Exhibit 99.2


NOTICE TO READER
As of June 30, 2016, Klondex Mines Ltd. ("Klondex") determined that it no longer qualified as a "foreign private issuer" as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, which means that Klondex, as of January 1, 2017, has been required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, such as Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, rather than the forms the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in the past as a foreign private issuer, such as Forms 20-F and 6-K.
Klondex is accordingly now required to prepare its financial statements filed with the SEC in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). As required pursuant to section 4.3(4) of National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations, Klondex must restate its interim financial reports for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 in accordance with U.S. GAAP, such interim financial reports having previously been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards.
The attached condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Klondex Mines Ltd.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
1. Basis of presentation
Klondex Mines Ltd. (the "Company" or "Klondex") is a gold and silver mining company focused on mining, exploration, development, and production in a safe, environmentally-responsible, and cost-effective manner. The Company was incorporated on August 25, 1971 under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. Gold and silver sales represent 100% of the Company's revenues and the market prices of gold and silver significantly impact its financial position, operating results, and cash flows. The Company principally operates in Nevada, USA and Manitoba, Canada.
Basis of presentation
The Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP"). All amounts are expressed and presented in thousands of United States dollars (unless otherwise noted) and references to "CDN$" refer to Canadian dollars.
Certain information and footnote disclosure required by US GAAP for complete annual financial statements have been omitted. Therefore, these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Transition from IFRS to US GAAP
In previous years, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as permitted by securities regulators in Canada, as well as in the United States under the status of a Foreign Private Issuer as defined by the SEC. At the end of the second quarter of 2016, the Company determined that it no longer qualified as a Foreign Private Issuer under the SEC rules. As a result, beginning January 1, 2017, among other things, the Company is required to: (1) report to the SEC on domestic forms and comply with domestic company rules in the United States and (2) prepare its Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K in accordance with US GAAP, which requires the retrospective application of such accounting principles to the Company's records since inception. Due to differences in accounting treatments between IFRS and US GAAP, amounts historically reported for the Company's financial position, operating results, and cash flows under IFRS changed from those which are currently reported under US GAAP. In conjunction with the transition, the Company is refiling the interim financial information included herein to comply with Canadian securities regulations.
Principles of consolidation
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements include the accounts of Klondex Mines Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements requires management to make assumptions, estimates, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. In the opinion of management, these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company's financial position, operating results, and cash flows. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable at the time the estimate was made. Accordingly, actual results may differ from amounts estimated in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and such differences could be material. The amounts presented in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future years.
Significant accounting policies
There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies as described in the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
2. Recent accounting pronouncements
Recently adopted
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." ASU No. 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, which is consistent with the treatment of debt discounts. ASU No. 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2015, which for the Company meant the first quarter

8


of the year ending December 31, 2016. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, "Interest - Imputation of Interest", which allows for debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements to be presented as an asset with the debt issuance costs being amortized ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2015-03 and ASU No. 2015-15, which other than presentation and disclosure changes, did not have a material impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, "Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." ASU No. 2015-16 requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts identified during the measurement-period in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. This eliminates the requirement for an acquirer to retrospectively adjust financial statements for measurement-period adjustments determined in periods after a business combination is consummated. ASU No. 2015-16 was effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015, which for the Company meant the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2016. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2015-16, which other than presentation and disclosure changes, did not have a material impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17 "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes". ASU No. 2015-17 requires entities with classified balance sheets to report deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as non-current. ASU No. 2015-17 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, which for the Company means the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2017. The Company has early adopted ASU No. 2015-17, which other than presentation and disclosure changes, did not have a material impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
Recently issued
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which has been amended several times. The new standard provides a five-step approach to be applied to all contracts with customers and also requires expanded disclosures surrounding revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2017, which for the Company means the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2018. The Company has evaluated the impacts of ASU No. 2014-09 and does not expect it will have a material impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases." ASU No. 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations resulting from leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU No. 2016-02 will have on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." ASU No. 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an accounting policy election for forfeitures, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU No. 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, which for the Company means the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU No. 2016-09 will have on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
3. Business combinations
True North acquisition
On January 22, 2016, the Company acquired the True North (formerly known as Rice Lake) mine and mill complex located near Bissett, Manitoba, Canada for $32.0 million (the "True North Acquisition"), which was carried out pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement dated December 16, 2015 among Klondex Mines Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary, Klondex Canada Ltd. ("Klondex Canada") and the vendor, 7097914 Manitoba Ltd. (formerly Shoreline Gold Inc.). The purchase price of $32.0 million was satisfied by $20.0 million in cash paid at closing and $12.0 million in deferred payments in the form of a promissory note to the vendor with an annual interest rate of 4.0% (the "Promissory Note") (see Note 7. Debt).
The Company accounted for the True North Acquisition as a business combination and allocated the purchase consideration transferred to the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, as shown below (in thousands):

