Visionary Gold Corp. Announces Closing of
First Tranche of Non-Brokered Private
Placement
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 15, 2022) - Visionary Gold Corp. (TSXV: VIZ)
("
Visionary
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche (the "
First
Tranche
") of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "
Offering
"), issuing
27,654,000 units of the Company (each, a "
Unit
") at a price of $0.05 per Unit (the "
Offering Price
") for
gross proceeds of $1,382,700.
Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (each, a "
Unit Share
") and one half of
one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "
Warrant
"). Each Warrant entitles the
holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company (each, a "
Warrant Share
") at a price of
$0.10 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Offering.
The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund the Company's 2022 exploration program and for
general working capital purposes. The Company will provide additional information regarding closing of
a second tranche once available. The closing of the second tranche is subject to receipt of all necessary
regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "
TSXV
"). The Unit
Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day in
accordance with applicable securities laws.
Wes Adams, Visionary's Chief Executive Officer and a Director, subscribed for 7,000,000 Units in the
First Tranche pursuant to the Offering. The Subscription of Mr. Adams constitutes a "related party
transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -
Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special
Transactions
("
MI 61-101
"). The Company intends to rely on exemptions from the valuation and the
minority approval requirements of MI 61-101 provided for in subsections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-
101, respectively, as the fair market value of the subject matter of, and the consideration to be paid in the
Offering, in relation to Mr. Adams, does not represent more than 25% of the Company's market
capitalization, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The participation by Mr. Adams in the
Offering has been approved by directors of the Company who are independent in connection with such
transactions. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected
closing of the First Tranche, as the details of the Offering were not finalized until immediately prior to the
closing and the Company wished to close the First Tranche as soon as practicable for sound business
reasons.
