Re: News Release - Wednesday, September 25, 2013 Title: Rare Element Resources Announces $8.0 Million Offering
September 25, 2013 - Lakewood, Colorado - Rare Element Resources Ltd. (the "Company") (NYSE MKT: REE and TSX: RES) today announced that it has received commitments from institutional investors to purchase US$8.0 million of its common shares and warrants in a registered direct offering in the United States with an additional US$4.0 million oversubscription right.
The Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement with the investors pursuant to which it agreed to sell an aggregate of 2,677,376 common shares and warrants to purchase up to 1,338,688 common shares. The price for each unit, consisting of one common share and a warrant to purchase 0.5 common shares, is $2.988, representing a 10% discount to the market price defined as the closing price as of September 24, 2013. The warrants will be exercisable at a price of $4.15 per share beginning six months following issuance and will expire three years from the date of issuance. The closing of the offering is expected to take place on or about September 27, 2013, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Proceeds from the offering will be used to advance engineering and metallurgical work as well as permitting on the Bear Lodge Project and for general corporate purposes.
The purchasers may also, within 60 days of the closing, elect to purchase up to, in the aggregate, an additional $4.0 million of common shares and warrants. The price for each additional unit (consisting of one common share and a warrant to purchase 0.5 common shares) will be 90% of a market price on the date of exercise of the additional subscription right, but in no event less than $2.49 per unit. The additional warrants would have an exercise price of 125% of the market price at the date of exercise of the additional subscription right, but not less than $3.46 per share.
