06 Mai 2021 - 1:00PM
Corvus Gold Inc. (“Corvus” or the “Company”) - (TSX: KOR, NASDAQ:
KOR) announces it has entered into a USD $20M loan agreement with
AngloGold Ashanti North America Inc. (“AngloGold”) to fund the
ongoing permitting and pre-development work at the Company’s North
Bullfrog project as well as ongoing exploration at its Mother Lode
and Lynnda Strip projects. Highlights of the agreement for the USD
$20M unsecured loan (the “Loan”) include:
- A fixed interest rate of 1.10725%
with interest beginning 180 days after Loan signing
- Repayment of Loan will be the
lesser of 12 months after Loan origination date, or after all North
Bullfrog project mine construction permits are obtained by
Corvus
- A minimum of 70% of the Loan amount
to be spent on project work
- AngloGold is granted an exclusivity
period of 90 days where Corvus will abstain from all discussions or
actions related to material transactions involving Company assets
or change in share structure
The Loan constitutes a “related party
transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of
Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) as
AngloGold is a related party of Corvus given its greater than 10%
beneficial shareholding. Pursuant to Section 5.7(1)(f) of MI
61-101, the Company is exempt from obtaining minority approval of
the Company’s shareholders in respect of the Loan because it was
determined that the Loan is on reasonable commercial terms that are
not less advantageous to the Company than if the Loan was obtained
from a person dealing at arm's length with the Company and because
the Loan is not convertible into, or repayable in, equity or voting
securities of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or
otherwise participating in nature. The Company will file a material
change report in respect of the Loan. However, the material change
report will be filed less than 21 days prior to the closing of the
Loan, which is consistent with market practice and which the
Company deems reasonable in the circumstances. This transaction
remains subject to TSX acceptance.
