Niocan could revise terms of C$4 million private placement of units

Offering with Augyva Mining was originally priced at C$1.15 per unit

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., June 27 - Niocan Inc. may revise the terms of a C$4 million private placement of units with investor Augyva Mining Resources Inc., according to a press release from the investor. The offer priced June 22, and the investor has submitted a revised proposal of the deal to the company.

The company may now sell 3,076,923 units of one common share and one half-share warrant to Augyva at C$1.30 per unit. The units originally were priced at C$1.15 each.

Each whole warrant is exercisable at C$1.35 for two years. The strike price is a 32.35% premium to the June 21 closing share price of C$1.02.

Settlement is expected June 29.

"We still sincerely believe that Augyva's revised superior financing proposal offers a significant premium than the one contemplated among Niocan and Forbes & Manhattan, Inc., as disclosed by Niocan in a press release dated May 4," Augyva's president and chief executive officer, Georges-Yvan Gagnon, said in a press release. "Augyva's revised offer, including the improved pricing, maximizes Niocan shareholder value. We are confident to be able to close the financing within a very short period of time, should Niocan accept our proposal."

Niocan is a Montreal-based niobium exploration company.
