MONTREAL, Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MONARCH MINING CORPORATION (“Monarch” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: GBAR) (OTCQX: GBARF) announces that it is proceeding with a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of a minimum of 15,384,615 and a maximum of 76,923,077 common shares (the “Shares”) at a price of $0.065 per Share, for a minimum of $1,000,000 and a maximum of $5,000,000 in gross proceeds. The Corporation also reserves the option to increase the size of the Offering by an additional 20% of the maximum amount of the Offering, equivalent to $1,000,000.

The Shares will be offered by way of the “accredited investor” and “minimum amount investment” exemptions under National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (the “National Instrument 45-106”) and similar exemptions in Canada, and the Shares may be sold to offshore jurisdictions and in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In addition, the Corporation has decided that the Offering will also be open to participation by existing Monarch shareholders resident in Canada (the “Eligible Monarch Shareholders”) of record as of the close of business on November 16, 2022 (the “Record Date”) pursuant to Regulation 45-513 respecting Prospectus Exemption for Distribution to Existing Security Holders, and similar prospectus exemptions in other provinces of Canada (the “Existing Shareholder Exemption”).

As indicated above, the Offering is open to Eligible Monarch Shareholders. Shareholders interested in participating in the Offering in reliance upon the Existing Shareholder Exemption should contact, or have their registered broker contact, Mathieu Séguin, Vice President, Corporate Development of the Corporation, at [email protected] or 1-888-994-4465 to obtain a copy of the subscription agreement for the Shares. In the subscription agreement, subscribers who are Eligible Monarch Shareholders will be required to represent and warrant that they held Shares of Monarch on the Record Date and will continue to hold Shares on the Closing Date, indicate the total number of Shares they wish to subscribe for at a price of $0.065 per Share and provide funds, by wire transfer or by cheque, to purchase the Shares. The Offering is being allocated to Eligible Monarch Shareholders and investors with a prospectus exemption under National Instrument 45-106 on a “first come, first served” basis wherein the subscribers who are first to submit a completed subscription agreement and pay the corresponding subscription proceeds will be accepted up until the $5,000,000 maximum amount of the Offering is reached.

The Existing Shareholder Exemption limits a shareholder to a maximum investment of $15,000 in a 12-month period unless the shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the investment from a person registered as an investment dealer.

At the Closing Date, the Corporation may pay a finder’s fee or commission to registered finders in connection with the sale of Shares to subscribers introduced to the Corporation by such finder, as follows: (i) a cash finder’s fee or commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering; and (ii) compensation options (the “Compensation Warrants”) equal to 6% of the number of Shares sold under the Offering. Each Compensation Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Share of the Corporation at a price of $0.065 per Share over a period of 12 months following the Closing Date.
