Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 6, 2012, Midway Gold Corp. (the “Registrant”) entered into a warrant indenture (the “Warrant Indenture”) between the Registrant and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as the warrant agent.
Under the terms of the Warrant Indenture, each whole common share purchase warrant (the “Warrant”) entitles the holder (the “Warrantholder”) to purchase one share of the Registrant’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant (the “Warrant Share”) at a price of $1.85. The Warrants will be exercisable at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on that date which is 18 months after July 6, 2012 (the “Expiry Time”), after the Expiry Time, the Warrants will expire and become null and void. The exercise price for the Warrants is payable in United States dollars.
The Warrant Indenture allows the Registrant to accelerate the Expiry Time of the Warrants to a date 30 days after giving notice to the Warrantholder if the Registrant’s common shares trade at a closing price of greater than $2.10 per share for a period of 20 consecutive trading days on the NYSE MKT LLC.
The Warrant Indenture provides for an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and/or the exercise price per Warrant Share upon the occurrence of certain events, including: (i) the issuance of the Registrant’s common shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into the Registrant’s common shares to all or substantially all of the holders of the Registrant’s common shares as a stock dividend or other distribution (other than a distribution of the Registrant’s common shares upon the exercise of Warrants); (ii) the subdivision, redivision or change of the Registrant’s common shares into a greater number of shares; (iii) the reduction, combination or consolidation of the Registrant’s common shares into a lesser number of shares; (iv) the issuance to all or substantially all of the holders of the Registrant’s common shares of rights, options or warrants under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase the Registrant’s common shares, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into the Registrant’s common shares, at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange or conversion price per share) of less than 95% of the current market price, as defined in the Warrant Indenture, for the Registrant’s common shares on such record date; and (v) the issuance or distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of the common shares of shares of any class other than the Registrant’s common shares, rights, options or warrants to acquire the Registrant’s common shares or securities exchangeable or convertible into the Registrant’s common shares, of evidences of indebtedness, or any property or other assets.
The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Warrant Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Warrant Indenture, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
