Purepoint Uranium Group Announces Intention to Extend Warrant Term
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 26, 2022) - Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) ("Purepoint" or the "Company") announces that the Company intends to apply to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") to extend the expiry date of a total of 35,838,000 outstanding common share purchase warrants ("Warrants") issued by the Company in connection with a private placement of flow-through units and common share units of the Company which was completed on December 17, 2020 (the "Private Placement").
Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share in the capital of the Company at an exercise price of $0.08 for two years following the closing of the Private Placement. The Warrants are currently due to expire on December 17, 2022 and the Company is applying to the Exchange to extend the expiry date of the Warrants to June 17, 2023. All other terms of the Warrants, including the exercise price, will remain the same.
The expiration date of the 219,480 outstanding compensation warrants (the "Compensation Warrants") issued to the finders who facilitated the Private Placement cannot be extended pursuant to the applicable policy of the Exchange. Accordingly, the expiration date of the Compensation Warrants will remain the same.
None of the Warrants have been exercised within the last six months. The proposed extension of the expiration date of the Warrants is subject to approval by the Exchange.
