BCU · Price

Executive Summary

  • Bell Copper Corp. has amended the terms of its previously announced $2,052,000 non-brokered convertible debenture financing with Crescat Capital LLC, materially altering the conversion mechanics and warrant structure.
  • The initial conversion price is reduced to $0.08 per share for the first year post-issuance (from $0.10), while the accompanying detachable warrants are reduced from 34.2 million to 25.65 million with an amended exercise price of $0.13 per share.
  • Proceeds will fund the ongoing drilling and exploration program at the Big Sandy porphyry copper project and general working capital, pending TSX Venture Exchange and other regulatory approvals.

Key Details

  • Financing Structure & Amount: $2,052,000 in secured 10% convertible debentures.
  • Counterparty: Crescat Capital LLC / Crescat Portfolio Management LLC (identified as a related-party transaction as Crescat is an insider).
  • Conversion Price Amendment: Reduced to $0.08 per share for the first year following issuance; remains at $0.10 per share for periods following the first year.
  • Warrant Terms: Reduced from 34.2 million to 25.65 million detachable common share purchase warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share at an amended exercise price of $0.13 per share. Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from issuance.

The transaction is exempt from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 as it does not exceed 25% of the company's market capitalization.
