New Issue: Orbite Aluminae sells C$8.5 million units of 5% convertibles, warrants

By Rebecca Melvin

New York, March 31 – Orbite Aluminae Inc. priced C$8.5 million units on a bought deal basis via underwriter Euro Pacific Canada Inc., which has the option to sell up to C$6.5 million of additional units for a total of C$15 million, according to a news release.

Each unit consists of a 5% convertible unsecured unsubordinated debenture and 1,077 share purchase warrants, into which the debentures are convertible.

The debentures are freely convertible at a conversion price of C$0.325 per common share plus a make-whole formula for recouping interest lost if converted before the debentures’ five-year maturity.

Proceeds will be used to fund the company's high purity alumina production facility in Cap-chat, Quebec, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The strike on the warrants is C$0.39 per share.

Montreal-based Orbite is an exploration and development stage company of ores, primarily alumina.
