Heliostar Announces $4.6M in Commitments Under Warrant Incentive Program

By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2023) - Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR) (OTCQX: HSTXF) (FSE: RGG1) ("Heliostar" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its warrant exercise incentive program previously announced on November 14, 2023 (the "Warrant Incentive Program"). The Warrant Incentive Program was designed to encourage the early exercise of up to 46,363,630 common share purchase warrants issued on March 16, 2023 (the "Outstanding Warrants").

To date, holders of 15,368,864 Outstanding Warrants have committed to participate in the Warrant Incentive Program. Early exercise of such Outstanding Warrants would result in gross proceeds to the Company of $4,610,659.

"We continue to move rapidly forward with the Ana Paula project. The near future has a lot of valuation growth catalysts including resource growth, de-risking studies, accelerated path-to-production and continued exploration success. The first of the catalysts, an updated mineral resource estimate, is expected this month," commented Heliostar CEO, Charles Funk. He continued, "To maintain strength in the balance sheet to achieve these milestones the Company has looked within its share structure to minimize dilution. The Warrant Incentive Program has received significant commitments totalling $4.6 million to date. We believe it provides one of the least dilutive financing outcomes for all Heliostar shareholders. The offering Warrant Incentive Program remains open until December 8, 2023."

The Company is hosting a webinar on November 28 at 1pm Pacific/4pm Eastern time to provide an update on the Ana Paula Project. Please use the link here to register for the webinar:

About the Warrant Incentive Program

Pursuant to the Warrant Incentive Program, the Company has offered to holders of all 46,363,630 Outstanding Warrants the opportunity to exercise each of their Outstanding Warrants between 12:00 a.m. PST on November 17, 2023 and 12:00 p.m. PST on December 8, 2023. In return for the early exercise, each holder will receive one common share in the capital of the Company (each a "Common Share") pursuant to the original warrant terms, plus as an incentive, one-third of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, an "Incentive Warrant"). Each Incentive Warrant allows the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.40 for a period of two years following the date of the issuance of the Incentive Warrant. A holder may elect to exercise all, none, or a portion of their Outstanding Warrants.

Each Outstanding Warrant is currently exercisable to purchase one Common Share at $0.30 per Common Share until March 16, 2026. Any Outstanding Warrants remaining un-exercised after 12:00 p.m. PST on December 8, 2023 will remain outstanding and continue to be exercisable pursuant to their existing terms.

Holders of Outstanding Warrants who elect to participate in the Incentive Program are required to deliver the following to the Company on or prior to 12:00 p.m. PST on December 8, 2023:

  • a duly completed and executed exercise form, in the form which accompanies the certificate representing the Outstanding Warrants;
  • the original certificate representing the Outstanding Warrants being exercised; and
  • the applicable aggregate exercise price ($0.30 per Outstanding Warrant) payable to the Company by way of certified cheque, money order, bank draft, or wire transfer in lawful money of Canada.

The proceeds from the early exercise of the Outstanding Warrants will be used to advance the Company's Ana Paula Project and for general working capital.

The Common Shares issued on exercise of the Outstanding Warrants will not be subject to any hold period. The Incentive Warrants and any Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Incentive Warrants will be subject to a hold period expiring four months after the date of distribution of the Incentive Warrants.

The Incentive Program is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Readers are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements or forward-looking information. Although the Company has attempted to identify key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended.
