Mar 14, 2022


SPC Nickel Corp. has closed the special flow-through unit portion of its previously announced non brokered private placement. On the closing of the Special FT Unit portion of the Offering, the Company issued an aggregate of 10,740,713 Special FT Units at a price of $0.15 per Special FT Unit, for proceeds of $1,611,106.95. Each Special FT Unit consists of one flow through common share of the Company and one half of one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant issued as part of the Special FT Units entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share (non-flow through) for a period of 18 months from closing at a price of $0.18.

Finders fees were paid, in connection with the Special FT Unit portion of the Offering, to finders, including Haywood Securities Inc., Leede Jones Gable Inc., Dundee Goodman Merchant Partners, PI Financial Corp., IBK Capital Corp, and Pertinax Capital BVBA, that consisted of a cash fee in the aggregate amount of $91,582.72, representing an aggregate commission of 6% of the FT Units sold to investors introduced by finders and an aggregate of 245,429 broker warrants (the "Broker Warrants"), representing an aggregate commission of 6% of the Special FT Units sold to investors introduced by finders. Each Broker Warrant entitles the holder the purchase of one common share for 18 months from closing at a price of $0.18. 

On March 8, 2021, the Company closed the first tranche of the Offering, issuing an aggregate of 11,980,000 FT Units (the "FT Units") at a price of $0.13 per FT Unit, for proceeds of $1,557,400. The Company raised an aggregate of $3,168,506.95 through both tranches of the Offering. 

The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Special FT Units will be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenses ("CEE") that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) on the Company's mineral properties. 

The securities issued in connection with the Special FT Unit Offering, including any Common Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants, are subject to a four month restricted resale period that expires on July 12, 2022 and applicable securities legislation hold periods outside of Canada from the closing date.

The Company has relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of these related party transactions on the basis that the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the transactions do not, in aggregate, exceed 25% of the market value of the Company.
