NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S.
James Bay Resources Limited (TSX VENTURE:JBR) ("JBR") today announced that it
has raised gross proceeds of $1,930,424.00 by way of a non-brokered private
placement (the "Offering") of 1,930,424 units ("Units") at a price of $1.00 per
Unit, being the first tranche of its financing previously announced in its press
release dated December 23, 2013.
Each Unit is comprised of one common share (a "Common Share") in the capital of
JBR and one Common Share purchase warrant (each a "Warrant"). Each Warrant
comprising part of the Units is exercisable for a Common Shares at a price of
$1.25 for thirty-six months from the date of issuance.
In connection with the Offering, JBR issued an aggregate of 60,397 finder's
warrants ("Finder's Warrants") and paid an aggregate amount of $60,397 in cash
finder's fees to one eligible arms-length finder. Each Finder's Warrant entitles
the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $1.00 for thirty-six months
from the date of issuance.
The proceeds from the Offering if fully subscribed, will be used to fund working
capital (approximately $1.85 million, with $600,000 to be used to repay existing
debt), and to enable James Bay to further the foundation of its proposed oil and
gas business in Nigeria including well planning (approximately $500,000) and
jack up rig deposits (approximately $2.5 million), pending raising up to an
additional $20 million which it is anticipated will be raised through debt (the
"Debt Financing") to fully fund the re-entry costs for the Ogedeh Project. The
Offering is a condition to obtaining the subsequent Debt Financing needed to
complete the COB. James Bay obtained written approval from shareholders holding
greater than 50% of the outstanding common shares authorizing the Offering. Two
insiders of JBR participated, consisting of one director and one executive
officer who purchased $600,000 Units in aggregate.
The common shares and warrants issued as Units pursuant to the Offering will be
subject to a four month regulatory hold period commencing from the date of
closing. In addition, the securities comprising the Units will have a TSXV
legend restricting transfer until completion of the COB. The Offering is subject
to TSXV acceptance of requisite regulatory filings.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an exemption from the registration requirements. This press
release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such
offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
