X1 Closes First Tranche of Special Warrant Financing THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
VANCOUVER, BC – August 7, 2024 – X1 Entertainment Group Inc. (CSE:XONE; OTCQX: XOEEF; FSE: QN9) (“X1” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”). The Company issued 8,340,000 special warrants (the “Special Warrants”) at a price of $0.25 per Special Warrant for gross proceeds of $2,085,000 (the “First Tranche”). The Company intends to close a second tranche of the Offering in the near future.
Each Special Warrant will automatically convert, without the payment of any additional consideration, into one unit of the Company (a “Unit”) on the date that is three business days (the “Conversion Date”) following the satisfaction of the following conditions (together, the “Conversion Conditions”):
(a) the passing of resolutions of shareholders of the Company authorizing and approving each of the Company’s change of business to a mineral exploration company (the “COB”), and the Offering;
(b) receipt by the Issuer of conditional approval for the COB from the Canadian Securities Exchange; and
(c) the closing of the Company’s acquisition of a 100% interest in the Manson Bay Project from SKKR Exploration Inc. (the “Transaction”).
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one additional Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.30 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance.
The gross proceeds of the Offering, including the First Tranche (the “Escrowed Proceeds”), will be held in escrow on behalf of the subscribers by the Company, in a segregated interest bearing account. If the Conversion Date does not occur on or before 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the date that is 120 days after the closing of the Offering (the “Release Deadline”), the Special Warrants will immediately become null, void and of no further force or effect and the Escrowed Proceeds will be returned to the holders of Special Warrants in an amount per Special Warrant equal to: (i) the subscriber’s aggregate offering price paid for the Special Warrants; and (ii) a pro rata share of interest, if any, actually earned on the Escrowed Proceeds to the date of the Release Deadline (less any applicable withholding taxes).
As the number of securities issuable in the Concurrent Financing is more than 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares, the Company is required to obtain shareholder approval for the Concurrent Financing pursuant to Section 4.6(2)(a) of CSE Policy 4
- Corporate Governance, Security Holder Approvals, and Miscellaneous Provisions. The
Company will be seeking shareholder approval for the Offering at its annual general and special meeting to be held on August 14, 2024.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, including the First Tranche, for
(i) expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction and COB, (ii) completion of the work program on the Manson Bay Property, (iii) consulting, management, and director fees, (iv) marketing and investor relations, and (v) general and administrative expenses.
In connection with closing of the First Tranche, the Company incurred cash finder’s fees in the amount of $58,500 to certain eligible finders, and issued the finders an aggregate of 234,000 nontransferable Share purchase warrants (the “Finder’s Warrants”), with each Finder’s Warrant exercisable into a Share (a “Finder’s Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.30 per Finder’s Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The securities issued pursuant to the First Tranche have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons in the absence of U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in the United States or in any other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
