gold”) has closed its
previously announced non-brokered private placement financing (the “Financing”) of 20,000,000
subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipts”) at a price of $0.40 per Subscription Receipt,
for gross proceeds of $8,000,000. The closing of the Financing is a condition to completing the
previously announced amalgamation of Federal Gold with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the terms of the definitive amalgamation
agreement entered into with Federal Gold (the “Definitive Agreement”) (see news release of the
Company dated September 28, 2020).
The proceeds of the Financing (the “Escrowed Funds”)have been deposited in escrow, pending
the Company receiving all applicable regulatory approvals and completing the Business
Combination (the “Escrow Conditions ”). Upon satisfaction of the Escrow Conditions,
immediately prior to the completion of the Business Combination, each Subscription Receipt will
automatically convert into one common share of Federal Gold (the “Conversion Shares”) for no
additional consideration and the Conversion Shares will be exchanged for common shares of the
Company (the “Consideration Shares”)on a one-for-one basis pursuant to the terms of the
Definitive Agreement. If the Business Combination is not completed on or before December 31,
2020, the Escrowed Funds will be returned to the subscribers and the Subscription Receipts will
be void and be of no further effect or value.
In consideration for their services in connection with the Financing, upon satisfaction of the
Escrow Conditions, certain arms-length finders will be paid aggregate cash commissions of
$402,390. In addition, as further consideration, upon satisfaction of the Escrow Conditions,
Federal Gold has agreed to issue to the finders an aggregate of 1,005,975 finder warrants (the
“Finders Warrants”). Upon completion of the Business Combination, each Finders Warrant will
entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share in the capital of the Company (the
“Common Shares ”) at an exercise price of $0.40 for a period of 12 months following the
satisfaction of the Escrow Conditions.
The Subscription Receipts are subject to an indefinite hold period, which commences on the date
of the issuance of the Subscription Receipts, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, any Consideration Shares issued in exchange for
the Conversion Shares, as well as the Finders Warrants and any Common Shares issuable on
conversion of the Finders Warrants, are not expected to be subject to restrictions on resale.
The net proceeds of the Financing, once released from Escrow upon satisfaction of the Escrow
Conditions (and completion of the Business Combination), are intended to be used by the
Company for the exploration of the mineral properties currently controlled by Federal Gold,
expansion of the Company’s operations and for general corporate purposes.