Revolver
On March 23, 2016, the Company, as borrower, entered into a $25.0 million secured revolving facility agreement (the "Revolver") with Investec Bank PLC ("Investec"), as lender and security agent. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest per annum at LIBOR plus Margin plus Risk Premium, as such terms are defined in the Revolver. Margin is determined by the Company's Gearing Ratio (a measure of debt to EBITDA) and ranges from 2.75%-4.00% per annum and the Risk Premium is 0.35% per annum, until the Gold Purchase Agreement balance is less than $10.0 million, at which time the Risk Premium is no longer applicable (as such terms are defined in the Revolver). Revolver borrowings may be utilized by the Company for working capital requirements, general corporate purposes, and capital investments and expenditures. The Revolver's maturity date is March 23, 2018, unless otherwise extended by the Company and Investec, and is secured by all of the Company's assets on a pari passu basis with the Gold Purchase Agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company did not draw any funds from the Revolver.
The Company incurred Revolver issuance costs of $0.9 million which, as of June 30, 2016, were classified as a non-current asset as no corresponding borrowing liability existed to net such capitalized costs against. Revolver issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the Revolver.
Gold Purchase Agreement
The Company's February 2014 gold purchase agreement with a subsidiary of Franco-Nevada Corporation (the "Gold Purchase Agreement") requires physical gold deliveries to be made at the end of each month, each of which reduces the Gold Purchase Agreement balance and accrued interest. The repayment amortization schedule was established on the transaction date and incorporates then current forward gold prices (ranging from $1,290 to $1,388) and an effective interest rate of approximately 18.3%. Gold deliveries will cease on December 31, 2018 following the delivery of 38,250 gold ounces. The Gold Purchase Agreement is secured by all the Company's assets on a pari passu basis with the Revolver but is subordinated to the Secured Promissory Note with respect to the True North acquisition assets.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company delivered 2,000 and 4,000 gold ounces, respectively, under the Gold Purchase Agreement. The Company is required to deliver 2,000 gold ounces per quarter (8,000 gold ounces per year) during fiscal years 2016, 2017, and 2018.
Capital lease obligations
The Company's capital lease obligations are for the purchase of mobile mine equipment, bear interest at approximately 3.95% per annum, and carry 36-month terms. The Company's capital lease obligations are secured by the underlying assets financed.
Secured Promissory Note
In conjunction with its January 22, 2016 acquisition of True North (see Note 3. Business combinations), the Company entered into a $12.0 million promissory note to the vendor with an annual interest rate of 4.0% (previously defined as the "Promissory Note"). The Promissory Note requires principal repayments of $4.0 million in each of the next three years on the anniversary of the closing date. Interest payments are due monthly. Klondex Canada may, at its option, repay the entire principal amount of the Promissory Note then outstanding at any time without penalty. The Promissory Note is secured against the acquisition assets and contains customary representations, covenants, and events of default, which the Company was in compliance with as of period-end.
Debt covenants
The Company's debt agreements contain certain representations and warranties, restrictions, events of default, and covenants that are customary for agreements of these types. Additionally, the Revolver contains financial covenants which require the Company to maintain a Tangible Net Worth not less than $100.0 million, a Gearing Ratio (a measure of debt to EBITDA) not greater than 4.00:1, a Cash Balance not less than $10.0 million, and a Current Ratio not less than 1.10:1 (as such terms are defined in the Revolver). The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Gold Purchase Agreement embedded derivative
The Company's Gold Purchase Agreement (as defined and discussed in Note 7. Debt) contains an embedded compound derivative for the: 1) prepayment option, which is at the discretion of the Company, and 2) the forward sales component, which was established on the transaction date and incorporates the then current forward gold prices. In addition to recurring fair value adjustments, gains and

