SECONDARY OFFERING AND INTENTION TO EXERCISE WARRANTS BY PAN AMERICAN SILVER
May 28, 2020, Vancouver, British Columbia – Maverix Metals Inc. (NYSE American & TSX: MMX) (the “Company” or “Maverix”) and Pan American Silver Corp. (NASDAQ & TSX: PAAS) (“Pan American”) announce that they have entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters led by Raymond James Ltd. and PI Financial Corp. (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which Pan American will undertake an overnight marketed public offering of 9,000,000 common shares of Maverix currently held by Pan American (the “Secondary Offering”). In addition, Pan American will grant the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up to an additional 15% of the number of shares of Maverix sold in the Secondary Offering for up to 30 days after the closing, on the same terms and conditions as the Secondary Offering.
Pan American currently owns, as of the date hereof, 27,583,500 common shares of Maverix, representing approximately 23.0% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Maverix, and 8,250,000 common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”).
Pan American has notified Maverix of its intention to exercise the Warrants upon closing of the Secondary Offering. Upon exercise, Maverix would receive proceeds of approximately US$15.6 million and upon completion of the Secondary Offering, Pan American would continue to own 26,833,500 common shares of Maverix, representing an approximately 21.0% ownership interest in Maverix, before exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full Pan American would own 25,483,500 common shares of Maverix, representing an approximately 19.9% ownership interest in Maverix.
Pan American has also agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to sell any common shares or other securities of Maverix for a period of 90 days from the closing of the Secondary Offering.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities being offered, nor may there be any sale of the securities being offered in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction.
The Secondary Offering will be made by way of a prospectus supplement to the Company’s existing U.S. registration statement on Form F‑10 (the “Registration Statement”) and Canadian short form base shelf prospectus (the “Base Shelf Prospectus”), each dated September 13, 2019. The prospectus supplement relating to the Secondary Offering will be filed with the securities commissions in each of the provinces of Canada (other than Québec) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The U.S. prospectus supplement (together with a related Registration Statement) is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and the Canadian prospectus supplement (together with the related Base Shelf Prospectus) is available on the SEDAR website maintained by the Canadian Securities Administrators at www.sedar.com. Alternatively, copies of the prospectus supplement relating to the Secondary Offering may be obtained, when available, from: Raymond James Ltd., by email at ecm-syndication@raymondjames.ca, and PI Financial Corp., by email at syndication@pifinancial.com.
