Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one (1) share of common stock of the Company at CAD$0.18 per share for a period of thirty six (36) months from the date of issue, with all common stock purchase warrants issued to insiders who invested entitling the those holders to acquire one (1) share of common stock of the Company at CAD$0.18 per share for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of issue, and all brokers’ common stock purchase warrants entitling the those holders to acquire one (1) share of common stock of the Company at CAD$0.14 per share of common stock for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of issue.

 

The securities were issued to non-U.S. Purchasers, in reliance upon the exemption provided by Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for a transaction not involving a public offering. The non-U.S. Purchasers acknowledged the following: The non-U.S. Purchaser is not a United States Person, nor is the non-U.S. Purchaser acquiring the Securities hares directly or indirectly for the account or benefit of a United States Person.  None of the funds used by the non-U.S. Purchaser to purchase the Securities have been obtained from United States Persons. For purposes of this Agreement, “United States Person” within the meaning of U.S. tax laws, means a citizen or resident of the United States, any former U.S. citizen subject to Section 877 of the Internal Revenue Code, any corporation, or partnership organized or existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state, jurisdiction, territory or possession thereof and any estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax irrespective of its source, and within the meaning of U.S. securities laws, as defined in Rule 902(o) of Regulation S, means: (i) any natural person resident in the United States; (ii) any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States; (iii) any estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. person; (iv) any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person; (v) any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the United States; (vi) any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a U.S. person; (vii) any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an individual) resident in the United States; and (viii) any partnership or corporation if organized under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, and formed by a U.S. person principally for the purpose of investing in securities not registered under the Securities Act, unless it is organized or incorporated, and owned, by accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a)) who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.

Energizer Resources Financing Now Closed

 

NEWS RELEASE Monday February 3, 2014, 8a.m. (ET)

 

Energizer Resources Inc. (TSX:EGZ) (OTCQX:ENZR) (FWB:YE5) (“Energizer” or the “Company”) announces, further to the Company’s press releases dated November 21, 2013, December 31, 2013 and January 14, 2014 that the previously announced private placement brokered and non-brokered offering of subscription receipts (“Subscription Receipts”) of the Company (the “Offering”) has now completely closed.

 

The Offering raised gross proceeds of C$7,486,088 on the sale of 62,384,067 Subscription Receipts resulting in 62,384,067 Common Shares and 31,192,033 Warrants. Management and employees of Energizer subscribed a total of $501,000 in this private placement. GMP Securities L.P. acted as agent under the brokered offering.

 

Each Subscription Receipt issued pursuant to the Offering was sold at a price of C$0.12 and was exercised, without additional consideration, on closing, for one common share (“Common Share”) and one half of one purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant has an exercise price of C$0.18 and a term of 36 months following the date of issue, except for those Warrants issued to insiders which have a term of 18 months following the date of issue.


The net proceeds from the Offering will be used primarily to fund a Full Feasibility Study for the Company's Molo flaked Graphite Project in Madagascar, to satisfy in part the due-diligence requirements of certain financial institutions that have expressed an interest in providing mine and equipment financing during development. Funds will also be used for general working capital purposes, including generating additional quantities of graphite concentrate for product evaluation and marketing. Marketing efforts will continue to be undertaken in the coming months to enhance the profile and appeal of the project to potential strategic partners and the investing public.


All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a minimum six-month hold period.


The Company has obtained conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) for the listing of all Common Shares issued or issuable pursuant to the Offering (including those underlying the Warrants). The Offering is subject to receipt of final approval of the TSX.