losses on the Gold Purchase Agreement's embedded derivative relate to the difference in the forward gold price received by the Company and the spot price of gold on each delivery date.

Gold Offering Agreement
In March 2011, the Company entered into a gold offering agreement, as amended in October 2011, (the "Gold Offering Agreement") which granted the counterparty the right to purchase, on a monthly basis, the refined gold produced from the Fire Creek mine for a five-year period which began in February 2013 and ends in February 2018. When/if the counterparty elects to purchase the refined gold, the purchase price is calculated as the average PM settlement price per gold ounce on the London Bullion Market Association for the 30 trading days immediately preceding the relevant purchase election date. A 1.0% discount was applicable through February 29, 2016 and no longer exists. In addition to recurring fair value adjustments, gains and losses on the Gold Offering Agreement relate to: 1) the difference in the gold price paid to the Company from the counterparty and the spot price of gold on the applicable delivery date and 2) losses incurred by the Company to net cash settle any obligations arising from the Gold Offering Agreement.

Forward metal sales
In order to increase the certainty of expected future cash flows, from time to time the Company enters into fixed forward spot trades for a portion of its projected gold and silver sales. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company entered into forward trades which covered 69,820 and 97,090 gold ounces, respectively and 896,900 and 1,421,516 silver ounces, respectively. Average prices per gold ounce were $1,268 and $1,245 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Average prices per silver ounce were $17.35 and $16.56 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. These agreements are considered derivative financial instruments and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a $6.2 million and $7.4 million loss on the settlement of such instruments, which was determined by the difference in the fixed forward price received by the Company and the spot price on the applicable delivery date.
10. Fair value measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and are not observable.

14


Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The following table provides a listing (by level) of the Company's financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

Gold Purchase Agreement embedded derivative - This asset was valued by a third-party consultant (and reviewed by the Company) using observable inputs, including period-end forward gold prices and historic forward gold prices from the Gold Purchase Agreement's February 2014 transaction date and, as such, is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Forward metal sales - Forward metal sales are valued using observable inputs, which are forward metal prices. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Gold Offering Agreement - This liability was valued by a third-party consultant (and reviewed by the Company) using a simulation-based pricing model and is classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as it incorporates an estimate of the Company's future gold production from Fire Creek, which is not an observable input, as well as quoted prices from active markets and certain observable inputs, such as, forward gold prices and the volatility of such prices.
Items disclosed at fair value - Other than the above, the carrying values of financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values, other than Debt, which is carried at amortized cost. As of June 30, 2016, the fair value of the Gold Purchase Agreement, including the embedded features, was approximately $25.0 million.

12. Share-based compensation
The Company has a Share Option and Restricted Share Unit Plan ("New Share Plan" as defined in the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016) to compensate eligible participants, which can include directors, officers, employees, and service providers to the Company. The New Share Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company and subject to conditions and restrictions over award terms, grant limits, and grant prices. The New Share Plan was approved at the June 15, 2016 annual and special meeting of shareholders. Subject to certain adjustments, the maximum number of common shares available for grant under the New Share Plan is equal to 8.9% of the common shares then outstanding less the aggregate number of common shares reserved for issuance under all current and legacy share-based compensation plans. Additionally, the maximum number of common shares available for issuance pursuant to grants under the restricted share unit plan is subject to a sub-cap and cannot exceed 4.0% of the total number of common shares outstanding at the time of grant of the applicable award.
The New Share Plan replaced the Company's Share Incentive Plan (the "Legacy SIP" (as defined in the the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016). he Legacy SIP permitted the granting of share options and common share awards. Awards outstanding under the Legacy SIP will continue to vest in accordance with their grant terms and reduce the number of shares available for issuance under the New Share Plan (discussed above).

