In order to fund the exploration program on the Property and meet the CLR by November 20, 2017, the Company has entered into two arms‐ length shareholder loan agreements dated November 14, 2017 (the “Loan Agreements”).
The lenders have agreed to loan the Company the total sum of $175,000, for a period of six months at an interest rate of five percent (5%) payable on May 14, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”), subject to Exchange approval. The Company has agreed to issue Promissory Notes to the lenders as evidence of the indebtedness of the loan. The loans to the Company are conditional upon Exchange approval of the Property transaction and the Company’s ability to meet CLR.
The loan may, in whole or in part, be prepaid without bonus or penalty before the Maturity Date, at the consent of the lenders, and pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreements. Interest accrued on the amount prepaid shall be paid at the time of any prepayment.
Also in order to better finance the Company, the Board of Directors have approved and authorized a consolidation of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares on a five old shares for one new share (5:1) basis, consolidating its 33,477,704 currently outstanding shares to 6,695,540 shares.
The Company will not be issuing fractional shares as a result of the consolidation. Instead, all fractional shares equal or greater to one‐half will be rounded to the next whole share. The Company’s outstanding share purchase warrants will be adjusted upon completion of the consolidation. The Company does not intend to change its name or seek a new stock trading symbol from the Exchange in connection with the consolidation. The Company’s shares will continue to trade under the symbol “CPV”. The consolidation remains subject to final acceptance by the Exchange.
A letter of transmittal will be sent to the registered shareholders providing instructions to surrender the share certificates evidencing their pre‐consolidated common shares for replacement certificates of Copper Creek Gold Corp. representing the number of post‐consolidated common shares they are entitled to as a result of the consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate representing the pre‐consolidated common shares will be deemed to represent the number of post‐consolidated common shares of Copper Creek Gold Corp. that the holder thereof is entitled to as a result of the consolidation.
The Board plans to reduce the overall debt associated with the Company and will pursue equity financings in the near future.
