TSX.V: CPO
VANCOUVER, Jan. 11, 2018 /CNW/ - Cobalt Power Group Inc.
(the "Company") (TSX.V: CPO) is pleased to announce that,
pursuant to a price reservation and conditional acceptance by the
TSX Venture Exchange, it has closed a non-brokered private
placement of 13,640,000 units for gross proceeds of CDN$1,500,400.
The non-brokered private placement closed on January 10, 2018, and consisted of the placement
of 13,640,000 units at a price of $0.11 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common
share of the Company and one-half transferable share purchase
warrant with one full warrant entitling the holder to purchase one
additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.28 for a period of two (2) years following the
date of closing.
As compensation for the placement of the units, Cobalt Power has
agreed to pay finder's fees equal to $79,920 calculated at 6% of the amount placed by
one (1) finder. The finder has opted to convert his cash
commissions into shares of Cobalt Power at a price of $0.32 per share for a total of 249,750 common
shares of the Company, subject to TSX Venture Exchange
approval.
All securities issued by Cobalt Power pursuant to the offering
have been issued subject to a four month hold period expiring
May 11, 2018.
The non-brokered private placement received substantial interest
resulting in an oversubscription, whereby some of the subscriptions
were not filled and some were reduced from the original amount. Due
to this demand, management opted out of participating.
The proceeds will be used to advance the Company's cobalt
properties, including properties recently gained through the
acquisition of Canadian Cobalt Projects Inc. and additional cobalt
exploration opportunities resulting from that acquisition.