14. Net (loss) income per share
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if outstanding share-based instruments were executed. The following table provides computations of the Company's basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the impact of dilutive common share-based instruments was determined using the Company's average share price, which was CDN$4.38 and CDN$3.87, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the impact of dilutive common share-based instruments was determined using the Company's average share price, which was $CDN3.17 and CDN$2.84, respectively.
Diluted net income per share excludes common share-based instruments in periods where inclusion would be anti-dilutive. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's basic weighted average common shares and diluted weighted average common shares were the same because the effects of potential execution was anti-dilutive due to the Company's net loss. Had the Company generated net income, during the three months ended June 30, 2016, the effects from executing 3,344,200 share options, 4,287,918 warrants, and 488,336 common share awards would have been included in the diluted weighted average common shares calculation. Had the Company generated net income, during the six months ended June 30, 2016, the effects from executing 2,854,064 share options, 3,804,161 warrants, and 488,336 common share awards would have been included in the diluted weighted average common shares calculation.

17. Commitments and contingencies
Other than as disclosed below, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, no material changes have occurred with respect to the matters disclosed in Note 24. Contingencies to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Provision for legal settlement
In 2012, three former directors and/or employees of the Company resigned or were terminated for cause and because the Company believed that each individual breached certain duties, no amounts for severance benefits and/or the receipt of previously granted share-based compensation awards were initially accrued, including as of the beginning of the year. The individuals filed claims against the Company for such compensation benefits and other claims and as of the date of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, two of the three individuals had entered into agreements with the Company to dismiss such claims without the ability to refile a claim in the future.
Based upon settlement discussions, as of the date of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, the Company currently believes the litigation with the third individual may be settled out of court for approximately $2.3 million using cash, share-based instruments, or a combination of the two. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company recorded a Provision for legal settlement for this amount in its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
18. Subsequent events
Hollister and Esmeralda Acquisitions
On July 25, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive membership interest purchase agreement (the "Hollister Purchase Agreement") with Klondex Holdings (USA) Inc. ("Klondex USA"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Waterton Nevada Splitter, LLC ("Waterton Splitter") and Waterton Precious Metals Fund II Cayman, LP (together with Waterton Splitter, "Waterton") to acquire from Waterton Splitter, among other assets described below, the Hollister mine (the "Hollister Mine") and the Esmeralda mine and ore milling complex (the "Esmeralda Mine") located in Northern Nevada (the "Hollister Acquisition").
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire from Waterton all of the membership interests of Carlin Resources, LLC (the "Carlin Interest"), the entity that owns: (i) the Hollister Mine; (ii) the Esmeralda Mine and ore milling complex; (iii) a corporate office in Winnemucca, Nevada; (iv) a core shed and corporate house; (v) a laboratory in Lovelock, Nevada; (vi) a mobile fleet of underground mining equipment; and (vii) certain other land interests and related assets (collectively, the "Acquisition Assets").
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire the Carlin Interest in consideration for payment of: (i) US$63,000,000 payable to Waterton in cash on closing of the Hollister Acquisition (the "Acquisition Closing"); (ii) US$17,000,000 payable to Waterton by delivery of a secured promissory note on the Acquisition Closing, which note will have a four year term, be secured against the Hollister Mine, bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum and be repayable in equal installments at the end of years 2, 3 and 4 of the term; (iii) subject to approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and the NYSE MKT, issuance on the Acquisition Closing by the Company to Waterton of 5,000,000 warrants (the "Consideration Warrants") to purchase common shares of the Company ("Common Shares"), which Consideration Warrants will have a 15-1/2 year term, be exercisable starting on the day that is six months after the Acquisition Closing, have an exercise price equal to CDN$6.00 and include a forced conversion provision that requires the holder to convert the Consideration Warrants if the Common Shares trade at or above a 100% premium to the exercise price of the Consideration Warrants for 60 consecutive trading days on the market on which the Consideration Warrants primarily trade; and (iv) subject to approval of the TSX and the NYSE MKT, issuance by the Company to Waterton of 2,600,000 Common Shares on the Acquisition Closing.
In addition to certain other royalty interests, the properties relating to the Hollister Mine are subject to a 1% net smelter returns royalty in favor of Waterton that is payable after 500,000 ounces of gold and gold equivalent have been extracted, and certain properties relating to the Esmeralda Mine are subject to a 3% net smelter returns royalty in favor of Waterton.
Completion of the Hollister Acquisition is subject to, among other things: (i) the approval of the TSX and the NYSE MKT, (ii) any waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 having expired or been terminated, or clearance otherwise having been granted by the relevant governmental authorities, (iii) the Company raising gross proceeds of at least US$65,000,000 in equity financing, (iv) the receipt of all other necessary third party authorizations, approvals and consents, and (v) other customary conditions typical of a transaction of this nature. The Hollister Acquisition is expected to close in the late third or early fourth quarter of 2016.
Subscription Receipt Offering
In connection with the Hollister Acquisition, on July 25, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement (as amended on July 26, 2016) with GMP Securities L.P. and BMO Capital Markets acting as joint bookrunners on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (the “Underwriters”), who agreed to purchase for resale, on a bought deal private placement basis, 22,900,000 subscription receipts of the Company ("Subscription Receipts"), at a price of CDN$5.00 per Subscription Receipt (the "Offering Price"), for aggregate gross

