(collectively, the "Underwriters").
The gross proceeds from the Offering have been placed into escrow with TSX Trust Company (the "Subscription Receipt Agent"). Each Subscription Receipt represents the right of a holder to receive, upon satisfaction or waiver of certain release conditions (including the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the completion of the Transaction other than the issuance of the consideration shares to shareholders of FCGI) (the "Escrow Release Conditions"), without payment of additional consideration, one common share in the capital of Integra (each an "Integra Share" and collectively, the "Integra Shares") subject to adjustments and in accordance with the terms and conditions of a subscription receipt agreement entered into among the Company, the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Underwriters. If the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied on or before December 15, 2024 (the "Termination Date"), the escrowed funds, together with interest earned thereon, will be released to the Company. If the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied prior to the Termination Date, the escrowed funds, together with interest earned thereon, will be returned on a pro rata basis to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled and have no further force and effect. The Subscription Receipts, including the Integra Shares issuable upon conversion thereof, are subject to a statutory hold period expiring on December 22, 2024.
In connection with the Offering, and assuming the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied prior to the Termination Date, the Underwriters will receive a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Subscription Receipts, other than in respect of certain president's list purchasers, in which case the commission was reduced to 3.0%.
Following completion of the Transaction, the net proceeds from the Offering are expected to be used to fund mine optimization opportunities at the Florida Canyon mine, continued advancement of DeLamar and Nevada North and for general corporate purposes.
