Euromax Resources Ltd., 2 April 2018 (TSX: EOX; OTCQB: EOXFF): (“Euromax” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement to complete a non-brokered private placement financing to Galena Resource Equities Limited (“Galena”), an entity controlled by Galena Asset Management S.A. which is an affiliate of the Trafigura Group of 29,000,000 units (the “Units”) each consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (the “Common Shares”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (the “Warrants”), at an offering price of CAD$0.18 per Unit for gross proceeds of CAD$5,220,000 (USD$4,000,000) (the “Private Placement”).

The Warrants entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of CAD$0.23 for a period of two years following the closing of the Private Placement. The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for the development of the Company’s Ilovica-Shtuka Copper-Gold Project (“Ilovica-Shtuka” or the “Project”) and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with closing of the Private Placement, the Company and Galena will enter into an Ancillary Rights Agreement, which will provide Galena with the right to nominate two members of the Company’s board of directors until such time as it no longer holds greater than 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares, certain other rights as a significant shareholder of the Company, including pre-emptive financing rights, demand registration rights, and piggy-back registration rights, and the adoption of a new Technical Committee Charter, pursuant to which Galena will have the right to nominate two members of Euromax’s Technical Committee. Also in connection with closing of the Private Placement, the Company will enter into a Technical Services Agreement for the provision of services by Galena to the Company in order to help steer the development of the Project. The Company will also enter into an Offtake Agreement with Trafigura Pte Ltd. on closing of the Private Placement for the sale of copper concentrate produced at Ilovica-Shtuka.

Closing of the Private Placement is subject to various conditions, including the approval of certain shareholders, the waiver of certain rights held by prior investors, and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including, but not limited to, the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”). The securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of closing in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

Debenture Amendments

A condition to closing the Private Placement is that the Company obtain agreements from each of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (“EBRD”) and CC Ilovitza Limited (“CCC”), an affiliate of Consolidated Contractors Company Group, to extend the maturity date of EBRD’s and CCC’s previously issued convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amounts of USD$5,000,000 and CAD$5,200,000, respectively, from April 30, 2018 to December 31, 2018, to reduce the conversion price of such debentures from CAD$0.40 to CAD$0.23 per Common Share, and amend the interest rate to 20% per annum (compounding annually) (collectively, the “Debenture Amendments”). As a result of the Debenture Amendments, EBRD and CCC will be able to convert the outstanding principal amounts of such debentures for an aggregate of 27,911,086 and 22,608,695 Common Shares, respectively.

The Company has come to agreements in principle with EBRD and CCC in respect of the Debenture Amendments and expects to enter into definitive documentation in a timely manner. Implementation of the Debenture Amendments is subject to receipt of all necessary approvals, including, but not limited to, the approval of the TSX.

Exchange and Shareholder Approval

The rules of the TSX require the Company to obtain shareholder approval to allow for the full exercise of the Warrants to be issued pursuant to the Private Placement and the implementation of the Debenture Amendments because the total number of issued or issuable Common Shares will result in dilution of greater than 25% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis immediately prior to the completion of the Private Placement, and because Galena would, upon full exercise of the Warrants, be able to acquire greater than 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares immediately following closing of the Private Placement, thereby becoming a “control person” (as defined under applicable securities laws).

With the permission of the TSX, the Company intends to obtain shareholder approval for the completion of the Private Placement and the implementation of Debenture Amendments by way of written consents in lieu of a meeting pursuant to Section 604(d) of the TSX Company Manual. The TSX has required that EBRD be excluded from any shareholder vote or consent resolution in respect of the Private Placement and Debenture Amendments. Accordingly, EBRD’s Common Shares will be excluded from the aggregate total of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares and the Company will seek to have shareholders representing a majority of its remaining issued and outstanding Common Shares vote in favour of completing the Private Placement and Debenture Amendments. Closing of the Private Placement and the implementation of the Debenture Amendments will occur on or after April 9, 2018, pursuant to the rules of the TSX.

EBRD currently holds 23,368,547, or approximately 17.2%, of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares. Neither Galena nor CCC debenture currently holds any Common Shares.

Following completion of the Private Placement, assuming the full exercise of the Warrants, Galena will hold 58,000,000 Common Shares, representing approximately 29.9% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Immediately prior to the completion of the Private Placement, the total number of securities issuable to Galena would represent, on a non-diluted basis, approximately 42.7% of the 135,815,163 Common Shares currently issued and outstanding.

The 58,000,000 Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Private Placement and 18,983,979 additional Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Debenture Amendments represent an aggregate of 76,983,979 Common Shares or approximately 56.6% of the currently issued and outstanding Common Shares.

The Debenture Amendments as they relate to EBRD constitute a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is exempt from the minority shareholder approval requirement under MI 61-101 in reliance on Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the consideration for the Debenture Amendments, insofar as it involves EBRD, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company anticipates it will file a material change report less than 21 days before the closing of the Private Placement. This shorter period is reasonable and necessary in the circumstances as the Company wants to complete the Private Placement as expeditiously as possible given the immediacy of the Company’s need for financing.
