I am not sure most understand capital markets. To me this deal is very reasonable. No it is not 26% annual interest get a calculator out pls!!!!
Interest rate is 10% p.a. for 2 years and capitalised upfront + 2.5% est fee for the 2 years.
So if you do simple maths you say ok FV for the 2 years!!!! is $9.075m + 2.5% est fee on 7.5m ($187,500) = $9,262,500 again over 2 years is an interest rate (all in costs) of 11.75%
No royalties, no break fees ......... + If VAN goes up they can convert at 6c which is 100% + premium
I do not think any other gold explorer will find a better deal anywhere
To me this is an amazing deal so not sure those that think this is bad actually understand financing of small cap resource companies
