Havilah Mining Corporation Announces Non-Brokered Private Placement


December 17, 2018

TORONTO, Dec. 17, 2018 /CNW/ - Havilah Mining Corporation (TSXV: HMC) ("Havilah" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has arranged a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of 385,000 units of the Company ("Units") at a price of $0.285 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $109,725 from senior officers of the Company and a director of the Company. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company ("Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of $0.50 per Common Share until September 19, 2021.

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for general corporate purposes.

"We are pleased with the capital commitment that each of our management and board has contributed," said Blair Schultz, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Havilah. "At Havilah, we believe being shareholders alongside everyone is important. Our purchase prices have been at the market where anyone can buy."

Certain insiders of the Company (within the meaning of the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV")) intend to participate and purchase Units under the Private Placement. The participation of the insiders in the Private Placement will constitute a "related-party transaction" within the meaning of TSXV Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions("MI 61-101"). The Company intends to rely on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority security holder approval requirements set out in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the subject matter of the Private Placement does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company did not file, and does not anticipate filing, a material change report more than 21 days before the closing of the Private Placement, since the closing date for the Private Placement has not been finally determined and the Company wishes to complete the Private Placement on an expedited basis for commercial reasons.

The Common Shares and Warrants that comprise the Units (as well as any Common Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants) will be subject to a hold period of four months from and after the closing of the Private Placement under applicable securities legislation and the rules and policies of the TSXV.

The securities being offered have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States absent U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in the United States.

Closing of the Private Placement is subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals including the final acceptance of the TSXV.
