Vancouver, B.C. — March 10, 2015 - I-Minerals Inc. (TSX.V: IMA; OTCQX: IMAHF) (the “Company”)
announces that it has received acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange
(the “Exchange”) for the new loan agreement with a company controlled
by Allen Ball, a director of the Company, pursuant to which up to
$4,463,000 U.S. will be advanced to the Company in tranches, as
originally announced on February 19, 2015. These advances are to be
considered secured loans bearing interest at the rate of 12% per annum
calculated and paid semi-annually from the date of each advance — as
disclosed in the Company’s February 19, 2015 news release, the interest
may also be payable in shares at the lender’s election.
As additional consideration for such advances, up to 1,889,095 bonus
shares and up to 1,889,095 bonus warrants may be issued to the lender,
representing 7.5% of the amount of the advances as provided for in
Exchange Policy 5.1 divided by the $0.22 “market price” of the Company’s
shares (as defined in Exchange Policy 1.1) as of February 18, 2015.
Each bonus warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share
of the Company at a price equal to the greater of:
- the “market price” of the Company’s shares (as defined in Exchange
Policy 1.1) as of the close of business on the date of the advance in
question; and
- the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s shares
over the 20 trading days prior to the date of said advance; but
- subject to a minimum exercise price of $0.22 Cdn. per share, as provided for in Exchange Policy 5.1;
for a period expiring on the earlier of:
- December 1, 2018; and
- the date the amount of the advance, together with all accrued interest thereon, has been repaid in full.
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has registered its
common shares under section 12 of the United States Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. Going forward, the Company will file, among
other things, annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form
10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
