Cougar Metals provides an update on the funding agreement with the Australian Special Opportunity Fund, LP, an entity managed by New York based, The Lind Partners, LLC as previously announced on 6 June 2018. Pursuant to the funding agreement Cougar has to date received $800,000 (less $35,000 fee) from an issue of two tranche of convertible notes (with a combined face value of $960,000), together with an initial prepayment for shares of $50,000, which is now due to be settled. As previously announced, Cougar must issue shares to satisfy each prepayment calculated based on the volume weighted average share price of the Company. A floor price was previously agreed which limits the Company share purchase price by Lind to $0.005 per share. However due to the market conditions, the calculated purchase price to settle the initial prepayment is now below the floor price. Following negotiations between Lind and Cougar, both parties agreed to a full settlement of the initial prepayment by an issue of 20 million fully paid ordinary shares to Lind, with an effective share price of $0.0025 per share. While this effective share issue price is below the floor price previously disclosed to shareholders, the Cougar Directors believe this is in the best interests of the Company due to the following:- • having settled the prepayment in shares, Cougar can conserve cash • the amount of shares issued is relatively small; and • this agreement is a short term compromise due to the market condition, and Company management will revisit the funding arrangement if conditions persist.
