Vena Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Vena Resources") (TSX: VEM)(LIMA: VEM)(FRANKFURT: V1R)(OTCBB: VNARF) announces today that the Company has entered into a standby equity distribution agreement ("SEDA") with YA Global Master SPV, Ltd. ("YA Global"), a fund managed by Yorkville Advisors, LLC, whereby Vena Resources has the option, at its sole discretion, to issue and sell, and YA Global is committed to purchase, up to CAD $10 million of common shares from the Company.
Under the SEDA, the Company can draw on YA Global's commitment by submitting draw down notices from time to time. Each draw down notice is subject to a maximum amount of $150,000 and certain other conditions. The purchase price of the newly issued shares will be priced at 92.5% of the relevant average daily price of the common shares for each trading day during the draw down pricing period. The shares issuable pursuant to the SEDA will be qualified by prospectus and, as such, not subject to a hold period. There are no restrictions on the Company's corporate finance or strategic activities during the term of the SEDA. The Company can terminate the SEDA at any time without the payment of any additional fees. A copy of the SEDA is available electronically at www.sedar.com.
Juan Vegarra, Chairman and CEO of Vena commented:
"As we review our five year corporate strategy it makes sense to have access to a financing vehicle with the ability to access strategic amounts of capital at our sole discretion when it is most convenient to the Company, thus placing Vena in a more comfortable position to react to opportunities with readily available and flexible capital, while continuing to review other finance related opportunities."