21


proceeds of CDN$114,500,000 (the "Offering"). The Company has also granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable up to two business days prior to the closing date of the Offering, to purchase of up to an additional 3,000,000 Subscription Receipts at the Offering Price for additional gross proceeds of up to CDN$15,000,000.
On closing of the Offering, the gross proceeds of the sale of Subscription Receipts, less the reasonable costs and expenses of the Underwriters, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Underwriters' legal counsel, and less 50% of the underwriters' fee (being 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering) will be placed into escrow. Upon the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the Hollister Acquisition (other than the payment of the purchase price), and provided that the conditions have been satisfied by the date which is 90 days following closing of the Offering, the proceeds delivered into escrow, less the remaining 50% of the underwriters' fee will be released to the Company and each holder of Subscription Receipts will receive, without the payment of additional consideration or further action on the part of the holder, one special warrant (a "Special Warrant") of the Company, with each Special Warrant entitling the holder to acquire, for no additional consideration, one Common Share. The Special Warrants will be exercisable by the holders thereof at any time after the closing date of the Hollister Acquisition for no additional consideration and all unexercised Special Warrants will be deemed to be exercised on the earlier of: (a) the date that is four months and a day following the closing date of the Offering, and (b) the third business day after a receipt is issued for a (final) prospectus by the securities regulatory authorities in each of the Provinces of Canada where the Subscription Receipts are sold (other than Quebec) (the "Qualifying Provinces") qualifying the Common Shares to be issued upon the exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrants.
The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a prospectus in order to qualify the issuance of the Common Shares upon conversion of the Special Warrants in Canada. It is expected that the prospectus will be filed following the preparation of a technical report in respect of the Hollister Mine, if required in accordance with applicable securities laws, and the preparation of the necessary audited and unaudited financial statements and pro forma financial statements relating to the Acquisition Assets in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering: (i) to fund the cash purchase price of the Hollister Acquisition and replacement of reclamation bonds currently in place with United States and Nevada regulators, (ii) for exploration growth at the Hollister Mine and Esmeralda Mine and (iii) development at the Hollister Mine.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or about August 18, 2016, and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approvals of the TSX and the NYSE MKT.
