Ivanhoe has arranged an underwritten offering of common shares in its capital (the Common Shares). | ||||
5. | FULL DESCRIPTION OF MATERIAL CHANGE | |||
On June 23, 2004, Ivanhoe filed a preliminary short form prospectus in all provinces of Canada for an underwritten offering of Common Shares. On June 25, 2004, Ivanhoe entered into an agreement with underwriters (the Underwriters) to issue to the public, on a bought deal basis, 10,714,285 Common Shares at a price of Cdn.$7.00 per Common Share for gross proceeds of Cdn. $75,000,000.00. Ivanhoe also granted to the Underwriters an option to buy up to an additional 9,285,715 Common Shares at the same price at any time up to the date of filing of the final prospectus. Assuming the exercise in full of that option, gross proceeds of the offering would amount to Cdn.$140,000,0000. The financing is expected to close on or about July 8, 2004. | ||||
Ivanhoe has also granted the Underwriters an option to buy, at the offering price, up to an additional 15% of the Common Shares issued at the closing of the offering for a period of 30 days from such closing. |
