FISSION ENERGY CORP. ("Fission" or "the Company") (TSX-V: FIS) announces a non-brokered private placement financing to sell on a best efforts basis, up to $3.0 million in Common Share Units at a price of C$.30 per common share unit and up to $2.0 million in Flow-Through Common Share Units at a price of C$.35 per unit. Each Common Share Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at C$.40 for a period of two years. Each Flow-Through Common Share Unit consists of one flow-through common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. One full warrant purchases one common share at C$.45 for a period of two years.
A cash finder's fee of 8% of the gross proceeds raised in the offering may be paid and the Company may grant the finder a two year option to purchase shares at C$.30 per share based on 8% of the units sold in the offering.
